The major interest of this paper is how the spilled oil over the sea is dispersed into water column especially under the shear and turbulence such as breaking wave. Two hydraulic experiments were conducted to investigate the oil stick break-up characteristics into small and large droplets under the variation of velocity shear and breaking waves. From the experiments in the shear generator and the wave flume, small droplets which have diameters of tens to hundreds of micrometers were uniformly distributed throughout the whole control volume as time goes by. In addition, it can be seen that the weathered spilled oil has a different break-up mechanism from fresh spilled oil.

The proceeding bearings of marine diesel engine are affected by dynamic loads from the cylinder gas pressure and the inertia force from the crank mechanism. Oil film must support the load of the shaft and it also must protect the proceeding and the bearings from damage. This study uses Goenka's new curve fit to carry out the theoretical analysis of oil film in proceeding bearings for MAN B&W 12K90MC-C and Hyundai Heavy Industry Co., Ltd HiMSEN H21/32 Engine. The applied engine's analysis results show the behavior of the proceedings in main and crank pin bearings. The results of this study will be the proper criteria for the proceeding bearings design and be available for development of the new technology in the proceeding bearing and for the high strength lining coating.

Gears are critical elements in automobiles, and their use as power transmitting machine elements in engineering applications is quite extensive. In the areas of contact between gear teeth, the condition of a gear is likely to deteriorate due to contact fatigue, wear, material defects, lubrication failure, etc. Thus, it is necessary to monitor its condition to ensure smooth power transmission. Gear teeth deterioration causes failures such as abrasive wear, scuffing, pitting, and spalling. These failures lead to a higher level of vibration signals in the gear system. This paper presents the results of an experiment on the surface fatigue wear of a spur gear system. The correlation between the estimated specific film thickness, statistical parameter of the vibration signals, and Stribeck curve was considered in this study.

The tilting pad journal bearing has widely used to support high pressure/high rotating turbine rotors owing to their inherent dynamic stability characteristics. However, fatigue damages in the upper unlcaded pads and the break of locking pins etc. by pad spragging were continuously taken place in the actual steam turbines. The purpose of this paper is to develope a new bearing model that can prevent bearing damage problem effectively by pad spragging in a tilting pad journal bearing. A new bearing model which has a wedged groove is suggested from the studies of spragging mechanism performed by previously research works. The spragging characteristics of the upper unloaded pad are studied experimentally in order to verify the reliability of a new bearing model. It can be known that the phenomenon of pad spragging nearly does not occur in the new bearing model under the various experimental conditions. And it is observed that any kinds of bearing failures by pad spragging does not detect in the application of actual steam turbines.

탄성유체윤활 (elastohydrodynamic lubrication : EHL)이론은 구름 베어링, 기어 및 캠기구 등과 같이 집중 하중을 받는 기계 요소에서의 윤활 현상을 설명하는 이론으로서, 윤활부분에서 금속 접촉이 발생하지 않도록 기계요소를 설계하기 위하여 필요한 최소유막두께를 결정하는 데 사용된다. 그리이스는 대표적인 윤활제로서 구름 베어링의 윤활에 있어서 중요한 위치를 점하고 있다. 현재 집중 하중을 받는 기계 요소의 윤활에는 윤활 구조의 간편화, 보수의 용이성, 먼지나 이물의 침입 방지 등에 유리한 그리이스 윤활의 사용이 확대되고 있다. 현재 전동기, 가정용 전기기기, 측정기 등에 쓰이는 구름 베어링의 경우는 거의 전량 그리이스 윤활이 사용되고 있다. 지금까지의 연구는 유동특성상의 복잡성 때문에 무한장 선접촉 등온 EHL 문제에 대한 해석이었고, 아직까지는 그리이스 윤활 TEHL 해석에 관한 연구는 발표된 바 없다. 본 연구에는 Herschel-Bulkley 모델 그리이스 EHL문제를 열탄성유체윤활해석하여 보다 정확한 접촉부의 압력분포와 유막형상을 예측하고자 한다.

