최근 내연 기관에서 엔진상태 및 잠재적인 결함의 발견을 위해 연료분사, 실린더 내 연소과정, 실린더 내부와 피스톤 마모상태, 흡 배기 밸브 및 과급기 (turbocharger) 등의 상태 모니터링을 통해서 결함에 대한 진단 및 경향관리에 대한 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기 개발된 선박용 대형디젤엔진에 대한 상시 모니터링 시스템을 이용하여 엔진상태 및 잠재적인 결함을 진단하고자 하였으며, 일차적으로 가속도 신호를 이용하여 실린더 내 연소과정에서 정상적인 상태와 착화실패에 따른 진동 양상을 비교 분석하였다. 신호 분석 기법으로 시간-주파수 분산 기법들은 충격파 신호인 엔진 폭발신호를 분석하는데 적합하였으며, 그 기법들 중 Short Time Fourier Transform 기법과 Wavelet Transform 기법을 이용하였다.

자동차 관련 소음 및 진동중 엔진과 관련된 것은 흡.배기계 소음과 엔진 자 체의 각 구동 부위 및 연소실 소음으로 대별하여 볼수 있다. 특히 연소실 소 음의 경우에는 엔진 내부에서 발생하는 진동과 압력파가 엔진을 진동시키고, 이러한 엔진의 진동이 방사음을 발생시켜 형성되는 만큼 그 해석 및 공학적 접근 방법이 용이하지 않다. 연소실 소음은 압력의 갑작스런 변화에 의한 폭 발소음과 피스톤과 실린더 벽면의 충돌에 의한 피스톤 슬랩(piston slap)으로 크게 구분할 수 있으며 압력이 높지 않고 압력의 변화가 빠르지 않을 경우 에는 피스톤 슬랩이 기계적 소음의 주 원인이 되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 고에서는 피스톤 슬랩에 의한 진동 현상을 예측하기 위한 이론적 접근 방법 을 제시하고 이의 타당성을 검증하기 위한 실험적 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 또한, 피스톤과 실린더의 간극 진단을 위해 슬랩 신호를 이용하는 방법에 대 해 살펴보고, 피스톤과 실린더의 충돌 속도를 통해 슬랩 신호를 줄이기 위한 엔진의 설계 방법에 대해 살펴보고자 한다.

Marine diesel engines operate in environments in which damage easily occurs from corrosion. Recently, damage to cylinder liners has increased from corrosion wear caused by increased engine power. This damage can cause serious problems in the economy. Thus, many researchers have treated and studied damaged cylinder liners. However, a method is necessary for real-time monitoring of damage to cylinder liners during operation of the engine, before serious damage can occur. This study carries out reciprocating friction and wear tests on a cast iron specimen under various corrosion atmospheres and verifies the variations of friction coefficient and friction surface. Additionally, the friction coefficient and friction status are predicted by using a neural network that learns the vibration and frequency spectrum data from an acceleration sensor. According to our conclusions, amplitude is distributed highly at high frequencies, and values of standard deviation and kurtosis are high when damage to the friction surface is serious. The accuracy rate of the friction coefficient predicted by the neural network is over 80% of the real measured value without NaCl, and application of the neural network is very effective for diagnosing the friction condition and damage to the cylinder liner.

Four-stroke cycles in an automobile engine are suction stroke, compression stroke, combustion stroke and exhaustion stroke. A normal operation of engine in compression and power stroke must be processed in optimal fuel-air pressure. In this paper we describe a development of measuring equipment for engine cylinder pressure with observing supply current to self motor(start motor). By comparing the current wave on pressure of the 4 or 6 cylinder in engine, a abnormal cylinder state will be found. The validity of the proposed measuring equipment was shown by experiment for real automobile.

This paper is study on the pressure monitoring system(PMS) for ship's engine performance analysis( SEPA) based on web, with high speed and accuracy. This system is composed of pressure sensor, monitoring module with multi channel A/D converter, TCP/IP and satellite internet communication system. Existing domestic products measure cylinder pressure when piston of first explosive cylinder reached TDC(the top dead center) point and then measure next cylinder pressure manually each angle divided by a constant rotating interval. But presented system monitors in the local and web computer, using pressure information transmitted from pressure sensor installed on each engine. In this system, it is possible to increase the accuracy of the engine performance analysis because not only each TDC points but cylinder pressures synchronized with the TDC points could be measured in real time, accurately. And therefore, it may be used in a various diagnosis of main engines, such as deviations of each cylinder maximum pressures(Pmax) and the TDC firing positions and combustion conditions.

