The wear on engine valve and seat insert is one of the most important factors affecting engine performance. The engine valve and seat insert must be able to withstand the severe environment that is created by: high temperature exhaust gases generated while the engine is running, rapid movement of the valve spring, high pressure generated in the explosive process. In order to study such problems, a simulator has been developed to generate and control high temperatures and various speeds during motion. The wear simulator is considered to be a valid simulation of the engine valve and seat insert wear process with various speeds during engine activity. This work focused on the test of various degrees of wear on four different exhaust valve materials such as HRV40, HRV40-FNV (face nitrided valve), STL #32, STL #6,. Throughout all tests performed in this study, the outer surface temperature of the seat insert was controlled at $350^{\circ}C$, the cycle number was $4.0{\times}10^6$, the test load was 6860 N, the fuel was LPG the test speed was 20 Hz (2400 RPM) and the seat insert material was HVS1-2. The mean (standard deviation) maximum roughness of the exhaust valve and seat insert was $25.44\;(3.16)\;{\mu}m$ and $27.53\;(3.60)\;{\mu}m$ at the HRV40, $21.58\;(2.38)\;{\mu}m$ and $25.94\;(3.07)\;{\mu}m$ at the HRV40-FNV, $36.73\;(8.98)\;{\mu}m$ and $61.38\;(7.84)\;{\mu}m$ at the STL #32, $73.64\;(23.80)\;{\mu}m$ and $60.80\;(13.49)\;{\mu}m$ at the STL #6, respectively. It was discovered that the maximum roughness of exhaust valve was lower as the high temperature hardness of the valve material was higher under the same test conditions such as temperature, test speed, cycle number, test load and seat insert material. The set of the HRV40-FNV exhaust valve and the HVS1-2 seat insert showed the best wear resistance.

The Present study analyzed the pressure-flow characteristics of a Korean shunt valve. Changes in the characteristic currie depending on the design parameters were also investigated. The Korean shunt valve used in the present study was constant pressure type and our analyses were validated through experiments. We applied fluid-structure interaction to solve the flow dynamic Problem because the small diaphragm in the valve was made from flexible silicone elastomers. Considering the material nonlinearity of the hyper-elastic material. the Mooney-Rivlin approximation was employed. The results of the numerical analyses were close to the experimental results The major Pressure drop was observed to happen in the small diaphragm. The slope of the pressure-flow characteristic curve was computed to be 0.37mm$H_2O$.hr/cc, which was similar to the average value of commercial shunt valves. 0.40mm$H_2O$.hr/cc. Therefore. our valves analyzed in the Present study showed a Proper Pressure control characteristics of the constant pressure type shunt valves. The opening pressure could be controlled by adjusting the amount of predeflection of the valve diaphragm. In order to obtain opening pressures of 25mm$H_2O$ and 80mm$H_2O$, respectively, and the required predeflection was found to be 10.2$\mu$m and 35.3$\mu$m. The flow orifice size was found to be within 10$\mu$m during valve operation Therefore, Precision design and manufacturing techniques are necessary for successful operations of the shunt valve. The study indicated the amount of predeflection as well as the magnitude of corner rounding of the diaphragm edge are important design parameters to influence the slope of the pressure-flow characteristic curve.

The structural analyses and experimental results for the bellows of a gas-generator liquid oxygen shut-off valve were presented. The bellows experiences axial compression and external high pressure loadings at cryogenic temperatures. The analyses were performed using EJMA (Expansion Joint Manufacturing Association) standard and the commercial FE (finite element) analysis program, Abaqus v6.9, at room and cryogenic temperatures. The spring modulus, the induced stress and the expected fatigue life of the bellows were compared respectively. The effects by the contact and the material plasticity on the FE analysis results were also analyzed. Also, FE analyses related to a burst test were presented.

