In this paper, a Kriging metamodel-based multi-objective optimization strategy in conjunction with an NSGA-II(non-dominated sorted genetic algorithm-II) has been employed to optimize the valve-plate shape of the axial piston pump utilizing 3D CFD simulations. The optimization process for minimum pressure ripple and maximum pump efficiency is composed of two steps; (1) CFD simulation of the piston pump operation with various combination of six parameters selected based on the optimization principle, and (2) applying a multi-objective optimization approach based on the NSGA-II using the CFD data set to evaluate the Pareto front. Our exploration shows that we can choose an optimal trade-off solution combination to reach a target efficiency of the axial piston pump with minimum pressure ripple.

With the increasing concerns on noise and vibration in hydraulic fluid power systems, it is important to find better way to reduce noise and vibration. In this study, the authors survey former researches on hose(viscoelastic tube) modeling in advance. And a summary of several existing methods for measuring the speed of sound in the fluid in pipes is presented. Their basic principles, advantages and limitations are compared. And The authors suggest a far simple identification procedure to obtain wave speed in hose by just using an experimental pressure data for the object tube with hose. In the new procedure, flow in hose is basically modeled by transfer matrix method, and wave speed in hose is obtained as data in frequency series. The wave speed in hose as data in frequency series will be used to compute the pressure pulsation attenuation in hydraulic pipe systems. The computed results are compared with the experimental ones, and the validity of the new procedure to obtain wave speed in hose is confirmed

This study presents an analytical model of an automotive steering hose containing tuner(flexible spiral metal tube) to reduce the ripple pressure induced by steering vane pump. The double-wall side branch composed in a steering hose containing tuner was analogically considered as a filter in a conduit. Specialized test equipment was manufactured for the estimation of speed of sound in a conduit and measurement of amplitude ratio between the propagated ripple pressures of inlet and outlet of the steering hose. Experimental data of entire frequency ranges can be obtained through the test once in short time. The results of three points' measurement method and cross-correlation method to estimate the speeds of sound in a hose, tuner, and side branch respectively reveal that cross-correlation method can be used practically. The results of simulation and experiment were so close, especially in the range of engine idling speed, that the proposed analytical model in this study was validated. Sensitivity analyses and experiments show that longer tuner is preferable, and that the positive-positive composition of the steering hoses containing tuner is superior to others to attenuate ripple pressure.

This paper describes independent phase BLDC motor with a maximum torque among BLDC motor used for electric propulsion system Independent phase BLDC motor has characteristic that phases of stator we independent electrically. This paper is modeling two type of 3 phases BLDC motors, one has Y-connection type and the other has independent type, and it shows simulation of them, compares its characteristics. As a result of simulation, phase voltage of independent 3 phase BLDC motor is higher than Y-connection three phase BLDC motor. When the stator resistance and inductance are stable, high phase voltage causes an increase in maximum phase current and an increases in it serially causes an increase of maximum torque. It is also found that the current pulsation of independent phase BLDC motor was decreased by controlling phase current of independent BLDC motor.

This study is focused on the development of a new muffler. A control valve installed in the exhaust system is operated by torsion springs, and its open angle is controlled automatically corresponding to the engine operating conditions. The experiments were done using an exhaust system simulator having the same pulsation wave frequency and similar pulsation propagation characteristics of a real exhaust system. The purpose of this study is to develop a new muffler system which has improved noise reduction quality and less power loss than conventional mufflers and electronic-control mufflers.

Axial piston pumps have been widely used as power sources for hydraulic systems, but studies on the fluid flow within the pump have been usually performed using 1-D analysis because of the difficulties in considering the fluid compressibility, high-speed revolution, variation of the flow rate, and complicated geometry. The goal of this study was to understand the hydraulic fluid flow within axial piston pumps by using the 3-D numerical method and the process of generating discharge pressure ripples. To improve the convergence and robustness of the simulation model, a grid system was constructed with hexahedron-type grids around the valve plate. Furthermore, we employed an empirical formula to describe the relationship between the oil density and pressure. The CFD (computational fluid dynamics) results compared well with the experimental data.

In this study, shape design and material selection were carried out for a two-stage pressure-reducing regulator to compensate for the shortcomings of a one-stage mechanical decompression regulator. The shape of the contact surface of the depressurization unit was considered, material was selected, and the shape was designed to compensate for the pulsation and slow response through the two-stage decompression and to solve the problem of high pressure deviation. In terms of airtightness, the deformation amount of TPU showed a small amount of displacement of up to 15.82%. Considering the fact that it is applicable to various hydrogen fuel supply systems by securing universality by applying electronic solenoids to the second pressure reduction, magnetic materials were selected. The hydrogen embrittlement and corrosion resistance were evaluated to verify the plating process. Surface corrosion did not occur in only the case of Cr plating. The elongation during the corrosion process was compared using a tensile test, and there was a difference within 2%.

High Voltage Pulsed Current Stimulation(HVPCS) and Microcurrent Electrical Neuromuscular Stimulation(MENS) have been used to promote the healing of decubitus ulcer and surgical wounds. The benefits of HVPCS and MENS are thought to include an inhibitive effect on bacterial growth. The purpose of this study was to compare the inhibitive effect of two different electrical stimulation techniques growth in vitro. Using agarose-based media, the two bacterial species Staphylococcus aureus, Esherichia coli - which are commonly isolated from open wounds were incubated in an incubator for 24 hours following exposure to HVPCS(400 V, 120 pps, $70{\mu}s$) and MENS($100{\mu}A$, 0.3 Hz). We then measured the zone of inhibition around each electrode. Both HVPCS and MENS produced an inhibitive effect on bacterial growth in this vitro study. However MENS was more effective than HVPCS.

A novel zero voltage and zero current switching (ZVZCS) full bridge (FB) PWM converter with a low output current ripple is proposed. The proposed circuit improve the demerits of the previously presented ZVBCS-FB-PWM converters[5-8] such as use of lossy components or additional active switches. A simple auxiliary circuit which includes neither lossy components nor active switches provides ZVZCS conditions to primary switches, ZVS for leading-leg switches and ZCS for lagging-leg switches. In addition, this proposed circuit reduces a output current ripple considerably. Many advantages including simple circuit topology, high efficiency, low cost and low current ripple make the new converter attractive far high power (> 1kW) applications.
