본 논문에서는 모델예측제어를 기반으로 스위치드 릴럭턴스 전동기의 전류제어기 속응성 개선을 위한 방법을 제안한다. 스위치드 릴럭턴스 전동기는 광범위한 속도 영역에서 운전이 가능하고 돌극형 구조로써 견고하고 강인한 구조를 갖는다. 그러나 회전자 위치에 따라 인덕턴스가 변하기 때문에 고정 이득을 가지는 비례적분 전류제어기는 과도상태 응답특성이 저하되는 단점이 있다. 모델예측제어 기법을 통해 과도상태 응답특성을 개선한다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 제안하는 제어기법의 타당성을 검증한다.

원자력발전소에서 발생되는 방사성폐기물들은 폐기물형태 및 방사능 농도가 다양하며 영구처분장으로 이송전까지는 발전소내의 임시 저장고에 안전하게 보관, 관리하고 있다. 생성된 폐기물드럼내에는 감마방출핵종을 비롯하여 알파 및 베타방출 핵종들이 균질 또는 비균질하게 존재하고 있으며 방사능의 세기나 폐기물의 특성에 따라 안정화시키거나 압축처리하여 드럼에 담겨져 있기 때문에 일반적인 파괴분석에 의한 화학분석법으로는 작업자의 피폭, 시료의 대표성 선정 및 장시간의 화학처리 시간소요 등으로 핵종분석이 곤란하다. 따라서 본 논문은 일반적으로 감마핵종분석시 흔히 사용하고 있는 고순도게르마늄(HPGe) 검출기를 이용하여 드럼의 감마핵종농도를 분석하는 방법과 장치의 개발에 대해 언급하였으며 알파나 베타핵종과 같이 직접 분석이 곤란한 핵종들은 각 폐기물드럼내에 존재하는 Co-60이나 Cs-137과의 상관관계를 미리 예측한 척도인자 (scaling factor)를 이용하여 간접적으로 구하는 방법을 사용하고 있으나 본 논문에서는 드럼으로부터 감마핵종만을 분석하는 방법에 대해서만 언급하였다. 또한 핵종분석시스템의 최적 운전조건을 도출하기 위해 드럼회전테이블의 속도결정 및 모의드럼을 이용한 방사능측정 등을 통해 핵종 농도 분석시의 오차를 30% 이내로 유지할 수 있었다.

The electromechanical energy conversion conditioning and processing implementation in USM direct motion control system is generally divided into two power stages: the two-phase high-frequency ac power inversion stage for driving piezoelectric ceramic PZT transducer array off the USM stator and the mechanical thrust power conversion stage based on the frictional force between the piezo electric stator array and the rotary slider of the USM. However, the dynamic and steady-state mathematical modeling of the USM is extremely default from a theoretical point of view because it contains many complicated an nonlinear characteristics dependant on operation temperature. In +2$0^{\circ}C$~3$0^{\circ}C$, the operating characteristics of the USM has represented normal condition. But the other temperature, it has abnormal condition so that driving frequency, current and motor speed will be down. The recent USM has controller without temperature compensation. This study represents the fuzzy controller for speed compensation according to operating temperature by driving frequency.

Improvement of the thermal efficiency in operation and maintenance of low- and medium-speed engines is a kind of never-ending requirement in the maritime power plant business. For the purpose of improving engine management efficiency, a principal factor that represents the fitness of the engine should be identified. Gas pressure, gas temperature, and vibration have all been used as this factor. However, they have limitations in terms of response speed and diagnosis accuracy. The EFR (engine fitness ratio) is suggested as a new diagnostic factor in this paper. The EFR is defined as the ratio of particular frequencies in the frequency domain and represents the fitness of an engine. It is calculated from the fluctuation pattern of the crankshaft angular speed. The EFR was verified using an experimental method for a low-speed engine and an analytic method for a medium-speed engine.