Natural gas fuel has known to be very promising in terms of abundancy and economic value. Therefore it is widely treated as research topics in a variety field of production, storage and utilization. Natural gas has become one of the major sources for the power generation by using internal combustion engines(ICE). Development of natural gas fuel injection device should be preceded to realize a reliable natural gas fuel supply system for a MW class power generation reciprocating ICE. In this research, an injection valve which consists of solenoid and body part with a moving plate was designed and its dynamic performance was experimented in the engine-like environment. Displacement length and diameter of an armature and diameter of a solenoid coil were tested at former study. In this research the effect of materials of solenoid core, size of main housing inlet and supply gas pressure are examined.

In this paper, an application example for fitness-for-service of material is shown. A kind of instrument valve is made of austenitic stainless steel fabricated by the cold working process. The tensile strength of the cold worked austenitic stainless steel has to be limited under 90 ksi to prevent the stress corrosion cracking in power plants. In industrial fields, tensile strengths of some materials were discovered to be over the regulation requirements in a certified material test report (CMTR). Owner's verification tests were performed to compare with that in a CMTR and to check the appropriateness. It is found that, in the case of verification test under the required test speed, valve materials could be used in the field. Although it is only one application sample of material check process in the power generation site, this case study could show an importance of basic experimental technology in academia and research circles.

CCS(Carbon Capture and Storage) which is technic to capture and storage the carbon-dioxide is the method that reduces the carbon-dioxide from the industries to prevent earth from the global warming. In order to apply to the practical site, it is inevitable to investigate the possibility of damage in the pipe or components by carbon-dioxide. In this paper, the immersion test is performed to estimate the suitability of the rubber which is used to seal or connect the pipelines because the rubber has not been validated. Also, the immersion test is carried out in a certain condition(pre- and supercritical state).

원자력 발전소의 안전성 보장 및 신뢰성 향상을 위하여 시운전 단계에서 원자력 발전소내 안전등급에 해당하는 배관계통의 상태 확인을 위하여 각종시험을 하도록 되어있다. 특히 새로운 설계기념, 크기 또는 용량을 갖는 원자로 모델에 대해서는 필수적으로 건전성 평가를 하게 되었다. 이를 위해 발전소 건설기간에 시행하는 고온 기능시험 중에 원자로 주변 주요 시스템인 원자로 냉각재 루프 계통에 대한 건전성 확인을 위해 압전형 고온 가속도 센서를 이용하여 정상운전상태의 진동을 측정하여 시스템 진동거동을 규명하였다. 배관시스템의 일상운전상태는 유체의 흐름과 기기운전이 일정한 정상상태와 펌프의 기동 또는 정지 및 밸브의 급격한 개폐등으로 발생하는 과도상태로 나눌 수 있다. 따라서 두 가지 상태의 진동을 측정해야 한다. 배관계통은 정상운전 상태로 설계수명을 유지할 수 있어야 하므로 정상진도잉 최소화 되어야 한다. 진동 평가기준은 배관재질의 응력(S/N 커브) 곡선을 참조하여 설계수명내에 손상이 일어나지 않도록 재료의 허용응력을 산정하고 이를 진동변위로 환산하여 정한 것이며 이 값에 측정 데이타를 비교하여 1차계통 배관의 건전성을 확인하였다.

저진공 펌프 제작시 ISO, AVS 등의 국제규격에 ？춤은 필수이고, 도달진공도, 압력구간별·가스별 배기속도, 소음, 기름증기 역류, 압축비 등이 이에 해당된다. 큰 체적의 시험용기가 구비되어 있지 않은 경우에는 배기감압법 대신 일정유량 Q를 흘려 시험용기내에 일정압력 P를 유지시키면서 배기속도를 S=Q/P식으로 구하는 일정압력법을 사용한다. 이 실험은 800~2000 l/min급 유회전 펌프와 드라이 펌프로 압력별 배기속도를 측정, 분석하여 평가방법을 수립하였다. 또 국가 유량 표준기인 sonic nozzle을 reference로 하여, 기존의 유량측정 장비와의 오차를 비교하였다. 온도 상승도를 측정, 압력과의 상관관계를 비교하였고, 오차가 적은 CDG(1, 10, 100torr)를 사용하여, 압력측정의 정확도를 높였다. 비교적 outgassing이 적은 SUS 재질의 chamber를 썼고, 유량조절 장치로 미세누출밸브를 사용하였다.
