The ship's propulsion efficiency depends upon a combibation of engine and propeller. The propeller has better efficiency as the engine has lower rotational speed. This situation led the engine manufacures to design the engine that has lower speed, longer stroke and a small number of cylinders. With this new trends the conventional mechanical-hydrualic governors for engine speed control have been replaced by digital speed controllers which adopted the PID control or the optimal control algorithm. But these control algorithms have not enough robustness to suppress the variations of the delay-time and the parameter perturbation especially in low speed engine. In this study we consider the perturbations of the engine parameters as the modeling uncetainties and design a robust speed controller for marine medium speed diesel engine by means of $ extit{H}_{infty}$control theory having the central solution. By comparing the results of the robust speed controller with those of mechanical governor and PID controller, the validity of the robust speed controller under parameter variations is confirmed. The speed control of the experimental diesel engine of carried out using actuator which is composed of PWM signal generator and D.C servo motor.

Ejectors, having no moving, lubricating and leaking parats, are widely used as marine pumps because of its high working confidence. For instance, uses in ships are stripping in crude oil tank, bilge discharge in engine room, ballast water pumping on are carrier, and brine discharge from fresh water generator. And it is also used as cooling water recirculating pump in boiling water type nuclear reactor and deep-well pump. It is not easy to determine the optimal dimension for designing each ejector agreed with its suggested performance condition, because complicated calculations must be repeated to obtain the maximum efficiency affected by flowrate ratio, head ratio, area ratio and so on. Therefore, it is considered that the CAD (Computer-Aided Design) for ejector is a powerful method for design according to the individual design condition. In this paper, a computer program for water ejector design is developed based on the previous paper on theoretical analysis and experimental results for water ejector. And from the theoretical approach, an equation for the working limit and an equation for determing the shape of throat are obtained. The validity of the present computer program is sufficiently confirmed through the comparison of the computed results with the main dimension of the previous manufactured water ejector. This program will be easily developed as the CAD for various kinds of ejectors, including steam ejector.

This paper reports the performance of a 150W PV-wave hybrid system with battery storage in buoy. This system was originally designed to meet a new hybrid ower system for buoy in Korea. In the case or lighted buoys and lighthouses, a light failure alarm system of wireless radio is attached so that light failures are immediately notified to the office. At lighthouse offshore fixed lights and light buoys where commercial electricity is not available, the power source depends on solar system and batteries. This power system has a various problems. Therefore energy derived from the sunshine, wind and waves has been used as the energy source lot aids to navigation. Recently a hybrid system of combining the solar, wind and the wave generator is a favorable system lot the ocean facilities like lighthouse and buoy. The hybrid system in this paper is intended for variable DC load like light, communication system in the buoy and includes a PV-wane generation system and battery. This is composed a high efficiency charging algorithm, switching converter and controller. This paper includes discussion on system reliability, power quality, and effects of hybrid system in the buoy. Simulation and experimental results show excellent performance.

A study on the improvement for cycle efficiency of closed-type ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) was studied to obtain the basic data for the optimal design of cycle. For that, OTEC cycle with a generator, a reheater and a multi-turbine was simulated and analyzed. The basic thermodynamic model for OTEC is Rankine cycle and the surface seawater of $26^{\circ}C$ and deep seawater of $5^{\circ}C$ were used for the heat source of evaporator and condenser, respectively. Ammonia is used as the working fluid. The cycle efficiency increased when generator is added with 0.9 generator effectiveness. When the reheater and multi-turbine are applied in the basic cycle, the cycle efficiency showed 3.14% and the capacity of heat exchanger decreased for same total cycle power. For the OTEC cycle with the generator, the reheater and the multi-turbine showed the highest cycle efficiency and increased the efficiency by more than 6.5% comparing with the basic OTEC cycle.

The effect of swirl on the flow characteristics in a sudden expansion tube was examined experimentally by using 3D PIV(particle image velocimetry) to capture the velocity profiles. The swirling flow of water through a sudden 1:2 axisymmetric expansion has previously been studied experimentally within a horizontal round tube. A kind of tangential slot is used as a swirl generator for swirling flow and a honey comb is used for without swirl flow. The work with the swirl and without swirl results are compared to each other at the same Reynolds number. Liquid crystal was employed to measure temperature profiles and heating coil used for heat transfer with and without swirl flow. And then the Nusselt number ratoes(Nu/Nudb) are calculated along the test section.

Heat transfer characteristics of a pair of longitudinal vortices using a transient liquid crystal technique are studied experimentally. In order to control the strength of longitudinal vortices, angle of attack of the vortex generators is $20^{\circ}$and the length of space from the centerline the vortex generations is 25mm apart. The heat transfer measurements using a transfer coefficients. The following conclusions are obtained from the present experiment. When any vortex generators are not set up in wind tunnel test, heat transfer rate is low respectively. However, with the vortex generators of rectangular winglet, the heat transfer on the local surface can be enhanced.

In general many engineers can diagnose the fault condition using the abnormal ones among data monitored from a diesel engine, but they don't need the system modelling or identification for the work. They check the abnormal data and the relationship and then catch the fault condition of the engine. This paper proposes the construction of a fault diagnosis engine through malfunction data gained from the data fault detection system of neural networks for diesel generator engine, and the rule inference method to induce the rule for fuzzy inference from the malfunction data of diesel engine like a site engineer with a fuzzy system. The proposed fault diagnosis system is constructed in the sense of the Malfunction Diagnosis Engine(MDE) and Hierarchy of Malfunction Hypotheses(HMH). The system is concerned with the rule reduction method of knowledge base for related data among the various interactive data.
