  • One of the main problems faced in developing India's first HTS power cable was that of shrinkage in length of the double-walled vacuum-insulated cryostat. The shrinkage was due to the evacuation of the annular vacuum space which results in a shorter working cable length. This work reports experimentally observed contraction during evacuation and analyses corrugated pipes/bellows which house the cable core of HTS cables. The effect of corrugation geometry including length, corrugation pitch and depth, diameters of corrugated pipes and thicknesses of pipes is studied numerically to realize the degree of shrinkage due to vacuum as well as chill down. Finally, necessary length compensation and associated cost is determined to tackle the shrinkage issue.

  • 최근 발생한 경주 및 포항 지진으로 인해 다수의 매립배관 손상이 보고되었다. 벨로우즈 신축관이음은 기하학적 특성으로 인해 진동 및 침하 등으로 인한 손상을 저감시킬 수 있다. 벨로우즈 신축관이음관의 내진 성능평가에 대한 실험적 혹은 해석적 연구는 미미한 상황이다. 본 연구는 벨로우즈 신축이음관의 내진성능을 분석하기 위해 반복하중 기반의 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 또한 실험결과를 기반으로 3차원 유한요소 모델을 구축하였으며 실험과 해석에서 얻어진 하중-변위 관계를 비교하였다. 해석 모델에서 전체적인 강성이 큰 것으로 나타났으며 최대 변위가 작용할 때 에너지 소산량은 약 10% 가량 큰 것으로 나타났다.

  • In diffusion process exhaust line during semiconductor manufacturing process, In order to improve the transportation efficiency in the piping by removing "The reaction by-product, $ZrO_2$ and The unreacted material, TEMAZ, TMA, $O_3$, etc" and "Powder being deposited", the piping temperature was raised to $80^{\circ}C$ or more by using the heater jacket, and the bellows at the rear end of the vacuum pump ruptured. So conducted a case study and try to prevent the similar accidents from occurring through case studies. The causes of the accident were analyzed as follows: the inflow of outside air due to the generation of a gap on the suction side of the vacuum pump and heating the pipe with the heater jacket resulted in the overpressure in the pipe due to the volumetric expansion of the gas generated by decomposition of the unreacted TEMAZ, It can be assumed that the most vulnerable bellows of the piping has been ruptured. In order to prevent such accidents, This study is aimed to identify the cause of pipeline rupture accident and to establish safety measures for the prevention of similar accidents by evaluating physical hazards of TEMAZ, which is assumed to be the cause of pipe rupture accident.

  • A computational fluid analysis was performed on an LOx line system of a liquid rocket engine. The model was created with 3D CAD and imbedded to the 3D CFD program. Before the full scale analysis on the system was carried out, each components with simplified models was analyzed to save time and cost. As a result, the inlet pressure of the gas generator should be compensated with a certain device unless the inlet pressure of the line system is sufficiently high. The flow pattern of the exit of the system was dependant upon the location of the orifice as well as the size. As a whole the line system analyzed met the requirements, and will be tested and confirmed after being manufactured.

  • A basic design for a Technical Development Model (TDM) of liquid oxygen lines from the turbopump exit to the oxidizer valves of the combustion chamber and the gas generator was conducted to develop a turbopump-fed liquid rocket engine. The TDM is composed of straight lines, elbows, bellows, a branch, an orifice, flanges and a heat insulator. Materials were determined by consideration of operation conditions, weight constraint and manufacturing procedures. The size and the location of each component were determined by flow analysis of the required flowrate and the pressure loss. Basic designs of the components were conducted by consideration of the operating temperature and the maximum expectation operating pressure. The safety factors were evaluated by structural analysis of design of each component.

  • Because general laboratory tests for sand compaction pile method including unit-cell test device have fixed outside diameter, as area replacement ratio increase, diameter of sand pile increase. These condition can bring about overestimation of stiffness of composite ground. In addition, existing large soil box which consist of bellows type loading plate can occur serious mistake in checking the amount of drained water because there are additional drainage along the inside wall in device. Overcoming these shortcoming, this paper developed modified large scale soil box consist of piston type load plate. In this study, using this device, series of modified large scale soil box tests were performed, and investigated the settlement and stress transportation characteristics with area replacement ratio in sand compaction pile method.

  • This paper presents the dynamic characteristics of MR impact damper for vehicle collision system. Various types of mechanism have been proposed to reduce force transmitted to the vehicle chassis and finally to protect occupants from injury. In the case of head-on collision, the bumper makes main role of isolation material for collision attenuation. In this study, the proposed bumper system consists of MR impact damper and structures. The MR impact damper utilizes MR fluid which has reversible properties with applied magnetic field. The MR fluid operates under flow mode. The bellows is used for generation of fluid flow. A mathematical model of the MR impact damper is derived incorporating with Bingham model of the MR fluid. Field dependent damping force is investigated with time and frequency domain. The MR impact damper is then incorporated with vehicle crash system. The governing equation of motion of vehicle model is formulated considering occupant model. Dynamic characteristics of vehicle collision system investigated with computer simulation.

  • In order to reduce the structure borne noise of the equipment sufficiently, its exciting force should be restricted and additional anti-vibration devices such as resilient mount and bellows should be applied. Since the structure borne noise is dependent on the design of the base for the equipment, it is very important to design the base with low vibration. Therefore, in this research, various types of the base design for the shipboard equipment are investigated to reduce the structure borne noise. In order to design the base with low vibration, the exciting force at the center of the gravity of the equipment is firstly defined through the experiment. Using the exciting force identified by experiments, various types of base designs for the typical turbo machine are evaluated by FEM(finite element method) analysis.

  • This work discusses the numerical analysis, the design and experimental test of the SMA actuator along with its capabilities and limitations. Convective heating and cooling using water actuate the SMA(Shape memory alloy) element of the actuator. The fuel such as propane, having a high energy density, is used as the energy source for the SMA actuator in order to increase power and energy density of the system, and thus in order to obviate the need for electrical power supplies such as batteries. The system is composed of a pump, valves, bellows, a heater(burner), control unit and a displacement amplification device. The experimental test of the SMA actuator system results in 150 MPa stress(force : 1560 N) with $3\%$ strain and 0.5 Hz. actuation frequency. The actuation frequency is compared with the prediction obtained from numerical analysis. For the designed SMA actuator system, the results of numerical analysis were utilized in determining design parameters and operating conditions.
