The main engine of a vehicle is used an common rail diesel engine for improving the efficiency of the whole load area. However, the generator engines is still used mechanical fuel injection valve drive cams. In addition, most of generator engines is applied a part-load operation of less than 50%. Therefore, diesel engine of vehicle set at 100% load is necessary to readjust in order to perform efficient operation because of part-load operation. In this study, the objective is to report the results of the part-load fuel consumption improvement by injection timing readjust to identify the operational characteristics of a generator engine currently operated in the facilities.

A gas turbine engine plays an important role as a prime mover that is used in the marine transportation field as well as the space/aviation and power plant fields. However, it has a complicated structure and there is a time delay element in the combustion process. Therefore, an elaborate mathematical model needs to be developed to control a gas turbine engine. In this study, a modeling technique for a gas generator, a PLA actuator, and a metering valve, which are major components of a gas turbine engine, is explained. In addition, sub-models are obtained at several operating points in a steady state based on the trial running data of a gas turbine engine, and a method for controlling the engine speed is proposed by designing an NPID controller for each sub-model. The proposed NPID controller uses three kinds of gains that are implemented with a nonlinear function. The parameters of the NPID controller are tuned using real-coded genetic algorithms in terms of minimizing the objective function. The validity of the proposed method is examined by applying to a gas turbine engine and by conducting a simulation.

본 논문은 펄스 직류전원 (Pulse DC) 플라즈마 소스와 반응성 가스인 $CF_4$와 불활성 가스인 Ar를 혼합하여 산업에서 널리 사용되는 유기고분자인 Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), Polyethylene terephthalate (PET), 그리고 Polycarbonate (PC) 샘플을 건식 식각한 결과에 대한 것이다. 각각의 샘플은 감광제 도포 후에 자외선을 조사하는 포토레지스트 방법으로 마스크를 만들었다. 펄스 직류전원 플라즈마 시스템을 사용하면 다양한 변수를 줄 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 공정 변수는 Pulse DC Voltage는 300 - 500 V, Pulse DC reverse time $0.5{\sim}2.0\;{\mu}s$, Pulse DC Frequency 100~250 kHz 이었다. 변수 각각의 값이 높아질수록 고분자의 식각률이 높아졌다. 특히, PMMA의 식각률이 가장 높았으며 PET, PC 순이었다. 샘플 중 PC의 식각률이 가장 낮은 이유는 고분자 결합 중에 이중결합의 벤젠 고리 모양을 포함하고 있어 분자 결합력이 비교적 높기 때문으로 사료된다. 기계적 펌프만을 사용한 공정 전 압력은 30 mTorr이었다. 쓰로틀 밸브를 완전 개방한 상태에서 식각 공정 중 진공 압력은 $CF_4$ 가스유량이 늘어날수록 증가하였다. 식각률 역시 $CF_4$ 가스유량(총 가스 유량은 10 sccm)이 많을수록 증가함을 보여주었다 (PMMA: 10 sccm $CF_4$에서 330 nm/min, 3.5 sccm $CF_4$/6.5 sccm Ar에서 260 nm/min., PET: 10 sccm $CF_4$에서 260 nm/min, 3.5 sccm $CF_4$/6.5 sccm Ar에서 210 nm., PC: 10 sccm $CF_4$에서 230 nm, 3.5 sccm $CF_4c$/6.5 sccm Ar에서 160 nm). 이는 펄스 직류전원 플라즈마 식각에서 $CF_4$와 Ar의 가스 혼합비를 조절함으로서 고분자 소재의 식각률을 적절히 변화시킬 수 있다는 것을 의미한다. 표면 거칠기는 실험 후 표면단차 측정기와 전자 현미경 등을 이용하여 식각한 샘플의 표면을 측정하여 알 수 있었다. 실험전 기준 샘플 표면 거칠기는 PMMA는 1.53nm, PET는 3.1nm, PC는 1.54nm 이었다. 식각된 샘플들의 표면 거칠기는 PMMA는 3.59~10.59 nm, PET은 5.13~11.32 nm, PC는 1.52~3.14 nm 범위였다. 광학 발광 분석기 (Optical emission spectroscopy)를 이용하여 식각 공정 중 플라즈마 발광특성을 분석한 결과, 탄소 원자 픽 (424.662 nm)과 아르곤 원자 픽 (751.465 nm, 763.510 nm)의 픽의 존재를 확인하였다. 이 때 탄소 픽은 $CF_4$ 가스에서 발생하였을 것으로 추측한다. 본 발표를 통해 펄스 직류전원 $CF_4$/Ar의 고분자 식각 결과에 대해 보고할 것이다.

