Recently, greenhouse effect by $CO_2$ gas emitted by use of fossil fuel causes earth environmental problem. As a countermeasure of the global warming. micro hydropower under 100kW becomes the focus of attention for its clean and renewable energy sources. Newly developed micro positive displacement hydraulic turbine shows high efficiency and good applicability for the micro hydropoewer. The purpose of this study is to clarify the influence of leakage loss and effective head on the performance of the positive displacement hydraulic turbine for the further improvement of the turbine performance. The results show that the turbine. with a smaller side clearance. has much higher efficiency than that with bigger side clearance and it can sustain the high efficiency under the wider range of operation conditions. The turbine torque is proportional to the effective head and independent of the flow rate. The leakage is also dependent on the effective head but nearly independent of the flow rate.

본 연구에서는 압력면윙렛/흡입면스퀼러형 터빈 동익 팁에 대하여 익렬 하류에서 3차원 유동 및 압력손실을 측정하였다. 팁간극비 h/s = 1.36%에 대하여, 흡입면스퀼러의 높이는 $h_s/s$ = 3.75%로 일정하게 유지하고, 압력면윙렛의 폭은 w/p = 2.64%, 5.28%, 7.92%, 10.55% 등으로 변화시키면서 실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과, 본 연구의 팁은 평면팁 대비 통로와류 영역에서 압력손실의 저감 효과가 매우 뛰어났지만, 팁누설와류 영역에서는 오히려 압력손실을 크게 증가시켰다. 본 연구의 질량평균 압력손실은 평면팁에 비해 크게 낮았지만, 전면스퀼러팁보다는 더 크게 나타났다. 압력면윙렛의 폭이 증가할수록 질량평균 압력손실은 감소하는 경향을 보였다.

본 연구에서는 압력면익단소익의 폭이 터빈 동익 압력면스퀼러팁 하류의 팁누설유동 및 압력손실에 미치는 영향에 대하여 연구하였다. 팁간극비 h/s = 1.36%에 대하여, 흡입면스퀼러의 높이는 $h_p/s=3.75%$로 일정하게 유지하고, 압력면익단소익의 폭은 w/p = 2.64%, 5.28%, 7.92%, 10.55% 등으로 변화시키면서 실험을 수행하였다. 일반적으로 압력면익단소익의 폭이 증가할수록, 통로와류 영역에서의 압력손실은 감소하였지만 팁누설유동 영역에서는 압력손실이 오히려 증가하였다. 그 결과 익단소익의 폭이 증가할수록, 질량평균 압력손실은 매우 소폭 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 본 연구 결과, 압력면스퀼러팁에 설치된 압력면익단소익은 압력손실 저감에 거의 기여를 하지 못함을 확인할 수 있었다.

Leakage flow through turbine blade tip gap causes strong leakage vortex near the blade suction side and induces large aerodynamic losses. In this study, the conventional plane tip and various squealer tip blades were tested in a linear cascade in order to measure the effect of the tip shape on the total pressure loss. Three tip gap clearances of 0.6%, 1.3%, and 2.0% of blade span were tested. Flow measurement was conducted at one chord downstream from the trailing edge with a five-hole probe. Results showed that the leakage vortex was stronger than passage vortex and the mass averaged overall total pressure loss through the cascade was the lowest for suction side blade tip case. For all tested cases, the area averaged overall total pressure loss was increased as the tip clearance increased.

Basic simulation program for Vuilleumier cycle heat pump was developed that can use precise VMHP design and analysis. VMHP system was divided 11 sections in simulation. Simulation was used adiabatic model analysis and that considered with heat transfer performance for heat exchanger, regenerator loss, conduction loss, shuttle loss, pumping loss and pressure loss by flow friction. Specially, friction loss of connection pipe between heat compression side and heat pump side, leakage of rod seal and piston seal was considered in the analysis.

