The influence of the tip clearance upon the cavitation inception were investigated by experiments for ducted rotors having different tip clearances The axial and tangential mean velocities around the ducted rotors were measured using an L.D.V. system to investigate the correlation between tip vertex cavitation inception and hub vortex cavitation. Observation results for tip vortex cavitation and hub vortex cavitation show good agreement in trend with the analysis results of velocity measurement. An optimum tip clearance for ducted rotor was selected to delay the tip vortex cavitation.

Performance test of the 30-ton class liquid rocket engine turbopump turbine has been conducted using high pressure cold air. Overall performance of the two kinds of turbine rotors - rotor with knife-edged L.E blades and with rounded L.E blades - has been measured for various rotational speed and turbine pressure ratio. The effect of rotational speed and turbine pressure ratio on the turbine axial force behavior also has been measured in parallel. Test results have revealed that the efficiency of knife edged L.E. turbine is a little bit higher than that of rounded L.E. turbine. The axial force of the turbine varied linearly with respect to rotational speed and its magnitude largely depended on turbine pressure ratio.

This paper describes an efficient and robust optimization method for helicopter rotor airfoil design in forward flight. Navier-Stokes analysis was employed to compute the dynamic response of an airfoil, which simulates the unsteady rotor flow-field in forward flight. The optimization system consists of two categories; Response Surface Method to construct the response surface model based on D-optimal 3-level factorial design, and Genetic Algorithm to obtain the optimum solution of a defined objective function including penalty terms of constraints. The influence of design variables and their interactions on the aerodynamic performance was examined through the optimization process.

우리는 이전 논문을 통해 Air blower용 모터에서 널리 사용되고 있는 단상 유도기를 기존의 분포 권선 방식에서 벗어나 집중 권선 방식을 사용하여 설계한 결과 생산 공정의 단계를 줄이고 많은 생산 비용을 줄일 수 있었다. 또한 집중 권선형에서 발생할 수 있는 고조파 문제를 로터의 skew와 overlap 권선 방식을 이용하여 해결 할 수 있음을 증명하였다. 그러나 이러한 이점에도 불구하고 시제품의 특성을 측정한 결과 집중 권선형 모터의 자계 불균형 때문에 기존 분포권 모터에 비해 소음과 진동 특성이 좋지 않은 결과를 보였다. 이에 본 논문에서는 소음과 진동 특성을 고려하여 기존의 기동 및 정격 토크 특성을 유지하면서 토크 리플을 저감할 수 있는 방법을 로터의 Skew 각도 영향, 권선 사양 및 스테이터 및 로터 형상 등을 고려하여 새롭게 설계하였고 그 결과를 제시하였다.

An unsteady numerical simulation method for an autorotating rotor in forward flight was developed. The flapping and rotational equations of motion of autorotation are continuously integrated for given time steps, meanwhile the induced velocity field at disc plane is obtained by the dynamic inflow theory embodying the unteadiness. The transitions from arbitrary initial states to equilibrium states were simulated. Steady autorotations as numerical solutions of equations were predicted by using two sources of blade airfoil data. The simulations using airfoil data which were obtained by a two dimensional Navier-Stokes solver in terms of angles of attack and Reynolds numbers have shown good agreements with wind tunnel experimental results.

A comfortable indoor environment is important considering that many hours are spent in residential or office space. A humidifier is used to control the indoor humidity. In particular, an element type humidifier has the advantage of a simple structure and low energy consumption. Two types of humidifiers - stationary or rotor - are commonly used for residential purposes. In this study, performance optimization was conducted for a rotor-type humidifying element used in a residential humidifier. The optimization included the rotation speed, water submersion depth, etc. The test range consisted of an open area to the air from 57 to 90%, rotation speed from 0.2 to 2.0 rpm, frontal air velocity from 0.5 to 2.5 m/s. The results showed that the optimal open area to air was 70%. On the other hand, the effects of the rotation speed on the moisture transfer rate was negligible. On the other hand, the pressure drop increased with increasing rotation speed. As the frontal air velocity increased, both the moisture transfer rate and pressure drop increased. The humidification capacity of the present element was 0.08 ~ 0.31 kg/hr. A comparison of the data with the theoretical results was made.

