An experimental study on pumping characteristics of various turbo-type drag pumps is purformed. The inlet pressures are measured for various outlet pressures of the test pump. The maximum compression ratios for nitrogen are 100,000(Disk-type drag pump+ turbo molecular pump), 10000(Helical-type drag pump+turbo molecular pump), 850 (Helical-type drag pump), 100(disk-type drag pump).

인공위성이 임무를 수행하는 우주환경은 지상 환경과 달리 고진공 및 극저온의 극한환경으로 지상에서는 제대로 작동하는 것으로 관찰되더라도 우주환경에서는 예상하지 못한 기능장애를 일으켜 위성의 성능에 치명적인 영향을 미치기도 한다. 이에 10-5 torr 이하의 고진공과 -180$^{\circ}C$ 이하의 극저온 환경을지상에서 모사하여 위성체의 안정성 및 신뢰성을 시험한다. 시험에는 열진공챔버라고 불리는 우주환경모사기가 사용이 되며, 기본적으로 챔버 내부 진공형성이 중요하다. 우주환경의 모사를 위해 먼저 저진공펌프로 10-2 Torr 의 저진공을 형성한 후 Turbo-molecular pump 및 Cryopump를 이용하여 10-5 Torr 이하의 고진공을 형성하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 기존 우주환경모사기에 부착된 oil type rotary pump 및 구형 turbo-molecular pump의 교체 과정을 기술한다. 특히, 저진공펌프의 경우는 챔버 내부로의 oil 역류로 인한 오염 문제를 방지하기 위하여 dry type의 펌프가 설치되었다.

Vacuum facility is required for high altitude space environment test to develop satellites or space launch vehicles. We, at Chungnam, National University, developed turbo molecular pump vacuum test facility up to $1.0{\times}10-6$ torr to simulate 200 km altitude environment. In this paper, we present some preliminary vacuum performance test results.

We analyzed the destruction patterns of a turbo-molecular pump (TMP) resulting from its sudden exposure of a foreline to the atmospheric pressure due to a destruction of the foreline connecting clamp of an ICP dry etcher for 300 mm wafers during high-vacuum operation ($5{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr). Unlike in the case of view port's breakage, the TMP's rotor module was crashed inside the chamber. The primary damage resulted from the collision of the blades and stators, and the secondary damage resulted from the breaking of the rotor - driving shaft assembly. The fixing screws of the rotor and axial shaft were bent and broken when the TMP controller output the maximum current even after the crash event. Electrical power consumption analysis of the TMP power controller confirmed it. The stress distributions were analyzed by a finite element method using CFD-ACE+ multi physics software. Rotating inertia of each parts and kinetic energies were calculated as well. 68% of the rotational kinetic energy is deposited by the rotor - shaft module.

One of the obstacles for a magnetic bearing to be used in the wide range of industrial applications is the failure modes associated with magnetic bearings, which we don't expect for conventional passive bearings. These failure modes include electric power outage, power amplifier faults, position sensor faults, and the malfunction of controllers. Fault-tolerant magnetic bearing systems have been proposed so that the system can operate in spite of some faults in the system. In this paper, we designed and implemented a fault-tolerant magnetic bearing system for a turbo-molecular vacuum pump. The system can cope with the actuator/amplifier faults as well as the faults in position sensors, which are the two major fault modes in a magnetic bearing system.

Turbo-type molecular drag pumps ( MDPs ) are used in the liquid crystal display ( LCD ), semiconductor and other thin film industries. Siegbahn ( disk-type ) molecular drag pumps are used as high-pressure stages in the hybrid-type turbomolecular pumps, where they can operate in the viscous, the transition and the free molecular flow regime. In this study is performed to investigate the pumping characteristics of three-stage disk-type molecular drag pump ( DTDP ) in the molecular transition flow region. The experiments are measured using five vacuum pressure gauges in the positions for rotors of DTDP. The test is performed with nitrogen gas ( $N_2$ ).

A Non-Evaporable Getter(NEG) pump was fabricated using Zr-V-Fe alloy modules to obtain $10^{-9}$ Pa range pressures. Pumping performances and activation characteristics were investigated and the pumping speeds for hydrogen, deuterium and carbon monoxide gases of the NEG pump were measured. And hydrogen desorption characteristics were examined during activation at $450^{\circ}C$. Futhermore the vacuum performance was compared with those of other high vacuum pumps as turbo-molecular pump, sputter-ion pump, and cryo pump by analyzing the residual gases of the system.
