  • A venturi scrubber is an important element of Filtered Containment Venting System (FCVS) for the removal of aerosols in contaminated air. The present work involves computational fluid dynamics (CFD) study of dust particle removal efficiency of a venturi scrubber operating in self-priming mode using ANSYS CFX. Titanium oxide ($TiO_2$) particles having sizes of 1 micron have been taken as dust particles. CFD methodology to simulate the venturi scrubber has been first developed. The cascade atomization and breakup (CAB) model has been used to predict deformation of water droplets, whereas the Eulerian-Lagrangian approach has been used to handle multiphase flow involving air, dust, and water. The developed methodology has been applied to simulate venturi scrubber geometry taken from the literature. Dust particle removal efficiency has been calculated for forced feed operation of venturi scrubber and found to be in good agreement with the results available in the literature. In the second part, venturi scrubber along with a tank has been modeled in CFX, and transient simulations have been performed to study self-priming phenomenon. Self-priming has been observed by plotting the velocity vector fields of water. Suction of water in the venturi scrubber occurred due to the difference between static pressure in the venturi scrubber and the hydrostatic pressure of water inside the tank. Dust particle removal efficiency has been calculated for inlet air velocities of 1 m/s and 3 m/s. It has been observed that removal efficiency is higher in case of higher inlet air velocity.

  • A series of tests dedicated to station blackout (SBO) accident scenarios have been recently performed at the $Prim{\ddot{a}}rkreislauf-Versuchsanlage$ (primary coolant loop test facility; PKL) facility in the framework of the OECD/NEA PKL-3 project. These investigations address current safety issues related to beyond design basis accident transients with significant core heat up. This work presents a detailed analysis using the best estimate thermal-hydraulic code TRACE (v5.0 Patch4) of different SBO scenarios conducted at the PKL facility; failures of high- and low-pressure safety injection systems together with steam generator (SG) feedwater supply are considered, thus calling for adequate accident management actions and timely implementation of alternative emergency cooling procedures to prevent core meltdown. The presented analysis evaluates the capability of the applied TRACE model of the PKL facility to correctly capture the sequences of events in the different SBO scenarios, namely the SBO tests H2.1, H2.2 run 1 and H2.2 run 2, including symmetric or asymmetric secondary side depressurization, primary side depressurization, accumulator (ACC) injection in the cold legs and secondary side feeding with mobile pump and/or primary side emergency core coolant injection from the fuel pool cooling pump. This study is focused specifically on the prediction of the core exit temperature, which drives the execution of the most relevant accident management actions. This work presents, in particular, the key improvements made to the TRACE model that helped to improve the code predictions, including the modeling of dynamical heat losses, the nodalization of SGs' heat exchanger tubes and the ACCs. Another relevant aspect of this work is to evaluate how well the model simulations of the three different scenarios qualitatively and quantitatively capture the trends and results exhibited by the actual experiments. For instance, how the number of SGs considered for secondary side depressurization affects the heat transfer from primary side; how the discharge capacity of the pressurizer relief valve affects the dynamics of the transient; how ACC initial pressure and nitrogen release affect the grace time between ACC injection and subsequent core heat up; and how well the alternative feeding modes of the secondary and/or primary side with mobile injection pumps affect core quenching and ensure stable long-term core cooling under controlled boiling conditions.

  • 피동원자로건물냉각계통(PCCS)은 사고 발생 시 원자로건물로 방출된 열을 제거하여 원전의 건전성을 보장하기 위해 설계되었다. PCCS의 열제거 성능은 증기-공기 혼합물의 응축열전달에 의해 결정된다. 본 연구에서는 응축열전달계수의 예측 정확도를 향상시키기 위해 새로운 상관식을 이식한 MARS-KS 코드를 사용하여 PCCS의 열제거 성능을 평가하였다. MARS-KS 코드에 사용된 새로운 상관식은 압력, 벽면과냉도, 비응축성 기체 질량분율 및 응축튜브의 종횡비와 같은 열전달계수에 영향을 미치는 변수들을 이용하여 개발하였고, 이는 MARS-KS코드의 기본 응축 모델인 Colburn-Hougen 모델을 대체하여 적용되었다. 대형파단 냉각재상실사고 발생 시 PCCS의 운전에 따른 다양한 열수력학적 변수들을 분석하였고, 열제거 성능 평가를 위해 새로운 상관식이 적용된 MARS-KS 코드의 원자로건물 압력거동 계산결과와 기존의 응축모델을 이용한 해석결과를 비교하였다.

