  • 두부 CT 검사에서 눈의 수정체는 높은 방사선 감수성으로 보호되어야 할 장기 중에 하나이다. 두부 CT 검사에서 눈의 피폭선량감소 목적으로 사용되는 비스무스 차폐체는 현저한 선량 감소 효과가 있지만 화질저하의 문제점이 있다. 본 연구는 인체팬텀을 이용한 두부 CT 검사에서 피폭 선량을 줄이기 위해 사용되는 관전류변조기법인 new organ based-tube current modulation, longitudinal-TCM, angular-TCM과 차폐기법인 비스무스, 납 안경을 사용하여 눈의 선량과 화질의 변화 정도를 평가하였다. 연구결과, new OB-TCM에서 눈의 선량은 25.88% 감소되었으며 비스무스를 사용한 검사와 비교하여 CT number, 노이즈, SNR의 변화가 작은 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 new OB-TCM을 임상의 두부 CT 검사에 적용할 경우, 눈의 피폭선량을 감소시키면서 영상의 화질 저하를 방지할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • This paper presents a non-destructive evaluation study on a radiator with cooling fins as a complex shaped specimen. Radiator structures are used in various heat exchangers, such as automobiles, air conditioners and refrigerators. An eddy current testing method, namely multi-frequency excitation and spectrogram method (MFES), was employed to detect a defect on the radiator tube surrounded by cooling fins. Overall, experimental results suggested that the influence of cooling fin is not as noticeable as that of the defect signals.

  • Thermoacoustic oscillation induced by a heater in a tube with air current is studied theoretically. Linearized perturbation equations are derived in dimensionless form under the assumption that the system is one dimensional. The equation to predict the acoustic power generation from a heating surface is derived and calculated by solving differential equations numerically. The effect of the mean velocity of the air current is illustrated. The energy conversion mechanism is shown by pressure-volume diagram like a heat engine.

  • A new method for injecting cooling water into the Korean research reactor (KRR) in the event of beam tube rupture is proposed in this paper. Moreover, the research evaluates the risk to the reactor core in terms of core damage frequency (CDF). The proposed method maintains the cooling water in the chimney at a certain level in the tank to prevent nuclear fuel damage solely by gravitational coolant feeding from the emergency water supply system (EWSS). This technique does not require sump recirculation operations described in the current procedure for resolving beam tube accidents. The reduction in the risk to the core in the event of beam tube rupture that can be achieved by the proposed change in the cooling water injection design is quantified as follows. 1) The total CDF of the KRR for the proposed design change is approximately 4.17E-06/yr, which is 8.4% lower than the CDF of the current design (4.55E-06/yr). 2) The CDF for beam tube rupture is 7.10E-08/yr, which represents an 84.1% decrease compared with that of the current design (4.49E-07/yr). In addition to this quantitative reduction in risk, the modified cooling water injection design maintains a supply of pure coolant to the EWSS tank. This means that the reactor does not require decontamination after an accident. Thermal hydraulic analysis proves that the water level in the reactor pool does not cause damage to the nuclear fuel cladding after beam tube rupture. This is because the amount of water in the chimney can be regulated by the EWSS function. The EWSS supplies emergency water to the reactor core to compensate for the evaporation of coolant in the core, thus allowing water to cover the fuel assemblies in the reactor core over a sufficient amount of time.

  • When a shock wave arrives at an open end of tube, an impulse wave is discharged from the tube exit and causes serious noise and vibration problems. In the current study, the effect of the cross-sectional area of tube on the impulse wave is numerically investigated using a CFD method. The Harten-Yee's total variation diminishing(TVD) scheme is used to solve the axisymmetric, two-dimensional, unsteady, compressible Euler equations. With three different cross-sectional areas of tube, the Mach number of the incident shock wave $M_{s}$ is varied between 1.01 and 1.5. The results obtained show that the directivity and magnitude of impulse wave strongly depend upon the Mach number of incident shock wave and are influenced by the tube area. It is also known that the tube cross-sectional area significantly affects the magnitude of impulse wave at or near the tube axis.

