For controlling micro-flows inside a LOC (lab-on-a-chip) a syringe pump or an electronic device for EOF(electro-osmotic flow) have been used in general. However, these devices are so large and heavy that they are burdensome in the development of a portable micro-TAS (total analysis system). In this study, a new flow control system employing pressure chambers, digital switches and speed controllers was developed. This system could effectively control the micro-scale flows inside a LOC without any mechanical actuators or electronic devices We also checked the feasibility of this new control system by applying it to a LOC of micro-mixer type. Performance tests show that the developed control system has very good performance. Because the flow rate in LOC is controlled easily by throttling the speed controller, the flows in complicate microchannels network can be also controlled precisely.

In this study a general Galerkin FE lubrication analysis method was utilized to analyze the complex lubrication performance of a spiral groove seal having an additional inner circular groove, which was designed for a chemical process mixer operating at a low speed of the maximum 500 rpm. Equilibrium seal clearance analyses under varying outer pressure revealed that the seal maintains a certain levitation seal clearance under the outer pressure of more than about 1.5 bar, regardless of a rotating speed. Also, under the normal outer pressure of 11 bar, the axial stiffness of the seal was predicted to have a high value of more than 7.0 e + 07 N/m, regardless of a rotating speed and thereby, the seal is expected to maintain a stable thickness of lubrication film under a certain external excitation acting. A seal levitation test rig was designed and constructed. Experimental results at 500 rpm agreed well with analytical predictions and the applied lubrication analysis method was verified.

본 논문에서는 단일 영역 정보만을 활용하는 기존의 방법론을 개선하기 위해, 물체의 맥락영역에 대한 정보를 함께 물체 추적에 활용하는 새로운 기법을 제시한다. 기존의 방법론들은 모든 후보 영역들을 독립적으로 처리하는 구조로, 비슷한 외양의 영역들이 등장하는 경우 이를 성공적으로 구분하지 못하는 문제점을 보여주었다. 이는 주어진 장면 내에 등장하는 모든 후보 물체 영역들에 대한 맥락 정보를 고려하지 못하여 생기는 문제이다. 제안하는 방법론에서는 비슷한 외양의 영역들 간의 특징점 정보 교환을 보조하고 이들 간의 구별성을 높이는 것을 목표로 하였다. 이를 구현하기 위해 MLP-믹서 (MLP-Mixer) 모델을 활용하여 맥락영역 간의 정보 교환을 모델링하는 모듈을 제시하였다. 이를 통해 구현된 특징점 채널별, 영역간의 상호작용 연산은 영역의 개별 특징점 표현에 대해 장면 맥락 정보가 내장될 수 있도록 보조한다. 제안한 방법론의 성능을 평가하기 위해 대규모 물체 추적 데이터셋인 LaSOT을 사용하였고, 성능 평가 결과 제안한 알고리즘은 AUC 지표 기준 0.560의 높은 성능과 함께 65fps의 실시간 속도로 동작함을 확인하였다.

In this research, the performance predictions of the submersible mixer were investigated. The variation of the performance characteristics by changing the impeller design parameters were discussed through the flow calculation results by using a commercial program, FLUENT. The performance of the submersible mixers is related to the velocity diffusion profiles downstream of the impeller and also the required input motor power to mix the fluid. In this study, the various design parameters such as the number of blade, the hub and tip diameters, the impeller blade profiles and revolution speed of the blades were taken for the fixed values. The blade sweep direction, the chord length distribution along with the radius of the blade and the inlet blade angle were changed to make different testing models. The flow calculation results show the effect of the changed design parameters on the performance of the submersible mixers and also give some helpful information for designing more efficient submersible mixers.

