The flow characteristics of 2-valve and 4-valve cylinder heads with various blocked-valve were experimentally investigated in a steady flow rig. Effects of the blocked-valve configurations on flow coefficient, swirl and tumble intensity are studied. Compared to the conventional valve, the blocked valve in both cylinder heads have the much lower flow coefficient and the much higher intensity of swirl and tumble. Under the same size of blockage, the value of flow coefficient and swirl(or tumble) intensity were varied according to the position of blockage. Throughout these steady flow test the optimized positions of blockage in both cylinder heads were determined.

In the steam system, a stream trap valve discharges a condensate and a non-condensable gas. It also prevents stream from being leaked. The free float stream trap valve is a mechanical type of stream trap. The valve is opened when a hallow ball is floated due to the density of the condensate through the condensate flows into the valve. On the other hand, when the flow of the condensate is completed, the valve is closed as the float subsides due to the weight of the structure and the stream is blocked. In addition, the bimetal lifts the hallow ball, which discharges the non-condensable gas. In this study, the performance of the properties of the free float stream trap valve, the method of support for three points, and the orifice design are researched. Moreover, the condensate discharge capacity of the free float stream trap valve is calculated from the experiment.

The static characteristics of four-nozzle flapper valves are investigated with both constant flow and constant supply pressure. The ranges, in which linearization of these characteristics would be valid, are discussed. Linearized dynamic model is also derived. Numerical simulations of nonlinear dynamic model are carried out by HyPneu to make an assessment of the effect of input step size in both cases of no-load and blocked-load operation.

Microfluidic single chip integrating thermopneumatic micropump and micro check valve are developed. The micropump and micorvalve are made of biocompatible materials, glass and PDMS, so as to be applicable to the biochip. By using the passive-type check valve, backward flow and fluid leakage are blocked and flow control is stable and precise. The chip is composed of three PDMS layers and a glass substrate. In the chip, flow channel and pump chamber were made on the PDMS layers by the replica molding technique and pump heater was made on the glass substrate by Cr/Au deposition. Diameter of the pump chamber is 7 mm and the width and depth of the channel are 200 and $180{\mu}m$, respectively. The PDMS layers chip and the heater deposited glass chip are combined by a jig and a clamp for pumping operation, and they are separable so that PDMS chip is used as a disposable but the heater chip is able to be used repeatedly. Pumping performance was simulated by CFD software and investigated experimentally. The performance was the best when the duty ratio of the applied voltage to the heater was 33%.

This paper develops a pump system for patient with chronic pain or cancer. The pump module is consists of two micro-valve and membrane. The micro-valve is operated by a solenoid. With two solenoid valves which are connected via a drug transport line, the inlet and outlet are completely blocked. A silicon rubber membrane located between the two valves makes the flow-rate constant without any backflow. This pump module can control the flow-rate of drugs by controlling the time that the valves are opened and closed. The reservoir consists of a drug chamber and a gas chamber. As the gas chamber encloses the drug chamber, propellant gas which is injected into the gas chamber pressurizes the drug chamber regardless of volume of the drug chamber. To design the pump module, analysis a constant efficiency test, and accuracy test for the pump module were conducted.

In this study, among in various scenarios of the duration degradation of the fuel cell, countermeasures for the cathode carbon carrier oxidation and the deactivation of catalyst by hydrogen / air interface formation have been studied. so the system was applied to the air cutoff valve. In terms of the component, the cold start performance, electrical stability, the airtight performance were mainly designed and their performance was confirmed. And in terms of the system, the air electrode flow is blocked off, so the oxygen concentration drops when system is powered off, As a result, By reducing unit cell voltage which affect the durability of the fuel cell reached up to 0.8V, the improved durability of the fuel cell was confirmed.

이 연구는 자기공명영상검사 시 조영제 주입용으로 사용되는 자동주입기에서 조영제 역류에 의한 생리식염수의 오탁 현상을 방지할 수 있는 대안을 모색하고자 하였다. 연구방법은 실린지 내에서 조영제 역류를 차단할 대안으로 밸브를 자체 제작한 다음, 임상적용의 유용성을 알아보기 위해 생리식염수의 상태를 세 그룹으로 나누고 조영제 주입을 실험하여 각각 채취한 생리식염수의 지방소거 T1 강조영상으로 신호강도를 비교하였다. 연구결과, 그룹 1의 조영제 주입 전 생리식염수와 그룹 3의 역류방지용 밸브를 적용한 조영제 주입 후 생리식염수가 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다(p>0.05). 이는 자체 제작한 역류방지용 밸브가 조영제 주입 시 생리식염수로 역류하는 조영제를 완벽히 차단한 것으로 분석된다. 결론적으로 조영제 자동주입기를 활용한 자기공명영상 동적검사 시 본 연구에서 제시한 역류방지밸브를 적용한다면 조영제 역류로 인한 생리식염수의 오탁 현상을 예방할 수 있으리라 본다.

A control method for a robot hand grasping a object in a partially unknown environment will be proposed, where a proximate sensor detecting the distance between the fingertip and object was used. Particularly, the finger joints were driven servo-pneumatically in this study. Based on the proximate sensor signal the finger motion controller could plan the grasping process divided in three phases ; fast aproach, slow transitional contact and contact force control. That is, the fingertip approached to the object with full speed, until the output signal of the proximate sensor began to change. Within the perating range of the proximate sensor, the finger joint was moved by a state-variable feedback position controller in order to obtain a smooth contact with the object. The contact force of fingertip was then controlled using the blocked-line pressure sensitivity of the flow control servovalve for finger joint control. In this way, the grasping impact could be reduced without reducing the object approaching speed. The performance of the proposed grasping method was experimentally compared with that of a open loop-controlled one.

완충용액과 분석시료의 확산으로 발생하는 측정 오차를 최소화하기 위하여 공기주입 장치와 공기제거 장치를 설치한 표면 플라즈 몬 공명 타원계측기(surface plasmon resonance ellipsometer: SPRE)를 새로이 제안하고 이를 제작하였다. SPRE에서 완충용액과 분석시료간의 상호 확산은 분석시료의 농도를 변화시켜 굴절률 측정에 영향을 주고, 이 결과 생체분자 물질의 접합 특성이 명확하게 나타나지 않는다. 이러한 SPRE의 측정 장치에 공기를 주입하는 장치를 추가로 설치하여 두 용액의 확산을 막고, 특히 불필요한 공기가 채널 내부로 유입되어 생기는 잡음신호를 없애기 위하여 공기제거 장치를 사용함으로써 신뢰성 있는 SPRE의 측정 결과를 얻을 수 있음을 확인하였다.

We are developing a vol-oxidizer which transforms the spent $UO_2$ pellets into the $U_3O_8$ power through oxidizing process. The vol-oxidizer consists of furnace, filter, heater and valve etc. When the filter is blocked by the powder, the internal pressure of the furnace is increased owing to the air flow restriction. Then, the furnace vessel is swelled and deformed by it. In this paper, we proposed a procedure of the thermal analysis for furnace vessel design of spent fuel vol-oxidizer. In this work, we determined the thickness of the furnace through analyzing the internal pressure and the thermal stress of the furnace with respect to various pressure and temperature. To analyze the thermal stress, we used ANSYS 8.0 for constructing a FEM model of the furnace, and then analyzed it based on the ASME code. We also surveyed the material property and yield stress of SUS304 with various temperature. Analysis results are compared with the yield stress of the material. We manufactured the furnace and conduct the verification experiments.
