In the present study, the steady, incompressible, isothermal, developing flow in a 90.deg. rectangular cross sectional strongly curved duct with aspect ratio 1:1.5 and Reynolds number of 9.4*10$^{4}$ has been investigated. Measurements of components of mean velocities, pressures, and corresponding components of the Reynolds stress tensor are obtained with a hot-wire anemometer and pitot tube. In general, flow in a curved duct is characterized by the secondary vortices which are driven mainly by centrifugal force-radial pressure gradient imbalance, and the stress field stabilizing effects near the convex wall and destablizing effects close to the concave wall. It was found that the secondary mean velocities attain values up to 39% of the bulk velocity and are largely responsible for the convections of Reynolds stress in the cross stream plane. Therefor upstream of the bend the Reynolds stress are low. Corresponding to the small boundary layer thickness. At successive planes, large values of Reynolds stress were observed near the concave surface and the side wall.

A basic procedure to design marine propellers by a curved lifting line theory was shown. By adapting discrete singularity method, it became possible to take into account of skew, rake and the contraction of slip stream in the early stage of preliminary design procedure. It is also shown that lifting line theory based on the discrete singularity method converges to a common solution obtained by induction factor method with a relatively small number of discrete elements. Lifting the blade geometry more accurately on the basis of hydrodynamic principles. A number of numerical results from lifting line calculation are presented for the purpose of comparison with the previous method, and with these results two sample designs are carried out, which are wake-adapted optimum and wake-adapted non-optimum propellers.

The flow in meandering channel has a great influence on curved bank revetment in river morphology. It is difficult to state generalized cirteria for channel improvement applicable to any paricular river. But it is very important to provide some principles and guidelines for design engineers. The objective of this experimental study in fixed bed model is to povide effective data that find out maximum velocity size by the mean velocity and the radius of curvature in curved channel, for the purpose of improving small stream without hydraulic modeling test each time.

This study investigates the flow characteristics and bed changes with discharge using a two-dimensional numerical model, Nays2DH. The water depth at the outer part of curved channel is formed deeper from the narrow part after passing through the curved part. The point bar is developed in the wide section and water depth is shallow in the inside of the curved section. The flow is concentrated in the outer pater of the meandering section, which leads to the deep water. In the downstream section where the straight line formed, the flow is concentrated at the center of the bed. Alternating deep water and shallow places are generated due to the continuous formation of meandering. These characteristics are formed by the influence of strong two-stream flow in meandering stream. The dimensionless tractive force is also large in the region where the flow velocity is concentrated. However, in the narrow and sharp meandering river reaches, the pattern of bed changes and the spatial distribution patterns of flow velocity and dimensionless tractive force are inconsistent in the narrow and sharp meandered reaches due to the strong secondary flow.

An experimental study of decaying swirl air flow has been obtained by tangential inlet in a straight tube with Reynolds number range 20,000~40,000. The friction factor, swirl angle, velocity profiles and turbulent intensity are measured by using micro-manometer and hot-wire anemometer. It is found that the swirl flow behaviors depend on the swirl intensity along the test tube.

Feedwater heaters of many nuclear power plants have recently experienced severe wall thinning damage, which will increase as operating time progresses. Several nuclear power plants in Korea have experienced wall thinning damage in the area around the impingement baffle inside feedwater heater installed downstream of the turbine extraction stream line. At that point, the extract steam from the turbine is two phase fluid at high temperature, high pressure, and high speed. Since it flows to reverse direction after impinging the impingement baffle, the shell wall of feedwater heaters may be affected by flow-accelerated corrosion. In this paper, to compare degree of shell wall thinning mitigation rate to squared type with mitigation rate of other type baffle plate, four different types of impingement baffle plate-squared, curved, mitigating type and multi-hole type-applied inside the shell. With these comparison data, this paper describes operation of experiments and numerical analysis which is composed similar condition with real feed water heater. And flow visualization is operated for verification of experiments and numerical analysis. In conclusion, this study shows that mitigating type and multi-hole type baffle plate are more effective than other baffle plate about prevention of pressure concentration and pressure value decrease.

Feedwater heaters of many nuclear power plants have recently experienced severe wall thinning damange, which will increase as operating time progresses. Several nuclear power plants in Korea have experienced wall thinning damage in the area around the impingement baffle-installed downstream of the high pressure turbine extraction stream line- inside number 5A and 5B feedwater heaters. At that point, the extracted steam from the high pressure turbine is two phase fluid at high temperature, high pressure, and high speed. Since it flows in reverse direction after impinging the impingement baffle, the shell wall of the number 5 high pressure feedwater heater may be affected by flow-accelerated corrosion. This paper describes operation of experience and numerical analysis composed similar condition with real high pressure feedwater heater. This study applied squared, curved and new type impingement baffle plates to feedwater heater same as previous study. In addition, it shows difference of pressure distribution and value between single phase and two phase based on experience and numerical analysis.

The spermatogenesis of Korean slug, Incilaria fruhstorferi are observed by electron microscope. The results are as follows: The spermatogenesis of Korean slug, Incilaria fruhstorferi, is processed through the five stages; Spermatogonia, primary spermatocyte, secondary spematocyte, spermatid and spermatozoon. The spermiogenesis, the differentiation of the spermatid, is also processed through the five stages. In stage 1, the numerous and round mitochomdria in the cytoplasm are moved around the nucleus of spermatid. In stage 2, the nucleus of spermatid transformed into the oval shape, and the oval nucleus is surrounded by many rough endoplasmic reticulum. In stage 3, the oval nucleus of spermatid is changed to be curved as an arrow, and then two centrioles appeared behind nucleus. The centriole is sucked into the cytoplasm. and almost all the chromatins are changed into heterochromatins. In stage 4, the nucleus of spermatid are transformed into the oval shape, when the lamella plate chromatin of spermatid form in the nucleoplasm. In stage 5, the oval nucleus is then transformed into the stream-line shape when the lamella plate chromatin of spematid gradually concentrated in the nucleus, and long axoneme ($65{\mu}m$ in length) form from the distal centriole. Two long mitochondria in the middle piece and the main piece of spermatozoon array spirally along a long axoneme, and the mitochondria matrix is gradually filled with electron-dense glycogen particles ($0.1{\mu}m$ in size). The axoneme of spermatozoon consists of typical 9+2 microtubular pattern.