This paper presents a direct-conversion CMOS transceiver for fully digital DS-UWB systems. The transceiver includes all of the radio building blocks, such as a T/R switch, a low noise amplifier, an I/Q demodulator, a low pass filter, a variable gain amplifier as a receiver, the same receiver blocks as a transmitter including a phase-locked loop (PLL), and a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO). A single-ended-to-differential converter is implemented in the down-conversion mixer and a differential-to-single-ended converter is implemented in the driver amplifier stage. The chip is fabricated on a 9.0 $mm^2$ die using standard 0.18 ${\mu}m$ CMOS technology and a 64-pin MicroLead Frame package. Experimental results show the total current consumption is 143 mA including the PLL and VCO. The chip has a 3.5 dB receiver gain flatness at the 660 MHz bandwidth. These results indicate that the architecture and circuits are adaptable to the implementation of a wideband, low-power, and high-speed wireless personal area network.

The characteristics of starting flow of a six-blade Rushton turbine mixer were investigated by using a cinematic Particle Image Velocimetry technique. The flows were quantified by measurements of velocity fields with a 4 ms time interval for a blade rotational speed of 100 r.p.m, so that the turbine Reynolds number(ND$^2$/ ν) was fixed to 6,960. The radial shedding of the trailing vortices starts from passing four blades after the beginning of rotation. It clearly shows that the vortex pairing phenomena caused by the interactions between trailing cortices firm consequtive blades. The average convection velocity of the radial flow is found to be 28 % of the tip velocity. The starting flow seems to arrive at a steady state after 8 revolutions in this study, which corresponds nearly one circulation through the bulk flow trajectory with the average radial convection velocity.

The extraction of lactic acid by an emulsion liquid membrane (ELM), in batch and continuous mode, has been reported. On the basis of preliminary experiments, the optimum composition of the organic phase (membrane) is determined. When the SPan 80 is used as surfactant, the emulsion breakage exceeds 50%, but only 10% is obtained when the ECA4360 is used. The effects of surfactant, carrier and solute concentrations, phase volume ratio, and stirring speed on the extraction yield were examined and optimized. Surfactant, carrier and diluent used were ECA4360, trilaurylamine (TLA) and dodecane, respectively; 2-ethylhexane-1,3-diol (EHD) is used as a co-surfactant. Under optimal conditions, emulsion breaking is very low and the swelling is kept at its lowest level. Under the pH conditions of fermentation medium, the extraction yield is lower. A mixer-settler continuous system was used for testing these conditions. The residence time, the number of extraction stages and the stability of the emulsion were studied and optimized. The extraction yield obtained exceeds 90%.

This paper presents an experimental investigation of the tribological characteristics of PTFE composites filled with nano CuO particles under low sliding speed and load. All the specimens were prepared by sintering. Before sintering, the mixture of PTFE powder and CuO particles were mixed by a high-speed mixer using CuO volume fractions of 0.2 vol. % and 5 vol. %. Each mixture was sintered at 350 ℃ for 30 min on the steel disk. We conducted ball-on-disk sliding test an hour using a steel ball against PTFE composites, including pure PTFE. The load and sliding speed used was 2 N and 0.01 m/s, respectively. Adding nano CuO particles increases the friction coefficient because of the abrasiveness of hard nano CuO particles. The highest coefficient of frictions was obtained from 5 vol. % CuO. Conversely, the lowest wear of the composites was obtained from the 5 vol. % CuO nanocomposite. This study reveals that the addition of nano CuO particles can lower the wear of PTFE, despite an increase in the coefficient of friction. However, the coefficient friction is still moderate compared to other engineering polymers. In addition, the amount of CuO nano particles has to be optimized to reduce friction and wear at the same time.

Mixers are used in various industrial fields where it is necessary to intimately mix two reactants in a short period of time. However, despite their widespread use, complex unsteady flow characteristics of industrial mixers are not systematic investigated. The present study aimed to clarify unsteady flow characteristics induced by various impellers in a tank. Impellers are pitched blade turbine and neo-hydrofoil turbine types. A high speed CCD camera and an Ar-Ion laser for illumination were adopted to clarify the time-dependent flow characteristics of the mixers. The rotating speed of impellers increased from 6Hz to 60Hz by 6Hz. The maximum velocity around PBT impeller is higher than the hydrofoil type impeller. These two types of turbine shows that typical flow characteristics of axial turbine and suitable for mixing high -viscosity materials.
