In this study, the design and verification of 6kW class lift-type vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) has been conducted using advanced CAE technique based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD), finite element method (FEM), and computational structural dynamics (CSD). Designed aerodynamic performance of the VAWT model is tested using unsteady CFD method. Designed structural safety is also tested through the evaluation of maximum induced stress level and resonance characteristics using FEM and CSD methods. It is importantly shown that the effect of master eccentricity due to rotational inertia needs to be carefully considered to additionally investigate dynamic stress and deformation level of the designed VAWT system.

Fluid dynamic bearings (FDBs) have been replacing ball bearings of the HDD spindle motor very rapidly. But there are several demerits of HDB, such as high friction torque, variable viscosity of the fluid lubricant depending on operating temperature, low stiffness, and etc. Eccentricity is one of the major parameters which affects the static and dynamic characteristics. As the static eccentricity is larger, the stiffness and the damping coefficients become bigger. But friction torque is relatively unaffected by the static eccentricity. This research proposes a new type of journal bearing with asymmetric journal grooves which results in better dynamic characteristics. The static and dynamic characteristics of the new journal bearing are investigated by solving the Reynolds' equation with FEM, and the transient analysis is performed to predict the dynamic behavior of rotor by solving the equations of motion of a HDD spindle system with Runge-Kutta method. The result shows that the proposed Journal bearings have much bigger stiffness and damping coefficients compared with the conventional symmetric ones. And consequently, it has smaller whirl radius and tilting angle.

This paper presents a finite element method to analyze the free and forced vibration of a hard disk drive (HDD) considering the flexibility of a spinning disk-spindle with fluid dynamic bearings (FDBs), an actuator with pivot bearings, an air bearing between head-disk interface and the base with complicated geometry. Finite element equation of each component is consistently derived with the satisfaction of the geometric compatibility of the internal boundary between each component. The spinning disk, hub and FDBs are modeled by annular sector elements, beam elements and stiffness and damping elements, respectively. The actuator am, E-block, suspension and base plate are modeled by tetrahedral elements. The pivot bearing in the actuator and the air bearing between head-disk interfaces are modeled by the stiffness element with five degrees of freedom and the axial stiffness, respectively. A global matrix equation obtained by assembling the finite element equations of each substructure is transformed to a state-space matrix-vector equation, and both damped natural frequencies and modal damping ratios are calculated by solving the associated eigenvalue problem with the restarted Arnoldi iteration method. Modal and shock testing are performed to show that the proposed method well predicts the vibration characteristics of a HDD.

포는 대체로 정확도와 최대 발사거리 및 최대 발사속도 등에 의해 그 성능 이 표현된다. 그 중에서도 최대 발사속도는 매우 중요한 인자로서 포의 주퇴 복좌 장치의 성능에 의해 직접적으로 영향을 받게 된다. 따라서 포의 최대 발사속도 향상을 위해서는 주퇴복좌 장치의 동특성 해석 능력을 확보하고, 그로부터 주퇴 장치의 설계 변경이 가능하도록 해야 한다. 한편, 주퇴복좌기 의 주퇴특성은 주퇴시 총주퇴저항력이 전주퇴장에 대해서 거의 일정해야만 포신에 전달되는 힘을 최소로 하면서 주퇴시간을 최소로 할 수 있으며 이러 한 설계 개념으로 주퇴복좌기를 설계한다. 그에 따라 주퇴복좌기는 그 내부 가 가변 오리피스 및 조절 로드로 이루어져 주퇴복좌기의 주퇴 저항력을 주 퇴속도 및 주퇴변위에 따라 변화시키도록 되어 있다. 따라서 주퇴복좌기는 필연적으로 강한 비선형 특성을 나타낸다. 이러한 주퇴복좌기를 모델링할 때 에 기존에는 주퇴복좌기내의 모든 유체역학적 요소를 고려하여 모델링하는 기법이 통용되어왔다. 그러나 이러한 모델링은 각 요소의 모델링 오차가 누 적될 위험이 있으므로 정확한 모델링을 보장할 수 없으며, 매우 복잡한 과정 을 거쳐야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 주퇴 완충기 시뮬레이터를 이용한 실 험에 따른 계의 파라미터 예측을 통하여 모델링하는 기법을 시도하여 보았 다.

This research investigates the electromechanical characteristics of a spindle motor in a free-falling mobile hard disk drive before unexpected shock. Electromechanical simulation includes a time-stepping finite element analysis of the magnetic field in a speed controlled brushless DC motor and dynamic analysis of the stationary and rotating part linked by the fluid dynamic bearing under the free-falling condition. Analysis results show that the dynamic characteristics of the rotating spindle system during free-falling state have an effect on the relative motion between the stationary and rotating part of HDD. It results from the variation of reaction force in the bearing area due to the gravity force exerted on the rotating part of HDD, and the free-falling condition can be detected by observing the signal of the spindle motor and disk-head interface without using an accelerometer.
