Purpose: Slow manual harvesting of rain-fed chickpeas cultivated in fallow fields in developing countries have encouraged the design of a mechanical harvester. Methods: A tractor-pulled harvester was built, in which a modified stripper header detached pods from an anchored plant and a chain conveyor transferred material. The stripper harvester was redesigned to use: 1) the maneuverability of tractor-mounted frames, 2) the adaptability of floating headers, and 3) the flexibility of pneumatic conveyors. Results: A mobile vacuum conveyor, which was an innovator open system, was designed for the dilute phase transferring mode for both grain and material other than grain. A centrifugal fan transferred harvested material to a cyclone separator that settled harvested material in a grain tank 1 m high. The machine at the spot work rate of $0.42ha{\cdot}h^{-1}$ harvested chickpea pods equal to the output of 16.6 farm laborers. Conclusion: The low cost and reasonable projected purchase price are the advantages of the concept. Additionally, the shattering loss reduction confirms the feasibility of the prototype chickpea harvester for commercialization.

분리기 내 압력 조절을 통하여 압력 변화가 세라믹 입자 $Al_2O_3$, $Fe_2O_3$ 분급에 미치는 영향을 수치 해석적으로 분석하였다. 입자 분급 해석을 위해 3차원 Lagrangian approach를 이용하였으며, 이를 통해 입자의 분리기 내 거동 경로를 추적하여 각 압력에 따른 분리 가능한 최소 입자 크기(cut-diameter)와 분리율(separation rate)를 계산하였다. 압력 감소는 입자를 운반하는 아르곤 가스의 밀도를 감소시키면서, 분리기 내부 압력 손실을 줄이는 원인이 되었다. 이로 인해 상압에서 분리기 압력이 저압 상태로 변함에 따라, 더 미세한(수 $\mu\textrm{m}$) 입자가 분리 가능함이 예측되었다. 특히 50 torr의 저압 하에서 계산된 세라믹 입자의 분급 양상을 분석하면,$Al_2O_3$ 입자는 4 $\mu\textrm{m}$, $Fe_2O_3$경우는 3$\mu\textrm{m}$ 크기의 입자 분리가 가능하였다.

진공집진 스탠딩 그라인더는 그라인딩을 하면서 동시에 발생하는 분진을 집진하는 것으로서, 산업현장에서 도장하기 전에 도장 표면이나 용접 후 비드 부위를 깨끗하게 하기 위하여 필요하다. 최근에 스탠딩 그라인더는 연마 및 분진집진 용량이 커졌으나 반면에 발생소음이 적고 컴팩트하고 포터블화하는 추세이다. 이러한 연마와 집진 성능이 증가함에 따라서 소음과 중량이 중요한 문제로 야기된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 효율적인 사이클론을 Ansys-CFX에 의하여 해석하여 설계하고 실험을 거쳐서 개발되었으며, 그 결과, 그라인더부의 중량은 5.9kg로서 작업자가 충분히 들고 작업을 할 수 있으며, 개발 제품의 소음은 69.9dB(A)로서 좋은 결과를 얻었다.

In conventional closed-loop crankcase ventilation systems, the lubrication oil had to be re-circulated to the intake manifold, in the form of oil mist mixed with the blow-by gas. This blow-by gas containing the engine lubricant oil affects on the engine problems and the exhaust emissions. A high-efficient oil separator is required to minimize consumption of engine oil and reduce harmful emissions. In the conventional oil separator of CI engines, it has good oil separation performance even though separator design is simple, due to lots of the blow-by gas. As the emission regulation becomes severe, the oil separator for SI engines is also required. But in SI engines, separator design should be optimized, due to small size of oil particles and little amount of blow-by gas. In this study, oil separation performance classified by diameter of oil mist in cylinder head cover internal model which has three cyclones and two baffle plates for SI engine is calculated with CFD methodology.

A cyclone is a dust-separating mechanism that works on the principle of centrifugal force. The performance of a cyclone is evaluated using pressure loss and collection efficiency. A multi-cyclone arrangement is used to improve the collection efficiency within a limited area. In this study, experiments and numerical analyses were conducted on a dual arrangement of mini-hydrocyclone separators, which was fabricated using 3D printing. The experiment was performed at an inlet flow rate of 0.7 m/s, and alumina powder with a particle size of 0.5, 15, and 50 ㎛. ANSYS FLUENT, was used for the numerical analysis. The reliability of the numerical analysis was verified through a comparison with the experimental results. The errors in the experiment and numerical analysis were confirmed to be 2% at the outlet flow rate.

For a reasonable analysis of grade efficiency of cyclone separator, in-line measurements of particle size and particle concentration are needed. The purpose of this study is to define the correlation of measurement data and to measure grade efficiency and pressure drop. The authors adapted that the grade efficiency could be calculated directly from the counted particle numbers. The problem of collection efficiency calculation was different from counting rate of aerosol counters under the same conditions. It is important factor to use the rate of the particle counters to obtain reliable results. Therefore, the authors should use and calculate compensation factor considering sensitivity of aerosol counters, gas velocity and concentration affect higher 30% than originally measured grade efficiency. As the pressure drop and grade efficiency increase, as flow rate increase and then also pressure drop and grade efficiency increase.

수직컬럼형 풍력선별기의 선별능력을 향상시키기 위해 일시적인 중광(middling)의 흐름을 형성할 수 있는 측로(bypass)를 선별컬럼의 중앙에 설치하였다. 측로를 흐름을 조절하여 주선별컬럼에서 상부흐름의 속도는 가벼운 물질만이 상부로 회수하도록 설정하고 하부흐름의 속도는 무거운 물질만이 하부로 회수되도록 설정하였다. 측로로 이동하는 흐름은 사이클론을 통과시켜 중광이 피더로 회수되도록 하였다. 일반 수직컬럼형 풍력선별기와 개조된 선별기에서 유리와 지르코니아 비드(bead)의 혼합물을 사용하여 성능향상의 효과를 실험하였다.

The worldwide focus on reducing the emissions, fuel and lubricant consumption in T-GDI engines is leading engineers to consider the crankcase ventilation and oil mist separation system as an important means of control. In today's passenger cars, the oil mist separation systems mainly use the inertia effect (e.g. labyrinth, cyclone etc.). Therefore, this study has investigated high efficiency cylinder head-integrated oil-mist separator by using a compact multi-impactor type oil mist separator system to ensure adequate oil mist separation performance. For this purpose, engine dynamometer testing with oil particle efficiency measurement equipment and 3D two-phase flow simulation have been performed for various engine operating conditions. Tests with an actual engine on a dynamometer showed oil aerosol particle size distributions varied depending on operating conditions. For instance, high rpm and load increases bot only blow-by gases but the amount of small size oil droplets. Submicron-sized particles (less than 0.5 ㎛) were also observed. It is also found that the impactor type separator is able to separate nearly no droplets of diameter lower than 3 ㎛. CFD results showed that the complex aerodynamics processes that lead to strong impingement and break-up can strip out large droplets and generate more small size droplets.

본 논문은 전산해석을 통하여 일반적으로 가솔린엔진에 적용되는 오일분리기의 성능을 분석하였다. 현재 상용화된 제품을 해석한 결과 Labyrinth부분에서는 포집 능력이 거의 없는 것을 확인하였다. 오일입자 포집효율이 전체적으로 분포되지 않고 5개의 작은 홀이 있는 격판 부분에서만 집중적으로 나타나는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 일반적인 Cyclone형태의 오일분리기보다 압력강하량이 높은 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
