A steady prediction method of dynamic stability derivatives is presented in the unified framework of the unsteady Euler equations. New approach does not require any modification of the governing equations except addition of non-inertial force terms. The present methods are applied to compute the pitch-damping coefficients using the lunar coning and the lunar helical motions in the Cartesian coordinate frame. The results for the ANSR and the Basic Finner are in good agreement with the PNS data, range data, and the results using the unsteady prediction method. The results show that the steady approach using the unified governing equations in the Cartesian coordinate frame can be successfully applied to predict the pitch-damping coefficients.

We have been developing an underwater robot for harbour construction using a parallel mechanism The robot is attached to the rope of a crane, which curries a large stone into the undersea The robot's yaw and pitch are controlled by hydraulic cylinders but its roll is uncontrollable. We mount propellers in both side of the robot to generate the roll motion This paper studies on the control for the roll motion of a underwater robot. A gyro-sensor is used to measure the angle in a roll motion We develop the dynamic model to describe the robot's roll motion by a second order non-linear system and identify the model parameters by recursive least square and adaptive identifier. PD control, recursive model based control and adaptive model based control are applied with the dynamic model which computes the control input to compensate disturbances. This paper introduces the underwater robot system and presents the simulated and experimental results of the proposed controller.

This paper presents computations of the dynamic derivatives of three dimensional flight vehicle configurations using CFD. The pitch dynamic derivatives are computed from the pitch sinusoidal motion, while the roll damping is computed based on steady state calculation using a non-inertial frame method. The Basic Finner and the SDM(Standard Dynamic Model) are chosen for the benchmark tests against other numerical and experimental results. For the flow calculations, a 3-D Euler solver that can be run both on the non-inertial frame and on the inertial frame is developed. A dual-time stepping method is applied for the unsteady time accurate simulations. A good agreement of pitch-roll dynamic derivatives with previously published numerical results and the experimental results is observed.

고속 선박을 추진하는 한 방법으로 널리 사용되는 물분사 추진은 물을 내부 덕트로 빨아들여 임펠러로 물을 가속시켜 노즐을 통해 분사시킴으로써 입출구의 운동량차이에 의해 추력을 얻는 추진장치이다. 선박의 목적에 따라 사용되는 다양한 형태의 물분사 추진기의 개발을 위하여 모형실험을 통하여 그 성능을 검증하는 부분에서 로터의 피치각 변화에 따른 추진기의 성능 실험을 하는 것은 많은 비용과 시간이 따른다. 따라서 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 추진기 내부의 유동장을 4가지 피치각에 따라 추진력을 3차원 비압축성 Navier-Stokes 방정식을 이용하여 해석하였다. 로터의 회전을 고려하여 슬라이딩 다중 격자기법을 적용하였고 추력계수, 토크계수, 그리고 모멘텀을 해석 결과와 비교 분석을 통하여 추진기의 성능과 효율을 추정하였다.

Rotor blades experience mechanical loads caused by the turbulent wind shear and an impulse-like wind due to the tower shadow effect. These mechanical loads shorten the life of wind turbine. As the size of wind turbine gets bigger, a control system design for mitigating mechanical loads becomes more important. In this paper, individual pitch control(IPC) for the mechanical loads reduction of rotor blades in a transition wind speed region is introduced, and simulation results verifying IPC performance are discussed.

In general, the pitch momentum biased system that induces inherently nutational motion in roll/yaw plane, has been adapted for geosynchronous communications satellites. This paper discusses the method of roll attitude control using yaw axis momentum management method for a low earth orbit(LEO) satellite which is a pitch momentum biased system equipped with only two reaction wheels. The robustness of wheel momentum management method with PI-controller is investigated comparing with wheel torque control method. The transfer function of roll/yaw axis momentum management system that is useful for attitude controller design is derived. The disturbance effect of roll/yaw axis momentum management system for attitude control is investigated to identify design parameters such as magnitude of momentum bias and to get the insight for controller design. As an example, the PID controller design result of momentum management system for roll/yaw axis control is provided and the simulation results are presented to provide further physical insight into the momentum management system.

The purpose of this study is to develop a software for the performance evaluation and blade design of a pitch-controlled HAWT using BEMT(Blade Element Momentum Theory) with Prandtl's tip loss. The HERACLES V2.0 software consist of three major part ; basic blade design, aerodynamic coefficient mapping and performance calculation including stall or pitch control option. A 1MW wind turbine blade was designed at the rated wind speed(12m/s) composing five different airfoils such as FFA-W-301, DU91-W250, DU93-W-210, NACA 63418 and NACA 63415 from hub to tip. The mechanical power predicted by BEMT at the rated wind speed is about 1.27MW. Also, CFD analysis was performed to confirm the validity of the BEMT results. The comparison results show good agreement about the error of 6.5% in rated mechanical power.

In this paper, a method of designing the pitch control algorithm for the wind turbine generator system (WTGS) and results of nonlinear simulation are presented. For this, the WTGS is treated as a multibody system and the blade element and momentum theory are adopted to model the aerodynamic force and torque acting the rotor blades. For the purpose of controller design, the WTGS is approximated to 1 DOF system using the fact that the WTGS is eventually a constrained multibody system. Then a classical PID controller is designed and used to regulate the rotational speed of the generator. FORTRAN based nonlinear simulation program is written and used to evaluate the performance of the proposed controller at the various wind scenario and operational modes.

As the size of a wind turbine increases, the rotor diameter increases. Rotor blades experience mechanical loads caused by the wind shear and the tower shadow effect. These mechanical loads reduce the life of the wind turbine. Therefore, with increasing size of the wind turbine, wind turbine control system design for the mitigation of mechanical loads is important. In this study, Individual Pitch Control in introduced for reducing the mechanical loads of rotor blades, and a simulation for IPC performance verification is discussed.

The turbulence structure for fully developed flow through the subchannels formed by the bare rod array depends on the pitch to rod diameter ratio. For fairly open spaced bare rod arrays, the distributions of the three components of the turbulent normal stresses are similar to those measured in circular pipe. However, for more closely spaced arrays, the turbulence structure, especially in the gap region, depart markedly from the pipe flow distribution. A linear relationship between turbulent normal stresses and turbulent kinetic energy for fully developed turbulent flow through regularly spaced bare rod arrays has been developed. This correlation can be used in connection with various theoretical analyses applied in turbulence research.
