This paper presents an experimental study on the discharge head of Cherepnov water lifter that was continuously operated with the aid of the siphon. The energy used by the Cherepnov water lifter is derived from the potential energy ofthe water itself. The lifter consists of three interconnected tanks and five pipes, one of which is open and two others are hermetically sealed. The effects of varying operating parameters such as the tank and pipe size, the ratio between head of discharge and drop height were analyzed. As a result, factors that can maximize the efficiency and increase the average delivery rate were indentified. When the ratio between head of discharge and drop height is about 0.5, the efficiency of Cherepnov water lifter is maximized. In order to design the efficient Cherepnov water lifter, the discharge head of the Cherepnov water lifter should be assigned to be twice as much as the drop height. The effect of tank size on the efficiency is less than 5%, while the effect of the pipe size is not negligible. The larger the pipe size is, the more the efficiency increases.

When water shortage has been getting worse recently, toilet water-saving is one of the most effective way to solve the water shortage. Therefore, in this study, toilet flushing performance was investigated with VOF(Volume Of Fluid) model to obtain the basic design data for the development of high-efficiency toilets. The result showed that the shorter trapway, the longer the flushing duration time. However, the shorter trapway is found to have disadvantage in exhausting dirt due to relatively weak siphon and higher curvature. Since the remaining water in a trapway appears to help siphon, it is also an important factor in developing high-efficiency toilets. Although higher water level in the water tank shows better performance in flushing, lower water level is preferred to save water. Too low water level may cause dirt to clog the trapway due to relatively weak siphon.

Since a deadlock is a condition in which the excessive demand for the resources being used by others causes activities to stop, it is very important to detect and prevent a deadlock. About the deadlock detection analysis methods are may divide like as Siphon, DAPN and transitive matrix, but it's very difficult to evaluate the performance. Since DES (Discrete Event Systems) is NP-hard, and these detection and avoidance methods used various factors in each technique, it's made difficult to compare with each other's. In this paper, we are benchmarked these deadlock detection analyze methods based on the complexity, the detection time and the understanding after approached to one example.

The new watering system for the cabinet type of soybean sprouting equipment was developed. It was made of one siphon $({\Phi}35 mm)$, one well bucket $(13{\times}10{\times}10\;cm)$ that its weight-center is changed by water level, and bottle-neck water tank (bottom: $18.5^W{\times}32^L{\times}29^H\;cm$, top: $14^W{\times}14^L{\times}25^H\;cm)$. The watering system can be automatically watered more than 750 mL/sec without electric supply. The soybean sprouting equipment is consisted of the watering system and nine sprouting buckets. In addition siphon phenomena brought about easily by narrowing same as bottle-neck shape top portion of water tank that inserted a siphon. The equipment with the watering system may be produced more than three box a day in the condition of $25{\pm}1^{\circ}C$, and $6{\sim}7$ watering times a day.

This paper presents the dynamic excitation control of a siphon-turbine coupled pico-hydro powered cage rotor induction generator and load matching for off-grid electricity generation. Through the proposed dual-role of the current-controlled voltage source converter (VSC), acting as static synchronous compensator and load controller, real and reactive power are dynamically controlled in a decoupled manner with a self supported DC-bus. The proposed scheme entails minimal computation for ensuring the rated (set) capacity of real power. The scheme also exhibits fault immunity for protection, thus enabling the effective handling of constant power electrical loads presented by base telecom station towers in remote locations. The performance of the system is evaluated under MATLAB/Simulink and is experimented through a developed hardware prototype. Simulation and experimental results show close conformity and validate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

Petri net is an effective modeling tool for concurrent systems. Liveness problem is one of analysis problems in Petri net theory verifying whether the system is free from any local deadlocks. It is well known that computational complexity of liveness problem of general Petri net is deterministic exponential space. Some subclasses, such as marked graph and free choice net, are suggested where liveness problem is verified in less complexity. This paper studies liveness of siphon containing circuit (SCC) net. Liveness condition based on algebraic inequalities is shown. Then polynomial time decidability of liveness of SCC net is derived, if the given net is known to be an SCC net a priori.

1. Purpose We inquire into difference of blood flow velocity according Sasang Constitution. 2. Method We selected observation group that they are 251 patients among of the patients who are had a medical early examination of stroke. We classified observation group by Sasang Constitution and compared each of measured blood flow velocity by TCD. 3. Result 1) We found out that Taeumin is highest in fat rate, height and blood pressure. 2) Blood flow mean velocity of MCA is not found out significant difference by Sasang Constitution. But, Taeumin is found out highest in left and right. 3) Taeumin is found out that blood flow velocity of Siphon sinus ICA is highest.

The standard weighing raingauges have a capacity limit in measuring the amounts of precipitation. Exceptions are those using a siphon to drain the collected water during observations. To reduce the drain time of the siphon type or to overcome the hassles associated with the manual emptying of the bucket for measuring, the most of weighing gauges use a large bucket for storing of rainwater to be measured. To avoid the above-mentioned adverse requirements, we propose a paired barrel for a weighing raingauge. The paired barrel may improve the accuracy of the weighing raingauges by getting rid of their capacity limit and make the gauges smaller in size and lighter in weight than the conventional ones. We showed its proper function and the feasibility of realization by testing a prototype paired barrel.

Two colonial ascidians, Eudistoma glaucum and Eudistoma purpureum, are reported for the first time in Korean waters through taxonomic study on ascidians collected from a subtidal zone of Jejudo Island. Eudistoma glaucum is distinguished by opaque green color of colony in living, massive colony with large corona, smooth surface of corona, sparse sand only at the peduncle, zooids in circle, about 8-10 stigmata of 3 stigmata rows and test process. Eudistoma purpureum is distinguished by brilliant, opaque, purple color of colony in living, less lobed colony form, smooth shiny surface, sparse sand only at the basal test, absence of symbionts, zooids in circle, no distinct bulging sphincter in siphon, long atrial siphon and about 20 stigmata of 3 stigmata rows. As a result of this study, four species of the genus Eudistoma are now recorded in Korean fauna.