  • The thermal-hydraulics phenomena in a containment during an accident will necessarily include radiative heat transfer (i) within the gas mixture due to the high radiative absorption and emission of steam and (ii) between the gas mixture and the surrounding structures. The analysis of some previous PANDA experiments (PSI, Switzerland) demonstrated the importance of the proper modelling of radiation for the benefit of numerical simulations. These results together with dedicated scoping calculations conducted for the present experiments indicated that the radiative heat transfer is considerable, even for a very low amount of steam (≈2%). The H2P2 series conducted in the large-scale PANDA facility at the Paul-Scherrer-Institut (PSI) in the framework of the OECD/NEA HYMERES-2 project is intended to enhance the understanding of thermal radiation phenomena and to provide a benchmark for corresponding numerical simulations. Thus, the test matrix was tailored around the two opposite extremes: either gas compositions with small steam content such that radiative heat transfer phenomena can be neglected. Or gas mixtures containing larger amounts of steam, so that radiative heat transfer is expected to play a dominant role. The H2P2 series consists of 5 experiments designed to isolate the radiation phenomena from convective and diffusive effects as much as possible. One vessel with a diameter of 4 m and a height of 8 m was preconditioned with different mixtures of air / steam at room and elevated temperatures. This was followed by the build-up of a stable helium stratification at constant pressure in the upper part of the vessel. After that, helium was injected from the top into the vessel which leads to an increase of the vessel pressure and a corresponding elevation-dependent and transient rise of the gas temperature. It is shown that even the addition of small amounts of steam in the initial gas atmosphere considerably impacts the radiative heat transport throughout all phases of the experiments and markedly influences i) the monitored gas peak temperature, ii) the temperature history during the compression and iii) the following relaxation phase after the compression was stopped. These PANDA experiments are the first of its kind conducted in a large scale thermal-hydraulic facility.

  • 배경: 경동맥 내막절제술은 심한 경동맥 협착증이 있는 환자에서 발생 가능성이 높은 뇌졸중을 예방하는 데 효과적인 것으로 알려져 있으나 술 후 사망이나 뇌졸중 등의 심각한 합병증을 유발할 수 있다. 이에 저자들은 경동맥 협착증에 대한 수술적 치료의 결과를 분석하여 향후 수술의 합병증을 줄이고자 본 연구를 시행하였다. 대상 및 방법: 1996년 2월부터 2004년 7월까지 경동맥 협착증으로 한 명의 술자에 의해 경동맥 내막절제술을 시행 받은 74명(76예)의 의무기록을 후향적으로 분석하였다. 결과: 남자가 64명, 여자가 10명이었고 평균연령은 63.6세($40{\sim}77$세)였다. 경동맥 내막절제술만을 시행한 경우가 63예, 내막절제술과 함께 패취를 이용하여 경동맥 성형술을 시행한 경우가 8예, 내막절제술과 함께 경동맥의 일부를 절제한 후 단단 문합한 경우가 5예였다. 수술 중 동맥내 션트는 29예에서 사용되었다. 총경동맥과 외경동맥을 겸자한 후의 평균 내경동맥 역류압은 뇌파의 허혈성 변화가 있었던 25예(A군)의 경우 $23.48{\pm}10.04$ mmHg이었고, 뇌파의 허혈성 변화가 없었던 51예(B군)의 경우 $47.16{\pm}16.04$ mmHg이었다. 두 군 간의 내경동맥 역류압의 평균치는 통계학적으로 차이가 없었으나 (p=0.095) 뇌파의 허혈성 변화가 나타난 환자의 내경동맥 역류압은 모두 40 mmHg 이하였다. 내경동맥 역류압에 관계없이 뇌파의 허혈성 변화가 없으면 동맥내 션트를 시행하지 않고 수술하였다. 합병증은 일시적인 설하신경 마비 4예, 기존의 뇌경색 부위에 발생한 뇌출혈 2예, 경미한 뇌경색 1예, 봉합 부위의 혈액 누출에 의한 혈종 1예, 술 중 과도한 견인에 의해 유발된 것으로 생각되는 후두 부종에 의한 상기도 폐쇄 2예였다. 기존의 뇌경색 부위에 발생한 뇌출혈 2예 중 1예는 응급 수술을 시행한 경우로 뇌출혈이 심해 보존치료 도중 사망하였다. 결론: 경동맥 내막절제술은 수술 사망률이 낮은 비교적 안전한 수술 방법이다. 허혈성 뇌손상을 예방하기 위해 사용되는 동맥내 션트는 내경동맥 역류압보다는 뇌파의 허혈성 변화 여부에 따라 사용되어야 한다고 생각한다. 후두 부종을 예방하기 위해 수술 중 과도한 견인을 피하고 수술 직후 혈압을 엄격히 관리해야 하며, 후두 부종이 의심되면 작은 구경의 튜브를 이용한 기관 삽관이나 응급 기관절개술 등을 통하여 신속하게 기도를 확보해야 한다.

