The effects of gas velocity and solid circulation rate on the axial solid holdup distribution have been determined in a 10 mm-I.D. ${\times}$ 800 mm-high circulating fluidized bed plasma reactor under reduced pressure (1torr). Polystyrene polymer powder and nitrogen gas are used as solid and gas materials respectively. The change of solid circulation rate by a large gas flow rate of the riser (40~80 sccm) is also possible by a relatively small gas flow rate of the solid recirculation part (6.6~9.9 sccm). The solid circulation rate in the reactor under reduced pressure increases with increasing aeration velocity in the solid recirculation part. The axial solid holdup in the riser decreases from the dense at the bottom to the dilute phase at the top section of the riser. Solid holdups at the axial positions in the riser increase linearly with increasing solid circulating velocity. From these results, we could determine the position of plasma load for good plasma ignition, maintain and plasma reaction.

Vortex tube is the device that can separate small particles from the compressed gas, as well as compressed gas into hot and cold flow. Due to energy separation ability, a vortex tube can substitute for an EGR cooler of the automotive engine. In this study, experimental approach has been performed to analyze the energy separation characteristics of the vortex tube. Energy separation characteristics of the vortex tube has been tested for supply pressure, cold-out pressure, and hot-out pressure. As increasing supply pressure, energy separation effect increased. Maximum temperature exists about 0.85 of the cold-out-flow-ratio, and minimum exists about 0.35. Hot-out temperature of the vortex tube is affected by the hot-out and cold-out pressure. However, for the given conditions, cold-out temperature is independent of exit pressure change. The results from this study can be used for the basic design parameter of the EGR cooler substitute of an automotive engine.

Knowledge of the characteristics of airflow in nasal cavities is essential to understand the physiological and pathological aspects of nasal breathing. In our laboratory, a series of experimental investigations on the nasal airflow was conducted; airflow in models of normal and deformed nasal cavities under both constant and periodic flow conditions was studied by PIV. Some of the patients with asymmetric nasal cavities experience pain or discomfort, while other patients with asymmetric nasal cavities do not experience pain. Airflows inside asymmetric nasal cavities with and without obstructions due to a bent nasal septum are investigated both experimentally by PIV and numerically by using the general-purpose FVM code in order to determine the reason for the above-mentioned discrepancy. The comparisons between two cases are tried. Heat and humidity distribution are investigated numerically.

수력발전 사업에 있어 Desander 구조물은 주로 고산지대 수력발전댐의 Run-of-river 형식의 발전방식에서 유사로 인한 터빈의 손상을 방지하기 위한 목적으로 설치된다. Desander의 적정 규모는 터빈의 손상을 일으킬 수 있는 유사 입경에 대해 안정적으로 침전을 시킬 수 있는 폭/길이/깊이로 평가할 수 있으며 상대적으로 Desander의 규모가 크게 설계된 경우 초기 공사비 증가하고 반대로 규모가 작게 설계된 경우 터빈의 교체 주기 단축으로 인한 유지관리비가 증가된다. 현재까지 일반적인 Desander 구조물의 설계 방식은 제거 입경의 침전 속도, 유입유량 및 깊이를 변수로 사용하여 경험식(L. Sudry method, Guicciardis method 및 Rouse method)을 통해 규모를 결정해 왔다. 하지만, 3-D 전산유체해석을 통해 유속 흐름 분석으로 직 간접적 Desander 규모의 적정성을 평가할 수 있는 현 시점에서 경험식으로부터 도출된 결과의 신뢰성과 객관성을 검증할 필요가 있다고 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 노르웨이 NSTU에서 개발한 유사의 이송 및 확산해석 기능이 내장된 범용 소프트웨어인 SSIIM을 이용하였다. SSIIM(Simulation of Sediment movements In water Intakes with Multiblock)은 개수로 흐름 상태에서 유사 이동 및 하상 변동을 분석할 수 있도록 개발된 3-D 해석 프로그램이다. SSIIM은 수치해석 방법으로 유한체적법(Finite Volume Method)를 채택하였으며 Navier-Stokes equations을 통해 유체의 흐름을 해석한다. 입력 자료는 유입 유량($m^3/sec$), 유입 유사량(kg/sec), 유출부 수위 및 해당 Desander Structure grid 자료가 사용되며 해석 결과로 Desander 내 grid 별 유속, 수위, 유사 농도 변화 등을 제공한다. 본 연구에서는 SSIIM을 이용하여 제거 목표 유사 입경의 차집 효율(Trap efficiency)로 Desander의 적정 규모를 평가 할 수 있는 설계법을 제안하며 설계 단계에서 결정되는 최소 제거유사 입자와 차집 효율에 의한 Desander의 적정 규모 평가 분석을 파키스탄 A 프로젝트를 대상으로 수행하였다. 연구 성과로 (1)SSIIM을 통해 해석된 차집 효율을 기초로 Desander의 적정 규모를 계획할 경우 경험적 방식에 비해 설계의 객관성과 신뢰성을 제고할 수 있으며 (2)3-D 수치해석을 통해 grid 별 유사농도를 확인 할 수 있어 Desander 형상과 규모에 대한 평가가 가능하다.

