When the hot water is supplied through the district heating (DH) pipeline, a pressure differential control valve (PDCV) protects the DH user equipment from the high pressure DH water and helps to supply DH water to long distance. It also controls the temperature and adjust the pressure in the main district heating pipeline. However, cavitation occurs in PDCV due to the use of high pressure DH water. It causes frequent failures and many problems. It also causes energy loss and complaints to both operators and users. In order to solve these problems, we will introduce the energy saving technology to replace the primary side PDCV with hydraulic turbine, convert the differential pressure into electricity, and utilize electricity as the power of the secondary side pump.

In this study, we analyze the characteristic of burning classified by a propellant according to a flux of an oxidizer to analyze propellant regression distance in accordance with a thrust control and burning time of hybrid rocket using hybrid combustor of Lab-Scale. To control a flux of an oxidizer, we design flow control system to regulate the mount of opening and shutting of a needle valve by a driving of stepping motor by a combination the needle valve with stepping motor. We derive the relationships between mass flow rate and regression rate according to a propellant through the oxidizer flux change. While doing the thrust control, we estimate regression distance through the oxidizer flux in accordance with thrust and confirm the creditability through the actual thrust control burning experimentation.

In this study, flow characteristics of a small-sized butterfly valve with the valve disk diameter of 25.4 mm have been investigated experimentally for the valve closed angles. In order to examine the flow characteristics of the butterfly valve, loss coefficient (Kv) was obtained at the valve closed angles of 0$^{\circ}$, 5$^{\circ}$, 10$^{\circ}$, 20$^{\circ}$ and 30$^{\circ}$. In addition, the effects of the valve disk edge shape were examined. As the result of the experiment, the maximum loss coefficient (Kvmax) was decreased with the increase of the valve closed angle, and it had the maximum decrease ratio at the valve disk angles of 0$^{\circ}$~5$^{\circ}$. The valve disk edge shape have an effect on the loss coefficient of the valve around the small valve closed angle.

콘트롤밸브는 지역 냉${\cdot}$난방 및 APT, 대형 빌딩의 냉온수, 중온수 및 공조배관 시스템에 사용되어 유체적 바란스를 이루는데 사용된다. 이와같이 유체의 흐름을 조절하기 위하여 사용되는 콘트롤 밸브가 때로는 소음 문제를 일으키기도 한다. 최근 들어 밸브의 소음이 문제가 되는 경우가 빈번해 지고 있다. 밸브의 기본적 기능을 충족시키기 위해서는 영구적인 수두 손실이 필요하며 이러한 수두손실을 발생시키는 과정에서 유체 흐름에 의해 발생한 난류가 커다란 밸브 소음을 유발하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 콘트롤 밸브 소음 특성 평가 방법을 검토하였다. 밸브 및 배관으로 이루어진 시스템에서 발생되는 소음을 예측하는 절차를 살펴보았다. 밸브의 음향 파워레벨을 측정하고 유량 및 차압의 변화에 따른 소음 예측식을 결정 하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 밸브 소음 측정 방법은 새로운 밸브의 소음특성 평가, 밸브 소음의 예측 그리고 서로 다른 밸브 사이의 성능비교 등에 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

Fuel shutoff valve of a gas generator controls propellant mass flowrate of a rocket engine, by using pilot pressure and spring force. The developing fuel shutoff valve can be self sustained even though pilot pressure is removed in an actuator. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the characteristics of the forces with respect to the opening and closing of the valve in order to evaluate its performance. In light of this, the valve has been designed to adjust the control pressure for the opening of the poppet and to determine the working fluid pressure at which the valve starts to close. This paper also has been designed dynamic model using the AMESim and predicted flow coefficient of the valve by Fluent CFD analysis. Various results from the prediction and the analysis have been compared with experiments. Finally, dynamic characteristics of the valve have been verified with experimental results.

The valves used to control or shut off the flow through a pipeline can be divided into many different types, including gate valves, globe valves, and check valves. Globe valves, in particular, have excellent properties, and because they can easily control the flow under high-pressure conditions, they are generally used in LNG ship and steam pipelines. In this paper, a method for changing the shape of a seat was suggested to solve the valve leakage problem from a structural perspective. In addition, the stress distribution and directional deformation were compared for each model. The suggested models were thus validated, and the optimized seat structure, which includes a self-supporting capability for decreasing the amount of leakage, was determined.

After reviewing previous work done on two piezoelectric thin films(PZT, ZnO), ZnO thin piezofim of 1-3UM is fabricated by sputtering on the different substrates(i. e., P+Si/N-Si, SiO2/P+Si/ N-Si, Al/SiO2/ P+Si/ N+Si). The result shows that ZnO piezofilm on the Al has the best c-axis orientation. One of applications for the ZnO piezofilm as an microvalve to control liquid flow is introduced, and which can be controlled electrically and remotely.

Freshwater may be injected into aquifers to combat sea water intrusion in groundwater or to store water for later retrieval. For these cases to achieve the desired goal groundwater modeling is commonly used to determine locations and rates of injection wells. When these wells are connected to a pipe network, a flow control valve is installed for each well to regulate the injection rate. When a valve opening is modified, pressure changes in the entire pipe network and thereby changes flow rates in other wells. Therefore, desired valve openings must be determined for all injection wells. The pipe flow analysis allows estimation of the minimum pump power in addition to valve openings. Methods are developed to identify valve openings for multiple wells and the minimum pump power. The methodology developed in this work can contribute to precise operation of multiple injection wells.
