To improve the hydraulic control performance of ABS, it is necessary to establish an efficient control algorithm. And also it is necessary to ova]Hate a hydraulic modulator with solenoid valve quantitatively. In this paper, FEM and permeance method are used to analyze dynamic characteristics of outlet valve. In return, mathmatical modeling of a hydraulic modulator and operating pressure is presented, and the model parameters of an outlet valve are moving plunger, spring constant and orifice diameter. This study shows the way to improve the dynamic characteristic of an ABS outlet valve heavily depending on operating pressure. It is recommended that operating pressure should be justified at the first step toward the design to get the optimal design of an outlet valve.

This study conducted numerical simulations with the purpose of analyzing the impact of variations in outlet pressure conditions under extreme temperature conditions on the fluid dynamics and performance of a check valve utilized in hydrogen refueling systems. Under the extreme temperature conditions, changes in outlet pressure conditions of the check valve were investigated to analyze velocity distributions, pressure distributions, and temperature distributions in the operational and connection regions. The analysis results indicated that changes in outlet pressure had a significant influence on the internal temperature variation of the check valve. Furthermore, due to density variations in the connection region caused by the cooling effect of excessively cooled hydrogen, a bias in the primary flow direction towards the lower part of the valve outlet was observed in the outlet area. Through a comparison of the results of the valve's inherent flow performance, represented by the flow coefficient, it was observed that when the pressure difference between the inlet and outlet was below 0.37 MPa, sufficient flow was not ensured.

This study conducts the flow analysis on the basis of the impeller RPM of water measuring valve and differential pressure at valve inlet and outlet. The software used for the flow analysis is STAR-CCM+. In terms of the structure of the measuring valve, it has an impeller installed inside, and a metering chamber has inlet and outlet holes. The flow analysis on the water measuring valve drew the following conclusions: The flow rate and flow coefficient distribution according to the impeller RPM and differential pressure were on the linear increase. Regarding the flow field in the valve, the increased differential pressure had the highest velocity distribution, and complex flow field was generated in the measuring chamber. In particular, since the path between the inlet and outlet holes in the measuring chamber and the valve body was narrow, there was a section that had flow field interference. Given that, it showed the feature of the valve used for water measuring on the basis of the impeller RPM.

In this study, in order to understand contents and ranges of design for the EGR Valve test system for improving quality and performance of EGR Valve, engine performance and exhaust gas characteristic of 3L-class diesel engine was analyzed. Experimental operation of engine performance test was performed with 50% engine load and 20% and 100% opening ratio of EGR Valve. From test of performance and exhaust gas characteristic of engine, torque output of engine and temperature and pressure of inlet and outlet of EGR Valve were measured. As a result, for design of EGR Valve test system, input fluid flow of EGR Valve must be set the same amount with exhaust gas flow that was below of engine speed of 2,500 rpm, and temperature of inlet of EGR Valve must be set under about $510^{\circ}C$. And the difference of temperature between inlet and outlet of EGR Valve must be over than about $200^{\circ}C$. Exhaust gas of inlet and outlet of EGR Valve were under 1 bar that was not considerable, and the difference of pressure between inlet and outlet of EGR Valve were under 1 bar that could not effect on mechanical operation of EGR Valve.

Nonlinear adaptive control for the laboratory pressure-flow model. Control valves are installed on both sides. The pressure and the outlet flow rate are measured. The pressure and outlet flow rate are controlled variables and the control valve stem positions on both sides are the manipulated variables. The variation in both inputs will influence both controlled variables. The control performance is good, in spite of varying valve coefficients of inlet and outlet.

These days, many different types of valves are developed in the industrial area according to their use purpose. Multiple kinds of valves are installed to control a flow and pressure of the pipe conveying fluid. Valves serve as critical roles in land plants such as power plants. The performance of equipment varies depending on valve characteristics. In this study, the internal flow analysis on Cone-type valve is conducted to analyze flow field and secure a value of the flow coefficient Cv. According to the internal flow analysis, when the flow distribution of the middle cross-section of valve was open 100%, flow field was relatively and smoothly taken out. If it was open 50%, flow recirculation region increased and a little complex flow field occurred. Unlike ball valve or butterfly valve, this valve had flow recirculation in its outlet depending on a valve opening amount. Therefore, it was found that there was no flow recirculation in the outlet of Cone-type valve.

In this paper, a novel high power micropump using active check valves in place of conventional passive check valves employed at the inlet and outlet ports is presented. It actively controls open/close motion of check valves using piezoelectric actuator for expansion/contraction of pump chamber. A prototype micropump having an effective size of $17mm{\times}8mm{\times}11mm$ is fabricated. Frequency-dependent flow rate characteristics, bi-directional flow characteristics and load characteristics are experimentally investigated using a timing control method for valve closing motion. From the obtained experimental results, it is ascertained that optimal values of the phase shift compared to the voltage to drive pump chamber are $15^{\circ}$ for inlet check valve and $195^{\circ}$ for outlet. Based on the obtained results, a sheet-type active shuttle valve that has a unified valve-body for inlet and outlet check valves is proposed. A micropump with an effective size of $10mm{\times}10mm{\times}10mm$ is fabricated and the basic characteristics are experimentally investigated.

Pressure compensating temperature control valve(TCV) is one of the important control devices, which is used to maintain the constant temperature of working fluid in power and chemical plants. The ratio of cylinder hole diameters of inlet and outlet is the main design parameters of TCV. So this needs to be investigated to improve the function of control of temperature and void fraction. In this study, numerical analysis is carried out with various ratios of cylinder hole diameters of the inlet and outlet in the TCV. Especial1y, the distribution of the static pressure Is investigated to calculate the new coefficient($C_{\upsilon}$) and resistance coefficient(K). The governing equations are derived from making using of three-dimensional Naver-Stokes equations with standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model and SIMPLE algorithm. Using a commercial code, PHOENICS, pressure and flow fields in TCV are calculated with different inlet and outlet diameters of the cylinder hole for cold and hot water passages.
