The motive gas of a supersonic ejector is supplied from different sources depending on the application. The performance of an ejector that is represented by the secondary flow pressure, starting and unstarting pressures heavily depends on the molecular properties of the motive gas. The effects of specific heat ratio of the motive gas were investigated experimentally for an axi-symmetric annular injection type supersonic ejector. Both the starting pressure and unstarting pressure, however, decreased with the increase of the specific heat ratio of the motive gas. It was discovered that the secondary flow pressure increased as the specific heat ratio of the motive gas decreased even if the stagnation pressure of the motive flow was invariant. However, when the motive gas flow nozzle area ratio is large enough for the motive gas to be condensed, different tendency was observed.

The gas jet pumps serve to preduce a vacuum or can be used as gas jet compressors. These are operated on the same principle as a steam jet vacuum pump : in the driving nozzle the pressure energy of the motive medium is converted into the kinetic energy. In the diffuser the driving jet mixes with the suction medium and the kinetic energy is reconverted into the pressure enegy. The application fields of gas jet ejectors are the evacuation of siphoning installations, the elevation of liquids, the production of vacuum filters, the vacuum supporting airlift system, the evacuation of the suction line of centrifugal pumps and the ventilation of the dangerous gases to the atmosphere. The performance of gas jet ejector is influenced strongly to velocity coefficient of motive nozzle, the distance between the motive outlet to the diffuser inlet and the dimensions of diffuser. This study is performed for the computer aided design of gas jet ejectors in future. Through the present experiments, it is known that the velocity coefficient of the motive air nozzle ranges from 0.91 to 0.95 and the maximum efficiency of gas jet ejector is 24.6%.

High-speed ejection of burnt gases from the resonator cavity is essential for performance optimization of the chemical laser system. Additionally, to maintain the population of lasing species at a level for maximum optical power, the pressure within the cavity must be of order of 10 torr. In the present study, a small-scale ejector was designed and built for parametric study of its performance. High-pressure air was used as a motive gas. Measurements include schlieren visualization and pressure distribution trace near the ejector nozzle and along the diffuser downstream of the ejector. preliminary tests showed performance of the ejector is a function of parameters including mass flow rate and stagnation pressure of the motive gas, ejector nozzle area ratio, throat area of the diffuser downstream of the ejector.

Korea Gas Corporation(KOGAS) have constructed a gas flowmeters' calibration facilities at Jungdong Bucheon. The facilities consisting of 6 reference turbine meters can perform calibrations of large capacity natural gas flowmeters up to $9,600 m^3/h$ at 95 kPa. This large capacity and high pressure natural gas facilities is traceable to the national standard of gas flow rate (KRISS). In this article the motive of construction and description of design are summarized.

The development of separation technology is an important research subject as is clear from its role in the Japanese government's research and development program for basic technology for the next generation(1981~1990). Japan is poor not only in mineral resources but also in energy resources and if a sudden change occurs in oil producing facility or an accident occurs in a nuclear power plant, then energy policy must undergo changes and economic foundations may collapse. Japan has already experienced this. Although, oil prices are stable at present and Japan can import oil at low cost due to the yen appreciation, Japan needs to promote development work for any new energy crisis that may come in the future. This has been the motive for gas separation membrane development in Japan. The study of gas permeation through polymer membranes, which is the basis for membranes for gas separation, at Japanese universities began many years ago, but interest in membranes for gas separation was aroused mainly by the Government. The development of gas separation membranes in Japan started with membranes for oxygen separation on an industrial scale.

Steam ejector is a equipment which compresses the gases to desired discharge pressure. It is widely used for the evacuation systems because of its high working confidence. And recently it is used as the thermo-compressors in the various energy saving systems. Steam ejector is constructed of three basic parts; a suction chamber, a motive nozzle and a diffuser. The high velocity stream jet of steam emitted by the motive nozzle creats suction chamber, which draws the low pressure gases. The diffuser converts the kinetic energy of high velocity flow to pressure energy. It is not easy to determine the dimensions of a steam ejector met to the desired design condition, because that the expected suction rates must be obtained by reapeating the complicate calculation. And also such a calculation is concomitant with geometrical analysis for suction part and diffuser based on the stability of steam flow. Therefore, it is considered that the Computer-Aided Design (CAD) of steam ejector is a powerful design method. In this paper, computer program for steam ejector design is developed based on the theoretical research and the previous experimental results. And the determinating method of diffuser inlet angle and the velocity development profile of suction gas along to the diffuser are suggested. The validity of the development profile of suction gas along to the diffuser are suggested. The validity of the developed computer results with other's for the practical design calculation of a manufactured steam ejector.

In this study, the ejector design was modeled using Fluent 6.3 of FVM(Finite Volume Method) CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) techniques to resolve the flow dynamics in the ejector. A vacuum system with the ejector has been widely used because of its simple construction and easy maintenance. Ejector is the main part of the desalination system, of which designs determine the efficiency of system. The effects of the ejector was investigated geometry and the operating conditions in the hydraulic characteristics. The ejector consists mainly of a nozzle, suction chamber, mixing tube(throat), diffuser and draft tube. Liquid is supplied to the ejector nozzle, the fast liquid jet produced by the nozzle entrains and the non condensable gas was sucked into the mixing tube. In the present study, the multiphase CFD modeling was carried out to determine the hydrodynamic characteristics of seawater-air ejector. Two-dimensional geometry was considered with the quadrilateral-mashing scheme. The gas suction rate increases with increasing Motive flow circulating rate.

This paper described on the motion of hybrid tractor trajectory for powertrain system. The dynamics behavior used to the tractor according to the characteristics of the road surface using $Daful^@$ analysis. The tractor industry is facing to a big problem about rising gas price and exhaust gas environment. Because it was possible overcoming the past drawback, hybrid vehicle had been decided as the best technical way since it has started operating the internal combustion engine with the electric power as the motive power. The vehicle structures have designed the model of a major power transmission factor. The simulation realized in this paper that motion of tractor being turned by torque and force of each joints. Driving characteristics, especially in recent years, IVHS (Intelligent Vehicle Tractor / System) technology, while receiving a lot of attention because of the tractor and the need to pursue high function is emerging as a more and more.

Because of the continuous growth of energy consumption and also the tendency to site power lines and pipelines along the same route, the close proximity of power lines and buried metallic pipelines has become more and more frequent. Therefore there has been and still is a slowing concern about possible hazards resulting from the influence of power lines on metallic pipelines. Underground pipelines that run parallel to or in close proximity to power lines are subjected to induced voltages caused by the time-varying magnetic fields produced by the power line currents. The induced electro- motive force cause currents circulation in the pipeline and voltages between the pipeline and surrounding earth. This paper analyzes the induced voltage on the gas pipelines buried in parallel with 22.9kV distribution lines. Their magnitude depends on the length of parallelism and on the distance between distribution lines and pipeline.
