Flash evaporation phenomenon is affected by temperature, pressure and water level in the open chamber and Baffle etc. In this study, PIV experiments were conducted to ensured the flow Characteristics in the open chamber, and optimum baffle location and baffle height. Baffle had a considerable effect on the recirculation flow, hydraulic jump and the flow characteristics in the Open chamber, and influence of Reynolds number was insignificant. The optimum baffle height was about h/H=1.5. and optimum baffle location was x/H=1.5 from the inlet of open chamber.

The flow field around baffle located sudden expansion and contraction channel was measured by PIV method and the effect according to height change of baffle built in the flow field was evaluated. The inlet flow velocity and the baffle height influence mutually to the size and flow pattern of the recycle flow of the back of the baffle and the size of the area of the water power jump passing the upper part of the baffle. In case of Reynolds number $Re=4{\times}10^3$, the critical value of baffle height is estimated around h/H=1.6 and there was a decreasing tendency as the inlet flow velocity was increased.

The dynamic load caused by sloshing of internal fluid severely affects the structural and control stabilities of cylindrical liquid containers accelerating vertically. If the sloshing frequency of fluid is near the frequency of control system or the tank structure, large dynamic force and moment act on launching vehicles. For the suppression of such dynamic effects, generally flexible ring-type baffles are employed. In this paper, we perform the numerical analysis to evaluate the dynamic suppression effects of baffle. The parametric analysis is performed with respect to the baffle inner-hole diameter and two different baffle spacing types : equal spacing with respect to the tank and one with respect to the fluid height. The ALE (arbitrary Lagrangin-Eulerian) numerical method is adopted for the accurate and effective simulation of the hydrodynamic interaction between fluid and elastic structure.

This paper deals with the FE analysis for the free vibration of sloshing in horizontal cylindrical tank with baffles. We use Laplace equation based on potential theory as governing equation. This problem is solved by FEM using lineal isoparametric elements. We assume that the tank as well as baffles is rigid body and by separating nodes into two at the baffle location, baffle effect is obtained by separating nodes into two at the baffle location. For the calculation of natural frequencies and mode shapes, we introduce Lanczos transformation and Jacobi iteration methods. Numerical results of the first longitudinal and transverse modes, while comparing with literature cited, are very good. In order for the baffle effects on the free vibration of sloshing, various combinations of baffle parameters, which are location, inner diameter and number, are examined.

Flow behaviors of the open channel type flow with its geometric boundary conditions being similar to that of the Multi-Stage-Flash evaporator were studied qualitatively by measuring the velocity distribution. Without a baffle, the flow was in the shape of a simple submerged plane wall jet. At the downstream of this flow, the jet boundary made sharp curve toward the free surface ; this is because the entrainment of the ambient liquid is restricted by the free surface boundary, similar to the Coanda effect. According to the experimental results the level of the free surface appeared to be the most important parameter. The flow with a baffle was in much complicated shape ; especially the recirculating region at the downstream free surface was detected according to the experimental conditions imposed. Inlet liquid velocity, heights of the liquid level and the baffle, and the opening heights of sluice gate of the entrance were the most important parameters in the baffle flow.

The pale chub (Zacco platypus) is a dominant species that migrates locally and inhabits in rivers in Korea. The fish movement at confluences or hydraulic connections is very important especially for the life of small fish as pale chub. If main stream and off-channel habitats are connected with culverts, they would restrict the fish movement due to the high flow velocities and low depths. In foreign conturies, design flow conditions of fish friendly culvert, including flood flow capacity and fish-passage flow capacity, were assigned. Installation of culvert fishways is one way to improve the fish-passing capacity of culverts. On the contrary, in Korea, the design flow of culvert contains only the flood flow capacity. The effect of the fish passage with offset baffles was tested with the fixed velocity method in an experimental flume. As a result, An occasion velocity 1.2m/s, proportional success of pale chubs pass is maximum 20% improve than without baffle flume for energy dissipate. Offset baffle fishway(baffle height 5cm) provides that resting areas and/or a continuous channel of low velocity water in culverts. Especially, short baffle areas are domain where the pale chubs pass. And, FLOW-3D, a three dimentional numerical model, was used in order to evaluate detailed hydraulic characteristics and application possibility in a culvert fishway design.

