This research designed Waste Heat Recovery System(WHRS) generation system of 250kW whose working fluid is R-245fa and studied on cycle characteristics by superheater organization. It simulated two conditions; series connection and parallel connection between superheater and evaporator. In simulation of series connection of superheater and evaporator, output of 4.7% could be improved because of the increase of enthalpy by overheating of working fluid. When setting 250kW for target output, cycle flux could be reduced by 4.1%. When setting 250kW as a target output of cycle In parallel connection simulation of superheater and evaporator, cycle flux was reduced as flux of heat source fluid for superheater was increased. So, the maximum 7.9% of working fluid pump's electric power was reduced and there was no big change in cycle efficiency and net efficiency by flux ratio.

In this research, we analysed design and CFD analysis of an inflow radial turbine for OTEC with an output power of 8kW using an working fluid of ammonia. The inflow radial turbine consists of scroll casing, vain nozzle with 18 blade numbers and rotor blade with 13 blade numbers. Mass flow rate, and inlet temperature are 0.5kg/s and $25^{\circ}C$ respectively, and variable rotational speeds were applied between 12,000 and 36,000 with 3,000 rpm intervals. As the results according to the rotational speeds, the designed speed is 24,000 rpm where maximum efficiency exists. The maximum efficiency and output power are 88.66% and 8.52kW, respectively. Through this study, we expect that the analysed results will be used as the design material for the composition of the turbine optimal design parameters corresponding to the target output power under various working material conditions.

The cycle of heat engine which produces the maximum power output is constructed when heat sources are finitely constant, and the maximum power as a thermodynamic limit of the engine, is obtained. The characteristics of the maximum power cycle are as follows, which represent the operation conditions and design conditions of the heat engine to produce the maximum power output. In heat exchangers, the temperature profiles of the heat source and the working fluid have the same functional formula and the ratio of the working fluid temperature to the heat source temperature is constant. When heat capacity flow rates(product of the specific heat and the mass flow rate) of the working fluid as well as the heat source are constant, the values of those of working fluid exist between those of two heat sources. The relation of the temperature and the heat capacity flow rate is established without the states of the heat sources and the capacities of heat exchangers, which is ( $T_{h}$/ $T_{H}$)( $C_{h}$/ $C_{H}$)=( $T_{1}$/ $T_{L}$)( $c_{1}$/ $c_{L}$)=1. The capacity of the heat exchanger of hot side is equal to that of cold side regardless of the states of the heat sources and the total capacities of heat exchangers.hangers.ers.

The paper deals with vibration suppression and dynamic stability of a vertical cantilevered pipe conveying an internal flowing fluid and having an attached mass. Real pipe systems may have some valves or mechanical attached parts, which can be regarded as attached lumped masses. The effect of attached mass on the dynamic stability of a cantilevered pipe conveying fluid is investigated for different locations and magnitudes of the attached mass. The flow rate was controlled through motor pump output and measured by a flow meter. Experimental resutls in the vicinity of flutter fluid velocity were compared with theoretical predictions. It has been found that the experimental results are in substantial agreement with the theoretical predictions. Finally, in order to suppress the vibration of the pipe subjected to a disturbance, and control technique using an internal flowing fluid is introduced.

The purpose of this research is to construct the experimental test set-ups and establish a series of performance test program for the domestically developed fluid couplings, and to provide a software to store and utilize these experimental data which can be used to improve the performance of the fluid coupling and solve on the job problems confronted in operation. The performance test consists of taking measurement of torque rpm and efficiency of the fluid coupling for three different amount of working fluid inside with various loads to the output shaft and finally investigating the torque rpm and efficiency characteristics of the fluid coupling with respect to these parameters. The results of this study can contribute valuable references tot the development of variable speed fluid coupling and torque converter currently pursued by the domestic industry.

In this study, the characteristic of fluid flow in the new type lung assist devices has been established using computational fluid dynamics(CFD). For the modeling, the hollow fiber was ignored, and vertical types and tangential types were used for the model. Which was to analyze the flow characteristics of the fluid flow model when there exists 1 and 2 input/output ports, and when the input/output ports is located at the center of the cylinder and at the tangential direction with the cylinder wall. The modeling results showed that it was possible to eliminate no-flow region(stagnant layer) as shown in the vertical type when an inlet and an outlet were installed on the tangential direction of the cylinder as shown in the tangential type. Also, in the tangential type, vortex-type flow appeared as dominant, and it showed a complicated flow not deviated to one side. When the number of input/output was two, there was no deviated flow, and complicated flows were generated all across the tube. From the test result, it was found that input/output of flow was tangential type and complicated flows with no stagnant layer would be generated when there are two inputs/outputs, respectively.

The power output of the stirling engine is influenced by the regenerator effectiveness. The regenerator effectiveness is influenced by heat transfer and flow friction loss of the regenerator matrix. In this paper, in order to provide basic data for the design of the regenerator matrix, characteristics of working fluid velocities were investigated by a packed method of matrix in the oscillating flow as the same condition of operation in a Stirling engine. As matrices, two different wire screens were used. The results are summarized as follows; 1. When a regenerator is not filled with any wire screen, working fluid velocity of the oscillating flow shows 1.3 times faster than that of one directional flow. 2. When a regenerator is filled with the wire screen of No.50, working fluid velocity of the oscillating flow reveals 2.5 times faster than that of one directional flow. 3. When a regenerator is filled with the wire screen of No. 100, working fluid velocity of the oscillating flow shows 2 times faster than that of one directional flow, regardless of the number of packed wire screens. 4. Working fluid velocity is decreased wire the increase in number of meshes and packed wire screens.

The purpose of this paper is to gain a greater understanding of the performance of practical wind turbine generating systems with differing output power controllers and controlling means for wind turbine speed. Subjected wind turbines, both equipped with an asynchronous power generator, are located at two sites and are defined as wind turbine A and wind turbine B in this study, respectively. Their performance differences are examined by measuring wind speed and electric parameters. The study suggests that both wind turbines have a clear linkage between current and output power fluctuations. Comparison of the fluctuations to wind speed fluctuation, although they are triggered primarily by wind speed fluctuation, clearly indicates the specific behaviors inherent to the respective turbine control mechanisms.

This paper addresses an approximation and tracking control of recurrent neural networks(RNN) using two-dimensional iterative learning algorithm for an electro-hydraulic servo system. And two dimensional learning rule is driven in the discrete system which consists of nonlinear output function and linear input. In order to control the trajectory of position, two RNN's with the same network architecture were used. Simulation results show that two RNN's using 2-D learning algorithm are able to approximate the plant output and desired trajectory to a very high degree of a accuracy respectively and the control algorithm using two same RNN was very effective to control trajectory tracking of electro-hydraulic servo system.
