Feed-water valves (FWVs) are used to regulate the flow rate of water entering steam generators, which are very important devices in nuclear power plants. Due to the working environment of relatively high pressure and temperature, there is strength failure problem of valve body in some cases. Based on the thermo-fluid-solid coupling model, the valve body stress of the feed-water valve in the opening process is investigated. The flow field characteristics inside the valve and temperature change of the valve body with time are studied. The stress analysis of the valve body is carried out considering mechanical stress and thermal stress comprehensively. The results show that the area with relatively high-velocity area moves gradually from the bottom of the cross section to the top of the cross section with the increase of the opening degree. The whole valve body reaches the same temperature of 250 ℃ at the time of 1894 s. The maximum stress of the valve body meets the design requirements by stress assessment. This work can be referred for the design of FWVs and other similar valves.

Effects of the dielectric constant and thickness of a feed substrate on the bandwidth and radiation characteristics of an aperture coupled microstrip patch antenna (ACMPA) are investigated. The optimized return loss bandwidth of an ACMPA increases without the degradation of radiation characteristics as the feed substrate dielectric constant increases for the same feed substrate thickness. The optimized return loss bandwidth of an ACMPA with the dielectric constant of a feed substrate of 10, which is compatible with the high dielectric constant monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) materials, increases without the degradation of radiation characteristics as the thickness of a feed substrate decreases. The ACMPA configuration is suitable for integration with MMICs.

The conventional motor in a crane has a tan generator to feed back the number of turns. The tan generator is contacted to a motor shaft through the coupling. Don has been often generated because the coupling has worn out while the motor is turning. In this paper, we design the speed-measurement device of motor in a un. The device is composed of PIC16F84 controller, photo-sensor, and analog-to digital converter. The photo sensor measures the turn of a motor without contact so the device decreases the probability of errors. And The device can acknowledge the turn direction of the motor with a gin81e senor and two color reflectors.

This paper proposes a controller design analysis for three-axis CNC systems considering both contouring and tracking performance. The proposed analysis inclusively combines axial controllers for each individual feed drive system together with cross-coupling controller at the beginning design stage as an integrated manner. These two controllers used to be separately designed and analyzed since they have different control objectives. The proposed scheme includes a stability analysis for the overall control system and a performance analysis in terms of contouring and tracking accuracy. Computer simulation is performed and the results show the validity of the proposed methodology. Further, the results can be used as a basic guideline in systematic and comprehensive controller design for multi-axis CNC systems.

In this letter, a simple method for reducing the size of a dual-band planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) is described. This method is based on a coupling capacitor connected in parallel to the PIFA feed conductor. The proposed antenna occupies a small ground clearance of $10mm{\times}5mm$ and is able to provide -10-dB impedance bandwidths of 120 MHz and 760 MHz for 2.45-GHz and 5.5-GHz wireless local area network applications, respectively. The measured antenna efficiencies are 71.8% and 73.6%, averaged over the 2.45-GHz and 5.5-GHz frequency bands, respectively.

The surface of tube-type alumina substrate was modified with a silane coupling agent in order to modify the membrane surface with hydrophobicity. Contact angle of water drops on modified membrane was greater than $90^{\circ}$. The modified membrane was tested in pervaporation and vapor permeation for the recovery of menthol from dilute menthol/water mixture. With increasing menthol concentration in the feed at $45^{\circ}C$, permeation rate of menthol in pervaporation and vapor permeation increased from $0.039(g/m^2hr)$ to $0144(g/m^2hr)$ and from. $0.077(g/m^2hr)$ to $0.297(g/m^2hr)$ respectively. When feed concentration is 0.005(g/L) at $45^{\circ}C$, separation factor for menthol in pervaporation and vapor permeation is 20,7 and 40.5 respectively.

A brushless linear motor is suitable for a high-accuracy servo mechanism. It is also suitable for operation with higher speed and precision. Since it does not involve some sort of mechanical coupling, linear driving force can be applied directly. Basic models including magetomotive force and electromotive forces are introduced and simplified. Both conventional PID and fuzzy controllers are implemented and performance results using those controllers are compared. Along with better simulated performance observed using fuzzy controller, further fabrication is to be included with various empirical results. Several system operational characteristics have been observed. Typical nonlinearities as friction, cogging and torque or thrust ripple that might deteriorate system performance would be tackled using presumably effective method such as neural network based learning controller.

We present simulation results for a method designed to extract key parameter values of DFB-type LDs based on ASE spectrum measurements. Comparisons were made between the given (actual) and the extracted (estimated) parameters, as well as the associated spectra, fur a variety of DFB-type LDs, and the two sets of results were found to be in excellent agreement.
