This paper presents the experimental study on the design conditions of pressure between booster ejector and air ejector in the steam-jet water-vapour refrigeration system. In this experiment, the motive steam of booster ejector and ai. ejector was dry saturated from 6 ata to 8 ata and flash chamber pressure were about $10\∼540mmHg$ higher than mixing section in booster ejector. The investigation of air on the pressure of booster ejector was performed by changing the condenser pressure. The experimental results show that flash chamber vacuum and condenser pressure of steam-jet refrigeration cycle increased in accordance with the increase of motive steam Pressure. Among the several nozzle sires tested, No.4 nozzle were best in term of evaporator vacuum under the constant operating conditions of air ejector in condenser.

Steam jet condensation is of great importance to pressure suppression containment and automatic depressurization system in nuclear power plant. In this paper, the condensation processes of sonic steam jet in a quiescent subcooled pool are recorded and analyzed, more precise understanding are got in direct contact condensation. Experiments are conducted at atmospheric pressure, and the steam is injected into the subcooled water pool through a vertical nozzle with the inner diameter of 10 mm, water temperature in the range of $25-60^{\circ}C$ and mass velocity in the range of $320-1080kg/m^2s$. Richardson number is calculated based on the conservation of momentum for single water jet and its values are in the range of 0.16-2.67. There is no thermal stratification observed in the water pool. Four condensation regimes are observed, including condensation oscillation, contraction, expansion-contraction and double expansion-contraction shapes. A condensation regime map is present based on steam mass velocity and water temperature. The dimensionless steam plume length increase with the increase of steam mass velocity and water temperature, and its values are in the range of 1.4-9.0. Condensation heat transfer coefficient decreases with the increase of steam mass velocity and water temperature, and its values are in the range of $1.44-3.65MW/m^2^{\circ}C$. New more accurate semi-empirical correlations for prediction of the dimensionless steam plume length and condensation heat transfer coefficient are proposed respectively. The discrepancy of predicted plume length is within ${\pm}10%$ for present experimental results and ${\pm}25%$ for previous researchers. The discrepancy of predicted condensation heat transfer coefficient is with ${\pm}12%$.

This study shows a water cooling system by using a steam ejector and jet condenser to drop the temperature of the water by about $5^{\circ}C\;from\;25^{\circ}C$ or higher. In this research, to replace the present water cooling system, we focused on a water cooling system by latent heat of evaporation, thus this system needs a vacuum pressure to evaporate the water in enclosed tank. The water cooling effects are depended on the vacuum pressure in the enclosed tank, and the cooling water is generated by latent head of evaporation. As the experimental results, the absolute vacuum pressure obtained was about $5{\sim}8$ mmHg using a steam driven ejector with jet condenser.

물과 증기의 직접접촉에 의한 응축 열전달은 움직이는 증기/물 경계면에서 열 및 물질 전달이 이루어지는 현상으로서, 매우 큰 열전달계수를 수반하는 특징이 있기 때문에 이를 응용한 설계가 산업계에서 광범위하게 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 단일 수평 배관을 통해 과냉각수가 있는 응축탱크로 안정된 증기제트가 방출될 때, 증기제트 형상을 예측하는 간단한 응축해석모델을 제시하였다. 해석모델은 축대칭 좌표계에서 질량, 운동량 및 에너지 방정식과 증기/물 경계면에서 의 응축 특성을 고려한 열평형 방정식을 사용하여 유도하였다. 증기/물 경계에서의 매우 큰 열전달율은 기존의 실험을 근거로 한 유효열전도계수에 의해 반영되었다. 해석결과는 실험결과와 비교하였고, 제시된 해석 모델은 실험에서 관찰된 바와 같이 증기 질량유속과 수조 온도가 증가할수록 증기제트 크기(반경 및 길이)가 증가하는 경향을 보였다.

