A series-hybrid power system was designed for quad-tilt prop UAV and the characteristics was analysed. The power system consists of a 4.5kW rotary engine-generator and a li-battery as power sources, a power controller manages the overall power and supplies to the vehicle system. The output power of the engine is to be matched with the generator performance considering mechanical driving loss and generating efficiency, and also loss for charging and discharging of the battery energy. It is applied that the constant speed operation of the engine-generator to minimize overall fuel consumption by integrating the generating power and the battery energy, consequentially the battery capacity and characteristics could be important factors for improvement of the system efficiency.

Hybrid powertrain systems have been developed to improve the fuel efficiency of internal combustion engines. In the case of a parallel hybrid powertrain system, an engine and a motor are directly coupled. Because of the hardware configuration of the parallel hybrid system, friction and the pumping losses of internal combustion engines always exists. Such losses are the primary factors that result in the deterioration of fuel efficiency in the parallel-type hybrid powertrain system. In particular, the engine operates as a power consumption device during the fuel-cut condition. In order to improve the fuel efficiency for the parallel-type hybrid system, cylinder deactivation (CDA) technology was developed. Cylinder deactivation technology can improve fuel efficiency by reducing pumping losses during the fuel-cut driving condition. In a CDA engine, there are two operating modes: a CDA mode and an SI mode according to the vehicle operating condition. However, during the mode change from CDA to SI, a serious fluctuation of the air-fuel ratio can occur without adequate control. In this study, an air-fuel ratio control algorithm during the mode transition from CDA to SI was proposed. The control algorithm was developed based on the mean value CDA engine model. Finally, the performance of the control algorithm was validated by various engine experiments.

Today, the number of vehicle increased rapidly with the development of modem science technology, and it caused serious problems; traffic jam, accident and pollution etc. One of the solve methods these problems it is necessary to develope the vehicle navigation systems and it is already widely used to in field of military etc. Vehicle navigation system can increase the efficiency of traffic flow and offer at a drivers at a best driving conditions. In the vehicle navigation, most important thing is to measure of correct position. There are classifiable as three types. The first is G.P.S., method at artificial satellites which measures the present position and velocity any time, any where in the world at the same time. Secondly, a vehicle can determine its position and path information with a gyroscope and odometer signal, which is called Dead-Reckoning method. Thirdly, hybrid navigation system is the combined of two methods to make utilize the advantage of each navigation system. In the paper, we are analyzed to characteristics at a gyro sensor and introduce at a composition of hybrid navigation system which is combined with the G.P.S., D.R., and map-matching technique. We analyze deeply for the Map-Matching method and explain the coordinate transformation for G.P.S., and the Hybrid navigation algorithm is developed and experimented. Finally, we conclude and comment about our road test results.

The piezoelectric-hydraulic actuator is a hybrid device that consists of a hydraulic pump driven by a piezo-stack coupled to a conventional hydraulic cylinder. The actuator is of compact size, but can produce a moderate energy output. Such hybrid actuators are currently being researched and developed in many industrialized countries due to the requirement for high performance and compact flight systems. In a previous study, we designed and manufactured a unidirectional hybrid actuator. However, the blocking force was not as high as expected. Therefore, in this study, we redesigned the pump chamber and hydraulic cylinder and also improved the system by removing the air bubbles. Two different types of piezo-stacks were used. In order to achieve bidirectional capabilities in the actuator, commercial solenoid valves were used to control the direction of the output cylinder. Experimental testing of the actuator in unidirectional and bidirectional modes was performed to examine performance issues related to driving frequency, bias pressure, reed valve thickness, etc. The results showed that the maximum blocking force was measured as 970.2N when the frequency was 185Hz.

In this paper, engine clutch engagement shock is analyzed during the mode change of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. Multi-driving mode includes the EV (electric vehicle) mode, HEV (hybrid electric vehicle) mode, and engine operating mode. Depending on the mode change, the engine clutch is either engaged or disengaged. The magnitude of shock during clutch engagement is very important because it impacts vehicle acceleration and clutch synchronization speed, which affects ride comfort substantially. The performance simulator of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles was developed using MATLAB/Simulink. The simulation results show that the mode change control algorithm is necessary for minimizing shock during clutch engagement.

Recently, research attention has been focused on vibration-free vehicles to transport small numbers of expensive electronic products. Vibration-free vehicles can be used to transport expensive test equipment or semiconductors, mainly produced in the domestic IT industry, and can serve as a readily available transportation system for short driving distances due to the increased efficiency on narrow national highways. This study was aimed at developing a Z-Spring to minimize the vibration by installing an air spring instead of the plate spring applied to conventional freight cars and to prevent the damage of the loaded cargo from the shock occurring during movement. The mechanical properties (elastic modulus, tensile strength, and shear strength) of carbon fiber (CF) and glass fiber (GF) prepreg were derived, and ANSYS ACP PrepPost analyses were performed. It was observed that in the case of hybrid composites, the total deformation and equivalent stress are higher than that of CFRP; however, in terms of the unit cost, the hybrid Z-Spring is more inexpensive and durable compared to the GF.

The hybrid constructed wetland(HCW) as tertiary treatment process of a bio industrial wastewater treatment plant was employed to estimate applications for the reuse of final effluent. Raw wastewater was sequently treated through chemical and biological treatment processes and the biologically treated water was flowed into the HCW. The HCW system was composed of two constructed wetlands connected in series; The one is the aerobic constructed wetland with natural air draft system whose driving force for air supply was the difference between the temperature of the air inside the wetland and the ambient air, and the other is the anaerobic/anoxic constructed wetland. Average influent concentrations of BOD, SS, T-N and T-P in the HCW were 53mg/L, 48mg/L, 34mg/L and 3mg/L, respectively. After being treated at HCW, final effluent concentrations of BOD, SS, T-N and T-P were 2.3mg/L, 1.2mg/L, 7.95mg/L and 0.83mg/L, respectively. Referring to a reuse standard for a sewage wastewater, final effluent could sufficiently be reuse as landscaping, washing or agriculture water. HCW system with the aerobic/anaerobic combined constructed wetland could be achieved a high removal efficiency because each constructed wetland was functionalized to be removed efficiently organics, nitrogen and phosphorus. HCW system could be estimated to be successful application as tertiary treatment process of a various industrial and municipal wastewater.

Hybrid ballast for field emission lamp with CNT (carbon nano tube) emitter is proposed. Hybrid ballast consists of a high voltage dc part and hi-polar pulse generation part. Field emission lamp with CNT lamp is composed of three electrodes (anode, gate, and cathode). High voltage dc part is for anode and gate and hi-polar pulse generation part is for gate and cathode in CNT triode respectively. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed topology is good for driving CNT lamp. To protect the lamp and ballast, OCP (Over Current Protection), OVP (Over Voltage Protection), and OTP (Over Temperature Protection) are added and the experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is good for driving field emission lamp with CNT emitter.
