  • In comparison with conventional motors, Superconducting Homopolar Synchronous Motors (SHSMs) have advantages that it generates high magnetic field by superconducting winding. Therefore, superconducting coil used in SHSM can reduce the motor size and enhance the motor efficiency for high torque applications under the space constraints for propulsion system. During the design process of SHSM, it is required to evaluate the performance of initial design model, that is accurately analyzed using 3D magnetic field modeling large air-gap and flux distribution of axial direction is properly taken into account. In this paper, we analyze magnetic field of a homopolar motor with a 4-pole homopolar rotor and a stator of 3 phase windings. The field analysis is done using 3D finite element analysis which can reflect the end effect and overhang winding. And we extract mutual inductances between a rotor wind and the 3 stator windings. The extracted inductances are used for evaluation of overall motor performances that are calculated with generalized circuit theory of electrical machines.

  • Two-axial electrodynamic forces generated on a conductive plate by a partially shielded magnet wheel are strongly coupled through the rotational speed of the wheel. To control the spatial position of the plate using magnet wheels, the forces should be handled independently. Thus, three methods are proposed in this paper. First, considering that a relative ratio between two forces is independent of the length of the air-gap from the top of the wheel, it is possible to indirectly control the in-plane position of the plate using only the normal forces. In doing so, the control inputs for in-plane motion are converted into the target positions for out-of-plane motion. Second, the tangential direction of the open area of the shield plate and the rotational speed of the wheel become the new control variables. Third, the absolute magnitude of the open area is varied, instead of rotating the open area. The forces are determined simply by using a linear controller, and the relative ratio between the forces creates a unique wheel speed. The above methods were verified experimentally.

  • MlAB(magnetically impelled arc butt) welding is a sort of pressure welding method by melting two pipe sections with high speed rotating arc and upsetting two pipes in the axial direction. The electro-magnetic force, the driving force of the arc rotation, is generated by interaction of arc current and magnetic field induced from the magnetic flux generator in the welding system. In this study, an openable coil system for the generation of magnetic flux and a 3-dimensional numerical model for analyzing the electro-magnetic field were proposed. Through the fundamental numerical analyses, a magnetic concentrator was adopted for smoothing the magnetic flux density distribution in the circumferential direction. And then a series of numerical analysis were performed for investigating the effect of system parameters on the magnetic flux density distribution in the interested welding area.. Numerical quantitative analyses showed that magnetic flux density distribution generated from the proposed coil system is mainly dependent on the exciting current in the coil and the position of coil or concentrator from the pipe outer surface. And the gap between pipe ends and arc current are also considered as important factors on arc rotating behavior.

  • PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to compare the fit of cast gold crowns fabricated from the conventional and the digital impression technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Artificial tooth in a master model and abutment teeth in ten patients were restored with cast gold crowns fabricated from the digital and the conventional impression technique. The forty silicone replicas were cut in three sections; each section was evaluated in nine points. The measurement was carried out by using a measuring microscope and I-Soultion. Data from the silicone replica were analyzed and all tests were performed with ${\alpha}$-level of 0.05. RESULTS. 1. The average gaps of cast gold crowns fabricated from the digital impression technique were larger than those of the conventional impression technique significantly. 2. In marginal and internal axial gap of cast gold crowns, no statistical differences were found between the two impression techniques. 3. The internal occlusal gaps of cast gold crowns fabricated from the digital impression technique were larger than those of the conventional impression technique significantly. CONCLUSION. Both prostheses presented clinically acceptable results with comparing the fit. The prostheses fabricated from the digital impression technique showed more gaps, in respect of occlusal surface.