로터-베어링축계는 증기및 가스터빈, 터보 발전기, 압축기등 거의 모든 산업 기계류에서 동력 전달의 기본 도구로써 사용되고 있다. 즉 회전에 의한 동력 의전달은 비교적 간단히 대용량의 동력을 효율적으로 전달할 수 있다. 이에 따라 회전기계류에 대한 연구는 산업 혁명 이후 꾸준히 발전되어 온바, 특히 근래에 들어와 산업기계류의 경쟁이 치열하여짐에 따라 산업기계류의 고정 밀화, 고속화, 고신뢰화 요구가 증대하고 있는 현실을 비추어 볼때, 산업 기 계류의 근간을 이루고 있는 로터-베어링 축계의 안정성을 포함한 진동에 관 한 문제는 회전기계류 설계의 주요 기술로써 연구.개발의 필요성이 매우 높 다 하겠다. 회전축계 진동 관련 연구는 두 분야로 대별될 수 있는데 언밸런 스(Unbalance)에 의한 Synchronous진동과 여러가지 원인에 의해 계의 불안 정성을 유발시키는 Nonsynchronous진동으로 나눌 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이들 연구의 기본이 되는 회전축-베어링계 동특성 해석 프로그램을 개발하 였다. 여러가지 방법이 있으나 여기서는 Holzer가 비틀림 진동에 적용하고, Mykiestad(2)와 Prohl(3)에 의하여 회전축의 횡 진동에 적용된 이후 Lund(4) 등에 의하여 베어링의 영향등이 첨가된 전달 매트릭스 (Transfer Matrix) 방 법을 이용하여 임계속도(Critical Speed), 모우드 형태(Mode shapes)를 예측 하고 불안정 판정(Instability Criteria)등을 할 수 있는 프로그램을 개발하였 다. 특히 Murphy(1)의 다항식 방법(Polynomial Method)에 기본을 두어 기존 의 전달 매트릭스가 가지고 있던 반복, 수렴 시간 문제와 빠뜨리는 임계속도 예측에 대한 개선을 이루었으며 기존 논문과 실험 결과와의 비교 검토를 통 하여 개발된 프로그램의 신뢰성을 검토하였다. 특히, 각종 회전 기계의 소형 화, 경량화 추세에 따라 지반이나 케이싱이 경량이거나 유연하여 회전축과 동적으로 연성된 경우 회전축-베어링-지반으로 이루어진 2중구조의 회전축 계 동특성을 해석할 수 있는 프로그램을 개발하므로서 회전 기계류의 진동 전반에 걸친 문제점에 대한 그 원인과 현상을 명확히 분석하여 국내의 전기 계류의 보다 신뢰성있는 설계 및 제작자료를 확보하는데 기여할 수 있게 하 였다.

In recent times, turbomolecular pumps (TMPs) have been used frequently to generate and maintain high and clean vacuum. Because of the high-speed rotation of the rotor, its structural safety should be treated as the first design concern. This paper presents the structural analysis and optimization of rotor blades of a TMP. To increase the numerical efficiency in the finite element modeling and analysis, the P-method provided in Pro/ENGINEER was used for simulation. The structural responses for several types of rotor blades were investigated, and the effects of the blade angle, blade length, and round size are thoroughly studied for each type of TMP blade. In addition, structural optimization to reduce and even the maximum stress at each stage of the TMP by changing the size of rounds between the blade and the hub was performed very successfully by using the P-method.

In this study, 3-dimensional URANS simulation was performed to analyze the effect of the nozzle-rotor axial gap spacing of a supersonic impulse turbine on turbine performance. The computations were conducted for four different axial gap cases corresponding to about 6%, 10%, 20% and 30% of the blade height, respectively. The results show a good agreement with previous studies and the turbine efficiency decreases drastically in certain range. It is examined that the turbine performance characteristics could change depending on the influence of leading edge shock to the nozzle outlet. It is also found that the entropy rise distributions along the span differ from each other.

In this paper, we propose a PID controller for altitude control of quadrotor system with experimental analysis. The Routh-Hurwitz test is applied to analyze the system to which our proposed controller is applied. We also summarize experimental data in which the gain values of kP, kI, and kD are changed using MATLAB and Simulink based on mathematical modeling of the quadrotor system. Based on the summarized experimental data, we analyze the effect of changes in each gain values (k_P, k_I, k_D) of PID controller on altitude control of quadrotor, and present an algorithm for tuning the PID controller gain values. The PID controller with the proposed algorithm is applied to AR.Drone system, subsequently and result are verifised through experiments.