This paper experimentally investigates the steady shear behaviors of electro-rheological(ER) fluids under flow mode at high pressure level. As for the ER fluid to be tested, two types of ER fluids are employed; water-based ER fluids (ERF 1, ERF 2) and water-free ER fluid(ERF 3). The water-based ER fluids are composed inhousingly, and the concentrations of dispersed particles are 20 wt% and 30 wt% for ERF 1 and ERF 2, respectively. To generate the flow mode at high pressure, an experimental apparatus operated by two-way hydraulic cylinder is constructed and utilized. The pressure difference is measured by the pressure sensor, while the flow rate is calculated using the measured data of the displacement sensor(LVDT). Consequently, the shear stress and shear rate are distilled by incorporating the measured data; the pressure difference and the flow rate.

The mixing behavior of turbidity currents in a reservoir is closely related with the annual temperature change of the reservoir. In the summer, the reservoir has a well defined structure: one or two thermoclines and some layers of different densities. This density stratification inhibits vertical mixing and affects various hydrodynamic processes within the reservoir. Therefore, many reservoirs can be operated to release water of the specific quality with the selective withdrawal. In this study, the hydraulic experiments were performed to analyze the efficiency of selective withdrawal. The velocity distributions are measured with PIV in the stratified tank with the "two-tank" method. The relationship between the Richardson number and the selective withdrawal efficiency are provided using the measured velocity distributions.

Accurate prediction of size, shape and velocity of a bubble rising through a liquid pool is very important for predicting the particulate removal efficiency in pool scrubbing, for designing engineering safety features to prepare for severe accidents in nuclear power plants, and for predicting the emission of fission products from MCCI (molten core-concrete interaction) process during severe accidents. In this review article, previous studies on the determination of the size, shape and rising velocity of a bubble in liquid are reviewed. Various theoretical and parameterization formulas calculating the bubble size, shape and velocity from physical properties of liquid and gas flowrate are compared. Recent studies tend to suggest simple parameterizations that can easily determine the bubble shape and rising velocity without iteration, whereas iteration has to be performed to determine the bubble shape and velocity in old theories. The recent parameterizations show good agreement with measured data obtained from experiments conducted using different liquid materials with very diverse physical properties, proving themselves to be very useful tools for researchers in related fields.

에폭시수지에 유기화된 층상실리케이트 나노입자를 충진하여 에폭시-나노콤포지트 제조하였다. 에폭시-나노콤포지트는 열적, 기계적 특성이 매우 우수한 콤포지트로서 실란처리에 따른 동적 기계적 특성 (Dynamic Mechanical Analysis)과 가교밀도와의 관계를 조사였다. 나노입자의 충진함량은 3wt%로 충진하였고, Silane Coupling Agent는 에폭시실란으로서 3-Glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane이 사용되었다. 실란처리함량은 0.5, 1, 1.5 wt%로서 적용하여 제조된 샘플이다. DMA Storage modulus특성으로 glass state($40^{\circ}C$)에서는 원형에폭시의 경우 2054, 실란처리되지 않은 나노콤포지트 3967, 실란처리된 나노콤포지트는 4867MPa을 나타내었다. rubbery state($140^{\circ}C$)에서는 원형에폭시의 경우 1458, 실란처리되지 않은 경우 2506, 실란처리된 나노콤포지트는 2638MPa을 나타내었다. 또한 실란처리함량에따른 가교밀도변화는 0.5wt%에서는 0.803, 1 wt%에서는 0.671, 1.5wt%에서는 $0.762[mol/cm^3]$이로서 에폭시원형과 실란미처리된 나노콤포지트 그리고 실란처리된 나노콤포지트순으로 glass state와 rubbery state에서의 특성이 크게 향상된 결과를 얻었다. 이는 실란이 고분자와 무기물사이의 결합력을 강화시켜 열적기계적 특성향상을 가져 오는 것으로 볼 수 있다. 가교밀도의 실란처리함량의 변화에 있어서 과량의 함량 첨가는 에폭시와 나노층상실리게이트 표면처리된 잔유량이 오히려 특성의 저하를 가져오는 것으로 볼 수 있다.

A 2-dimensional hydrodynamic model has been applied to understand water circulation pattern in Lake Deacheong. The simulation results have been used in sediment transport modeling. A sediment transport model using a particle tracking method has been developed to simulate sediment transport in the ocean, river and reservoir. The model was applied to estimate transport track of particulate pollutants in the lake. The hydrodynamic model was verified for water level variations and showed good agreements. Through the results we found out that water velocity is less than 5 cnysec for mean yearly flow and more than 120 cnysec at some points for the simulated flood flow. The incoming sediment particles in flood season reached into the Daecheong Dam. But the incoming sediment particles in the mean flow were settled down at riverbed and didn't move into the dam. These results can be used in setting up water quality management plan in the lake.

Displayed result that handle particle contaminant and hydrospace organism included a number of ballast that is happened in ship using automatic back washing filter. Reason that removes first contaminant that is included in number of ballast is that heighten processing effectof after processing processof the filter. Another advantage is to drop off the solids with controlling revolution of drum screen in pretreatment filtration process. The fact that it is easy to attach and detach a several type of screen for getting the expected water quality is another advantage. Filter rotation speed of filtration filter could be expose by 35mmHg more than 60 rpm and filter consecutively filtration pressure is 40.5mmHg in 20 rpm and 40 rpm are 36.6mmHg. Filtration system removal aquatic organism over $70{\mu}min$ ballast water. This study shows that the filtration treatment system has a potential for the treatment of ballast water.
