The new empirical static model was constructed on the basis of dimension analysis to predict the pressure drop according to the operating conditions. The empirical static model consists of the initial pressure drop term (${\Delta}P_{initial}$) and the dust mass number term($N_{dust}=\frac{{\omega}_0{\nu}_f}{P_{pulse}t}$), and two parameters (dust deposit resistance and exponent of dust mass number) have been estimated from experimental data. The optimum injection distance was identified in the 64 experimental data at the fixed filtration velocity and pulse pressure. The dust deposit resistance ($K_d$), one of the empirical static model parameters got the minimum value at d=0.11m, at which the total pressure drop was minimized. The exponent of dust mass number was interpreted as the elasticity of pressure drop to the dust mass number. The elasticity of the unimodal behavior had also a maximum value at d=0.11m, at which the pressure drop increased most rapidly with the dust mass number. Additionally, the correlation coefficient for the new empirical static model was 0.914.

This paper reports the relation of concrete setting characteristic and lateral pressure in mass concrete wall such as side wall of LNG underground storage tank. In order to estimate the lateral pressure, initial setting time of low heat cement concrete with type of mineral admixture was measured for three concrete mixtures(W/P=41.6%) containing limestone powder, fly ash, and slag powder. As a result, the lateral pressure of the concrete containing limestone powder was the smallest than those of other concretes as well as the initial setting time.

The preparation of SiC powder by SHS in the system of $SiO_2-Mg-C$ was investigated in this study. The effects of various processing parameters such as the initial pressure of inert gas in reactor, the content of Mg and C in mixture and the size of $SiO_2$ particles on the synthesis of SiC by SHS methode were investigated. The minimum initial pressure of inert gas in reactor for SHS reaction in this system was 5 atm, and as the pressure increased, and the concentration of unreacted Mg decreased. At 50 atm of the initial inert gas pressure in reactor, the optimum composition for the preparation of pure SiC was $SiO_2+2.5Mg+1.2C$. SiC powder synthesized in this condition had a mixture of ${\alpha}-SiC\;and\;{\beta}-SiC$ with an irregular shape and the particle size of $0.5{\sim}0.8{\mu}m$.

This study investigates the combustion characteristics of methane-hydrogen-air premixture in a constant volume combustion chamber. Primary factors of the combustion characteristics of methane- hydrogen-air premixture are the equivalence ratio and hydrogen supplement rate. In the case of $\phi$= 1.1, maximum combustion pressure and heat release rate have peaks, and they increase as the initial pressure and hydrogen supplement rate increase. The total burning time is also the shortest at the $\phi$= 1.1, it shorten by lowering the initial pressure and by increasing the hydrogen supplement rate. The maximum flame temperature is shown at the $\phi$= 1.0, and increasing the initial pressure and hydrogen supplement rate, it increases. The concentration of NO reveals the highest value at the $\phi$= 0.9, and it increases by increasing the initial pressure and hydrogen supplement rate. It is also found that the limit of lean inflammability of methane-hydrogen-air premixture is greatly widened by increasing the hydrogen supplement rate.

The preparation of $TiB_2$ by SHS in $B_2O_3-Mg-TiO_2$ system was investigated in this study. In the preparation of $TiB_2$, the effect on reactivity and reaction products of the initial pressure of inert gas in reactor, the content of Mg and $TiO_2$ in mixture was investigated. The minimum initial pressure of inert gas in reactor for SHS reaction in this system was 5atm, and as the pressure increased, the concentration of unreacted Mg decreased and combustion temperature increased. At the initial inert gas pressure in reactor of 50atm, the optimum composition for the preparation of pure $TiB_2$ was $B_2O_3+5Mg+TiO_2$. The $TiB_2$ synthesized in this condition had an irregular shape and the particle size of $1\~3{\mu}m$.

This study is to investigate the pressure wave characteristics and the maximum pressure rise generated by instantaneous valve closure at the end of the straightening polybutylene piping system. Experiments were conducted under the following conditions: initial pressure $1\~5$ bar, flow velocity $\~0.5-3.0m/s$ and water temperature $25^{\circ}C$. Results indicated that the peak pressure generated by quick valve closure reached Joukowsky's value. We also found that the maximum pressure rise and the pressure history depended on not only initial steady pressure but also flow velocity.

This study is to assess the effects of increasing wall thickness on the safety margin of pressure tube in operating and of lowering initial hydrogen concentration on the DHC growth in respect to the improvement of the reliability of pressure tube in CANDU reactors. The pressure tube with thicker wall of 5.2 mm shows much higher safety margin for flaw tolerance by 25％ than the current 4.2mmm tube. The thicker pressure tubes have a great benefit in LBB assessment including the initial crack depth at which DHC occurs, the crack length at onset of leaking and the available time for action. The resistance for the pressure tube ballooning at LOCA accident is also increased with the thicker tube. The calculations for Heq concentration after 20 years of operation as a function of wall thickness and initial hydrogen concentration show that the 5.2 mm nil thickness tube with 5 ppm initial hydrogen concentration is the most resistant to DHC. with the lower initial hydrogen concentration, TSS temperature for the precipitation or hydride decreases and the crack growth during cooldown reduces.

This study establishes a numerical analysis model of the finite element overhung rotor supported by a DTRB and describes the stiffness properties of the DTRB. The vibration characteristics and contact pressure of the RBR system are predicted according to the DTRB support characteristics such as the initial axial compression and roller profile. The stiffness of the DTRB significantly varies depending on the initial axial compression and external load owing to the occurrence of rollers under the no-load condition and increase in the Hertz contact force. The increase in the initial axial compression increases the rigidity of the DTRB, thereby reducing the displacement of the RBR system and simultaneously increasing the natural frequency. However, above a certain initial axial compression, the effect becomes insignificant, and an excessive increase in the initial axial compression increases the contact pressure. The roller crowning radius, which gives a curvature in the longitudinal direction of the roller, decreases the displacement of the RBR system and increases the natural frequency as the value increases. However, an increase in the crowning radius increases the edge stress, causing a negative effect in terms of the contact pressure. These results show that the DTRB support characteristics required for reducing the vibration and contact pressure of the RBR system supported by the DTRB can be designed.

The variation of the reaction pressure and reaction product during the reaction was investigated according to the total mass of the reaction mixture at the optimum composition for the preparation of u-Si3N4 powder which had been confirmed in the former investigation; 'Preparation of $\alpha$-Si$_3$N$_4$ powder in reaction system containing molten salt by SHS - part 1. synthesizing of powder'. When the total mass of the reaction mixture was 100g, the minimum pressure for a complete reaction was 60atm in 5L reactor, whereas the reaction was incomplete in the case that the mass exceeded 200g because of pressure increase. Also, as the mass of the reaction mixture increased, the reactivity linearly decreased. Hence, the complete reaction was realized by decreasing an initial $N_2$ pressure, and thus obtained minimum initial pressure was recorded 20 atm for the initial mixture of 500g. The reason of the incomplete reaction with pressure Increase was found to be that NH$_4$Cl vapour which was suppressed by the gas pressure acted as a diluent.
