Recent advanced IT made layout design fast and accurate by using algorithms. Layout design should be determined by considering the position of equipment with satisfying various space constraints and its component works with optimum performance. Especially, engine room layout design is performed with mother ship data, theoretical optimal solution, design requirements and several design constraints in initial design stage. Piping design is affected by position of equipment seriously. Piping design depends on experience of designer. And also piping designer should consider correlation of equipment and efficiency of space. In this study, space evaluation method has been used to evaluate efficiency of space. And also this study suggested object function for optimal piping route, Average Reservation Index(ARI), Estimated Piping Productivity(EPP) and with modified space evaluation method. In this study, optimum pipe routing system has been developed to reflect automated piping route with space efficiency and experience of piping designer. Engine room is applied to the design of the piping in order to confirm validity of the developed system.

The purpose of this study is to reduce seismic responses of an actual nuclear piping system using a tuned mass damper (TMD) device. A numerical piping model was developed and validated based on shaking table test results with actual nuclear piping. A TMD for nuclear piping was newly devised in this work. A TMD shape design suitable for nuclear piping systems was conducted, and its operating performance was verified after manufacturing. The response reduction performance of the developed TMD under earthquake loading on actual piping was investigated. Results confirmed that, on average, seismic response reduction rates of 34% in the maximum acceleration response, 41% in the root mean square acceleration response, and 57% in the spectral acceleration response were shown through the TMD application. This developed TMD operated successfully within the seismic response reduction rate of existing TMD optimum design values. Therefore, the developed TMD and dynamic interpretation help improve the nuclear piping's seismic performance.

In analysis of piping vibration of petrochemical plant, the forcing functions mainly depend upon the equipment working mechanism and vibration resources in the piping systems. In general, harmonic function is used for the system with rotary equipments. Mechanical driving frequencies, wave functions, and response spectrum are used for reciprocating compressors, surge vibration of long transfer piping, and seismic/wind vibration, respectively. In this study, for the spray injection case inside the pipe, forcing function was modeled, in which two different fluids are distributed uniformly. To confirm the results, the scheme used for the forcing function was applied for real piping system. The vibration mode of the real system was consistent with the 4th mode obtained by simulation using the forcing function formulated in this study.

For the simulation of piping vibrations in petrochemical plants, forcing functions mainly depend upon the equipment working mechanism and vibration resources in the piping systems. In general, harmonic function is used to simulate rotary equipment. Mechanical driving frequencies, wave functions, and response spectrum are used to simulate reciprocating compressors, surge vibration of long transfer piping, and seismic/wind vibration, respectively. In this study, the general suggestions for forcing functions were reviewed and proposed the forcing function to simulate the spray injection system inside the pipe in which two different fluids are distributed uniformly. To confirm the results, the scheme was applied for a real piping system. The vibration mode of the real system was consistent with the 4th mode (26.725 Hz) obtained by simulation using the forcing function presented in this study.

For the vibration analysis of 3-dimensional piping system containing fluid flow, a transfer matrix method is presented. The fluid velocity and pressure were considered, that coupled to longitudinal and flexural vibrations. Transfer matrices and point matrices were derived from direct solutions of the differential equations of motion of pipe conveying fluids, and the variations of natural frequency with flow velocity for 3-dimensional piping system were investigated.

In this paper, Firstly, it is shown that the high vibration and noise source of piping and pump system is the acoustic resonance. Secondly, in order to decrease the high vibration and noise of piping and pump system, the acoustic mode of piping have been changed and its effectiveness is investigated as applied it at piping system practically.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze piping failure trend of safety pipings In domestic nuclear power plants. First, database for the piping failure was constructed with 105 data fields. The database includes plant population data, event data, and service history data. 7 kinds of piping failures in domestic NPPs were investigated. Among the 7 cases, detailed root causes were investigated for 3 cases. The first one is pipe wall thinning in main feedwater pipings of Westinghouse 3 loop type plants. The root cause of the wall thinning was flow accelerated corrosion near welding area. The next one is leak event in chemical and volume control system(CVCS) due to vibration. Some cracks occurred in socket welding area. The events showed that the integrity or socket weld is very vulnerable to vibration. The last one is also a leak event in primary sampling line in Korean standard reactor due to thermal fatigue. Although the structural integrity was not maintained by the events, there was no effect on nuclear safety in the above 3 piping failure eases.

This paper describes an evaluation method of pressure drop in a circular pipe of waste collection piping system. Accurate pressure drop in a piping system is very important to determine the capacity of turbo blower, which is one of the main elements in the system. Three-dimensional Navier-Stokes analysis is introduced to analyze the pressure drop in the piping system. Organic waste is selected and modeled using the result of site survey performed in an apartment area. Evaluation method of pressure drop used In the present numerical simulation is performed in the shortened pipe line prior to the calculation of the real system. Throughout the numerical simulation, pressure drop in a waste pipe is obtained and compared to the value determined by analytical method. The pressure drop obtained by numerical simulation has a good agreement with that of the analytic method. It is noted that present evaluation method is effective to determine a pressure drop in the piping system. Detailed flow characteristics inside the pipe line are also analyzed and discussed.

It is very important that piping system shall meet the optimum design requirement as predicted in designing system. If the piping system proved not to meet the requirement in commission it shall be redesigned and corrected till the required capacity is satisfied. which costs much expense. The objective of this study is to understand steady 3-dimensional flow phenomena in a process piping system numerically. 3-dimensional numerical simulations with standard $k-{\epsilon}$ model were carried out by using ALGOR code for three cases of Reynolds number. 2500, 3500 and 4500, based on inlet pipe diameter and three cases of inflow air temperature, $20^{\circ}C,\;50^{\circ}C$ and $100^{\circ}C$.
