The MVR was theoretically modeled by performing the polytropic process, and the polytropic coefficient was estimated by using the performance curve provided by the manufacturers. The TVR was investigated by applying the conservation equations to the movement of fluids inside the TVR. The size of the nozzle and diffuser was determined. Theoretical MVR and TVR modeling was verified by comparing the results of the model with the available design data. Besides, the effects of multi-staging of the MVR on power consumption, and the effects of suction and primary pressure on the sizing of TVR were investigated.

Commercial buildings account for significant portions of the total building energy in Korea, and thus, a variety of research on chiller operation has been carried out. However, most of the studies were carried out on the chiller itself, i.e., the part load ratio characteristics and the corresponding electricity energy consumption patterns were not analyzed in existing studies. In this study, the part load ratio and the operating characteristics of the vapor compression chiller were analyzed within an office building equipped with the conventional variable air volume system. As a result, significant portions of total operating hours, cooling load, and energy consumption turned out to be in the part load ratio range of 0 through 50%. Thus, energy consumption was significantly affected by the chiller COP at low part load conditions, indicating that chiller operation at the part load is an important factor in commercial buildings.

In this paper we show design and operation of 1MWth pulverized coal combustion test facility. The test facility is consists of coal feeding system, furnace and flue gas treatment system. The furnace is equipped with a top-fired burner in order to avoid influence of gravity on the coal particles. There are two part of vertical(VP) and horizontal pass(HP) at furnace. We can measure temperature and species of coal flames in vertical pass. Also, there is horizontally arranged section where investigation regarding corrosion and deposit formation will be carried out. The burner of combustor was externally air staging burner(EASB) type made by IFRF. The pulverized high bituminous(Blair athol) coal from Australia was used as fuel, and the particle size less than 80 ${\mu}m$ was 83.4%. Overall excess air ratio was 1.2.

Conceptual design process is defined for the air-launching rocket by including analysis modules like mission analysis, staging, propulsion analysis, configuration, weight analysis, aerodynamics analysis and trajectory analysis. As a result of the conceptual design, the supersonic(M=1.5) air-launching rocket with hybrid engine for first stage propulsion system is designed. For the best system alternative selection, trade study for the 1st stage engine type and launching speeds using sequential optimization and confirming feasibility of baseline air-launching rocket has been performed. As a result of trade study, all alternatives are competitive in total weight and show only small difference in total weight per unit payload weight. Therefore, it is confirmed that the baseline air-launching rocket which has advantage in system safety especially in supersonic launching is feasible.

Four coal sources that had different ash contents were evaluated in a drop tube furnace (DTF). Combustion experiments were conducted by using several sources with different particle sizes and excess air ratios under air-staging conditions to determine the optimized combustion conditions of high-ash coal, with an emphasis on the combustion efficiency and NOx emissions. The results show that the higher ash content results in a large amount of carbon remaining unburned, and that this effect is dominant when the largest particle size is used. Furthermore, the ash content of coal does affect the Char-NOx concentration, which decreases with the particle size. The results of this study suggest that an air-staged system can be useful to reduce the NOx emissions of high-ash coal and that control of the air stoichiometric ratio of the primary combustion zone (SR1) is effective for reducing NOx emissions, especially by considering unburned carbon contents.

Background: Sleep quality, quantity, and efficiency have all been demonstrated to be adversely affected by rotator cuff pathology. Previous measures of assessing the impact of rotator cuff pathology on sleep have been largely subjective in nature. This study was undertaken to objectively analyze this relationship through the use of activity monitors. Methods: Patients with full-thickness rotator cuff tears at a single institution were prospectively enrolled between 2018 and 2020. Waist-worn accelerometers were provided for the patients to use each night for 14 days. Sleep efficiency was calculated using the ratio of the time spent sleeping to the total amount of time that was spent in bed. Retraction of the rotator cuff tear was classified using the Patte staging system. Results: This study included 36 patients: 18 with Patte stage 1 disease, 14 with Patte stage 2 disease, and 4 patients with Patte stage 3 disease. During the study, 25 participants wore the monitor on multiple nights, and ultimately their data was used for the analysis. No difference in the median sleep efficiency was appreciated amongst these groups (P>0.1), with each cohort of patients demonstrating a generally high sleep efficiency. Conclusions: The severity of retraction of the rotator cuff tear did not appear to correlate with changes in sleep efficiency for patients (P>0.1). These findings can better inform providers on how to counsel their patients who present with complaints of poor sleep in the setting of full-thickness rotator cuff tears.

