This study was conducted to explore ways to improve the operation of NCS-based curricula, focusing on vocational education programs. The purpose is to design and establish an effective NCS-based vocational education curriculum and to apply it in educational settings. For the purpose of improving the operation of NCS-based curricula, this study first reviewed the relevant information and system operations presented on the National Competency Standards (NCS) website (http://www.ncs.go.kr/). This is because effective vocational education can only be achieved when accurate information regarding the curriculum and educational content is properly delivered. In conclusion, it is required to identify the problems in the design, composition, and operation of vocational education curricula, and to establish curriculum design strategies that can enhance the overall efficiency of vocational education programs. Based on the results of this study, the research examined the competency unit “Inspection of Aircraft Reciprocating Engine Fuel Systems” under the NCS categories — Major Category [15. Machinery], Subcategory [09. Aircraft Manufacturing], Minor Category [03. Aircraft Maintenance], and Detailed Category [03. Aircraft Reciprocating Engine Maintenance] — and designed the learning content for the NCS learning module “Inspecting the Boost Pump.” The designed practical training plan has the following characteristics: First, by incorporating additional content from the NCS competency unit, it was structured to be applicable in actual workplaces that operate aircraft equipped with reciprocating engines. Second, it aims to enhance troubleshooting skills required for the maintenance of aircraft reciprocating engines. Third, the contents were designed to align with the practical training environments of educational institutions while ensuring applicability to real-world work settings. Fourth, it was designed to allow learners to simultaneously practice content related to obtaining aviation-related certifications. This study is significant in that it designed a vocational education curriculum and proposed effective strategies for improving vocational education. However, there are certain limitations. The study did not include an empirical implementation or analysis of the results based on the designed instructional program. In addition, it did not develop curricula that reflect the specific characteristics of individual subjects within the field of NCS-based aircraft maintenance through the design of diverse course modules.

In this study, for the design of the impeller and volute casing shape of the water pump for flood prevention, performance was predicted through numerical analysis to secure the theoretical power and hydraulic efficiency of the front well at the discharge well 300m3/h, which is the target design specification, and the flow characteristics of each flow rate were checked and verified. Through the results of this flow analysis, it was possible to secure the basic shape design of the impeller and volute casing of the water pump for flood prevention. In the future, we will perform an interpretation to confirm structural safety according to shape and material.

This study presents energy-saving performance analysis of a recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) that uses seawater-source heat pumps to control the seawater temperature in the breeding tank. The analysis is based on artificial neural network (ANN) and TRNSYS-based digital twin simulations. The complex thermal load of the RAS, which fluctuates in real time due to changing environmental conditions, is simulated using the dynamic simulation software, TRNSYS. A fuzzy logic controller (FLC) was designed based on the dynamic heat load calculated by TRNSYS and the water temperature data of the breeding tank enabling capacity control of the inverter manipulator of the heat pump. At this stage, energy is saved through the control of the variable speed compressor responding to the partial load via the inverter. Power consumption was predicted at appropriate time intervals using a custom-built ANN model. The prediction results are used to determine the optimal number of heat pumps to operate. Through the digital twin simulation, the proposed heat pump capacity control is compared with conventional operating number control in terms of temperature regulation performance and power consumption. The results demonstrated that the proposed method can be easily implemented in Matlab and significantly improves energy efficiency in RAS farms.

In order to prevent disconnection of the hydraulic pump EDV cable, this study judged the vibration generated by the pump as the greatest effect on disconnection, and confirmed the vibration effect. And it had a structure that was vulnerable to vibration because of the wire flow space inside the EDV cable connector. After applying the improved adapter, vibration analysis, excitation test, and bending strength test were performed to confirm the effectiveness of design change and improvement. As a result of vibration analysis, the amount of vibration was reduced by about 10 times compared to the existing product, and the strength increased by about 4 times in the bending strength test was confirmed to increase the effect of preventing disconnection due to vibration.

The main hydraulic pump is a device that generates the hydraulic pressure needed for the K2 tank. It is a pressure-compensated swash plate piston pump that generates the hydraulic power necessary to drive the hydraulic device. Hydraulic pump design changes were made due to frequent failures of the hydraulic pump. As a result of checking the operation records of the hydraulic pump, about 71% of the total engine operation time was in a stationary state where hydraulic pressure was not needed. This has the problem of constantly running when the engine is started, consuming unnecessary endurance time, and generating high noise. In this study, ISG(Idle Stop & Go) was applied to improve operation method. When applying ISG, the pressure can be reduced to about 85% or less in an environment where the operation of the main hydraulic pump is not necessary. So, the lifespan of the main hydraulic pump increases as a result of ISG application, thereby reducing the waste of national funds due to maintenance costs. Also, it is expected to contribute to improving combat power by reducing crew fatigue due to noise reduction.

In this study, the operating performance of the heat pump dryer using the PF heat exchanger was experimentally studied. The capacity, COP, drain, SMER and operating status of the cooling cycle of the heat pump dryer were investigated according to the temperature, relative humidity and flow rate of the indoor air. Heat pump dryers are refrigerant-air system. For the dryer performance experiment, an air enthalpy calorimeter was used. From the experimental results, as the temperature, relative humidity, and flow rate of the inlet air increased, the capacity, COP, drain, SMER of the dryer increased. The change in the performance of the dryer was most affected by temperature. The P-h diagram of the cooling system showed that the operation status of the dryer was greatly affected by the indoor temperature. In addition, the SMER of the dryer showed a drying performance of about 3.38 kg/kWh or more within all experimental ranges.

