In this study, the improvement of cooling capacity by applying gas injection technique in a two-stage heat pump using R410A was experimentally investigated. A twin rotary type compressor with gas injection was applied to the heat pump system. The optimum refrigerant charge for the injection and the non-injection cycles was selected to achieve the maximum COP at the cooling standard condition. The injection cycle showed less optimum refrigerant charge than that of the non-injection cycle. The cooling performances of the injection and the non-injection cycles were measured and compared by varying compressor frequency from 40 to 90 Hz. The cooling capacity of the gas injection cycle was 1.6% -11.3% higher than that of the non-injection cycle. The COP of the gas injection cycle was 13.7% to 28.9% higher than that of the non-injection cycle at the same cooling capacity. The heat pump system showed stable operation after 30% of the injection valve opening.

Since operating conditions are significantly different for heating and cooling mode operations in a $CO_2$ heat pump system, it is difficult to optimize the performance of the $CO_2$ cycle. In addition, the performance of a $CO_2$ heat pump is very sensitive to outdoor temperature and gascooler pressure. In this study, the cooling and heating performances of a variable speed $CO_2$ heat pump with a twin-rotary compressor were measured and analyzed with the variations of EEV opening and compressor frequency. As a result, the cooling and heating COPs were 2.3 and 3.0, respectively, when the EEV opening was 22%. When the optimal EEV openings for heating and cooling were 28% and 16%, the cooling and heating COPs increased by 3.3% and 3.9%, respectively, over the COPs at the EEV opening of 22%. Beside, the heating performance was more sensitive to EEV opening than the cooling performance. As the compressor speed decreased by 5 Hz, the cooling COP increased by 2%, while the heating COP decreased by 8%.

Magnetic bearings have been widely used to support rotors without any physical contact. This however, requires the control of five degrees-of-freedom and needs a separate driving motor. This paper introduces selfbearing motors which use the combination of a rotary motor and a magnetic bearing. These motors are suitable for use in high speed rotor or in special circumstances because they are small in size and can replace the contact components. The radial type one has the merit of being small in size and capable of controlling two degrees-of-freedom in x and y directions. The axial type motor controls only one degree-of-freedom in z direction. Theoretical background of the functions, of the motor and magnetic bearing will also be introduced. New research works are reviewed and the application in rotary blood pump is discussed.

A systematic approach to socket shape design of a concave piston assembly for a high pressure hydraulic pump of an excavator is presented in this paper. A design model is given and a methodology of socket shape design is proposed. An axisymmetric rigid-plastic finite element method is employed for predicting the approximate socket shape formed by a rotary forming process as well as for simulating the test process for separating the shoe from the piston assembly designed. It is verified that the predictions are in good agreement with the experiments. The approach is successfully applied to developing an optimal concave piston assembly.

To maintain the freshness of produce, because of stand away between produced and consumer, we need refrigeration system that can supply to consumer at cold chain as soon as gathering. General refrigeration system consist of refrigeration chamber or low temperature store. But the vacuum technology can rapidly refrigeration without refrigerator. This precool system possible to get low precooled temperature, suitable for the fishes, the meat, the vegetables, the fruit etc. Especially get advantage that quality maintain through rapid refrigeration of ferment directly generate heat. Vacuum precool system's principle is that water saturated temperature reduce according to pressure is get to vacuum area, so product temperature reduce as water evaporation at product. In vacuum suction, unit, on early experiment period run the rotary type vacuum pump at purpose pressure, then maintain pressure by water-diven ejector. As the results, cabbage took about 60 minutes to reach from $23.2^{\circ}C$ to $4.5^{\circ}C$at 5mgHg abs.

In this paper, we measure the current and vibration signals of one-dimensional time series that occur in a motor and pump, respectively. These machines are representative rotary and pumping machines. We also eliminate unnecessary components such as noise by pre-processing the current and vibration signals. Then, in order to diagnose fault signals for the pump and motor, we transform from one-dimensional time series to a two-dimensional phase portrait using Takens’ embedding method. After this transformation, we review the variation in the pattern according to the fault signals.