A fuel spiking test was performed to measure the surge margin of the compressor in a gas turbine engine. During the test, fuel spiking signal is superposed on the engine controller demand signals and the combined signals are used to control a fuel control valve. For the superposition, a subsystem composed of a fuel controller and a function generator is used. The real engine test was performed at the Altitude Engine Test Facility (AETF) in Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI). In the preliminary test, the fuel spiking signals are in good agreement with the dynamic pressure at the fuel line and at the compressor discharge point. After the preliminary test, a fuel spiking test to measure the surge point at a specific engine speed was performed. The test results show that the fuel spiking test is very effective in the measurement of surge.

Recently, the needs of system performances such as working speed and processing accuracy in machine tools have been increased. Especially, the working speed increment generates harmful heat at both moving part of the machine tools and handicrafts. The heat is a main drawback to progress accuracy of the processing. Hence, a oil cooler to control temperature is inevitable for the machine tools. In general, two representative control schemes, hot-gas bypass and variable speed control of a compressor, have been adopted in the oil cooler system. This paper deals with design and implementation method of fuzzy controller for obtaining precise temperature characteristic of HB oil cooler system in machine tools. The opening angle of an electronic expansion valve are controlled to keep reference value and room temperature of temperature at oil outlet. Especially, the fuzzy controller is added to suppress temperature fluctuation under abrupt disturbances. Through some experiments, the suggested method can control the target temperature within steady state error of ${\pm}0.22^{\circ}C$.

This study aims at finding an optimal exhaust diffuser design of a high altitude testing chamber for a low bypass turbofan engine (F404-402) with thrust pound force of 17,700 and air mass flow rate of 66kg/s ejecting at a speed of Mach 1.66. The final proposed ejector size has better pressure recovery characteristics and targets to reduce operational cost at engine performance testing. Conventional high altitude test chamber layout was adopted and first drawn in two dimensions using Autocad software so as to determine the gas path, the ejector frontal size was then determined from gas dynamics equations considering traditional gas ejection method where both the engine exhaust and cell cooling air are exhausted via the ejector. Modification to a smaller ejector with an alternative secondary cell cooling exhaust port was then performed and modelled in 3D using Solid Works software.

With the ever increasing demand for data communication methods, powerline communication has become in interesting alternative method for data communication in home networking. For the purpose of home safety, several sensors will be installed at door, windows, gas alarm, etc. When considering home networking, the sensor data as well as other types of data should be supported in powerline communication. Usually the sensor data do not have priority over isochronous traffics (voice, video traffic), but in the case of urgent situation at home, the data of sensor being aware of the situation should be transmitted earlier than others. The objective in this paper is to develop a method for supporting an urgent data in home networking using powerline communication. We propose a modified algorithm of HomePlug 1.0 and show the results of computer simulation.

Oxygen, which is always present in the atmosphere among the three elements of combustion, can cause fires and explosions with only a very small amount of combustibles under high-pressure oxygen conditions. The burning rate is also significant, and can rise to temperatures that can have a direct impact, such as melting process equipment and piping in an instant. Therefore, accidents that occur under high pressure oxygen often cause more damage than other accidents. Recently, while operating a valve installed in an oxygen supply pipe, rapid combustion and rupture occurred inside, resulting in human casualties due to an explosion. In the case of an old carbon steel pipe, particles generated during operation become combustible and can cause accidents. . In particular, since oxygen facilities are facilities licensed under the High Pressure Gas Safety Management Actand there are no restrictions under the Occupational Safety and Health Act, accumulating these standards is of utmost importance. Therefore, in this study, based on accident cases and overseas standards, methods for improving safety when handling hyperbaric oxygen are reviewed.

Sulfur Hexafluoride, S $F_{6}$ is widely used for leak detection and as a gaseous dielectric in transformers, condensers and circuit breakers. S $F_{6}$ gas is also effective as a cleanser in the semiconductor industry. This paper presents a numerical study of the sealing force of disk type seal in S $F_{6}$ gas safety valve. The sealing force on the disk seal is analyzed by the FEM method based on the Taguch's experimental design technique. Disk seals in S $F_{6}$ gas safety valve are designed with 9 design models based on 3 different contact length, compressive ratio and gas pressure. The calculated results of Cauchy stress and strain showed that the sealing characteristics of Teflon $^{ }$PTFE is more effective compared to that of FKM(Viton), which is related to the stiffness of the materials. And also, the contact length of the disk seal is important design parameter for sealing the S $F_{6}$ gas leakage in the safety valve.afety valve.
