Seals in a universal joint bearing are important components reinforcing lubrication performance by holding lubricant and preventing infiltration of dust, moisture, etc.. There is a great difference in seal performance according to seal shape and bonding position. Therefore, in this study, as for both the lip type seal and the O-ring type seal, FE analysis is conducted using Mooned-Rivlin Model. The results show that O-ring type seal does not have any effect of misalignment angle compared with lib type seal, which is more profitable.

목적: 이 연구는 새로운 레진계 근관실러인 Any-Seal의 여러 물성을 AH Plus Jet와 비교하여 평가하고자 했다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 흐름성, 방사선 불투과성, 압축 강도를 ISO 6876/2001기준에 의해 측정하였다. 흐름성은 실러 0.05 mL를 두 개의 유리판 사이에 놓고 100 g의 무게로 눌러 측정했다. 실러 혼합 10분 뒤 무게를 제거하고 눌려진 실러의 지름을 측정했다. 방사선 불투과성은 각 근관실러를 지름 10 mm, 높이 1 mm의 디스크형 시편으로 만들어 aluminum step wedge와 함께 방사선 촬영을 하여 분석했다. 압축 강도는 각 실러를 4 mm 지름과 6 mm 높이의 실린더 형태로 만든 다음 24시간 후와 1주일 후에 측정했다. 결과: 두 근관실러의 흐름성과 방사선 불투과성 값은 ISO 6876/2001조건에 맞았다. 흐름성은 AH Plus Jet와 Any-Seal 사이에 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다(P > 0.05). AH Plus Jet가 방사선 불투과성 값을 나타냈다(P < 0.05). 24시간 후와 1주일 후 모두에서 AH Plus Jet가 더 높은 압축 강도를 보였다(P < 0.05). 결론: Any-Seal이 낮은 압축 강도를 보였으므로 다른 물리적, 생물적 특성에 대해 더 많은 연구가 임상적 활용 전에 필요할 것으로 생각한다.

This paper presents an experimental study of the leakage performance and endurance performance of a mechanical face seal in the 7-ton-class turbopump of the Korea Space Launch Vehicle 2 third-stage engine. We install a mechanical face seal between the fuel pump and turbine to prevent the mixing of the fuel and turbine gas. We design and manufacture a prototype mechanical face seal, which has two parts, namely, a bellows seal assembly and mating ring. We set up a test facility to measure the leakage and endurance of the mechanical face seal. For the similarity tests, we use water under real operating conditions such as high rotational speed, high temperature, and high pressure. Through investigation of the leakage and carbon wear rate, it is possible to evaluate the performance of the mechanical face seal. The results of the leakage and endurance performance test demonstrate the absence of any leakage from the prototype mechanical face seal after a trial run and clarify that the acceptable wear rate fully satisfies the turbopump requirements. Finally, we install a qualified mechanical face seal in a 7-ton-class turbopump and perform a validation test in the turbopump real-propellant test facility in the Korea Aerospace Research Institute. The test results confirm that the mechanical face seal works well under real operating conditions.

64 multi-rooted teeth (198 canals) were tested in vitro to evaluate the apical seal produced by the single cone filling and lateral condensation with sealer and without sealer. The obturated teeth were immersed in India ink, decalcified, and cleared. The degree of ink penetrated into the canal provided a measure of the apical seal. The results were as follows: 1. The lateral condensation with sealer provided statically less apical leakage than the other obturating techniques used in this study. 2. The single cone filling provided good apical sealing. 3. The lateral condensation without sealer provided most apical leakage than any other techniques used in this study. 4. The degree of apical leakage was not related to the visual appearence of the adaptation of the gutta percha filling in cleared teeth.

Background: Air-purifying, tight-fitting facepieces are examples of respiratory protective equipment and are worn to protect workers from potentially harmful particulate and vapors. Research shows that the presence of facial hair on users' face significantly reduces the efficacy of these devices. This article sets out to establish if an acceptable seal could be achieved between facial hair and the facepiece. The team also created and investigated a low-cost "pressure testing" method for assessing the efficacy of a seal to be used during the early design process for a facepiece designed to overcome the facial hair issue. Methods: Nine new designs for face mask seals were prototyped as flat samples. A researcher developed a test rig, and a test protocol was used to evaluate the efficacy of the new seal designs against facial hair. Six of the seal designs were also tested using a version of the conventional fit test. The results were compared with those of the researcher-developed test to look for a correlation between the two test methods. Results: None of the seals performed any better against facial hair than a typical, commercially available facepiece. The pressure testing method devised by the researchers performed well but was not as robust as the fit factor testing. Conclusion: The results show that sealing against facial hair is extremely problematic unless an excessive force is applied to the facepiece's seal area pushing it against the face. The means of pressure testing devised by the researchers could be seen as a low-cost technique to be used at the early stages of a the design process, before fit testing is viable.

Rubber materials, used in nuclear power plants, need high heat-oxidation resistance to curing or cracking under a heat aging environment. This is because they are applied to environments with high temperature, high humidity, and radiation exposure. Nuclear radiation causes additional hardening or degradation, therefore, rubber materials need radiation resistance that satisfies the general and any accidental conditions produced in the power plant. Therefore, in this study, we developed a rubber material with excellent heat and radiation resistance for the diaphragm seal of a nuclear steam generator nozzle dam. The rubber material greatly improved the reliability of the steam generator nozzle dam. In addition, 30 inch and 42 inch diaphragm seals were manufactured using the developed rubber material. A nozzle dam was installed in a nuclear power plant and tested under the same conditions as a steam generator to evaluate safety and reliability. In the future, the performance and safety of diaphragm seals developed through field tests of nuclear power plants will be evaluated and applied to currently operating and new nuclear power plants.

In these days, repair materials for leakage cannot help but being taken in temporary way without any noticeable countermeasure. This kind of repair is socially criticized many times that is defective construction even if tills costs a lot. It was not arrange the standard for performance evaluation test method and quality maintenance for materials, even it has been used various injection repairing agent. In conclusion, We suggest that the test method for repair materials for leakage to establish the leakage repairing technology as increase of structure demand, so that the necessity of the establishment of the quality control standard and the performance testing way on the relevant water-proof seal is increasing a lot to regulate the water-proof technology and the leakage repair technology.

A 1-MW vacuum feedthrough for the KSTAR ICRF antenna is fabricated and high power RF test is performed. It is designed to have two alumina $(Al_2O_3)$ ceramic cylinders and O-ring seal instead of a brazed seal for good mechanical and thermal strength, which is important in long pulse or steady state operation. For cooling of the ceramics, dry air is circulated in a space between the two cylinders and the outer conductor. Independent cooling water channels are installed to cool the inner conductor of the feedthrough. RF high voltage test is performed using two kinds of ceramics with the purities of 99.7% and 97%. Stable operation is possible with the RF voltage of 30 kVp at long pulse of 300 sec without any severe damage.
