An approach for predicting the effective thermal conductivities of fiber-reinforce composite has been developed based on a thermal-electrical analogy. The unit cell of the composite laminate is divided into regular volume elements and the material properties have been given to each element. By constructing the series-parallel thermal resistance network, the thermal conductivities of composite both in-plane and out-of-plane direction have been predicted. Graphite/Epoxy composite is used for a balanced plain-weave composite laminate. By comparing the predicted results and the previous works, good agreement has been found.

This paper compares the performances of permanent-magnet synchronous (PMS) and permanent-magnet vernier (PMV) machines for low-speed and high-torque applications. For comparison with the PMS machines, we consider two types of the PMV machine. The first one has surface-mounted permanent magnets (PMs) on the rotor and the other has PMs inserted on both sides of the stator and rotor. The PMS and PMV machines are designed to meet the condition of equal output power per unit volume. We analyze the magnetic fields of the machines using a two-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA). We then compare their performances in terms of the generated torque characteristics, power factor, loss, and efficiency.

The geometric and elastic models based on the unit cell have been proposed to predict the geometric characteristics and the engineering constants of plain and satin woven composites. In the geometric model, length and inclined angle of the yarn crimp and the fiber volume fraction of woven composites have been predicted. In the elastic model, the coordinate transformation has been utilized to transform the elastic constants of the yarn crimp to those of woven composites, and the effective elastic constants have been determined from the volume averaging of the constituent materials. Good correlations between the model predictions and the experimental results of carbon/epoxy and glass/epoxy woven composites have been observed. Based on the model, the effect of various geometric parameters and materials on the three-dimensional elastic properties of woven composites can be identified.

The new HVAC system to lower the conveyance energy and building height using IAV (Increasing Air Volume) technique is developed. IAV units which are equipped in each zone carry out air-conditioning and supply fresh air by induction of outdoor air in main duct. The design program which decides size of OAHU and IAV unit according to air conditioning load and fresh air demand of each zone is presented. The control system is developed to operate efficiently HVAC system and IAV unit, so that individual zone operation and well-deal with partial load and IAQ problem are possible. The new system is investigated in model building and makes more profit in conveyance energy, size of air conditioning facilities room and building height than VAV system. But in construction cost it is worse by about 15 per-centage.

Effective properties of ceramic matrix plain woven textile composites were calculated using finite element analysis. The considered geometry is a unit cell of plain weave and the analysis was performed by commercial finite element program, ANSYS. The materials for analysis are 3 types for matrix, 1 type for fiber with various volume fraction. The result indicates that the effective properties of ceramic matrix composites can be controlled by the volume fraction. The result can be used for numerical analysis using ceramic matrix composites.

Printed Circuit Boards for satellite are composed of multi-layered copper plate and glass epoxy. Each copper layer have the complicated and different pattern to operate correctly for its mission. Especially. copper layer give effect on the PCB stiffness seriously. But It can make more complicate to predict the exact stiffness of PCB. In KOMPSAT-2 program, too many type of PCB are used for each electronic unit, and they have different type of pattern of copper layer. Solar array regulator has two type of PCB and it will be considered for this study. In this study. we calculate the PCB board stiffness of KOMPSAT-2 SAR unit considering the concept of simplified representative volume element. It will be correlated with the test results under KOMPSAT-2 vibration environmental condition to increase the reliability of this study.

This study was undertaken to investigate the ratio and compositions of tailings of the tailings return unit in the commercially available head-feed combines. The ratio of the returned tailings to the sum of the threshed grain and the returned tailings was 2.3~7.2% for various varieties of rice and operational conditions of combines tested and increased as the feeding rate and the cleaning air volume increased. The analysis of the returned tailings showed that the composition of rubbish and short straw was decreased as the feeding rate and the cleaning air volume increased.

The development of manufacturing technology for braided composites has led to farther extension of the applications in aerospace structures. Since the mechanical characteristics of braided composites are affected by various materials and manufacturing parameters, it is important to determine the parameters required to appropriately design the braided composite structures. In this study, we proposed a geometric model of RUC (repeating unit cell) for 2D braided composites, and predicted the mechanical properties according to the change of fiber volume fraction, fiber filament size, braiding angle, and gap between adjacent yarns by the yarn slicing technique and stress averaging method. Finally, we analyze the characteristics of mechanical properties according to each manufacturing parameter of the braided composite material.

Loss in the multi-stacked HTS wires are affected by a number of factor, such as, number of wires used in the stack, direction of external magnetic field and insulation thickness between the wire. This paper examines the effects of the insulation thickness on the magnetization loss of the multi-stacked YBCO coated conductor. Measurements of magnetization loss were performed using 4 different typo of multi-stacked wires and under various angle of external magnetic field. Test results show that loss density per unit volume increased for YBCO coated conductors when thickness of insulation increased. Loss density per unit volume decreased for YBCO coaled conductors when stacking number of tapes increased.
