The pressure in a water-entry induced cavity, is analyzed up to the closed cavity (bubble). Water-entry is a highly transient phenomenon, and the evolution of the water-entry cavity must be explained by considering the entry speed, shape of the solid body, atmosphere pressure, and cavity pressure as the primary variables. This work is an extension of the cavity dynamics model recently reported by Lee (l997a). To extend the model for a wide range of entry speeds the cavity pressure is calculated from a one-dimensional quasi-steady flow model. The estimation of the cavity pressure allows us to explain the experimentally observed surface closure phenomena at low entry speeds. Predictions for the time of surface closure are compared with the published experimental data.

Recently, the recording density of hard disk drives has improved at an annual percentage rate of 100%. Therefore for faster access, higher disk rotational speeds will be required. The influence of the airflow produced by the rotation of a disk on the positioning accuracy has become a serious topic of research and the aerodynamic aspect of hard disk drives is now quite considerable with the increases in recording density and higher rotational speeds. Unsteady airflow in an actual hard disk drive is numerically simulated by using LES(Large Eddy Simulation) technique, we could predicted and aerodynamic mechanism that was related actuators' surroundings in HDD. At a result, with modifying the various shapes of the E-block and Damper, we estimated the characteristic of the influence of airflow in HDDs.

In the present study, the performance characteristics and the number of stall cells during rotating stall of a centrifugal air compressor were experimentally investigated. If the flow coefficient is lower than 0.150, the static pressure at impeller inlet is higher than that at inlet duct And reverse flow is observed under these flow coefficient region. Maximum adiabatic efficiency is obtained for the tested compressor around flow coefficient 0.128, and it is independent of compressor rotating speed. The number of stall cells and their rotational speeds are distinctive features of the rotating stall phenomenon. The present study is mainly concerned with the number of stall cells and their rotational speeds. The interpretation method of visualization is based on the pressure distribution in the circumference pressure fields while plotting the pressure and its harmonics variations in time in polar coordinates.

The objective of this study is to investigate proper cutting conditions of cellulose acetate(CA) for eyewear frames. Various cutting experiments with variation of spindle speeds and feed rates are conducted to evaluate the machinability of CA. The machinability of CA materials were discussed in terms of the cutting forces, surface roughnesses and chip formations. The cutting conditions of high spindle speeds and the feed per tooth of less than 0.05mm are recommended considering the surface roughnesses and chip formations. Also, the correlation between the surface roughness and the chip formation is investigated. These results are able to be applied to design the high-speed machine tool of CA frame.

A sensorless control of a PM synchronous motor under the parameter variation is presented. The rotor position is estimated by using the d-axis and q-axis current errors between the real system and motor model of the estimator. The stator resistance is measured at low speeds when the motor changes its rotating direction. The gains in the position estimator are also adapted according to the motor speeds.

This paper is proposed maximum torque control for electric vehicle drive. At low speeds, the reluctance torque is used to maximize the output for a given current level. This Is achieved maximum torque per ampere(MTPA) by selecting an optimal value of the direct stator current component. At high speeds, the system reaches a point at which the inverter will not be able to supply the desired voltage In this case it Is necessary to make use of an increased value the direct current component. The proposed control algorithm is applied to PMSM drive system, the operating characteristics controlled by maximum torque control are examined in detail by simulation.

The spray characteristics of the high speed rotating fuel injection system were studied. The five variants of rotating fuel nozzle were used by spray test. The diameter of single column injection orifices are varied from 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm and 5 mm. We constructed high speed rotating test rig and measured droplet size by PDPA (Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer) system. Also spray was visualized by using high speed camera. In the test results, we could understand that length of liquid column from the injection orifice is mainly controlled by the rotational speeds. SMD is decreased with increasing injection orifice diameter and rotational speeds. Furthermore, from the comparison to the theoritical calculation, we confirmed that SMD is influenced by the liquid film thickness which is formed inner surface of injection orifice.

In induction machine drive without a speed sensor, the estimation of the motor flux and speed often becomes deteriorated at low speeds with low back EMF. Our analysis shows that, in addition to the state resistance variation, the estimated value of field orientation angle is often corrupted by accumulative errors from the integration of voltage variables at motor terminals that have low signal/noise ratio at low frequencies. A repetitive loop path of integration in the feedback can amplify this type of error, thus speeding up the degradation process. The control system runs into information starvation due to the loss of correct field orientation. The machine's spiral vectors are controlled only in a reduced dimension in this situation. A novel control scheme is developed to improve the control performance of motor's current, torque and speed at low frequencies. The scheme gains a full-dimensional vector control and is less sensitive to the combined effect of the error sources at the low frequencies. Experimental tests demonstrate promising performances are achievable even below 0.5 Hz.

It seems possible, by use of vegetable oils, to solve the pollution problem caused by the exhaust gas from diesel-engine vehicles. Recently vegetable oils has received considerable attention as an alternative and clean energy source to the foreseeable depletion of world oil supplies. The objective of this study is to experimentally investigate the characteristics of exhaust emissions of a small diesel engine using light oil, rice-bran oil, heated rice-bran oil, rice-bran oil treated with ultrasonic energy. SO$_2$ emission from the pure and the treated rice-bran oils was not detected at speeds hgher than 1,800 rpm while that from the light oil was detected at all the speeds at 4/4 load. NOx emission form these vegetable oils was generally higher compared to that from the light oil for most of the test conditions. tendency opposite to that of NOx emission. The data obtained in this experiment may be applicable for the desist of small diesel engine using the alternative fuels.
