It is possible for a volume of fluid to become trapped in the space between two adjoining teeth ad the tips of the teeth engage in Gear Pump with involute teeth. This trapped fluid leads to several harmful results, for example fluctuating pressure and aeration of pump. In this study, hence, theoretical and experimental analyses on this 'Trapping' were accomplished as using relief port(or escape port), one of the means for avoid it. Also, the grasp and analysis on variational type of the internal pressure in parallel with above experiments are achieved so that hydrodynamic behaviors in pump were contemplated.

In order to improve the efficiency of hydraulic gear pumps or motors especially for high operating pressure, power losses due to viscous friction and leak flow through gear teeth end-gaps are considered in this paper. Optimal gaps minimizing the power loss for pumps and motors with uniform heights of gaps are analysed first. And the effect of the shapes of gaps with unequal heights on the power loss are studied and discussed by simulation. Considering that the outer shell lacing gear teeth may expand due to high internal pressure or thermal stress, the results drawn in this paper can be used for the design of high efficiency pumps and motors.

Magnetic Fluid Linear Pump(MFLP)는 자성유체의 자기적 성질과 유체의 성질을 이용하여 일반적인 펌프의 기어 대신 자성유체를 이용하여 기계적 진동이나 소음을 최소화한 시스템이다. MFLP는 구조가 간단하고 동작전류에 의해 쉽게 조절할 수 있다. MFLP의 동작전류에 의해 발생한 자기장의 정도에 따라 유연하면서 펌핑력이 높은 동작이 가능하다. 따라서 MFLP를 운전하는데 있어 동작전류의 패턴과 크기, 중첩정도에 따른 펌핑력이 변하게 되며, 이에 따른 자기장과 관내의 자성유체의 형상을 해석하여 유연하고 펌핑력이 높은 MFLP의 운전방식을 개발하고자 하였다.

The parameter-based cardiovascular impedance simulator that is able to overcome the limits of conventional mock circulatory systems is critical for the development and test of biomedical devices including artificial heart. The concept of impedance simulator was validated mathematically in a previous study using high-gain feedback linearization control which, however, may cause serious difficulties and limits for practical implementation. In this study, therefore, practical applicability of the impedance simulator is investigated considering the physical limits such as motor speed and torque. Simple PID controller which do not require complex model of the simulator is used considering the practical implementation. Design guidelines of the impedance simulator are also provided based on the results.

A gerotor can be manufactured in a miniature size because it has a high discharge per cycle and a simple structure. Gerotors are widely used for the lubrication oil of an engine and as the hydraulic source of an automatic transmission. Recently, improvements in fuel efficiency and noise reduction have come to the fore in the automobile industry, and it has been necessary for better fuel efficiency to continuously improve the flow rate and noise of internal gear pumps through the optimal design of the gerotor and port shape. In this study, gerotors were generated based on the equations derived for a lobe shape with multiple profiles (ellipse 1-elliptical involute-ellipse 2). The ranges of the design parameters were considered to prevent a cusp and loop. In addition, the optimal lobe shape was obtained by determining the influence of the lobe shape on the performances (flow rate, irregularity, etc.), according to the values of the design parameters.

To investigate the effect of oil on evaporation heat transfer of plate heat exchanger, evaporation heat transfer experiment was carried out using experimental apparatus for micro gear pumped R134a-oil circulation. By varying oil circulation rate of POE oil from 0 to 5%, evaporation heat transfer performance of plate heat exchanger was investigated. As OCR(Oil Circulation Ratio) increases, the evaporation heat transfer coefficient of R134a decreases and pressure drop increases. When the evaporating temperature is $30^{\circ}C$ and the refrigerant mass flow rate is 80 g/s, evaporation heat transfer rate decreases by 10 % and pressure drop increases by 10% at 2% of OCR condition.

The pipe cleaning process is a crucial step in the shipbuilding process of a shipyard. It involves removing foreign substances from the inside of the pipes before moving on to the stage of testing equipment after installing the pipes. If there are foreign substances inside the pipes and the equipment is tested, the foreign substances can enter the high-priced equipment and become a factor in the breakdown of pumps, gears, bearings, and other components. Especially in the case of pumps or hydraulic valves, even small foreign substances can lead to major accidents if they enter the equipment, and such equipment accidents can be a potential cause of major disasters, leading to accidents involving workers operating the equipment in the vicinity. Therefore, it is a process that shipyard customers, who are shipowners, also focus on and manage very intensively. To solve these problems, this study developed a system that can increase the cleaning effect of the cleaning fluid inside the pipes by increasing the flow of the cleaning fluid inside the pipes in the existing pipe cleaning method.

The purpose of this paper is to study and analyze the failure examples on tribological characteristics of an automotive steering system. In this failure study, the grease leakage may stick leaked grease, dust, and wear particles between pinion and rack gears in mechanical steering system. In the case of seal failures such as a rod seal, o-ring and oil seals, the gear box and oil pump do not operate properly due to lack of oils. This means that oil pump does not supply a working fluid and produce a normal oil pressure of the steering system. This leads to leak a working fluid from the seals and produce a wear between pinion and rack gears. Especially, the leaked oil is usually mixed with internal wear particles and foreign dust/fine sands. Thus no leakage of working oils is very important design concepts, which is strongly related to the sealing components and smoothly operating of the mechanical friction parts of power steering system.
