In this study, a wind tunnel, that has been developed for experiments of wind turbine rotor blades, has been considered. The deviations of the measurements have been examined after this wind tunnel had been introduced and the measurements on it had been explained. Two different wind turbine rotor blades miniatures have been used for getting better results from the experiments. The accuracy of measurements have been experimented three times repetitively and examined statistically. As a result, wind speed values which this type of wind tunnel and wind turbine rotors need for starting, wind speed in the tunnel, temperature and moisture values, the number of rotor's revolution, and the voltage that is produced in 102 ${\Omega}$ resistance and current values have been determined to be fixed by measurements used. This type of wind tunnel and wind turbine rotor' performance difference and the difference of revolution figures have been determined to be fixed by measurements used.

The accurate identification of the motor parameters in crucially important to achieve high dynamic performance of induction motors. In this paper parameter auto-tuning algorithms for stator(rotor) resistance stator(rotor) leakage inductance mutual inductance and rotor inertia. Stator(rotor) resistance and stator(rotor) leakage inductance are identified based on the stationary coordinate and mutual inductance and rotor resistor on the scalar speed control and the transient motor terminal voltage. To demonstrate the practical significance of our results we present some experimented results.

In this research, a design guideline of current generating rotor and acceptable field rotor in offshore environment is proposed. To design rotor model, wind mill rotor design principles and turbine theories were applied based on a field rotor experimental data. To verify the compatibility of the rotor design method and to analyze the properties of design factors, 3 rotor models were designed and experimented in a circular water channel. Three rotor models were designed according to different blade numbers and blade shapes. With various flow velocities and rotor rpm, the rotor power and efficiency were measured and the properties of rotor were estimated. The results can be effectively applied to the design of current generation rotor.

In this research, a design guideline of current generating HAT rotor and acceptable field rotor in offshore environment is proposed. To design HAT rotor model, wind mill rotor design principles and turbine theories were applied based on a field HAT rotor experimental data. To verify the compatibility of the rotor design method and to analyze the properties of design factors, 3 rotor models were designed and experimented in a circular water channel. Three rotor models were designed according to different blade numbers and blade shapes. By changing flow velocity, rotor rpm, the rotor power and efficiency were measured and the properties of rotor were estimated. The results can be effectively applied to the design of current generation rotor.

As a fundamental investigation to develop a sensor which is able to detect shorted turn phenomenon of generator rotor, we have experimented with self-made sensor using flux generator and high-resolution oscilloscope. We have recorded sensor-induced voltage according to the different condition, such as variations of turn, diameter and length of sensor. Based on the acquired data, we analyzed and simulated under similar circumstances of actual spot to maximize reliability. We have a plan to invest more resources to supply power plants with the developed sensor for ourselves.

In this study, we are investigated experimentally the pumping characteristics about the pumping channel shapes of disk-type drag pump (DTDP). We are experimented the pumping performance about the rotors which have channel or do not exist. The channel disk-type rotor has spiral channels both upper and lower part, and stator is planar. The planar disk-type rotor hasn't channel and stator has spiral channels both upper and lower part. The flow-meter method is adopted to calculate the pumping speed. Compression ratio and pumping speeds for the nitrogen gas are measured under the inlet pressure range of 0.001 ${\sim}$ 4 Torr. The maximum of compression ratio was about 3300 for three-stage DTDP (channel disk-type rotor), 1000 for four-stage (planar disk-type rotor) and two-stage DTDP (channel disk-type rotor) at zero throughput. The ultimate pressure was $1.6{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr for three-stage DTDP (channel disk-type rotor), $2.5{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr for four-stage DTDP (planar disk-type rotor).

This paper presents experimental results of the attitude control for a two-rotor system with 3-DOF(degree-of-freedom). Two DC motors are equipped at the two ends of a rectangular beam to generate lift force and the relation between motor voltage and lift force is found experimentally. And inertial sensors are mounted at the center of the beam to measure the roll angle and a complementary filter is designed to get the angle during DC motors driving. A controller with nonlinear compensation, integrator and state feedback to achieve asymptotic tracking for a step input and reject input disturbance is designed and experimented.

In this paper, we propose a control method to improve control performance for a Quad-rotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicle's stabilization. The proposed method is the Fuzzy+I control that contains a fuzzy controller which processes signals from the error and the change of error, and generates the control signal by summing up fuzzy output signal and integral signal. We simulated and experimented on the fuzzy+I control method by implementing Quad-rotor UAV that is able to hovering, for the purpose of verifying the effectiveness of the proposed fuzzy+I control method in comparison with general PID control, and we found out that fuzzy+I controller improved control performance of the system.

This paper considers a modeling for the MIMO magnetic bearing system. The rotor is flexible and has a complex shape. To obtain the nominal plant transfer functions, we perform a numerical analysis by using the finite element method(F.E.M.) for the rotor's dynamics, and make a nominal model by reducing the modes from the results. And, we have experimented on the frequency response by a closed-loop identification method, and compared it with the simulation's result on the closed-loop control system.

The capacitive type transducers measure the displacement of rotating shaft using the voltage difference which is formed between the sensor plates and rotor so that the measured signal is not affected by the magnetic field generated by the magnetic bearing. In this paper, the capacitive transducers are embedded inside of the magnetic bearing. In order to verify the support characteristics of the capacitance sensor-magnetic bearing system, we experimented and analyzed the magnetic bearing-rotating shaft system up to 12,000 rpm. The magnetic bearing system proposed in this paper, successfully supports the rotating shaft and we can remain the maximum displacement below $5 \mu m$ at 12,000 rpm.
