This paper is a basic study on volatile organic compounds(VOC) recovery system in a crude oil carrier. VOC is easily evaporated in cargo tankers during loading and transportation of crude oil, causes serious environmental contamination and a huge economic loss. An ejector system is designed to mix VOC gas into crude oil flow to reduce VOC concentration. Detail two-phase flow inside the ejector is simulated using a commercial CFD code. To verify the numerical prediction, a scale-down experiment is conducted. Instead of crude oil and VOC, water and air are used as the working fluids. Flow characteristics and main parameters are obtained by two-phase flow visualization and PIV measurements. Air volume flow rate induced by the ejector is compared with respect to the volume flow rate of water using experimental and numerical results. Overall performance of the two-phase ejector predicted by the CFD simulation agrees well with that of the experiment.

Thermalhydraulic reactor simulation of tomorrow will require a new generation of codes combining at least three scales, the CFD scale in open medium, the component scale and the system scale. DNS will be used as a support for modelling more macroscopic models. NEPTUNE is such a new generation multi-scale platform developed jointly by CEA-DEN and EDF-R&D and also supported by IRSN and FRAMATOME-ANP. The major steps towards the next generation lie in new physical models and improved numerical methods. This paper presents the advances obtained so far in physical modelling for each scale. Macroscopic models of system and component scales include multi-field modelling, transport of interfacial area, and turbulence modelling. Two-phase CFD or CMFD was first applied to boiling bubbly flow for departure from nucleate boiling investigations and to stratified flow for pressurised thermal shock investigations. The main challenges of the project are presented, some selected results are shown for each scale, and the perspectives for future are also drawn. Direct Numerical Simulation tools with Interface Tracking Techniques are also developed for even smaller scale investigations leading to a better understanding of basic physical processes and allowing the development of closure relations for macroscopic and CFD models.

A Low cost and variable speed brushless motor drive system with single switch per phase is presented. The motor drive is realized with a novel two-phase flux-reversal-free switched reluctance motor and a split AC two switch converter. The strategy of the controller and the converter for its realization are described. Comparisons between a split AC converter, asymmetric converter, split DC converter, single controllable switch converter, and N+1 converter are performed for its device rating, cost, switching losses and conduction losses, and converter efficiency. The split AC converter is analyzed and simulated to verify the characteristics of the converter circuitry and control feasibility and the simulation results are presented. The efficiency with various loads is numerically estimated and experimentally compared from viewpoint of subsystem and system in details. The focus of this paper is to compare the presented motor drive system to the asymmetric converter system throughout experiments and demonstrate single switch per phase converter having comparable efficiency as the asymmetric converter system.

In this paper, 2 phase modulated SRPP-PWM(Separately Random Pulse Position PWM) is proposed. This PWM technique is based on the 2 phase modulated SVPWM(Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation). In according to the theory of SVPWM, 2 phase modulated SVPWM uses two pulses, not three pulses as in 3 phase modulated SVPWM. In the proposed SRPP-PWM scheme, each of two phase pulses is located randomly in each switching interval. The experimental results show that the voltage and switching noise harmonics are spread to a wide band area. Also, the performance of the proposed 2 phase modulated SRPP-PWM and the conventional SVPWM are compared to each other In result, the speed response is nearly similar to each other from the viewpoint of the v/f constant control.

A two-degree of freedom model is suggested to understand the basic dynamical behaviors of the interaction between two masses of the friction induced vibration system. The two masses may be considered as the pad and the disk of the brake, The phase space analysis is performed to understand complicated dynamics of the non-linear model. Attractors in the phase space are examined for various conditions of the parameters of the model especially by emphasizing on the damping parameters. In certain conditions, the attractor becomes a limit cycle showing the stick-slip phenomena. In this paper, not only the existence of the limit cycle but also the size of the limit cycle is examined to demonstrate the non-linear dynamics that leads the unstable state. For the two different cases of the system frequency ((1)two masses with same natural frequencies, (2) with different natural frequencies), the propensity of limit cycle is discussed in detail. The results show an important fact that it may make the system worse when too much damping is present in the only one part of the masses.

This paper proposes a new magnetic resonant wireless power transfer system. Two transmitters are arranged to secure a range wider than the existing one-to-one resonance, thereby enhancing the practicality of the system. Two identical transmission units are arranged to strengthen the magnetic field and to subsequently increase the magnitude and distance of the power transmitted to the reception unit. A constant power can be maintained in a wide range through the phase control of different output powers according to the positions of the transmitting and receiving coils. A constant power can also be obtained by transmitting to the receiver. The experiment results show that the proposed method outperforms the conventional method.

This paper deals with a continuous-review two-echelon inventory model with one-for-one replenishment and Poisson demand where transshipments among retailers are allowed. Two classes of inventory systems are considered by the number of distribution centers(DCs) which provide each retailor with inventory items. 1:N class inventory system and M:N class inventory system respectively. Two-phase model is constructed to find out the optimal inventory positions which minimize supply chain costs. Approximations for customer service levels of the system are evaluated in the first phase, and the optimal inventory positions are found subject to the constraints for service level in the second phase. Simulation tests are performed to assure the effectiveness of the proposed model. The effect of transshipment is evaluated.

The optimal gain design method of a three-phase boost converter is proposed in this study. The control system has a two-loop configuration, in which each controller is coupled closely; thus, the optimal design is difficult to achieve using conventional gain-tuning method. The proposed method is adopted to the MATLAB SISO TOOL software and is based on the controller requirements, which are phase margin and cut-off frequency of the open-loop system. The optimal proportional -integral gains can be designed easily using the proposed interactive method of the SISO TOOL. The performance of the proposed system is verified through simulation and experiments.