Many pressurization systems are designed and built with the goal of providing a smoke-free escape route in the event of a building fire. A secondary objective is to provide a smoke-free staging area for fire fighters. In the present study, a computer program is developed to calculate pressure loss and flow rate at several building elements such as a room, a ]tabby a staircase and an air supply shaft. By the program as the dosing tool for the pressurization system, the capacity of the injection fan is calculated, and the design method is proposed for the optimization of the fan capacity.

현대우주항공(주)가 미국의 AlliedSignal사와 함께 국제 공동 개발중인 10MW급의 ASE120 엔진은 항공용 엔진을 산업용으로 개조한 개조형 엔진으로서 희박 예혼합 예기화(Lean Premix prevaporization) 방식의 연소기를 쓰고 있다. 이 연소기는 연소에 관여하는 공기량을 부하에 따라 가감하여 일정 공연비를 유지하는 air staging법을 사용하고 있으며 이로써 연소화염온도를 일정치로 조절하여 연소중 생성되는 유해가스의 양을 목표치 이하로 제어한다. 연소화염온도 설계치는 2912$^{\circ}$F이며 배기가스 발생량은 NOx, CO모두 궁극적으로 10ppmv 이하를 목표로 하고 있다. 이러한 건식 저 배기가스(Dry Low Emission) 연소기가 그 역할을 다하기 위하여는 양호한 혼합기를 확보하는 것이 선결 문제이다. 본 연구소에서는 두 개의 혼합기(mixing can)가 180$^{\circ}$ 간격으로 환형 연소기(annular type)에 접선 방향으로 설치되어 대칭을 이루고 있고 혼합기의 혼합성능을 측정하기 위하여 제작된 시험장치에는 하나의 혼합기만을 쓰고 있다.

미분탄 순산소 연소는 기존의 연소 방법과는 달리 산화제로 O2/CO2를 사용함으로써 NOx의 발생을 감소시킬 수 있으며, 고농도의 CO2를 쉽게 회수 할 수 있어 큰 주목을 받고 있다. NOx의 배출저감을 위한 기술로는 로 내에서의 재연소(reburning), 단계(staging) 연소등이 있으며, 후처리 NOx 저감기술로는 SCR, SNCR등이 있다. 그러나 이러한 기술들은 비용이 비싸다는 단점이 있으며, 미분탄 순산소 연소조건에서는 화염 안정성이 감소하는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 화염의 안정성과 밀접한 관련을 가지는 화염전파속도에 대해 미분탄 순산소 연소에서 석탄 입자의 물성치와 주위 기체의 특성이 화염전파속도에 미치는 영향을 수치적 방법을 통하여 해석하였으며, NO 저감의 한 방법인 연소가스 재순환(Flue Gas Recirculation)에 따른 연소특성 및 NO 생성 메커니즘의 영향과 석탄을 가스화 시키는 방법에 따른 연료의 연소특성에 대해 해석하였다.

Purpose: Recently, large-scale forest fires caused by climate change, natural disasters, and human factors have been increasing every year in the East Coast and Taebaek Mountains region. Although forest fire extinguishing using helicopters is currently increasing, the need to introduce air force transport aircraft has continued to be raised due to the importance of early fire extinguishment to respond to large forest fires and the difficulty of extinguishing forest fires between sheep. This study seeks to present a plan for developing a post-fire management system for several aspects - achieving operational objectives, overcoming the operating environment, selecting a staging area, and efficient operation measures - to efficiently perform forest fire extinguishing missions using Air Force transport aircraft. Method: Based on literature research on forest fire extinguishing, forest fire extinguishing experiments using fixed-wing aircraft, and the operation status and operation method of forest fire extinguishing helicopters, the pros and cons of helicopter operation and the effects of large forest fire extinguishing using a large transport aircraft (C-130) Analyze the effectiveness of operation through analysis. Results: When extinguishing a large forest fire, an effective CM (Consequence Management) application plan was derived, including effective operation, control, command system, dispatch request, and forest fire extinguishment when integrating helicopter and fixed-wing aircraft (C-130). Conclusion: The application of the concept of CM (Consequence Management) is partially applied to some areas of chemical, biological, and radiological (CBRNE) protection in Korea, but efficient operation, control, and command systems are established when integrated operation of helicopters and large aircraft (C-130) in forest fire extinguishment. the concept of CM (Consequence Management), which is operated in advanced countries, was applied for safety management, dispatch requests, and forest fire extinguishing, thereby contributing to the establishment of a more advanced disaster and post-disaster management system.
