A contact strip shape of a high speed train pantograph system was optimized with CFD to increase the aerodynamic performance and stability of contact force, and the results were validated by a wind tunnel test. For design of the optimal contact strip shape, a Kriging model and genetic algorithm were used to ensure the global search of the optimal point and reduce the computational cost. To enhance the performance and robustness of the contact strip for high speed pantograph, the drag coefficient and the fluctuation of the lift coefficient along the angle of attack were selected as design objectives. Aerodynamic forces were measured by a load cell and HWA (Hot Wire Anemometer) was used to measure the Strouhal number of wake flow. PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) was adopted to visualize the flow fields. The optimized contact strip shape was shown a lower drag with smaller fluctuation of vertical lift force than the general shaped contact strip. And the acoustic noise source strength of the optimized contact strip was also reduced. Finally, the reduction amount of drag and noise was assessed when the optimized contact strip was applied to three dimensional pantograph system.

This paper introduces a bidirectional full-bridge converter with new active damp structure. The proposed active damp circuit can damp the oscillating voltage across the rectifier diodes with a smaller voltage stress of the damping capacitor and eliminate the circulating current. In addition, the proposed converter can achieve additional advantages such as nearly ZCS switching for leading-leg switches and no recovery current for rectifier-bridge by the suitable design of the damp capacitor to resonate with leakage inductor. Since the ZVS is achieved for both leading-leg and lagging-leg switches by the magnetizing current of the transformer, it can be achieved regardless of the load variation. A 3.3 kW prototype converter is implemented for vehicle-to-grid (V2G) application and the advantages of the proposed converter are verified by the experiments. The maximum efficiencies of 98.2% and 97.6% have been achieved for the buck mode and boost mode operation, respectively.

모바일 매핑시스템은 차량에 GPS(Global Positioning System), IMU(Inertial Measurement Unit), CCD 카메라 등을 탑재하고 위치 및 영상 정보를 취득하는 효율적인 방법이다. 모바일 매핑시스템은 도로 시설물 관리, 지도 갱신 등 다양한 분야에 이용되고 있다. 국외에서 개발된 모바일 매핑시스템은 각 센서의 통합 및 동기화 방안을 알 수 없으므로 업그레이드하거나 새로운 센서를 추가하기 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 모바일 매핑시스템의 개선 및 센서추가를 위해서 모바일 매핑시스템에 기본석으로 필요한 GPS, IMU, 그리고 CCD 카메라와 향후 추가될 센서인 레이저, 오도미터(Odometer) 등의 센서가 추가될 경우를 고려하여 멀티 센서 통합 및 동기화 구현 방안을 제시하였다. 또한 동기화에 필요한 각 센1서의 요구사항을 파악한 후 동기화 장비를 설계 및 제작하고 실험하였다.

In this paper, we investigated the improvement of characteristics of knock, emission and fuel consumption rate by optimizing the location and size of water transfer holes in cylinder head gasket without change of engine water jacket design itself. The cooling system was modified in the direction of reducing the metal temperature in the head and increasing the metal temperature in the block. The optimization of water transfer holes in cylinder head gasket was obtained by "flow visualization test". The water transfer holes were concentrated in front side of the engine in order to reduce thermal boundary layer in the water jacket of No. 2 and No. 3 combustion changer in the cylinder head, which would have a large knock intensity, and increase thermal boundary layer in the water jacket of the cylinder block. When the modified coolant flow pattern was applied as proposed in this paper, the knock characteristic was improved. The spark timing was advanced up to 2$^{\circ}$ in low and middle speed range at a full load. In addition, HC emission at MBT was reduced by 5.2%, and the fuel consumption rate was decreased up to 1% in the driving condition of 2400 rpm and 250 KPa. However, since this coolant flow pattern mentioned in this paper might deteriorate the performance of vehicle cooling system due to the coolant flow rate reduction, a properly optimized point should be obtained. obtained.

Interior permanent magnet synchronous motor(IPMSM) has become a popular choice in electric vehicle applications. This paper proposes efficiency optimization control of IPMSM drive using AFLC-FNN(Adaptive Fuzzy Learning Control Fuzzy Neural Network)controller. In order to maximize the efficiency in such applications, this paper proposes the optimal control method of the armature current. The optimal current can be decided according to the operating speed and the load conditions. This paper proposes speed control of IPMSM using AFLC-FNN and estimation of speed using ANN controller. The back propagation neural network technique is used to provide a real time adaptive estimation of the motor speed. The proposed control algorithm is applied to IPMSM drive system controlled AFLC-FNN controller, the operating characteristics controlled by efficiency optimization control are examined in detail.

위성은 지상에서의 발사부터 우주에서의 운용까지 다양한 진동환경에 놓인다. 따라서 위성 설계시, 진동은 중요한 고려 대상중 하나이다. 경제적인 발사 비용을 위해 구조체 경량화는 필수적이며, 이는 진동측면에서 위성체내의 장비들에는 불리한 여건이 되고 있다. 또한 영상에 대한 해상도가 높아짐에 따라 탑재체의 지향 안정성의 보장을 위해 탑재체로 전달되는 하중에 대한 요구조건도 엄격해지고 있다. 이러한 상황을 해결하고자 진동절연 시스템이 도입되었으며, 발사체로 부터 전달되는 진동을 감소시키거나, 궤도상 운용중 위성내 장비들이 발생시키거나 이들로 전달되는 진동을 차단하는 방법이 적용된다. 본 논문에서는 진동저감과 관련된 최근의 위성체/발사체 적용 사례들을 살펴보고, 이를 통해 향후 진동절연 시스템 적용에 필요한 고려 사항들을 확인하고자 한다.

Fuel cell systems are consisted of various parts, for example fuel cell stack, fuel supplier, electrical converters, controllers and so on. Each components of system should have appropriate specification for their applications as well as simplicity. Because thermal load can be managed simply by using fans without any water cooling system, the air-cooled PEMFC is widely used in sub kW and around 1kW systems. The performance of an air-cooled system is highly dependent on ambient temperature and humidity. In this paper, the air-cooled PEMFC systems are developed and investigated to study the operating characteristics in the aspect of the thermal and water coupled management by the control of the axial fans and compressors. Various experiments were also conducted to get the cell voltage distribution, the relative humidity of the reactant gas and the thermal management by axial cooling fans, which cannot be observed in single cell experiment. After then, as practical applications, portable fuel cell system and a hybrid electric cart were successfully integrated and operated by using this air-cooled stack.

This paper presents the development of the transfer case for a 3.5-ton commercial vehicle. A transfer case is composed of many parts, including helical gear, shaft, bearing, planetary gear, and others. Helical gears are currently used as power transmitting gears due to their relatively smooth and silent operation, large load carrying capacity, and operation at higher speeds. The key parameter in transfer case development is the bending stress at the root of a tooth in the helical gear. The bending stress of the helical gear has been studied through theoretical calculation and finite element method (FEM) analysis. Major factors of the bending stress calculation are determined according to American Gear Manufacturers Association (AGMA) standards, and FEM model analysis of the helical gear is conducted. FEM results are compared with theoretical calculations and the difference of the bending stress is described.
