  • Recently many studies have been carried out to predict the characteristics of vehicle noise and to reduce the noise for enhancing the ride quality. In this study, the structural-acoustic coupling theory and the acoustic finite element theory were reviewed, and the structural acoustic coupling analysis was applied to an automobile. Because of nonuniformed lateral shape of a compartment cavity, the acoustic modes were calculated with 3-D finite element modeling. The structural modes were measured with the modal testing. Using the structural-acoustic cooling analysis, the modes which strongly coupled to the interior noise were identified and the boundary regions which could reduce noise level efficiently by structural modification were predicted.

  • The recent trend of higher output engines with more auxiliary parts is resulting in greater heat generation in the engine compartment. In order to maximize the heat dissipation and eliminate the inefficient flow in the engine compartment, it is necessary to understand the flow field under the hood. In this respect, experimental study as well as numerical analysis should be conducted. The automated measuring system was constructed to obtain three dimensional mean flow data with high accuracy. The measurements have been made on a vehicle with a steady incoming air flow. The result shows that there exists a high degree of non-uniformity in the mean flow velocity at the front of radiator.

  • Reliability of automotive parts has been one of the most interesting fields in the automotive industry. Especially, a small DC motor was issued because of the increasing adoption for passengers' safety and convenience. For several years, small DC motors have been studied and some problems of a life test method were found out. The field condition was not considered enough in the old life test method. It also needed a lot of test time. For precise life estimation and accelerated life test, new life test procedure was developed based on measured field condition. The vibration condition on vehicle and latent force on fan motor shaft were measured and correlated with each other. We converted the acceleration data into the load data and calculated the equivalent load from integrated value. We found the relationship which can be used for accelerated life test without changing the severity by using different loading factors.

  • Prelaunch thermal analysis of the KSLV (Korea Space Launch Vehicle)-I PLF (Payload Fairing) was performed to predict maximum/minimum liftoff temperatures and to evaluate of air conditioning performance. Prelaunch thermal analysis includes internal air conditioning effect, external convective heating/cooling, radiation exchange with the ground and sky, radiation between spacecraft and PLF, and solar radiation incident on PLF. Analysis was performed at two extreme conditions, hot day condition and cold day condition. The results showed that the maximum liftoff temperature was $53^{\circ}C$ and the minimum liftoff temperature was $-3.8^{\circ}C$. It was also found that conditioned air supplying, in $20{\pm}2^{\circ}C\;and\;1200\;m^3/hr$, is sufficient to keep the internal air in required temperature range.

  • It was used as measuring system to diagnose insulating condition, by which was kept a insulating resistance of inner stack and at the same time was cooled electrochemical heat of reaction of FCEV(fuel cell electric vehicle) stack that used a compressed hydrogen gas reacting with oxygen in accordance with variation on thermal degradation of nonconductive heat transfer fluid. Consequently it was developed a cylindrical multi-terminal capacitive-conductive sensor that could be attached to the internal surface of cooling system pipe to evaluate capacitance and conductivity of heat transfer fluid.

  • In this paper, two types of switched reluctance motors (SRMs) with segmental rotors are presented in detail. One is 6/5 segmental rotor type; the other is 12/8 segmental rotor type. Both motors have the same stator, rotor and winding configurations. The stator is constructed with special stator poles in which the exciting and auxiliary poles are designed exclusively. The rotor is constructed from a series of discrete segments, each of which is embedded in the magnetic isolator. The windings are only wound on the exciting poles, and no windings are wound on the auxiliary poles. These structures result in short flux path and high flux-linkage utilization in the proposed motors, which may reduce the magneto motive force (MMF) requirement and increase the electrical utilization of the machine. To verify the proposed two structures, the characteristics of the proposed two types are analyzed and compared with that of conventional 12/8 SRM.

  • This study evaluated the improvements for circuits of a combat vehicle distribution box to reduce the noise generated in electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing. An analysis of the distribution boxes that failed the standard revealed the conducted noise generated from the converter and semiconductor switching elements on the circuit board. The distribution box transfers power from the generator and battery to the cooling system of a combat vehicle to keep turning the air conditioner on and off. Two methods were proposed to overcome this problem: a passive filter was added to the circuit board for the first method, and the converter and switching elements were replaced with the relays for the second method. Both methods were effective in reducing noise, but a greater improvement was obtained from the second method. The second method was applied to a combat vehicle system and was found to be suitable according to the EMC standards.

  • In this study, the model A with the existing shape used at racing car and the model B with light weight were designed. The structural analysis with thermal deformation and stress were carried out. Model A shows that the maximum temperature is lower than model B. The cooling performance due to the shape of the disk without any other cooling conditions can be shown to be better for model A. Model A was seen to be superior in durability as the thermal stress reduced by almost twice as much as model B. The part where the greatest stress occurred appeared to be the hole jointed with the hub regardless of its shape. The analysis results at this study are seen to be useful at designing the shape of the actual vehicle brake disc. The analysis results obtained in this study can be applied at grasping the strength of the brake disk for racing car practically. By utilizing the analysis result of the brake disk for racing car, this study is seen as the convergence study that the aesthetic design and analysis are applied.
