The determination of response characteristics for pressure sensors is routinely limited to static calibration against a deadweight pressure standard. The strength of this method is that the deadweight device is a primary standard used to generate precise pressure. Its weakness lies in the assumption that the static and dynamic responses of the sensor in question are equivalent. Differences in sensor response to static and dynamic events, however, can lead to serious measurement errors. Dynamic techniques are required to calibrate pressure sensors measuring dynamic events in milliseconds. In this paper, a dynamic calibration using negative going dynamic pressure is proposed to determine dynamic pressure response for piezoelectric sensors. Sensitivity and linearity of sensor by the dynamic calibration were compared with those by the static calibration. The uncertainty of calibration results and the goodness of fit test of linear regression analysis were presented. The results show that the dynamic calibration is applicable to determine dynamic pressure response for piezoelectric sensors.

As for an oil hydraulic vane pump of vehicle hydraulic systems, the highest of planning technique required by the acquisition of optimum profile data which can be available to predict noises and vibrations. Pressure pulsation may result in considerable vibration and noise of pump component as well as cavitation in hydraulic system. The influences of the discharge pressure and rotating speed of the vane on the dynamic pressure in chamber surrounding a vane have been investigated. It is very important to predict pressure pulsation in vane pump. This paper presents analysis of technique of vane pump for automatic transmission. The predicted result using AMESim model were good agreement with the experimentally obtained results.

The characteristics of nine existing condensation frictional pressure drop correlations for microfin tubes were evaluated with geometries, vapor quality, mass flux, and refrigerants. The $M\ddot{u}ller-Steinhagen$ and Heck [17] smooth tube frictional pressure drop correlation was utilized to evaluate the pressure drop penalty factor (PF). Except the Nozu et al. [2], the Kedzierski and Goncalves [3], the Choi et al. [10], and the Cavallini et al. [7], other pressure drop correlations did not consider the effect of tube geometry. The prediction values for R407C by pressure drop correlations show discrepancy with previous researcher's experimental trend. Additional efforts on the development of reliable condensation pressure drop correlation for microfin tubes are still required with the systematic investigation of various effects like geometries and working conditions.

Hydrogen, the lightest and the most abundant element in the universe becomes a mainstay of contemporary condensed matter physics, which is largely because its metallization is regarded as the holy grail of high-pressure physics and it is also due to recent observations of high Tc superconductivity in hydrogen-dense compounds at extremely high pressure. Contemporary static high-pressure technique is not enough to realize the metallization of solid hydrogen and hydrogen-dense compounds may significantly reduce the required transition pressure providing an excellent proxy study. In this brief review, I will introduce recent achievements of high-pressure study in solid hydrogen and hydrides.

In this study, a circular pipe can be installed by suction pressure for construction on soft ground with a low-water level. A series of laboratory-scale model tests were conducted in sandy ground to comprehend the suction pressure of the circular pipe in low-water levels. For repeated tests on saturated sandy soil, a container was mounted with three vibration generators on the floor. A repetitive vibration was applied using the vibration system for ground compaction. In the model tests, different diameters and thicknesses on saturated sandy soil with a water depth were considered. The result showed that the suction pressure increased with increasing penetration depth of the circular pipe. Moreover, the suction pressure required to penetrate the pipe decreased with increasing diameter. In the low-water level, the total suction pressure measured at the top lid increased because additional suction pressure is required to lift the water column. On the other hand, this led to a decrease in suction pressure to penetrate the circular pipe because the weight of the water column is applied as a dead load. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the water level to design the required suction pressure accurately.

Chemical decontamination of primary systems in a nuclear power plant (NPP) prior to commencing the main decommissioning activities is required to reduce radiation exposure during its process. The entire process is repeated until the desired decontamination factor is obtained. To achieve improved decontamination factors over a shorter time with fewer cycles, the appropriate flow characteristics are required. In addition, to prepare an operating procedure that is adaptable to various conditions and situations, the transient analysis results would be required for operator action and system impact assessment. In this study, the flow characteristics in the steady-state and transient conditions for the chemical decontamination operations of the Kori-1 NPP were analyzed and compared via the MARS-KS code simulation. Loss of residual heat removal (RHR) and steam generator tube rupture (SGTR) simulations were conducted for the postulated abnormal events. Loss of RHR results showed the reactor coolant system (RCS) temperature increase, which can damage the reactor coolant pump (RCP)s by its cavitation. The SGTR results indicated a void formation in the RCS interior by the decrease in pressurizer (PZR) pressure, which can cause surface exposure and tripping of the RCPs unless proper actions are taken before the required pressure limit is achieved.

In this paper, a theoretical analysis is carried out to study the effect of viscosity variation with pressure in multiply grooved moving hydraulic spool valves. Analytical expressions for pressure distribution in the clearance and leakage flowrate are obtained solving one-dimensional Reynolds. For constant viscosity, an analytical expression for lateral force is also presented. The results showed that variation of viscosity with pressure affect highly on pressure distribution, leakage flowrate and lateral forces in hydraulic spool valves. Therefore additional intensive studies, including numerical analysis for two-dimensional Reynolds, should be required to investigate detailed lubrication characteristics of spool valves for high pressure.

Experimental studies on the characteristics of annular jet pump were carried out in this paper. Jet pump can be used widely for the transportation of solid materials, farm produce and fishes. The effects of high pressure chamber on the characteristics of annular jet pump were sought in this paper. Experiments were done for three shapes of high pressure chamber, and for several lengths of the high pressure chamber. Three types of the high pressure chamber's entrances($90^{\circ}$ single inflow, $45^{\circ}$single inflow, and $45^{\circ}$ double inflow) were tested. Water was used for both the primary fluid and secondary fluid. The results obtained in this study are as follows; $45^{\circ}$double inflow type is the most effective among the tested three types of the high pressure chamber's entrances. The efficiency of jet pump with 400mm of high pressure chamber length is the highest among the chamber lengths tested in this study, thus indicating appropriate chamber length is required to get an efficient.

This paper reports the fabrication and characterization of surface micromachined poly 3C-SiC capacitive pressure sensors on silicon wafer operable in touch mode and normal mode for high temperature applications. FEM(finite elements method) simulation has been performed to verify the analytical mode. The sensing capacitor of the capacitive pressure sensor is composed of the upper metal and the poly 3C-SiC layer. Measurements have been performed in a temperature range from $25^{\circ}C$ to $500^{\circ}C$. Fabrication process of designed poly 3C-SiC touch mode capacitive pressure sensor was optimized and would be applicable to capacitive pressure sensors that are required high precision and sensitivity at high pressure and temperature.
