The ratio of disk friction loss in a centrifugal pump is very large for the total pump loss in the range of very low specific speed. Therefore, impeller radius should be shortened to increase the pump efficiency because the disk friction loss is proportional to the fifth power of impeller radius. In order to compensate the decreased head by the shortened impeller radius, vane angle at impeller outlet should be increased. However, as the vane angle at impeller outlet becomes larger, performance instability occurs at low flow rate regions. In this study, J-Groove is adopted to suppress the performance instability and detailed examination is performed for the influence of the J-Groove on the pump performance. The results show that J-Groove gives good effect on the suppression of performance instability. Moreover, as J-Groove increases pump head considerably, the pump size can be smaller for head requirements.

This study conducted a research as to condensation heat transfer friction loss headby using three types of flat micro multi-channel tubes with different processing of micro-fin and number of channels inside the pipes and different sizes of appearances. In addition, identical studies were conducted by using smoothing circular tubes with 5mm external diameter to study heat enhancement factor and pressure drop penalty factor. 1) The friction head loss showed an increase as the vapor quality and mass flux increased. In case of saturation temperature, it shows an increase as it gets lower. These factors are the reason occurring as the lower the saturation temperature is, the higher the density of refrigerant vapor gets. The influence of heat flux is similar as the dryness is low, but as it gets higher, it lowers in heat flux, and as the high temperature of high heat flux, it is a factor that occurs as the density gets lower. 2) RMS error of the in case of friction head loss, it showed to be predicted as 0.45~0.67 by Chisholm, Friedel, Lockhart and Martinelli. 3) As forfriction head loss penalty factor, the smaller the aspect ratio is, the larger the penalty factor gets, and as for the effect of micro-fin, the penalty factor increased because it decreases to the gas fluid the way groove for the refrigerant's flow.

도시 우수 배수 시스템에서 우수 관거는 개수로 흐름 상태로 가정하여 설계되었기 때문에 맨홀에서의 에너지 손실은 일반적으로 중요하게 고려되지 않았다. 그러나 과부하흐름에서 에너지 손실은 관거의 배수능력을 저하시켜 도심지역의 침수피해를 가중시키는 요인이 된다. 그러므로 과부하 맨홀 내에서의 수두 손실을 분석할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 맨홀에 대한 문헌조사 및 현장조사를 실시하여 실험장치 제작과 실험조건을 선정하였다. 선정된 실험조건인 인버트 형상 조건(CASE A, B, C), 단차 조건(CASE I, II, III) 및 실험 유량($1.0\;{\sim}\;5.6\;{\ell}/sec$)을 변화시키면서 실험을 실시하였다. 맨홀 직경($D_m$)과 유입관경($D_{in}$)의 비($D_m/D_{in}$)가 증가할수록 손실계수가 증가하였으며, 맨홀 수심($h_m$)과 유입관거 직경($D_{in}$)의 비($h_m/D_{in}$)가 $1.0{\sim}1.5$일 때 손실계수가 가장 크게 산정되었다. 또한, CASE A, B, C의 평균 손실계수는 각각 0.45, 0.37, 0.3으로 산정되었다. 맨홀에 U자형 인버트를 설치하면, 원형 맨홀에서 에너지 손실을 저감시킬 수 있다. 또한 산정된 맨홀에서의 손실계수는 과부하흐름을 고려한 우수 관거 설계에 활용될 수 있다고 판단된다.

In momentum exchange theory the loss models for the circulatory flow is critically important. But because of lack of loss model on the circulatory flow, analysis model on regenerative turbomachines is not available in the open literature. In the present study circulatory loss is evaluated by combining bend's losses. Through the comparison with the previous experimental data on linear pressure gradient, a combination factor is suggested in terms of the aspect ratio of a channel. Applying this factor to two kinds of regenerative blowers the predicted results are found to be in good agreement with the experimental data of the overall performance and the head distribution along the rotational direction. Especially, the comparison with the head distribution demonstrates the accuracy of hydraulic model and loss model suggested in the present study. And the comparison with the overall performance confirms the validness of physical models as well as loss models suggested in the present study.

도시 우수 배수 시스템에서 우수 관거는 개수로 흐름 상태로 가정하여 설계되었기 때문에 합류맨홀에서의 에너지 손실은 일반적으로 중요하게 고려되지 않았다. 그러나 과부하흐름에서 에너지 손실은 관거의 배수능력을 저하시켜 도심지역의 침수피해를 가중시키는 요인이 된다. 그러므로 과부하 합류맨홀 내에서의 수두 손실을 분석할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 합류맨홀에 대한 문헌조사 및 현장조사를 실시하여 실험장치를 제작하고 실험조건을 선정하였다. 선정된 실험조건인 맨홀 형상 조건(사각형, 원형), 유출유량($Q_3$)에 대한 측면유입유량($Q_2$)의 비($Q_2/Q_3$) 및 실험 유량(2.0, 3.0, $4.0{\ell}$/sec)을 변화시키면서 실험을 실시하였다. $Q_2/Q_3$가 증가할수록 손실계수가 증가하므로 과부하 합류맨홀에서의 손실계수는 측면 유입관로의 유입유량의 영향을 크게 받는다고 판단된다. 맨홀의 형상변화 및 유량변화에 따른 손실계수는 거의 동일하게 산정되었다. 또한, $Q_2/Q_3$와 손실계수의 관계식을 제시하였다.

