Determination of weld-induced residual stress has been an important issue in nuclear power industry because several failures were reported in dissimilar metal weld parts due to primary water stress corrosion cracking. In this context, a couple of remarkable round robin analyses were conducted to quantify the welding simulation variables and to establish optimized numerical analysis process. The purpose of the present research is to introduce welding simulation results for a safety and relief nozzle, which has a dissimilar metal weld part as well as a similar metal weld part. First, finite element analyses are carried out to calculate residual stresses at the inside of nozzle considering only dissimilar metal welding. Subsequently, residual stresses taking into account both the dissimilar and similar metal welding are computed. The similar metal weld effect is evaluated by compa

금속 소재의 열구조 안정성을 파악하기 위해 고체연료 추진기관의 노즐에 대해 열구조 해석을 수행하였다. 금속 소재 노즐은 짧은 연소 시간이지만 고온, 고압의 연소가스에 직접 노출되어 열하중이 상당히 클 것으로 판단된다. 해석 결과를 통해 열하중의 영향을 예측하고 향 후 추력기 설계 자료로 이용하고자 한다.

Gas atomization of liquid metal using nozzle technology has more advantages over other methods. Previous study shows that high-velocity gas is important for effective liquid metal atomization. An important first step towards understanding the gas atomization using nozzle is complete evaluation of the flow fields. This will provide a basis for understanding how well high velocity gas is brought to bear on the liquid metal. Present work is a fundamental study of liquid metal atomization for various pressure ratio, different gas and temperature. A two-dimension, axisymmetry compressible Navier-Stokes equations are considered. Two-equation k-epsilon turbulence model is selected.

Nozzle in nuclear power plant is connected to pipe using safe end. Dissimilar metal weld between nozzle and safe end is followed by similar metal weld between safe end and pipe. And thus residual stress in dissimilar metal weld can be affected by similar metal weld. Similar metal weld impose bending stress on dissimilar metal weld, which is according to the length of safe end. In this study, simple nozzle model which covers various radius to thickness ratios was proposed to quantify residual stress in dissimilar metal weld based on finite element analyses. As a result, short length of safe end was proved to be more effective to mitigate residual stress in dissimilar metal weld and critical effective length of safe end is provided according to the radius to thickness ratio.

In order to provide the mechanism of nozzle clogging, recovered nozzles for high strength steel grade were examined carefully after continuous casting. The thickness of clogged material in SEN is increased in the following order: from the bottom to the top of the nozzle, upper part of slag line, and the pouring hole. Nozzle clogging material begins to form due the adhesion of metal to nozzle wall, the decarburization, and reduction of oxide in the refractory by Al and Ti in the melt. The reduction of oxide in the refractory by Al and Ti improves the wettability of the melt on the refractory and forms a thin Al-Ti-O layer. Metal containing micro alumina inclusions is solidified on the Al-Ti-O layer, and the solid layer grows due to the heat evolution through the nozzle wall. Thermodynamic calculation has been made for the related reactions. The effect of superheat to the nozzle clogging is discussed on ultra low carbon steel and low carbon steel.

This work is concerned with the analysis of stress corrosion cracking(SCC) behavior of Alloy 600 nozzle penetration mock-up according to a residual stress induced by a dissimilar metal welding(DMW) in a nuclear reactor pressure vessel. The effects of the dimension and materials of the nozzle penetration on the deformation and the residual stress induced by DMW were investigated using a finite element analysis(FEA). The inner diameter(ID) change of the nozzle by DMW and its dependance on the design variables, calculated by FEA, were well consistent with those measured from the mock-up. Accelerated SCC tests were performed for three mock-ups with different wall thicknesses in a highly acidic solution to investigate mainly the effect of the residual stress on the SCC behavior of Alloy 600 nozzle. From a destructive examination of the mock-up after the tests, the SCC behavior of the nozzle was fairly related with the residual stress induced by DMW : axial cracks were found in the ID surface of the nozzle within the J-weld region where the highest tensile hoop stress was predicted by FEA, while circumferential cracks were observed beyond both J-weld root and toe where the highest tensile axial stress was expected.

