유압베인펌프는 토출유량이 많고 소형으로 동력밀도는 높으나 토출압력면에스는 피스톤식 펌프에 뒤지기 때문에 발생압력의 고압화에 대한 연구가 계속되어 왔다. 유압장치의 경제적인 압력으로서 $300kgf/cm^2$가 제시되어 있는 가운데, 유압베인펌프의 고압화의 연구가 진행중에 있는 점, 또한 최근들어 에너지 절약의 일환으로 펌프의 수명연장 문제가 거론되어 지고 있는 점, 물에 타기 어려운 난연성유압 작동유를 사용할 경우 마찰증대 및 마모성능이 저하하는 점 등의 이유에서 유압베인 펌프의 마찰, 윤활문제가 중요시 되어지고 있다. 특히 펌프의 체적효율을 높이는 것과 마찰, 마모를 저하시키는 것과는 서로 상반된 관계에 놓여있기 때문에 문제의 해결에 어려움을 갖고 있다. 이와같은 모순을 해결하기 위해서는 베인과 캠링사이의 슬라이딩부분의 윤활상태를 파악하지 않으면 안된다. 그러나 베인의 선단부에는 10-20ms의 짧은 시간동안에 수백기압의 압력이 변화하기 때문에 지금까지 확실한 작용력의 파악이 어려워 이 분야의 윤활상태 파악에 관한 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않고 있다. 베인과 캠링간의 윤활상태를 윤활공학적 관점에서 보면 변동하중 상태에서의 슬라이딩 탄성유체윤활상태 또는 혼합윤활상태에 있는 것으로 판단되어지는데, 이와같은 여러가지 어려운 조건 때문에 윤활상태를 파악하는데, 어려운점이 뒤따르게 된다. 위와 같은 배경에 착안하여 본 연구에서는 유압베인펌프를 모델화하여 변동하중상태에서 실험이 가능한 장치를 제작, 사용하여 베인 선단 슬라이딩부분의 윤활상태를 파악하였다.

This paper presents thermodynamic performance analysis of organic Rankine cycle (ORC) using low temperature heat source in the form of sensible energy and using liquefied natural gas (LNG) as heat sink to recover the cryogenic energy of LNG. LNG is able to condense the working fluid at a very low condensing temperature in a heat exchanger, which leads to an increased power output. Based on the mathematical model, a parametric analysis is conducted to examine the effects of eight different working fluids, the turbine inlet pressure and the condensation temperature on the system performance. The results indicate that the thermodynamic performance of ORC such as net work production or thermal efficiency can be significantly improved by the LNG cold energy.

This paper is to research the heat transfer characteristic in copper-water variable conductance heat pipes(VCHP) with a non-condensable gas and gas reservoir. The heat transfer characteristics in the VCHP have not yet been studied much researches. VCHP are used in many applications. These applications range from thermal control of components and systems on satellites, to precise temperature calibration duties, conventional electronics temperature control and thermal diodes. The practical use of VCHP is a simple way to control the temperature of satellites. As the quantity of NCG was increased, there was an increase in the saturation vapor temperatures. As the input heat has loaded from 90 W to 110 W, the difference of the evaporator surface is lower than $10^{\circ}C$.

This paper presents experiments on the evaluation of characteristics of ER fluids used for vibration control of application in intelligence type process control systems. Dynamic characteristics of the actuator(beam) embedded with the ER fluid can be controlled by changing the strength of the electric field applied on the ER fluids, thus provides a mean to avoid the resonance. In case electric field is supplied to the smart structure with ER fluids, vibration energy is dissipated more than the beam without electric field, because particles in ER fluid form a chain structure in the presence of electric field. The damping and stiffness of the beam with ER fluid are increased when the applied electric field increases. The characteristics of damping and stiffness of the ER fluid with various electric field strength were investigated by conducting a vibration test of the beam with ER fluid. If it applies characteristics of the ER fluids, it will be able to apply in the PLC control system for the vibration which occurs from process system.

Since the thermal performance of cycles for use of low-temperature source is low if a pure working fluid is used, the cycles using ammonia-water binary mixture as a working fluid has attracted much attention over past two decades. Recently, several commercial power plants using Kalina cycles have been built and being operated successfully. In this work thermodynamic performance of Kalina cycles using ammonia-water mixture as a working fluid is investigated for the purpose of extracting maximum power from low-temperature energy source. Special attention is paid to the effect of system parameters such as concentration of ammonia and turbine inlet pressure on the characteristics of the system. Results show that the system performance is influenced sensitively by the ammonia concentration, and the role of the performance of heat exchangers is crucial.

Hydrodynamic performance test was conducted for a fuel pump of a liquid rocket engine turbopump. The pump driven by an electric motor was tested using water. It is experimentally shown that the inducer had very small effect on the pump's head and efficiency but great effect on the pump's cavitation performance. Additionally, inducer test was carried out to investigate the effect of the inducer on the pump in detail, and it was found that the pump reached a critical cavitation number when the inducer head dropped by 55%.

Propellant filling and holding test was carried out using liquid oxygen as a working fluid. The feeding line system has a filter at propellant tank outlet. Vaporization of liquid oxygen during holding after completion of filling and effect of vaporization to recirculation performance in this system was observed. Filling rate and pressure of tank ullage had the effect on state of liquid oxygen in feeding line. There was no geysering in feeding line during holding because of the position of filter.

Many countries are paying efforts to the research and development of water-breathing ramjet propulsion for submersible vehicle with the super-cavitation which makes traveling at high speed in underwater possible. In this study, a conceptual design of an underwater vehicle with water-breathing ramjet was carried out. Mission profiles and operating conditions are determined by examining the operation environment. Drag is estimated based on the theories of super-cavitation and fluid mechanics. The sizing and performance analysis of the components were performed using thrust required, thrust and specific impulse of designed engine were verified.
