Fans are widely used in household electrical appliances due to their easy usage and high performance for cooling capacity. However, the noise generated by these fans causes one of serious problems. LG electronics makes the intranet software for design and analysis of fan. Axial, sirocco and centrifugal fan can be designed and analyzed by using the IFD(Intranet Based Fans Design) software. In order to calculate the aeroacoustic noise of a fan, the numerical method, which can calculate the acoustic pressure at the blade passing frequency and its higher harmonic frequencies, has been developed. To calculate the unsteady resultant force of the blade, vortex method is used. This paper shows the overview of the software and validates the accuracy of predicted noise of fan.

The need for an active exhaust moise controller has been growing as an reinforcement of exhaust noise regulation, high power output and improvement of average fuel economy. In this study, for development of this active exhaust noise controller, the implementation of a composition of realtime control algorithm for active exhaust noise control and the construction of simulator for realtime control algorithm for active exhaust noise control has been investigated. Also, in order to implement active exhaust noise control with this simulator, the feasibility model for control of vehicle exhaust noise control is suggested.

This paper proposes a new clock routing design for suppressing clock harmonic effects in a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) for a terrestrial Digital Multimedia Broadcasting(DMB) system. Typical crystal reference frequencies that are widely used in DMB tuners are 16.384 MHz, 19.2 MHz, 24.576 MHz. When the high-order harmonic components of these reference frequencies fall near the RF channel frequencies, receiver sensitivity of the tuners is seriously degraded. In this work, we propose a new clock routing design in order to address the clock harmonic coupling issue. The proposed design incorporates two inductors for isolating the clock ground from the main ground, and adopts a new strip line-style routing instead of the conventional microstrip line style routing to minimize the overlap area with the main ground. As a result, the RF sensitivity of the T-DMB tuner is improved by 2 dB.

Purpose : To investigate the nature of deviant voice physiology in preoperative children with congenital heart disease. Methods : Ninety-four children with congenital heart disease were enrolled. Their cries and related acoustic variables (fundamental frequency, duration, noise to harmonic ratio, jitter and shimmer) were analyzed using a multi-dimensional voice program. Results : The average fundamental frequency showed a significant decrease in patent ductus arteriosus, ventricular septal defect, and tetralogy of Fallot, except in atrial septal defect and pulmonary stenosis. The length of the analyzed sample (duration) did not show a significant difference when compared with the control group. There was a significant increase in jitter percent in ventricular septal defect, patent ductus arteriosus, and atrial septal defect. There was an increase in shimmer in ventricular septal defect, patent ductus arteriosus, and atrial septal defect. The noise-to-harmonic ratio increased in ventricular septal defect, patent ductus arteriosus, and atrial septal defect but there was no significant difference in pulmonary stenosis and tetralogy of Fallot. While analyzing acoustic variables, the voice change was significantly higher, especially in patent ductus arteriosus followed by ventricular septal defect and atrial septal defect. Most of these acoustic variables were deviant in left-to-right shunt lesions in congenital heart disease, especially in patent ductus artriosus. Conclusion : The results of the voice change analysis of preoperative children with congenital heart disease revealed that the acoustic variables differed by each congenital heart disease. Moreover, the acoustic variables were prominently deviant in congenital heart disease with left-to-right shunts.

The WCHF-FSJTC (wavelet circular harmonic function frequency selective joint transform correlator) using th wavelet transformed CHF as the reference image in FSJTC is proposed for rotation invariant pattern recognition. Since the wavelet transform has the property of feature extraction, the proposed system can have the better DC (discrimination cpability) and the higher SNR(signal to noise ratio) compared with the conventional CHF-CJTC(circular harmonic function conventional joint transform correlator). And since the structure of the proposed system is FSJTC which can eliminate auto-correlation and cross-correlation between input images, it can eliminate false alarm caused by the overlapping among correlation peaks. The used wavelet functio is the morlet function, which is proper for the reference image used in this paper. the optimal dialation parameter and oscillation frequency of the wavelet function are also achieved with varying the parameters of the wavelet function. The computer simulation shows that the proposed system has the best performance when the dilation parameter is 0.8 and the oscillation frequency is 0.48.

MM(multimode) PWM(pulse width modulation) Suitable for high performance and harmonic effects minimization of VSI (voltabge source invertetr)-IM (induction motor)drive system is proposed. The approximated optimal, suboptimal and optimal PWM are implemented in the low frequency range, while square wave operation is realized in the hibh frequency range. The pulse width Modulator is capable of generating control signals to a transistorized inverter operating at about 1KHz. All functions except digital comparison have been implemented in softyware making the scheme economical, flexible and reliable. Pulse width modulator is built and tested experimentally. In order to confirm the effectiveness and the reliability of the theoretical proposition, this scheme is applied to 1Hp, Three phase IM. As results, it is concluded that the scheme of MM PWM is superior to other conventional switching scheme through the discussions or analysis carried out on the items such as line-to-line voltage, current and spectrum of current harmonic components observed at the output terminal of inverter, noise level of motor.

The purpose of this research is to study the vibration and acoustic pressure radiation from a thin isotropic flat plate stiffened by a rectangular array of beams, and excited by a time harmonic point force. These constructions on aircraft and ship structures are often subjected to fiequency dependent pressure fluctuations and forces. Forces from the these excitations induce structural vibrations in a wide range of fiequencies, which may cause such things as acoustic fatigue and internal cabin noise in the aircraft. It is thus important that the response characteristics and vibration modes of such periodic structures be horn. From this theoretical model, the sound pressure levels(SPL) in a semi-infinite fluid(water) bounded by the plate with the variation in the locations of an external time harmonic point farce on the plate can be calculated efficiently using three numerical tools such as the Gauss-jordan method the LU decomposition method md the IMSL numerical package.

Propeller shaft is one of the main excitation source in the vehicle driveline. This paper presents the correlation of the propeller shaft and axle vibration. 10 D.O.F. lumped mass model is constructed to simulate the dirveline. Experimental apparatus is constructed to verify the simulation model and to measure the vibration signal of lthe driveline. The results of simulation and experiments show that propeller shaft excitation is 2nd harmonic of the rotational frequency. Axle housing vibration signal shows that axle resonate with 2nd harmonic of excitation frequency due to universal joint effect.

In this paper, 2.4GHz RF Module using Even Harmonic Mixer(EHM) was designed and fabricated for Direct conversion(DC) system. By minimizing performance degradation of DC system with DC offset and LO radiation, the capability of minimization and one chip solution in wireless system was proposed. The designed EHM using anti-parallel diode pair represented 9dB conversion loss and about -60dBm 2LO leakage radiation in RF port, and output reflection and reverse transmission characteristic of low noise amplifier was improved. So superior DC offset suppression characteristic is expected. RF Module which consists of EHM, LNA, RF amplifier, Frequency synthesizer and Duplexer was designed and fabricated.