Many research of elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) has been performed under the condition of steady state loading. However, mechanical elements undergo severe high loads that are in the fluctuating modes of frequency and amplitude. Conventional numerical method for the circular contact of EHL study has the difficulty in making the film thickness and pressure of EHL converged in high loads of steady state as well as fluctuating loading conditions. In this work, multigrid multilevel method are used for the stable convergence of film pressure and thickness under the conditions of high as well as varying loads, and very stable solutions of film behaviors with elastic deformation are obtained. Several results of dynamic loading condition are shown and compared with those of steady state condition in the aspects of circular EHL film thickness and pressure.

안정성과 진동억제 특성이 요구되는 터어빈이나 모터등의 고속 회전기계에서는 틸팅-패드 저어널 베어링이 많이 사용되고 있다. 이는 틸팅-패드 저어널 베어링에서는 패드가 피봇이나 로울러로 지지되어 있으므로 윤활유막에서 발생하는 압력의 합력중심이 항상 이 지지점을 지나게 되어 베어링의 안정특성이 향상되기 때문이다. 틸팅-패드 저어널 베어링은 추력 베어링과 같이 불연속적인 윤활면을 갖는다. 그러므로 베어링의 입구부 선단에서 공급되는 윤활유의 충돌로 인한 압력격변이 일어나는데 이때 패드 입구부에서 발생하는 압력을 선단압력이라 한다. 이러한 선단압력으로 인한 베어링의 성능변화에 관한 연구는 주로 추력 베어링에 대하여 이론 및 실험적으로 수행 되어져 왔으며 그 결과들은 선단압력이 베어링의 성능에 미치는 영향을 무시할 수 없음을 보여주고 있다. 그러나 아직도 선단압력의 영향이 제대로 파악되고 있지 못하며, 특히 틸팅-패드 저어널 베어링에서 선단압력의 영향을 조사한 연구는 많이 부족한 실정이다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 유한폭 틸팅-패드 저어널 베어링을 모델화한 실험장치를 설계 제작하여 선단압력을 포함한 유막내의 압력분포 및 유막두께를 연속적으로 측정함으로써 틸팅-패드 저어널 베어링의 성능에 미치는 선단압력의 영향을 실험적으로 조사하기로 한다.

Bearings of marine engines are operated under severe conditions because of dynamic load and low sliding speed. This paper deals with lubrication analysis of a crank pin bearing for a marine diesel engine. Journal center locus and oil film thickness are compared of crank pin bearing. In the past researches, journal bearings have been studied only about the surface of bearing. In addition to this conventional research, this paper analyzes the effect of roundness error of a journal and a bearing on the minimum film thickness. Numerical analysis has been studied by using Reynolds equation and also Half-Sommerfeld condition is applied as boundary condition. Futhermore, this study investigates the effect of roundness error change on the minimum film thickness. The results demonstrate that the bigger amplitude of roundness error yields, the lower minimum oil film thickness is. In comparison to previous research considered a journal and a bearing individually, the results considering a journal and a bearing together show that amplitude of roundness error of journal has very little effect on the minimum oil film thickness.

In this paper, we propose a microwave radiometer for remote sensing of oil spills on the water surface. In order to achieve the development aim of the measurement accuracy within 0.2 mm for oil slicks of 0~4 mm thickness, the requirements of the microwave radiometer and the specifications of its receiver are drawn. From these requirements and specifications, the receiver with high gain, high sensitivity is designed and implemented. The receiver has the bandwidth of 58 MHz, the system gain of 47.3 dB and the sensitivity of 0.46 K at 10.65 GHz. The processes of design and implementation of the receiver are described in this paper. The effectiveness of the proposed microwave radiometer in the measurement of oil slicks is demonstrated experimentally. The results show the microwave radiometer can detect the oil slicks for 0~5 mm thickness within the accuracy of 0.13 mm successfully.

The tribological properties of eight different liquid crystals were investigated in a concentrated point contact device and a ball-on-flat contact. For comparison, the same tests were also performed with commercial greases and the corresponding base oils. Under the fully flooded conditions studied, liquid crystals in a concentrated point contact showed lower friction than commercial greases and greater film thickness dependence on rolling speed than grease base oils or greases. Test results also showed that the film thickness and friction were little influenced by the composition of the examined liquid crystals.