  • Circulatory and respiratory activities were observed in men exposed to the environment of engine room of a cruising Republic of Korea Navy ship and compared to the control values obtained in an ordinary laboratory room on land. The environment of an engine room of cruising navy ship was presumed to be a multiple stress acting on men. The environment of the engine room included high temperature $(35-42^{\circ}C)$, low relative humidity (20-38% saturation), vibration (about 7 cycles per second), rolling and pitching of ship and noises. Sixteen men were divided into two groups consisted of each 8 subjects. Subjects of sea duty group had experience of continuous on board duty averaging 3.5 years. Men of land duty group had no experience of on board activity. On land observations were made on one day prior to the boarding and leaving the port and four days after landing. In between observations in the engine room were made on the first, 5 th, 9 th, 12 th, and 14 th day of on board activity. The whole experimental period lasted for 20 days. Measurements on circulatory and respiratory parameters were at standing resting state (after 30 minutes standing in the case of on land study and 15 minutes in engine room study) and within one minute after cessation of on the spot running of which rhythm was 30/min. and lasted for 5 minutes. Oxygen consumption and pulmonary function test were done in the period of two minutes from the 3rd to 5th minutes of running. The following results were obtained. 1. Body temperature showed no change regardless of group difference or on land or on board measurements. 2. Pulse rate increased markedly after boarding the ship id both groups. Pulse rate increased from the first day on board at rest and after exercise as compared to the on land control value. This increase in pulse rate was more marked after exercise. Sea duty group showed less increase in pulse rate at rest than the land duty group. Standing and resting pulse rate of sea duty group on lam was 81 and increased to 87 at the 5th day on board and remained smaller than the land duty group throughout the period on board. Control standing and resting pulse rate of land duty group on land was 76 and reached 89 at the 9th day on board and thereafter decreased a little. Pulse rate of land duty group at rest on board remained greater than that of sea duty group throughout the period on board. 3. Systolic blood pressure of sea duty group increased after boarding the ship and remained higher than the control value on land. In the land duty group, however, systolic blood pressure decreased during the period on board the ship. Diastolic blood pressure decreased in both groups. 4. Resting breathing rate of land duty group increased and remained higher than the control value on land. In sea duty group, however, resting breathing rate showed a transient increase on the 1st day on board and decreased thereafter to the control value on land and kept the same level throughout the period of cruise. Absolute value of breathing rate in the sea duty group was greater than the land duty group both at rest and after exercise. 5. There was a lowering of breathing efficiency in both groups. Thus, increases in tidal volume and minute ventilation volume and decreases in maximum breathing capacity, vital capacity, capacity ratio and air velocity Index were observed after boarding the ship. An increase in ventilation equivalent was also observed in both groups. The lowering of breathing efficiency was more marked in the land duty group than the sea duty group. 6. Energy expediture increased in both groups during their stay on the ship and was more marked in the sea duty group. 7, Lactate concentration in venous blood at rest and after exercise increased after boarding the ship and no group difference was observed.

