  • Gaskets are usually used for the sealing of flange joints. The joint is usually composed of two flanges, a ring gasket and clamping bolts. The metal ring gasket is suitable for pipe flanges, pumps and valve joints in high temperature and high pressure environments. A very high surface stress is developed between a ring type joint gasket and the flange groove when the ring type joint is bolted up in a flange. The dimensions of flanges and ring joint gaskets for the pipe sizes that are in common use are specified in the ANSI codes. However, sometimes it is necessary to make a new design for the flange joint which is not specified in the codes, as the equipment is getting larger and larger in size. This paper presents the contact behavior of Class 600 ring joint gaskets with oval and octagonal cross sections. Five different sizes of gaskets are employed in the analysis, and one of them is newly designed on the basis of analysis results obtained from existing models. Three load steps are used to find the stress, stain and contact pressure etc., and to compare the contact characteristics among the models due to the bolt clamping force and the working surface pressure. ANSYS Workbench version15 is used to conduct the finite element analysis.

  • The Mooney-Rivlin second order optimal strain energy function derived through uniaxial tensile test and analysis was applied to a gasket to confirm the internal stress and surface pressure generated during compression. The Taguchi method, a statistical technique, was used to design the optimum shape of the gasket, and through characteristic evaluation, the optimum shape of the gasket was obtained when the reference plane (T: 0.15 mm), contact surface (W: 1.00 mm), and curvature (R: 0.30 mm) were used. It was determined that the optimum shape yields a von Mises stress of 4.83 MPa, and the contact pressure stress is 20.14 MPa, which satisfies breakage and sealing requirements. In the future, we plan to manufacture a jig that can measure surface pressure to conduct comparative verification studies between the test results and analysis results.

  • PHOLED devices which have the structure of ITO/HAT-CN(5nm)/NPB(50nm)/EML(30nm)/TPBi(10nm)/Alq3(20nm)/LiF(0.8nm)/Al(100nm) are fabricated to investigate the green emission profile in EML by using a gasket doping method. CBP and Ir(ppy)3 (2% wt) are co-deposited homogeneously as a background material of EML for green PHOLED, then a 5nm thickness of additionally doped layer by Ir(btp)2 (8% wt) is formed as a profiler of the green emission. The total thickness of the EML is maintained at 30nm while the distance of the profiler from the HTL/EML interface side (x) is changed in 5nm steps from 0nm to 25nm. As shown in Fig. 1, the green (513nm) peak from Ir(ppy)3 is not observed when Ir(btp)2 is also doped homogeneously because Ir(ppy)3 works as an gasket dopant of the Ir(btp)2 :CBP system. Therefore, in this experment, Ir(btp)2 can be used as a profiler of the green emission in CBP:Ir(ppy)3 system. The emission spectra from the PHOLED devices with different x are shown in Fig. 2. In this gasket doping system, stronger red peak means more energy transfer from green to red dopant or higher exciton density by green dopant. To find the green emission profile, the external quantum efficiency (EQE) at 3mA/cm2 for red peaks are calculated. More green light emission at near EML/HBL interface than that of HTL/EML is observed (insert of Fig. 2). This means that the higher exciton density at near EML/HBL interface in homogeneously doped CBP with Ir(ppy)3. As shown in Fig. 3, excitons can be quenched easily to HTL(NPB) because the T1 level of HTL(2.5eV) is relatively lower than that of EML(2.6eV). On the other hand, the T1 level of HBL(2.7eV) is higher than that of EML.

  • In this study, the performance of water tightness of water expansional sealing material and gasket was evaluated. The water tightness test was performed varying the type of inner pressure condition, for which the water expansional sealing material was inundated for 5 days to evaluate the ability of water tightness. In order to carry out this test, we made use of two types of water expansional sealing material; general type and combined type with non-expansional rubber. In the case of gasket, EPDM gasket and complex gasket sticked to the water expansional sealing material were applied. The performance of water tightness depended on the construction defect and the deformation of segment. The construction defect and segment deformation were generally expressed by gap and offset of the construction joint. The results, of tests showed that the performance of water tightness was largely influenced by the gap between segments. Management criteria of gap and offset were proposed.

  • We examined the properties of compound and made compound of the optimum state using the properties of each material to evaluate suitability of FKM, VMQ, EPDM, NBR with gasket for fuel cell which is in general use with the material of gasket. It could be found from the compound made with setting the optimum state that NBR is worse than FKM in the chemical property of matter for a long term, and VMQ is worse than FKM in the elution of a metal ion, and EPDM is worse than FKM in the permeability of gas. As a result of leak evaluation of gasket for fuel cell with using FKM, it appeared leak in short time when contracting pressure is getting lower and sealing pressure is getting higher. And as a result of the life prediction with using Arrhenius model, we could predict that it is possible to continuously drive for 60,000 hours.

  • 1)sector chamber II에서 가장 우려되었던 J5, J8의 변형량이 $28\mu\textrm{m}$,$36\mu\textrm{m}$ 이었으므로 목표 값 $50\mu\textrm{m}$을 충분히 보증할 수 있다. 2) Helicoflex gasket type으로 제작된 초도품 챔버에서는 140.deg.C bake-out후 이온 펌프만 으로 20시간 진공배기한 후의 진공도는 2*$10^{-9}$ Torr에 도달하였으며, 용접 type으로 제 작된 챔버에서는 2*$10^{-10}$ Torr에 도달하여서 진공도도 우수하였다. 3)표면조도에 민감한 Helicoflex gasket를 사용하지 않고 알루미늄 플랜지를 용접하여 AI gasketc 를 이용할 수 있기 때문에 초도품챔버에서와 같이 알루미늄 챔버와 스텐레스 스틸 부품을 연결하 는 stainless spool piece가 필요하지 않게 된다. 4)고가의 helicoflex gasket을 쓰지 않으므로 가격절감을 할 수 있다.

  • Based on a n-regular polygon $P_n$, we show that $r_n = 1/(2 \sum^{[(n-4)/4]+1}_{j=0}{cos 2j\pi/n)}$ is the ratio of contractions $f_i(1 \leq i \leq n)$ at each vertex of $P_n$ yielding a symmetric gasket $G_n$ associated with the just-touching I.F.S. $g_n = {f_i $\mid$ 1 \leq i \leq n}$. Moreover we see that for any odd n, the ratio $r_n$ is still valid for just-touching I.F.S $H_n = {f_i \circ R $\mid$ 1 \leq i \leq n}$ yielding another symmetric gasket $H_n$ where R is the $\pi/n$-rotation with respect to the center of $P_n$.

  • Finite element analysis of cylinder heat/block compound under assembly, thermal and firing condition were performed. FE model including two cylinders with gasket, head bolts, liners and valve seats was used. FE modeling method and boundary conditions were introduced. Stress distribution and deformation of cylinder head and block under each loading condition were presented. Gasket pressure distribution and bore distortion level were predicted. Measured data of bore distortion was compared with the analysis results. The analysis result showed similar trends with the experimental data. High cycle fatigue analysis on the basis of this result has been performed in order to find the critical areas of the engine assembly.

  • An acceleration life test for rubber gasket of pole transformer was performed. The Arrhenius method was applied as an accelerated degradation test. The failure mode was considered as an elongation, and the failure mechanism is counted as a heat. It is found that both the current material(NBR: Nitrile Butadiene Rubber) and recommended alternative material(HNBR: Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber) have the same Weibull distribution as a life characteristic. For life expectation 95% reliability level of characteristic life is used at using temperature. The test results for NBR and HNBR are 7.7 years and 28.0 years on $50^{\circ}C$ of using temperature, respectively.
