The steel impeller placed in a water pump has been studied with the aim to understand corrosion phenomena on the surface responsible for reducing the pumping efficiency of water inside cooling system. This preliminary experiment includes a period (around 1 month) observation with a powered microscope and weight measurements. The experiments are carried out at different conditions of water and mixtures of water and coolants, based on the water contents of 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% water (pure tap water). From the visual results of microscopy, most of the steel surface is fitted and clear rusty or corrosion phenomena are noticeable as time goes. In addition, the weight loss of the sample specimen submerged in the water is linearly increased, whereas those in the mixtures of water initially gain weight and become almost constant.

The steel impeller placed in a water pump has been studied with the aim to understand corrosion phenomena on the surface responsible for reducing the pumping efficiency of water inside cooling system. This preliminary experiment includes a period (over 5 months) observation with a powered microscope and weight measurements.

In activated sludge process, sludge settling condition is affected by organic loading rate or operation condition, and if settling condition is getting worse, it is common that overall process fails due to wash-out of biomass causing low concentration in the aeration tank. Also activated sludge process has such several problems as requiring large area, consuming a lot of power and producing large volume of sludge. Increased public concern over health and the environment combined with a strong desire to reduce capital, operating and maintenance costs, have created a need for innovative technologies for building new high quality effluents which vail meet 21st century crkeria. MBR(Membrane Bioreactor) process consists of a biological reactor and ultrafiltration(UF) membrane system that replaces the conventional clarifier of an activated sludge process. The main operating advantages of this system are that the quality of the effluent is independent of the settleability of the mixed liquor and that the effluent is free of suspended solids in any operating condition. It is possible to eliminate clarifier and to reduce the volume of aeration tank because it can afford to accumulate high biomass concentration in the bioreactor(20, 000~30, 000mg/L), which would not be possible in a conventional activated sludge process. Therefore, this process reduces overall treatment plant area. In addition to those advantages, Longer SRT condition enables higher sludge digestion in MBR process so the sludge volume produced is 50 to 70% lower than that of conventional activated sludge process There are two kinds of MBR process according to the allocations of membrane. One is cross flow type MBR of which module is located outside of the bioreactor and mixed liquor is driven into the membrane module. The other is submerged type MBR process of which module is submerged in the bioreactor and mixed liquor is generally sucked from the lumen side. addition to that the cake layer is often removed by the uplifting flow of bubbling air. A submerged MBR process is superior to a crossflow MBR in regard to the power consumption because suction pressure of a submerged MBR is generally lower than that of a crossflow MBR which has recirculation pump. A submerged MBR, therefore, has the potential to be applied to small wastewater treatment plants that need low cost treatment systems.

The free flexural vibration of a hanged clamped-free cylindrical shell partially submerged in water with gap from bottom is investigated. The fluid is assumed to be inviscid and irrotational. The cylindrical shell is modeled by using the Rayleigh-Ritz method based on the Sanders shell theory. The kinetic energy of the fluid is derived by solving the boundary-value problem related to the fluid motion. The natural vibration characteristics of the partially submerged cylindrical shell are discussed with respect to the added virtual mass approach. In this study, experiments were carried out to confirm theoretical results. It was found that theoretical prediction is in good agreement with experimental results.

This paper presents vibration testing, control, and finite element analysis of a piping system, which is subjected to the changes in fluid levels. Nuclear power plants typically employ a cooling system that uses sea water. These systems are subjected to dynamic characteristic changes caused by sea-level variations, which introduces failures of cooling system components. Therefore in this study, analytical and experimental studies were performed to understand the effect of sea-level changes on the dynamic characteristics of piping systems. It was shown that, as the sea-level increases, pipe's natural frequencies decreases in relation to its mode shape. A 1/14 scale model was also built to compare the results obtained by the analytical study. A good agreement between experiment and analytical studies were observed. Finally, an on-line resonant frequency identification system was proposed and developed, which utilizes piezoelectric transducers as sensors and actuators, in order to avoid catastrophic failure of piping systems.

A pump is considered to be submersible when a motor and a pump are integrated and operate while submerged in water. Submersible pumps mainly function as rejection pumps to prevent foods in densely populated areas, as cold water circulation pumps in large power plants, as pumps to supply irrigation water, as drainage pumps to prevent flooding of agricultural lands, as water supply intake pumps, and as inflow pumps for sewage treatment. The flow in such turbomachines (submersible pumps) inevitably involves various eddy currents. Since it is almost impossible to accurately grasp the complex three-dimensional flow structure and characteristics of a rotating turbomachine through actual testing, three-dimensional numerical analysis using computational fluid dynamics techniques measuring the flow field, velocity, and the pressure can be accurately predicted. In this study, the shape of the impeller was developed to reduce vibration and noise. This was done by increasing the efficiency of the existing submersible pump and reducing turbulence. In order to evaluate the pump's efficiency and turbulence reduction, we tried to analyze the flow using ANSYS Fluent V15.0, a commercial finite element analysis program. The results show that the efficiency of the pump was improved by 4.24% and the Reynolds number was reduced by 15.6%. The performance of a developed pump with reduced turbulence, vibration, and noise was confirmed.

