The twin impulse wave leads to very complicated flow fields, such as Mach stem, spherical waves, and vortex ring. The twin impulse wave discharged from the exits of the two tubes placed in parallel is investigated to understand detailed flow physics associated with the twin impulse wave, compared with those in a single impulse wave. In the current study, the merging phenomena and propagation characteristics of the impulse waves are investigated using a shock tube experiment and by numerical computations. The Harten-Yee's total variation diminishing (TVD) scheme is used to solve the unsteady, two-dimensional, compressible, Euler equations. The Mach number $M_{s}$, of incident shock wave is changed below 1.5 and the distance between two-parallel tubes, L/d, is changed from 1.2 to 4.0. In the shock tube experiment, the twin impulse waves are visualized by a Schlieren optical system for the purpose of validation of computational work. The results obtained show that on the symmetric axis between two parallel tubes, the peak pressure produced by the twin-impulse waves and its location strongly depend upon the distance between two parallel tubes, L/d and the incident shock Mach number, $M_{s}$. The predicted Schlieren images represent the measured twin-impulse wave with a good accuracy.

상용 핵연료 피복관 재료로 사용되고 있는 Zircaloy-2와 Zircaloy-4 및 ZIRLO$^{TM}$에 대한 수소와의 반응거동 및 속도론적(kinetic) 자료를 얻기 위하여 electro-microbalance가 장착된 TGA (thermogravimetric analysis) 장치를 이용하여 30$0^{\circ}C$~50$0^{\circ}C$의 온도범위에서 1기압 수소와의 반응에 따른 무게증가를 in-situ로 측정하였다. Zircaloy와 수소와의 반응거동은 chamber내 온도상승시 생성되는 산화막에 의해 초기에는 느린 반응이 진행되는 영역이 존재하고 온도가 낮은 35$0^{\circ}C$ 이하에서는 이것이 잠복기 형태로 나타난 후 직선속도법칙(linear rate law)을 따르며 반응이 가속화되는 것으로 나타났고 40$0^{\circ}C$ 이하의 저온에서는 직선속도법칙에서 반응이 지연되는 방향으로 약간의 편차(deviation)가 관찰되었다. 그 결과 Zircaloy-2와 ZIRLO$^{TM}$가 Zircaloy-4보다 수소와의 반응속도가 빠르고 활성화에너지가 낮은 것으로 나타났으며 직선속도법칙을 근거로 하여 각각 1.1x$10^{7}$ exp(-20,800/RT)와 1.5x$10^{6}$exp(-18,000/RT) 및 6.9x$10^{7}$ exp(-23,800/RT) (mg/dm$^2$/min) 의 속도상수를 도출하였다. 또한, 열구배가 존재하지 않는 out-of-pile 조건하에서도 'sunburst' 형태의 국부적 수소침투가 발생할 수 있음이 ～l,000 ppm이상의 수소침투 시편에서 확인되었다. ～3,000ppm이상 침투하게 되면 표면에 수소화물이 농축되어 있는 hydride layer가 형성됨을 관찰하였으며 ～5,000ppm 이상의 경우에는 수소화물의 방향성이 random하였으며 특히, ZIRLO$^{TM}$ 시편의 경우에서는 원주방향으로 길게 이어진 수소화물과 기계적 성질에 치명적인 반경방향의 수소화물이 평행하게 배열된 것을 관찰하였다.

질소 기체의 온도변화에 따른 질소 레이저의 동작 특성을 조사하고 실험에 의해 얻은 E/P값을 이론치와 비교 연구하였다. 이를 위하여 레이저 관의 길이가 200mm이고, 다중 평행판 축전기형 전송 회로 및 질소 기체의 온도 조정 장치로 구성된 질소 레이저를 제작하였다. 반복률 20Hz에서 스파크 갭의 전극 거리 4mm일 때 최대출력을 얻었으며 최적동작 조건은 질소 기체 온도 $30^{\circ}C$, 기체 압력 70torr이었다. 이때의 E/P는 411V/cm.torr이었다. 한편 질소 기체의 온도가 증가함에 따라 최적 동작 조건은 높은 압력 쪽으로 이동하는 경향을 보였고 이때 E/P값은 감소하는 것으로 나타나 이론과 어느 정도 일치함을 알 수 있었다.

