When draining takes place through an axially located drain port in a cylindrical tank without any prevent, a vortex with an air core occurs. In this study, semi spherical concave and convex meshes with different size inner hole are used to find the air core can suppress. The study is carried out with different values of inner hole of mesh and different install direction of semi spherical mesh using PIV and measured velocity distribution. By providing a mesh, the air core can be prevented, even if the ratio of inner hole of mesh and diameter of cylinder is around 0.66. The experimental results show that a convex mesh type is more effective to suppress the air core generation than a concave mesh type.

Marine structures are often in contact with inner or outer fluid as stern, ballast and oil tanks. The effect of interaction between fluid and structure has to be taken into consideration when we estimate the dynamic response of the structure appropriately. Fatigue damages can also be sometimes observed in these tanks which seem to be caused by resonance. Thin walled tank structures in ships which are in contact with water and located near engine or propeller where vibration characteristics are strongly affected by the added mass of containing water. Therefore it is essentially important to estimate the added mass effect to predict vibration characteristics of tank structures. But it is difficult to estimate exactly the magnitude of the added mass because this is a fluid-structure interaction problem and is affected by the free surface, vibration modes of structural panels and the depth of water. I have developed a numerical tool of vibration analysis of 3-dimensional tank structure using finite elements for plates and boundary elements for fluid region. In the present study, the effect of added mass of containing water, the effect of structural constraint between panels on the vibration characteristics are investigated numerically and discussed. Especially a natural frequencies by the fluid interaction between 2 panels and a breath mode of the water tank are focused on.

Many tanks are installed in ship and marine structures. They are often in contact with inner or outer fluid, like ballast, fuel and cargo tanks. Fatigue damages are sometimes observed in these tanks which seem to be caused by resonance with exciting force of engine and propeller. Vibration characteristics of these thin walled tanks in contact with fluid near engine and propeller are strongly affected by added mass of containing fluid. Therefore it is essentially important to estimate the added mass effect to predict vibration of the tanks. Many authors have studied vibration of cylindrical and rectangular tanks containing fluid. Few research on dynamic interaction among tank walls through fluid are reported in the vibration of rectangular tanks recently. In case of rectangular tanks, structural coupling between adjacent panels and effect of vibration modes of multiple panels on added mass have to be considered. In the previous report, A numerical tool of vibration analysis of a 3-dimensional tank is developed by using finite element method for plates and boundary element method for fluid region. In this paper, the coupling effect between panels of a tank on added mass of containing fluid, the effect of structural constraint between panels on each vibration mode for fluid region and mode characteristics in accordance with changing breadth of the plates are investigated numerically and discussed.

The drilling mud is essentially used in oil and gas development. There are several roles of using the drilling mud, such as cleaning the bottomhole, cooling and lubricating the drill bit and string, transporting the cuttings to the surface, keeping and adjusting the wellbore pressure, and preventing the collapse of the wellbore. The fragments from rocks and micro-sized bubbles generated by the high pressure are mixed in the drilling mud. The systems to separate those mixtures and to keep the uniformly maintained quality of drilling mud are required. In this study, the simulation is conducted to verify the performance of the mud tank's agitation capacity. The primary role of the mud tank is the mixing of mud at the surface with controlling the mud condition. The container type is chosen as a mud tank pursuing efficient transport and better management of equipment. The single- and two-phase simulations about the agitation in the mud tank are performed to analyze and identify the inner flow behavior. The convergence of results is obtained for the vertical- and axis-direction velocity vector fields based on the grid-dependency tests. The mixing time analysis depending on the multiphase flow conditions indicates that the utilization of a two-stepped impeller with a smaller size provides less time for mixing. This study's results are expected to be utilized as the preliminary data to develop the mixing and integrating equipment of the onshore drilling mud system.

음향 공명 이론을 이용하여 단일층 원통형 껍질 속 내부 물질의 음향 식별을 연구하였다. 원통형 껍질의 이론적인 공명 피크 주파수들은 내부 물질의 밀도 변화에 의해서는 거의 영향을 받지 않으나, 음속 변화에 의해서는 두드러지게 변화를 보인다. 이와 같은 음향 의존성을 원통형 껍질 속 내부 물질을 식별하는 데 활용할 수 있다. 단일층 원통형 껍질에 대한 음향 공명 스펙트로그램을 정규화 주파수 및 내부 물질 음속의 함수로서 이론적으로 작성한다. 이 스펙트로그램에 측정한 후방 산란 음압장의 음향 공명 피크들을 중첩함으로써 내부 물질을 음향학적으로 식별할 수 있다. 이를 실험적으로 확인하기 위하여 물, 기름 또는 에틸렌글리콜을 넣은 원통형 껍질의 후방 산란 음압장을 수조 안에서 측정하였다. 단일 송수신 방식으로 중심주파수 1.05 MHz인 음파 변환기로 측정한 후방 산란 음압장의 음향 공명 피크로 내부 물질을 식별할 수 있었다.

