본 연구에서는 액체로켓 연소기의 연소 불안정 모사를 위해 극저온 유체인 액체질소를 공급하는 설비를 구축하였다. 가압 및 공급 성능을 예측하였으며 실험을 통하여 검증하였다. 액체질소 공급 시스템은 가압식 공급 시스템으로 구성하였으며, 가압제 압력 조정은 돔 레귤레이터를 사용하였다. 액체질소 공급 유량 제어는 캐비테이션 벤추리를 사용하였으며, 액체 질소 공급 조건은 초당 유량 2.55 kg/s, 벤추리 입구 압력은 100 bar 이상이다. 초기 실험 결과 예측된 가압제의 양이 충분히 공급되지 못하여, 탱크압력 강하가 발생해 목표 유량을 공급하지 못하였다. 구축된 설비의 변경 및 보완을 통하여, 최종적으로 목표 유량 공급에 성공하여 극저온 액체질소 공급 설비를 검증하였다.

Natural gas liquefaction plant and LNG carrier needs large capital investment. Therefore a lot of small or middle scale natural gas fields aren't developed due to poor profitability. If natural gas is made to gas hydrate instead of liquefaction, developing small-scale natural gas field can be profitable because building cost of gas hydrate plant and carrier are economical. Because the process of making gas hydrate consumes much energy, the gas hydrate formation process has to be optimized for energy consumption. In this study, gas hydrate formation process was investigated experimentally. Experimental apparatus consists of reactor, pressure regulator, chiller, and magnetic stirrer. 99.95% methane was used to make gas hydrate. Tests were conducted at variable pressure and temperature condition.

Depending on the living styles, the types of energy consumed by households have changed, and the consumption has increased rapidly. Consequently, those have led to environmental issues, such as exhaustion of energy and the climate changes. As one of solutions to such issues, energy efficiency can be approached. Therefore, in this study, the gas water heater(115S type Rheem products) that made in Germany and obtain hot water using gas as a heat source is selected. a $1.0m^3$ water tank with a 6kW electronic heater is installed and a water temperature and pressure is maintain constantly also thermometer is injected. Two of gas meter, one of pressure regulator and three of time measurement devices are installed in a combustion facility and fuelling facility with a magnet valve so it can observe and record combustion reactions. Quantity of hot water that heated by boiler is recorded using a quantity measurement tank, and have been heated by the boiler have been to record and measure the amount and utilized the data acquired through measurement of all factors that are applied to acquire hot water in order to calculate the use rate of final energy. In conclusion, this researcher drew the economic strong points of the hot water generated by gas.

KHNP recently has obtained the approval for the commercialization of the modified 37-element (or 37 M) fuel bundle and now is loading the 37 M fuel bundles in CANDU-6 reactors in KOREA. One of the main issues for approval was the burnup limit. Due to CANDU design and neutronic characteristics, there was no specific burnup restriction of a fuel bundle. The absence of a burnup limit does not mean that a fuel bundle can stay in the CANDU reactor without a time limit. However, the regulator requested traditional design values as well as the burnup limit reflecting the computer code uncertainty. The method for the PWR burnup limit was not applied to the CANDU fuel bundle. Since there was no approved methodology to build the burnup limit with uncertainties, KHNP introduced a Monte-Carlo method coupled with a 95/95 approach to determine the conservative burnup limit from the viewpoint of the centerline temperature, internal pressure, strain measurement deviation. Moreover, to consider the uncertainties of various computing models, a converted power uncertainty was introduced. This paper presents the methodology and puts forward the limits on burnup, evaluated for each of the existing and modified fuel bundles, in consideration of the pressure tube aging condition.

