The end winding is an important part in induction motor for thermal analysis. But there is little information on the heat transfer coefficient of that surfaces because of geometrical complexity. So our experimental object is to know the heat transfer coefficient of end winding and find the optimum design parameter of rotor fan. Carbon coated papers were used for a uniform heat generating surfaces which were easy to fabricate. The experiments of some parameters were performed as varying rotation speed of rotor fan. We obtained the local and average Nusselt number of the end winding surfaces by correcting radiation and conduction losses errors. The results showed that the average Nusselt number increased with rotor fan blade number and width but decreased with end winding length. However, the increasing limits existed in the case of rotor fan width and blade number. So optimum design value were obtained for rotor fan width and blade numbers.

The objective of this numerical study is to investigate the effect of the shape and material of the blower blade for the electrified speed sprayer on the blowing performance. The shape of the blade was changed to the bonding angle, the number of blades, the width of the blade, and the blade length based on the existing model. In order to obtain the reliability of the numerical model, the analysis of the grid dependence was performed in the numerical analysis. The numerical analysis results were compared and analyzed in terms of the agricultural chemical penetration length characteristics, flow uniformity characteristics, and velocity distribution characteristics. Furthermore, the effect of material change on weight reduction and structural characteristics was also compared and analyzed. As a result of the analysis, it was found that the optimal condition was that the blade angle was 45°, the number of blades was 12, and the width was 115 mm, which was confirmed through a comparison of the inlet mass flow rate. As a result of the equivalent stress lower than the yield strength due to the material change from aluminum to steel compared to the existing steel, structural defects do not appear, and it is judged that the operation time compared to the battery capacity will be improved through the weight reduction of the blade.

Turbine blades operate under high temperature and pressure. The influence changes according to its width and angle. Thermal stress and pressure are important factors to analyze the stress distribution. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of loads on the gas turbine blade using thermal stress analysis. These analysis results show the gas fluid flow with a high pressure around the surface of blade. Gas temperature is related to the pressure of flow around the blade. The stress concentration around blade is shown and the concentration is due to the difference between suction side and pressure side of combustion gas.

Turbine blade has trouble of cracking at root region. Fracture surface of blade root is surveyed by SEM and AFM to clear relation between fracture mechanical parameter and surface parameter (striation width and surface roughness). Service stress is predicted by maximum height roughness $R_{max}$, on fractured surface and stress analysis on turbine blade. It is to thought that turbine blade is fractured by abnormal condition such as incorrect fittings between pin and pin hole but isn't fractured by normal service conditions such as steam pressure, centrifugal force and torsional force.

A turbo-fan for the 4-way cassette indoor units of air-conditioners has been investigated. The main purpose of this investigation is the reduction of the turbo-fan noise. In order to reduce the noise level, many design parameters of turbo-fans such as blade section, blade thickness, geometry of blade leading edge, blade width, blade angle and bellmouth depth have been studied. With the experimental data of these parameters, a new turbo-fan was made for our system. The noise level of the new system was at least 3 dB(A) lower than that of the current in use.

This study was conducted to determine the optimum blade shape for peeling Altari radish. To figure out the required peeling force according to various angles of blade and rakes of peeling cutter, two peeling tests such as circumferential peeling and longitudinal peeling of Altari radish were carried out. Based on the pretest results, which performed to investigate the applicability of the optimum shape of cutter and to find out the cutting pattern according to the lapse of days after harvesting the radish, the peeling depth and width of the blade were fixed at 2 mm and 10 mm. From two methods of circumferential and longitudinal peeling test, the angles of rake and blade as cutter shape factors were affected on peeling force. But the peeling speed was not affected on it under the safety speed as 0.2 m/s, without blade vibrating on peeling operation. The rake angle was more effective factor than the blade angle, and the optimum angles of blade and rake were 10$^{\circ}$ and 55$^{\circ}$ respectively. The cutting surface by the longitudinal peeling was more smooth than that by the circumferential peeling. There was no problem in peeling work during 4 days after harvest because the freshness of the Altari radish was maintained.

In this study, peeling test of the Altari radish on kimchi pre-processing system for mechanization was performed with the longitudinal plane peeling type with wider cutting blade than that of the peeled chip's. To determine the optimum cutter shape to match this plane peeling type, the peeling tests depending on variable cutting speed, rake angle and blade angle using the blade with thickness as 2 m and width as 50mm were performed, and the patterns of the peeled chips and peeling resistances were investigated. As the result of the tests, the rake angle of the blade with clean peeled surface of the Altari radish was over $45^{\circ}$, and the blade angle and rake angle with the minimum peeling resistance was $20^{\circ}\;and\;60^{\circ}$, respectively. The optimum peeling conditions were; the peeling speed 0.2m/s, blade angle $20^{\circ}$ and the rake angle $60^{\circ}$, and the peeling resistance of each blade was 15 N.

This study was performed to develop a high-efficiency submersible nonclogging pump impeller. Toward this end, we simulated the effect of some parameters such as the outlet position of a blade ($h_I$), outlet width of a blade ($b_2$), and hub profile on the pump efficiency by using the commercial codes ANSYS CFX and BladeGen. The results showed that the pump efficiency was proportional up to $h_I$= 38 mm and $b_2$= 55 mm. It remained constant over these values. However, the head and shaft power were proportional to $h_I$ and $b_2$ in the simulated ranges. The effects of hub profile changes on the pump efficiency were relatively small compared to those of the other parameters.

This study, a basic study to improve aerodynamic characteristic of a wind blade, explored through CFD how much the lift to drag ratio improves according to the shape of groove formed on the surface of airfoil NACA0015. This study found out that the ratio improves by 8.7% when the ratio between boundary layer(${\delta}$) and the depth of groove(h), the ratio between the depth of groove(h) and the width of groove(d) and the ratio between the length(p) from one groove to the other and the width of groove are 1.1, 0.1 and 1.2 respectively. The number of grooves is two. It was also confirmed that the improvement of the lift to drag ratio is maintained after certain angle of attack.

In this paper, we analyzed the effects of doctoring process on the patterns of Ag ink in gravure off-set printing. The parameters of doctoring process were the angle and the pressure, which was represented by the depth of blade movement to the gravure roll, of doctor blade to the surface of gravure roll, and the angle of patterns engraved on the gravure roll to the doctor blade moving direction. The proper parameters were extracted for the fine patterns and they were 15 mm for the pressure, $60^{\circ}$ for the blade angle. And the angle of patterns with respect to the blade movement should be less than $40^{\circ}$ for the best results. The gravure off-set printing with the above parameters was carried out to print gate electrodes and scan bus lines of OTFT-backplane for e-paper. The line width of $50{\mu}m$ was successfully obtained. The thickness of electrodes was $2.5{\mu}m$ and the surface roughness was $0.65{\mu}m$ and the sheet resistance was $15.8{\Omega}/{\Box}$.
