Pneumatic control systems have the potential to provide high output power to weight and size ratios at a relatively low cost. However, they are mainly employed in open-loop control applications where positioning repeatability is not of great importance. This paper presents precision positioning control of pneumatic servo cylinder with on-off valve, Pneumatic low-friction cylinder with servo valve and DC servo motor under parameter variations. Basically positioning control uses PID controller, where needs a linearized model. A neural network is added to a PID controller to compensator nonlinearity of the system and an influence of friction force is consider as disturbance. The performances of the proposed algorithms were compared by experiments with them of PID controller. From those experiments is was shown that the proposed algorithms are more efficient about settling time, steady 7tate error and overshoot than PID control algorithm.

Many researchers have developed the measurement technique of in-cylinder flow. Recently, there are lots of studies on steady flow with different SCV geometries. In this study the flow characteristics of four-valve cylinder head were examined in a steady test rig for different SCV open ratios. Each swirl ratio of several SCV angle was quantified by swirl impulse meter and 2D-LDV measurement. The results showed that the swirl ratio was controlled between 2.3 and 3.8 based on SCV angles. The velocity distributions of in-cylinder flow field were measured by 2-D LDV test and visualized swirl and tumble flow pattern at different positions. In this engine , we found out that the swirl was dominant flow.

This paper is concerned with the accurate position control of a rodless pneumatic cylinder using On/Off solenoid valve. A novel Intelligent Modified Pulse Width Modulation(MPWM) is newly proposed. The control performance of this pneumatic cylinder depends on the external loads. To overcome this problem , switching of control parameter using artificial neural network is newly proposed, which estimates external loads on rodless pneumatic cylinder using this training neural network. As an underlying controller, a state feedback controller using position, velocity and acceleration is applied in the switching control the system. The effectiveness of the proposed control algorithms are demonstrated...on/off solenoid valve, load estimation, MPWM, Artificial neural network.

This paper investigated the behaviors of combustion characteristics at part load condition with various intake charge motions induced by the port masking schemes in the CVVT (Continuously Variable valve Timing) engine. Time resolved in-cylinder and exhaust emissions were measured by the fast response HC and NOx analyzers to examine their formation mechanisms and behavior characteristics. As a result, in-cylinder HC decreased with the advanced intake valve timings but HC at the exhaust port increased due to the worse combustion stabilities. However HC reduction could be achieved by the application of the port maskings with a enhancement of the engine stability. NOx also decreased with early intake timings by internal EGR but increased with the charge motion controls which enhance the combustion behavior.

From the perspective of dental chair manufacturers, it is important to of localizing hydraulic system in order to secure market competitiveness. This study aims to develop the analysis model of a dental chair which overseas companies secure core technologies. The study follows the steps below. First, the component parts of the solenoid valve unit of a foreign leading company are analyzed and implemented in virtual environment. Second, dynamic behavior scenario is established based on solenoid valve signal chart provided by a foreign leading company. The analysis model is verified and its performance is analyzed using dynamic behavior according to each scenario. Third, a simulation is carried out to determine whether the cylinder velocity of designed hydraulic system surpasses 1cm/s as required by the design.

An experimental study has been conducted for the three-dimensional in-cylinder swirl flow under steady conditions. Velocity fields are measured by using an LDV at various valve lifts. Effects of geometry of inlet ports on swirl flows are investigated for standard and helical ports. Swirl distributions evaluated from velocity measurements are compared with those obtained from an impulse torque swirl meter. Results show that the helical port generates more intensive swirl than the standard one but it causes red- uction in air flow coefficient. At the lower valve lift, no significant difference is observ- ed in non-dimensional swirl values between two ports because of limited pre-swirl effect, while it becomes significant as the valve lift increases.

In this paper, a zero-dimensional two zone model is developed to investigate the effects of variable valve timing on combustion process in SI engine. The simulation results show that the predicted data has good agreement with experimental ones. The useful information of combustion process such like residual gas fraction cylinder pressure, cylinder temperature and NO concentration can be obtained and the effects of engine variables on combustion processes and performances can be evaluated.

This paper presents design.dynamic modeling and control issues of a novel type of an ER valve-cylinder system incorporating with an electro-rheological(ER) fluid. The yield stress of the ER fluid to be employed to the proposed system is evaluated as a function of applied electric fields. The design and manufacturing process of the ER valve which features fast system response and simple mechanism are undertaken on the basis of model parameters. The governing equation for the hydraulic and pneumatic model is constructed by incorporation with the field-dependent Bingham behavior of the ER fluid. An effective neuro controller is proposed to realize an accurate position control.

Initial flame development and propagation were visualized under the new ignition system developed to estimate the effects of ignition characteristics on the engine performance in a port injection SI engine. Effects of intake air flow characteristics were also investigated by three different kinds of the swirl control valve. Experiments were performed in an optical single cylinder engine modified form a commercial engine. Flame images were captured through the quartz window mounted in the piston by the high speed video camera and analyzed to compare initial flame development. Results show that IMEP tends to rise slightly as the ignition duration gets longer. The direction of flame propagation is decisively governed by the in-cylinder flow motion. Every flame grows toward the exhaust valve forming a kind of turbulent flame. Initial flame propaagation characteristics are very similar to ones analyzed form pressure data.