냉각재상실사고이후 원전의 원자로건물집수조 여과기에서 화학적 영향을 고려한 수두손실을 종합적으로 평가하기 위한 시험장치를 개발하였다. 시험장치에서 원자로건물집수조와 시험장치에서 물 부피에 대한 여과기 면적의 비가 일치하도록 시험조건을 설정하고 시험을 수행하였다. TSP pH 조절제 조건에서 칼슘실리케이트는 시험 초기에 수두손실을 급격히 상승시켰기 때문에 원자로건물에서 모든 칼슘실리케이트를 제거하여야 함을 확인하였다. 비상노심냉각계통 살수지속시간의 차이에 따른 시험결과는 장기살수조건이 단기살수조건에 비해 12배 정도 높은 수두손실을 보였다. 살수조건 시험결과를 화학적 영향이 없는 수두손실과 비교하면 단기살수와 장기살수의 각 조건에서 5.6배 및 60.8배 수두손실이 증가하는 결과를 보였다. 화학적 영향은 재순환수에 노출된 물질의 양에 따라 초기의 일정기간 동안 알루미늄 및 아연도금 판의 부식에 의해 급격히 증가하고 이들이 부동피막을 형성한 이후에는 NUKONTM 및 콘크리트 등에서 침출된 화학종의 침전에 기인하여 증가율이 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 실험결과는 TSP에 의한 알루미늄의 부동피막 형성이 살수시간이 길어지고 알루미늄의 양이 많을 경우 효과적이지 않다는 것을 보였다.

흐름이 연직유공벽을 통과할 때 발생하는 수두손실을 수치해석과 수리실험을 통하여 고찰하였다. 수치 해석에 대해서는 유공벽 전 후의 검사체적에 연속방정식, 모멘텀 방정식, 그리고 에너지 방정식을 적용하였으며 주어진 하류 쪽 수심과 유속에 대하여 상류 쪽 수심 및 유공벽 수두손실을 계산할 수 있는 무차원 관계식을 유도 하였다. 수리실험은 단일유공판과 삼중유공판에 대하여 각각 수행하였다. 단일유공판에 대한 계산결과와 실험결과를 비교하여 유공부 오리피스에서 연직 선형 제트류의 수축계수가 개구율뿐만 아니라 하류 쪽 Froude 수에도 의존함을 밝혔으며, 실험결과에 근거하여 수두손실을 계산하기 위한 실험식을 제시하였다. 단일유공판의 실험식을 삼중유공판에 대하여 하류에서 상류 쪽으로 축차적으로 적용한 결과, 예측치와 실험결과가 대체적으로 잘 일치함을 확인하였다.

Background and Objectives: Many studies have reported no benefit of sound localization, but improved speech understanding in noise after treating patients with single-sided deafness (SSD). Furthermore, their performances provided a large individual difference. The present study aimed to measure the ability of speech perception and gap detection in noise for the SSD patients to better understand their hearing nature. Subjects and Methods: Nine SSD patients with different onset and period of hearing deprivation and 20 young adults with normal hearing and simulated conductive hearing loss as the control groups conducted speech perception in noise (SPIN) and Gap-In-Noise (GIN) tests. The SPIN test asked how many presented sentences were understood at the +5 and -5 dB signal-to-noise ratio. The GIN test was asked to find the shortest gap in white noise with different lengths in the gap. Results: Compared to the groups with normal hearing and simulated instant hearing loss, the SSD group showed much poor performance in both SPIN and GIN tests while supporting central auditory plasticity of the SSD patients. Rather than a longer period of deafness, the large individual variance indicated that the congenital SSD patients showed better performance than the acquired SSD patients in two measurements. Conclusions: The results suggested that comprehensive assessments should be implemented before any treatment of the SSD patient considering their onset time and etiology, although these findings need to be generalized with a large sample size.

Background: The study aimed to evaluate the effect of prehydration solution on hearing thresholds after cisplatin chemotherapy. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, we reviewed the data of patients who underwent ≥3 courses of cisplatin-based chemotherapy for locally advanced head and neck cancers at a tertiary referral center (n=64). The dextrose solution (DW) group (n=26) received 2 L of normal saline and 1 L of 5% dextrose. The Hartmann solution (HS) group (n=38) received 2 L of normal saline and 1 L of HS. Hearing data were measured 1 day before starting the first course of chemotherapy, and again 20 days after the first, second, and third courses of chemotherapy. The severity of hearing loss was evaluated using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE). Results: Thresholds at all frequencies after chemotherapy were greater in the DW group than in the HS group. The increase in thresholds in 1 to 4 kHz after the third course of chemotherapy was greater in the DW group than in the HS group. CTCAE grades after the second and third courses of chemotherapy were greater in the DW group than in the HS group. Logistic regression showed that the odds ratio for CTCAE grade 3 or 4 after the third course of chemotherapy in the DW group was 4.84 on univariate analysis. Conclusion: Prehydration using a solution with salt was associated with a decrease in change in hearing thresholds after cisplatin chemotherapy in patients with head and neck cancers.
