Screw rotors are core parts of screw type air compressors, compressors in refrigerating machines and super chargers of automobiles etc. They are composed of a female and a male rotors which have complex section profiles and helically swept geometry. Screw type compressors have advantages of low noise, high efficiency, less needs in maintenance etc. Usually, machining process of screw rotors requires long machining time using CNC machine designed only for screw rotors, which increase the cost of production. In this work, the screw rotors for air-compressors were manufactured with fiber reinforced epoxy composite materials by resin transfer molding process. The mold for the RTM process was made of aluminum and silicon rubber and was designed for release of helical shape products. Composite screw rotors, manufactured by RTM process, have advantages of lightweight, less cost of production, good characteristics of vibration etc.

The theory for a fault-tolerant control of homopolar magnetic bearings is developed. New coil winding law is utilized such that control fluxes are isolated for an 8-pole homopolar magnetic bearing. Decoupling chokes are not required for the fault tolerant magnetic bearing since C-core fluxes are isolated. If some of the coils or power amplifiers suddenly fail, the remaining coil currents change via a distribution matrix such that the same magnetic forces are maintained before and after failure. Lagrange multiplier optimization with equality constraints is utilized to calculate the optimal distribution matrix that maximizes the load capacity of the failed bearing. Some numerical examples of distribution matrices are provided to illustrate the theory. Simulations show that very much the same dynamic responses (orbits or displacements) are maintained throughout failure events while currents and fluxes change significantly.

This paper deals with electromagneitc characteristics analysis of high-speed brushless DC motor. First, under same rated and restricted conditions, four models which have different slot combinations each other are designed using 2-d finite element (FE) analyses. Designed models are analyzed and compared in terms of core loss, copper loss, eddy-current loss, etc. On the basis of analysis results, it is found that the motor with a 2-pole PM rotor and a 6-slot stator has most outstanding performances in electromagnetic aspects.

본 연구의 목적은 여러 가지 비행 모드 상의 로터 성능을 효율적으로 예측하는 것이다. 헬리콥터의 공력 특성을 예측하기 위한 비정상 source-doublet 패널 기법 기반의 수치 기법을 개발하였다. 후류의 형상 예측에는 시간 전진 자유후류모델이 사용되었다. 점성에 의한 확산을 고려한 후류의 roll-up 모사를 위하여 후류의 doublet 패널은 같은 강도의 와류고리로 대체하여 계산하였다. 후류와 양력면의 충돌 문제는 표면격자 내부에 들어간 와류고리의 포텐셜값을 제거하여 해결하였다. 제자리비행의 해석 시에 나타나는 와류 불안정성의 해결에는 slow starting과 vortex core growth 모델을 사용하였다. 로터 공력 해석 프로그램은 제자리비행과 전진비행에 대한 실험 결과와 비교하여 검증하였으며, 실험치와 일치하는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

A Superconducting Rotary Machine (SRM) is characterized by an air-cored machine with its rotor iron and stator iron teeth removed. For this reason, the SRM is featured by 3D magnetic flux distribution, which decreases in the direction of axis. Therefore, 3D magnetic field analysis method is required to know about characteristic of magnetic field distribution of SRM. In this paper, 3D flux distribution of SRM is calculated by analytical method. The magnetic field distribution of the field coils is calculated by Biot-Savart equation. The magnetic core is represented by magnetic surface polarities. This paper describes the combined use of above methods for the total field computation, and compares results of analytical method and 3D FEM(Finite Element Method).

Generally, the structure without the stator core Axial Field Permanent Magnet (AFPM) generator was simple and there was nearly no cogging toque. And because it had the wide driving rate area, it had been being mainly used in the small wind power generation system. However, AFPM generator with non-slotted stator can't generate high voltage at low wind speed due to long air-gap. It is the reason of output efficiency drop. Therefore, in this paper, the AFPM synchronous generator with internal rotor and dual slotted stators for the small wind turbine is studied, and deal with a cogging torque minimization through the determination of optimum pole-arc ratio.

The purpose of this paper is characteristic analysis of multi-disk axial-gap pm motor for turbo compressor. The axial-gap permanent magnet motor has shown a growing interest in high-speed application for its high-efficiency, compact size and low vibration characteristics due to core-less structure. To achieve high-power, the axial-gap PM motor has multi-disk structure of stator and rotor disk. Because of its complicated magnetic flux path, it is not easy to calculate a dynamic characteristics using finite element analysis. In this paper, the simplified 2-D unfolded model to predict EMF characteristic is presented. To verify thesuggested 2-D unfolded model analysis of back-EMF characteristic was calculated and compared 3-D finite element. Finally the proposed method is verified by experimental results and shows good agreement with test results.

The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has proposed new vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft known as the Jet-VTOL aircraft shown in Fig.1. The Jet-VTOL aircraft is based on a canard wing configuration. The aircraft has the clustered lift-fans mounted near the center of gravity for vertical flight, and has the clustered fans mounted beside the vertical tail for cruise flight. Both fans are driven by the core engine mounted inside the aft end of fuselage. The propulsion system is innovative and attractive not to be seen even in the world.

Lift Fan Engines of JAXA's conceptual Jet VTOL aircraft have a very small bellmouse shape air intake, which make some differences in aerodynamic design of the blades. To obtain a better rotor or stator blade design, this paper performs a numerical analysis of the throughflow on a lift fan as a two-dimensional axisymmetrical flow. Based on the last report focusing on the air intake's influence on the throughflow, a more realistic bellmouse air intake case is treated to reconsider the influence on the throughflow by the small bellmouse air intake. Three work input patterns are tested to reduce some problematic influences on the throughflow or blade designs. The obtained result shows one of acceptable blade designs for the lift fan engine.

Concentrated flux interior permanent magnet (CFIPM) motors have the advantage that their utilization of flux linkage is more efficient than that of general IPM motors and CFIPM motors are suitable for washing machine motors, which demand low-speed, high-torque specifications. However, low efficiency occurs in the low-speed high-torque mode considering the high-speed operation for spin mode. This paper proposes a magnet overhang structure between the rotor core that reduces leakage flux and improves efficiency for a CFIPM in wash mode. Optimization of the 3D design of magnet overhang structures is performed to improve the efficiency with the same quantity of permanent magnets. The validity of the optimal design is experimentally verified through the fabrication of prototypes.
