Variation of dynamic characteristics of a low pressure turbine blade with crack length is studied in this paper via both experiments and finite element model. Since most of the turbine blades used in domestic power plants are imported from abroad, it is necessary to understand their dynamic behavior in advance. When experimentally obtained natural frequencies and mode shapes are compared with those from FEM results, they are close to each other in their magnitude. Then, it is more feasible to use finite element model for analyzing the dynamic characteristics of a blade under various operation conditions (rotation speed, temperature, etc) as well as with a crack in the blade.

The steam turbine rotor blade is designed using the Turbine Rotor Design Package developed by the authors. It can quickly accomplish blade shape design in the power plant industry. The quasi-3d code is employed for analysis of passage flow in the blade sections. Iterative change of each blade shape is made by moving position of control points in the Bezier curve under GUI(graphic user interface) environment. The full 3-D blade shape is obtained by stacking of the section blades.

지금까지 발전 설비 터빈 블레이드의 이상 탐지는 사람에 의해 진행되어왔다. 하지만 발전 설비 노후화로 인한 이상 탐지 수요 증가와 터빈 블레이드의 이상을 검사하는 검사자 간의 기량 차로 인해 발생하는 검출 결과의 상이성으로 인해, 이러한 터빈 블레이드 이상 탐지 수요 증가와 인적 요소로 인해 발생하는 오류를 줄이고 높은 신뢰성의 터빈 블레이드 이상 검출성능을 안정적으로 제공할 수 있는 기법 개발의 필요성이 지속해서 제기되어 왔다. 이번 논문에서는 최근 다양한 분야에서 인상적인 성능 향상을 달성한 깊은 신경망을 이용한 발전 설비 터빈 블레이드의 이상 탐지 기술을 제안한다. 실험 결과는 제안된 기술이 인적 요소의 개입을 최소화함과 동시에 안정적인 이상 검출성능을 달성함을 증명한다.

Using the soil bin systems, this study was carried out to analyze the effects of the angular and tilling speed of the rotary shaft with the edge curves which were $30^{\circ}$ and $40^{\circ}$, and the edged blade which were single and double, on the torque requirement of rotary tillage. In the analyses, we developed the mathematical models for the torque requirments of rotary tillage, and analyzed the optimum conditions of each variable for the minimum tillage torque requriements. The results of the study were summarized as follows. 1. The required tilling torque by one rotary blade has the minimum value when the tilling speed of the rotary blade was low, and the revolution of the rotary blade was fast, in general. 2. The torque requirements of single edged blade was decreased to about 81% in comparing with that of double edged blade of which the edge curved angle was $40^{\circ}$ and the tilling speed was 29.40 cm/sec. But, for the mean values, the maximum torque requirements were decreased to 45%, and the mean torque requirements were decreased to 35%. 3. For the edge curved angle, the torque requirements of ${\theta}=40^{\circ}$ were 48% more than that of ${\theta}=30^{\circ}$ in the maximum tilling torque in case that the rotary blade were double edged blade. but, there was not a difference when the rotary blades were single edged blade. The mean tilling torques of ${\theta}=40^{\circ}$ were 6% more when the rotary blade was double edged blade, and were 11% less at single edged blade, than that of ${\theta}=30^{\circ}$. 4. In order to reduce the torque requirements for tilling, the optimum revolutions of the rotary shaft were analyzed as that 204-240 rpm for the double edged blade and 280-320 rpm for the single edged blade.

Recently, researches related to the green energy generation systems have increased significantly. Among them wind turbines are the most spread practical green energy generation systems. In order to enhance the power generation capacity of the wind turbine blade, the length of wind turbine blade has increased. It might cause undesirable excessive dynamic loads. Therefore dynamic characteristics of a wind turbine blade system should be identified for a safe design of the system. In this study, the equations of motion of a wind turbine blade system undergoing gravitational force are derived considering wind force and pitch angle. Effects of wind speed, variation of pitch angle of the wind turbine blade, rotating speed, and the blade length on its stability characteristics are investigated.

