  • This paper consider an initially deformed state caused by the pressurized fluid flowing through the pipe at a constant velocity. When the initial forte is neglected in curved pipes, the natural frequencies are reduced as flow velocity increases. However, when the initial tension took into account, the natural frequencies are not changed with the change of the flow velocity. As the internal pipe pressure is increased the natural frequencies are also slightly increased. In free vibrational simulation of piping systems in petrochemical plants, it is necessary to calculate the initial state force due to the velocity and the pressure of the fluid flow from the equilibrium first, then the force should be included in the equation of motion of the systems to get more accurate natural frequencies. In this study, calculate the mass matrix and stiffness matrix of piping system by MATLAB

  • The stability of a rotating cantilever pipe conveying fluid with a crack and tip mass is investigated by the numerical method. That is, the effects of the rotating angular velocity, mass ratio, crack severity and tip mass on the critical flow velocity for flutter instability of system are studied. The equations of motion of rotating pipe are derived by using the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and the extended Hamilton's principle. The crack section of pipe is represented by a local flexibility matrix connecting two undamaged pipe segments. Also, the crack is assumed to be in the first mode of fracture and always opened during the vibrations. When the tip mass and crack are constant, the critical flow velocity for flutter is proportional to the rotating angular velocity of pipe. In addition, the stability maps of the rotating pipe system as a rotating angular velocity and mass ratio ${\beta}$ are presented.

  • Due to advances in digital image processing, computer and optical hardware, it is possible to extract full flow information from visualized flow images. Recently, the PIV/PTV methods have been accepted as a reliable velocity field measurement technique. In my laboratory, several velocity field measurement techniques have been developed and they were applied to various thermo-fluid flow problems. In this paper, some of the industrial applications will be discussed. As a result, the PIV/PTV technique was proved to be a powerful tool for industrial fluid flow diagnosis.

  • The influence of unsteady boundary layer magnetohydrodynamic flow with thermal relaxation of perfectly conducting fluid, past a semi-infinite plate, is considered. The governing non linear partial differential equations are solved using the method of successive approximations. This method is used to obtain the solution for the unsteady boundary layer magnetohydrodynamic flow in the special form when the free stream velocity exponentially depends on time. The effects of Alfven velocity $\alpha$ on the velocity is discussed, and illustrated graphically for the problem.

  • The dynamic instability and natural frequency of an axially moving pipe conveying fluid are investigated. Thus, the effects of fluid velocity and moving speed on the stability of the system are studied. The governing equation of motion of the moving pipe conveying fluid is derived from the extended Hamilton's principle. The eigenvalues are investigated for the pipe system via the Galerkin method under the simple support boundary. Numerical examples show the effects of the fluid velocity and moving speed on the stability of system. Moreover, the lowest critical moving speeds for the simply supported ends have been presented.

  • In this paper a dynamic behavior of simply supported cracked pipe conveying fluid with the moving mass is presented. Based on the Timoshenko beam theory, the equation of motion can be constructed by using the Lagrange's equation. The crack section is represented by a local flexibility matrix connecting two undamaged beam segments i.e. the crack is modelled as a rotational spring. This flexibility matrix defines the relationship between the displacements and forces across the crack section and is derived by applying fundamental fracture mechanics theory. And the crack is assumed to be in th first mode of fracture. As the depth of the crack and velocity of fluid are increased the mid-span deflection of the pipe conveying fluid with the moving mass is increased. As depth of the crack is increased, the effect that the velocity of the fluid on the mid-span deflection appears more greatly.

  • We present a monolithic semi-implicit algorithm for solving fluid-structure interaction problem at small structural displacements. The algorithm uses one global mesh for the fluid-structure domain obtained by gluing the fluid and structure meshes which are matching on the interface. The continuity of velocity at the interface is automatically satisfied and the continuity of stress does not appear explicitly in the global weak form due to the action and reaction principle. At each time step, we have to solve a monolithic system of unknowns velocity and pressure defined on the global fluid-structure domain. Numerical results are presented.

  • The KSNP Steam Generators (Youngkwang Unit 3 and 4, Ulchin Unit 3 and 4) have a problem of U-tube fretting wear due to Flow Induced Vibration (FIV). In particular, the wear is localized and concentrated in a small area of upper part of U-bend in the Central Cavity region. The region has some conditions susceptible to the FIV, which are high flow velocity, high void fraction, and long unsupported span. Even though the FIV could be occurred by many mechanisms, the main mechanism would be fluid-elastic instability, or turbulent excitation. To remedy the problem, Eggcrate Flow Distribution Plate (EFDP) was installed in the Central Cavity region or Ulchin Unit 5 and 6 steam generators, so that it reduces the flow velocity in the region to a certain level. However, the cause of the FIV and the effectiveness of the EFDP was not thoroughly studied and checked. In this study, therefore the Stability Ratio (SR), which is the ratio of the actual velocity to the critical velocity, was compared between the value before the installation of EFDP and that after. Also the possibility of fluid-elastic instability of KSNP steam generator and the effectiveness of EFDP were checked based on the ATHOS3 code calculation and the Pettigrew's experimental results. The calculated results were plotted in a fluid-elastic instability criteria-diagram (Pettigrew, 1998, Fig. 9). The plotted result showed that KSNP steam generator with EFDP had the margin of Fluid-Elastic Instability by almost 25%.
