The rare earth output is concentrated in limited number of countries including China. Also the necessity for development of non-rare earth motor is getting signified due to the rapid increase of rare earth price and resource weaponizing policies. Non-rare earth motor is generally designed as spoke type PMSM (Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor) in order to maximize the power density. Such spoke type PMSM has advantage in concentrating the flux but demonstrates lower efficiency compared to permanent magnet using Nd (Neodymium) permanent magnet. Therefore, applications with strong necessity for efficiency need rotor structure having improved efficiency compared to spoke type PMSM. Hence, this study suggested fan-shape type PMSM with somewhat lower power density but maximized efficiency. Fan-shape type PMSM is a rotor shape demonstrating outstanding reduction of iron loss compared to existing spoke type. Thus, this study analyzed the improvement of efficiency and reduction of loss arising from the suggested shape through parameter calculation.

The low speed aerodynamic characteristics for a modified sonic arc airfoil which is designed by using the nose shape function of sonic arc, the shape function of NACA four-digit wing sections, and Maple are experimentally investigated. The small rotor blades of a modified sonic arc and NACA0012 airfoil are precisely fabricated with a commercially available light aluminum(Al 6061-T6) and are spin tested over a low speed range (3000rpm-5000rpm). In a consuming power comparison, the consuming powers of NACA0012 are higher than that of modified sonic arcs at each pitch angle. The measured rotor thrust for each pitch angle is used to estimate the rotor thrust coefficient according to momentum theory in the hover state. The value of thrust coefficients for both two airfoils at each pitch angle show almost constant values over the low Mach number range. However, the rotor thrust coefficient of NACA0012 is higher than that of the modified sonic arc at each pitch angle. In conclusion, the aerodynamic performance of NACA0012 is better than that of modified sonic arcs in the low speed regime. This test model will provide a convenient platform for improving the aerodynamic performance of small scale airfoils and for performing design optimization studies.

In this paper, we presented a study on the design of permanent magnet rotor for exterior rotor type brushless direct current(BLDC) motor. To reduce the cogging torque and torque ripple, the specific shape and magnetization pattern of permanent magnets in BLDC motors are suggested. Firstly, four permanent magnet models with different shapes and magnetization arrays are presented. The results from the finite element method(FEM), the most effective model for reducing cogging torque and torque ripple was presented. In addition, to confirm the steady state performance, the torque-speed characteristic analysis has been performed with variable speed and load. Finally, the best permanent magnet model for reducing cogging torque and torque ripple with appropriate torque-speed performance was selected through the comparison according to the device volume.

This study was carried out to improve the performance of a vertical-axis micro wind turbine. It is unique in that it has two identical generators on both sides of the main shaft. Also it has a C shape frame to fix the generators and the main shaft firmly and to provide a connection to a tower. Performance analysis of the wind turbine rotor was performed using Qblade, which is an analysis program for vertical axis wind turbines and freeware. Based on the analysis results, the blade airfoil, the chord length, and the rotor size were modified to improve the performance of the rotor. The modification was found to increase the performance of the wind turbine and to reach the targeted rated power.

소형 가스터빈 엔진에 장착 가능한 저압단 축류 압축기의 공력성능 및 구조적 안정성을 동시에 고려한 최적화 설계를 수행하였다. 근사모델을 구축하여 유전알고리즘을 이용하여 전역 최적화 해를 도출하였다. 최적 설계된 압축기의 동익단은 Hub쪽에서 날개의 부하가 커지되, Tip쪽에서 입사각이 0에 가깝게 설계되었다. 한편 동익의 형상은 허브쪽에서 사다리꼴 모양으로 수렴이 되어 구조적 안정성을 확보하도록 설계가 되었다. 최종적인 수치해석 결과 작동점에서 동익단의 효율은 87.6%이며 구조적 안정성을 나타내는 안전계수는 3이상을 확보하였다.

In this study, we devised methods to enhance the efficiency of rotor sails which have been applied as one of the energy saving devices of ships. The idea of the study originated from the notion that installing protrusions or increasing the surface roughness on the smooth surface of the rotor sail could delay the separation of the incoming wind flow and consequently increase the lift force. Five cylinder models were considered and tested in an open-type wind tunnel at Chungnam National University. A smooth surface cylinder exhibits the highest lift-to-drag ratio at a specific Reynolds number, and as the Reynolds number increases this value decreases sharply. The variation in this typical Magnus force can be significantly improved by altering the surface shape and roughness of the rotor sail. It has been observed that increasing the surface roughness improves the lift characteristics, resulting in increased efficiency. Furthermore, it revealed that the reverse Magnus effect which may occur during actual operation in the low spin ratio region can be significantly enhanced.

자기 기어는 기계식 기어와 동일하게 기어의 특성을 나타내면서 각 회전자가 접촉하지 않아 마찰에 의한 소음 및 발열, 유지보수문제에서 기계식 기어보다 유리하다. 또한 권선계자를 사용하는 회전자를 적용할 경우 기어의 출력조절은 물론, 기어비 및 위급상황에서 자체적인 구동차단까지 가능하여 자기 기어의 활용가능성은 무한하다. 하지만 권선계자를 사용할 경우 영구자석과 철심간의 흡인력에 의한 코깅토크가 나타나게 되고 이는 회전자의 진동을 유발하는 토크 리플성분의 증가로 이어진다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 권선계자를 사용하는 회전자의 토크 리플을 저감하기 위해 회전자의 다양한 형상을 분석하였으며, 자기 기어의 토크 리플을 저감하기 위한 최적의 형상을 제시하였다.

The desiccant rotor is the most essential component of desiccant cooling system, but one of its drawbacks to spread out is rotor size. To reduce the size of rotor the analysis of rotor performance is crucial. Systematic examination on the effect of desiccant and channel geometries has been conducted based on the numerical program previously developed. Considered parameters related to channel geometries are channel shape and cross section area of channel, and parameters related to desiccant are mass fraction, heat capacity, density, maximum water uptake and separation factor of isotherm. Considerable reduction of rotor size is expected by adjusting the parameters.
