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.

많은 건설사업장의 경우 토사 유출에 따른 고농도 탁수가 발생하며, 그 탁도를 낮추기 위해 침전지 혹은 토사탈수백 등의 Best Management Practices(BMPs)를 이용한다. 본 연구에서는 유입되는 탁수에 고분자응집제인 polyacrylamide(PAM)를 액상으로 주입하고, 침전지와 토사탈수백을 통해 탁도를 저감하는 field-scale 실험을 수행하였다. 일반적으로 침전지 중간에는 유입되는 물의 힘을 분산시키기 위해 배플이라는 구조물이 설치되는데, 본 연구결과에 따르면 PAM을 통한 화학적 처리 없이 배플 자체로는 탁도를 낮추는 데 그 효과가 낮았으나, PAM주입을 할 경우 배플 설치 여부에 상관없이 90-98%까지 방류수 탁도를 낮출 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 침사지 이후에 설치한 토사탈수 백은 그 효과가 낮았으나, 침사지 없이 토사탈수백만 사용할 경우 PAM을 이용한 화학적 처리 없이는 만족할 만한 방류수 탁도를 기대하기 어려웠다. 본 연구결과는 향후 미국에서 면적 10에이커 이상의 공사현장에 적용되는 탁도 규제에 대한 대응 방안으로 PAM을 이용한 탁수 처리의 효용성을 보여준다.

The influent and effluent baffle configurations seriously affect the hydraulic characteristics of the secondary clarifier in wastewater treatment plant. In this study, those baffle configurations were optimized by computational fluid dynamics(CFD) analysis and particle image velocity(PIV) test in order to obtain uniform flow in inlet region and to minimize upflow velocity in outlet region of the secondary clarifier. Theoretical analysis using CFD showed that more uniform flow could be accomplished when the influent baffle was located closely to the inlet opening. Effects of effluent baffle configuration on the upflow velocity in the outlet region of the secondary clarifier were analyzed with four types of effluent baffles which are widely adopted for secondary clarifier design. From the CFD analysis, McKinney baffle(EB-2) was estimated to be the most effective for restraining the upflow velocity in the outlet region and these trends were identified by PIV tests. In addition, the McKinney baffle showed the most uniform overflow velocity distribution around the weir.

Turbulent flow and combustion characteristics in a micro can combustor with a baffle plate are investigated by a Reynolds Stress Model. In order to examine the geometric effects on the turbulent combusting flow, several baffle configurations are selected. The interrelation between the flow structure and the thermal field are investigated by examing the variation of recirculation region, flame length and heat loss. For the flow mixing, the decreasing air hole is more efficient than the decrease of the fuel hole. As the fuel or air hole diameter decreases, combustion efficiency is enhanced and flame length is decreased. Additionally, as the diameter of air hole decreases, the heat loss and combustion temperature are increased, while they are reduced with decreasing the diameter of fuel hole.

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.

One-dimensional flux theory (1DFT) is conventionally used for design of secondary clarifier of wastewater treatment plant. However, the 1DFT cannot describe turbulence, density current, shape parameters of the clarifier. In this study, we optimized the configurations of influent guide baffle and effluent baffle through the simulation using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and its verification by particle image velocity (PIV) test. The energy dissipating inlet (EDI) without influent guide baffle ($0^{\circ}$) showed the best efficiency for minimizing downward velocity under the center well of the clarifier. The lowest velocity distribution around the effluent weir region could be obtained with the McKinney baffle (EB-2). The performances of the influent and effluent baffles were clearly verified by PIV test results.

While the design of weirs requires a scour-considered strategy, research on the analysis of the effectiveness of hydraulic energy dissipaters and design criteria are scarce due to the limited experimental facilities and restraint in the experiment conduction period. The study analyzed the scour dissipation effect of multidirectional dissipaters to improve the scour problems of a weir downstream and suggests design criteria to minimize scour. A hydraulic model experiment was conducted for Nakdong River Hapcheon-Changnyeong Weir and a model in 1/25 of horizontal accumulation and 1/25 of vertical accumulation was produced. The experimental equipment was classified into channels and a flow rate supply and an underwater pump were installed to enable flow at a maximum of 2.0 m3/s. The experimental inflow was 1.3 m3/s, the upstream water level was 0.36 m, downstream water level was 0.24 m, and a cylinder wooden baffle, a dissipater, with a diameter of 0.05 m was made. A 3D scanner was also used for an accurate scour depth comparison for a length change of the baffle before and after installing the baffle. When the baffle was arranged in the shape of a V, the depth of scour decreased by 36% while the scour length decreased by 49% due to flow reduction compared to that before installing the baffle.

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.

KSTAR 토카막은 보조가열 장치로 2005년까지 1대(최종적으로는 2대)의 중성입자빔 입사장치(NBI)를 설치하여 장치의 기본 설계값에 도달할 예정이다. KSTAR NBI는 3개의 이온원을 가지고 있으며 총 수소 유입량은 70 Torr.L/s인 반면 고속 중성 입자빔량은 모두 11 Torr.L/s로 기체 배기량은 59 Torr.L/s에 달하고 압력은 장소에 따라 10-5~10-6 Torr로 유지되며 총배기속도가 1~2$\times$106 L인 펌프가 필요하다. 이때 크라이오 펌프(cryopump) 방식이 거의 유일한 해결책이라고 할 수 있다. 크라이오 펌프는 고속 입자빔 수송로의 양편에 각각 설치되는데 총면적 30m2 내외의 극저온 냉각판(cryo-pnael)들과 이를 상온 열복사로부터 보호하기 위한 열차폐(thermal shield) 및 흡기구 배플(baffle), 그리고 적절한 냉각장치로 구성된다. 시운전 단계에서는 15K GM 냉동기와 활성탄이 부착된 냉각판을 사용하는 방식과 4K GM 냉동기로 냉각하는 방식이, 최종 운전단계에서는 3.7K 액체 헬륨을 사용하는 방식이 고려되고 있다. 크라이오 펌프의 구조설계에 앞서 우선 배기속도, 흡？량, 작동압력, 냉각판 온도, 열손실량 등 설계사양을 확정하고 정리하는 일이 진행되고 있다. 또 냉각방식과 상관없이 동일한 개념으로 만들어지는 배플과 열차폐의 최적설계를 위한 몬테카를로 계산과 열전도 계산을 병행하고 있다. 이 곳에서는 KSTAR NBI 장치의 주배기계로서 사용될 크라이오 펌프의 설계방향과 전반적인 구조 및 예상성능 등에 대해 발표하려고 한다.