In this study a complex design fitness analysis of journal bearings is carried out for the LPLi rotary-vane fuel pump application, as an external and horizontal installation, in LPG vehicles. Bearings considered in the analyses are plain and 3-axial groove journal bearings. Upon reflecting the fact that the primary failure mode of bearings in the application is a premature friction and wear failure of bearing metal due to a very low viscosity of liquid fuel LPG as a bearing lubricant, the performance factors of bearings used in an evaluation process of design fitness are a load carrying capacity and vibration suppression ability relative to a rated speed. At this time the design variables of bearings are a radial clearance and length. Results show that, in terms of both of the load carrying capacity and vibration suppression ability, the plain journal bearings are superior to the 3-axial groove journal bearings and among the plain bearings the smaller the bearing clearance (5>10>$15\;{\mu}m$) is and the longer the bearing length (6<8<10<12<14 mm) is, the better the bearing performance is.

의료용 X-ray의 발전에 따라, 영상의 Digital화가 필요하게 되었다. Digital 영상 구현을 위해 다양한 형태의 영상 검출기가 개발되었다. 진단 영상의 조건으로는 구현 시간이 빠르고 해상도가 높아야 한다. 조건에 부합하는 Flat panel 형태의 직접방식과 간접방식 검출기의 개발이 주로 이루어졌으며, X-ray 검출 효율이 높고 공간 분해능이 높은 직접 방식의 검출기에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 기존 직접방식의 X-ray 검출물질로는 A-Se이 이용되었다. 하지만 A-Se의 경우 낮은 원자번호로 인해 X-ray에 대한효율이 낮으며, 제조 공정과 수율의 문제로 인해 대체 물질의 개발과 공정의 개선이 필요하다. 선행 연구를 통해 X-ray 검출물질의 전기적 특성을 파악을 통해 대체 물질로서 가능성을 알아보았다. 본 연구에서는 기존에 제작된 X-ray 검출물질의 상부전극 증착 물질과 증착법 선정에 대한 연구이다. 선행 연구를 통해 선정된 X-ray 검출물질은 HgI2이다. 상, 하부 전극 선택에 있어 HgI2의 일함수 값(4.15eV)을 고려하여 그와 비슷한 일함수 값을 가진 물질로 전기적 장벽을 제거하여야 한다. 따라서, ITO (일함수 4.45eV)와 Au (일함수 5.1eV)을 선택하였다. ITO의 증착으로 이용된 방법으로는 on-axis 형태의 magnetron plasma sputtering을 이용하였으며, Au의 증착으로 이용된 방법은 Thermal evaporation deposition을 이용하였다. plasma sputtering에 이용된 타겟은 In2O3;SnO2 (조성비:90:10wt%)를 사용하였으며, Chamber의 크기는 넓이 456 ${\phi}cm^2$ 높이 25 cm이며, 로 target과 기판과의 거리는 15cm이다. plasma발생에 필요한 가스로는 Ar과 O2를 이용하였다. 고 진공 환경 조성에 이용된 장비로는 Rotary pump와 Turbo molecular pump이다. plasma 발생 전 진공도는 $3.2{\times}10^{-5}$ Torr, 발생 후 진공도는 $5.1{\times}10^{-5}$ Torr이다. plasma 환경이 조성된 후 증착 시간은 1분 30초이다. Au는 순도 99.999%를 이용하였으며, 이용된 금은 1회 증착에 0.3 g을 이용하였다. Chamber의 넓이 1,444 ${\phi}cm^2$이며, 높이 40 cm, boat와 기판과의 거리는 25 cm이다. 고 진공 환경 조성에 이용된 장비로는 Rotary pump와 diffusion pump를 이용하였다. Au의 승화 전 진공도는 $2.4{\times}10^{-5}$ Torr 증착 시 진공도는 $4.2{\times}10^{-5}$ Torr이며, Boat에 가해준 전압, 전류는 0.97 V, 47 A이며, 증착 시간은 1분 30초이다. 광도전체 층에 각각 증착된 전극의 저항을 통해 증착상태를 판단하였다. DMM (Digital Multimeter)로 1 cm 간격으로 측정된 표면의 저항은 ITO 약 $8{\Omega}$, Au 약 $3{\Omega}$으로 전극으로서 이용이 가능한 상태이다. Au와 ITO가 증착된 HgI2 시편의 전기적 특성은 기존에 이용된 X-ray 변환물질의 성능보다 우수하였다. 하지만 Au와 ITO가 각각 증착된 시편의 전기적 특성은 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. ITO의 경우 진공 상태에서 이용되는 Gas가 이용되며, Plasma 환경 조성 유지가 어려운 점이 있다. Au전극은 증착 환경 조성이 쉽지만, 전극 물질 이용효율이 떨어지는 단점이 있다. 