  • Oval substrates are widely used in automobiles to reduce the exhaust emissions in Diesel oxidation Catalyst of CI engine. Because of constraints in space and packaging Oval substrate is preferred rather than round substrate. Obtaining the flow uniformity is very challenging in oval substrate comparing with round substrate. In this present work attempts are made to optimize the inlet cone design to achieve the optimal flow uniformity with the help of CATIA V5 which is 3D design tool and CFX which is 3D CFD tool. Initially length of inlet cone and mass flow rate of exhaust stream are analysed to understand the effects of flow uniformity and pressure drop. Then short straight cones and angled cones are designed. Angled cones have been designed by two methodologies. First methodology is rotating flow inlet plane along the substrate in shorter or longer axis. Second method is shifting the flow inlet plane along the longer axis. Large improvement in flow uniformity is observed when the flow inlet plane is shifted along the direction of longer axis by 10, 20 and 30 mm away from geometrical centre. When the inlet plane is rotated again based on 30 mm shifted geometry, significant improvement at rotation angle of $20^{\circ}$ is observed. The flow uniformity is optimum when second shift is performed based on second rotation. This present work shows that for an oval substrate flow, uniformity index can be optimized when inlet cone is angled by rotation of flow inlet plane along axis of substrate.

  • This paper is to study applying for numerical analysis method for flow field, velocity and pressure of fuel on the low pressure pump using excavator. The pressure distribution of fuel pump certified the linear variation according to rotation angle of rotor. Especially, it knew the fact that the pressure in rotation angle $40^{\circ}$ appeared high outlet and low inlet of fuel pump. Also, this range angle can seek the fact that the leakage flow and velocity are the most increasing. And the more rotor rotation of fuel pump, the more mean outlet flow rate increased in linear. Whenever the gap size decrease with rotor and housing, the discharge flow rate could seek the approaching 0.0712kg/s that consider with theory discharge flow rate calculated from displacement between rotor gear and idle gear.

  • This paper addresses the kinematic study for the structural analysis of the S60ME-C multi-cylinder vessel engine. The load conditions such as the lateral force and the reaction force by the crank-shaft are required for the FEM analysis. The driving parts in vessel engine are assumed to be in frictionless rigid plane motion. We analytically derive dynamic forces for a single cylinder by using the dynamic force equilibrium. But, for the structural analysis for a single cylinder block, we use the loading conditions of two neighboring cylinders. Meanwhile, we use the single cylinder's loading condition to calculate the multi-cylinder's loading conditions, because each cylinder shows a cyclic loading pattern with respect to the crank arm's rotation angle.

  • The easiest way to see the phenomena of compressor surge is to show the static and dynamic operation characteristic on the map. Its operation zone will be restricted by the surge limit and, static and transient process must have some margin for it. Effect of rotor moment of inertia, air/gas volumes and heat transfer are factors to cause the transition from the static line. In case a large volume such as heat exchanger exists in the system it will exert a substantial influence to dynamic characteristics. In the present paper, influence of air volume bled from the compressor exit on transient process is investigated with an example of an auxiliary power unit micro-turbine engine. Turbine mass, pressure ratio, rotation speed, power and moment are calculated based on mass and work conservation. Result from the present study can give guidance to design the control system. A computer program is developed to calculate the dynamic process using the MathCAD commercial software.

  • Jet engine modulation(JEM) signals are widely used for target recognition. These signals coming from a potentially hostile aircraft provide specific information about the jet engine. In order to obtain the number of blades, which is uniquely provided by the JEM signal, one must extract the spool rate, which is the rotation speed of the blades. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to extract the spool rate from a weak JEM signal. A criterion is developed to extract the spool rate from the JEM signal by analyzing the intensity of the JEM signal component. The weak signal is first subjected to a high-pass filtering-based process, which modifies it to facilitate spool rate extraction. We then apply a peak detection process and extract the spool rate. The technique is simpler than the existing CEMD or WD method, is accurate, and greatly reduces the time required.

  • Gas turbine disk components have been used by Ni-base superalloys which have high temperature strength for enduring stress induced by high speed rotation. This study introduced the overview of development strategy of precision forging of turbine disk and closed-die forging process for manufacturing good quality gas turbine disk. To make superior quality turbine disk, it is important to select optimal forging process conditions like preform shape, die shape and forging temperature etc. In this paper, closed-die forging process has been studied through the rigid-plastic finite element simulation. Proposed forging process can be used for the successful manufacturing of small-size gas turbine disk.

  • This paper presents the leg trajectory generation for the quadruped robot with genetic-fuzzy algorithm. To have the nobility even at uneven terrain, a robot is able to recognize obstacles, and generates moving path of body that can avoid obstacles. This robot should have its own avoidance algorithm against obstacles, forwarding to target without collision. During walking period, n robot recognizes obstacle from external environment with a PSD and some interface, and this obstacle information is converted into proper the body rotation angle by fuzzy inference engine. After this process, we can infer the walking direction and walking distance of body, and finally can generate the optimal Beg trajectory using genetic algorithm. All these methods are verified with PC simulation program, and implemented to SERO-V robot.

  • ECHO progress was defined to depict the rotordynamic pump theory development. Experience (E) era for pumps lasted nearly one and a half hundred years before the Industrial Revolution due to the low rotation speed of motor and undeveloped manufacture ability. Classic (C) theory referring to quasi-static performance as well as the items those were not able to be steadily resolved under the level were briefly and sophisticated outlined. Since 1962, flow instabilities and the dynamic responses had come into main attention with the development of the modern technologies such as ballistic missile, rocket and space shuttle main engine, and were finally heuristically (H) elucidated by talented scholars and researchers. Recently, new applications for the pumps open (O) to the surrounding fluid and diversity of the medium such as multiphase flow need more studies and some examples were briefly introduced to display the potential problems lastly.

  • Recently, the development of high speed and high precision NC-lathe for piston head machining is needed for the complexity and diversity of the piston head shape used in automobile reciprocating engine. THe piston head has many complex shapes in the aspect of fuel economy, such as ovality, profile, double ovality and recess. Among them, for the maching of the over shape of 0.1~1mm the cutting tool should move periodically symchronized with the rotation of piston workpiece. The cutting tool feeed system must have high positioning accuracy for the precise machining, high speed for the fast maching and high dynamic stiffness for the cutting force. The linear brushless DC motor is used for satisfying these coditions. The ballbush guide and supporting guide using turcite is used for the guidance of the feed drive system. Linear encoder, digital servo ampllifer and controller are used for driving the motor. THis paper presents the design and simulation of the new tool feed system for noncircular machining.