Close-coupled atomizers are of great interest and controlling their performance parameters is critical for metal powder producing and spray forming industries. In this study, designed close-coupled nozzle systems were used to investigate the effect of the nozzle types and protrusion length of the melt delivery tube on the pressure formation at the melt delivery tube tip. The observed metal flow rate was not behaving as what was earlier assumed, namely that, deeper aspiration enhanced metal flow rate. Higher aspiration pressure at the tip of the melt delivery tube increases the stability of atomization process.

가압경수로의 많은 관통관 중에서 니켈 기저 합금인 Inconel alloy 600 계열의 이종금속용접부는 일차수응력부식균열에 민감하며, 이를 평가하기 위하여 용접부에 작용하는 잔류응력분포를 정확히 예측하는 것이 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 유한요소해석을 이용하여 노즐 맞대기 이종금속용접부에 작용하는 일반적인 잔류응력분포를 예측하였다. 이를 위해 노즐 맞대기 이종금속용접부의 형상을 단순화하여 특정한 형상 변수에 따른 용접부 잔류응력분포를 확인하였으며, 이를 토대로 기존 문헌에 제시된 오스테나이트계 배관 맞대기 용접부 잔류응력 분포식을 수정하여 가압경수로 노즐 맞대기 이종금속용접부에 작용하는 일반적인 잔류응력분포 예측식을 제시하였다.

A micro-water-nozzle, as one of a cooling means of micro-electronic devices, has been proposed and investigated. The I-V characteristics of the micro-water-nozzle and effect of applied voltage on the meniscus formation and deformation and ejection processes of de-ionized water on the micro-water-nozzle tip have been investigated. The water ejection processes, such as a drop formation, a drop deformation, a dripping, a cone jet, and an atomization, were taken place on the micro-water-nozzle tip by the electrohydrodynamic forces acted by the DC and AC high voltages applied on the meniscus of the micro-water-nozzle tip. The I-V characteristics of the micro-water-nozzle-to-plate electrode system were different from that of the same metal-point electrode system, due to the meniscus formation and water droplet ejection at the nozzle tip. The positive and negative DC and AC high voltages showed the water droplets ejection, the ejection rates of 1.8, 1.5 and 1.2 g/h respectively, which, however, showed that the proposed micro-water-nozzle-to-plate electrode system could be used as one of an effective pumping means.

유가금속이 혼합된 비철합금의 습식 제련의 용이성을 위해서, 주석과 황동 용탕으로부터 표면적이 넓은 평판형 응고체를 제조하는 공정을 제안하였다. 금속 용탕을 그라파이트 도가니의 노즐로부터 드롭렛(droplet) 형상으로 떨어뜨릴 수 있도록 STAR-CCM+ 프로그램을 이용하여 노즐의 직경을 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 mm로 변화시키며 시뮬레이션을 진행하였다. 주석과 황동 모두 0.5 mm 노즐에서는 융액이 흐르지 않았으며, 2.0 mm 에서는 연속적인 분사가 진행되었고, 1.0 mm에서는 목적한 드롭렛이 형성되었다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 바탕으로 목적한 드롭렛이 형성되는 1.0 mm 노즐을 이용하여 용융된 주석, 황동 용탕 드롭렛을 $40^{\circ}$의 경사를 가진 티타늄 충격판에 충돌시켜 표면적이 증가된 디스크형 응고체를 10분 내에 성공적으로 제조하였다. 평면 응고체의 무게, 평균두께, 표면적은 주석의 경우 각각 0.15 g, $107.8{\mu}m$, $3.71cm^2$ 이었으며, 황동의 경우 1.16 g, $129.15{\mu}m$, $23.98cm^2$로 확인되었다. 형성된 응고체의 표면적은 드롭렛에 대비하여 각각 8.2, 17.6배로 증가되었다. 제안된 공정을 이용하여 다른 유가금속 합금의 표면적 향상 공정에도 비용과 시간 절감이 기대되었다.
