Abstract

In this study, the flow path width (Gap Size), which is the flow path of fluid, was selected differently among various factors that determine the Ccontrol Force of MR damper, and the change of Control Force was confirmed accordingly. For this purpose, two MR dampers with a Gap Size of 1.0mm and 1.5mm were fabricated, respectively, and dynamic load experiments were conducted according to changes in applied current and vibration conditions The experimental results showed that the minimum Control Force was 3.2 times higher than 1.5mm in the case of 1.0mm Gap Size, and the maximum Control Force was 2.3 times higher than 1.5mm in the case of 1.0mm Gap Size. In addition, the increased width of the Control Force according to applied current was 34N for Gap Size 1.0mm, and 12.7N for Gap Size 1.5mm. As the gap Size increased, the overall Control Force and the increase in the Control Force by the applied current decreased. Next, the dynamic range, which is a performance evaluation index of the semi-active Control device, was 2.3 on average under 1.0mm condition and 2.8 on average under 1.5mm condition, confirming the possibility of utilization as a semi-active Control device.

본 연구에서는 MR Damper의 제어력을 결정하는 다양한 요인들 중, 유로폭(Gap Size)을 다르게 선정하여 그에 따른 제어력의 변화를 확인하였다. 이를 위해 Gap Size 1.0mm, 1.5mm인 MR Damper 두 대를 제작하고 인가전류와 가진조건을 정하였으며 그에 따른 동하중 실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과 최소제어력은 Gap Size 1.0mm 조건이 Gap Size 1.5mm 조건보다 3.2배 높았으며 최대제어력은 Gap Size 1.0mm 조건이 Gap Size 1.5mm 조건보다 2.3배 높았다. 또한, 인가전류에 따른 제어력의 증가폭은 Gap Size 1.0mm일 때 34N, Gap Size 1.5mm일 때 12.7N으로 나타났다. Gap Size가 커질수록 전체 제어력과 인가전류에 따른 제어력의 증가는 감소하였다. 두 개의 MR Damper의 동적범위를 확인해 본 결과 Gap Size 1.0mm일 때 평균 2.3, Gap Size 1.5mm일 때 평균 2.8인 것을 볼 때 두 MR Damper의 준능동제어장치로써 사용가능성을 확인하였다.
