Geothermal energy is used in various types, such as power generation, direct use, and geothermal heat pumps. Geothermal energy with high temperature have been used for power generation for more than a century. The purpose of the study is to investigate flow and electricity power characteristics of hydraulic turbine for power generation of geothermal heat pump type with closed-system. The differences between the four types of hydraulic turbine, are different from the blade shape, volume, angle and etc. In case of prototype(1), pressure at blade was reduced to 2.1 bar, the kinetic energy of blade increased by increasing flow velocity(4.1 m/s). The increase of flow velocity at the blade edge markedly appeared, to increase the kinetic energy of the rotating shaft. In case that gateway in hydraulic turbine was installed, operating torque and RPM(1,080) of the rotating shaft increased respectively. Although rotational speed of prototype(2) compared to prototype(1) was reduced, the power generation capacity was greater about 3.4 times to 97 W. The most power of 255W was generated from prototype (4).

회전익 항공기에서 가장 심각한 문제의 한 가지는 로터의 회전에 의한 진동 가진이다. 이를 완화하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 능동 뒷전플랩(ATF)을 적용한 로터 블레이드를 개발하였다. 이 플랩은 로터 중심에서부터 65~85% 스팬에 장착되었다. 블레이드 회전 속도는 끝단에서 마하수를 충족하기 위하여 1,528rpm정도로 높은 수준이다. 이런 특별한 장치가 내부에 삽입된 블레이드에서는 구조적인 강건성을 파악하고 관찰하는 것이 중요하다. 플랩을 작동시키는 세밀한 부품들이 회전하는 블레이드 내에 삽입되기 때문이다. 블레이드의 구조적 설계와 분석을 위하여 CAMRAD-II와 1차원 보 모델을 이용하였다. 동시에 3차원 유한요소 해석 프로그램인 MSC. PATRAN/NSTRAN를 통해 현재 블레이드의 상세한 해석을 수행하였다. 그 결과 개발한 로터의 특성이 적절한 수준인 것으로 예측되었다.

This paper reports on the influence of blade surface roughness on turbine efficiency. The performance of a low speed one-stage axial turbine with roughened blade surfaces was evaluated. Sandpaper with equivalent sandgrain roughness ($k_s$) was used to roughen the blades. Efficiency (${\eta}/{\eta}_0$) decreases by 4.5 % with sandgrain size of 400 ${\mu}m$ on the stator suction surface.

본 연구에서는 모델 냉각통로 내에 대한 유동장 및 열전달 계수분포를 구하기 위하여 수치적 방법에 의한 접근을 시도하였고 이를 위하여 본 연구실에서 개발한 유한체적법 유동해석 프로그램인 TURBO-3D를 사용하였다. 계산 영역은 터빈날개 내의 냉각유로를 단순화한 ㄹ자 형태의 유로를 설정하였으며 등온상태의 유동에 대하여 해를 구하였다.실제 고온의 터빈날개내에서는 큰 온도구배에 의한 강한 부력효과가 예상되어 이를 무시할 수는 없으나 등온 가정하의 유동장으로부터 Reynolds analogy 에 의한 열전달특성의 유추가 가능하다. 그러므로, 본 연구에서는 특히 회전수의 변화에 따른 Coriolis효과의 변화 및 2차 유동의 구조를 파악하였고 또한 이들에 의한 주 유동장과 압력분포 및 국부 열전달 특성을 파악하였다.

This paper focuses on the effect of structural coupling in the behavior of composite rotor blade. We have searched for bending, extension and shear coupling term with the ply angle of rotor blade and the dynamic behavior of rotor blade for each coupling term. It was found that natural frequency increases as the rotating speed of rotor blade increases. In the couplings with feathering, bending coupling is main parameter, because bending coupling term is larger than shear . Also, the couplings with feathering is less effective in 0$^{\circ}$, 90$^{\circ}$, of ply angle and more variable at blade tip.

This paper describes aerodynamic performance enhancement of cycloidal rotor according to the blade pivot point movement and the blade preset angle adjustment. Cycloidal blade system which consists of several blades rotating about an axis in parallel direction and changing its pitch angle periodically, is a propulsion mechanism of a new concept vertical take off and landing aircraft, cyclocopter. Based on the designed geometry of cyclocopter, numerical analysis was carried out by a general purpose commercial CFD program, STAR-CD. According to tills analysis, the efficiency of cycloidal rotor could be improved more than 15% by the introduced methods.

Stationary and rotating blades can be found in a steam turbine generator and the airfoil shapes of these blades can be defined by point data from an aerodynamic design system. The main design process of blades is composed of two steps: first, the blade surface is modeled with the point data; and then, the section data is generated which contains composite curves with line segments and arcs for CAE of the blade. The surface is modeled by a curve-net defined by the point data, which may be extended to obtain the section data to model the blade. This paper presents methods for automating the above-mentioned steps, which have been implemented in the commercial CAD/CAM system, Unigraphics, with API functions written in C-language. Finally, the proposed methods have been applied to model the blade of a steam turbine generator.

Vertical axis wind energy systems including 3 and 4 blades are numerically investigated in a two-dimensional (2D) computational domain. The power coefficient (C_p) is adopted to measure the efficiency of the system and the effect of the rotating velocity on the power coefficient is analyzed for the two different systems. The rotating velocity varies from 30 rad/s to 90 rad/s, which corresponds to the tip speed ratio (T.S.R) of 0.5 to 1.5. The torque exerted on the blades is mainly determined by the aerodynamic force in the x-direction and maximized when the blade is positioned at around θ = 186°. The efficiency of the 4-blade system is higher than that of the 3-blade system within the tip speed ratio range between 0.5 and 0.67, besides where the 3-blade system shows a better performance. For the 3-blade system, the maximum efficiency is reached to 0.082 at the tip speed ratio of 1.083. The maximum efficiency of the 4-blade system is 0.071 at T.S.R. = 0.92. The velocity fields in the x-direction, pressure fields, and the vorticity magnitude are analyzed in detail for the optimal cases of the 3- and 4-blades systems, respectively.

The present study investigated local heat/mass transfer characteristics on the surface of the rotating turbine blade with various incidence angles. The experiments are conducted in a low speed annular cascade with a single stage turbine. The blade has a flat tip with the mean tip clearance of 2.5% of the blade chord. A naphthalene sublimation method is used to measure detailed mass transfer coefficient on the blade. At design condition, the inlet Reynolds number is $Re_c=1.5{\times}10^5$ which results in the blade rotation speed of 255.8 rpm. Also, the effect of off-design condition is examined with various incidence angles between $-15^{\circ}$ and $+7{\circ}$. The results indicated that the incidence angle has significant effects on the blade surface heat transfer. In mid-span region, the laminar separation region on the pressure side is reduced and the laminar flow region on the suction side shrinks with increasing incidence angle. Near the tip, the effect of tip leakage flow increases in span wise and axial directions as the incidence angle decreases because the tip leakage flow is formed near the suction side surface. However, the effect of tip leakage flow is reduced with positive incidence angle.
