This study was undertaken to develop the feed rate control system for the head feed thresher by making use of the microprocessor and to evaluate the response of the system to a various threshing conditions. It was verified the performance of the control system through experiments. Control conditions were determined based on the simulation results of control system. The control system set at RH=500rpm, RL=480rpm for the bundle feed was considered optimum to give a high threshing capability and still to stabilize the feeding seed regardless of the bundle size. The control system for the continuous spread feed set at the range of LH=15mm, and LL=12mm gave a high control performance for the feeding mass of 1.1Kg/m and lower tested. In addition, the feed rate proportionality constant should be set lower than one in order to keep the rotational speed of threshing cylinder within the range of 500~520rpm.

End-milling have been used in the industrial world because it is very effective to the manufacture of mechanical parts with various shape. Recently the end-milling processing is needed the high-precise technique with good surface roughness and rapid time in aircraft, automobile part and molding industry. Therefore this study carried to decide the optimum cutting condition for surface roughness and rapid manufacturing time using design of experiment and ANOVA. From the results of experimentation, surface roughness have an effect on cutting direction, spindle speed and depth of cut. And then the optimum condition used Taguchi design is upward cutting in cutting direction, 600rpm in spindle speed, 240mm/min feed rate, 2mm in axial depth of cut and 0.25mm radial depth of cut. By using design of experiment, it is effectively represented shape characteristics of working surface in end-milling.

In this study, expert system for the selection of the optimal cutting speed and feed rate was developed using NEXPERT system shell. The NC system has been usually used inefficiently because the input command, which contains cutting speed, feed-rate and the depth of cut, is fixed value which depends on principally operator's experience and machining handbooks providing a guideline for applicable ranges. On the other hand, the optimal cutting conditions vary with time, and depend on tool and machine characteristics, work materials, and cost factor and so on. In this study, if cutting factors, such as, cutting method, material type, cutting depth, and tool nose radius are specified, our expert system gets the information about the standard cutting speed form the cutting speed database, and provides optimum feed rate for these cutting conditions. This cutting speed database can be updated by inputting valid cutting speed which is obtained form the practices.

This study has been performed to develop an agricultural waste incinerator to combust the rice hull originated from RPC with the typical disposal treatment capacity of 30kg/h and to test performance of the developed incinerator. Experimental results are summarized as following. 1. The optimum feed rate of rice hull of the incinerator is 30kg/h with air ratio of 1.5. 2. The contents of $SO_2$ in flue gas is maximum 18ppm(when rice hull feed rate was 20kg/h and air ratio of 1.5), minimum 7ppm(when rice hull feed rate was 30kg/h and air ratio of 1.5) and average 11ppm. So there is no environmental pollution problem for the incinerating treatment of rice hull of the RPC. 3. The temperature of water of heat exchanger are $53^{circ} C$ and $62^{circ} C$ with water flow rate $3{ell}/min$ and $1.5{ell}/min$ at the optimum combustion condition, respectively. 4. According to theoretical energy calculation, the energy from rice hull combustion may be amounted as much as 80%~190% of energy supplied by kerosene required by RPC.

This study evaluated the SO2 adsorption characteristics using a continous moving bed system. Natural manganese oxide (NMO) reaction condition such as L/D the starting time of the NMO feed, feed rate, and flow rate of simulated flue gas, and NMO size were tested. The results showed that optimum L/D was 1.0 in this moving bed system. The higher the feeding rate was the higher the SO2 removal efficiency was and the higher the flow rate of simulated flue gas was the shorter the time to reach the euqilibirum concentration was. The final SO2 con-centration when it reaches the equilibrium concentration was not affected by the starting time of the NMO feed.

At present, industry and researchers are looking for ways to reduce the use of lubricants because of ecological and economical reasons. Therefore, metal cutting is to move toward dry cutting or semi-dry cutting. This paper presents an investigation into MQL(Minimum Quantity Lubrication) machining with the objective of deriving the optimum cutting conditions for the turning process of SM45C. To reach these goals several finish turning experiments were carried out, varying cutting speed, feed rate and oil quantity, with MQL. The surface roughness results of tests were measured and the effects of cutting conditions were analyzed by the method of Analysis of Variance(ANOVA). From the experimental results and ANOVA, it is found that a better surface roughness can be obtained by decreasing oil quantity and feed rate.

This paper describes an acoustic communication receiver structure, which is designed for QPSK (Quadrature Phase Shift Keying) signal with 25 kHz carrier frequency and 5 kHz symbol rate, and takes samples from received signal at 100 kHz sampling rate. Based on the described receiver structure, optimum design parameters, such as number of taps of FF (Feed-Forward) and FB (Feed-Back) filters and forgetting factor of RLS (Recursive Least-Square) algorithm, of joint equalizer are determined to minimize the BER (Bit Error Rate) performance of the joint equalizer output symbols when the acquisition data in shallow water using implemented acoustic transducers is decimated at a rate of 2:1 and then enforced to the input of receiver. The transmission distances are 1.4 km, 2.9 km, and 4.7 km. Analysis results show that the optimum number of taps of FF and FB filters are different according to the distance between source and destination, but the optimum or near optimum value of forgetting factor is 0.997. Therefore, we can reach a conclusion that the proper receiver structure could change the number of taps of FF and FB filters with the fixed forgetting factor 0.997 according to the transmission distance. Another analysis result is that there are an acceptable performance degradation when the 16-tap-length simple filter is used as a low-pass filter of receiver instead of 161-tap-length matched filter.

The objective of this study is to optimize the responses of the creep feed ceramic grinding process simultaneously by an off-1ine multicriteria optimization methodology. The responses considered as objectives are material removal rate, flexural strength, normal grinding force, workpiece surface roughness and grinder power. Alumina material was ground by the creep feed grinding mode using superabrasive grinding wheels. The process variables optimized for the above objectives include grinding wheel specification, such as bond type, mesh size, and grit concentration, and grinding process parameters, such as depth of cut and feed rate. A weighting method transforms the multi-objective problem into a single-objective programming format and then, by parametric variation of weights, the set of non-dominated optimum solutions are obtained. Finally, the multi-objective optimization methodology was tested by a sensitivity analysis to check the stability of the model.

In a multi-effect solar distiller, a feeding rate of seawater to each effect should be decreased as the effect number is increased. In previous studies, the feed rate of seawater was not reduced evenly between the effects, which is unreasonable, since the thermal energy input of each effect decreases by the same amount. In this work, numerical analysis was carried out in order to elucidate this discrepancy. The results showed that the amount of distillates produced was almost the same for both evenly and unevenly reduced flow rates between the effects. Optimum feed rates of seawater with various energy inputs from exhaust gas heat exchanger were also obtained. The results showed that the optimum feed rate of the first effect increased linearly or reached a steady state depending on the heat flux.
