A compact phase controller of pulse tube refrigerator is proposed in this paper. Most pulse tube refrigerators available now consist of a long inertance tube and reservoir as the phase controller. The long inertance tube and reservoir present a challenge for compact packaging in some applications. To overcome this disadvantage, the long inertance tube and reservoir are replaced with the compact phase controller consisted of mass, spring and damper in pulse tube refrigerator. This process is achieved using similarity of mechanical, electrical, and acoustic system and the specific configuration of the compact phase controller is designed. From the simulation code in this paper, the performance of pulse tube refrigerator with the designed compact phase controller is confirmed to be comparable to pulse tube refrigerator with the long inertance tube and reservoir.

Cooling with easy, reliable cryocooler is highly desirable for the commercial and military application The pulse tube refrigerator has no moving parts at the cold end, so that the mechanical vibration and magnetic noise can be reduced to the low level with higher relaibility and longer lifetime than the Stilting cryocooler. The inertance tube improve the performance of pulse tube refrigerator by providing optimal phase shift between pressure and amss flow rate, and it is easiest to implement at large cooling capacity and high operating frequency. In this study, the performance of the inertance pulse tube refrigerator was investigated by analysis. The results show the influence of the diameter and length of the inertance tube on the performance of the refrigerator.

The Experimental results of the in-line type inertance tube pulse tube cryocooler for cooling superconductor RF filter are presented in this paper. The pulse tube refrigerator, which has no moving parts at its cold section, is attractive in obtaining higher reliability, simpler construction, and lower vibration than any other small refrigerators. The purpose of this study is to analyze the characteristics of in-line type inertance tube pulse tube refrigerator (IPTR), and to get main factor to improve the performance of the in-line type IPTR. Firstly, design parameters of the in-line IPTR are discussed by ARCOPTR program, and then to find optimal conditions of in-line type IPTR, cool down characteristics according to the variations of the charging pressure, inertance tube volume, regenerator volume and pulse tube volume are measured by the experiment. The lowest temperature of the cold end was about 50 K. Cooling capacity was the highest in the charging pressure of 32 atm. and 5W at 72K. On the other hand, COP of the in-line type IPTR was the highest in the charging pressure of 21 atm. and 0.018 at 77K.

In this paper the tuned mass-damper-inerter (TMDI) is considered for passive vibration control and energy harvesting in harmonically excited structures. The TMDI couples the classical tuned mass-damper (TMD) with a grounded inerter: a two-terminal linear device resisting the relative acceleration of its terminals by a constant of proportionality termed inertance. In this manner, the TMD is endowed with additional inertia, beyond the one offered by the attached mass, without any substantial increase to the overall weight. Closed-form analytical expressions for optimal TMDI parameters, stiffness and damping, given attached mass and inertance are derived by application of Den Hartog's tuning approach to suppress the response amplitude of force and base-acceleration excited single-degree-of-freedom structures. It is analytically shown that the TMDI is more effective from a same mass/weight TMD to suppress vibrations close to the natural frequency of the uncontrolled structure, while it is more robust to detuning effects. Moreover, it is shown that the mass amplification effect of the inerter achieves significant weight reduction for a target/predefined level of vibration suppression in a performance-based oriented design approach compared to the classical TMD. Lastly, the potential of using the TMDI for energy harvesting is explored by substituting the dissipative damper with an electromagnetic motor and assuming that the inertance can vary through the use of a flywheel-based inerter device. It is analytically shown that by reducing the inertance, treated as a mass/inertia-related design parameter not considered in conventional TMD-based energy harvesters, the available power for electric generation increases for fixed attached mass/weight, electromechanical damping, and stiffness properties.

The flow characteristics of inertance pulse tube cryocooler(IPTC) was investigated with a computational thermal fluid dynamics for the reciprocating flow in IPTC including the piston movement of linear compressor. Two dimensional axisymmetric modeling was applied for the flow in an IPTC with a clearance between the piston and cylinder wall of linear compressor. The pressure, velocity, and temperature distribution were examined for the steady state. These were compared with previous results to confirm the validity in the modeling and computational results. The leakage between piston and cylinder wall affect the cooling capacity seriously. The dependence on mesh numbers were also examined to obtain a proper mesh numbers to improve the accuracy of calculation, which showed significant effect on the results. The user-defined function was used for the process of compression and expansion of piston.

