This paper deals with the design and aerodynamic analysis of a so-called 'ring-type' impulse turbine for wave energy conversion. Numerical analysis was performed using the CFD cock, FLUENT. The main idea of the proposed turbine rotor was to minimize the adverse effect of tip clearance of the turbine blade; the design was borrowed from a ducted propeller with connected ring tip for special purpose marine vehicles. Results show that the efficiency increases up to $10\%$, depending on flaw coefficient, with the higher flaw coefficient yielding better efficiency. Decrease of input coefficient CA was the main reason for higher efficiency. Performance of ring-type rotor at various design parameters, as well as flaw conditions, was investigated, and the advantages and the disadvantages of the present impulse turbine were also discussed.

In order to optimize the performance of a Wells turbine with fixed guide vanes, the designs of an end plate and a ring on the tip of the turbine rotor are proposed as penetrating blade tip treatments. In this study, numerical investigations are made using computational fluid dynamics (CFD)-based ANSYS Fluent software, and validated by corresponding experimental data. The flow fields are analyzed and non-dimensional coefficients $C_A$, $C_T$ and ${\eta}$ are calculated under steady-state conditions. Numerical results show that the stalling phenomenon on a ring-type Wells turbine occurs at a flow coefficient of ${\phi}=0.36$, and its peak efficiency can reach 0.54, which is 16% higher than that of an unmodified turbine and 9% higher than in the case of an endplate-type turbine. In addition, quasi-steady analysis is used to calculate the mean efficiency and output work of a wave cycle under sinusoidal flow conditions. As a result, it has been found that the ring-type turbine is superior to other types of Wells turbines.

Mr. Hur has developed the 7500KW permanent magnet synchronous generator. The 7500KW generator has dual blade system with vertical axis type generation module. The 7500KW generator will generating that it is too expensive and construction payment. The advantages of dual blade system are cheap in generation with better efficiency, and safety compact structure. But also this system has the expensive slide ring for to distribute electrical power.

This paper presents the FEM analysis on the contact behavior characteristics of mechanical face seals in a small hydro-power turbine. Especially, the axial displacement and contact normal stress between a seal ring and a seal seat of a primary sealing unit have been analyzed as functions of rotating speed of a hydro-turbine, sealing gap, water and cooling fluid temperature. Those are strongly related to a leakage of water and wear between a seal ring and a seal seat. The FEM computed results present that the rotating speed of a hydro-turbine may be kept less than 800 rpm, and the sealing gap in a primary sealing unit is restricted $0.5\~5$. The coolant temperature in which is most influential parameter to the contact behaviors of a sealing unit may be kept less than $15^{\circ}C$ for a safe operation of a sealing unit without a leakage and wear.

In this paper, the friction and wear characteristics of contact type sealing unit far a water turbine have been presented. The sealing unit for a small hydropower generation is to stop a leakage of circulating water from an outside of an impeller to an inside of a rolling bearing. The friction heating between a seal ring and a seal seat may radically increase a surface temperature in which increase a power loss and wear on the rubbing surface. The surface wear strongly affect to the seal life of a mechanical face seal. In this study, the hardness of a stainless steel in which is a heat-treated is 892.8 in Victors hardness and the hardness of silicone carbide of SiC is 714.1 in Victors hardness. The surface hardness of a heat-treated stainless steel is 25% high compared with that of a ceramic material of SiC. The contact modes of rubbing surfaces are a dry friction, a water film friction and a mixed friction that is contaminated by a dust, silt, and moistures, etc. These two factors of a contact rubbing modes and a material property are very important parameters on the tribological performance such as a friction and wear between a seal ring and a seal seat in primary sealing unit. The experimental result shows that the surface hardness of a seal material is very important on the friction coefficient and a wear volume. Thus, the results recommend higher hardness of a seal material, which may reduce a friction loss and increase a wear life of primary seal components.

본 논문에서는 풍력터빈과 하부구조물을 연결하는 L형 플랜지 볼트 접합부의 거동 특성에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. L형 플랜지 볼트 접합부는 링(Ring) 형태의 L형 단면 플랜지가 볼트에 의해 상하 체결되는 방식으로서 국내 풍력터빈에서 주로 적용되고 있는 연결방식이다. 특히 풍력타워 구조물은 이들 연결부의 손상이 전체 구조시스템의 붕괴로 이어질 수 있으므로 중요한 구조 요소 중 하나이다. 따라서 L형 플랜지 볼트 접합부에 대한 정확한 거동 특성의 이해가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 FE 해석을 통하여 L형 플랜지에 작용하는 외력과 볼트장력의 관계, 그리고 L형 플랜지의 응력분포 변화를 외력 작용 단계별로 분석하였다. 여기서 FE 해석모델은 실제 링 형태의 L형 플랜지를 단일볼트의 L형 플랜지로 이상화하였다. 또한 볼트장력과 작용외력의 관계를 이론적으로 제안한 Petersen, Schmidt와 Neuper 그리고 VDI 2230의 볼트-외력 곡선모델에서 언급되는 접합부의 거동 불연속점과 FE 해석결과를 비교함으로써 FE 해석조건의 적절성을 검증하고, 각 볼트-외력 곡선모델의 특징과 L형 플랜지 볼트 접합부 거동 특성을 분석하였다. 그리고 L형 플랜지 단면 제원을 일부 변화시켜 볼트-외력 곡선의 변화를 분석하였다.

추력 10 tonf 액체로켓용 가스발생기를 최적설계하고 설계 검증을 위한 연소 실험을 실시하였다. 연소실에 사용된 인젝터는 F-O-F triplet 충돌형 인젝터 이었으며 추진제는 kerosene/LOX을 사용하였다. 측정된 연소 온도와 압력은 최적 설계에서 얻은 설계 값과 매우 유사한 값을 나타내어 최적설계가 적절히 이루어 졌음을 확인하였다. 그리고 난류 고리를 설치하여 연소가스의 혼합을 촉진시킨 결과, 연소실 압력은 3.2% 감소에 그친 반면, 반경 방향 온도분포는 편차가 15K 이하로 줄어들어 우수한 온도 분포 특성을 나타내었다. 또한 후단부에서 축 방향 온도분포를 측정한 결과 최적 설계로부터 얻은 가스발생기 길이를 10% 줄일 수 있음을 발견하였으며 난류고리의 위치를 적절히 조절한다면 그 이상의 길이 감소도 가능한 것으로 판단하였다.