펌프의 성능을 개선하기 위해서는 펌프의 회전수 정보를 획득할 필요성이 있으나, 일반적으로 연료펌프는 연료탱크 안에 내장되어 그 회전수를 측정하기에 어려움이 있다. 연료 펌프의 회전수는 크게 가속도 센서를 이용하는 방법과 전류센서를 이용하는 두 가지 방법이 있다. 가속도 센서를 이용하는 방법은 연료 펌프의 진동수를 측정하여 회전수로 계산하는 방법이며, 전류 센서를 이용하는 방법은 펌프모터의 주기적 전압방출 특성을 이용하여 회전수를 계산하는 방법이다. 본 연구에서는 전류센서를 가속도 센서와 동시에 장착하여 다양한 측정 조건에 대한 실험을 수행하였다. 결론적으로 전류센서로도 연료펌프의 회전수를 정밀하게 측정하는 것이 가능하였으며 특히 낮은 회전수 영역에서는 가속도센서 대비 강건한 계측특성을 보였다. 오차 1% 이내의 회전수를 측정하기위하여, 가속도센서는 데이터 저장간격 0.5Hz 이하의 설정이 필요하였으며, 전류센서는 데이터 저장간격 2.0Hz이하의 설정이 필요하였다.

탱크선과 같은 대형 선박 내부에 설치된 펌프시스템은 펌프장의 수위와 유량 조건에 따라서 펌프 내부유동이 크게 영향을 받게 된다. 그러나, 펌프의 성능은 설계 시 일반적으로 펌프가 작동될 펌프장 환경을 고려하지 않고 펌프 자체의 성능만을 고려하여 설계하기 때문에 펌프로 유입되는 유동에 포함된 보텍스와 선회류의 영향을 받을 경우 펌프장 내에서 공기를 동반한 보텍스 및 선회류가 발생하며, 이러한 유동 환경의 영향으로 펌프의 효율저하, 진동 및 소음문제를 일으킬 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 펌프장의 운전 조건에 따른 내부유동을 검토하기 위하여 펌프장 축소모델을 설계 및 제작하여 수위에 따른 보텍스의 발생 빈도 및 형상을 기초실험을 통하여 확인하였으며, 공기를 동반하여 펌프에 흡입되는 보텍스 Class c의 경우 상대적으로 낮은 수위에서 높은 빈도로 발생하는 것을 확인하였다.

One of the key technologic requirements for rotary blood pumps is the sealing of the motor shaft. A mechanical seal, a journal bearing, magnetic coupling, and magnetic suspension have been developed, but they have drawbacks such as wear, thrombus formation, and power consumption. A magnetic fluid seal is durable, simple, and non power consumptive. Long-term experiments confirmed these advantages. The seal body was composed of a Nd-Fe-B magnet and two pole pieces; the seal was formed by injecting magnetic fluid into the gap (50${\mu}m$) between the pole pieces and the motor shaft. To contain the ferro-fluid in the seal and to minimize the possibility of magnetic fluid making contact with blood, a shield with a small cavity was attached to the pole piece. While submerged in blood, the sealing pressure of the seal was measured and found to be 31kPa with magnetic fluid LS-40 (saturated magnetization, 24.3 KA/m) at a motor speed of 10,000 rpm and 53kPa under static conditions(0mmHg). The specially designed magnetic fluid seal for keeping liquids out is useful for axial flow blood pumps. The magnetic fluid seal was incorporated into an intra-cardiac axial flow blood pump.

Commercial buildings and institutions are predominantly cooled, thereby dissipating excess heat to a vertical ground heat exchanger (VGHE), than heat extracted over an annual cycle. Surface waters, such as lakes and ponds, provide a cost-effective means of reducing the VGHE length, and in balancing the thermal loads to the ground. This paper presents the measurement and analysis of the cooling performance of ground-coupled heat pump (GCHP) system, using surface water heat exchanger (SWHE) submerged in an artificial pond. In order to measure the performance of the system, we installed monitoring equipment, including sensors, for assessing the temperature and power consumption, after which the operation parameters were determined. The results from the thermal performance test for the SWHE indicate that the temperatures at the outlet of the SWHE and within the pond were affected by outdoor air temperature. In addition, the results reveal similar variation trends on temperatures; however, the peak temperatures of the SWHE were somewhat greater than those of outdoor air, due to the thermal capacity of the pond. Analyzing the cooling performance over the measurement period, the average coefficient of performance (COP) of heat pump was found to be 5.71, while that for the entire system was 2.99.
