A hexagonally arrayed 37-pin wire-wrapped rod bundle has been chosen to provide the experimental data of the pressure loss and flow rate in subchannels for validating subchannel analysis codes for the sodium-cooled fast reactor core thermal/hydraulic design. The iso-kinetic sampling method has been adopted to measure the flow rate at subchannels, and newly designed sampling probes which preserve the flow area of subchannels have been devised. Experimental tests have been performed at 20-115% of the nominal flow rate and $60^{\circ}C$ (equivalent to Re ~ 37,100) at the inlet of the test rig. The pressure loss data in three measured subchannels were almost identical regardless of the subchannel locations. The flow rate at each type of subchannel was identified and the flow split factors were evaluated from the measured data. The predicted correlations and the computational fluid dynamics results agreed reasonably with the experimental data.

Cooking oil in kitchen-fog is the most harmful factor to the health of a cook. The proposed filter is a tool that protects the cooked state, to prevent users from inhaling oil mist in the kitchen. Due to efficiency issues, existing filters are of the mesh type or baffle type. In this paper, CFD analysis is carried out to select a filter with low pressure loss and low efficiency, and to attach the sub-filter to improve efficiency. The results of the analysis on the collection efficiency and pressure loss of three sub-filters, i.e., circle type, droplet type, and cone type, showed that the collection efficiency was 64.09% and the pressure loss was 1.26 mmAq when the circle type sub-filter was applied. The position of the sub-filter showed the best efficiency and pressure loss when it was located at the bottom of the center of the gap of the main filter.

Optimal design of shell and tube heat exchanger system with the working fluids which may condense outside the tubes has been carried out under specified inlet and outlet conditions. Independent variables such as number of parallel series, tube diameter, distribution pitch, tube side pressure loss, baffle cut and shell side pressure loss as well as dependent variables such as shell diameter, number of tubes, number of serial series and number of baffles were all characterized according to the standard. Exhaustive search method was used to construct a computer program together with the calculation of heat transfer rate by LMTD method. stress analysis of maj or parts was made to examine their dimensions satisfying heat transfer and pressure loss requirements. Cost estimation based on the installation, operation and maintenance was also made, A few representative variables, heat transfer area, shell diameter and pressure loss, were used to express cost function, finally giving the optimal selection of all tentative solutions.

The increase in the rearing intensity of pigs has caused deterioration in the pig house's internal environment such as temperature, humidity, ammonia gas, and so on. Traditionally, the widely used method to control the internal environment was through the manipulation of the ventilation system. However, the conventional ventilation system had a limitation to control the internal environment, prevent livestock disease, save energy, and reduce odor emission. To overcome this problem, the air-recirculated ventilation system was suggested. This system has a semi-closed loop ventilation type. For designing this system, it was essential to evaluate the ventilation rates considering the pressure loss of ducts. Therefore, in this study, pressure loss calculation and experiment were conducted for the quantitative ventilation design of a semi-closed loop system. The results of the experiment showed that the inlet through which external air flows should always be opened. In addition, it was also found that for the optimum design of the semi-closed loop ventilation system, it was appropriate to install a damper or a backflow prevention device rather than a ventilation fan.

In this study, the first law of thermodynamics was used to establish a one-dimensional (1-D) thermal model for parabolic trough receiver (PTR) taking into account the pressure drop and kinetic energy loss effects of the heat transfer fluid (HTF) flowing inside the absorber tube. The validation of the thermal model with data from the SEGS-LS2 solar collector-test showed a good agreement, which is consistent with the previously established models for the conventional straight and smooth (CSS) receiver where the effects of pressure drop and kinetic energy loss were neglected. Based on the developed model and code, a comparative study of the newly designed parabolic trough S-curved receiver versus the CSS receiver was conducted and solar unit's performances were analyzed. Without any supplementary devices, the S-curved receiver enhances the performance of the parabolic trough module, with a maximum of 0.16% compared to CSS receiver with the same sizes and mass flow rates. Thermal losses were reduced by 7% due to the decrease in the temperature of the outer surface of the receiver tube. In addition, it has been shown that from a mass flow rate of 9.5 kg/s the heat losses of the S-curved receiver remain unchanged despite the improvement in the heat transfer rate.

