The squirrel case induction motor has widely used in the driving of the blowers but it is low efficiency and hard to control. So, the damper is used for the control of a flow and it cause to low the driving efficiency. Our laboratory has proposed the single-phase SRM(switched reluctance motor) for driving blowers. It has salient pole structure and can be reduced a number of semiconductors than three-phase SRM. But it can not be starting by itself and has heavier torque ripple than three-phase SRM. For self-starting the single-phase SRM is required the starting device which place the rotor at the rising inductance slope. On this paper, the electromagnet starting device is designed to generate the starting torque and to fix the rotating direction of the single-phase SRM which is fabricaed to use a blower.

The air blowers for fuel cell electric vehicle usually have big difference between inlet and outlet pressure. When the casing of the air blowers is designed, the stress analysis is required. (Approximately Inlet pressure is 0.5bar and outlet pressure is 2bar.) Gap distance between the casing and the impeller is 0.3mm. Therefore, if the amount of maximum deformation of casing is larger than 0.3mm, impeller crashed the casing. In order to avoid crashing, both the thickness and number of rims are changed and carried out simulations on each cases.

This study was originated to investigate the imparired parts of the mist and dust blowers and intended to analyze the causes of their failures by the use of the Weibull probability paper. By the use of the paper, the parts which were needed to change the design, the force of the urgency, the mean time between failures of the parts and the basic causes of the troubles could be predicted. The survey showed that the following parts got out of order: (A) flexible rubber hose, (B) blowing fan, (C) lead valve, (D) piston ring. (E) crank main bearing, (F) coil in magneto and (G) needle valve in carburettor. The analysis of the survey indicated that the parts G, C, E and D were belonged to "wear-out failure", and that the mean time between failures became shorter in order as indicated above. To insure longer lives of those parts, it would be necessary to change the design and the material and to upgrade operators mechanical technique of the mist and dust blower. The failure of the parts A, B and F was classified as "randomfailure", and they did not seem to be the "wear-out" at that time. The parts B and F was evaluated as "initial failure". Quality controls and operating tests by the producer. and the operational training for users should be strengthened so as to eliminate these failures. Were the failures only in the parts A, C, D, E, F and G, it could be said that the "reliability" of the mist and dust blower would fall to 10 percent in the second year, and 50 percent of the mist and dust blowers would fail in all parts A, C, D, E, F and G before the blower would have control insect and disease in 58.2 hectares. The use of the Weibull probability paper for analyzing failures of the mist and dust blowers was effective in that it analyzed failure in the relationship between strength of the parts and users actual circumstanoes.

The purpose of this study is to explore the motivation for, expectations of, consequences of, and attitudes toward whistle-blowing. that whistle-blowers experience in the whistle-blowing process, and clarify the difference between the ideal and reality. Fourteen official whistle-blowers were interviewed and qualitative data were analyzed based on phenomenological approach. As a result, motivational themes appeared such as professional spirit and personal values. They also tried to pursue public interest such as social changes as well as public support for them. In addition, the participants believed that the cultural characteristics of Korean society such as vertical collectivism are responsible for the gap between ideals and reality of whistle-blowing. In particular, They also suggested a few alternative for reducing the gap.

Centrifugal blowers are widely used for air handling units in industry applications. The blower has a centrifugal impeller and a scroll casing including a driving component such as an electric motor. The impeller takes forward or backward blades to induce flows into the blower, Comprehensive investigation according to the two kinds of blades is systematically carried out for a guidance of design for this kind research. It is observed that flow rate of the blower with forward blades is larger than that of the system with backward blades. Otherwise, the system noise is more pronounced in the case of the blower with forward blades. The reason is due to larger velocity from the rotating forward blades that pose obtuse angle with the circumferential direction. The distinguished characteristics are validated by a parallel experiments with a wind tunnel and in an anechoic chamber. Numerical analysis for the system shows detail information inside the blades and the casing. A series of figures to show the flow details offer deep understanding of the performance of a centrifugal blower with different blades.

In this study, structural design and analysis of a duct stand for blowers were performed. This structure was an axial fan and blower for wind tunnel of the vehicle environmental test chamber. The design of the blower duct stand support structure was performed by investigation on various loads. Additionally, self-weight of the motor and weight of the duct were investigated and applied. The duct stand structure was designed by analyzing the load. The safety of the structural design results was evaluated through finite element analysis. Finally, the safety of the design result was verified.

The revision is proposed for forward curved bladed fans in order to make the KS B 6326 established in 1987 in agreements with newly revised KS standards. This proposal includes modification of Aplication range, numbering system, classification based on performance, and allowing dimensions for specified sizes.