The continuously variable transmission (CVT) of which speed ratio can change continuously in a fixed range has the benefits of low fuel consumption and exhaust gas because it enables the engine of a vehicle to operate in a high efficiency range regardless of vehicle speed. The speed ratio of belt type CVT is controlled by adjusting line pressure. The one of the line pressure control methods, mechanical-hydraulic control is usually adopting VDT's control method, in which the secondary solenoid valve has two functions both a regulator and a line pressure controller. However, this control method could not show the high performance of CVT with optimal driving capability because of the limitation of simple control algorithm, and it could not gain market share sufficiently in spite of the advantage of CVT with low fuel consumption. On the other hand, the electro-hydraulic control method gives the enhancement of power performance and low fuel consumption by implementing various driving mode using the proportional control or PWM control. The key of CVT technique is to develop a control algorithm of the electro-hydraulic solenoid valve in order to implement the speed ratio efficiently. In this paper, the line pressure control algorithm is proposed and the hydraulic system is controlled using metal belt type CVT test rig and the embedded ECU platform.

본 논문에서는 압력보상형 사판식 유압 피스톤 펌프와 밸브 제어형 실린더를 결합한 EHA에 대하여 유압 실린더의 소비 유량이 작으면 펌프 회전 속도를 낮추는 새로운 개념의 하이브리드형 제어 시스템을 제안하였다. 펌프 내 압력조절기의 사판각 제어와 간섭을 피하기 위해 위치 명령 신호의 속도 성분 평균치를 이용하여 펌프의 회전속도를 조절하였고, 시스템 압력이 기준치 이하로 낮아지는 것을 방지하기 위해 압력 스위치 기능을 추가하였다. 시뮬레이션과 실험 결과에 의하면, EHA의 동적인 응답 특성에 영향을 주지 않는 조건에서 하이브리드 제어를 통해 공전 모드에서의 펌프 회전속도를 1,800rpm에서 600rpm로 낮춤으로써 하이브리드 제어를 안 할 경우에 비해 펌프 구동 동력을 약 44%까지 절감시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The HPM (High-speed Power Matching) system is an electro-hydraulic control system. It directly controls the swash plate of the pump by selecting four-loop logic based on joystick signals, pump flow, and pressure signal to improve the efficiency and controllability of construction machines. In the NFC (Negative Flow Control) system, a typical pump control system using conventional open center type MCV, the loss is continuously generated by flow through the center bypass line even when the excavator is not in operation. Also, due to the slow response of the pump that indirectly controls the flow rate using the pressure regulator, peak pressure occurs at the start or stop of the operation. Conversely, the HPM system uses an MCV without center-by-pass flow path and the swash plate of a pump for the HPM is controlled by a high-speed proportional flow control valve. As a result, the HPM system minimizes energy loss in standby state of the excavator and enables peak pressure control through rapid electro-hydraulic control of a pump. In this paper, the concept of the HPM system algorithm is introduced and the hydraulic system efficiency is compared with the NFC system using the excavator SAT (System Analysis Tool).

This paper presents and compares three feedback control strategies for active control of noise inside a 3-D vibro-acoustic cavity. These are a) control strategy based on direct output feedback (DOFB) b) control strategy based on linear quadratic regulator (LQR) to reduce structural vibrations and c) LQR control strategy with a weighting scheme based on structural-acoustic coupling coefficients. The first two strategies are indirect control strategies in which noise reduction is achieved through active vibration control (AVC), termed as AVC-DOFB and AVC-LQR respectively. The third direct strategy is based on active structural-acoustic control (ASAC). This strategy is an LQR based optimal control strategy in which the coupling between the various structural and the acoustic modes is used to design the controller. The strategy is termed as ASAC-LQR. A numerical model of a 3-D rectangular box cavity with a flexible plate (glued with piezoelectric patches) and with other five surfaces treated rigid is developed using finite element (FE) method. A single pair of collocated piezoelectric patches is used for sensing the vibrations and applying control forces on the structure. A comparison of frequency response function (FRF) of structural nodal acceleration, acoustic nodal pressure, and piezoelectric actuation voltage is carried out. It is found that the AVC-DOFB control strategy gives equal importance to all the modes. The AVC-LQR control strategy tries to consume the control effort to damp all the structural modes. It is seen that the ASAC-LQR control strategy utilizes the control effort more intelligently by adding higher damping to those structural modes that matter more for reducing the interior noise.