The present work presents condensation heat transfer and pressure drop data for the flow of R-12 in flat extruded aluminum tubes with small hydraulic diameters. The tube outside dimensions are $18mm(width){\times}1.7mm(height)$. Three types of internal geometry with the same outside dimensions are tested : sample 1 (7 tube holes), sample 2 (13 tube holes) and sample 3 (7 tube holes, micro-fin). The overall heat transfer coefficient is obtained for air-to-refrigerant heat transfer, and the Wilson plot method is used to determine the heat transfer coefficient for refrigerant flow. The sample 2 and sample 3 show significantly higher performance than sample 1. The heat transfer rates for the sample 2 and sample 3 are 9% and 12% higher, respectively, than sample 1. The friction factors for the sample 2 and sample 3 are 11.9% and 2.4% higher, respectively, than sample 1.

The purpose of this paper is to clarify the effect of wall proximity on the terminal velocity of single air bubbles in vertical tubes. As an initial step, experiments were conducted to determine the terminal velocity, shape, and path of single air bubbles rising freely in water. The terminal velocity of air bubbles rising through water was measured in cylindrical tubes, rectangular tubes, and parallel plates respectively. The results of effect wall of cylindrical tubes were shown as a dimensionless plot, and may also be used to arrive at a decision regarding the minimum size of tube.

In this paper, the error and its sources in manufacturing of bourdon tube pressure gage was studied, and the method to reduce such errors was discussed. In more detail, the effects of parallelism of rollers, spring back, uniformity of radius curvature and the ratio of circumferential speeds of rollers were invesrti- gated. As a reselt, we could find out that the aprallelism of roller affected to the displacement error at the free end of gage and that the amount of spring back was closely related with the ratio of circumferential speeds of rollers. The uniformity of curvature radius was determined by the distance between bending rollers and it was comparatively uniform in the range above 30 .deg. C from the both sides of tube. Also, the ratio of circumfer-ential speeds of rollers was finded out as a very important factor giving severe influence on the creep or the hysteresis of bourdon tube.

Studies were conducted to determine the extent of oxidation and same of the mechanical property changes of Zircaloy-4 fuel cladding after it was exposed to hot steam environment. The purpose of these tests was to provide some informations on the embrittlement behavior of CANDU type fuel cladding, which could be experienced under the loss-of-coolant accident conditions. The Zircaloy fuel cladding tubes were exposed in a steam environment at the temperature of 90$0^{\circ}C$, 1,00$0^{\circ}C$. The growth of the ZrO$_2$ layer combined with an oxygen rich $\alpha$-phase layer into the Zircaloy tube material was found as a function of time t and temperature of steam exposure, E=1.1√Dt+0.002 where D is a temperature dependent diffusion coefficient. The tensile strength of the specimens exposed for a short period increased but decreased continuously with further exposure. The circumferential elongation was drastically changed with the exposure time while the hoop strength did't decrease greatly. The X-ray measurement of preferred orientation of the Zircaloy tube material indicated that grains in the as received tube were oriented such that the poles of the basal (0001) planes were predominantly radial, while the poles of the basal plane in the tube materials heattreated at 1,00$0^{\circ}C$ were oriented tangentially. It appears that this reoriented texture may contribute to lessening the decrease of the hoop strength of the heat treated Zircaloy tube material.

To prevent accidents due to the cavities and loosened layers formed due to water leakage from the deteriorated buried pipes, evaluation of the changes in water contents around the buried pipes is required. As a method to evaluate the water contents of the soils, time domain reflectometry (TDR) system can be adopted. However, slender electrodes used in standard TDR probe may be damaged when buried in the ground. Thus, in this study, buried type TDR module was developed for the evaluation of the water contents with maintaining required shape of the electrodes in the ground. The TDR module is composed of three electrodes connected to the core conductor and outer conductor and a casing to prevent deformation and maintain alignment of the electrodes in the ground. For the verification of TDR waveforms measured using the TDR module, comparative analysis was conducted with the TDR waveforms measured using the standard TDR probe, and the relationship between the volumetric water content of the soils and the travel time of the guided electromagnetic wave was constructed. In addition, a model test was conducted to test the applicability of the buried type TDR module, and the experimental result shows that the TDR module clearly evaluates the changes in volumetric water contents due to the leakage from the modeled buried pipe. Therefore, the buried type TDR module may be effectively used for the health monitoring of the buried pipe and the evaluation of the water contents around the pipes buried in the urban pavements.
