Hydrodynamic similarity was investigated in pressurized three-phase slurry bubble columns by selecting the bubble holdup and pressure drop as objective functions, for the effective design and scale-up of it. In addition, effects of operating variables on the bubble holdup with variation of column diameter were also analyzed. Gas velocity($U_G$), viscosity(${\mu}_{SL,eff}$) and surface tension(${\rho}_{SL}$) of slurry phase, density difference between the slurry and gas phases(${\rho}_{SL}-{\rho}_G$) depending on the operating pressure, pressure drop per unit length(${\Delta}P/L$), column diameter(D) and gravitational acceleration(g) were chosen as governing parameters in determining the bubble holdup and pressure drop in the column. From the dimensional analysis, four kinds of dimensionless groups were derived from the 7 parameters and 4 fundamental dimensions. Effects of dimensionless groups such as Reynolds, Froude and Weber numbers on the bubble holdup in the column were discussed. The pressure drop and bubble holdup could be predicted from the correlation of dimensionless groups effectively, which could be used as useful information for the design and scale-up of pressurized slurry bubble columns.

This study was conducted to investigate the amount of fat, vitamins and minerals in milk can be affected by hydrodynamic cavitation since cavitation is recently focused on as one of the sterilization methods. Vitamins (vitamin A, $B_2$), minerals (Ca, P, Mg, Zn) and fat contents were measured according to Ministry of Food and Drug Safety's Processing Standards and Component Specifications of Animal Product. Vitamin A & $B_2$ contents decreased approximately 23% & 19%, respectively after cavitation. Minerals content showed no change after cavitation. Also, P and Mg contents were reduced after cavitation to 2 mg/100g and 0.1 mg/100g, showing no change. Milk fat content was 3.46% before cavitation and 3.41% after cavitation, displaying no difference. Hydrodynamic cavitation process displays a possibility to replace existing pasteurizing method, as it does not change vitamin or mineral contents in milk. Therefore, a more clear and systematic research on hydrodynamic cavitation pasteurization is needed to distribute excellent quality milk and to emphasize physiochemical properties and quality change of existing heat pasteurization process.

난류혼합율에 대한 예측은 원자로의 노심 열수력 설계에 있어 매우 중요한 일이다. 봉다발 구조에서 난류혼합의 주요 원인으로 지목되고 있는 유동액동(flow pulsation) 현상에 대한 척도평가(scale analysis)틀 통해 봉다발 유동장을 흐르는 저 Prandtl 수 유채에 대판 난류혼합율 평가식을 유도하였다. 난류혼합에 기여하는 인자가 분자운동, 등방성 난류운동(유동맥동 효과률 배제한 난류운동), 그리고 유동맥동의 세 부분으로 구성되어 있다고 가정하고, 각각에 대한 길이 및 속도척도를 평가하여 난류혼합율을 유도하였다. 평가식에는 P/D, Re수 P${\gamma}$ 수 등의 인자가 고려되어 있어 다양한 기하학적, 수력학적 조건과 유체의 물리적 특성이 반영되어 있다. 유도원 난류혼합율 평가식을 실험 상관식과 비교하였으며, 비교 결과 만족스러운 것으로 나타났다.

This experimental study is aimed at evaluating the hydrodynamic performance of newly designed self-expandable graft stents under steady flow condition. Two graft stents with different coating materials and a bare TiNi metallic stent for comparison test were used in the experiment. Pressure variation and velocity distribution at the upstream and downstream of the stents were measured at flow rates of 5, 10, and 15 l/min, respectively. Pressure loss due to insertion of the stent increased with increasing flow rate exponentially as expected. At a flow rate of 15 l/min, pressure loss of Polyure-thane(PU)-coated graft stent was 6 times higher than that of TiNi metallic stent, while the pressure loss of a porous Polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE)-coated graft stent was comparable to a bare TiNi metallic stent. Velocity profiles of the porous PTFE-coated graft stent were similar to those of a bare TiNi metallic stent regardless of flow rate. Furthermore, the velocity profile of PU-coated graft stent revealed an asymmetrical and relatively low central velocity at a higher flow rate than 10 1/min, expecially, where the effects resulted in increases of wall shear stress and normal stress. The worse hydrodynamic behavior of PU-coated graft stent than the other two stents might be attributed to formation of folds due to poor flexibility of coated material when inserting the graft stent into the pipe with a more smaller size, which later gave rise non-symmetry of flow area, increase of surface roughness and jet flow via the crevice between the stent and cylinder wall.

Hydraulic mounts show strong1y frequency-dependent stiffness and damping characteristics in low frequency range, which result from so called inertia track dynamics. A lumped mass has been incorporated in several mechanical models of the literature to take the inertia effect of the fluid in the track into consideration. Although complex s%illness by the mechanical model showed good agreements with the measured values, there exists a critical pitfall. In this paper, the shortcomings of mechanical models with lumped mass for hydraulic founts are clearly identified by illustrating actual measurements of the stiffness parameters for a hydraulic mount. It is conclusively discussed that the inertia effect of the fluid flow through the circular track is significant but latent. As an alternative to the mechanical model, a hydraulic model is claimed to be used for further dynamic analysis of engine/mount system or whole car system.

Among many other alternative energy resources, small scale hydropower has been brought into attention as a reliable source of energy today, which had been relatively neglected since 1960s. Present low head of Francis turbines and small scale hydroturbines, however, have limitations in the minimum required head and flow rate for efficient operation. This study attempts to develope the Francis turbine which is expected to run efficiently even in very low head and small flow rate, so that the limitations on the conventional small scale hydropower could alleviated and competition with other alternative energy sources in the changable design conditions could attained. The Francis turbine of a new concept was designed based on changable design conditions, hydrodynamics and theory of power transmission. The result of the study shows that two stages runner is more efficient, cheaper in construction, faster responding, and easier maintaining than single stage runner of Francis turbine

The Kaplan turbine model has been tested and analyzed. The blade angle and the guide vane opening of the turbine model were designed to be varied according to the best combination of guide vane and runner blade opening. When the changes in head and output were comparatively large, the efficiency drop were small, so the efficiency characteristics and stability of the entire operating condition were maintained in good condition. These results showed that the developed model in this study will be suitable for small hydro power stations with large changes in head and load.
