전기추력기는 화학식 추력기에 비해 비추력이 높아 인공위성의 자세제어, 궤도수정, 궤도천이를 포함한 행성 탐사활동 및 우주 임무수행을 위한 우주선의 엔진 등으로 다양하게 활용된다. 홀 추력기는 전기추력기 중 하나로 고리형 방전공간을 가진 고리형 추력기와 원통형 방전영역을 가진 원통형 추력기가 있으며, 원통형 추력기는 고리형에 비하여 넓은 방전공간으로 저전력 방전에 적합한 추력기이다. 또한, 저전력 추력기는 큐브셋(cubesat) 및 마이크로 위성(microsatellite)의 증가하는 수요에 따라 필요성이 증가하고 있으며, 활용도가 높아 다양하게 연구 및 개발되고 있다. 홀 추력기는 자기장과 전기장을 서로 수직되게 인가하여, 자화된 전자는 플라즈마 방전을 유지시키고 자화되지 않은 이온은 전기장 방향으로 가속되어 이온빔을 발생시킨다. 하지만, 저전력 소형 추력기는 작은 소모전력과 방전채널로 인한 성능 저하 및 자기장 구조 설계 등 많은 어려움들을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는, 약 50 W급의 소모전력을 바탕으로 영구자석을 이용한 저전력 플라즈마 추력기를 개발하였다. 방전 채널은 지름 15 mm, 길이 16 mm, 무게는 약 0.6 kg으로 원통형 구조의 채널로 제작되었으며, 약 1500-2000 G의 자기장 세기를 갖도록 설계하였다. 방전 기체는 제논을 사용하여 1-5 sccm영역에서 방전 특성을 살펴보았으며, 방전 전류는 0.02-0.4 A로 나타났다. 100-550 V영역에서 방전을 시도하였고, 채널길이를 16-24 mm 에서 약 1mN 급의 추력특성을 보였다. 본 발표에서, 홀 추력기의 제작 특성과 성능 및 플라즈마 특성에 대한 더 자세한 연구결과가 발표될 예정이다.

Recently it is strongly required on lower fuel consumption. lower exhaust emission, higher engine performance. and social demands in a spark ignition gasoline engine. In this study. the experimental engine used at test. it has been modified the lean burn gasoline engine. and used the programmable engine management system, and connected the controller circuit which is designed for the engine control. At the parametric study of the engine experiment, it has been controlled with fuel injection, ignition timing. swirl mode, equivalence ratio engine dynamometer load and speed as the important factors governing the engine performance adaptively. It has been found the combustion characteristics to overcome the hysteresis phenomena between normal and lean air-fuel mixing ranges. by mean of the look-up table set up the mapping values. at the optimum conditions during the engine operation. As the result, it is found that the strength of the swirl flow with the variation of engine speed and load is effective on combustion characteristics to reduce the bandwidth of the hysteresis regions. The results show that mass fraction burned and heat release rate pattern with crank angle are reduced much rather, and brake specific fuel consumption is also reduced simultaneously.

As worldwide concern stands on global warming and greenhouse gases from internal combustion engine, the interests in technologies for a highly efficient powertrain has been increased. Concurrently the investigation to improve the deteriorated NVH, a by-product of energy efficient powertrain, is conducted seriously. The NVH performance of a new type of active engine mount that offers increased advantages over a passive hydraulic mount is examined using a newly developed 6-DOF simulator. The simulator is in the shape of Hexapod Stewart Platform adopting LEMA, a new type of actuator which is patented and commercialized by ACT Inc,, the world wide leader in the design, development, and manufacture of high performance linear electro-magnetic actuators for active vibration control. The target vibration signals of an aimed vehicle at four engine mounts are measured and simulated by 6-DOF simulator at the laboratory. The resulting NVH performances of the new active mounting system at a vehicle and on a simulator are examined and compared. Even though the active mount performance of lab test demonstrates less effective than the result of a real vehicle test, vibration reduction is identified through the simulator.

