  • In this paper, cavitation patterns of model tests were compared with those of full-scale measurement for a propeller of crude oil carrier which was suffered from erosions on suction side of blade tip region. Cavitation tests were performed at design and ballast draft using model and full scale nominal wakes. A model ship and wire mesh method was used for the simulation of wake patterns of model nominal wakes. For the prediction of full-scale wake patterns, a RANS solver(Fluent 6.3) was used and wire mesh method was used for the simulation of the full scale wakes. Comparison results show that cavitation patterns using predicted full-scale wake patterns are closer to cavitation patterns of full-scale measurement at ballast draft condition. Also, cloud cavitations were observed on the position of eroded area at both full-scale measurement and cavitation tests using simulated full-scale wake patterns.

  • Three types of 100 kW-class tidal stream turbines are proposed and their performance is studied both numerically and experimentally. Following a wind turbine design procedure, a base blade is derived and two additional blades are newly designed focusing more on efficiency and cavitation. For the three designed turbines, a CFD is performed by using FLUENT. The calculations predict that the newly designed turbines perform better than the base turbine and the tip vortex can be reduced with additional efficiency increase by adopting a tip rake. The performance of the turbines is tested in a towing tank with 700 mm models. The scale problem is carefully investigated and the measurements are compared with the CFD results. All the prediction from the CFD is supported by the model experiment with some quantitative discrepancy. The maximum efficiencies are 0.49 (CFD) and 0.45 (experiment) at TSR 5.17 for the turbine with a tip rake.

  • Recently, the cross flow turbines attract more attention for their good performance over a large operating regime at off design point. This study employs a very low head cross flow turbine, which has open inlet duct and has barely been studied before, to investigate the performance of the cross flow turbine with air suction from the rear part of the runner. Unlike conventional cross flow turbines, a draft tube is attached to the outlet of runner to improve the turbine performance. Water level and pressure in the draft tube are monitored to investigate the influence of air suction. Torque at local blade passage of three parts of runner is examined in detail under the conditions of different air suction. Consequently, it is found that with proper air suction in the runner chamber, the water level in the draft tube gradually drops to Stage 2 of the runner and the efficiency of the turbine can be raised by 10%. Overall, the effect of air-layer on the performance of the turbine is considerable.

  • Much advancement has been made in wind power due to modern technological developments. The wind energy technology is the world's fastest-growing energy option. More power can be generated from wind energy by the use of new design and techniques of wind energy machines. The geographical areas with suitable wind speed are more favorable and preferred for wind power deployment over other sources of energy generation. Today's wind turbines are mainly the horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs) and vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs). HAWTs are commercially available in various sizes starting from a few kilowatts to multi-megawatts and are suitable for almost all applications, including both onshore and offshore deployment. On the other hand, VAWTs finds their places in small and residential wind applications. The objective of the present work is to review the technological development, available sizes, efficiencies, structural types, and structural stability of VAWTs. Structural stability and efficiencies of the VAWTS are found to be dependent on the structural shape and size.

  • 2세기 후반 이후 범마한적(凡馬韓的)으로 사용되던 대형 옹형토기는 백제가 우월적 정치체로서 성장함에 따라 점차적으로 범위가 좁아지며 용도가 바뀌는데, 3세기 후반 이후 영산강유역에서 저분구묘의 중심 매장시설로 기능을 전용하면서 옹관고분이 등장하게 된다. 옹관의 형태와 양식이 통일되면서 백제와 구별되는 상징적 스타일로 강화, 사용된 것으로 추정된다. 즉 마한을 구성한 대등한 정치체들의 공통적 상징이 백제와 구별되는 영산강유역이라는 광역적인 집단의 상징으로 바뀐 것으로 추정된다. 이러한 과정은 백제와 정치적으로 구별하고 맞서야 하는 대내외적 요구를 충족시키는데 필요한 영산강유역 집단의 결집을 위한 통합 이데올로기의 반영이라고 판단된다.

