This paper is concerningon the development of cross-flow fan (CFF) for vehicles. CFF is widely usedhome-appliance products. This work mainly Intends developing CFF only for an automobile. In order to do that, new design involving blade shapes is proposed with enough performance for the operation. Spacially three steeps are proceeded for blade design. injection conditions for manufacturing, and capacity test for fluid mechanics. The present methodologies are to find optimal design for the blades and conditions for the injection process. This project has continued since last two years and finally succeeded.

This study was to investigate performance of position, basic controls and additional control for man-machine interface on a 3-point hitch of a tractor. The developed additional control was one-touchup, backup, turnup, liftarm limited, PTO on/off and an external control. As a result of experiment, maximum steady state error of response system was lower than $0.8^{\circ}$ and this result showed the function operated normally because the dead band of system set was ${\pm}1^{\circ}$. There was no abnormal situation by switch operation and sensor signal during the performance test. The results of experiment showed the characteristics of the response was sufficient to be used as the position and additional control system for tractors.

This study analyzed the influence of firing biogas on the performance and operation of a gas turbine combined heat and power (CHP) system. A reference CHP system designed with natural gas fuel was set up and off-design simulation was made to investigate the impact of firing biogas in the system. Changes in critical operating parameters such as compressor surge margin and turbine blade temperature caused by firing biogas were examined, and a couple of operating schemes to mitigate their changes were simulated. Part load operation of the biogas-fired system was compared with that of natural-gas fired system, and it was found that as long as the two system produce the same electric power output, they exhibit nearly the same heat recovery.

This paper presents an improved droop method which minimizes the voltage droop of a parallel-connected power supply Conventionally, the droop method has been used to achieve a simple structure and no-interconnections among power sources. However, it has a trade-off between output voltage regulation and load sharing accuracy In this paper, the droop is minimized with a current and droop gain control using steady-stage estimation. The proposed method can achieve both good voltage regulation and good load sharing. A design example of two 10㎸, 100㎃ parallel modules is made and tested to verify the proposed current-sharing method.

This paper demonstrates the dynamic behaviors of paralleled high power IGBTs using trench and fieldstop technologies. Four IGBTs are paralleled and standard deviation is adopted to represent the imbalance. Experiments are conducted under three different operation conditions and at different temperatures ranging from $-25^{\circ}C$ to $125^{\circ}C$. The experimental results show that operation at very low and very high temperatures usually aggravates the switching behaviors. There is a trade-off between the balance and the losses at low temperatures. These results can help in the design of heat sinks in paralleling applications confronting very low temperatures.

This paper describes the jamming characteristics of a stand-off jammer jamming the LPI radar. The LPI radar reduces the side lobes of the receiving antenna to reduce the effect of jamming. It is easy a radar to predict the effect of jamming on a self-protection jammer where the jammer is in the same position as the target. However, for stand-off jammer jamming at different locations from the target, the prediction of jamming effect is complex. In this paper, the jamming effect of LPI radar is analyzed using signal to jamming ratio and burn-through range. Also, when the antenna's side lobe decreases below -30 dB, the stand-off jamming effect in the side lobe direction is weak. So we proposed a new jamming method for the main lobe and analyzed the jamming effect. This study is expected to be useful for the design and operation of aircraft jammers.

Required power and solar array sizing of KOMPSAT-2 have been analyzed by ASTRIUM and KARI in November, 2000. There are Electrical Power Subsystem(EPS) design discrepancies between ASTRIUM and Korea Aerospace Research Institute(KARI) according to heritage program, EPS operation concepts, power source and the characteristic of the electrical boxes. To design the power system of KOMPSAT-2, ASTRIUM has used the EPS design of the CHAMP and GlobalStar program. But SSTI, TOMS-EP and KOMPSAT-1's design concepts has been used for KOMPSAT-2 EPS design by the KARI. To get the design conclusion, there are many trade-off meetings for the EPS sizing using each sides' heritage program and EPS operation concept. And the EPS design factors and approaching methods have been reviewed and discussed. In addition the EPS design results from ASTRIUM and KARI are summarized in this paper.

Some kinds of precision optical systems for spaceborne high resolution cameras were designed at preliminary design level and an optical design for a hyperspectral imager was performed for its development model. A Cassegrain-based catadioptric system and an unobscured reflective triplet system are illustrated in detail for spaceborne high resolution electro optical cameras which have performance of 5m resolution at an altitude of 685km and the design are evaluated in its spot-diagram and MTF to prove they have good performance enough to implement the requirements for realistic satellite payload taking the fabrication conditions and the on-orbit operation into consideration. For the development of hyperspectral imager as a next-generation payload, an optical system has been designed and elaborated. It can be divided into two parts, a catoptric telescope forming an off-axis 2 mirror type and a dispersive spectrometer which comprises collimator, grating and reimaging lens cell. From its optical design to the system characteristics are shown with the MTF performance reaching 25% approximately.

In continuous annealing line (CAL), POSCO, the center position control (CPC) is an essential technique that renders the steel-strip to pass at the center of a roll in order to prevent the strip from skewing or breaking. The CPC algorithm currently installed on the steering roll in the heating section of CAL is to control the strip position by using the reverse phase of error from the center position, without considering the dynamics of strip horizontal movement. Such algorithm may, unfortunately, require a manual operation occasionally when the range of strip input becomes wide, causing the dynamics 0 be dominant. Other PID-type control is rarely used in automatic operation because the excess of response may occur when the discontinuous points such as welding joints pass through rolls. In this paper, we identify the CPC system by using off-line data and design a compensator for the excessive dynamics by using the adaptive inverse control. Simulation result depicts the improved reliability of the proposed CPC system.

In order to achieve a good and competitive FPSO design, the building cost and the motion performances are the two most critical and conflicting KPIs to be considered. In this study, the author's previous work (Lee, et al., 2021) on the optimization of an FPSO's hull dimensions with 1800 MBBLs storage capacity at Brazil field was extended using a multi-objective parametric optimization with the hull steel weight and the operability which are closely related to the building cost and the operational cost during the lifetime, respectively. For the purpose of more realistic and practical FPSO design, the constraints related to crew comfort and the safe helicopter take-off and landing operation were newly added. Also, the green water on deck was calculated accurately to check the suitability of the designed freeboard height using a newly developed real-time calculation module for the relative wave elevations. With aids of this updated optimization formulation, we presented multiple optimal FPSO dimensions expressed as a Pareto set which aids FPSO designers to conveniently select the practical and competitive dimensions. The excellence of the developed approach was verified by comparing the optimization results with those of FPSOs dimensioned for operation at West Africa and Brazil field.
