This paper presents a miniaturized turn-counting sensor (TCS) where the geomagnetism and high-rpm rotation of ammunition are used to detect the turn number of ammunition for applications to small-caliber turn-counting fuzes. The TCS, composed of cores and a coil, has a robust structure with no moving part for increasing the shock survivability in the gunfire environments of ${\sim}30,000$ g's. The TCS is designed on the basis of the simulation results of an electromagnetic analysis tool, $Maxwell^{(R)}$3D. In experimental study, the static TCS test using a solenoid-coil apparatus and the dynamic TCS test (firing test) have been made. The presented TCS has shown that the induction voltage of $6.5{\;}mV_{P-P}$ is generated at the magnetic flux density of 0.05 mT and the rotational velocity of 30,000 rpm. From the measured signal, the TCS has shown the SNR of 44.0 dB, the nonlinearity of 0.59 % and the frequency-normalized sensitivity of $0.26{\pm}0.01{\;}V/T{\cdot}Hz$ in the temperature range of $-30{\sim}+43^{\circ}C$. Firing test has shown that the TCS can be used as a turn-counting sensor for small-caliber ammunition, verifying the shock survivability of TCS in high-g environments.

Semi-active suspension systems are greatly expected to be in the mainstream of future controlled suspensions fur passenger cars. In this study, a continuous variable damper for a passenger car suspension is developed. It is controlled actively and exhibits high performance with light weight, low cost, and low energy consumption. To get fast response of the damper, reverse damping mechanism is adapted, and to get small pressure change rate after blow-off, a pilot controlled proportional valve is designed and analyzed. The reverse continuous variable damper is designed as a HS-SH damper which offers good body control with reduced transferred input force from tire, compared with any other type of suspension system. The damper structure is designed, so that rebound and compression damping force can be tuned independently, of which variable valve is placed externally. The rate of pressure change with respect to the flow rate after blow-offbecomes smooth when the fixed orifice size increases. Damping forces are measured with the change of the solenoid current at the different piston velocities to confirm the maximum hysteresis of 20N, linearity, and variance of damping farce. The damping farce variance is wide and continuous, and is controlled by the spoof opening, of which scheme is usually adapted in proportional valves. The reverse continuous variable damper developed in this study is expected to be utilized in the semi-active suspension systems in passenger cars after its performance and simplicity of the design is confirmed through real car test.

In order to investigate the exhaust structure and secondary oxidation of unburned hydrocarbon (HC) in the exhaust port, concentrations of individual HC species were measured in exhaust process, the degree of oxidation were obtained. Using a solenoid-driven fast sampling system on single-cylinder research engine fueled with 94% propane, the profiles of unburned hydrocarbons (HCs) and non-fuel HCs with a propane fueled engine were obtained from several locations in the exhaust port during the exhaust process. The sampled gases were analyzed using a gas chromatography of HC species with 4 or lesser carbon atoms. The change of total HC concentration and HC fractions of major components through the exhaust port were discussed. The results showed that non-uniform distribution of HC concentration existed around the exhaust valve and changed with time, and that the exhaust gas exhibited nearly uniform concentration profile at port exit, which was due to mixing and oxidation. Also it could be known that bulk gas with relatively high HC concentration came out through the bottom of the exhaust valve. To estimate the mass-based degree of HC oxidation in the exhaust port from measured HC concentrations, a 3-zone diagnostic cycle simulation and plug flow modeling were used. The degree of oxidation ranged between 26 % and 36 % corresponding to the engine operation conditions.

본 연구에서는 MR 유체를 특징으로 하는 대시포트형 마운트를 제안하고, 제안된 MR유체 마운트의 동적지 배방정식을 구하였다. 또한, 자극의 구조 및 형상과 관련된 설계인자의 변화가 솔레노이드에서의 자계 발생에 미치는 영향에 대하여 관찰하였다 솔레노이드에서 발생하는 자기 특성에 대하여 살펴보기 위하여 자극의 유효길이와 코어 중심부의 구조를 달리하여 설계인자로 선정하였다. 등가자기회로법를 이용하여 솔레노이드에서의 자기 특성의 변화를 살펴보고, 이를 상용소프웨어에 의한 계산 결과와 비교하였다. 등가자기회로법에 의한 계산 결과, 자극의 유효길이가 증가할수록 자기저항은 감소하여 자속밀도가 증가하는 경향을 나타내지만, 그 밖의 자기 특성의 변화는 작게 나타났다. 상용 소프트웨어를 이용한 결과와 등가자기회로에 의한 결과는 유사한 경향을 나타내는 것을 확인하였다.

An electro hydraulic poppet valve (EHPV) and a variable orifice poppet are assembled in a single block, which is referred to as a RHINO but is also generally called a pilot-operated flow control valve. In this study, we analyzed the structure and the operating principle for a RHINO applied in a 21-ton electric excavator system. The RHINO was experimentally tested to measure the dynamic responses and the pressure energy loss. In this test, we investigated the variation in the conductance coefficient according to the increase in the supply pressure under a constant current and a variation in the flow rate according to the increase in the current. Then, the geometrical shapes and the spring stiffness of the RHINO were considered to develop an analysis model. The characteristics (current-force and hysteresis) for the solenoid based on the experimental data were reflected in the analysis model that was developed, and the reliability of the analysis model was also verified by comparing the experimental and analytical results. The developed model is thus considered to be reliable for use in a wide range of applications, including optimum design, sensitivity analysis, parameter tuning, etc.

본 논문은 마이크로 플럭스게이트 자기 센서 (micro fluxgate magnetic sensor)의 여자코일 선폭에 따른 자계 검출 특성 변화에 관한 것이다. 센서 제작을 위해 PCB 다층 적층기술을 사용하였으며, 연자성 코어를 둘러싼 여자코일 선폭을 각각 $260\;{\mu}m$와 $520\;{\mu}m$로 센서를 구현하였다. 센서는 모두 5층의 기판을 적층 하였으며, 가운데 (3번째)기판을 자성체 코어로, 자성체 코어 외부 (2번째와 4번째)기판을 여자코일로, 최외부 (1번째와 5번째)기판을 검출코일로 제작하였다. 연자성 코어로는 약 100,000의 큰 DC 투자율 (permeability)을 갖는 코발트 (Co)가 주성분인 아몰퍼스 재료를 사용하였으며, 자속 누설을 최소화하기 위해 사각 링 형태를 유지하였다. 솔레노이드 형태의 여자코일과 검출코일은 구리 재질로 제작되었다. $260\;{\mu}m$ 여자코일 선폭을 갖는 자기센서는 여자조건이 360 kHz, $3\;V_{p_p}$의 정현파일 경우에 780 V/T로 매우 우수한 감도를 보이고 있으며, $-100\;{\mu}T\;{\sim}\;+100\;{\mu}T$ 영역에서 매우 우수한 선형특성을 보이고 있다. 자기 센서의 크기는 $7.3\;{\times}\;5.7\;mm^2$이며, 소비전력은 약 8 mW이다. 이런 초소형 자기센서는 휴대용 네비게이션 시스템, telematics, VR 게임기 등 다양한 응용분야에 적용할 수 있다.
