Most of the steam turbine control valves used for the fossil and nuclear power plants operation in South Korea were developed by GE (General Electric) and manufactured by DHIC (Doosan Heavy Industry Company). For may years, DHIC have tried to develop their own technologies related to the power generation. DHIC has launched many R&D projects and ‘Development of a Control Valve Flow Code for Steam Turbine Operation Control of Fossil Power Plant’ was one of the R&D projects. Through our project, we accomplished the experimental method to obtain a steam turbine control valve characteristic curve using the atmospheric air and the reduced model instead using the steam and the real model. Also, we developed the correction method to calculate the real steam mass flow rate from the characteristic curve obtain by the experiment. In this paper, the effectiveness of the correction method was reviewed and it was concluded that the corrected mass flow rate complies well with the real steam mass flow rate.

In this study, we intend to develop a control valve with oxidation resistance for hydrogen fluoride that can be applied to the semiconductor production process. Operated Valves currently in use is a form of assembling an air cylinder to the valve body. These valves generally have a cylinder body made of aluminum (Al), so they may corrode depending on the external environment, and the solution leaks along the rod inside the cylinder, causing damage to parts due to corrosion. To solve this problem, the valve plug shape was developed by devising and applying a plug using a valve different from the existing method, and it is possible to block the inflow of hydrogen fluoride into the valve control unit, thereby preventing damage to parts as well as maintaining stable valve operation.

The Calorifier is a device that supplies hot water to the crew for showering and cooking. In particular, problems such as hot water not coming out when a trainee and a crew member take a shower at the same time may occur due to a malfunction of the temperature control valve that controls the temperature. In particular, when the hot water usage time is almost constant, such as a training ship, a high calorific value is required. When there is no dissatisfaction with the use of hot water, satisfaction with the educational environment is improved. Therefore, in this study, a solenoid temperature control valve is applied to increase satisfaction with hot water use, and a mechanical time switch is applied to the hot water circulating water pump to save energy.

In addition, a 3-way valve prototype was fabricated and the fracture test was performed and compared with the numerical analysis results.

The various hydraulic equipments including main control valves are composed of relatively long replacement parts, so the stability is very important. These systems ensure system safety by not delivering pressure to actuators when pressure exceeds the limiting pressure. According to various hydraulic equipments, the required pressure of every hydraulic actuators are differenced. So the optimal design of the main valve is indeed needed. In the previous study, the detail shapes and the boundary conditions of the main control valve were studied by CFD analysis using FLUENT. Based on the previous study, the optimal design of the main control valve is done by applying the parametric modeling technique and then the optimum design of the main control valve is investigated by CFD analysis.

The hydraulic equipments has a high utilization in the many works such as the excavation, planation and crane works in the construction sites. They are an essential equipments in the construction site and the loading & unloading works of the large size objects. In the many parts which are composed of the hydraulic equipments, the main control valve(MCV) is the core of the equipments. The hydraulic energy from the pump controls the direction and the rate of flow and supply the pressure energy to the some actuators by MCV. In spite of the domestically producing of the common control valves, the MCV which used to the domestic equipments is imported the whole quantity. In this study, it is to reverse-engineer the MCV as the first step in the development of the MCV. To analyze the notch of the spool and the flow path and to apply the formula technique, we try to realize the optimal modeling of the MCV.

Generally, the three position solenoid valve has veen used for the hydraulic steering gear on account of it’s low cost, simplicity in device, etc. But, there is some off-set because of dead-zone which exists in on-off valves. In this paper, we proposed a combined controller which was added an integral controller to an only on-off one in hydraulic steering gear control system used low speed three position solenoid valve. Experimental results show that the off-set is removed, and the number of valve switching is reduced considerable. The validity of proposed method comparing with an only on-off control was proved by the response experiments.

A cartridge type hydraulic logic valve consists of simple two port valve whose poppet is closed or opened by means of pressure signal of a pilot line. Accordingly, the logic valve can be used not only for direction, flow and pressure control purpose but also for versatile function valve which enables all above mentioned functions. In addition, the valve has little internal leakage and pressure loss, superior response characteristics and easiness in making small block type valve. The above mentioned good performances being recognized recently, the logic valve has been used widely in the large scale hydraulic system such as a hydraulic press system, for the performance requirements of high speed operation and precise control characteristics. However, there are scarce reports until now, except for a few ones from Aachen Institute of Technology in West Germany, so it is necessary to be studied on development and investigation for practical application. This paper showed that the static and dynamic characteristics of a logic valve when the logic valve is used for directional control, to investigate the relations between the valve operating characteristics and the valve design conditions. From the above mentioned procedure, it was ascertained that the valve operation characteristics obtained by numerical analysis showed good agreements with experimental results. The representative results obtained are as follows; 1. During the valve is closing, the poppet velocity is almost constant in the logic valve. 2. The pilot pressure P sub(3) and the resistance R in the pilot line have much influences on the valve operation time. 3. Spring strength have not such a severe influence on the valve operating time. 4. The operation characteristics of the logic valve can be estimated with good accuracy comparatively by numerical analysis with the equations describing poppet motion.
