테이퍼말뚝의 연직거동은 지반의 응력상태와 내부마찰각, 말뚝의 벽면마찰각, 말뚝의 테이퍼 각도에 영향을 받는다. 본 논문에서는 테이퍼 각도가 말뚝의 연직거동에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해서 가압토조를 이용한 모형말뚝시험을 실시하였다. 시험결과에 따르면 말뚝의 테이퍼 각도가 커질수록 주면마찰력은 커지고 선단지지력은 감소하였으나, 단위 선단지지력의 경우 보통 상대밀도의 지반에서는 말뚝의 테이퍼 각도에 비례해서 증가하였으나 조밀한 지반에서는 테이퍼 각도에 따라 감소하였다. 그리고 말뚝의 전체지지력에 대한 주면마찰력의 비율은 테이퍼 각도가 커짐에 따라 그리고 지반의 상대밀도가 작아짐에 따라 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 또한 말뚝의 단위 체적당 전체지지력은 지반이 느슨할 때는 테이퍼 각도에 따라 증가했지만 조밀한 지반에서는 테이퍼 각도에 따라 감소하였다. 따라서 테이퍼말뚝은 조밀한 지반보다는 느슨한 지반에서 더 경제성이 있는 것으로 나타났다.

Six shear coaxial injectors with different recess length and taper angle were manufactured. Cold-flow tests on the injectors were performed at room temperature and pressure using water and air as simulants. By changing the water mass flow rate and air mass flow rate, spray images were taken under single-injection and bi-injection. Breakup length and spray angle were analyzed from instantaneous and averaged spray images using image processing techniques. For all the injectors, the breakup length generally decreased as the momentum flux ratio increased at the same gas mass flow rate. The injectors with 7.5° taper angle usually had the longest breakup length and the smallest spray angle. When the taper angle was 15° or more, it hardly affected breakup length and spray angle. The recess length did not influence breakup length but its effect on spray angle depended on the taper angle.

Cylindrical turbine guide bearings (TGBs) with simple plain pads have conventionally been used in vertical hydro-power turbine-generator applications in order to provide turbine runner shafts with smooth rotation guides and supports. To overcome low-load/low-eccentricity performance drawbacks, such as very low film stiffness and lack of design credibility in the stiffness values themselves, of conventional cylindrical TGBs, the introduction of a rotational-directional leading-edge taper to each partitioned pad, simply pad leading-edge taper, has been found to be very effective in enhancing their design-application availability and usefulness. In this study, we investigate the effects of taper angle and length for given taper heights in detail in order to systematically establish the effectiveness of design on the performance improvement of vertical hydro-power application cylindrical TGBs with pad leading-edge tapers. The analysis results with $4-Pad{\times}1-Row$ cylindrical TGBs show that the lubrication performance of the cylindrical TGBs is optimized with an approximate taper angle ratio of 0.8 and taper length ratio of 0.9. We conclude that the introduction of pad leading-edge tapers along with the optimization of taper designs can be very effective in improving the overall operation reliability of cylindrical TGBs and the rotordynamic characteristics of vertical hydro-power turbine-generator rotor-bearing systems as well, to which the TGBs are applied.

In machining operation, the quality of surface finish is an important factor for many turned products. In this paper, surface quality in turning machining considering angle variation has been investigated. To reach this goal, surface quality turning experiments are carried out according to cutting conditions with angle variation. The variable cutting conditions are cutting speed, feed rate and taper angle of workpiece. The surface roughness was measured and the effects of cutting conditions were analyzed by the method of analysis of variance (ANOVA). From the experimental results and ANOVA, it is found that a better surface roughness can be obtained as decreasing feed rate, increasing cutting speed. Taper angle variation has been more influenced by feed rate and cutting speed.

The purpose of this study is to obtain the optimal operating condition of conduction cooled taper shape high-temperature superconductor (HTS) current lead operated in current sharing mode. In our previous study, we discovered that the optimal operating condition of constant cross-section area HTS current lead is in the current sharing state, and in optimal condition, the temperature gradient at warm end is not zero. The analysis result of taper HTS current lead is quiet similar to the constant area HTS current lead. The minimum dissipation of taper HTS current lead is not influenced by taper angle, however the optimal operation condition is varied with taper angle.

The thread load distribution as applied to large stud bolts for steam turbines is investigated using the finite element method. The stress concentration in tapered threads is studied with varying prestress and taper angle. Based upon the thread load distribution, the optimal taper angles to reduce the stress concentration are determined for various prestresses. The presented finite element model is validated by comparing results of the calculated thread load with analytic ones. The optimal taper angles obtained from this research can be used in designing tapered threads of large stud bolts for steam turbines.

A multi-stage compressor (MSC) is comprised of several impellers installed in the pinion gear shaft driven by a main bull gear. In the pinion shaft, a thrust collar (TC) is installed to support the thrust load. The TC makes the lubrication system simpler in the MSC; therefore, it is widely used in similar kinds of machinery. Typically, TCs are installed on both sides of the bull gear and pressure is developed in the lubricated area by creating a taper angle on the TC and bull gear surface. In the current study, we developed a numerical analysis model to evaluate the performance of the TC considering its design parameters. We sloved the Reynolds equation using the finite element method and applied the half Sommerfeld condition to consider cavitation. Based on the pressure calculated in the lubricated area, we calculated the power loss and minimum film thickness. In addition, we calculated stiffness and damping using perturbation method. We performed parametric studies using the developed model. The results of the analysis show that the maximum pressure presents in the center area of the TC and it increases with the taper angle. The area over which pressure is developed decreases with the taper angle. The results also show that there is an optimum taper angle providing minimum power loss and maximum film thickness. Additionally, the stiffness and damping decrease with the taper angle. As the applied load increases, the power loss increases and the minimum film thickness decreases. However, the stiffness and damping increase with the applied load.

Equations of motion of a rotating blade considering pre-twist angle, cross section taper and a concentrated mass are derived using the hybrid deformation variable modeling method. For the modeling of a concentrated mass which is located at an arbitrary position of the blade, a Dirac delta function is employed for the mass density function. The final equations for the vibration analysis are transformed into a dimensionless form using several dimensionless parameters. The effects of the dimensionless parameters on the vibration characteristics of the rotating blade are investigated through numerical analysis.
