In this study, a scaled model chamber was built to investigate ventilation characteristics of the hood room in LNG carrier. Experimental study was performed in model by visualization equipment with laser apparatus. Four different kinds of measuring area were selected as experimental condition Instant simultaneous velocity vectors at whole field were measured by 2-D PIV system and its software adopting two-frame grey-level cross correlation algorithm. The flow pattern reveals the large scale counter-clockwise forced-vortex rotation at center area.

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.

A numerical code which can simulate unsteady, incompressible and 3-dimensional flows in an engine cylinder has been developed. The governing equations based on the cylindrical coordinate are discretized by the finite volume method with staggered variable arrangements. A geometric conservation rule is also incorporated into the simulation code in order to deal with a moving boundary problem. For the unsteady simulation, a fractional step method is adopted. The law of wall is applied to the wall boundaries and standard $k-\;{\varepsilon}$ model is used to describe the in-cylinder turbulent flow. The model cylinder has one eccentric port, flat piston and flat cylinder-head. The comparisons with experimental data show fairly well qualitative agreement.

자동차 및 유체기계의 흡기계나 배기계에 사용되는 소음기의 음향성능은 전달손실로 기계성능은 배압으로 표현된다. 유체가 흐르는 관 사이의 임피던스 부정합을 이용하는 반사형 소음기의 경우, 내부 유로에 천공을 주어 음향감쇠를 시키거나 유동을 안정시키는 경우가 많다. 본 연구에서는 동심관형 공명기의 내부 관에 존재하는 천공의 분포 양상이 소음기의 전달손실과 배압에 미치는 영향을 실험을 통하여 고찰하였다. 내부관의 평균 천공율은 일정하지만 길이 방향을 따라서 천공율이 변하는 다섯가지의 공명기에 대한 실험을 수행하고, 성능에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 전달손실은 천공요소의 임피던스 모델을 고려하여 예측한 결과와 비교하였고, 측정된 배압은 모의 해석 결과와 비교하였다. 분석 결과, 천공율이 점점 작아지는 분포나, 작았다가 커진후 다시 작아지는 형태의 분포를 가질 경우, 배압 측면에서 매우 유리하고, 음향 전달손실도 큰 차이가 없음을 밝혔다.

To design an optimum engine intake system, a flow model for the intake manifold was developed by the finite difference method. The flow in the intake manifold was one-dimensional, and the finite difference equations were derived from governing equations of flow, continuity, momentum and energy. The thermodynamic properties of the cylinder were found by the first law of thermodynamics, and the boundary conditions were formulated using steady flow model. By comparing the calculated results with experimental data, the appropriate boundary conditions and convergence limits for the flow model were established. From this model, the optimum manifold lengths at different engine operating conditions were investigated. The optimum manifold length became shorter when the engine speeds were increased. The effect of intake valve timings on inlet air mass was also studied by this model. Advancing intake valve opening decreased inlet air mass slightly, and the optimum intake valve closing was found. The difference in inlet air mass between cylinders was very small in this engine.

흉부 X-ray 영상은 폐 질환을 진단하는 기본적인 도구로써 널리 사용되고 있다. 정확한 진단을 위해 흉부 X-ray 영상의 품질을 평가하는 과정을 거쳐야 하는데, 이 과정은 주관적인 기준에 따라 수 작업으로 이루어지기 때문에 많은 시간과 비용이 소요된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 임상 현장에서 사용되는 흉부 X-ray 영상 화질 평가 가이드라인을 기반으로 인공음영, 포함범위, 환자자세, 흡기정도, 그리고 투과 상태의 5가지 품질 평가를 자동화하는 도구를 제안한다. 제안하는 도구는 품질 판단에 소요되는 시간과 비용을 줄여주고, 더 나아가 흉부 병변 진단을 위한 학습 모델 개발의 양질의 학습 데이터를 선별하는 전처리 과정에 활용될 수 있다.

In this paper, the scavenging process of various transfer ports was evaluated to improve the performance of a small two-stroke engine for unmanned aerial vehicles. Three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics simulations were performed to four transfer ports for the evaluation, and a three-phase scavenging model was developed and applied to the simulation results for the quantitative comparison of scavenging performance. the short-circuit of fresh charge was restrained and an in-cylinder turbulent kinetic energy was enhanced by changing the transfer port. Also, a difference in the scavenging for each port were confirmed by applying the three-phase model to the simulation results.

Chest X-ray is radiological examination for xeamining the lungs and haert, and is particularly widely used for diagnosing lung disease. Since the quality of these chest X-rays can affect the doctor's diagnosis, the process of evaluating the quality must necessarily go through. This process can involve the subjectivity of radiologists and is manual, so it takes a lot of time and csot. Therefore, in this paper, based on the chest X-ray quality assessment guidelines used in clinical settings, we propose a tool that automates the five quality assessments of artificial shadow, coverage, patient posture, inspiratory level, and permeability. The proposed tool reduces the time and cost required for quality judgment, and can be further utilized in the pre-processing process of selecting high-quality learning data for the development of a learning model for diagnosing chest lesions.
