Lubrication characteristics between a cylinder block and a valve plate for high speed bent-axis type hydraulic pump play an important role in volumetric efficiency and durability of pump. In this paper, a finite element method is presented for the computation of the pressure distribution between a cylinder block and a valve plate for high speed bent-axis type hydraulic pump. Also, a Runge-Kutta method is applied to simulate the cylinder block dynamics of three-degrees of freedom motion. From the results of computation, we can draw two major conclusions. One is related to the fluid film characteristics between a cylinder block and a valve plate and the other is related to the average leakage that is determined by the pressure gradient and the clearance near the discharge port. The numerical results of cylinder block dynamics were compared with the experimental results using eddy-current type gap sensors those are fixed at a pump housing.

The design of a high speed axial piston pump for hydrostatic transmission systems requires specific understanding on where and how much its internal frictional and flow losses are generated. In this study, the frictional loss of a bentaxis type hydraulic piston pump was analyzed in order to find out which design factors influence the mechanical efficiency most significantly. To this end, the friction coefficients of the sliding components were experimentally identified by a specially constructed tribometer. Applying them to the three-dimensional dynamic model of the pump presented by Doh and Hong [1], the friction torques generated by the sliding components such as piston head , bearing and valve plate were theoretically computed. The accuracy of the computed results was confirmed by the comparison with the experimentally measured mechanical efficiency. In this paper, it is shown that the viscous friction on the valve plate and the drive shaft bearing is the primary sources of the frictional losses of the bent-axis type pump, while the friction forces on the piston contribute to them only slightly.

LabVIEW is mostly preferred to use in experiment, measurement and control as one of the useful thing in America and Europe. So, We tried performance experiment of a single-stage closed-type centrifugal pump by using the LabVIEW. The pump rpm and the shaft torque are measured by rpm sensor and torque sensor The test pump's maximum rpm, head, kW are 1,750, 13m, and 1.5kW, respectively The casing is made up with transparency acrylic for confirmation the flow patterns. We installed experimental equipment for air water two phase flow. This paper tries to analyze the single-phase flow characteristics through this air water two phase flow experimental apparatus. The performance results of a single-stage closed-type centrifugal pump satisfied reappearance and coincide well with head and coefficients according to the change of rpm.

A better flow condition for the intake of pump is provided by the sump pump that connects the forebay to the intake of the pump station. If the suction sump is improperly shaped or sized, air-entraining vortices or submerged vortices may develop. These phenomena may greatly affect pump operation if vortices become sufficiently large. Moreover, any remaining vortices in the pump flow passage may result in an increase in the noise and vibration of the pump. Therefore, the vortices in the pump flow passage must be reduced to achieve good pump sump station performance. In this study, the effect of suction pipe leaning angle on the pump sump's internal flow is investigated. Additionally, a pipe type with an elbow shape is investigated. The results show that the air entraining vortices occur under the condition of a water level ratio H/D = 1.31 for each suction pipe type.

In this study,the compact type solar thermal and ground coupled heat pump hybrid system for space heating/cooling and hot water supply has been developed. This hybrid system was installed in Zero Energy Solar House(ZeSH) in KIER for the demonstration. The thermal performance and operational characteristics of this hybrid system were analysed especially. The results are as follows. (1) This hybrid system was designed in order to address the existing disadvantages of solar thermal/ground coupled heat pump system. For this design, all parts except solar collector and ground coupled heat pump were integrated into a single product in a factory. The compact type unit includes two buffer tanks, an expansion tank, pumps, valves, a controller, etc. This system has an advantage of easy installation with simple plumbing work even in narrow space. (2) The thermal charging and discharging time of the buffer tanks and its characteristics by ground coupled heat pump, and heat pump COP according to geo-source temperature and buffer storage temperature have been studied. This system was found to meet well to the heat load without any other auxiliary heating equipment. (3) The operating hours of the ground coupled heat pump as a backup device of solar thermal can be reduced significantly by using solar heat. It was also found that the minimum heating water supply setting temperature and maximum cooling water supply setting temperature make an influence on the heat pump COP. The lower heating water and the higher cooling water temperature, the higher COP. In this respect, the hybrid system's performance can be improved in ZeSH than conventional house.

In this study, the performance of high-pressure fuel pumps was compared to find a high-pressure pump suitable for dimethyl ether (DME) fuel, and to establish a database of basic data on flow rates. The use of DME in compression ignition engines can reduce pollutant emissions. The cetane value of DME is higher than that of diesel fuel. The physical properties of DME are similar to liquefied gasoline gas (LPG), and when pressurized at a pressure of 6 bar or more, it changes from gas to liquid. Two types of high pressure pumps used in this study were independent injection type pump and a wobble plate type pump. Two high-pressure pumps with different injection types were compared. By measuring and comparing the performance changes of the two high-pressure pumps, a pump suitable for DME was selected and performance improvement measures were proposed. The changed experimental conditions to measure the performance change of the high pressure pump were increased in the units of 100 to 1,000 rpm and 100 rpm, and the experiment was performed at common rail pressures 300 and 400 bar. it was confirmed that the DME inside the fuel supply system remained in a liquid state through temperature sensors, pressure sensors, and pressure gauges. As a result of the experiment, it was confirmed that the flow rate discharged from the high-pressure fuel pump increased as the motor rotational speed increased, and the flow rate of the high-pressure fuel pump

Generally block imbedded type oil pump is adopted to make a small engine. In this paper 1D/3D numerical simulations were conducted to reduce energy consumption of the block imbedded type oil pump. At each stage of engine development we have estimated the oil flow rate and pressure to optimize oil pump sizes by using the 1D system analysis and then accomplished 3D CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulations to optimize oil pump shapes including inlet/outlet port. As a result, the energy consumption of oil pump has been reduced to nearly 27% and the engine fuel consumption to $1{\sim}1.5%$.

The ionic air pump can be used towards the thermal management of micro-electronic devices, since the size of pump can be reduced to micrometer orders. In addition, an air pump allows air flow control and generation with low noise and no moving parts. These ideal characteristics of the pump give rise to variety applications. However, all of these applications would benefit from maximizing the flow velocities of the pumps. In this study a surface discharge type air pump, with a third electrode, has been investigated by focusing on elevating the wind velocity and efficiency. As a result, the enhanced ionic wind velocity could be obtained with the third electrode of the proposed air pump.
