In this paper, the correlation of Pressure drop about the Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluid was investigated experimentally for vibrating intravascular lung assist device (VIVLAD) and we determined correlation equation to make a prediction about Pressure drop for designing VIVLAD. Design conditions to predict the pressure drop of the modules were studied through an experimental modeling before inserting the artificial lung assist device into as venous. Experiments were performed by distilled water, glycerol/water mixed solution(40% glycerol) of Newtonian fluids. and the bovine blood of non-Newtonian fluids. These fluids were flowed outside and parallel of hollow fiber membranes. Also we measured pressure drop according to the number of the fiber membranes which ware inserted into the inside diameter of shell of 3 cm, and developed the prediction equations by curve fitting method based on correlation between the experimental pressure drop and the frontal area or the packing density of device. The result showed that the Pressure drop and the friction factor of the water/glycerol mixed solution were similar to that of bovine blood. It was showed that the water/glycerol mixed solution (40% glycerol) could be used for measuring the pressure drop and the friction factor instead of the bovine blood. Also, we could estimate the prediction equation of pressure drop and friction factor as the function of Packing density at the number of hollow fibers. We obtained the reliance of the prediction equations because the pressure drop and the friction factor measured from the experiments were similar to that from the prediction equation. These results may be used to further usefulness for the design of VIVLAD.

Since the advent of turbojet aircraft with their greater weight and high landing speed breaking performance on runway surface has become un critical. Under certain weather conditions(wet weather, winter) hydroplaning or unacceptable loss of traction can occur, resulting in poor braking performance and possible loss of directional control. To address this concern a number of research project me conducted by NASA, FAA, USAF. The various method which was reported the advantage of the increasing the friction and decreasing the hydroplaning effect. A-2 section of inchon international airport was grooved using drying grooving method. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the dry grooving method the surface was spray with water and measured the fiction factor and the depth of the water using Mu meter and water depth measuring device. The field test results shooed that the fiction factor nos increased and the depth of the water decreased. The dry grooving method illustrated the reduction of hydroplaning and also, no distress on the runway.

A mathematical model for predicting the liquid circulation velocity in an airlift reactor was developed based on the mechanical energy balance of the fluid circulation loop. The model considered the energy loss due to a 90° turn, the energy loss due to friction, and the energy loss due to the change in cross-sectional area at each part of the reactor. The model that separately considered the loss coefficients related to friction, direction change, and cross-sectional area change was able to predict the liquid circulation velocity better than the previous model using lumped parameters. The liquid circulation velocity was measured by the tracer pulse method. Most of our experimental results obtained in external-loop airlift reactors, which had the top and bottom connecting pipes, as well as other investigators' results obtained in various types of airlift reactors, were well predicted by the developed model with an error within 20%. Useful empirical equations for the loss coefficient related to the 90° turn of the circulating fluid were obtained in external and internal-loop airlift reactors and used to predict the liquid circulation velocity.

The wear characteristics of $SiC_f$/SiC composites were evaluated according to the alignment direction of the fibers, and the elastic wave-generated friction was detected and analyzed in wearing. The friction coefficient and wear loss were similar in the longitudinal and the transverse direction of the fibers. However, these values were lower in the vertical direction of the fibers because of the brittle nature of the fiber. The friction coefficient and the wear loss were directly proportional to each other. The dominant frequencies were 58.6 kHz for monolithic SiC and 117.2 and 136.7 kHz for $SiC_f$/SiC composites, respectively.

우리나라의 농가에서 운반용으로 사용되고 있는 동력경운기와 트랙터 등의 트레일러는 현가장치와 방진장치가 없는 것이 대부분이다. 이런 트레일러를 비포장 된 과수원 등의 농장에서 과채류를 포장되지 않은 상태로 적재물이 트레일러의 바닥에 깔린 채 소량을 적재한 상태로 저속으로 운송될 때 충격, 진동, 마찰 등으로 많은 수송 손실이 예상된다. 이런 수송손실을 줄이기 위해서는 트레일러에 전달되는 진동을 줄여야 한다. (중략)

Generally, the total ventilation resistance coefficient in a tunnel consists of inlet/outlet loss coefficient, wall friction coefficient, and other loss coefficient caused by sudden expansion and contraction of cross-section, etc. For the tunnel before opening, when the running ventilation fan is stopped, the wind speed in the tunnel is reduced by the total ventilation resistance drag. The velocity decay method is comparatively stable and easy to estimate the wall friction coefficient in the pre-opening tunnel. However, the existing study reported that when the converging wind speed is a negative value after the ventilation fan stops, it is difficult to estimate the wall friction coefficient according to the velocity decay method. On the other hand, for the operating tunnel in which the piston effect acts, a more complex process is performed; however, a reasonable wall friction coefficient can be estimated. This paper aims at suggesting a method to minimize the measurement variables of the piston effect and reviewing a method that can be applied to the operating tunnel. Also, in this study, a new method has been developed, which enables to calculate an variation of the piston effect if the piston effect is constant with a sudden change of external natural wind occurring while the wind speed in the tunnel decreases after the ventilation fan stops, and a programming logic has been also developed, which enables dynamic simulation analysis in order to estimate the wall friction coefficient in a tunnel.