This paper proposes the armored combat bulldozer, essential for amphibious tasks, requires water ingress prevention and submersion capabilities, typically addressed by a centrifugal pump. This study aims to boost the bulldozer's drainage pump efficiency by replacing the traditional aluminum 3-blade impeller with one made of ASA material using 3D printing. Analysis via ANSYS Fluent revealed that the 5-blade impeller increased discharge volume by 19.31% and efficiency by 6.07%, while the 6-blade variant saw a 27.07% increase in discharge volume and 8.81% efficiency improvement. Further scrutiny with ANSYS Static Structure ensured the new impellers' structural integrity and robustness under extreme conditions. This research confirms the potential of 3D printing in enhancing military equipment, demonstrating significant improvements in pump performance and opening paths for advanced manufacturing techniques to meet the demanding needs of combat vehicles.

This study deals with the application of an artificial neural network (ANN) model to predict power consumption for utilizing seawater source heat pumps of recirculating aquaculture system. An integrated dynamic simulation model was constructed using the TRNSYS program to obtain input and output data for the ANN model to predict the power consumption of the recirculating aquaculture system with a heat pump system. Data obtained from the TRNSYS program were analyzed using linear regression, and converted into optimal data necessary for the ANN model through normalization. To optimize the ANN-based power consumption prediction model, the hyper parameters of ANN were determined using the Bayesian optimization. ANN simulation results showed that ANN models with optimized hyper parameters exhibited acceptably high predictive accuracy conforming to ASHRAE standards.

본 연구에서는 육계사에 차열 페인트와 히트펌프의 적용에 따른 내부 온도 변화를 분석 하였다. 이를 위하여 환기율, 환기 방법, 시간별 환기 변화에 따른 실험 조건을 설정하였으며 육 계사 외부 및 내부 기온을 측정하였다. 그 결과, 차열 페인트를 도포한 육계사에서는 최대 1－2°C 실내 기온 상승을 억제하 는 효과가 나타났으며 히트펌프를 가동한 육계사에서는 외기 온도의 영향을 제일 적게 받는 환기율 0%일 때 내부 기온 감소 가 제일 크게 나타났다. 계사 내부의 온도가 외기 온도보다 높 을 경우에는 환기율을 높게 설정하여 환기팬을 이용한 냉방이 더욱 효과적이나 계사 내부 온도가 외기 온도와 유사하거나 낮을 경우에는 히트펌프를 이용하는 것이 가장 효과적일 것으 로 판단된다. 히트펌프 가동 시 외기 온도의 영향이 적은 환기 율을 0%로 설정하였을 때 내부 기온이 가장 큰 폭으로 감소하 였으나 실제 육계사에서는 분진, 이물질, 암모니아 등을 고려 하여 최소환기율 정도로 환기율을 설정한 후 히트펌프를 가동 하는 것이 가장 효율적일 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구는 실험 기 간이 짧아 데이터가 많지 않으며 실제 육계가 사육되고 있는 환경에서 실험을 진행한 것이 아니라는 한계가 있다. 향후 후 속 연구로 실제 닭이 사육되고 있는 환경에서의 히트펌프 효 과 분석과 히트펌프의 전력사용량, 냉방부하, 환기팬 가동시 간 등 다양한 환경인자를 포함한 연구가 진행되어야 할 것으 로 판단된다.

This study deals with the maximum thermal load analysis and optimal capacity determination method of tank culture system for applying seawater source heat pump to save energy and realize zero energy. The location of the fish farm was divided into four sea areas, and the heat load in summer and winter was analyzed, respectively. In addition, two representative methods, the flow-through aquaculture system and the recirculation aquaculture system were reviewed as water treatment methods for fish farms. In addition, the concept of the exchange rate was introduced to obtain the maximum heat load of the fish farms. Finally, power consumption for heat pumps was analyzed in the view point of sea areas, tank capacity, and exchange rate based on the calculated maximum thermal load.

Companies are making design changes by improving product quality and function to succeed while meeting customer requirements continuously. Design changes are changing the product BOM's amount, item, specification, and shape while causing a change in the product's structure. At this time, the problem of inventory exhaustion of parts before design change is a big topic. If the inventory exhaustion fails, the pieces before the design change become unused and are discarded, resulting in a decrease in asset value, and the quality cost of the design change affects the company's profits. Therefore, it is necessary to decide to minimize quality costs while minimizing waste inventory costs at the time of application of design changes. According to the analysis, priorities should be prioritized according to urgency because the quantity of items before the design change affects the applied lead time.

In the present study, to investigate the cooling characteristics of the multi-heat pump with 3 indoor units, 7 indoor unit combinations and 3 setting temperatures are selected to study the cooling characteristics during steady-state operation. The cooling capacity, power consumption, COP, compressor high and low pressure of the heat pump are tested under the cooling standard temperature conditions using an air enthalpy multi-calorimeter. The experimental results show that, except for an operation with an indoor unit capacity of 30% or less, the cooling capacity, power consumption, and compressor operation frequency increase as the capacity of the indoor unit increases and the setting temperature of the indoor unit decreases. COP increases or decreases according to the compressor frequency, and is the best at 50-80% capacity of the indoor unit. As the compressor frequency increases, the compressor outlet pressure increases by about 30%.

Failure to comply with the performance test requirements for the centrifugal pumps at power plants often results in performance dissatisfaction as a result of field tests. This study proposed a method of reducing the uncertainty of the field test results by evaluating the systematic error in the measurement system caused by failure to follow the test requirements using the computational fluid dynamics(CFD) technique. As a result of the evaluation of the systematic error and reflecting it in the performance test data, it was confirmed that the error occurred at a constant rate with respect to the flowrate and that the pump, which showed a difference in performance actually had the same performance.
