This paper provides the effects on the leakage characteristics of the surface roughness of a valve stem in LPG automotive. The valve stem seal is to stop an oil leakage through a sealing gap between a valve stem and a valve stem seal. The sealing performance of two components is related to a leak safety and a long life of a valve stem and a valve stem seal. The experimental results show that the optimal surface roughness of a valve stem is to recommend as $0.4{\sim}0.5{\mu}m$ in a centerline average roughness, Ra and a uniformly distributed profile of the roughness. Basically the smooth surface and uniform profiles of the roughness may reduce an oil leakage between a valve stem and a valve stem seal.

Developed is the new gas-solid flow ball valve where air injection purging concept is applied for the control and the reduction of particle fouling. CFD analyses are conducted for investigating the interaction between gas-sold and air injection streams and the fouling phenomena in valve, and the analysis results are reflected in the design of valve geometry and air injection condition. Through the actual tests on designed ball valve, the present valve is shown to be superior in fouling reduction.

Camshaft engines designed for constant engine loads have been applied to existing marine diesel engines. However, due to environmental regulations, electro-hydraulic servo mechanisms, which have a loaddependent cylinder liner jacket water cooling system (LDCL-JWCS), have been recently developed to individually control the temperature of the cylinders depending on the engine load. In this system, the 3-way valve, which prevents low temperature corrosion by reducing the temperature difference between the upper and lower parts of the cylinder, has been employed, but the outlet mass flow of the existing valve is low. In this study, the design of the internal shape of the 3-way valve was performed by analyzing the effects of the design parameters of the valve shape on the performance (i.e., the outlet mass flow rate and temperature). The proposed model was verified by comparing its performance to that of existing marine diesel engine valves.

A LNG safety valve functions to control a constant pressure inside the LNG line of transportation, and the flow through it accompanies with noise and vibration which affect adversely on the system. The present study aims at understanding the flow physics of LNG safety valve for a practical design of LNG safety valve. A computational work using the two-dimensional, axisymmetric, compressible, Navier-Stokes equations is carried out to simulate the gas flow through the LNG safety valve, and compared with the theoretical results. It is found that the shape of valve sheet and the gap size are the key parameters in determining the gas dynamic forces on the valve sheet, and there exists a distance between nozzle exit and valve sheet in which the thrust coefficient at the valve sheet increases abruptly.

This paper deals with a fuel metering unit (referred to as FMU) for air breathing engine. The proposed FMU consists of a constant pressure drop valve and a metering valve, both of which are controlled by servovalve. Linear analysis derived from a nonlinear mathematical model of FMU is carried out to find major parameters on the system performance. Numerical results using established model of FMU were in good agreement with the experimental results. It is also shown that the system stability is improved by reducing the constant pressure drop at metering valve and applying the triangular orifice to constant-pressure-drop valve through the simulation and experiments.

고도의 진공 환경을 요구하는 반도체 생산 라인에 적용되는 고진공 펌프는 주로 복합 분자펌프와 크라이오 펌프가 사용되고 있다. 이 중 크라이오 펌프는 극저온으로 냉각되는 냉각판에 기체 분자를 응축 또는 흡착시켜 기체를 제거하는 방식으로 복합 분자 펌프로 무게가 가볍고 증발 온도가 낮은 네온, 수소, 헬륨 기체 제거에 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 현재 상용화된 크라이오 펌프에 적용되는 GM 극저온 냉동기를 대체하기 위한 2단 GM형 맥동관 냉동기를 개발하여 기초 성능 시험을 수행하였다. 1단과 2단 모두 U-자형 형상으로 제작되었으며, 압력과 질량 유동 사이의 위상 조절을 위하여 오리피스 밸브와 이중 유입 밸브를 사용하였다. 개발된 맥동관 냉동기의 냉각 성능 목표는 1단(80 K)과 2단(20 K)에서 각각 45 W와 5 W이다. 기초 시험에서는 위상 조절용 밸브들의 개도와 작동 조건에 대한 냉각 특성과 부하 특성 시험을 수행하였다. 특히, 본 연구에서는 로터리 밸브 및 위상 조절 기구의 배치로 인해 고온부 형상이 복잡한 맥동관 냉동기를 크라이오 펌프로의 적용 편의성을 위하여 고온부 외형 구조를 단순화하였으며, 개발된 맥동관 냉동기와 기존에 크라이오 펌프에 적용되는 GM 극저온 냉동기를 비교, 고찰하였다.

In the leakage test of a Main Oxidizer shut-off valve, gas leakage was found on the middle flange with a metal conical seal. The structural analysis was performed for three models with different numbers of bolts and flange shapes and then one model was selected in consideration of the minimum axial gap deformation as well as the weight increment due to the change of flange shapes. Experimental leakage tests for the simulated flanges of the selected model has resulted in no gas leakage, and consequently the structural analysis method for the design of the middle flanges has proved feasible.