3열 정렬형 관군 배열에서 3열의 'common flow up'과 'common flow down' 형상의 와류발생기를 부착하여 와류발생기에 의한 열전달 촉진과 압력강하를 비교하였다 선행 연구자들이 제안한 'common flow down' 형상의 와류발생기는 와류발생기가 없는 휜-관군에 비해 열전달 촉진은 $10\%{\~}25\%$ 향상되었고, 압력강하는 $20\%{\~}35\%$ 증가하였다. 'common flow up' 형상의 와류발생기의 경우 후연 수평거리(${\Delta}y$)를 변화시키면서 평가하였다. 와류발생기는 삼각형과 사각형 형상을 적용하였다. 후연 수평거리(${\Delta}y$)가 5mm이고 삼각형의 'common flow up' 형상의 와류발생기가 정렬형 관군에서 설치될 때 Reynolds수(유로 높이의 배를 기준으로)가 $300{\~}2700$ 범위에서 열전달촉진은 10까지 향상하였고, 동시에 압력강하는 $8\%{\~}15\%$ 감소하였다. 삼각형 와류발생기가 부착된 휜-관군의 성능이 상대적으로 작은 압력강하 때문에 사각형 와류발생기가 부착된 휜-관군의 성능보다 좋게 나타났다.

본 연구의 목적은 해수 흡입구를 고려한 초공동 수중운동체 캐비테이터의 항력과 양력특성 및 해수 흡입유로의 입구에서 압력손실에 대해 예측하는 것이다. 흡입구 직경과 유로에서의 속도, 흡입구의 곡률반경 및 캐비테이터의 받음각이 미치는 영향에 대해 유동해석을 수행하였다. 연구 결과 직경비가 커지면, 항력계수와 압력손실계수가 감소하며, 속도비가 증가할 때 항력계수와 양력계수는 감소하고 압력손실계수는 증가한다. 해수 흡입구에 곡률을 주면 항력계수와 양력계수에는 영향을 미치지 않지만, 압력손실계수가 크게 감소한다. 캐비테이터의 받음각은 항력계수와 압력손실계수에 미소한 영향만을 주나, 양력계수를 크게 변화시킨다. 초공동 수중운동체 설계 시 본 연구 결과를 반영할 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 화재현장에서 사용하는 소방호스에 대하여 사용압력과 방수량 변화에 따른 마찰손실을 실측하였다. 소방호스의 종류, 수량, 사용압력 등 소방호스의 사용 실태를 분석하여 그 결과를 토대로 실측한 결과 화재현장에서 소방공무원이 사용하는 조건에서 소방호스의 마찰손실은 무려 56.8%까지 측정되었다. 옥내 외 소화전설비에서 펌프양정 계산시 사용하는 소방호스의 등가 길이와도 많은 차이가 난다. 관련규정조차 마찰손실에 대한 제한 규정이 없고, 소방호스를 생산하는 업체에서도 마찰손실을 측정한 자료가 없으며, 화재현장에서는 마찰손실을 고려하지 않고 소방호스를 전개함으로써 호스의 사용량이 많아지고 소방펌프차에서 고압으로 방수하게 되는 원인이 되므로 본 연구를 통하여 소방호스 마찰손실에 대한 등가길이 기준을 정립하고 화재현장에서 소방호스의 마찰손실을 고려한 전개 방법을 제안하고자 한다.

This paper is an investigation of the performance of absorption diffusers to suppress the vent noise emitted when high pressure gas is throttled. First, experiment for the static performance is carried out. When there is no through-flow, the insertion loss has been obtained in terms of 1/3 octave band spectrum and the effect of the number of diffusers and the thickness of the absorption material on the static performance has been obtained. And the similarity in the spectrum of the static insertion loss is confirmed by comparing two similar models with different size. Second, the dynamic performance has been obtained by experiment using blow-down of compressed air from a storage tank through an orifice of diameter 10 mm. The back pressure by the diffuser is measured and compared with that of a single diffuser. It is found that the insertion loss of asingle diffuser is very low around 3 dB at high frequencies with negative value at low frequencies. By absorption material between the diffuser tubes, however, the performance is increased considerably. Without flow the static insertion loss increases by 3 - 4 dB by doubling the thickness or the density of the absorptionmaterial. With flow, however, the dynamic insertion loss increases. While, the back pressure by the diffuser is small enough to be neglected.

An experimental investigation of the stenosis effects on the pressure drop and flow change in the internal flow is presented. Stainless steel tubes of small diameter(3.175mm, 3.4mm) are used for the test section of the flow loop. Percent contraction ranges from 35% to 83% and the stenosis length ratio (L/d) is varied from 2.8 to 8. Water and aqueous glycerol solutions are used for Newtonian fluids and polymer solutions of Separan AP-273 (500 wppm, 1000 wppm) for non-Newtonian fluids. Pressure loss coefficients of non-Newtonian fluids decrease just as those of Newtonian fluids. The loss coefficients of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids increase as the percent contraction increases and the loss coefficients of non-Newtonian fluids are larger than those of Newtonian fluids for the same stenosed tube. The loss coefficient increases as the stenosis length ratio increases.