자동차의 설계 및 재질의 변경을 통한 연비향상이 지속적으로 진행되고 있는 가운데 최근 엔진유의 지점도화를 통한 연비향상이 주목되고 있다. 엔진유를 통한 연비향상에는 저점도화를 통한 유체윤활영역에서의 마찰손실 감소와 저마찰첨가제의 사용을 통한 방법이 있는데, 최근 저마찰형으로 설계된 엔진에서는 후자보다는 전자의 효과가 큰 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나, 저점도화에 따른 문제점도 수반되는 바, 엔진유의 설계시 윤활기유의 선택 및 첨가제의 처방의 주의하여야만 한다. 현재 국내에서는 10W/30 및 10W/40이 주종이지만 향후 연비향상에의 요구에 부응하고 가혹해질 ILSAC 규격을 만족하는 제품개발을 위해서는 고성능기유를 조속히 확보할 필요가 있다. 본고에서는 최근 개발되고 있는 VHVI기유의 사용을 통하여 가솔린엔진유를 고성능화하고자 수행한 연구개발과정에서 얻어진 결과를 보고하고자 한다.

A friction tester to measure friction force generated at the interface between the piston ring and the cylinder liner was developed. Modified piston ring is bar-shaped and 100mm long. Surface of the modified piston ring is machined by the profile grinding machine to be formed as a shape of an arc of a circle. Measured data are treated as mean effective friction force and power loss. From this test it can be confirmed that friction force is deeply affected by surface shape of the piston ring and viscosity of supplied oil. Friction force is deeply affected by surface shape of the piston ring and viscosity of supplied oil. Friction force is decreased and power loss is increased with increasing velocity. And it is known that region of mixed lubrication is broader than estimated with theoretical analysis. it is expected that this tester can be used as the optimization tool of the surface shape of the piston ring at the first stage of development of the piston rings.

A theoretically based prediction for the determination of the subchannel friction factor at low pitch to the rod diameter ratio (P/D < 1.2) in the bare rod bundle flow has been developed. The present model assumes the validity of the Law of Wall over the entire flow area. The algebraic form of the Law of the Wall is integrated over the entire flow area and the local friction velocity variation along the rod periphery is considered in this study. The present method is applied to the rod bundles with P/D < 1.2, and the prediction results show good agreement with the available experimental data.

일반적으로 계획 또는 설계 단계에서 수행되고 있는 관거 시설의 수리계산에는 연결관 내에서의 마찰손실만을 감안하여 수행하고 있으며, 맨홀에서의 에너지 손실은 고려되지 않는 실정이다. 그러나 연결관 내부와 맨홀의 내부는 여러 가지 수리학적 조건이 다르므로 에너지 손실이 발생하게 된다. 더욱이 직선으로 연결된 중간맨홀보다 두 개의 유입관과 한 개의 유출관으로 구성된 합류맨홀은 연결 구조상 유수교란에 의한 에너지 손실이 커질 것으로 예상됨에도 불구하고 현재 실무에서 우수 배수시설의 설계 시 직선 연결맨홀과 합류맨홀의 손실을 구별하지 않고 사용하고 있는 실정이다. 그러므로 합류맨홀에서 우수 관거 시스템의 우수 배제 능력을 증가시켜 도심지의 침수를 방지하기 위한 관거시설의 적정 설계 기준이 필요하며, 합리적인 설계 기준을 제시하기 위하여 합류 맨홀 내에서의 수두 손실을 분석할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 수리 모형 실험의 물질적, 시간적 한계를 극복하기 위하여 일반적으로 3차원 유체거동의 특성분석에 많이 사용되는 Fluent 6.3 모형을 이용하여 과부하 합류 맨홀에서의 흐름특성을 수치모의 하였으며, 맨홀 내 손실수두의 변화를 계산하여 손실계수를 산정하였다. 계산된 손실계수는 수리모형 실험을 통하여 산정된 손실계수와 비교하였다. 또한 동일한 수치모의 해석 조건을 실제 합류맨홀에 적용하여 실제 합류 맨홀의 규모 변화에 따른 손실계수를 산정하였다. 수치모형의 적용 결과 맨홀 내에서의 유속변화, 수심변화 및 압력변화에 대해서는 수리모형 실험 결과와 유사한 경향을 나타내고 있으며, 수치모형에 의하여 산정된 합류 맨홀에서의 손실계수 값과 수리모형에 의하여 산정된 손실계수 값이 거의 유사하게 나타났다. 또한 동일한 수치모의 해석 조건을 실제 합류맨홀에 적용하여 합류맨홀의 규모 변화에 따른 손실계수를 산정하였으며, 산정된 손실계수는 우수관거 시스템의 설계 및 평가에 사용가능하리라 판단된다.