  • Purpose: We developed the software for diffusion tensor imaging and evaluated its feasibility in norm brains. Method: Five normal volunteers, aged from 25 to 29 years, were examined on a 1.5 T MR system. the diffusion tensor pulse sequence used a SE-EPI with 6 diffusion gradie directions of (1, 1, 0), (-1, 1,0), (1, 0, 1), (-1, 0, 1), (0, 1, 1), (0, 1, -1) and also with no diffusion gradient. A b-factor of 500 sec/mm2 was used. Measurement parameter were as follows; TR/TE=10000 ms/99 ms, FOV=240 mm, matrix=128$\times$128, slice thickness/gap=6 mm/0 mm, bandwidth=91 kHz and the number of total slices=20. Four repeated axial diffusion images were averaged for diffusion tensor imaging. A total scan 11 of 4 min 30 sec was used. Six full diffusion tensor components of Dxx, Dyy, Dzz, Dxy, Dxz and Dyz were obtained using two-point linear regression model from 7 diffusion-weight images at each pixel and fractional anisotropy and lattice index images was estimated fr their eigenvectors and eigenvalues. Our program was written on a platform of IDL. W evaluated the qualities of fractional anisotropy and lattice index images of normal brains a knew whether our software for diffusion tensor imaging may be feasible.

  • To investigate the seal dynamic instability for a misaligned and coned mechanical face seal, the finite difference approximation was employed to solve the modified Reynolds equation for an incompressible fluid and temperature dependent viscosity. Using the solution, the results for axial force, transverse moment, restoring moment, and ratio of the transverse moment and the restoring moment are calculated for the whole range from zero to full angular misalignment. The results indicate that the transverse moment due to the angular misalignment and coning terms affects considerably the dynamic instability of face seals. It is shown that the simplified treatment of Reynolds equation using the narrow seal approximation overestimate the ratio of the transverse moment to the restoring moment especially at touch.

  • 누설방지를 목적으로 산업용 기계에서 많이 사용되고 있는 기계평면시일(mechanical face seal)은 기능상 높은 신뢰도를 요구하고 있다. 이를 위하여 동적 안정성이 커야되고, 밀봉된 유체의 누설을 최소화시킬 수 있는 정도에서 시일의 수명을 결정해야 한다. 이와같이 상반된 성질을 동시에 만족시키기 위하여 시일 성능에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 기하학적 요인들을 고려하여 해석해야 한다. 일반적으로 미끄럼 접촉운동을 하고 있는 시일에서 시일링 간극(sealing gap)이 수 micron 단위라는 점을 고려할때 시일 조립시 중심맞추기(alignnment) 정미\ulcorner 결여 및 회전축의 자중량 등에 의한 기계적 변형(mechanical distortion), 특히 고온의 분위기에서 작동되고 있는 시일의 열변형(thermal distortion)은 시일의 경사집에 커다란 영햐을 주고 있다. 또한 누설을 최소화시킬 목적으로 시일 링(seal ring) 을 시일의 경사짐에 커다란 영향을 주고 있는 스프링의 강성도를 증가시키면 상대 미끄럼 운동을 하고 있는 접촉명이 건조마찰에 의한 마멸이 진행되어 코닝(coning)현상이 생긴다. 시일 평면에서 코닝 현상은 시일의 축방향 분리력(axial separtating force)과 경사 모우면트(tilting moment)에 커다란 영향을 주고 있는 것으로 알여졌다. 이들의 연구는 주로 경사진 시일평판에 시일근사치이논(seal approximation bhoryl)을 이용하여 1차원 비압축성에 관한 시월 성능을 해석하였다. 본 연구에서는 비압축성 유체의 점성이 온도에 의하여 변화를 일으키는 조건하에서 경사진 회전시일에 코닝이 발생되었을때 시일링 각극에서의 압력분포를 ㅈ차원인 경우에 대하여 수치적으로 해석을 하였다.

  • An analysis is made to study the solute transport in a Casson fluid flow through an annulus in presence of oscillatory flow field and determine how this flow influence the solute dispersion along the annular region. Axial dispersion coefficient and the mean concentration expressions are calculated using the generalized dispersion model. Dispersion coefficient in oscillatory flow is found to be a function of frequency parameter, Schmidt number, and the pressure fluctuation component besides its dependency on yield stress of the fluid, annular gap and time in the case of steady flow. Due to the oscillatory nature of the flow, the dispersion coefficient changes cyclically and the amplitude and magnitude of the dispersion increases initially with time and reaches a non - transient state after a certain critical time. This critical value varies with frequency parameter and independent of the other parameters. It is found that the presence of inner cylinder and increase in the size of the inner cylinder inhibits the dispersion process. This model may be used in understanding the dispersion phenomenon in cardiovascular flows and in particular in catheterized arteries.