This study aims at investigating the effect of the baffle height on the liquid sloshing in the three-dimensional (3D) rectangular tank. In order to simulate the 3D incompressible viscous two-phase flow in the 3D tank with partially filled liquid, the present study has adopted the volume of fluid (VOF) method based on the finite-volume method which has been well verified by comparing with the results of the relevant previous researches. The ratio of the baffle height ($h_B$) to filling level (h) has been changed in the range of $0{\leq}h_B/h{\leq}1.2$ to observe the effect on the impact loads on the side wall and free surface behavior. Generally, as baffle height increases, the impact pressure on the wall decreases and the deformation of free surface becomes weaker. However it seemed that a critical ratio of the baffle height existed to reveal the lowest impact pressure on the wall. Consequently, $h_B/h=0.8$ among $h_B/hs$ considered in the study showed the lowest impact pressure.

A numerical work was performed to study the flow behaviors of the open channel type flow with its geometric boundary conditions being similar to that of the Multi-Stage-Flash evaporator with and without a baffle. For the analysis, two-dimensional steady turbulent flow was assumed and the widely known k-.epsilon. turbulence model was usded. SIMPLE algorithm and the power difference scheme were used for the numerical approach. Numerical results generally agree with the previous experimental results though there are some uncertainties at far downstream and near the free surface due to the three dimensionality of the flow and surface waves. Without a baffle, the flow has basically the shape of the submerged plane wall jet with its upper boundary at downstream being sharply curved toward the free surface. For the flow with a baffle, recirculation flow patterns are observed at the upper inlet portion and at the backside of the baffle. For the case without a baffle, it was also confirmed that the ratio between the liquid level and the gate opening height is the most important parameter to determine the flow behavior.

크라이오 워터펌프(CWP)는 크라이오 펌프(CP)와 달리 10 K 활성탄 어레이는 장착하지 않고 100 K 정도로 냉각시킨 배플만을 사용하여 물의 배기속도를 최적화 하는 데 초점을 맞춘 진공펌프다. 용기 압력이 10-9 mbar 대가 될 때까지는 잔류기체의 90% 이상이 수분이므로 다른 기체들의 배기 보다는 물을 잘 배기하는 것이 배기시간을 단축하고 도달 진공도를 낮추는 첩경이라는 아이디어에 근거를 두고 있다. CWP는 물 흡착확률을 거의 1에 가깝게 만들어서 오리피스 컨덕턴스에 육박하는 이상적인 펌프를 제작할 수 있지만 용도상 직부형(close type), 통과형(in-line type) 및 내장형(in-vessel type) 등 세 가지 다른 형태에 따라 성능도 약간씩 다르다. CWP는 모든 기체에 반응하는 정통적인 CP에 비해 훨씬 간단하고 저렴하게 만들 수 있으면서도 진공 시스템에 큰 영향을 미칠 수 있지만 물 이외의 기체들을 배기할 펌프가 필요하다는 측면에서 활용에 제약이 있다. 만일 TMP를 이미 사용하고 있거나 작은 TMP를 추가로 달아서 충분히 작동이 가능한 시스템이면서 수분 발생이 많은 곳이나, 또 활성탄의 오염이나 산소 분위기 등 CP 투입이 꺼려지는 환경이라면 CWP 사용이 좋은 선택이 될 수 있다. CWP의 물 배기용량은 CP의 알곤이나 질소 배기용량에 준하는 크기로 0.5g/cm2 이상임이 실험적으로 입증되었다. 따라서 일반적인 상황에서 정상 작동시 대부분의 기체는 TMP로 배출하고 잔류 수분만 포집하므로 CP처럼 주기적인 재생이 필요 없다. 필요하다면 CWP는 금속 표면에 응축된 물을 드라이펌프 작동만으로 쉽게 제거할 수 있고 혹시 오염 물질이 붙어도 세척이 용이하다. 이런 사용상 융통성과 여러 가지 장점에도 불구하고 그동안 물배기에 대한 인식이 미흡하고, 또 부수적이고 추가적인 비용이 드는 것으로 생각되어 주목을 받지 못했지만 디스플레이와 반도체 산업을 필두로 물 분압을 낮추고 생산수율을 높이는 것에 점점 더 관심이 높아지면서 CWP에 대한 수요도 높아지고 있다. 본 보고에서는 20인치 통과형 CWP를 만들고 14인치 TMP에 얹어 복합 진공배기시스템을 구성한 후 물 배기속도와 알곤, 질소 및 수소 배기속도를 측정하고 예측치와 비교했다. 아울러 물 배기용량 측정 및 CWP의 온도제어와 펌프재생 특성 평가 결과도 정리했다.
