Estimating the workability of self-compacting concrete (SCC) is very important both in laboratories and on construction site. A method using visual information during the mixing process was proposed in this paper to estimate the workability of SCC. First, fourteen specimens of concrete were produced by a single-shaft mixer. A digital camera was used to record all the mixing processes. Second, employing the digital image processing, the visual information from mixing process images was extracted. The concrete pushed by the rotating blades forms two boundaries in the images. The shape of the upper boundary and the vertical distance between the upper and lower boundaries were used as two visual features. Thirdly, slump flow test and V-funnel test were carried out to estimate the workability of each SCC. Finally, the vertical distance between the upper and lower boundaries andthe shape of the upper boundary were used as indicators to estimate the workability of SCC. The vertical distance between the upper and lower boundaries was related to the slump flow, the shape of the upper boundary was related to the V-funnel flow time. Based on these relationships, the workability of SCC could be estimated using the mixing process images. This estimating method was verified by three more experiments. The experimental results indicate that the proposed method could be used to automatically estimate SCC workability.

In-mold Coating is a method that can simultaneously perform injection molding and surface coating in injection mold. The material used for coating is two-component polyurethane which is composed of polyol and isocyanate. L-type mixing head can be used to mix polyol and isocyanate uniformly, and inject them inside the mold cavity. The surface quality of the injection molded products by using in-mold coating depends on the mixing uniformity between main agent and hardener. In this study, flow analysis was performed to design a mixing head for uniform mixing of two-component polyurethane. Especially the effects of design parameters of mixing head on mixing uniformity and nozzle pressure were investigated. The parameters of mixing head were mixing chamber diameter, cleaning cylinder diameter, nozzle alignment angle in the horizontal and vertical direction, and cleaning piston position. It was found that optimal design values were mixing chamber diameter of 3.5 mm, cleaning cylinder diameter of 5.0 mm, nozzle horizontal/vertical alignment angles of 140°/160°, and cleaning piston position of 1.8 mm. The optimal values would be used to develop a two-component mixing head achieving an uniform mixing for in-mold coating.

굴절 지수 구조 매개 변수(refractive index structure parameter) $C_n^2$의 증가는 보통 가온위(virtual potential temperature) ${\theta}_v$와 혼합비(mixing ratio) q의 연직 기울기가 최대가 되는 고도에서 발생하며, 대류 경계층(convective boundary layer)의 고도를 추정하는데 있어서 매우 유용한 매개 변수로 사용된다. 이 연구에서는 대류 경계층 고도의 추정에 이용되는 $C_n^2$ 첨두의 발생 특성이 조사되었으며, 또한 UHF 레이더로 관측된 $C_n^2$와 연직 속도의 분산 ${\sigma}_w$ 자료를 이용하여 대류 경계층 고도를 객관적으로 추정하는 방법이 제시되었다. UHF 레이더의 $C_n^2$ 연직 분포에서 첨두는 대류 경계층의 정상부뿐만 아니라 잔류층의 정상부나 구름층에서도 발생하였다. 약한 태양 복사로 연직 혼합이 뚜렷하지 않은 경우에 대류 경계층 고도에 상응하는 $C_n^2$ 첨두는 레윈존데(rawinsonde) 관측 자료로부터 추정된 대류 경계층 고도보다 약간 낮았다. 반면에, 강한 태양 복사에 의해 연직 혼합이 강하고 유입대에서 ${\theta}_v$와 q의 연직 기울기가 매우 클 경우에 대류 경계층 고도에 상응하는 $C_n^2$ 첨두는 레윈존데 관측 자료로부터 추정된 대류 경계층 고도와 잘 일치하였다. $C_n^2$ 첨두의 고도를 대류 경계층 고도로 결정하는 최대 후방 산란 강도 방법(maximurn backscatter intensity method)은 $C_n^2$ 연직 분포에서 하나의 첨두가 있을 경우에는 오류 없이 대류 경계층 고도를 추정하였지만 대류 경계층 고도 위에 잔류층이나 구름층이 있을 경우에는 대류 경계층 고도를 잘못 추정하였다. 본 연구에서 새로이 제시된 방법은 UHF 레이더의 $C_n^2$와 ${\sigma}_w$ 자료를 이용하여 대류 경계층 고도로부터 오는 $C_n^2$ 첨두를 잔류층이나 구름층으로부터 오는 $C_n^2$ 첨두로부터 구별하여 오류 없이 대류 경계층 고도를 추정하였다. 또한 이 방법은 대류 경계층 고도의 일반화 추정에 적용되었으며, 후방 산란 강도의 연직 분포에서 두개의 첨두가 존해할 경우에도 더욱 신뢰성 있고 안정되게 대류 경계층 고도를 실시간으로 추정하였다.

In the water purification plant, the mixture of water and chemical from the mixing basin enters the flocculation basin. The rotating flocculators are generally used for the efficient flocculation of dregs. In this paper, the performance of flocculators of a vertical paddle type, widely used in the typical flocculation basins, and a hydro-foil type, recently disseminated in the field, are compared with each other by use of the numerical method. Also the characteristics and the efficiency are analyzed with CFD techniques. The strain rate and the eddy viscosity are compared for two types to predict the mixing efficiency, and the maximum speed and its location are pursued from the computed data. The hydrofoil type shows that the eddy viscosity is enhanced 1.66 to 3.03 times larger than that of vertical paddle type, and also produced 1.87 to 1.95 times larger flocs for each stage. However, the rapid rotation of hydrofoil may chop the floc to small size due to the higher turbulence intensity. From the result of computation, the strong and weak points of each type have been analyzed for the decision making.
