This paper describes numerical analysis of the impulse turbine with fixed guide vanes, a high performance hi-directional air turbine having simple structure for wane energy conversion. A 3-dimensional incompressible viscous flow numerical analysis based on the full Reynolds-averaged Wavier-Stokes equations was made to investigate the internal flow behavior Numerical results ate compared with experimental data. As a result, a suitable choice for the one of design factors has been clarified.

This paper deals with the performance analysis and design of impulse turbine for OWC type wave energy plant. Numerical analysis was performed using a commercially-available software FLUENT. This parametric study includes the variation of several important parameters such as the number and shape of blades, hub ratio and tip clearance. Since parametric study at various flow coefficients requires considerable amount of computing tim, two-dimensional analysis was employed to find out optimum principal particulars in rather simple manner. Full three-dimensional calculation was also performed for several test cases to confirm the validity of two-dimensional approach. Up to the present stage, tentative result is well demonstrating the usefulness of 2-D analysis.

This paper describes numerical analysis of the impulse turbine with fixed guide vanes, a high performance bi-directional air turbine having simple structure for wave energy conversion. The numerical analysis of the 2-dimensional incompressible viscous flow based on the full Reynold-averaged Navier-Stokes equations which was made to investigate the internal flow behavior. Numerical results are compared with experimental data obtained by T.Setoguchi laboratory. As a result, as suitable choice of design factor has been clarified with the understanding of the internal flow from the numerical analysis.

As a numerical analysis technique to predict the radar cross section of an aircraft, a full wave method or an asymptotic method is mainly used. The full-wave method is expected to be relatively accurate compared with the asymptotic method. The asymptotic method is numerically efficient, and it is more widely used in the RCS analysis. However, the error that occurs when estimating the RCS using the asymptotic method is difficult to predict easily. In this paper, we analyze the allowable limits of physical optics by constructing a wedge-cylinder model and comparing the RCS prediction results between the method of moment and physical optics while changing the edge shape. Finally, this study proposes a criterion for allowable limit of physical optics in the RCS estimation.

In this paper, the energy transfer is associated with high frequency band and try to analysis the rectifier circuit structure and characteristics and find ways to maximum efficiency. Input signal at 13.56MHz is converted output DC signal with the experiments and measurements. Rectifier cirsuits can be divided into the half-wave, full-wave, bridge rectifier circuit. Research to the present with the passive components are carried out with a focus on efficiency improvements. Factors affecting the efficiency of rectification is dependent on the characteristics of the device. In this experiment, about 70% efficiency can be measured. By using an improved device for high efficiency could be obtained higher efficiency.

Spectral fatigue damage calculations has been performed on four ships in order to assess the effect that the probabilistic modeling of sea states has on the estimated fatigue life. The damage estimation method is based on the Miner- Palmgren fatigue damage formulation and a spectral approach is used to determine the necessary variances of the stress processes. Both the horizontal and vertical hull girder bending induced stress process together with the local water pressure induced stress process is taken into account. The wave scatter diagrams are applied in the calculations and their fatigue severity is assessed by analyzing the results obtained with the ten scatter diagrams and the four ships. All four ships are analyzed both in full load and ballast conditions and while traveling at both full and reduced speed. It is found that the fatigue severity of a wave scatter diagram is dependent on several parameters, some of these being the extreme wave hight extrapolated from the scatter diagram and the mean zero up-crossing period in conjunction with the ship length . Based on these three parameters and expression is derived in order to calculate one single number describing the fatigue severity of a scatter diagram with respect to a certain ship.

The resonator using the shielded coplanar waveguide [S.C.P.W.] bounded by the rectangular waveguide is designed. The resonant frequency is obtained by using the full-wave analysis method. The fringing capacitances of the open-ended center strip in the resonator are obtained from the equivalent circuits by 3 different methods.

External electromagnetic penetration occurs hazard effects on electronic and electrical systems. complementary full wave analysis method need much of analysis time, memory. But BLT method need less time, memory. BLT method need to decouple the system into each volumes and surfaces for setting tubes and junctions. When 1 V/m impulsive EMP noise penetrates into PCB strip line(w=2mm, L=6cm), ringing wave appears at each loads attached in strip-line. Its frequency is 91.8MHz.

A computational system for wave and viscous flow analysis (WAVIS) has been developed. The system includes a pre-processor, flow solvers and a post-processor. The pre-processor is composed of full form presentation, surface mesh and field grid generation. The flow solvers are for potential and viscous flow calculation. The post-processor has graphic utility for result analysis. All the programs are integrated in a GUI-launcher package. To validate the developed CFD programs of WAVIS, the calculated results for modern commercial hull forms are compared with measurements. It is found that the results from WAVIS are in good agreement with the experimental data, illustrating the accuracy of the numerical methods employed for WAVIS.
