  • Fuel cell systems are being supplied to households and buildings to reduce greenhouse gases. The fuel cell systems have problems of high cost and slow startup due to fuel processors. Greenhouse gas reduction of the fuel cell systems is also limited by using natural gas. The problems can be solved by using a hydrogen generator consisting of a reformer and pressure swing adsorption (PSA). However, part load operation of the hydrogen generator is required depending on the hydrogen consumption. In this paper, PSA operation strategies are investigated for part load of the hydrogen generator. Adsorption and purge time were changed in the range of part load ratio between from 0.5 to 1.0. As adsorption time increased, hydrogen recovery increased from 29.09% to 48.34% at 0.5 of part load ratio. Hydrogen recovery and hydrogen purity were also improved by increasing adsorption and purge time. However, hydrogen recovery dramatically decreased to 35.01% at 0.5 of part load ratio.

  • Performance improvements of the heat recovery steam generator(HRSG) can be achieved by improving the flow distribution of exhaust gases for a various type of different equipments. A number of design parameters are systematically investigated and their effects on an index of velocity deviation established. The parameters include the three shape of the transition duct and the wide range of the guide vane angles. The numerical results clearly reveal feature of the flow pattern in the transition duct, velocity deviation and pressure drop at tube bank part.

  • A three dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes code is developed to analyze flowfields and performance of a vaned diffuser in a centrifugal compressor. It employs scalar implicit approximate factorization, finite volume formulation, second order upwind differencing and a two-equation $q-{\omega}$ turbulence model based on the integration to the wall. Pressure recovery and loss coefficients of a vaned diffuser are evaluated using a developed computer code. The simulated three dimensional flows show how through flow structure affects pressure recovery performance and loss coefficients of a vane for design and off-design inlet flow angles. Development of complex three dimensional flow over the inlet region and leading edge are very influential to the overall flow and performance.

  • For the development of Scramjet engine technology, intake designing processes are investigated. The basic geometry is determined by the inviuld relation such as shock wave relations and geometric relations. Furthermore, bleed duct is installed for preventing boundary layer development and shock wave impingement. Performance of the designed intake is validated by numerical analysis. As a result, double- wedge intake showed better characteristics in total pressure recovery than single-wedge intake.

  • 1. The flux for hydrophilic CA membrane is higher than that for hydrophobic PES membrane at any operating conditions. The difference in bpth fluxes becomes greater as the water recovery is lower. 2. Backwash pressure should be more than twice as high as filtration pressure in order to maintain the higher flux. Backwash frequency is independent of the flux when the UF is operated under the same water recovery. 3. The relatively lower crossflow velocity of around 0.1 m/s would be appropriate because of the lower energy consumption per treated water. 4. The membrane fouling occurring at high turbidity and high concentration of organic compounds in raw water can reduce the flux and increase the removal of the organic compounds. 5. It is confirmed by the pilot plant testing that the UF by using the CA membrane module was well applicable to the drinking water treatment.

  • ORVR filler neck check valve, which is one of the essential components of the vapor fuel control system, should diminish the evaporation by maintaining laminar fluid flow on refueling process. This study presents numerical. results of pressure and velocity distributions of the fluid flow in a ORVR filler neck check valve on refueling process. CFD-ACE+ has been employed for numerical analysis based on the information of experimental results of valve position as a function of inlet flow rate. No abrupt pressure change, which may causes vaporization of fuel, has been confirmed to take place on the concave surface of the valve spool. However, it is clear that some possibility exist at the mid-position of surface of valve spool and downstream according to the opening of valve.

  • In this study, two types of ramjet intake were designed for the flight condition of Mach number 2 and 5 and numerical analysis was performed. In order to widen the flight envelope range(Mach number $2{\sim}6$), movable intake concept was applied. The central body was designed so that the capture area ratio which is one of most important factors of ramjet intake design could be adjusted. And various types of cowl and movable insert part of shell were designed in order to control throat area which could increase total pressure recovery. The numerical results showed that the designed ramjet intake could be applied in various flights Mach number.

  • A precedure for recovering surface displacement from a time series of pressure measured by a pressure gage in a shallow water (that is, FFTM, LCM. IWM) is investigated with respect to a proper cut-off-frequency of a frequency response function for the accurate recovery of wave height and period. The authors examined the applicability of above mentioned three transformation procedures through field observations and laboratory experiments and the following results are obtained. i) The cut-off-frequency of the frequency response function used in FFTM is deeply depend on both the frequency response of the pressure sensor and the water depth at the sensor. In this study, a relatively accurate surface displacement can be recovered when the frequency response function is cut off at the frequency corresponding to kh=3.0 where k is a wave number at the depth of h. The frequency response function in the region higher than the cut-off-frequency is set constant to be the value at the cut-off-frequency. ii) The transformed surface displacements by LCM are affected by the small waves of short periods included in the measured pressure. It is found that pressure variation whose local frequency is higher than kh=1.5 has to be neglected to recover surface displacement sufficiently. iii) In IWM, the linear pressure response function is usually utilized by multiplying a coefficient N which is a function of the frequency (or kh) and takes a value around unity. However, in this study, a constant value of N(=1.0) gives a relatively accurate recovery of surface displacements.

  • Haloperidol, a butyrophenone, was synthetized by Janssen and introduced for the treatment of psychosis. Although structurally different from the phenothiazines, the butyrophenones share many of their pharmacological properties, such as inhibition of conditioned avoidance response, blocking effect of amphetamine reaction, producing catalepsy, antishock effect and protection against the lethal effects of catecholalmines. Chlorpromazine can lower the arterial blood pressure through its adrenergic blocking activity, its direct effect in relaxing vascular smooth muscle, its direct effect in depressing the myocardium and its action in a complex manner on the central nervous system. In the case of haloperidol, however, was not clarified the mechanism of lowering the blood pressure. The present paper describes the effects of haloperidol on cardiovascular system to investigate the mechanisms of its actions on the arterial blood pressure. The results are followings; 1. In anesthetized cats, intravenous administration of haloperidol and chlorpromazine in the dose of 0.1mg/kg produced a slight decrease in the blood pressure, which followed by complete recovery within $30{\sim}60$ minutes. In the dose of 3mg/kg, however, both produced an abrupt and marked decrease of the blood pressure, which followed by delayed recovery. 2. Haloperidol in the dose ranges of 0.1mg to 3.0mg/kg tended to produce the heart rate slowing in the cats, while chlorpromazine has no effect on the rate. 3. Following administration of haloperidol or chlorpromazine, epinephrine reversal in the arterial blood pressure was observed in the cat, however the responses of norepinephrine and acetylcholine were little affected. 4. In the isolated rabbit atrium the contractility was depressed by haloperidol in the doses over 0.5mg per 100ml, but the rate was not affected. In contrast, the epinephrine-induced contractility was not depressed after haloperidol treatment. However, the increased rate of atrium by epinephrine was partially blocked after haloperidol. 5. In the isolated rabbit aortic strip, epinephrine-induced contraction was blocked by haloperidol. With the above results, it may be concluded that the hypotensive effect of haloperidol was largely due to ${\alpha}$-adrenergic blocking properties and the direct effect in depressing the myocardium as well as its action on central nervous system.
