A new energy conversion system which converts wind energy directly to heat instead of transforming it to electric power beforehand is suggested in this study. The new energy conversion system is composed of two big parts divided by their functions. One of them is a wind turbine part, and another is the heat energy conversion part. The object of this study is confined only to the heat energy conversion part, so the wind turbine is replaced with an electric motor for the convenience of experiment. In the experimental process, pressure difference at the hydraulic pump, revolution speed of the hydraulic pump, temperature at a few points on the oil circuit and the water circuit are measured at time intervals of five minutes. And integral values of input energy to the system and stored energy in the system is investigated.

According to the demand of the high productivity, the interest of manufacturing skills is growing in industrial society. Especially the high speed spindle in machining center becomes important these days. The exchange time of the tool in machining center usually calls T-T(tool to tool) time. Detailly explaning, It is influenced by the unclamping time. Affecting factors of the unclamping time are various(the hydraulic system, drawbar mass, a flow meter, disc spring, a piston diameter, pipe diameters, and so on). In this study, we could find factors that decrease the unclamping time and verify it for softwares.(AMESim $4.0^{(R)}$ & visual Nastran $4D^{(R)}$)

The transmission control method of small forklift is classified into pilot control method and direct control method. In pilot control method, the hydraulic circuit which consists a lot of components is very complex so the production process is too costly and time consuming. The direct control method contains fewer components that can be configured to simple hydraulic circuit. It has more advantages because the shift sensitivity of transmission is changed easily via the input profile. In this paper, the controller design and the input profile for system are studied to apply to the direct control method. The input profile consists of Fill section, Hold section and Ramp section. The characteristic of each section is obtained through experiment. As the result, the shift sensitivity and starting performance are effected by Fill section and Hold section.

Purpose: During the start-up period, the response time of a hydraulic system increases in the winter because of the increased oil viscosity caused by the cold weather. The problems of delayed tractor starting and excessive wear of the clutch disk occur for these reasons. Therefore, this study develops an analysis model using the commercial hydraulic analysis program AMESim to examine the characteristics of delays in power shuttle starting at different oil temperatures. Methods: In the experiment, a tractor was stationary on a flat surface with the engine running at a constant speed of 1,080 rpm. The forward lever was then pressed to activate the power shuttle at three different oil temperatures, and the pressure changes were measured. The pressure on the forward clutch control valve was measured by a pressure gauge installed on the hydraulic line supplied to the transmission from the main valve. An analysis model was also developed and verified with actual tests. Results: The trend of the simulated pressures of the power shuttle is similar to that of the measured pressures, and a constant modulation period was observed in both the simulation and test results. However, the difference found between the simulation and test results was the initial pressure required to overcome the initial force of the clutch spring. Conclusions: This study also examines the characteristics of the delayed startup of the power shuttle at different oil temperatures through simulations.

Development of a extra-large hydraulic breaker, which could be used for a 100 ton-class excavator were carried out Hot-firing tests were carried out. Before designing a hydraulic breaker, the analysis method to predict the performance such as impact energy and impact rate were studied. Based on the analysis result, the design and manufacture of a extra-large hydraulic breaker were performed, and the breaker were confirmed to operate successfully. The data of impact energy and impact rate were measured during the operation of the breaker, and were compared with the analysis result. The analysis result of impact rate anticipated well the test data, but that of impact energy showed a large difference with the test data. The extra-large hydraulic breaker were successfully developed and the analysis method of impact energy will be updated taking into account friction, hydraulic circuit, etc.

This study aimed to analyze the performance of hydraulic systems for dental chair when long working hours makes the temperature of hydraulic fluid rise. The study was carried out in the following manner. First, 'cylinder's clearance' was reflected in the three kinds of hydraulic circuits, which were developed through the preceding study, in order to analyze oil leak. Second, 12 cases of simulations comprised of the up and down of cylinders were carried out. Third, it was determined whether the cylinder velocity of dental chair surpasses 1cm/s required in the development even in the hydraulic fluid temperature of 60℃. In conclusion, this study used SimulationX to verify the performance stability at high temperatures using three types of hydraulic circuits designed to develop a Korean unit chair.

In this paper, an equivalent brake hydraulic circuit with a piezoelectric hydraulic pump was constructed, and load pressure control for better pressurization/depressurization characteristics was conducted. To understand pressurization/depressurization characteristics of the equivalent hydraulic circuit, the relation between the load pressure and the input voltage was revealed experimentally. Experiments were also conducted to observe effect of the solenoid valve on depressurization characteristics. In the pressurization experiment, it was validated that transient response time required to achieve desired load pressure may be reduced through voltage control to change pressurization gradient. By applying the valve on/off time control and voltage control, it was also possible to reduce response time in the depressurization process. Therefore, transient response time may be improved within 10ms for pressurization and within 30 ms for depressurization using the control technique suggested in this study. The load pressure control method proposed in this study is useful for controlling load pressure of a hydraulic brake system with the piezoelectric hydraulic pump.

유압시스템은 1795년 J. Bramah가 물을 작동유체로 사용한 Press를 개발해 사용한 이래 2세기 이상 인간생활의 다양한 분야에 이용되어 왔다. 초기 유압시스템은 쉽게 구할 수 있고, 저장이 용이한 물을 작동유체로 사용하였다. 그러나 물은 부식성, 낮은 점성계수로 인한 저 윤활성과 많은 누설량, 그리고 저온에서의 동결 등과 같은 문제점을 가졌다. 당시에는 물에 대한 부식성이 없는 재료나 물의 누설을 막을 수 있을 만큼의 가공기술이 부족하였으므로 이러한 물의 문제점을 해결하기 위해 1906년 Wiliams와 Janney가 물 대신 기름을 작동유체로 사용하기 시작했다.(중략)

A newly developed type PCHE(Printed Circuit Heat Exchanger), which has a longitudinal corrugation flow channel, was fabricated using etching and diffusion bonding to evaluate its hydraulic performance. The pressure drop characteristics obtained from the experimental results are presented and the local friction factors associated with different hydraulic diameters and inclination angles are discussed. The results of a three-dimensional numerical simulation are presented, conducted using commercial CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) software at lower Reynolds number range. The numerical results were validated by experimental data obtained from helium gas experimental apparatus. The results of CFD prediction show fairly good agreement with the experimental data.

In this study, we evaluate the thermal-hydraulic performance and economics of Printed Circuit Heat Exchanger (PCHE) according to the channel types and associated shape variables for the design of recuperators with Sodium-cooled Fast Reactors (SFRs). To perform the evaluations with variables such as the Reynolds number, channel types, tube diameter, and shape variables, a code for the heat exchanger is developed and verified through a comparison with experimental results. Based on the code, the volume and pressure drop are calculated, and an economic assessment is conducted. The zigzag type, which has bending angle of 80° and a tube diameter of 1.9 mm, is the most economical channel type in a SFR using CO₂ as the working fluid. For a SFR using N₂, we recommend the airfoil type with vertical and horizontal numbers of 1.6 and 1.1, respectively. The airfoil type is superior when the mass flow rate is large because the operating cost changes significantly. When the mass flow rate is small, volume is a more important design parameter, therefore, the zigzag type is suitable. In addition, we conduct a sensitivity analysis based on the production cost of the PCHE to identify changes in optimal channel types.
