Vessel sealing is a medical device that converts electrical or ultrasonic energy into thermal energy and leads to seal, coagulate, and cut the vessel by protein modification within the walls or surrounding connective tissues. As most of surgeries have recently been conducted with minimally invasive surgery, the demand and market for vessel sealing are expected to get bigger. However, there is a problem that electrosurgical or ultrasonic surgical is applied and we have a high risk to evaluate the strength of seal, because the collateral and particular standards currently in force follows have not been establish. Therefore, in this study, we investigated some papers studied on the efficacy and safety of the device, the guidance of FDA and test papers previously conducted from 3 individual subject device made in Korea. We found there is a relationship between burst pressure and the performance of the device, therefore, we propose the vascular bursting pressure test for evaluating the safety and performance of the vessel sealing.

본 연구에서는 압축천연가스 자동차용으로 사용하는 CNG 충전니플의 밀봉성과 밀봉내구 안전성에 관련된 접촉법선응력 및 등가진응력을 유한요소법으로 해석하였다. 기존의 원형 오링과 새로운 더블립 오링에 초기압축률 15%를 가한 상태에서 밀봉력을 해석한 결과에 의하면, 두 곳에서 밀봉작용을 하는 더블립 오링이 한곳에서 밀봉작용을 하는 기존의 원형 오링보다 41% 더 높게 나타남을 알 수 있다. 오링에 초기압축력 15%와 가스압축압력 8MPa을 작용한 상태에서 가스누출 차단 안전성을 비교하면, 기존의 원형 오링보다는 더블립 오링에서 5% 향상된 해석결과를 제시하고 있다. 또한, 오링의 밀봉내구 안전성을 비교한 FEM 해석결과에 의하면, 원형 오링보다는 더블립 오링에서 발생된 최대등가진응력이 10.2%나 더 높게 발생한 것으로 나타났다. 이것은 더블립 오링이 기존의 원형 오링보다는 장수명을 보장할 수 있다는 것이다.

PURPOSES: The purpose of this study was to investigate the disintegration mechanism of concrete due to the infiltration of the moisture to the milling overlay pavement and to come up with a method to minimize the disintegration as well as verifying the effectiveness of the edge sealing and Fogseal method. METHODS : This study investigated the distress mechanism due to the infiltrated moisture remaining in the milling overlay pavement through chloride freezing test and verified the effectiveness of the sealing of the milling edge and fog seal methods, which have been devised to minimize the moisture infiltration, through laboratory water permeability test. Additionally, long-term pavement performance was compared for the effectiveness of the proposed method through under loading test, and field water permeability test was carried out to verify the field applicability of the proposed method. RESULTS: The result of the research confirmed that chloride deteriorates the concrete surface through disintegration and lowers its strength and that the laboratory moisture infiltration test verified the effectiveness of the milling edge sealing and fog seal methods in the deterrence of moisture infiltration to the overlay pavement with excellent long-term performance of the pavement treated with the proposed method. Although the field water permeability test revealed some deterrence of moisture infiltration of the milling edge sealing and fog seal methods to a certain extent, the difference was a little. CONCLUSIONS: The milling edge sealing and fog seal methods are limited in their effectiveness for the cases of improvident compaction management or mixture with large void, and it is believed that installation of subsurface drainage is more effective in these cases.

This paper describes performance of sealing integrity and bending strain of HV polymeric bushing with thermal mechanical test. Generally the properties of FRP tube can be influenced by the winding angle, wall thickness and winding tension. As a results, multi winding bushing shows that it has max deflection in the range of 16.5~16.9 mm.

Fuel Test Loop(FTL) is a facility which could conduct a fuel irradiation test at HANARO(High-flux Advanced Neutron Application Reactor). FTL simulates commercial NPP's operating conditions such as the pressure, temperature and neutron flux levels to conduct the irradiation and thermo-hydraulic tests. The In-Pile Test Section(IPS) installed in HANARO FTL is designed as a pressure vessel design conditions of $350^{\circ}C$, 17.5MPa. The instrumentation MI-cables for thermocouples, SPND and LVDT are passed through the sealing plug, which is in the pressure boundary region and is a part of instrumentation feedthrough of MI-cable. In this study, the brazing method and performance test results are introduced to the sealing plug with BNi-2 filler metal, which is selected with consideration of the compatibility for the coolant. The performance was verified through the insulation resistance test, hydrostatic test, and helium leak test.

This paper presents the experimental results of the friction characteristics of double liptype oil seals which show an improvement in sealing performance over single lip-type oil seals. The major differences between two oil seals are the number of contact lip, and seal materials; Nitrile Butadine Rubber(NBR) and urethane rubber. The measured results show that the friction torques of double lip seals show 12-17% increases compared with those of single lip-type seals. But the sealing performance and service life of double lip oil seals have been increased and stabilized due to an optimized design of the seal lip and material properties.

The O-ring seal is a usual component part in various mechanical apparatuses for sealing that makes efficient performance of the equipments. The sealing performance of 0-ring is effected in environments of the O-ring seal, like that applied pressures, working temperatures, interferences and materials. In this paper, an pressurized, NBR O-ring is calculated by experimental methods and analysed numerically using the MARC finite element program. The calculated experimental and FEM results showed that the Contact force O-ring decreases as a function of temperature.

The buffer and backfill are important components of the engineered barrier system in a high-level waste repository, which should be constructed in a hard rock formation at a depth of several hundred meters below the ground surface. The primary function of the buffer and backfill is to seal the underground excavation as a preferred flow path for radionuclide migration from the deposited high-level waste. This study investigates the hydraulic conductivity and swelling pressure of Kyungju Ca-bentonite, which is the candidate material for the buffer and backfill in the Korean reference high-level waste disposal system. The factors that influence the hydraulic conductivity and swelling pressure of the buffer and backfill are analyzed. The factors considered are the dry density, the temperature, the sand content, the salinity and the organic carbon content. The possibility of deterioration in the sealing performance of the buffer and backfill is also assessed.

본 논문에서는 압력용기의 밀봉성과 밀접한 관계를 맺고 있는 O-링 그루브 형상의 온도분포와 변형거동 특성에 대한 연구를 수행하고자 한다. 압력용기에 작용하는 온도는 히터에 의해 가열되고, 압력은 가스 압축기에 의해 가압된다. 결국, 압력용기는 제한된 작업기간동 안 높은 압력과 높은 온도를 유지해야 한다 이러한 작동조건에서 압력용기의 가스는 구형 그루브에 설치된 두 개의 O-링에 의해 대기중으로 누출되지 말아야 한다. 유한요소해석 결과에 의하면, 압력용기의 밀봉성을 확보하기 위해서는 메탈 시일 소재의 열적, 기계적 특성이 대단히 우수해야 한다는 사실을 지적하고 있다 즉, 메탈 시일 소재는 높은 열전도 계수와 낮은 기계적 강도를 유지해야 밀봉성을 유지하는데 유리하다. 이러한 소재는 O-링을 설치하는 구형 그루브의 밀봉간극이나 그루브의 폭을 줄여줄 수 있기 때문에 압력용기의 밀봉특성을 향상시키게 된다.
