In order to develop a universal cryogenic piston pump of small size for increasing utilization of liquid hydrogen, dynamic compression performance of piston pump were evaluated and improvements were also discussed for piston rod and piston tip. The cryogenic piston pump has crosshead structure and inclined cup shape piston tip. As the results, it was found that i) insulation of heat flow from piston-rod part is required for stable operation ii) improving the self-clearance adjustment effect of piston tip and reducing piston eccentricity were desirable to promote pumping pressure and operating range.

A rotating cryogenic system was designed similar to the cooling system for the rotor of a superconducting generator. The experimental rotor has an inner vessel which simulates the winding space of an actual superconducting rotor, and a torque tube of comparable design. This paper describes the evaluation of the total heat leak into the inner vessel that leads to the study of the heat transfer characteristic of the rotating cryogenic system. To examine the insulation performance of the experimental rotor. temperature was measured at each part of the system at various rotaing speeds from 0 rpm to 600 rpm. Total heat leak into the inner vessel was calculated by measuring the boil-off rate of liquid helium. Conduction heat leak to the inner vessel was obtained by the vent tube, and radiation heat leak was calculated by subtracting the conduction heat lent from the total heat leak. There seemed to be no rotaional dependency of total heat leak at least up 600 rpm.

The application of a cryogenic storage system is growing fast in different kinds of fields including to keep umbilical cord blood. Umbilical cord blood stem plays an important role in the treatment of a blood and immune system related genetic diseases, cancers and blood disorders. This study gives the optimal cryogenic system for cord blood banking. Three-dimensional models are employed and finite element method is used to do structure analyses of all designed models. The results shows model 3 have a good structure properties, and model 4 shows the best structure property as its maximum is 92.9 MPa. The other is too dangerous or infeasible to support load condition that allowed by STS 304. The results can be used in the design of these kinds of systems to obtain good predictions of trends over a wide range of design alternatives and operating conditions.

In order to investigate the effect of cryogenic rolling on the critical current density (Jc), 54 and 55-multi-filament Bi-2223/hg tapes have been fabricated using a PIT process including two different types of cooling methods. The densification of oxide filament was found to occur due to the cryogenic rolling, and this enhanced the critical current density. However, when the wire was fully immersed in liquid nitrogen used as the coolant in cryogenic rolling, Jc degradation appeared caused by the nitrogen penetration into the filament. The cryogenically rolled tape with an improved type of cooling showed approximately 10％ Jc's increase.

A research on several characteristics such as volume breakdown and surface discharge of insulators for a termination of power transmission class HTS cable was performed. We investigated the surface discharge of glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) under air, cryogenic nitrogen gas and nitrogen gas media. The breakdown characteristics of these media were studied. Experimental results revealed that flashover voltage greatly depends on pressure, temperature, the kinds of insulating media and voltages, but it is slightly affected by shape and material of electrode. The breakdown voltage of liquid nitrogen, cryogenic nitrogen gas and nitrogen gas deeply depends on the shape and dimension of electrode, kinds of voltages and pressure. Moreover, the breakdown voltage of cryogenic nitrogen gas and flashover voltage of GFRP in the cryogenic nitrogen gas is also influenced by temperature and vapour-mist density of the gas.

에너지 위기 시대를 맞이하여 수소에너지가 가장 가능성 있는 대체에너지 중의 하나로 고려되고 있다. 액체수소는 기체수소와 비교하여 단위 부피당 에너지 밀도가 월등히 높으며 수소에너지의 탁월한 저장 방법으로 간주되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 2 상 모델에 기초를 둔 Navier-Stokes 식을 전산유체역학 프로그램을 이용하여 풀었으며, 초저온 냉각 튜브를 통과하면서 기체수소가 액화되는 과정을 분석하였다. 열전도율이 높은 구리관을 초저온 냉각을 위한 관의 재질로 가정하였다. 기체수소의 유입속도를 5 cm/s, 10 cm/s, 20 cm/s로 변화시키면서 냉각튜브 내 유체 온도분포, 축방향 및 반경방향 유체 속도, 기체 및 액체 수소 부피분율 분포를 각각 분석하였다. 본 연구 결과는 향후 액체수소 제조를 위한 기체수소 초저온 냉각기의 설계 및 제작을 위한 기초자료로 활용이 될 것으로 기대된다.

지금까지 관행적으로 액체의 누출은 순간누출과 연속누출로 분류 되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 분류의 문제점을 인식하고 새로운 분류 방법을 찾기 위하여 제한된 시간 동안 누출되는 극저온 액체의 확산에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 이러한 물리적 현상은 누출된 액체풀의 부피, 반경, 높이에 관한 연립방정식에 의해 지배되며, 주요 변수는 단위면적당 증발률, 누출시간, 누출량의 3 개 이다. 섭동법에 의한 해를 효율적으로 구하기 위하여 독립된 형태의 부피에 관한 2차 미분방정식을 얻었다. 이 새로운 지배 방정식은 기존의 방법에 비하여 매우 간단하게 해를 얻을 수 있게 한다. 섭동해의 결과, 동일한 누출량인 경우에 누출시간이 작으면 연속누출이 순간누출로 이어지는 혼합 형태의 누출이 되나, 누출시간이 크게 되면 연속누출 형태로만 존재하게 된다. 동일한 누출시간의 경우에는 누출량이 작으면 연속누출 형태로만 존재하지만, 누출량이 증가할수록 혼합형태의 누출로 된다. 이러한 2개의 영역을 분할하는 경계를 섭동해를 이용하여 해석적으로 제시함으로서 누출의 새로운 분류에 대한 명확한 근거를 제시 하였다.

A Superconducting Fault Current Limiter is an electric power device which limits the fault current immediately in a power grid. The SFCL must be cooled to below the critical temperature of high temperature superconductor modules. In general, they are submerged in sub-cooled liquid nitrogen for their stable thermal characteristics. To cool and maintain the target temperature and pressure of the sub-cooled liquid nitrogen, the cryogenic cooling system should be designed well with a cryocooler and coolant circulation devices. The pressure of the cryostat for the SFCL should be pressurized to suppress the generation of nitrogen bubbles in quench mode of the SFCL. In this study, we tested the performance of the cooling system for the prototype 154 kV SFCL, which consist of a Stirling cryocooler, a subcooling cryostat, a pressure builder and a main cryostat for the SFCL module, to verify the design of the cooling system and the electric performance of the SFCL. The normal operation condition of the main cryostat is 71 K and 500 kPa. This paper presents tests results of the overall cooling system.

An experiment was carried out to evaluate the heat transfer enhancement and the pressure drop characteristics for liquid nitrogen using wire-coil-insert technique under horizontal two-phase conditions. The tube inner diameters were 8 mm and 15 mm, respectively and the tube length was 4.7 m. The helix angle of the wire coil insert was $50^{\circ}$ and its length was 4.7 m. Heat transfer coefficients for both the plain and the enhanced test tubes were calculated from the measurements of temperatures, flow rates and pressure drops. A correlation in a power-law relationship of the Nusselt number, Reynolds number and Prandtl number for the heat transfer was proposed which can be available for design of cryogenic heat exchangers. The correlation showed that heat transfer coefficients for the wire-coil inserts were much higher than those for plain tubes, increased by more than $1.8{\sim}2.0$ times depending upon the range of the equivalent Reynolds number. The correlation was compared with other various correlations in the turbulent flow conditions.
