The hydraulic cylinder is used for actuating a sluice gate which controls the volume of water in the reservoir. Generally, the one cylinder type is used to operate the sluice gate. In order to reduce the required cylinder force to operate the sluice gate significantly, the sequentially operated-hydraulic cylinders type is designed and the optimal locating points of cylinders are searched using the complex method that is one kind of constrained direct search method.

A circular cylinder is oscillated in th otherwise quiescent viscous fluid. Numerical analysis performed for this problem by using the fourth-order Runge-kutta method for the unsteady Navier-stokes equations. For K(Kelegan-Carpenter's No.)=5, the flow developed symmetrically, while for K=10, it revealed random patterns. The coefficient of the rms force is overestimated by 20-30% compared with the experimental result.

Numerical calculations are carried out for flow past a circular cylinder forced oscillating normal to the free-stream flow at a fixed Reynolds number equal to 185. The cylinder oscillation frequency ranged from 0.8 to 1.2 of the natural vortex-shedding frequency, and the oscillation amplitude extended up to 20% of the cylinder diameter. IBM (Immersed Boundary Method) with direct momentum forcing was adopted to handle both of a stationary and an oscillating cylinder Present results such as time histories of drag and lift coefficients for both stationary and oscillating cases are in good agreement with previous numerical and experimental results. The instantaneous wake patterns of oscillating cylinder with different oscillating frequency ratios showed the synchronized wakes pattern in the lock-in region and vortex switching phenomenon at higher frequency ratio than the critical frequency ratio.

Oil-Hydraulic pump consisting of swing twin-cylinder becomes to be used as a next generation of low vacuum pump. However, there is no enough flow-analysis for design improvement. It is essential to develope a numerical method for flow-analysis before manufacturing, in economic sense. Using a commercial code (Fluent), developed for flow-analysis, useful informations for design of pump were provided. Two-dimensional analysis has been performed to investigate the flow parameters such as pressure and velocity distributions between the swing twin-cylinder and the fixed cylinder. This numerical method will be used to design a better performance of pump consisting of swing twin-cylinder.

The in-cylinder flow field of gasoline engine comprises unsteady compressible turbulent flows caused by the intake port, combustion chamber geometry and the change of the spatial shape. Thus the quantitative analysis of the in-cylinder bulk flow plays an important role in the improvement of engine performances and the reduction of exhaust emission. The influences of tumble intensifying valve (TIV) and swirl intensifying valve (SIV), and various intake-flow conditions are compared with the tumble ratio obtained by the measured results of the in-cylinder gas flow. In order to obtain the quantitative analysis of the in-cylinder gas flows of gasoline engine this investigation applied the particle tracking method to the analysis of gas flow characteristics. Various intake conditions such as tumble and swirl intensifying valve, the deactivated condition of one valve among two intake valves, and the other factors of gas flow are considered.

We developed a part of storke sensing cylinder using magnetic sensor and estimated is performance. In this paper, for the performance estimation of stroke sensing cylinder. We consist of hydrallic system using solenoid valve with ON/OFF motion. In order to the control of solenoid valve for the position control of cylinder rod, PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) method which modulates time pulse width in proportion to error was used. A performance of cylinder rod with magnetic scales was evaluated by its hydraulic system.

In this paper, the hydraulic oil pressure distributions are measured in the clearance gap between a stationary piston and moving cylinder apparatus. The results showed that the hydrodynamic pressure distributions are highly affected by the speed of cylinder and further experimental and analytical studies are required to obtain more accurate results. Therefore present experimental method can be used to enhance the performance of various hydraulic components adopting the piston-cylinder mechanism.

To develop an analytic method of combustion characteristics in a small sized and single cylinder type diesel engine for a power tiller, 1) the theoritical analysis of combustion gas in engine cylinder was performed based on thermoscience and 2) the computer program which could be used to calculate those values of the apparent burning rate, the heat loss, the gas temperature and the fuel-air equivalence ratio with the experimental cylinder pressure data, was developed. This method would provide the practical and quantative data for the diesel combustion process. Through the use of this method, following details would be obtained: 1) the application in the modeling of combustion process without detail knowledeg of combustion process, 2) the basis for the complete modeling of diesel engine, and 3) the basic information for the design of combustion chamber by the prediction of engine performance.

In this study, the stresses and electric potential redistributions of a cylinder made from functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM) are investigated. All the mechanical, thermal and piezoelectric properties are modeled as power-law distribution of volume fraction. Using the coupled electro-thermo-mechanical relations, strain-displacement relations, Maxwell and equilibrium equations are obtained including the time dependent creep strains. Creep strains are time, temperature and stress dependent, the closed form solution cannot be found for this constitutive differential equation. A semi-analytical method in conjunction with the Mendelson method of successive approximation is therefore proposed for this analysis. Similar to the radial stress histories, electric potentials increase with time, because the latter is induced by the former during creep deformation of the cylinder, justifying industrial application of such a material as efficient actuators and sensors.

The purpose of this paper is to provide the method of conventional stress analysis for a pressurized hydraulic cylinder with internal thread undercut. In the case of hydraulic cylinder with thread undercut, several loads and stresses occur during operating. So, the thread undercut can be most critical section has to be considered in detail for strength check. In this paper, the conventional stress analysis method at internal thread undercut of hydraulic cylinder based on Kowalski's formula is introduced. The method is verified by comparing to FEM analysis results using ANSYS.
