Experimental studies of the hydrodynamic performance of the draft tube conical spout-fluid bed (DCSF) were conducted using pharmaceutical pellets. The experiments were carried out in a DCSF consisted of two sections: (a) a conical section with the cross section of $120mm{\times}250mm$ and the height of 270 mm, (b) a cylindrical section with the diameter of 250 mm and the height of 600 mm. The flow characteristics of solids were investigated with a high speed camera and a pezoresistive absolute pressure transducer simultaneously. These characteristics revealed different flow regimes in the DCSF: packed bed at low gas velocities, fluidized bed in draft tube at higher gas velocities until minimum spouting, and spouted bed. The stable spouting was identified by the presence of two dominant frequencies of the power spectrum density of pressure fluctuation signature: (i) the frequency band 6-9 Hz and (ii) the frequency band 12-15 Hz. The pressure drops across the draft tube as well as the annulus measured in order to better recognize the flow structure in the DCSF. It was observed that the pressure drop across the draft tube, the pressure drop across the annulus, and the minimum spouting velocity increase with the increase in the height of draft tube and distance of the entrainment zone, but with the decrease in the distributor hole pitch. Finally, this study provided novel insight into the hydrodynamic of DCSF, particularly minimum spouting and stable spouting in the DCSF which contains valuable information for process design and scale-up of spouted bed equipment.

본 연구는 하상마찰의 척도인 등가조고를 이용하여 자갈하천의 하상저항을 산정하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 국내 8개 자갈하천에서 실측을 통하여 마찰계수 f를 산정하였고, 하상재료의 누가입경분포를 조사하였으며, 각 단면의 실측 마찰계수를 나타내기 위하여 대수 연직유속분포를 가정하여 계산된 평균 등가조고와 누가입경분포를 이용하여 계산된 구간 등가조고를 비교하였다. 더불어 등가조고를 사용하여 계산된 Manning 계수를 Strickler 유형의 기존 경험식에 의한 Manning 계수와 비교함으로써, 국내 자갈하천에서 기존 경험식을 이용한 하상저항 산정의 적용성을 검토하였다. 분석결과, 구간 등가조고가 대상구간의 하상특성을 대표할 수 있음을 확인하였고, 구간 등가조고로 계산된 Manning 계수가 실측 자료로부터 계산된 Manning 계수와 비교하여 RMS 오차가 0.003이하로 계산되어 실무 적용에 타당할 것으로 판된되었다. 또한 실제 하천에서 등가조고 $k_s$와 특정입경 $D_i$과의 비례계수 사이의 상관성이 적은 것으로 나타나, 하상 특정입경을 사용하여 Manning 계수를 산정하는 기존 경험식을 적용할 때 적절한 방정식의 선택에 어려움이 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Fixed bed drying method was selected to reduce the initial drying time of squid and the effects of drying air temperature and bed height on the drying rate were investigated, with following results. 1. The drying rate in the fixed bed dryer was faster than that of natural convection type dryer heated indirectly and that of hot air dryer heated directly. 2, Shirai-equation was applicable to squid being dried. Using the equation, drying rate constant obtained was as shown in table 1.

Flow resistance in a natural stream is caused by complex factors, such as the grains on the bed, vegetation, and bed-form, reach profile. Flow resistance in a generally stable gravel bed stream is due to protrudent grains from bed. Therefore, the flow resistance can be calculated by equivalent roughness in gravel bed stream, but estimation of equivalent roughness is difficult because nonuniform size and irregular arrangement of distributed grain on natural stream bed. In previous study, equivalent roughness is empirically estimated using characteristic grain size. However, application of empirical equation have uncertainty in stream that stream bed characteristic differs. In this study, we developed a model using an analytical method considering grain diameter distribution characteristics of grains on the bed and also taking into account flow resistance acting on each grain. Also, the model consider the protrusion height of grain.

The bed combustion in an incinerator interacts with the gas flow region through heat and mass transfer. Combined bed combustion and gas flow simulations are performed to investigate this coupled interaction for various operating conditions and furnace configurations. Radiation onto the bed from the furnace is interrelated with the combustion characteristics in the bed, and is also affected by the flow pattern in the gas flow region. Since the contribution of gaseous emission to the total radiation is significant, an adequate flow pattern in a well-designed furnace shape would lead to an increased heat influx on the bed, especially in the early stage of the waste combustion. Advancing the initiation point of the waste combustion can also reduce the size of the lower gas temperature region above the bed, which can be achieved by controlling operating conditions such as the waste feeding rate, the bed height and the primary air flow distribution.

