When a high speed train enters a tunnel, wind speed passing through the train in a tunnel section becomes higher due to the reverse flow to the direction of the train. The higher wind speed gives more aerodynamic forces to the pantograph on the train. Therefore, it is necessary to perform aerodynamic and dynamic analyses in order to check whether the current collection of the high speed train, entering the tunnel, still remain permissible or not. In this paper, the aerodynamic analysis has been performed under the assumption that a high speed train at 300 km/h enters a tunnel whose cross sectional area Is 107/㎡ and length is 1000m. In consideration of the aerodynamic analysis results, the dynamic analysis has been performed based on the catenary and pantograph dynamic models in SEOUL-PUSAN high speed rail, using the GASENDO developed by RTRI. In addition, the fatigue life of the contact wire has been reviewed using the Goodman diagram. Based on the analysis results, it is concluded that the increase of the aerodynamic forces on the pantograph in the tunnel section shall not affect characteristics of current collection adversely except that motions of the pantograph may be constrained by bump-stops.

A centrifugal compressor of 50HP for reverse brayton cryocooler using neon as a coolent has been developed. It has relatively low total-to-total pressure ratio but mass flow rate is very small and the voting gas, neon, has greater specific heat ratio than air. It was essential to have very high rotational speed of 100,000 RPM. The efficiency of compressor has great effects on overall system and the COP of cryocooler. To meet the design requirement of the compressor efficiency and to minimized the required rotational speed, highly efficiency impeller having low specific speed was designed. To maintain the overall system efficient high, gas bearing of bump type and high speed permanent magnet synchronus motor was developed and adopted. In this paper, design and performance prediction results of the compressor impeller is presented.

The influence of aerated oil on high-speed journal bearing Is examined by thermohydrodynamic lubrication theory to lubrication with mixtures of a Newtonian liquid and an ideal gas. For this purpose, analytical models for viscosity and density of aerated oil in fluid-film bearing are applied. Convection to the walls, mixing with supply oil and re-circulating oil, and some degree of journal misalignment are considered. The results show that deliberate oil aeration can increase the load capacity of high-speed plain Journal bearing. And the load capacity is increased more by oil aeration under the conditions of shaft misalignment and higher speed.

Experimental analysis according to the plasma actuator design variables was performed in order to verify the effects of sliding discharge plasma on aerodynamic drag reduction of a high-speed train. For the study, sliding discharge plasma actuator and high-frequency, high-voltage power supply were developed and experimented to figure out the best design variables for highest ionic wind velocity which could reduce the drag force. And then, 5% reduced-scale model of a high-speed train was built for wind tunnel test to verify it. From the results, it was confirmed that sliding discharge plasma had contribution to reduce the drag force and it had the potential to be applied to real-scale trains.

Wall flush mounted injector with various orifice shape and injection conditions, were examined to enhance jet penetration and mixing in supersonic cross flow, in view of application to air-breathing accelerator vehicle. Orifice shapes with high aspect ratio were found to preferable for better penetration in the cold flow, and in the reacting flow for scramjet-mode combustion conditions. However, the effectiveness of the high aspect ratio was diminished in the dual-mode combustion conditions. Supersonic injection was applied to the high aspect ratio orifice, and further increase in penetration was observed in the cold and reactive flow for scramjet-mode combustion conditions, however, mixing enhancement due to mixing layer / pseudo-shock wave system interaction was dominant in the dual-mode combustion conditions. Difficulty in attaining ignition in the case with the high aspect ratio orifice was encountered during the combustion tests.

Flow characteristics of a compressible gas flow through a rotating disc-type rotary valve are investigated experimentally under various conditions. It is known that the mass flow rate through poppet valves of 4-stroke cycle engines and through piston valves of 2-stroke cycle engines decrease with increase in engine speed. Rotary valve is one means by which air maybe made to flow intermittently through a pipe. In this paper a exhaust system simulator of engine was used to experimentally analyzer the decrease inflow rate at high rotation speeds and to determine what variables, other than rotational speed, give rise to the observed behaviour. These variables have been included in an empirical equation which is representative of the measured flow characteristics.