This paper proposes a novel sensorless control scheme for a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) by using a parallel reduced-order Extended Kalman Filter. The proposed scheme can obtain rotor position and speed by back-EKF that is estimated by reduced-order ETD and save computation time great)y due to using a parallel structure that works by turns every sampling time. Therefore, proposed scheme has merits of conventional EKF, and problems of parameter sensitivity are partially overcome. And proposed scheme can safely estimate rotor speed and position by using new algorithms according to driving regions. Experimental results show the validity of the proposed estimation technique, and to verify the merit of the proposed scheme, a comparison of a new reduced-order EKF algorithm with a conventional EKF algorithm has been also made in terms of computation time.

In this paper, the instantaneous flux Is applied to control the position of the SRG (Switched Reluctance Generator) without position sensor. The position information of the rotor is required in the drive of SRG. These data are generally obtained by a shaft encoder or resolver. In some cases, the EMI(Electro Magnetic Interference), vibration, thermal, and humidity environments may cause the difficulties in maintaining the satisfactory performance for the position detection. Therefore, the elimination of the position and speed sensor is needed. In this paper, a new method for the position estimation of the SRG is proposed. The estimation of the flux is calculated by using the measured voltage and current. The rotor position gets from the flux profile. The output voltage is also controlled constantly by PR control algorithm. These methods are verified by computer simulations md experiments using DSP. Experimental results certificate that the proposed method is able to control the SRG stable, and keep the output voltage constant in spite of changing of the load.

The variation of the crankshaft speed in a multi-cylinder engine is determined by the resultant gas pressure torque and the torsional deformation of the crankshaft. Under steady state operation, the crankshaft speed has a quasi-periodic variation. For the diagnosis the engine instantaneous speed versus crankshaft angle is utilized. This paper describes a simple measurement method of the engine instantaneous speed versus crankshaft angle using the teeth on the flywheel of the crankshaft. Two non-contacting magnetic pickup combinations detect the crank angle and TDC position for the data acquisition. The results from experiments on a 6 cylinder marine diesel engine demonstrate that the crankshaft speed variation are detected with good resolution. And the crankshaft speed variation is investigated according to the operation conditions. Also, it is confirmed that the engine output measured by EMS can be evaluated larger than the actual value due to TDC position error caused by instantaneous speed variation.

To evaluate performance of the experimental pick-up type pulse crop harvester for harvesting sprout bean, its pick-up and discharging grain loss ratios, grain quality such as whole grain ratio, damaged grain ratio, unthreshed grain, and foreign material ratio in grain tank, germination rate of threshed grain, and theoretical field capacity of the harvester were analyzed according to engine speeds of 2000, 2400 and 2800 rpm and harvesting speeds of 0.6, 1.0 and 1.4 m/s. It is considered that the harvester showed optimum performance at the engine speed of 2800 rpm and the harvesting speed of 1.0 m/s, and then average pick-up grain loss ratio of 2.7%, discharging grain loss ratio of 0.5%, whole grain ratio of 99.3%, damaged grain ratio of 0.2%, unthreshed grain ratio of 0.0%, foreign material ratio of 0.2%, and germination rate at 8 days after seeding of 72.8% were shown. It is considered that the harvester has lower grain loss and higher grain quality than the imported bean combines. And also as it could harvest 3 rows of cut and dried sprout bean crop width of which was about 2 m, its effective field capacity was estimated for about 50 a/h.

Recently, there have been many studies pertaining to reducing energy consumption on ships. As part of those studies, the energy consumption of ships can be reduced by understanding and controlling the varying loads, excluding fixed loads. In existing ships, engine room fans are usually operated based on the actual experience of the crew without any special guidelines. To realize energy reduction, we investigate the characteristics of engine-room fans, and we propose an energy-management system called the engine room fan control system (ERFCS) and the ERFCS algorithm. The ERFCS controls the fan speed depending on the temperature and pressure, where one to four fans are operated depending on changes in the load. In addition, the minimum rotation speed of the engine-room fan was limited to 50% to prevent the surging phenomenon, which is due to fan damage or low pressure resulting from mechanical friction or heating at low fan speeds. We develop a fan control system simulation model using LabVIEW that is based on the proposed algorithm and ISO 8861. Finally, we perform simulations to confirm that operation of the proposed fan control system is possible using only 46.4% of the power required by the existing method.
