Experiments were conducted to estimate the performance of drag force type vertical axis wind turbine with an opening-shutting rotor. It was operated by the difference in drag force generated on both sides of the blades. The rotational speed was measured by a tachometer in a wind tunnel and the tunnel wind speed was measured by using a pilot-static tube and a micro manometer. The performance test for a prototype was accomplished by calculating power, power coefficient, torque coefficient from the measurement of torque and rpm by a dynamometer controller. Various design parameters, such as the number of blades(B), blade aspect ratio(W/R), angle of blades$(\alpha)$ and drag coefficient acting on a blade, were considered for optimal conditions. At the experiment of miniature model, maximum efficiency was found at N=15, $\alpha=60^{\circ}$ and W/R=0.32. The measured test variables were power, torque, rotational speed, and wind speeds. The data presented are in the form of power and torque coefficients as a function of tip-speed ratio V/U. Maximum power was found in case of $\Omega=0.33$, when the power and torque coefficient were 0.14 and 0.37 respectively. Comparing model test with prototype test, similarity law by advance ratio for vertical axis wind turbine was confirmed.

The operating torque and tribological characteristics of a cam/tappet system of an I.C. engine have an important effect on the engine efficiency. More power is lost for higher operation torque which is affected by the friction of a cam/tappet system. In this work experimental investigation of the torque behavior of a cam/tappet system was conducted to get tribological characteristics. Specifically, the torque was measured with respect to oil temperature and camshaft speed. The torque decreased with increasing camshaft speed because of decreasing friction coefficient but was hardly affected by the oil temperature. Also, the torque was the largest near the cam nose region.

This paper presents a practical method for estimation of average temperature in the permanent magnet (PM) of electric machine by using finite element analysis (FEA) and dynamo load experiment. First of all, the temperature effect of PM to the torque has been employed by FEA in order to evaluate the Temperature-Torque characteristic curve. The 1st order polynomial equation which is torque attenuation coefficient is derived by the FEA result of the Temperature-Torque curve. Next, torque saturation test with constant current condition is performed by dynamo load experiment. Then, the temperature trend can be estimated by adding the initial starting temperature using the torque attenuation coefficient and torque saturation curve. Lastly, estimated temperature is validated by infrared thermometer which measures temperature of PM surface. The comparison between the estimated result and experimental result gives a good agreement within a deviation of maximum $8^{\circ}C$.

The one-dimensional performance model of a torque converter has been widely used to analyze and predict the performance and dynamic behavior of a torque converter. But this model doesn't include the information of the operating fluid properties. Therefore, to precisely predict dynamic performance of a torque converter, the effect of operating conditions must be considered through experimental coefficients such as friction loss coefficient and shock loss coefficient. And these coefficients cannot be achieved without experiments or internal flow analysis. In this study, the effects of varying material properties of operating fluid according to various operating temperatures are clarified with flow analysis of a torque converter. And these results are verified by comparing with those of performance experiment.

마찰접합용 고장력 볼트 셋트의 관련 규격에서 허용하는 치수공차 범위 내에서 너트 구멍의 편심과 와셔 구멍 지름의 공차는 체결 시 편심에 의한 접촉면적의 결손을 초래하고 체결력의 산포를 유발하는 요인이 된다. 편평한 너트 자리면과 와셔의 접촉시 분포되는 압력의 비선형성을 고려하여 편평한 자리면 형상을 원호곡면으로 바꾸면 초기 선 접촉은 체결이 진행됨에 따라 면 접촉으로 발전한다. 원호 접촉면은 편심에 의한 접촉면적의 결손을 감소시켜 접촉상태가 양호해지므로 자리면 마찰토크(체결력) 안정화에 기여하게 된다. 유한요소법으로 너트와 와셔 접촉면의 압력을 구하고 나사면과 자리면의 마찰계수는 토크계수 A, B급이 포함되도록 조합하고 최대편심 시 토크계수를 계산하였다. 토크계수의 분포로부터 원호자리면의 적정 곡률반지름이 결정된다.

In this paper, an experimental study was performed to investigate the speed ratio-torque-thrust characteristics for metal belt CVT. It is observed from the experimental results that nondimensional secondary thrust force follows with the existing theoretical formula with ${\mu}$=0.09~0.12 depending on the torque and the speed ratio. In order to represent these characteristics, an effective friction coefficient was introduced. Also, the slip characteristics between the belt and the pulley were investigated experimentally and traction coefficients at gross slip were obtained for various speed ratios. Using the traction coefficients and the effective friction coefficients, an improved formula for the secondary thrust force was suggested assuming that thrust force is the summation of the thrust of pseudo inactive arc and the thrust of pseudo active arc. The effective friction coefficient and the improved formula for the speed ratio-torque-thrust relationship suggested in this work can be used to obtain the appropriate secondary thrust.

Butterfly valves are commonly used as control valves in applications where the pressure drops required of the valves relatively low. As the shutoff valve (on/off service) or throttling valves (for flow or pressure control), the higher order and the better precision of butterfly valves are required. The it's more and more essential to know the flow characteristic around the valve. Due to the fast progress of the flow visualization and numerical technique, it becomes possible to observe the flows around a valve and to estimate the performance of a valve. Researching these results did not gave only access to understand the process of the valve flows at different valve opening angles, but also was made to determine the accuracy of the employed method. Furthermore, the results of the three-dimensional analysis can be used in the design of butterfly valve in the industry.

In torque transmission system, we must suppressed vibration for Accuracy characteristic response of motor, Therefore, vibration suppression factor is very important motor control. To suppress vibration, a various control method has been proposed. Specially, one method of vibration suppression used disturbance observer filter. This method is torsion torque passing disturbance observer filter. By the estimated torsion torque feedback, vibration can be suppressed. The CDM(coefficient diagram method) is used to design the filter and Proportional controller. But using coefficient diagram method, not adapted controller parameter in disturbance. For this solution, we used fuzzy controller for auto tuning controller parameter. We proved this approach is confirmed by simulation.

This paper proposes a new method to reduce the torque ripple in vector controlled inverter fed synchronous motor systems. In three phase voltage source inverter systems, all the three line currents are generally not measured and the currents of two lines are measured through two sensors and two A/D converters. The measured currents may contain some error due to the non-ideality of the current sensors and A/D converters, and the error coefficient of two line currents are not same. As a result, the developed torque contains the torque ripple. The proposed method can eliminate the torque ripple by setting the error coefficient to same value. To verify the proposed method, digital simulations are carried out.

This study is to develop a system of electric power generation utilizing the wind resources available in the domestic wind environment. We tested drag-type vortical wind turbine models, which have two different types of blades: a flat plate and circular arc shape. Through a performance test, conditions of maximum rotational speed were found by measuring the rpm of wind turbine. The rotational speed was measured by a tachometer in a wind tunnel and the tunnel wind speed was by using a pilot-static tube and a micro manometer. The performance test for a prototype was accomplished by calculating power, power coefficient, torque coefficient from the measurement of torque and rpm by a dynamometer controller From the measurements for miniature turbine models with two different blades, the circular arc shape was found to Produce a maximum rotational speed for the same wind velocity condition. Based on this result, the prototype with the circular arc blade was made and tested. We found that it produces 500W at the wind velocity of 10.8 m/s and the power coefficient was 20%.
