This study was carried out to design the spray nozzle tip for airless spray coating. Airless spray coating is the process of coating an object with a liquid spray of paint or other fluid. The nozzle tip controls the fluid flow rate and creates back pressure in the system. The nozzle tip also defines the spray pattern by the size and shape of the orifice. The spray pattern of nozzle tip was investigated numerically using ANSYS CFX ver. 14.0. It was observed that performance result of designed nozzle tip was correspond well, compared with that of GARCO nozzle tip.

Heavy duty coating is playing an important role in the field of heavy industry in the development of the shipbuilding and plant industries. Heavy duty coating has the very important function of protecting steel under serious corrosive conditions. The airless tip used for heavy duty coating is an essential part that determines the spray pattern of the paint. This research investigated the injection properties of three airless tips(numbers 521, 523, and 525) by using particle image velocimetry(PIV). The velocity and turbulent intensity according to pressure change with each tip type were investigated by using PIV. If the pressure is greater, the turbulent intensity becomes stronger and the break up of particles becomes bigger as the tip number gets smaller. The velocity is the fastest in the center and decreases in the radial direction.

Carbon felts were prepared under various thermal conditions to improve the electrochemical properties of vanadium redox flow batteries. The number of C-O and/or C-OH functional groups on the surface of the electrodes treated under airless conditions was much larger than that of the untreated and partially oxygen-treated electrodes. The carbon felt treated under airless conditions had the lowest surface area. The overall kinetic properties of the redox reaction were greatly improved for the carbon felt treated under airless conditions; i.e., the reversibility of the anodic and cathodic reactions associated with the $VO_2{^+}/VO^{2+}$ couple became more reversible. Single-cell tests indicated that the carbon felt exhibited an excellent discharge capacity of $3.1Ah{\cdot}g^{-1}$ at $40mA{\cdot}cm^{-2}$, and the corresponding Coulombic, voltage, and energy efficiencies were 89.5%, 91.8%, and 82.2%, respectively.

An airless tire has advantages over the conventional pneumatic tire in terms of flat proof and maintenance free. According to the recently disclosed inventions on the airless tire, non-pneumatic tire (NPT) consists of the flexible polygon spokes. Considering the NPT structure, the spokes undergo the tension-compression cyclic loading while the tire rolls. Therefore the spokes of NPT are required to have both stiffness and resilience under the cyclic tensile-compressible loading. In general, if a material has a high stiffness, it shows a low elastic strain limit. In this paper, using the auxetic honeycomb structure with negative poissons's ratio, the spokes of NPT tire are designed to have both stiffness and resilience. Finite element based numerical simulation of the contact pressure of a NPT is carried out with ABAQUS.

We have studied on the main causes of pressure drop in the paint hose under the spraying with airless spray pump and suggest calculation method for selecting the optimum pressure drop during the spraying. Among many factors contributing the pressure drop during the airless spraying procedure of paint, some of the key factors and the correct method for checking pressure loss between airless pump and spray gun are addressed. We have developed pressure loss calculation method which depending on hose length and diameter, viscosity and flow rate in the painting hose during the spraying. also we have developed calculation equation for the expected spray tip flow rate which depending on pressure and specific gravity and tip size.

The worker who is responsible for Airless Pump maintenance have a high possibility to suffer from WMSDs, because a height of Airless Pump workbench is too low. In this paper, I'm going to introduce a research about 1) analysis of working environment through a interview with an actual field worker, 2) Ergonomic simulation modeling of an Ariless Pump worker to suggest a advanced working environment and a working instructions. I have used a DELMIA S/W as a tool for ergonomic simulation and performed a posture & activity to analyze a RULA methodology. Applying the Digital Human Simulation to analyze working posture would be helpful to preventing WMSDs.

Airless spray which is widely used for painting to ship blocks and hull sides is the coating method for attaching atomized paint material to the substrate using spray tip nozzle with compressed air. When the paint material which has high solid contents such as epoxy primer paint is atomized by passing through spray tip nozzle with high pressure, the nozzle composed of tungsten carbide(WC) undergoes the erosive wear, leading to widening of nozzle hole. The deformation of nozzle hole induces improper spray pattern and coating failures such as finger pattern and sagging because the conditions of spray pump pressure and paint flow rate for developing full spray pattern are changed. In this study, an appropriate replacement cycle of spray tip was predicted by measuring the erosive wear tendency as increasing the spraying time of epoxy primer paint.

Recently, the ministry of environment banned the use of the existing airless method using the spray in painting industrial facilities. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a pressure-roller attached to existing airless painting systems. The hole design of the SUS piping and drum-bases of pressure-rollers currently developed and sold have not been studied in detail, so their efficiency is questionable. In particular, if sufficient paint is not supplied to both ends of the roller, it is necessary to rework with a brush after painting. Therefore, the holes of the drum base need to be distributed so that the paint can flow to both ends of the roller. In this study, numerical analysis was performed to determine the effects of the hole design in the SUS piping and drum-base on the flow patterns of the paint and to suggest more efficient design measures. The analysis results showed that the uniform placement of the holes in the SUS piping is good for the balanced inflow of the paint. For the drum-base, the paint can flow better into both ends of the roller when the holes are concentrated and machined on both ends of the drum-base.

Microencapsulation of anchovy oil as a core material in sodium alginate as a wall material was inves tigated. Microencapsulation was accomplished by injecting an oil/water emulsion, consisting of a mixture of liquefied sodium alginate and emulsifier, under high pressure through an orifice submerged in a calcium lactate solution. Microcapsules suspended in a dispersion fluid were observed under a fluorescence mi croscope to verify the presence of the capsules and to note coalescence or degradation of the capsules. Optimum conditions for microencapsulation of anchovy oil were obtained when 1.0% aqueous solution of sodium alginate contained 3% of a 1:1 ratio of ESPR 25(polyglycerine＋polylinoleate) and TW 20(sorbitan laurate＋ethylene oxide) as an emulsifier in terms of capsule size and size distribution, and emulsion stability. The airless sprayer produced microcapsules with a diameter between 15.9 and 73.9 m with different concentration of a wall material. The optimum mixing ratio of wall material to core material was 90:10(wt/wt). 0.2% calcium lactate was appropriate as a dispersion fluid.