  • Urethane 마취 가토에서 뇌내 alpha-1및 alpha-2 adrenoceptor의 작용에 미치는 calcium antagonist의 영항을 알아보고자 뇌실내 methoxamine과 clonidine의 혈압및 심박수 변동에 미치는 diltiazem, nifedipine의 영향을 조사한 결과, 1). 뇌실내 methgramine(1mg)은 혈압상승및 심박수 감소를 일으켰고, 뇌실내 clonidine$(30{\mu}g)$은 혈압하강및 심박수 감소를 일으켰다. 2). 뇌실내 diltiazem과 nifedipine은 dose-dependent한 혈압하강을 일으켰으며 심박수 감소를 일으켰다. Diltiazem에 비하여 nifedipine은 혈압하강 효과는 크고 심박수 감소효과는 작았다. 뇌실내 diltiazem$(400{\mu}g)$, nifedipine$(35{\mu}g)$의 혈압하강 작용은 완만하고 지속적이었으나 같은 양의 정맥내 투여효과는 일과성이었다. 3). 뇌실내 diltiazem$(400{\mu}g)$이나 nifedipine$(35,\;350{\mu}g)$ 처리 후에 methoxamine(1mg)의 혈압상승 효과는 영향받지 않았으나 심박수감소 효과는 유의하게 감약되었다. 4). Clonidine의 혈압하강 작용은 뇌실내 diltiazem$(400{\mu}g)$이나 nifedipine$(35,\;350{\mu}g)$ 처리 후에 감약되었으나 정맥 내 diltiazem$(200{\mu}g/kg)$이나 nifedipine$(30{\mu}g/kg)$ 후에는 영향받지 않았다. Clonidine의 심박수 감소작용은 .뇌실내및 정맥내 diltiazem이나 nifedipine 처리후에 감약되었다. 5). 뇌실내 clonidine$(30{\mu}g)$ 처 리후 뇌실내 diltiazem$(400{\mu}g)$과 nifedipine$(350{\mu}g)$의 혈압하강및 심박수 감소효과는 영향 받지 않고 그대로 나타났다. 이상의 결과로 diltiazem과 nifedipine은 가토뇌내에서 methoxamine에 의한 혈압상승의 작용점인 alrfia-1 adrenoceptor의 흥분에는 영향을 미치지 못하나 clonidine의 작용점인 alpha-2 adrenoceptor의 흥분에 의한 혈압하강및 심박수 감소효과는 억제한다고 추론하였다.

  • The cactus family Cactaceae, numbering about 1,500 species, is a fleshy-stemmed perennial plant which is principally distributed in the south and north America. On the other hand, the cactus plant is presumed to be introduced into Korea in 1912-1945, thereafter it has been cultivated merely in favor of ornamentation with the exception of being occasionally used as medication among laymen. Opuntia elata which belongs to Opuntia genus, the Cactaceae family is one of the cacti being cultivated a great deal in Korea. Cho et. al. reported in 1974 that Opuntia dilenii manifested the cardiac inhibitory effect and oxytocic effect, and its mechanism might be partially due to the direct action. Besides this, there are few reports on the pharmacological research concerning Opuntia genus to be demonstrated in Korea. However, some other cacti have the remarkable pharmacological effects; the active ingredients, mescaline, anhalamine, anhalanine, etc. from Peyote cactus (Lophophora williamsii) belonging to Lophophora genus have the psychotomimetic and sympathomimetic effects, and the cardioactive glycosides from Cactus Grandifolius (Selenicereus grandiflorus) belonging to Cereus genus have the cardioactive and diuretic effects. The authors hereby inquired into this study to find out the propriety of the pharmacological properties of the ethanol extract of Opuntia elata (EX) on the heart, blood pressure, respiration, intestine and uterus in the experimental animals. The results of the experiment were as follows: 1. Administration of EX manifested the cardiac inhibitory effect caused by the negative inotropic action in the isolated heart of frog, and the pretreatment of atropine did not affect the inhibitory effect produced by EX. 2. Administration of EX manifested the transient hypotensive effect in the intact rabbit, and the pretreatment of atropine did not affect the hypotensive effect produced by EX. 3. Administration of the small dose of EX manifested no significant effect, but moderate dose or more the stimulating effect, and the large dose the asphyxia on the respiratory motility in the intact rabbit. 4. Administration of EX manifested the sustained augmentation of contractility in the excised duodenum of rabbit, and the pretreatment of atropine did not affect the stimulating effect produced by EX. 5. Administration of EX manifested the sustained augmentation of contractility in the excised pregnant uterus of rabbit, and the pretreatment of atropine and oxytocin did not affect the oxytocic effect produced by EX, but that of barium chloride more or less stimulated the oxytocic effect produced by EX.