Several tests are performed to evaluate road booming noise. Baseline test delivers the information of road noise characteristics. Coupling effect between structure and acoustics is obtained from the mode shapes and the natural frequencies by the modal test. Equivalent stiffness at joint areas between chassis and car-body system can be determined by the input point inertance test. Noise sensitivity of body mounting point of a chassis part can be obtained from the noise transfer function test with input point inertance test. Operational deflection shape makes us analyze the actual vibration modes of the chassis system under actual leading and find noise sources very easily. Finally, the transfer path analysis is used to Identify noise Paths through the chassis system. The objectives and the procedures of the tests are described in this Paper Also, the guideline for efficient road noise evaluation test can be found.

A free piston and free displacer (FPFD) Stirling cryocooler and inertance pulse tube cryocooler for the cooling infrared detector and cryosensor are currently under development at Korea Institute of Machinery ＆ Materials. The pulse tube cryocooler, which has no moving parts at its cold section, is attractive for obtaining higher reliability, simpler construction and lower vibration than in any other small cryocoolers. In recent years, pulse tube cryocoolers have experienced a rapid development with the aim to eventually replace Stirling and Gifford-McMahon cryocoolers in various applications. In this study, operating characteristics of the conventional linear Stirling cryocooler was investigated by experiment. And, inertance pulse tube cryocooler with the commercial linear compressor(Leybold Polar) was designed, manufactured, and tested by the variations of the operating frequency, charging pressure and input power.

The transient sound radiation from the impact between a steel ball and a thick plate is analyzed theoretically and compared with experiment results. The derivation process itself is difficult to analyze sound radiation characteristics theoretically for a thick plate with some resonances but may be investigated from measured data. During mechanical impacts, arbitrary driving point importance for an elastic system enables to predict by using mechanical importance method. In order to obtain approximate solution for an impact model testing, the surface Helmholtz integral formulation based on the integral expression for pressure in the field in terms of surface pressure and normal velocity is used as a basis. A simple expression is developed for an impulsive response function, which is time dependent velocity potential and pressure for an impact may then be computed by a convolution of exciting force. In estimating of elastic-acoustical correlation problems, mechanical inertance, overall transfer function and radiation resistance obtained by signal processing techniques are used. The usefulness is confirmed by applying these methods prediction of arbitray driving pint inertance, radiated sound pressure and exciting force.

본 연구에서는 기존 폴리머 콘크리트의 진동 감쇠 효과를 향상시키기 위해 압전 재료 중 하나인 PZT 파우더를 첨가하여 티타늄 파우더/폴리머 콘크리트 복합재료를 제작하였다. 티타늄 파우더는 압전 효과를 이용한 진동특성 변화를 극대화하기 위해 일정한 비율로 유지하였고, PZT 파우더를 첨가하지 않은 시편, PZT 파우더를 2.5 wt%, 5 wt% 첨가한 세 가지 종류의 복합재료 시편을 제작하였으며, 모든 시편에 대해 진동 특성 및 압축 물성 분석을 진행하였다. 그 결과, PZT 파우더 첨가 비율이 높아질수록 티타늄 파우더/폴리머 콘크리트에서 발생한 진동이 전달될 때 압전 효과로 인해 공진주파수에서 전달 함수 Inertance 값이 작아지는 것을 확인하였고, 특히 PZT 파우더 5 wt% 첨가 시편의 경우, 공진주파수에서 Inertance 값은 PZT가 첨가되지 않은 시편에 비해 약 19.3% 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 시간에 따른 가속도 변화 폭 역시 PZT 파우더가 첨가됨에 따라 크게 감소하는 것으로 나타나 PZT 첨가에 따른 효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 압축강도 시험을 통해 5 wt%까지의 PZT 첨가에 의한 압축 물성 저하 정도는 미미한 것으로 나타났고, 시편 단면 분석을 통해 파우더가 고르게 분산된 것을 확인하였다.
