  • The naval vessel must moves rolling, pitching, yawing by wave when it runs in ocean. Some narrow beam antenna needed position compensation by stabilizer or gimbal for best performance. This paper presents the precision position control for heavy weight(130kg) in roll and pitch direction. Generally it's called for gimbal. This gimbal uses P-I controller, and it's driven by linear actuator and servo motor. This gimbal gets ship's gyro signal and synchro, which have the absolute angle value. Some other similar equipments are driven by huge hydraulic power, but this gimbal is driven by small servo motor. This control loop gets the following procedure repeatedly; reading ship gyro and gimbal synchro, calculating compensated error and control output, driving motor and actuator The performance of gimbal system was satisfied.

  • Aerodynamic torque of wind turbine is highly nonlinear due to the nonlinear interactions between wind and blade. The aerodynamic nonlinearity is represented by nonlinear power and torque coefficients which are functions of wind speed, rotational speed of rotor, and pitch angle of blade. It is essential from the viewpoint of understanding and analysis of dynamic characteristics for wind turbine to linearize the aerodynamic torque and define aerodynamic nonlinear parameters as derivatives of aerodynamic torque with respect to the three parameters. In this paper, a linearization method of the aerodynamic torque from power coefficient is presented through differentiating it by the three parameters. And steady-state values of three aerodynamic nonlinear parameters according to wind speed are obtained and their nonlinear characteristics are investigated.

  • An experimenal study on flight control of high-speed AEV(Aero-levitation Electric Vehicle) scale model in wind-tunnel is conducted. The AEV is to fly at very low altitude in predesigned track so that it is always under the wing-in-ground effect. The experiment is intended to fly the scale model to follow the predesigned altitude schedule while holding its attitude (pitch, roll, and yaw). Especially, the altitude changes for climb, cruise, and descent with constant pitch angle are most important maneuvers. The experiment shows that the required mission flights can be performed with appropriate sensors, processors, and actuators.

  • Numerical solutions of Stokes flow through periodic arrays of cylinders were sought using Darcy's law and homogenization theory. Drag and lift forces of each cylinder were computed for various attack angles and pitch-to-diameter ratios. It was found that drag force decreased as principal pressure gradient direction deviated from array direction and that drag force increased exponentially as pitch-to-diameter ratio approached unity. Similar tendency was found in lift force except that lift force increased and then decreased in quadratic manner as attack angle varied.

  • An roll-pitch-yaw integrated autopilot for missiles is designed for compensation of dynamics coupling. The proposed autopilot is based on the classical control technique. The gains of the proposed autopilot are optimized by using co-evolutionary augmented Lagrangian method(CEALM). Several cost functions are compared in order to find feasible control gains. For a case that a bank angle of missiles is unknown, multiple models are used in the autopilot optimization. In nonlinear simulations as well as linear simulations, the proposed autopilot provided good performances.

  • Heat transfer and pressure drop on the air side of a plate-louvered fin heat exchanger with new shape of louver fin have been investigated experimentally. Water is employed inside the flat tube to transfer heat with air for convenience. This problem is of particular interest in the design of a plate-louvered heat exchanger. The effect of air flow rate, water flow rate and water temperature on pressure drop as well as heat transfer in air side are studied in detail. The present results showed a good agreement qualitatively with the previous results in general. Based on the experimental data, f-factor and j -factor correlations of the present louvered-fin are suggested. It is also found that heat transfer could be enhanced with new shape of louver fin, compared with the conventional louvered-fin, while the f-factor remains unchanged.

  • An experimental investigation on the static and dynamic stall characteristics of elliptic airfoil was performed by PIV velocity field measurements. The flow Reynolds number was $3.13{\times}10^5$ and the reduced frequency of the pitch oscillation ranged from 0.075 to 0.125. The onset of static stall was caused by boundary layer separation which started at the trailing edge and progressed toward the leading edge. However, dynamic stall was caused by the vortex shed at the leading edge region and the flow field showed a vortex dominated flow with turbulent separation and alternate vortex shedding. The increase of reduced frequency increased the dynamic stall angle of attack and intensified the flow hysteresis in the down-stroke phase.

High-capacity system performs blade pitch check and main point check, but because pitch angle is fixed in case of capacity system, development efficiency drops. Must do to achieve variableness inside control about change of manners to be acted in maximum electric power point hereupon. Treatise that see hereupon proves this theoretically, and proved validity through 400 [W] experiments.

  • In metal cutting various types of chips are produced in consequence of cutting conditions. Flow-type chips have been studied in most cases because they are easier to be analyzed, but the actual surfaces of chips are not smooth, but crushed. This paper deals with saw-toothed chips, special types of flow-type chips, which have deep concaves and high convexes and sharp angles on the free surface. I tried to establish the theory of saw-toothed chip mechanism through experimental observation, that is, the mathmatical model of the cutting energy and cutting mechanism through the geometrical observation of the chips by using a microscope. The results obtained are as follows: 1. The mechanism of saw-toothed chips is diffenent from that of general flow-chips. 2. In the case of saw-toothed chips, the shear angle must be measured by the hypotenuse angle and the rake angle, and the shear angle is more affected by the rake angle than by the hypotenbuse angle. 3. The friction angle is represented by .beta. = . pi. /4+ .alpha./ sub n/- .phi. which is different from Merchant's equation. 4. The pitch and the slip are greatly influenced by depth of cut, but the influence of the rake angle on it is small. 5. The normal stress and the shear stress on the shear plane decrease with the increase of the cutting depth, and they are almost independent on the variation of a rake angle. 6. The unit friction energy on the tool face, the unit shear energy on the shear plane, and the total cutting energy per unit volume decrease with the increase of rake angle and cutting depth.

  • The control circuit of the CPP applied to FFX Batch-I and LST-II may be capable of generating a backward pitch even when the grounding phenomenon occurs in the other system. The purpose of this study was to improve the CPP control circuit to maintain the pitch even in the event of grounding. Since the CPP control circuit changes the propeller angle with the voltage difference input, it has a design structure that can be vulnerable if the input voltage fluctuates instantaneously. In order to solve the above problem, a terminating resistor is applied to the end of the control wire and a signal converter is applied between the control wires, as a way to improve the CPP control circuit design. In order to verify that there is no problem in improving the CPP control circuit design, the CPP pitch change control was tested in the actual sailing commissioning with LST-II. Since the command pitch value and the feedback pitch value are very similar to each other, it is confirmed that the CPP control circuit is suitable for the control signal transmission because there is no problem in transmitting the control signal.
