The present study numerically investigates the effect of the wavy leading edge on hydrodynamic characteristics for the flow of rectangular wings with the low aspect ratio of 1.5. Five different wave lengths at fixed wavy amplitude have been considered. Numerical simulations are performed at a wide range of the angle of attack ($0^{\circ}{\leq}{\alpha}{\leq}40^{\circ}$) at one Reynolds number of $10^6$. The wavy wings considered in this study did not experience enough lift drop to be defined as the stall, comparing with the smooth wing. However, in the pre-stall region, the wavy wings reveal the considerable loss of the lift, compared to the smooth wing. In the post-stall, the lift coefficients of the smooth wing and the wavy wings are not much different. The pressure coefficient, limiting streamlines and the iso-surface of the spanwise vorticity are also highlighted to examine the effect of the wave length on the flow structures.

Wind turbine system converts wind energy into electric energy. Since the velocity of wind is random in nature, control of the angular velocity of the blade is necessary in order to generate high quality electric power. The control of a blade can be divided into a stall regulation and a pitch control types. The stall regulation type which is based on the characteristics of an aerodynamic stall of the blades is simple and cheap, but it suffers from fluctuation of the resulting power. Or the contrary, pitch control type is based on the fact that the torque of the blade can be changed by varying the pitch angle of the blade. It is mechanically and mathematically complicated, but the control performance is better than that of the stall regulation type. This paper suggests a method of denying a mathematical modeling of the wind turbine system, and develops a speed control algorithm by pitch control. The validity of the algorithm is demonstrated with the results produced through sets of simulation.

Currently, there are many kinds of tracked armored vehicles in service and they have encountered various environment and situations. So there are many obstacles to operate them improperly such as an engine stall. The causes of engine stall are an insufficient fueling, a mixture of air-fuel or vapor lock, and load increment which results from a rapid steering or increasing a viscosity of lubricant by low temperature. In this paper, engine stall by load increment due to a rapid steering or increasing of lubricant viscosity on tracked armored vehicles is analyzed, the ways to prevent it are applied, and their degrees of improvement are evaluated.

The experiment was conducted to find out the effect of 4 feeding systems on growth, feed intake, eating behavior, lactation performance, gestation period, post-partum heat period, conception rate and parasitic infestation of Black Bengal goat. Twenty four does of approximately 1 year of age were randomly selected for 4 treatment (feeding systems) groups having 6 replications in each. Treatments were stall feeding ($T_1$), tethering ($T_2$), restricted grazing ($T_3$) and grazing ($T_4$). $T_1$ group was housed continuously and adequate amounts of natural grass were supplied for ad libitum feeding. $T_2$ group was tethered for grazing natural grass from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. being moved at one hour intervals. Goats of $T_3$ group were allowed grazing from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. $T_4$ group was grazed from 8 a. m. to 4 p.m. Concentrate supplement was given at the rate of 150 g per day per goat for all of the treatment groups. Duration of experiment was 219 days. Daily live weight gain was significantly (p<0.05) higher in case of stall fed goats than that of others. DM intake also significantly (p<0.05) differed among the treatment groups and was 3.40 3.95, 3.76 and 4.05 per cent of their live weight for stall feeding, tethering, restricted grazing and grazing groups, respectively. Rate of rumination was significantly (p<0.05) higher in case of tethering group of goats than that of others. Birth weight of kids, milk yield, lactation period and post-partum heat period were significantly higher in case of stall fed goats than others. Tethering group showed significantly (p<0.05) higher litter size than others. Infestation rate of Fasciola was significantly (p<0.05) higher in the grazing group. In conclusion, it may be stated that among these feeding groups overall performance of stall fed goats was more satisfactory, and that the tethering group showed better performance than the others.

