This paper deals with the determination of the main design parameters on the efficient .betha. type stirling engine for marine use having the rhombic drive mechanism. This studies are performed as following. (1) The characteristics of $\beta$ type stirling engine, (2) The kinds of driving mechanism, (3) The structure of rhombic drive mechanism, (4) The reasons of making choice of the rhombic drive mechanism in $\beta$ type stirling engines, (5) Ultimately the purpose of this paper is to determine the main design parameters of $\beta$ type stirling engines for marine use having the rhombic drive mechanism. Finally, We can adapt the result of this paper in designing of $\beta$ type stirling engine driven by the rhombic drive mechanism.

Stirling cycle was actualized as so called ‘hot air engine’. It has been focused again lately as one of measures for exhaust gas emission problem, but as small power engine because of its method of heat addition. Recently marine power plants commenced to meet a stringent environmental restrictions by international convention, Marpol so that diesel engines as main and auxiliarly power plants are urged to be reformed to reduce NOx emission. Author devised a compression ignition engine as a large marine power plants combined with turbo charger based on stirling cycle, and analyzed the performance by means of basic thermodynamic calculation. Analyzed in this paper, were theoretical efficiency, mean effective pressure, required equivalence ratio, gas turbine power ratio, maximum pressure, states of turbo-charger inlet gas and exhaust gas, manifesting that the engine could be proposed as one of the future power plants of marine use.

Stirling engines are regarded as an efficient and promising power system for underwater devices. Currently, many researches on one-dimensional model is used to evaluate thermodynamic performance of Stirling engine, but in which there are still some aspects which cannot be modeled with proper mathematical models such as mechanical loss or auxiliary power. In this paper, a four-cylinder double-acting Stirling engine for Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUVs) is discussed. And a one-dimensional model incorporated with empirical equations of mechanical loss and auxiliary power obtained from experiments is derived while referring to the Stirling engine computer model of National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The P-40 Stirling engine with sufficient testing results from NASA is utilized to validate the accuracy of this one-dimensional model. It shows that the maximum error of output power of theoretical analysis results is less than 18% over testing results, and the maximum error of input power is no more than 9%. Finally, a Stirling engine for UUVs is designed with Schmidt analysis method and the modified one-dimensional model, and the results indicate this designed engine is capable of showing desired output power.

The simulation analyses of a dish solar power system with stirling engine in this study are applied to system performance prediction if four different test sites; Seoul, Pusan and Cheju in Korea, and Naha in Japan. The effects of difference of concentrator type such as monolithic and stretched-membrane construction on system efficiency are also evaluated. The total amount of generated power for a year depends on the site. However the total maximum system efficiency in every site is approximately 16% and there isnt striking difference. It is also found that the maximum collector efficiency of stretched-membrane concentrator is about 3∼15% lower than that of the monolithic type.

최근 저탄소 녹색성장 및 그린에너지 개발 정책에 힘입어 외연기관의 일종으로 스털링엔진에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있다. 스털링엔진은 크게 ${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$, ${\gamma}$-type의 3가지 방식으로 구분되어지며 그 중 ${\gamma}$-type 엔진의 설계가 용이하고 다양한 적용이 가능하다는 특징이 있음에도 실린더와 크랭크간의 접속거리 문제로 인하여 ${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$-type에 비하여 용적을 크게 차지하는 문제가 있었다. 이를 해결하기 위한 한 방안으로 주로 ${\alpha}$-type에 적용하는 Yoke crank를 응용하면 용적을 줄임과 동시에 실린더의 병렬화에도 유리하다. 금번 연구에서는 기존의 Ross Yoke crank 설계기법에서 개선하여 ${\gamma}$-type 스털링엔진의 Yoke crank 설계를 더욱 단순하고 효율적으로 적용할 수 있는 방법을 제시하였다.

잠수함추진방식은 크게 원자력 추진과 재래식 추진으로 나눌수 있다. 최근에는 재래식 추진방식과 하이브리드 개념으로 운용될 수 있는 AIP(Air Independent Propulsion)방식도 활발히 연구되고 있다. AIP추진으로는 폐회로 디젤기관추진(Closed Cycle Diesel Engine Propulsion), 연료전지추진(Fuel Cell Propulsion), 스터링기관추진(Stirling Engine Propulsion) 및 폐회로터빈추진(Closed Cycle Turbin Propulsion) 등이 있다. 이러한 잠수함 추진체계에 대해 앞으로 크게 세부분으로 나누어 그 현황과 발전추세를 살펴보고자 한다. 즉, 초기의 순수전기추진방식으로 불리는 재래식 추진체계, 재래식 추진방식의 한계를 극복하기 위해 최근 활발히 연구되고 있는 외기와 무관한 추진장치인 폐회로 추진체계, 그리고 궁극적으로는 에너지의 문제로 귀착되어 거의 무한대의 에너지원을 가지고 있는 원자력 추진체계로 구분하여 그 현황과 발전내용을 살펴 봄으로써 잠수함추진체계의 국내연구 개발방향정립에 조금이나마 보탬이 되었으면 합니다. 또한 차세대 추진장치로 불리는 전자유체 추진방식에 대해서는 한국박용기관 학회지 1993년 4월호 "박용전자유체(MHD) 추진장치"를 참조하시기 바랍니다.조하시기 바랍니다.

Submarines are weapons systems that have been proven to be useful in battle since World War I and have continued to improve the efficiency of propulsion systems in order to be used efficiently on the battlefield. In particular, countries that unable to utilize nuclear propulsion systems make efforts to increase the efficiency of Air Independent Propulsion systems, and typical examples are fuel cells, Stirling engines and MESMA. It is also expected that the development of new propulsion systems such as hydrogen-reformer fuel cells, metal-air fuel cell and direct combustion propulsion systems will continue, so the characteristics of these will be examined and the performance based on the published data be checked in this thesis.
