The purpose of superconducting magnetic bearing flywheel energy storage system(SMB-FESS) is to store unused nighttime electricity as kinetic energy and convert it to electricity during daytime. The SMB-FESS is proposed as an efficient energy storage system because there is no mechanical problems, such as friction and wear The flywheel over SMB is rotated at a high speed, 50,000rpm. The major source of energy loss in the SMB-FESS is vibration of flywheel. Therefore, the vibration characteristics of SMB-FESS should be identified. In this study, the axial/radial stiffness and damping coefficient of SMB are measured by a vibration test. Natural frequencies and natural modes of flywheel and magnet are analyzed by a finite element method. The modal analysis of system is performed using the modal parameters of each component and the measured stiffness/damping coefficient. So, natural at frequencies and mode shapes of the joined system can be obtained. According to critical speed analysis, the system has two rigid conical modes in the low speed range. Nevertheless, the system has not been affected by the critical speed in the main operating range.

Ultra precision grinding technology has been developed from the refinement of the abrasive, the development of high stiffness equipment and grinding skill. The conventional wafering process which consists of lapping, etching, 1 st, 2nd and 3rd polishing has been changed to the new process which consists of precision surface grinding, final polishing and post cleaning. Especially, the ultra precision grinding of wafer improves the flatness of wafer and the efficiency of production. Furthermore, it has been not only used in bare wafer grinding, but also applied to wafer back grinding and SOI wafer grinding. This paper focuses on the flatness of the ground wafer. Generally, the ground wafer has concave pronto because of the difference of wheel path density, grinding temperature and elastic deformation of the equipment. Wafer tilting is applied to avoid non-uniform material removal. Through the geometric analysis of wafer grinding process, the profile of the ground wafer is predicted by the development of profile simulator.

As the ultra precision grinding can be applied to wafering process by the refinement of the abrasive. the development of high stiffness equipment and grinding skill, the conventional wafering process which consists of lapping, etching, 1st, 2nd and 3rd polishing could be exchanged to the new process which consists of precision surface grinding, final polishing and post cleaning. Especially, the ultra precision grinding of wafer improves the flatness of wafer and the efficiency of production. Futhermore, it has been not only used in bare wafer grinding, but also applied to wafer back grinding and SOI wafer grinding. This paper focused on the flatness of the ground wafer. Generally, the ground wafer has concave profile because of the difference of wheel path density, grinding temperature and elastic deformation of the equiptment. Tilting mathod is applied to avoid such non-uniform material removes. So, in this paper, the geometric analysis on grinding process is carried out, and then, we can predict the profile of th ground wafer by using profile simulation.

A 300Wh class flywheel energy storage system using high Tc superconductor bearings(HTC SFES) is being developed by KIMM and KEPRI. HTC SFES consists of a flywheel rotor, superconductor bearings, a motor/generator and its controller, touch-down bearings, vacuum chamber, etc. Stiffness and damping values of superconductor bearings were experimentally estimated to be 67,700N/m and 29Ns/m respectively. The present HTC SFES was designed to have maximum operating speed of 33000 rpm, which is far above 2 rigid body mode critical speeds of 645rpm and 1,275rpm. Leaf-spring type touch-down bearing were utilized to have the system pass safely through the system critical speeds. It has been experimentally verified that the system can run stably up to 28,000 rpm so that HTC SFES is now expected to reach up to its maximum design speed of 33,000rpm without any difficulties. The Halbach array motor & generator has also been proven its effectiveness on transferring electrical energy to a rotaing composite flywheel in kinetic form.

The ocean and meteorological payloads of COMS are concerned to experience degration of image quality due to the disturbance induced by the motion of moving parts of the payloads. And thruster firings for stationkeeping and wheel offloading are expected to degrade the image quality of the optical payloads. In case of COMS, in order to keep the optical payload free from the mechanical interference from the other payload, the operation design approach has been taken. This paper introduces the operation design of COMS taken to avoid these problems. In order to meet users requirement by avoiding the degradation of image quality, the timeline of optical payloads and housekeeping are optimized, and operational constraints are applied to the mirror motion of the meteorological payload. This paper also introduces the results of time budget analysis performed to validate the operation design.

A 500Wh class high-speed Flywheel Energy Storage System (FESS) driven by a built-in BLDC motor/generator has been designed, which runs from 30000 to 60000rpm nominally. Due to the motor/generator inside, the flywheel rotor made of composites supported by PM/EM hybrid bearing system has a shape of bell or pendulum and thus requires accurate rotordynamic analyses and prediction of its dynamic behavior to secure the operating reliability. Rotordaynamic analyses of the flywheel rotor-bearing system revealed that the bell shaped rotor has two conical rigid-body modes in the system operating range and the first conical mode, of which nodal point lies in the radial EM bearing position, can adversely affect the dynamic response of the rotor at the corresponding critical speed. To eliminate the possibility of wild behavior of the rotor, two guide bearings are adopted at the upper end of the rotor and motor/generator. It was also revealed that the EM bearing stiffness of 0.5~1.0E+6 N/m and damping of 2000 Ns/m are favorable for smooth operation of the system around the 2nd critical speed.

Ship's diesel engines have intrinsic problem to make vibrations caused by cylinder explosion and unbalanced rotating mass. These vibrations might induce noises, are transferred to hull and neighboring structures and cause secondary vibrations. This paper suggests the use of an additional dynamic absorber with a sub-vibration system to reduce the aforementioned vibrations. This dynamic absorber is designed based on an analysis of the free vibration of the engine shafting system and the forced vibrations.

국내기술로 개발된 고기동 위성이 해상도 70cm급 광학카메라를 탑재하고 태양동기궤도를 따라 지구 주위를 하루에 14바퀴이상 돌면서 임무를 수행한다. 높은 해상도의 영상을 얻기 위해 자세제어계에서는 고성능 별추적기와 자이로를 사용하는 정밀자세결정 로직과 반작용 휠을 사용하는 자세제어 로직을 운용한다. 자세제어계에서는, 발사환경 및 우주환경의 영향으로 인한 자이로의 오정렬, SF오차, 별추적기 상호간 오정렬에 대한 상대보정과 탑재컴퓨터에서 결정한 궤도 및 자세정보와 영상 기준점 정보를 이용하여 절대보정을 수행한다. 한편, 탑재 알고리즘에서는 강건한 자세결정로직을 운용하고 있고, 별추적기의 측정지연 보상, 처리 주기내의 평균 각속도 사용 등 실시간 운용으로 인한 제한으로 성능상의 제약이 있다. 따라서 정밀자세결정 지상 후처리 작업이 필요하며 이를 위해서 기 개발된 지상처리용 정밀자세결정 소프트웨어를 새로운 접속요구규격에 맞춰 업그레이드하였다. 지상처리 정밀자세결정을 위해서 탑재컴퓨터는 영상촬영 전후 일정기간 동안 별추적기 데이터, 자이로 데이터, 탑재컴퓨터에서 결정한 자세정보 등을 매 탑재컴퓨터 처리 주기로 저장하여 지상으로 전송한다. 전송된 자료를 이용하여 지상처리용 정밀자세결정 소프트웨어는 정밀궤도 정보와 결합하여 정밀자세결정을 수행한다. 고기동 위성의 경우 기동 후 정밀자세결정 수렴 속도 향상이 필요하며, 소프트웨어의 필터 파라미터를 조율하여 성능을 향상하였다.