The main aim of this study was to suppress the angular velocity against strong winds during storms and analyze the stability and performance of the phase plane method. The utilization of small-scale wind turbine system has become common in agriculture, houses, etc. Therefore, it is considered to be a scheme for preserving the natural energy or avoiding the use of fossil fuels. Moreover, settling small-scaled wind turbines is simpler and more acceptable compared to ordinary huge wind turbines. In addition, after converting the energy there is no requirement for distribution. Therefore, a much lower cost can be expected for small-scaled wind turbines. On the other hand, this system cannot be operated continuously because the small-scaled wind turbine consists of a small blade that has low inertia momentum. Therefore, it may exceed the boundary of angular velocity, which may cause a fault in the system due to the centrifugal force. The aim of this study was to reduce the angular velocity by controlling the stall factor. Stall factor control consists of two control methods. One is a shock absorber that is loaded in the junction of the axis of the blade of the wind turbine gear wheel and the other is pitch angle control. Basically, the stall factor itself exhibits nonlinear behavior. Therefore, this paper confirmed the feasibility of stall factor control in producing desirable performance whilst maintaining stability.

석탄화력발전소에서 저품위탄 연소시 통풍저항 변화로 인해 승압송풍기의 운전점에 영향을 주는 것을 분석하여 현재운전점 대비 실속시점을 예측하였다. 연료의 발열량이 낮을수록 통풍저항 증가 속도가 빨라지며, 통풍저항과 승압송풍기의 운전점과는 강한 상관관계가 있음을 확인하였다. 발열량이 낮을수록 통풍저항이 빨리 상승하며 이는 곧 승압송풍기의 운전점이 설계탄 대비해서 실속 한계운전점에 빨리 도달하게 된다. 이를 근거로 현재운전점 대비 한계운전점까지의 운전여유분과 발열량별 통풍저항 증가 속도를 계산하여 실속시점을 예측할 수 있어 송풍기 실속으로 인한 발전출력의 감소나 운전정지에 대비한 정비계획 수립 등 안정운전에 많은 도움이 될 것으로 예상한다.

The aerodynamic performance of aircraft in icing condition can deteriorate considerably by contamination of aerodynamic and propulsive systems due to icing accretions on aircraft surfaces. A computational analysis based on the Eulerian description was performed on an airfoil to investigate effects of ice accretions on airfoil aerodynamics. A water droplet with liquid water concentration ($0.00075kg/m^3$) and mean volume diameter ($20{\mu}m$) was considered and applied to various angles of attack to investigate the stall angle decrease and the drag increment.

This paper reports an experimental investigation on a centrifugal compressor with the adjustable inlet guide vane. The compression system is composed of a radial impeller, a vaneless diffuser, and an IGV. The results have shown that surge line on the performance map is affected by the amount of prewhirl and the prewhirl has an effect on transient region between rotating stall and surge. The surge lines have been shifted toward the lower flow region with the increased positive prewhirl and the higher flow region with the increased negative prewhirl. During the unsteady performance test, it was also found that the transient region was reduced with the increased negative prewhirl, and weak signals of rotating stall were detected just before surge as the positive prewhirl was increased.

For the improvement of the pump characteristics in the partial capacity range, it must be verified that the influence of the impeller design factor on the internal flows and the influence of the impeller internal flows on the pump characteristics. In this paper, in order to understand the influence of outlet angles on flow conditions and characteristics of a mixed flow pump, experiments were carried out for four kinds of impeller, which have the same inlet angle distributions and meridional section shapes. Results shown that separation and stall in the partial capacity range were enlarged by the outlet angles. The relationship between the separation and the stall at the impeller and the discharge flow conditions were clarified.

An experimental study on the performance and instability development characteristics of a centrifugal compressor equipped with an adjustable inlet guide vane has been performed with varying guide vane angles. The test was conducted at the design speed of 20,800 rpm for 6 guide vane angles : $-30^{\circ},\;-20^{\circ},\;10^{\circ},\;0^{\circ},\;10^{\circ},\;20^{\circ},\;30^{\circ}$. Unsteady pressures were measured using high-frequency pressure transducers at the inducer to investigate the instability phenomena such as rotating stall and surge inside the compressor. From the unsteady measurements, it is found that the transient process from rotating stall to surge was mainly affected by inlet guide vane angles. The results of the present study can be applied to the instability control of the centrifugal compressors using a adjustable inlet guide vane.
