Now days, various types of ships are operated to transport both cargo and passengers all around the world. Most of the important auxiliary machinery installed in those ships is fluid machinery such as pumps, compressors, and fans. A large percentage of fluid machinery is pumps which are classified as turbo and positive displacement pumps. This paper analyzes only turbo pumps out of the two types. This thesis has two aims: (a) to analyze the present status of pumps installed in merchant and training ships and (b) to find the correlation among sea going pump kW, port pump kW, GE kW, ME MCR, number of pumps, ME kgf, pump kgf. Based on the ship's type, my paper seeks to find special characteristics as a result of analyzing head, flow rate, and kW. Moreover this paper analyzes and compares number of pumps, rpm of pumps, pump kW/ME MCR and pump kW/GE kW under the conditions of seagoing and berthing according to the ship's type. In conclusion, (1) For the exact comparison, information on the head, kW, flow rate, number of pumps by ship's type, the pump installation status of the Merchant Ships and Training Ships were tabulated and compared in this paper. (2) In order to qualify one ship as the delegate ship, several methods were used. The result of the examination indicates that the chosen ships could be justified as a suitable representation of ships of their own type. (3) The correlation of several values(total pump kW, port pump kW, GE kW, seagoing pump kW, pump weight, ME weight, ME MCR, number of pumps and ME kW) could be obtained.

The performance characteristics of heat pump system using the new refrigerant subcooling system were investigated. The new heat pump system has the ice storage tank to accumulate the latent heat of the refrigerant during the night-time. The heat is released to subcool the saturated refrigerant liquid at the outlet of a condenser in the daytime. The experimental apparatus is a well-instrumented heat pump which consisted of a refrigerant loop and a coolant loop. The test sections(condenser and evaporator) were made of tube-in-tube heat exchanger with the horizontal copper tube of 12.7[mm] outer diameter and 9.5[mm] inner diameter. The evaporating temperatures ranged from $-5[^{\circ}C]$ to $0[^{\circ}C]$ and the subcooling degrees of the refrigerant varied from $15[^{\circ}C]$ to $25[^{\circ}C]$. The test of the ice storage was carried out at evaporating temperature of $-10[^{\circ}C]$ and the ice storage mode is an ice-on-coil type. The main results were summarized as follows ; The refrigerant mass flow rate and compressor shaft power of the heat pump system were independent of the subcooling degrees. The cooling capacity o the heat pump system increases as the evaporating temperature and subcooling degree increases. The cooling capacity of the heat pump system is about 25 to 30% higher than that of normal heat pump system. The COP of the heat pump system which subcooled the refrigerant liquid at the outlet of the condenser is about 28% higher than that of the normal heat pump system.

Open channel type regenerative pump has been used in various industrial fields. It generates high pressure with low flow rate. However, it has low efficiency because of its complex flow pattern, We studied performance experiments and 3D numerical flow analysis of a regenerative pump. Through the numerical analysis, we could get the internal flow pattern and profile of a regenerative pump. Also, we examined leakage flow effects due to the gap between casing and impeller and stripper clearance. For the numerical analysis verification, we performed experiments and they had similar tendency at the design point.

A mini turbo-pump having 44mm diameter impeller for hydraulic power control have been tested to evaluate hydraulic performance and losses. The characteristics of the losses such as mechanical, friction, balancing rib losses were investigated. The investigation revealed that the friction loss is relatively large but the balancing rib loss small. It was found that the hydraulic efficiency of the pump at design point is very low($27\%$) due to low specific speed and large friction losses. A computational fluid dynamics(CFD) method also has been utilized for performance prediction of the mini turbo-pump to compare the computed results with the test data.

In order to improve the power of hydride heat pump, prototype heat pump was constructed using $Zr_{0.95}Ti_{0.05}Cr_{0.9}Fe_{1.1}$-$Zr_{0.9}Ti_{0.1}Cr_{0.6}Fe_{1.4}$ which had very good hydrogenation properties. The power changed with operating parameter such as cycle time, air flow rate, and temperature of hot air was investigated. The power shows maximum value with cycle time. The power increased with air flow rate and temperature of hot air. The power of the heat pump was $65-72 Kcal/Kg-alloy{\cdot}h$ under optimum operating condition, which was superior to that the system using $LaNi_{0.9}Al_{0.3}-MmNi_{4.15}Al_{0.66}Fe_{0.2}$ alloy pairs.

An expansion device plays an important role in optimizing the heat pumps by controlling refrigerant flow and balancing the system pressures. Conventional expansion devices are being gradually replaced with electronic expansion valves due to increasing focus on comfort, energy conservation, and application of a variable speed compressor. In addition, the amount of refrigerant charge in a heat pump is another primary parameter influencing system performance. In this study, the flow characteristics of the expansion devices are analyzed, and the effects of refrigerant charge amount on the performance of the heat pump and the variation of compressor speed are investigated at various operating conditions. Mass flow rate through capillary tube, short tube orifice, and EEV was strongly dependent on the upstream pressure and subcooling. The heat pump system is very sensitive with a variation of refrigerant charge amount. The performance of it can be optimized by adjusting the flow rate through expansion device to maintain a constant superheat at all test conditions.

This paper describes the shaft vibration phenomena measured on a pump-turbine of a pumped storage power plant. The pump-turbine runs at a rotational speed of 450 rpm (7.5 Hz). The power output (load) of the pump-turbine is varied from 100 to 300 MW in the generating mode. The magnitude of the shaft vibration highly depends on the power load. The vibration magnitude of the shaft is very high in the middle load zone from 170 to 210 MW, elsewhere the vibration is low. From nitration spectra, it is shown that the frequency of major nitration in that load zone is 2.5 Hz which is approximately $34\%$ of the shaft rotating speed in Hz. This frequency component does not occur below and above that load zone. This subsynchronous vibration is caused by the flow induced disturbance due to spiral vortex flow downstream of the pump-turbine runner. Furthermore, the shaft vibration is highly decreased due to an increased bearing preload.

An electric fan for cooling high density electronic devices is limited and operated in very low efficiency. The corona discharge is utilized as the driving mechanism for an ionic gas pump, which allows for air flow control and generation with low noise and no moving parts. These ideal characteristics of ionic pump give rise to variety applications. However, all of these applications would benefit from maximizing the flow velocities and yields of the ionic pump. In this study, a needle-mesh type ionic pump has been investigated by focusing on the radius of curvature of corona needle points elevating the ionic wind velocity and efficiency. It is found that the radius of curvature of the corona discharge needle point influences significantly to produce the ionic wind and efficiency. As a result, an elevated ionic wind velocity and increased ionic wind generation yield can be obtained by optimized the radius of curvature of the corona needle electrode.

Cooling technologies using natural and forced convection are limited and operated in very low efficiency. The corona discharge is utilized as the driving mechanism for an ionic pump, which allows for air flow control and generation with low noise and no moving parts. These ideal characteristics of ionic pump give rise to variety applications. However, all of these applications would benefit from maximizing the flow velocities and efficiencies of the pumps. In this study a needle-mesh type ionic pump, with a ring type third electrode installed just near the needle point, has been investigated by focusing on elevating the ionic wind velocity and efficiency. As a result, the enhanced ionic wind velocity and increased power yield can be obtained with the proposed ionic pump with the third electrode.