Steam jets ejected from a rupture zone of high energy pipes may cause damage to adjacent structures. This event could lead to more serious accidents in nuclear power plants. Therefore, to prevent serious accidents, high energy pipes of nuclear power plants are designed according to the ANSI / ANS 58.2 technical standard. However, the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) has recently pointed out non-conservatism in existing high energy pipe fracture evaluation methods, and required the assessment of the unsteady load of the jet caused by a potential feedback mechanism as well as the impact range of steam jet, the jet impact loads and the blast wave effects at the initial breakage stage. The potential feedback mechanism refers to a phenomenon in which a vortex formed by impingement jets amplifies vortex itself and induces jet vibration in a shear layer. In this study, CFD methodology using the LES turbulence model is established and numerical analysis is carried out to evaluate the dynamic behavior of impingement jets and the potential feedback mechanism during jet impingement. Obtained results have been compared with an empirical correlation and experiment.

For the purpose of a cost effective design of practical subsonic/supersonic ejector systems, an experiment was carried out using a superheated steam as a primary driving flow. The superheated steam jet was produced by several different kinds of subsonic and supersonic nozzles. The secondary flow of atmospheric air inside a plenum chamber was drawn into the primary steam jet. The vacuum performance of the plenum chamber was investigated for a wide range of the ejector operation pressure ratio. The result showed that the static pressure of the mixed flow at the ejector throat is only a function of the ejector operation pressure ratio, regardless of the primary nezzle type employed.

A steam explosion may occur during a severe accident, when the molten core comes into contact with water. The pressurized water reactor and boiling water reactor ex-vessel steam explosion study, which was carried out with the multicomponent three-dimensional Eulerian fuel-coolant interaction code under the conditions of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Steam Explosion Resolution for Nuclear Applications project reactor exercise, is presented and discussed. In reactor calculations, the largest uncertainties in the prediction of the steam explosion strength are expected to be caused by the large uncertainties related to the jet breakup. To obtain some insight into these uncertainties, premixing simulations were performed with both available jet breakup models, i.e., the global and the local models. The simulations revealed that weaker explosions are predicted by the local model, compared to the global model, due to the predicted smaller melt droplet size, resulting in increased melt solidification and increased void buildup, both reducing the explosion strength. Despite the lower active melt mass predicted for the pressurized water reactor case, pressure loads at the cavity walls are typically higher than that for the boiling water reactor case. This is because of the significantly larger boiling water reactor cavity, where the explosion pressure wave originating from the premixture in the center of the cavity has already been significantly weakened on reaching the distant cavity wall.

본 연구에서 고에너지 금속 알루미늄의 효과적인 점화를 위해 개발한 직류 방식의 스팀 플라즈마 점화기 가스온도를 OH radical의 방출 스펙트럼을 사용하여 측정하였다. 플라즈마 제트온도는 초고온이므로 비접촉식 광학 계측 방법인 볼츠만 기울기법과 스펙트럼 비교 분석법을 이용하여 측정하였으며 각각의 방법은 정밀하게 검증 후 실험에 적용되었다. 플라즈마 점화기의 노즐 팁으로부터 30 mm 범위에서의 제트온도 측정결과 두 방법 모두 알루미늄의 점화온도(${\approx}2400K$) 이상의 2900 K ~ 5800 K를 확인할 수 있었다.

로켓 등급의 고농도 과산화수소는 촉매 분해를 통해 높은 온도의 산소와 수증기를 발생하며, 이와 같은 성질을 이용하여 우주 추진 기술로 사용된 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 과산화수소의 촉매 분해를 이용한 수중 추진 시스템 관련 문헌 조사 및 개념 설계를 진행했다. 과산화수소 분해 가스를 분사하는 분사기 설계의 경우 로켓 노즐 설계 방식과 유사하게 진행했으며, 두 종류의 형태로 엔진 설계를 진행했다. 환형의 형태의 가스 분사기를 갖는 엔진을 제작하여 수중 환경에서 작동 시험을 수행했으며, 엔진 노즐 출구의 면적에 따른 성능 변화를 관찰했다. 향후 중앙에서 가스를 분사하는 방식의 엔진을 제작하여 성능 평가를 수행할 예정이다.