본 연구를 통해 X-ray 변환물질인 HgI2의 전극물질로 Au와 ITO의 이용가능성을 알아보았다. 두 전극으로 제작된 검출기의 성능은 큰 차이 없이 우수하였고, 전기적 장벽 상태가 낮아 높은 검출 효율을 보였다. 상대적으로 Au 전극의 공정이 간단하고 수율이 높다. 하지만 Au Source의 이용 효율이 떨어지는 단점이 있다. 본 연구의 결과를 통해 공정상의 유리함과 Source의 이용효율을 고려한 분석에 대한 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Outgassing from such sources as paints, coatings, adhesives and other non-metallic surfaces can contaminate satellites, especially second surface mirror and optical lens, it cause satellite to fail in own missions. The vacuum bake-out test using high temperature(more than $85 ^{\circ}C$)and high vacuum(less than $5.0{\times}1-^{-3}$ Pa) certify that the components of satellite work properly and can survive and operate in space environment like high vacuum. In the bake-out chamber installed at SITC of KARI, Rotary vacuum pump and Booster pump produce low vacuum of 5.0 Pa, and then two cryopumps produce high vacuum of below $5.0{\times}10^{-3}$ Pa. Also 48 ceramic heaters were provided to simulate high temperature. During the vacuum bake-out test, we detected contaminants using RGA(Residual Gas Analyzer) and measure the outgassing rate of the contaminant using the TQCM(Thermoelectric Quartz Crystal Microbalance). Also, IR/UV Spectrometer and witness plate be used to certify that the components were suitable for the spacecraft. This paper includes the preparation and procedures of the bake-out test for SAR(Solar Array Regulator) and MLI(Multi Layer Insulator), which were the components of the spacecraft. Especially, we discussed the methods and results of the contamination measurement. In the bake-out for SAR, the contamination was measured continuously although it was on the decrease from TQCM results. And RCA established that it is a highly polymerized compound. In the MLI bake-out using RGA and witness plate, we didn't detect any contamination materials.

Potential advantages of using vapor injection in a two stage rotary compressor for a $CO_2$ heat pump water heater system were addressed in this paper by numerical simulation. Vapor separated from a flash tank in the middle of the expansion process can be used for injection into the second stage suction plenum of the compressor to improve the system performance. Vapor injection increases the intermediate pressure between the two stages, thus increasing the first stage compressor work and reducing that of the second stage. As a whole, however, the compressor input power increases due to injected mass flow rate for the second stage. Computer simulation showed that increment of the cooling capacity by vapor injection exceeded that of the compressor work, thus improving the system performance. COP improvement by vapor injection was calculated to be about 5-14% for normal operating conditions. With vapor injection, a maximum COP was found when the displacement volume of the second stage becomes 90-95% of that of the first stage of the compressor.