  • 본 연구에서는 자동노출제어장치(automatic exposure control, AEC)의 채광창 차폐정도와 농도, 감도가 관전류량과 영상품질에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 실험에 사용된 장비는 X선관과 간접방식의 디지털검출기가 일체형인 디지털방사선발생장치(Digital Diagnost, Philips, Netherlands)를 사용하였다. 채광창 차폐정도는 3 mm 두께의 납을 이용하여 0%부터 100%까지 12.5%씩 순차적으로 누적 차폐하여 9단계로 구분하였다. 농도는 제조사에서 제시한 3단계(+2.5, 0, -2.5)와 감도 3단계(S200, S400, S800)를 대상으로 하였다. 관전류량 평가는 관전압을 40 kVp로 고정하고 AEC 조절인자들이 교차한 81가지의 조합조건에서 자동 노출된 관전류량을 측정하였다. 영상품질평가는 자체 제작한 원뿔형 피라미드 팬텀의 방사선영상을 육안 평가하여 유효한 영상을 선발하였고 이들의 신호 대 잡음비(signal to noise ratio, SNR)을 측정하였다. 그 결과 관전류량은 채광창 차폐정도가 100%, 감도 S200, 농도 2.5일 때 60.0 mAs로 가장 많이 조사되었으며, 채광창 차폐정도가 0%, 감도 S800, 농도 -2.5일 때 0.9 mAs로 가장 적게 조사되었다. SNR은 채광창 차폐정도가 0%, 감도 S200, 농도 2.5일 때 25.2로 가장 우수하였고, 채광창 차폐정도가 25%, 감도 S800, 농도 -2.5일 때 SNR이 4.7로 가장 낮았다.

  • $SrSO_4$ were systematically added on Bi2212 from 0 to 10wt% to study the effect of Bi2212 superconductor tube characteristics. After mixing, the melted solution of Bi2212 and $SrSO_4$ was initially poured into the cylinder type of steel mold preheated at $550^{\circ}C$ for 30min and rotated at 1000rpm. Following that, tube was annealed at $840^{\circ}C$ for 72hrs. The tube dimension was 60 in diameter, 60mm in length and 2mm in thickness. XRD data suggests that there was no typical segregation phase related with $SrSO_4$. Well textured grain with typical 2212 phase was observed and average size was $20{\mu}m$. The measured critical current and critical current density of Bi2212 tube added by 5% $SrSO_4$ at 77K were 495A and $202A/cm^2$ respectively.

  • To evaluate the current practices of the tube feeding and the status of tube feeding patient 76 adult in-patients at 6 hospitals located in Seoul and Chung-buk province were examined through reviewing patient charts observing patients and interviewing patients nurses dietitians patients' family or care-givers. The results were as follows : 1) An average age of the patients was 54.5 years with 41% over 60 years old. Patients with decreased mental status dysphagia esophageal obstruction and respiratory problem were fed by tubes. 2) The range of duration of tube feeding is between 4 days and 6 years. Most patients were received formula through nasogastric tube(89.5%) while 7.9% of gastrostomy and 2.6% of jejunostomy. Administration method for formula were bolus feeding regardless of the route of formula delivery. 3) Mean total calories received for men were 1590 kcal and 1450 kcal for female. Mean volume per meal was 282m, l and mean frequency of feeding was 5.68 while mean feeding interval 3$\frac{1}{4}$ hours and mean rate of infusion 68.4ml/min. All patients received hospital-blenderi-zed formula as the major source of nutrition. Home-blenderized formula and commercial formula as a supplement were used 35%, 13.2% respectively. 4) Thirty-eight percent of patients was hypoalbuminemia and 61% was at the moderate level of deficiency in hemoglobin. 5) Complications associated with tube feeding were diarrhea (22.4%) constipation(21.1%) vomiting(11.8%) and so on. 6) Serum albumin levels of patients who have complications associated with tube feeding were significantly lower than those of patients without complications In planning a tube feeding regimen the type of a formula must be integrated with both a delivery system and a protocol for administering the tube feeding. the multidisciplinary effort required to deliver enteral therapy is essential to improve current practices used at hospitals.
