  • A Plate type pipe is used for heat exchange in radiator of a vehicle. The pipe has several rooms through which water flows and heat is dissipated into outside . In the case that there are small holes, cracks or some scratches on the plate, the radiators lost their functions due to Leakage. This may result in overheating of engine in a car. Thus, we need to perform the entire inspection of the plate type pipe in advance before assembling the radiator. In manufacturing process of the plate type pipe, the productive speed is very high and that may be performed continuously. So, there is no room to perform the outlook inspection by typical image processing techniques. This paper proposes a new method to inspect the outlook surface of the plate type pipe automatically with high speed. Especially, the sequential processing technique of an algorithm which detects defects on the surfaces of the plate type pipe is proposed for line scan camera which captures line image. To evaluate the inspection performance, a series of experiments is performed.

  • In these days, the gas or kerosene boiler was usually used as heating system. This study was carried out to investigate the merits of X-L pipe boiler with electric heat line that was specially manufactured. The electric heat line was inserted into inside of X-L pipe and voltage was impressed to electric heat line and, as a result, temperature of X-L pipe filled with heat medium was increased. As changing the number of electric heat line and voltage, the characteristics of X-L pipe boiler and its mechanism on heat generation were studied. Furthermore, the economical efficiency was evaluated by comparing heating cost of X-L pipe boiler with those of kerosene boiler and natural gas boiler, respectively. As the results, it was confirmed that heating cost of X-L pipe boiler was showed as 28% of kerosene boiler and 58% of natural gas boiler.

  • A knowledge of the resdual stress distribution at circumferential weldments can normally increase the accuracy of a fracture assessment in pipe line. In this paper, we present the measurements about the residual stress distributions at three kinds of circumferential butt welded pipes using the holl drilling strain gage method. By this experiment, we have obtined the following characteristics. At the inner surface of the pipe region near the center line of welding is under high tensile residual stress. However, as the distance from the center line of welding increases, the tensile component decreases and finally becomes compressive residual stress at region far away from the center line of welding. The longitudinal residual stress at the outer surface is compressive regardless of the diameter of pipe and the circumferential stress is changed from compressive to tensile as pipe diameter increases. The results also demonstrate that the residual stress is mainly caused by self-restraint bending force in the pipe welding.

  • Leakage of waterworks pipe line net cause loss of water resources, additional foundation of pressurization facilities from pressure loss and soil weakening near leaked pipe line, etc.. This makes it difficult to maintain and manage waterworks pipe line net and so cause serious economic loss. The rate of accounted water can be improved by monitoring always water pressure and flux, and so on. from isolated region, preparing positively against leakage accident and preventing leakage from occurring. Actually after isolating region, average rate of accounted water in this region went up 88.94% by continuously monitoring control of water pressure and inflow rate. It is about 9.44% higher than that of Busan metropolitan city in 2003, 79.5%.

  • The catenary line and feeder line installed on same electrical pole in opened place of AC electrical railroad. The Electrical pole has receive a different weight from the catenary line and feeder line. So we have designed the Feeder supporting metal with new shape and material based on this fact. And then we have examined the stability of Feeder supporting metal designed a steel pipe by FEM program. New steel pipe compared with existing steel pipe on a economy respect. That result give proof the stability and economy as feeder supporting steel. Therefore this device have a basic of Value Engineering, so we have the need of reflection to design as a device of new electrical pole.

  • A method to mitigate the thermal stratification phenomenon of pressurizer surge line is proposed by heating bottom outside of horizontal pipe. Unsteady two dimensional model has been used to numerically investigate an effect of heating the bottom of pipe. The dimensionless governing equations are solved by using the control volume formulation and SIMPLE algorithm. Temperature and streamline profiles of fluids and pipe walls with time are compared with the previous study result. The numerical result of this study shows that the outside heating can relaxate the thermal stratification flow of the pressurizer surge line. Maximum dimensionless temperature difference between hot and cold sections of the pipe inner wall which causes thermal stratification was reduced from 0.514 to 0.424 at dimensionless time 1, 632 and 1, 500 respectively.

  • This paper describes energy loss in a pipe line of refuse collecting system. Analysis of energy loss in a pipe line is the decisive factor in a design of refuse collecting system. Using the results of energy loss analysis, we can determine the power of turbo-blower. The flow characteristics of the pipe line with refuse bags were analyzed by three-dimensional CFD. The refuse bag is modeled by using the shape obtained from profile measurement. Friction factors were calculated with changing the refuse bag size, mixing ratio and Reynolds number. And drag coefficients were calculated using the CFD results. From the results we can calculate energy loss in a pipe line of refuse collecting system and predict the capacity of turbo-blower.

  • Line-laser beams are used for depth measurement of welding beads along the circumference of a pipe. For this, first we project a line-laser beam on an rotating pipe and take a sequence of images of the beam projected on the pipe using a CCD camera. Second, the projected line laser beam in each image is detected, converted into a thin curve. Finally measure the distance between the thinned curve and an imaginary line. When a line-laser beam is projected to a rough metal surface such as arc welding beads, the beam is severely scattered. This severe scattering makes the thinned curve perturbed. In this paper, we propose a thinning method robust against scattering of line lasers. First, we extract a projected line laser beam region using an adaptive threshold. Second, we model a thinned curve with a spline curve with control points. Next, we adjust the control points to fit the curve to the projected line-laser beam. Finally, we take a weighted mean of thin curves on a sequence of image frames. Experiments shows that the proposed thinning method results in a thinning curve, which is smooth and fit to the projected line-laser beam with small error.

  • This experiment was carried out to compare soil moisture contents and the amounts of irrigation water by varying irrigating methods for chinese cabbages. The irrigating methods were non-irrigation (Plot A), furrow irrigation(Plot B). fixed nozzle pipe irrigation(Plot C), subsoil pipeline irrigation at the depths of 15cm. and 30cm., laying out in the middle of the rows of chinese cabbages(Plot D) and subsoil pipeline irrigation at the depths of 15cm, and 30cm., laying out beneath the rows of the roots of chinese cabbages(Plot E). In this experiment soil moisture contents were measured by using a simple electric device. As a result, the fallowing items are derived; 1) A significionce of 5% was observed between the yields produced at the furrow irrigation plot and fixed nozzle pipe irrigation plot, and those at the non-irrigation plot and subsoil pipe-line irrigation plot. 2) In the subsoil pipe-line irrgatiion, the Plot D type was observed to be slightly better than the Plot E type in the effect of the growth of cabbages. 3) The ratio of the amounts of irrigation water applied in the furrow irrigation plot, fixed nozzle pipe irrigation plot and subsoil pipe-line irrigation plot is approximately 3.2:2.1.