  • The research topics of more than 1,900 wind energy papers registered in the Korean Journal Citation Index (KCI) were modeled into 25 topics using latent directory allocation (LDA), and their consistency was cross-validated through principal component analysis (PCA) of the document word matrix. Key research topics in the wind energy field were identified as "offshore, wind farm," "blade, design," "generator, voltage, control," 'dynamic, load, noise," and "performance test." As a new method to determine the similarity between research topics in journals, a systematic evaluation method was proposed to analyze the correlation between topics by constructing a journal-topic matrix (JTM) and clustering them based on topic similarity between journals. By evaluating 24 journals that published more than 20 wind energy papers, it was confirmed that they were classified into meaningful clusters of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, marine engineering, and renewable energy. It is expected that the proposed systematic method can be applied to the evaluation of the specificity of subsequent journals.

  • In recent years, there has been a tendency towards renewable energy sources considering the damages caused by non-renewable energy resources to nature and humans. One of the renewable energy sources is wind and energy is obtained with the help of wind turbines. To determine the behavior of wind turbines under earthquake loads, dynamic characteristics are required. In this study, the differential transformation method is proposed to determine the free vibration analysis of wind turbines with a variable cross-section. The wind turbine is modeled as an equivalent variable continuous flexural beam and blade weight is considered as a point mass at the top of the structures. The differential equation representing the free vibration of the wind turbine is transformed into an algebraic equation with the help of differential transformation method and the angular frequencies and the mode shapes of the wind turbine are obtained by the help of the differential transformation method. In the study, a sample taken from the literature was solved with the presented method and the suitability of the method was investigated. The same wind turbine example also modeled by finite element modelling software, ABAQUS. Results of the finite element model and differential transformation method are compared with each other and the results are in good agreement.

  • To improve the measurement accuracy of a solar-radiation observer instrument, aiming at the problem of multiorder-stray-light interference caused by the diffraction of the flat-field concave grating in the spectroscopic system, straylight suppression methods for different forms of optical traps are studied. According to the grating surface-scattering distribution-function model, the bidirectional scattering distribution function (BSDF) of a dust-polluted surface and the flat-field concave grating's transition area of the spectroscopic system is calculated, and a Lyot stop with blade baffle is designed to suppress this kind of stray light. For diffraction multiorder stray light, based on the theory of light-energy transmission, a design for precise positioning of the trench optical trap is proposed. The superiority of the method is verified through simulation and actual measurement. The simulation results show that in a spectroscopic system approximately 160 mm × 140 mm × 80 mm in size, the energy of the stray light is reduced by one order of magnitude by means of the trench optical trap and Lyot stop, and the number of beams is reduced from 5664 to 1040. The actual measurements show that the stray-light-suppression efficiency is about 69.4%, which is effective reduction of the amount of stray light.

  • 최근 화석연료의 사용으로 인한 연료고갈 및 환경문제가 대두되고 있으며 이를 해결하기 위한 대체에너지 개발이 시급한 실정이다. 풍력에너지는 대체에너지 중 지속적으로 무제한 사용할 수 있고 공해물질 배출이 없는 청정에너지로 각광받고 있다. 풍력발전은 바람에너지가 로터 블레이드를 통해서 운동에너지로 변환되고 다시 발전기를 통해서 전기에너지를 발생시키는 에너지 변환기술이며, 풍력발전기의 중요부품인 블레이드의 설계 및 제작은 매우 중요한 요소이지만, 우리나라는 이에 대한 기초자료 및 핵심기술 등이 부족하여 아직도 중요부품들을 외국에서 수입하여 사용하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 저 풍속에서도 발전 가능한 다층형 구조의 블레이드를 소형풍력발전기에 적용하여 풍속 및 블레이드 개수에 따른 발전기의 출력특성을 분석하였다. 연구결과, 최대풍속 8m/s일 때 블레이드 3개를 적용하면 블레이드를 1개 및 2개를 적용했을 때보다 발전기 출력전압은 33% 및 18%로 증가되었고, 발전기 출력전류는 33% 및 15%로 증가되었으며 발전기 RPM은 23% 및 13%로 증가되었다. 본 연구에서다층형 구조의 블레이드를 소형풍력발전기에 적용한 결과 발전기의 출력특성이 향상되었고 저 풍속에서도 전기에너지의 수집이 가능함을 확인하였다.
