The pulsation of a reciprocating type hydrogen compressor is occurred from the mechanism and this pulsation makes much noise and vibration. To reduce this pulsation, snubber is usually installed on that. To maintain the efficiency in the reciprocating type hydrogen compressor, the pulsation and vibration should be reduced. so it is necessary to research about the characteristic of pulsation and vibration. Therefore in this paper, the vibration characteristic of the snubber is analyzed in the base of optimized modeling condition through the flowing analysis of existing snubber. The prototype of reciprocating type hydrogen compressor is analyzed with numerical analysis. And making sure the present condition of hydrogen compressor through measurement of vibration and noise, and then it is established that the vibration characteristic data base on numerical analysis which will be develope.

In automobile exhaust system. Internal pressure pulsation and shell vibration greatly affect the surface sound radiation. This noise is emitted from the muffler outer shell due to the pulsation of the exhaust gas pressure. This paper describes an analytical study of these characteristics as influenced by exhaust system structure. An exhaust simulator was used for generating the pressure pulsation. The relationship between shell vibration and radiated noise was used for generating the pressure pulsation. The relationship between shell vibration and radiated noise was identified by finding FRF.

A BLDC motor has a serious drawback that torque pulsation is generated in every commutation period though it has many advatages compared to the conventional DC Motor. In this paper, the influence of commutation time on torque pulsation is studied. Generally in calculating the torque of BLDC motor, it is assumed that the decaying phase back EMF is constant, but the torque model considering decaying phase back EMF is introduced here. Through it, the torque in commutation period has torque pulsation component caused by commutation itself and it cannot be removed perfectly even if there is no current pulsation. To reduce the torque pulsation, a new method is proposed, which controls a point of commutation and the optimal point of commutation is found. Simulation shows that proposed method reduces the torque pulsation considerately.

For a discharge system of rotary compressor, analytical investigation on the discharge gas pulsation has been carried out. With the aid of four pole theory, acoustic impedance of the discharge system composed of muffler and cavities on both sides of motor with gas passages between them can be calculated using discrete acoustic elements described by transfer matrices, yielding the relationship between discharge mass flow rate and gas pulsation at the discharge port. This method of predicting the gas pulsation was validated by measurement data. Effects of change in discharge muffler geometries on the gas pulsation also were investigated, demonstrating that this method can be used for muffler design.

A numerical study has been conducted to investigate the effect of an inlet flow pulsation on mixing of two solutions with different concentrations in a micro conduit. We treat an unsteady, incompressible and two-dimensional flow through a micro conduit by adopting the momentum equations with the electrostatic force due to streaming current and the concentration equation. The feasibility of the inlet flow pulsation to enhance the mixing process inside the micro conduit is carefully examined by varying the inlet pulsation frequency. When a low-frequency pulsation is induced at the inlet, the interface between two solutions with different concentrations becomes wavy, which results in mixing enhancement. As the pulsation frequency increases, the waviness of the interface becomes meager, and the concentration gradients at the interface approach the value for the non-pulsating steady flow.

The pressure pulsation due to the gear geometry of the gerotor (generalized rotor) pump mainly occurs in an instant that the chamber of the gerotor enters the delivery port and leaves the suction one. Such a pressure pulsation may result in undesirable vibration and noise of pump components as well as cavitation in hydraulic system. Therefore, it is very important to examine the pressure characteristic of the gerotor pump at its design and analysis stages. In this paper, in order to reduce the pressure pulsation in the gerotor pump, the port plate with the relief grooves is designed by referring to as notch of vane pump and relief groove of piston pump. A series of the theoretical analyses on the pressure pulsation is performed in consideration of various design parameters of the port plate, including the installation positions of the port inlet/outlet and the groove width, and the operating conditions such as rotational velocity and delivery pressure.

During the operation, fatigue failures and cracks of duct plate due to excessive duct vibration occurred in the fan-duct systems of fossil fueled boilers. We measured static pressure variation(pressure pulsation) in the outlet, and also measured vibration at the outlet duct of a centrifugal fan. It was found that strong pressure pulsation caused by the inlet vortex occurred in inlet vane of centrifugal fan in the middle range of vane opening. Thus, excessive duct vibration is caused by strong pressure pulsation. In this paper, it is shown that the frequency and amplitude of pressure pulsation depend mainly on vane opening and are compared with duct vibration. Also, effective solution for reducing pressure pulsation and vibration are presented.

In this study, the authors carried out experiments and numerical simulations in order to clarify the pressure pulsation characteristics in multiple-delivery rotating-cam and stationary-cylinder type radial piston pumps. Also, a tee filter was applied to the pump in order to mitigate the pressure pulsation. Through the experiments and simulations, it was known that pressure pulsation with a magnitude higher than 40% of the mean load pressure could occur in the pump used in the experiments. Moreover, it was confirmed that a tee filter designed in this study could effectively mitigate the pressure pulsation.

For a hermetic reciprocating compressor, it has been known that the gas pulsation in the suction line affects the compressor performance, and suction muffler design has been focused on both of noise reduction and minimum pressure drop across the muffler. Some studies have been carried out on the mutual interaction between the gas pulsation and the cylinder pressure to investigate some supercharging effects, but their efforts were limited on rather simple geometries. In this paper, interaction of the gas pulsation in the compressor suction line with cylinder pressure via suction valve motion has been calculated; for the gas pulsation analysis, modeling of Helmholtz resonators in series was used, and for cylinder pressure calculation, energy equations was set up for the gas inside the cylinder. For demonstration of this calculation method, four different types of suction line configurations for a hermetic reciprocating compressor were compared in terms of compressor performance and gas pulsation level.

The nuclear reactor coolant pump transferring heat energy inherently brings with it the unsteady flow and inevitably threatens to the safe operation of the pump unit, especially with the pressure pulsation induced by the rotor-stator interaction. In this paper, the characteristics of pressure pulsation of the diffuser in a nuclear reactor coolant pump were investigated by the numerical simulation with experimental validation. Pressure pulsation signals measured synchronously from sensors mounted on the radial diffuser of a model pump were analyzed via Welch's method. Frequency components induced by the rotor-stator interaction can be revealed by the diameter mode analysis method. The pressure pulsation of the diffuser is dominated by the blade passing frequency and its harmonics, which are free from the effect of flow rate and rotational speed while the corresponding amplitudes are easily affected by different operational conditions and measuring positions. The non-uniformity is much more affected by the rotational speed than the flow rate. This research is helpful for further work to reduce the pressure pulsation for the reactor coolant pump.