Recently, unmanned systems have been studied and developed in various areas including aircrafts, automobiles and vessels. In addition, many researches about unmanned systems in Korea have been studying actively with the advancement of IT However, it is not satisfied with the result of the researches and developments. Bemuse of the reason we've here tried to make a very small USV which is a barge type. We applied the Great circle navigation calculation based on GPS to the autonomous navigation algorithm and used the LabVIEW 8.2 developed by NI corp. for programming The engine and rudder were controlled by pulse width modulation method. The engine system was composed of the DC motor and ESC(Electronic Speed Controller). It was also applied by the direct cooling system using DC motor pump. A very small USV was designed and made by ourself and it was verified the effectiveness of autonomous navigation algorithm through the tests at the sea.

한국의 자동차산업은 생산능력이 경제단위로 들어서고, 수출을 통해 선진국 자동차산체와 세계시 장에서 경합을 하지 않으면 안 될 성년기에 접어들고 있다. 따라서 경험적 강화를 위해서는 생 산단위의 증가 뿐만 아니라 자체기술개발능력도 향상해야 한다. 기술개발의 첫째 화제가 현재 외국으로부터 기술도입한 제품의 자체개발이 대상으로 된다는 것은 재론의 여지가 없다. 그러나, 앞으로 제품개발을 해 나가는데 수반되는 기술개발을 효과적으로 하기 위해서는, 선진자동차산 업의 기술개발동향과 Marketing차원에서 시장변활를 연밀히 분석, 검토함으로써 기술개발과제를 중점적으로 선택하고, 연구설비투자와 연구인력을 성별투입해야 할 것이다. 이런 관점에서 최 근의 자동차기술 개발동향을 개관하고 1980년대 후반의 개발동향을 전망해 보고자 한다. 자동차 제품기술은, 첫재 석유와 원재로, 부품, 노동력의 가격상승과 둘재 환경, 안전도, 연비면의 규제 강화, 셋째 사용자의 편이 안락한 문전의 추구라고 하는 세가지 주요인의 이호연관에 의해 그 개발방향이 결정된다고 할 수 있다. 현재, 미,일 자동차업체는, 가솔린 및 디젤 왕복내연기관 의 기존 동력원과 FF, FR 및 4WD의 기존구동방식을 유지하면서, 엔진 등 주요기능부품의 최적 제어와 운전자의 편이성향상 및 운전정보 제공을 위한 전자기술의 적용, 경량재질 및 세라믹스 등의 신소재 적용, 실용화, 그리고 유가상승에 대비한 대체연료의 개발연구를 주개발과제로 삼고 있으며, 이 주세는 80년대 후반까지 지속될 것으로 보여진다.

This paper reports the load factor logic design for a fly-by-wire helicopter flight envelope protection. As a helicopter is very complex system with a rotor, fuselage, engine, etc., there are many constraints on the flight region. Because of these constraints, pilots should consider them carefully and have a heavy workload, which causes controllability degradation. In this respect, automatic logic is needed to free the pilot from these considerations. As one of these logics, the flight envelope protection logic for the load factor of a FBW helicopter was designed. The flight to exceed the load factor is caused by an abrupt pitch cyclic stick change. In this scheme, the load factor limit logic was added between the pilot stick command block and pitch attitude command block. From the current load value, the available attitude range was calculated dynamically and simulated on the helicopter simulator model to verify the performance. A comparison of the simulation results at the hovering and forward speed region with and without applying the load limiting logic showed that the load factor limit was exceeded more than 20% when the logic was not applied, whereas with the load factor limit logic the load factor was within the limit. In conclusion, a dynamically allocated limitation logic to helicopter FBW controller was verified by simulation.

In general, transportation sources include both on-road vehicles and off-road equipment. Off-road vehicles have usually used diesel engines, which have the disadvantage of high NOx emission. Common rail direct injection (CRDI) and after-treatment systems have been applied to meet the exhaust gas emission regulations for diesel vehicles. In the present, agricultural machinery has satisfied the Tier 3 emission regulations by using waste gate turbocharger (WGT) and internal exhaust gas recirculation (EGR). In this paper, the combustion and emission characteristics of an EGR system applied to a 56kW off-road vehicle in non-road transient cycle (NRTC) mode have been investigated. The EGR map was made from foundation experiments determining the EGR duty for all engine operating conditions, and then this map was applied to the NRTC mode. Consequently, the NOx emission was reduced by the EGR system, and the Tier 4 interim emission regulations were satisfied by using both the EGR system and an after-treatment system.