여러 복합재료 제작기법 중에서 필라멘트 와인딩 제작 기법은 압력탱크, 파이프 등과 같은 실린더 형태의 축대칭 구조물의 제작에 가장 효율적인 방법이다. 또한, 필라멘트 와인딩으로 제작된 복합재료 압력탱크는 운용 중 큰 내압을 받게 되며 복잡한 손상 메커니즘과 파손 모드를 가지고 있다. 그러므로, 필라멘트 와인딩으로 제작된 복합재료 압력탱크는 탱크의 제작 과정과 제작 후 전 과정 동안의 탱크에 대한 건전성 모니터링이 필요하며 이를 위해 탱크의 제작 시부터 탱크 내부의 여러 지점에 센서가 삽입 적용되어야 한다. 여러 센서 중에서 광섬유 센서는 복합재료 내부에 삽입이용이한 센서이며 특히, 광섬유 브래그 격자 센서(fiber Bragg grating Sensors, FBG센서)는 다중화(multiplexing)가 용이한 것을 큰 장점으로 가장 많이 채택되고 있다. 하지만, FBG 센서를 필라멘트 와인딩된 복합재료 압력탱크에 성공적으로 삽입 적용하기 위해서는 극심한 탱크의 삽입 환경에 대한 센서의 삽입 기법의 개발이 선행되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 필라멘트 와인딩된 복합재료 압력탱크의 제작 시 FBG 센서를 탱크 내부에 다중화하여 삽입적용하기 위한 기법에 대하여 연구하였다.

최근 LNG 저장탱크 시장에서는 지상식 멤브레인 LNG 저장탱크의 대용량화 용이성, 친환경성, 내부탱크로부터의 낮은 누출 가능성(완만한 누출속도의 증가) 등의 장점으로 동 탱크의 건설에 대한 적극적인 검토가 이루어지고 있다. 이 논문에서는 고장수목분석법(FTA)을 활용하여 기존의 완전방호식 LNG 저장탱크와의 비교 위험성평가를 통해 멤브레인 LNG 저장탱크의 안전성을 분석하였다. 위험성평가 결과는 추가적인 안전장치를 갖지 않는 초기 멤브레인 LNG 저장탱크를 제외하고 두 형식의 LNG 저장탱크가 매우 유사한 위험수준을 가지는 것으로 나타났다.

Greenhouses should be heated during nights and co Id days in order to fit growth conditions in greenhouses. Ground source heat pump(GSHP) or geothermal heat pump system(GHPs) is recognized to be outstanding heating and cooling system. Horizontal GSHP system is typically less expensive than vertical GSHP system but requires wide ground area to bury ground heat exchanger (GHE). In this study, a horizontal GSHP system with thermal storage tank was installed in greenhouse and investigated as performance characteristics. In the daytime, heating load of greenhouse is very small or needless because solar radiation increases inner air temperature. The results of study showed that the heating coefficient of performance of the heat pump($COP_h$) was 2.9 and the overall heating coefficient of performance of the system($COP_{sys}$) was 2.4. Heating energy cost was saved 76% using the horizontal GSHP system with thermal storage tank.

This paper shows the Development of In-tank pressure regulator and Solenoid Valve used in FCV(Fuel Cell Vehicle). We have developed new type of Regulator and Solenoid through analysis of the structure and characteristics of component of FCS(Fuel Cell System) from the advanced technology. Now it is possible to localize the component by making use of the development of Regulator and Solenoid made by us. Regulator and Solenoid is a equipment to control hydrogen pressure supplied into a stack. Therefore, outlet pressure, a flow of fluid and temperature are important parameters according to a inlet pressure. And leak test, endurance test and burst test should be done to guarantee the performance and safety of Regulator and Solenoid used in the fuel of high pressure. Also, Hydrogen friendly materials are applied to inner parts of the Regulator, Solenoid and weight reduction is done to cost saving in part not related to performance. As a result, we have proven the good performance and reliability in endurance of Regulator, Solenoid and will make an development in performance as well as durability to ensure industrialization.
