The typical hydraulic hoisting system of the rack-bar type sluice gate is composed of a hydraulic supply unit using an uni-directional pump, a direction control valve, a hydraulic motor, a counter balance valve, and flow control valves. Here, the hydrostatic transmission is applied to the hoisting system of rack-bar type sluice gate to simplify the operation of gate such that the upward and downward direction of gate is simply controlled by the direction of pump rotation. The new hydraulic hoisting system is composed of a bi-directional pump, a hydraulic motor, two counter balance valves, two check valves, two pilot-operated check valves, two relief valves and a shuttle valve. The characteristics of a suggested system are analyzed by computer simulations.

The purpose of this study is to find the effective dynamic characteristics of an improved pneumatic cushion cylinder with a spring type needle valve. The dynamic model represented the peak pressure control method when the pneumatic cushion cylinder is moving forward or backward in the horizontal direction. It was found from the simulation results that the peak pressure in the cushion chamber is affected by the spring, which helps to understand the performance of the pneumatic cushion cylinder and to improve or design a better cushion needle valve component. From the simulation results, the stability of pneumatic cushion cylinder with a spring type needle valve was superior and its cushion capability was also better than that without the spring.

This paper deals with the issue of position tracking control of a clamp-cylinder for injection moulding machine with electric-hydrostatic drives. A fixed displacement pump is utilized in combination with AC motor in order to directly control a clamp-cylinder. A clamp-cylinder may be required to operate under a variety of operating conditions. Therefore, robust control performance is important in position tracking control applications. In order to accommodate mismatches between the real plant and the model used for controller design, discrete-time sliding mode control is developed by combining a velocity feedforward loop. From tracking control experiments, it is shown that significant reduction in position tracking error is achieved through the use of sliding mode control.

This study presents an analytical model of hydraulic clutch system of a power shift transmission to analyze pressure modulation characteristics. A typical hydraulic clutch system was modeled by using AMESim in which the parameters of major components were measured for simulation. Test apparatus was established using the components of power shift and power shuttle clutches with instrumental equipment. The results of simulation and experiment were so close that the proposed analytical model in this study was validated. However the cylinder model analogized clutch dynamics need to be improved in future study. The effects of parameters of orifice diameter, accumulator stroke and oil temperature on pressure modulation were analyzed respectively. The results of parameter sensitivity analysis show that modulation time and set pressure can be easily adjusted by changing parameter values. It is also found that the hydraulic clutch system used in this study is so susceptible to oil temperature that cooling equipment is necessary.

In this paper, a hydropneumatic modeling and dynamic analysis of a heavy truck semi-active cabin air suspension system is presented. Semi-active cabin air suspension system improves driver's ride comfort by controlling the damping characteristics in accordance with driving situation. So it can reduce vibration between truck frame and cabin. Semi-active cabin air suspension system is consist of air spring, leveling valve and CDC shock absorber, and full cabin system are mathematically modelled using AMESim software. Simulation results of components and full cabin system are compared with experimental data of components and test results of a cabin using 6 axis simulation table. It is found that the simulation results are in good agreements with test results, and the hydropneumatic model can be used well to predict dynamic characterics of heavy truck semi-active cabin air suspension system.

한국항공우주연구원은 액체추진기관 시스템을 이용한 3단형과학로켓(이하 KSR-III)을 국내 최초로 개발하여 비행시험을 수행하였다. 액체추진기관 로켓의 비행시험을 위해서는 이전의 고체 추진기관을 이용한 과학로켓 1, 2와는 달리 비행시험 조건에 부합하게 액체추진제 및 가압제 등을 공급하는 지상설비가 필요하다. 이에 한국항공우주연구원은 독자적으로 비행시험에 필요한 제반 설비를 갖춘 발사장을 구축하였다. KSR-III는 압축 헬륨가스(GHe)를 이용하여 연료(Jet A-1)와 산화제(LOx)를 가압하여 추력을 얻는 액체추진기관 시스템이다. 따라서 발사장에서의 지상공급설비는 유공압 설비와 발사시나리오에 따라 해당 부품을 제어하고 자료를 저장하는 제어/계측 설비 및 기타설비들로 구성되어 있다. 지상공급설비 중 유공압 설비는 LOx의 저장 및 기체 내 산화제 탱크의 충전을 위한 산화제 공급설비, Jet A-1의 저장 및 기체 내 연료 탱크의 충전을 위한 연료 공급 설비, 지상설비용 밸브구동 및 기체 내부 퍼지 등에 필요한 질소($N_2$)를 저장/공급하는 설비, 기체내부 밸브 구동 및 가압제로 사용되는 기체헬륨(He)을 저장/공급하는 설비들로 구성되어 있다. 이러한 구축된 공급설비는 기능시험, 연계시험 등의 각종 입증시험을 통해 그 성능을 검증한 후 단인증모델(SQTM)을 이용하여 발사 시나리오에 따른 추진제 공급능력을 입증한 후 KSR-III의 비행시험을 성공적으로 수행하였다. 수행된 연구결과는 향후 건설되어질 우주센터내의 발사장 기반설비 설계의 기초 자료로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

An experimental apparatus has been designed and prepared in order to measure a pressure loss coefficient of hydropneumatic components, which is an important parameter in a hydropneumatic system Blow-down system has been adopted for the experimental apparatu to meet the high flow energy requirement as well as the apparatus safety. Especially, pressure loss coefficient measurements of pyrostarter filters have been performed and the pressure loss coefficient, K of CQSF has been experimentally acquired. Then it is shown that the turbine inlet pressure $p_2$, which is predicted from the measured K, is in accord with the results of combustion tests. Moreover, the relation between K and combustion pressure $p_0$ has been presented and it is disclosed that the relation accords well with the results of combustion tests. It is anticipated that K of a filter could play a role in PS size reduction by rising up the combustion pressure resulting in increasing the burning rate of solid propellant.