In this paper, an in-process diagnosis method for performance of position control servo system was studied, which was based upon null bias, slew-rate ratio and delay time measurement. Slew-rate ratio and delay time were analyzed by theoretical analysis, computer simulation and experiment. As a result of these analysis, when spool of servovalve was weared, slew-rate ratio was decreased and delay time was increased.

An in-process method of diagnosing the spool wear of hydraulic servovalves was explored. The diagnostic method discussed in this paper is for force-control hydraulic servo systems. The key principle used is that pressure sensitivity of a servovalve drops as the valve spool wears out so that it is possible to determine the spool condition by monitoring pressure sensitivity. A diagnostic algorithm was developed and evaluated through numerical simulation and experiments. Two major steps of diagnosis are the evaluation of null bias of the servovalve and the approximation of pressure sensitivity, both of which could be successfully done during normal operation of a servo system. The difference between a new servovalve and a worn valve could be clearly detected in-process, and the diagnostic test was found to be repeatable.

Damage to the cylinder liner of large ship engines, such as scuffing on the surface, can occur very easily because it is operated in a corrosive environment. This scuffing may be due to oil film destruction and corrosive wear caused by water and sulfur included in the fuel, abrasive impurities, and poor lubricants. Thus, a method for monitoring the condition and diagnosing the failure of the cylinder liner and piston ring is needed. In this study, a reciprocating friction and wear test was carried out with a cast iron specimen, which simulated an engine cylinder in a corrosive atmosphere. The lubricants used were base oil, stirred oil with distilled water, a NaCl solution, and dilute sulfuric acid. The friction coefficient and frequency spectrum were measured using a load cell and acceleration sense in each experimental condition. We then used these results to diagnose the failure of the cylinder liner.

In this paper, the O-Ring Measurement System (O-R MS) has been designed to supplement such subectivity and apply to the diagnosis by constitution. A single chip microprocessor of Intel MCS-51 family has been used to control the O-R MS and process data with real time, and the O-R MS could measure the minute muscular strength, expanded width between fingers, and time of the measurement. Therefore the objective constitutional diagnosis is possible by the O-R MS. As a clinical testing for estimating credibility of O-R MS, the acupuncture points representing the constitution has been stimulated using a semiconductor laser stimulator and measure the muscular strength by the O-R MS. The result of clinical testing has been shown that the constitutional diagnosis with the O-R MS is proved highly precision of 96% and it is expected that the O-R MS can be used practically for the objective constitutional diagnosis.

본 논문은 원자력 발전소의 주요 제어계통 중에서 터빈 조속기 제어계통에 관련한 성능평가를 목적으로 한다. 터빈 조속기 계통은 고압의 유압계통으로 구성되어 있어 구동설비가 복잡하다. 복잡한 기계설비는 운전 중 많은 오동작에 의한 고장을 일으키고, 유지보수에 어려움이 있다. 이러한 복잡한 기계설비에 있어 운전원에 의한 기계성능 평가는 불리한 점이 많다. 예를 들어 서로 다른 시간에서 일어나는 같은 상황에 대해 다른 판단을 내릴 수 있다는 점이다. 터빈 조속기 계통의 기계설비에 있어서 터빈 밸브 유압공급 및 구동장치는 각 터빈벨브 자체에 부착되어 있어 터빈벨브를 동작시킨다. 터빈벨브들은 구동기 유압 서보실린더(Actuator Hydraulic Servo Cylinder)에 의해 열리고 압축된 스프링에 의해 닫힌다. 이러한 시스템을 진단하기 위해서 본 논문에서는 밸브의 내부 압력의 특징정보를 입력으로 하는 퍼지이론을 적용하여 터빈 밸브 구동설비의 성능을 판단하고자 한다. 퍼지이론에 적용하기위해 터빈 조속기 제어계통의 고압 터빈 조절 벨브와 고압 터빈 정지 밸브의 압력변화 데이터를 이용한다. 퍼지이론의 적용과정에서 퍼지 Rule은 실제 운전원이 압력변화 데이터에 대한 판단기준을 근거로 하여 정하기로 한다. 그리고 퍼지이론에 적용한 결과를 분석하고 실제 터빈 조속기 계통의 전문가가 판단 결과와 비교하였다.
