Because of overload working condition of sintering cooler, the cooler fan often suffers the break or damage of rotor blade and fixing shaft. Therefore, internal flow characteristics of a steelworks sintering cooler fan by the duct shape of the cooler fan outlet, such as duct outlet opening ratio, duct height and dividing wall shape on the duct outlet flow pattern are examined in detail. The results show that relatively short duct wall height and attachment of dividing wall shape improves flow patterns considerably.

In this paper, in order to reduce the cogging torque in a permanent motor, a method to optimize the shape of permanent magnet and iron pole is presented. Because the cogging torque comes from the irregular system energy variation according to the rotor position, system energy variation is taken as object function and the object function is minimized to optimize the shape. The positions of permanent magnet surface and iron pole surface are chosen as design parameters and sensitivity of object function with respect to design parameter is calculated. The shape is changed according to sensitivity. Sensitivity can be generated by methods that exploit the FEM formulation. A numerical example shows that about 90% of the original cogging torque is reduced.

This paper suggests the slot wedge shape for reducing the cogging torque of a gearless type direct-drive permanent magnet synchronous generator with open slot shape. To achieve this, we are designed the appropriate specifications of the permanent magnet synchronous generator by selected the appropriate material of slot wedge and various slot wedge shapes. The PMSG models were analyzed by finite element method. Finally, we have suggested appropriate material of slot wedges and its shape which has benefit to further reducing cogging torque and preventing decreasing of the generating power.

This paper presents the shape optimization of a permanent magnet synchronous motor to reduce the torque ripple and iron loss. Specifically, the harmonics of the electromotive force and cogging torque are decreased by adjusting the permanent magnet arrangement and non-uniform air gap length. In addition, an additional flux path along the q-axis is proposed with a unique rotor shape to increase the q-axis inductance and reluctance torque. The improvement in the performance of the proposed model is verified with simulated and experimental results.

In this paper, we studied an optimal design and efficiency improvement of the BLCD motor used in home electronic appliance. The number of stator slots is chosen depending on the rotor poles, phase number, and the winding configuration. In general, a fractional slots/pole design is preferred to minimize cogging torque. To reduce the winding resistance, we reduced the coil length and we improved the coil space factor. We proposed three types of stator slot shape design for the optimal BLDC motor design. One of them, U-type slot shape is a best optimal design, it proved by the simulated and tested. Optimal design of essential parameters aiming at high winding factor are presented to create for a high-quality system implementation. Design analysis is verified by testing and building a prototype motor.

In this paper, the characteristics of the coaxial magnetic gear according to the shape of the same gear ratio are analyzed using the two - dimensional finite element analysis. The rotor shape is SMCMG, CPCMG and RCMG. After this we analyzed the characteristics according to three shapes. Also, the amount of permanent magnet used in each shape was compared. Next, characteristics analysis of the magnetic gear according to the shape at the same torque was performed. And the total weight and efficiency of the magnetic gears were compared and verified.

High-speed air turbine handpieces have been used as a dental cutting tool in clinical dentistry for over 50 years, but little study has been reported on their performance analysis. Therefore, the effect of turbine blade shape on performance characteristics of dental air turbine handpiece were studied using CFD in this paper. Computations have been performed for five different positions of turbine blade by using frozen rotor method that is one of steady-state method. The characteristics of turbine blade for shapes and reflection angles were analyzed. As a result of the computation, torque is increased by increasing the reflection angle of turbine blade.

The purpose of this paper is that investigates the dynamic behavior characteristic of W.T.S(Wind turbine System) and carries out the evaluation analysis during operating W.T.S. To investigate the dynamic behavior characteristic of W.T.S, the experiments to measure vibration of the blade from the attached accelerometer on the flap and edge section of the blade that is one of the most important elements of dynamic characteristic of W.T.S are performed. Natural frequency and mode shape are calculated with commercial program (ANSYS) using the measured vibration acceleration that receives the signal with F.F.T Analyzer from the accelerometer. For validation of these experiments, the finite element analysis is performed with commercial F.E.M program (ANSYS) on the basis of the natural frequency and mode shape. The results indicate that experimental values have good agreements with the finite element analysis.
