This paper describes flow characteristics in a piping system having various duct shapes on refuse collecting system. A simulator for the refuse collecting system is designed to analyze the flow characteristics in the piping system. The simulator consists of an air intake, a waste chute, circular duct having various shapes, cyclone and turbo blower. The simulator has four different duct shapes: straight, curved, inclined and Y-shaped ducts. Three-dimensional Navier-Stokes analysis is introduced to analyze the pressure loss in the piping system. Throughout the numerical simulation, pressure loss obtained by numerical simulation has a good agreement with the results of experimental measurements. The selected length of curved and Y-ducts for the pressure loss is determined using pressure distributions on the duct. Flow and pressure characteristics in the piping system of the simulator are evaluated by numerical simulation and discussed in detail.

A group of traditional folk medicines obtained from the fruits of Rutaceae plants, such as Ponciri Fructus Immaturus (PFI) from Poncirus trifoliata Raf., Aurantii Fructus Immaturus (AFI) and Aurantii Pericarpium (AP) from Citrus aurantium L., and Aurantii Nobilis Pericarpium (ANP) from Citrus unshiu Marc., has been widely used for improving poor gastrointestinal function in East Asia, including in China and Korea. In the present study, the effects of Rutaceae-fruit-derived folk medicines on gastrointestinal motor function were investigated and compared by measuring in vivo gastric emptying and intestinal transit in mice. Among the aqueous and ethanolic extracts of some Rutaceae-fruit-derived folk medicines, an ethanolic extract of AP (AP-E) significantly accelerated intestinal transit in a dose-dependent manner without affecting gastric emptying. Furthermore, the intestinal transit rate of AP-E was the highest among all extracts examined in this study, including aqueous extracts of PFI, AFI, and ANP, of which the activities of accelerating intestinal transit have been already reported.

The new developed long distance transport technology uses the effect of electro-magnetic energy. But it's difficult to estimate the new technology. We monitored the velocity profile and pressure drops in pipes and estimated the technology quantitatively from data analysis. Laboratory test and field test gave us that the effects of electro-magnetic energy changed the flow properties and increased the velocity, especially at the slip layer. When transporting the dredged soil, electro-magnetic field generation reduces the frictional resistances at the slip layer, increases the velocity of flow. Furthermore, it would be possible to transport the dredged materials up to 15km long with one pump station.

This study presents prediction of maximum fly ash conveying capacity of fly ash system in a power plant. The mixture ratio and pressure drop characteristics of air-fly ash flow in piping system are not well understood due to the complexity of particle motion mechanism. In this paper, the researcher investigated the optimum mixture ratio when the pressure drop of fly ash conveying system is equal to maximum static pressure of displacement fly ash transport blower and the capacity of fly ash transport according to the optimum mixture ratio by experimenting the fly ash conveying system of domestic D coal thermal power plants, which is currently in operation. The experiment results showed that the maximum fly ash conveying capacity of fly ash system were founded under the condition of maximum air volume 5,040 m3/h, static pressure of trip condition 1,163 mmH2O. In addition, it was predicted maximum mixture ratio of the air-fly ash was 8.66 and maximum capacity of fly ash conveying was 52,600 kg/h under these conditions.

This paper presents a numerical investigation on propagation of hydrocarbon (ethylene-air mixture) detonation in a deformable copper tube. In this study, we deal with interactions of multi-materials, gas and solid. In gas phase, the model consists of the reactive compressible Navier-Stokes equations and one step chemical reaction. Also we use Inviscid Euler equations in solid. In order to the interface tracking and the determination of boundary values, our model handle level-set and ghost fluid method. Through the numerical simulation results, we identify generations of expansion waves and interferences by the wall deformation. In addition, we predict the minimum copper tube thickness that ensures safety under an incident detonation.

We report a study on the dynamics of the transport of a capsule immersed in a vertical pipe. Techniques to convey objects through liquid flow pipes using a hydraulic mean are used to transport sludge and hazardous materials. For the better understanding of the techniques, we developed a theoretical model to predict the transport speed of a cylindrical capsule in a vertical pipe. The comparison of the model prediction with the experiments shows that our model using the lubrication approximation precisely describes the experimental observations in cases where the gap between the capsule and pipe wall is sufficiently small. Our study suggests parameters to control the falling speed and thus enable an accurate control of the capsule speed in hydraulic transport systems.