In this paper, a power loss analysis technique of a high-frequency transformer of a bidirectional DAB (Dual Active Bridge) converter is reported. To miniaturize the transformer of the dual active bridge converter, a resonant inductor was designed with an air gap included low-coupled rate state core to combine leakage inductor with the resonant inductor which is required for soft-switching. In this paper, leakage inductance and magnetizing inductance, core material, type of winding and winding method are included in the dual active bridge transformer loss analysis process to enable optimal design at the initial design stage. Transformer loss analysis for dual active bridge with a switching frequency of 200 kHz and maximum output of 5 kW was executed, and elements necessary for design based on the number of turns on the primary side were graphed while maintaining the transformer turns ratio and window area. In particular, it was possible to determine the optimal number of turns and thickness of the transformer, and ultimately, the total loss of the transformer could be estimated.

For efficient design process of regenerative blower, the present study provides new generalized pressure and leakage flow loss models, which can be used in the performance analysis method of regenerative blower. The present performance analysis on designed blower is made by incorporating momentum exchange theory between impellers and side channel with mean line analysis method, and its pressure loss and leakage flow models are generalized from the related fluid mechanics correlations which can be expressed in terms of blower design variables. The present performance analysis method is applied to four existing models for verifying its prediction accuracy, and the prediction and the test results agreed well within a few percentage of relative error. Furthermore, the present performance analysis method is also applied in developing a new blower used for fuel cell application, and the newly designed blower is manufactured and tested through chamber-type test facility. The performance prediction by the present method agreed well with the test result and also with the CFD simulation results. From the comparison results, the present performance analysis method is shown to be suitable for the actual design practice of regenerative blower.

Three-dimensional vortical flow and separated flow topology near the casing wall in an axial flow fan having two different tip clearances have been investigated by a Reynolds-averaged Wavier-Stokes (RANS) flow simulation. The simulation shows that the tip leakage vortex formed close to the leading edge of the blade tip on suction side grows in the streamwise direction. On the casing wall, a separation line is formed upstream of the leakage vortex center due to the interference between the leakage vortex and main flow. The reverse flow is observed between the separation line and the attachment line generated downstream of the trailing edge, and increased with enlarging tip clearance. The patterns of a leakage velocity vector including a leakage flow rate are also analyzed according to two tip clearances. It is noted that the understanding of the distribution of a limiting streamline on the casing wall is very important to grasp the characteristics of the vortical flow in the axial flow fan.

The effect of pressure-side opening length on three-dimensional flow fields and aerodynamic losses downstream of a cavity squealer tip has been investigated in a turbine rotor cascade for the squealer rim height-to-chord ratio and tip gap height-tochord ratio of $h_{st}/c$ = 5.05% and h/c = 2.0% respectively. The opening length-to-camber ratio is changed to be $OL/c_c$ = 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, and 0.7 The results show that longer OL leads not only to weaker secondary flow but also to lower aerodynamic loss in the tip leakage vortex region, while it significantly widens the area with high aerodynamic loss in the passage vortex region. The aerodynamic loss coefficient mass-averaged all over the measurement plane is kept almost constant for $0.0{\leq}OL/c_c{\leq}0.3$, whereas it increases rapidly for $OL/c_c$ > 0.3 in proportion to $OL/c_c$. There is little deterioration in flow turning with increasing $OL/c_c$.

본 연구에서는 이중구조를 갖는 팬의 날개 끝에서 발생하는 손실을 저감시키기 위하여 바깥 날개 끝 익형단면을 세 축으로 회전시키는 Conic winglet을 적용하였다. 손실을 계산하기 위하여 CFD 전산해석을 수행하였으며, 최소의 손실을 얻기 위하여 최적화를 수행하였다. 최적화 결과 Conic winglet은 바깥 날개 끝의 후단 부근에서 압력면 쪽으로 휘어진 형상을 보였으며 이 형상은 날개 끝에서 발생하는 전압력 손실을 3.24 % 저감시켰다.