It is of often important to accurately predict the flow-induced vibration or dynamic instability of a pipeline conveying internal high speed flow in advance, which requires a very accurate solution method. In this study, first the dynamic equations for the axial and transverse vibrations of a pipeline are reduced from a set of pipe-dynamic equations derived in the previous study and then the spectral element model is formulated. The accuracy of the spectral element method (SEM) is then verified by comparing its results with the results obtained by finite element method (FEM). It is shown that the present spectral element model provides very accurate solutions by using an extremely small number of degrees-of-freedom when compared with FEM. The dynamics of a sample pipeline is investigated with varying the axial tension and the speed of internal flow.

Visualization and PIV measurements of the symmetrical recirculation flow in a nanoliter-sized droplet have been performed using the micro PIV system. The airflow sweeps over the nanoliter-sized liquid droplet fixed in a microchannel and the frictional force drags the liquid on the round interface, which causes the symmetrical recirculation flow in the droplet. The internal recirculation flow in the droplet has been visualized and measured successfully. The results of micro PIV measurement show the maximum speed of the recirculation flow is up to 10 mm/s. The high-speed recirculation can enhance a stirring effect and generate strong shear in the droplet, resulting in acceleration of mixing.

There are high expectations of improving the performance of a centrifugal pump in the range of very low specific speed which has been developed recently for the use instead of a conventional positive displacement pump. However, even though elaborated studies has been done for the pump intensively, the pump performance has not increased so much. Also, it is difficult to find detailed information from published literatures for suction performance of the very low specific speed centrifugal pump. Therefore, this study is aimed to improve the pump performance more and to make clear suction performance of the very low specific speed centrifugal pump. Recircular flow stopper is installed on the pump casing wall at the region of impeller outlet to improve the pump performance and J-Groove is also installed at the inlet of the pump casing for the purpose of suppressing occurrence of cavitation as well as improving pump performance. The result suggests that the simultaneous improvement of pump performance and suction performance of the very low specific speed centrifugal pump is possible by adopting optimum configuration of the recirculation flow stopper and J-Groove.

The present investigation was undertaken to study the milkability characteristics of Holstein cows. Out of 6,660 initial records 4,607 records were finally included in the analysis after deleting some records with an abnormal range of values for the traits considered. These 4,607 Holstein cows belonged to a total of 122 herds located in a province in Korea. The 'LactoCorder' instrument was used to electronically record the milkability traits at the milking parlor. A total of 19 traits were studied which were broadly classified into milk yield, milking speed, milking time and the electrical conductivity related traits. The SAS 9.1 statistical software was used to carry out analyses. The average maximum milk flow per minute was 3.21 kg/min, while the average milking speed during the main milking process (DMHG) had a mean value of 2.30 kg/min. The total milk yield was 14.14 kg, 62% of which was milked during the first three minutes of the milking. The average total milking time was 8.23 min. Among the three phases of the main milking process, the time of stable milk flow had the longest time (2.97 min) followed by the time at the decline phase (2.62 min). The average time taken to reach the plateau phase was 1.08 min, which can still be reduced further through improved managemental practices. Among milk yield traits, milk yield during the first two (MG2) and three (MG3) minutes of milking had high positive correlation with milking speed traits and negative correlations with almost all the milking time traits except time of incline in milk flow from 0.5 kg/min till the attainment of the plateau phase (tAN). Milking speed traits had negative correlations with total milking time, time at main milking process, time at plateau and with the time at decline. Since there was medium to high negative correlation between the milking speed and the time at plateau, there is a need for selection of cows which have intermediate milking speed so that it could require less milking time and also the optimum (higher and longer) plateau time. Proper pre-stimulation and avoiding over milking will help in further reducing the milking time and thus will add to the net profit of the farmer.