A packed bed reactor (PBR) was fed with nitrate containing synthetic wastewater or effluent from a sequencing batch reactor used for nitrification. The C source introduced into the PBR consisted of volatile fatty acids (VFAs) produced from anaerobic acidogenesis of food wastes. When nitrate loading rates ranged from $0.50\;to\;1.01\;kg\;N/m^{3}{\cdot}d$, the PBR exhibited $100{\sim}98.8%\;NO_{3}^{-}-N$ removal efficiencies and nitrite concentrations in the effluent ranged from $0\;to\;0.6\;NO_{2}^{-}-N\;mg/L$. When the PBR was further investigated to determine nitrate removal activity along the bed height using a nitrate loading rate less than $1.01\;kg\;N/m^{3}{\cdot}d$, 100% nitrate removal efficiency was observed. Approximately 83.2% nitrate removal efficiency was observed in the lower 50% of the packed-bed height. When reactor performance at a C/N ratio of 4 and a C/N ratio of 5 was compared, the PBR showed better removal efficiency (96.5%) of nitrate and less nitrite concentration in the effluent at the C/N ratio of 5. VFAs were found to be a good alternative to methanol as a carbon source for denitrification of a municipal wastewater containing 40 mg-N/L.

Nitrifier consortium entrapped in Ca-alginate bead were packed into aerated packed bed bioreactor and non aerated packed bed bioreactor and the performances of two bioreactors were evaluated for the removal of ammonia nitrogen from synthetic aquaculture water. Total ammonia nitrogen(TAN) removal rate was decrease in aerated packed bed bioreactor below 0.3hr of hydraulic residence time(HRT), but increased in non aerated packed bed bioreactor until 0.5hr of HRT. At HRT of 0.05hr, TAN removal rate of non aerated packed bed bioreactor was about 335g TAN/㎥/day and the optimum ratio of packing height and inside diameter of reactor (H/D) was 4. The performance of two bioreactors indicated that non aerated packed bed bioreactor was better than aerated packed bed bioreactor in ammonia removal from synthetic aquaculture water.

기존의 가정용 요양침대는 매트리스 지지판(mattress support platform) 하부에 설치된 복잡한 기구부로 인해 저상화 실현이 어려웠다. 본 논문에서는 등판과 다리판의 각도를 조절하면서도 저상화가 가능한 요양침대의 구동 메커니즘을 제안한다. 등판과 다리판의 메커니즘은 듀얼 모터(dual motor)를 적용하고, 최적화 기법으로 설계변수를 결정하였다. 승강 메커니즘은 풀리(pulley)구조를 적용하여 제한된 구동기의 가동범위를 최대 두 배까지 높일 수 있도록 설계하였다. 건강한 5명의 피험자($24.4{\pm}0.5$세)가 방바닥에서 240mm의 저상 프로토타입 요양침대와, 600mm의 일반적인 높이의 침대에 올라갈 때의 그 이동 거리를 측정하여 저상화 침대에 대한 유효성을 평가하였다. 그 결과 저상 요양침대를 사용할 때의 이동 거리는 기존 높이의 침대에 비해 평균 38% 작았다. 이것은 저상요양침대가 고령자의 신체적 부담을 줄여주며, 일반침대보다 일상생활 지원에 효과적이라는 것을 보여주었다.

In order to understand the breakthrough behaviour of iodine vapours on impregnated carbon systems, an active carbon, 80 CTC grade, $12{\times}30$ BSS particle size and $1104\;m^2/g$ surface area, was impregnated with metal salts such Cu, Cr, Ag, Mo and Zn, and an organic compound Triethylene diamine (TEDA) to prepare different carbon systems such as whetlerite, whetlerite/TEDA, whetlerite/KI/KOH and ASZMT. The prepared adsorbents along with active carbon were characterized for surface area and pore volume by $N_2$ adsorption at liquid nitrogen temperature. These carbon systems were compared for their CT (concentration X time) values at 12.73 to 53.05 cm/sec space velocities and 2 to 5 cm carbon column bed heights. The carbon column of 5.0 cm bed height and 1.0 cm diameter was found to be providing protection against iodine vapours up to 5.5 h at 3.712 mg/L iodine vapour concentration and 12.73 cm/sec space velocity. The study clearly indicated the adsorption capacities of carbon systems to be directly proportional to their surface area values. Dead layer with all the prepared carbon systems was found to be less than 2.0 cm indicating it to be minimum bed height to have protection against $I_2$ vapours. Effect of carbon bed height and flow rate was also studied. The active carbon showed maximum protection at all bed heights and flow rates in comparison to all other impregnated carbon systems, showing that only physical adsorption is responsible for the removal of iodine vapours.
