  • Analysis: of the propulsion performance considering ship motion in waves is an important factor for the efficient operation of a ship. The interaction between the propeller and the free surface due to the ship motion in waves has a significant influence on the propulsion performance. However, most recent studies regarding the hydrodynamic performance of ships in waves focus on the added resistance, and experimental and numerical data on the propulsion performance considering the ship motion in waves are very rare. In this study, a numerical investigation of the nominal wake in regular head waves is performed for a KVLCC2 model ship for the fully-loaded condition. Phase-averaged wake fields for one period are compared with experimental data measured using Stereo PIV, showing good agreement. The effect of the ship motion on the characteristics of the wake field and the axial velocity in the propeller plane are investigated while varying the wave length.

  • In this study, a performance simulation program for a turbojet engine using SIMULINK, which can provide the GUI(Graphic User Interface) environment, was newly proposed. Performance analysis results using the SIMULINK performance program were compared with them using the FORTRAN performance program that was previously developed. According to comparison result, it was noted that performance analysis results between two programs have little bit big difference. This difference seems to be due to different component matching algorithm at each program, it will be improved later.

  • A numerical method for prediction of the Windmilling start performance of micro-turbojet engine has been developed. The method incorporates the available loss correlations and analyses for the estimation of the performance of the major engine components. It has been applied to the micro turbojet engine with the mixed type compressor. The starting performance characteristics on the on/off-design regions have been analysed. Additionally, the sensitivity of each design parameter which has an effect on Windmilling start performance has been analysed.

  • The end effect of a linear induction motor (LIM) has been known for several decades, especially in high speed operation. The exit part of the primary is not dealt as extensively as the entry part because of its minor effect. However, the exit part is one of the keys to weaken the dolphin effect, which occurs in high speed operation. In this paper, the concept of the virtual primary core is introduced, and chamfering of the primary outlet teeth is proposed to minimize the longitudinal end effect at the exit zone. For this, LIM for the high-speed train is designed and analyzed by using finite element method. Results confirm that chamfering can improve thrust performance effectively.

  • A propulsion system apparatus is needed for a railroad vehicle to test and estimate propulsion performance. The electrical inertia simulator to facilitate the development and testing of propulsion systems, is presented in this paper. It is based on a vector-controlled induction motor drive supplied from the AC mains through a double PWM converter that provides desirable features such as bi-directional power flow, nearly unity power factor and low harmonic factor at the AC mains. A theoretical analysis is first presented, followed by a detailed simulation study to assess the overall system performance under dynamic conditions.