The reliability of blade root fixing section is required to endure the centrifugal force and vibration stress for the last stage blade of steam turbine in thermal power plant. Most of the domestic steam turbine last stage blades have finger type roots. The finger type blade is very complex, so the inspection had been performed only on the exposed fixing pin cross-section area due to the difficulty of inspection. But the centrifugal force and vibration stress are also applied at the blade root finger and the crack generates, so the inspection method for finger section is necessary. For the inspection of root finger, inspection points were decided by simulating ultra-sonic path with 3D modeling, curve-shape probe and fixing jig were invented, and the characteristics analysis method of ultrasonic reflection signal and defect signal disposition method were invented. This invented method was actually executed at site and prevented the blade liberation failure by detecting the cracks at the fingers. Also, the same type blades of the other turbines were inspected periodically and the reliability of the turbine increased.

The 3-dimensional flow field has been investigated by numerical analysis in a 2.5MW wind turbine blade. Complicated and separated flaw phenomena in the wind turbine blade were captured by the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes(RANS) steady flaw simulation using general-purpose code, CFX and the mechanism of vortex structure behavior is elucidated. The vortical flow field in a wind turbine rotor is dominated by the tip vortex and hub separation vortex. The tip vortex starts to be formed near the blade tip leading edge. As the tip vortex develops in the tangential direction, interacting with boundary layer from the blade tip trailing edge. The hub separation vortex is generated near the blade hub leading edge and develops nearly in the span-wise direction. Furthermore, 3-dimensional blade tip shape has been designed for increasing shrift power and reducing thrust force on the wind turbine blade. It is expected that the behavior of the tip vortex and hub separation vortex plays a major role in aerodynamic and aeroacoustic characteristics.

This paper presents numerical study on the performance improvement of the sirocco fan in a range hood. The performance of sirocco fan means a higher flowrate, a higher static pressure and a lower required motor power in a fixed geometry constraint. Various impeller geometric parameters, such as blade profile, blade diameter, blade thickness profile and blade exit angle, were investigated by numerically and the results were compared with each other to know the effects on the performance. In this approach, the volute geometry were fixed with the original shape. The numerical results show that the blade profile with airfoil shape and small exit blade thickness increases the performance. The blade exit angle shows optimum angle within a varied range. The efficiency of the optimized exit angle was about $10\%$ higher than the base blade exit angle and the static pressure was about $28\%$ higher at the flow coefficient 0.22.

본 연구에서는, 블레이드 요소-모멘텀 이론을 바탕으로, 최대 출력계수를 갖는 직경 80 cm의 실험실용 수평축 조류 터빈의 형상을 제시하고, 블레이드 피치각이 변할 때 출력계수의 변화 경향을 조사하였다. 또한 ANSYS-Fluent를 이용한 전산유체해석을 실시하여, 주어진 블레이드 피치각에 대하여 블레이드 요소-모멘텀 이론으로 계산한 출력계수를 검증하였다. 전산유체해석에는 계산 영역의 직경과 길이를 조류 터빈 반경의 15배로 하였고, 계산 영역의 경계에는 열린 경계조건을 인가하였다. 블레이드 요소-모멘텀 이론과 전산유체해석으로 계산한 조류 터빈의 최대 출력계수 약 48%로 서로 잘 일치하였다. 블레이드 피치각을 증가한 경우에는 두 방법으로 산출한 출력계수가 모두 감소하는 경향을 보였고, 그 값들도 서로 유사하였다. 이로부터, 블레이드 요소-모멘텀 이론을 기반으로 설계한 조류 터빈 형상 및 다양한 조건에서 대한 출력계수의 신뢰성을 확인하였다.

저유속 조건에서 소수력 에너지 생산 효율 증진을 위한 항력식 수직축 수차를 개발하기 위하여 전산 유체 동역학(CFD) 기법을 이용하여 수치해석을 수행하였다. 1.0~3.0 m/s의 유속 조건에서 수차 블레이드의 타공 유무에 따른 블레이드 압력 변화와 내부유동을 분석하였다. 수치해석 결과, 타공이 있는 경우 유속에 따라 수차 블레이드의 압력 및 유체 속도가 영향을 크게 받는 것으로 나타난 반면에, 타공이 없는 경우에는 유속에 따른 수차 블레이드의 압력 및 유체 속도의 영향이 상대적으로 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 타공이 포함되지 않은 수차 블레이드에 비교하여 타공이 포함된 수차 블레이드 표면에서 압력 분포와 유체의 속도가 고르게 나타났으며, 따라서 수차 블레이드에 타공을 형성하는 것이 구조안전성 측면에서 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다.
