Flow characteristics of synthetic jet based flow supplying devices have been computationally investigated for different device shapes. Jet momentum was produced by the volume change of a cavity by two piezoelectric-driven diaphragms. The devices have additional flow path compared with the original synthetic jet actuator, and these flow path changes the flow characteristics of synthetic jet actuator. Four non-dimensional parameters, which were functions of the shapes of the additional flow path, were considered as the most critical parameters in jet performance. Comparative studies were conducted to compare volume flow rate and jet velocity. Computed results were solved by 2-D incompressible Navier-Stokes solver with k-w SST turbulence model. Detailed computations revealed that the additional flow path diminishes suction strength of the synthetic jet actuator. In addition, the cross section area of the flow path has more influence over the jet performances than the length of the flow path. Based on the computational results, the synthetic jet based flow supplying devices could be improved by applying suitable shape of the flow path.

응급상황에서 중환자에게 시행되는 인공호흡 과정 중 호흡기류를 측정할 수 있도록 개발된 센서의 계측 정확도를 평가하였다. 호흡기류 센서의 압력-기류 특성식을 산출하였으며, 인공호흡시에 인가되는 호흡기류신호와 유사한 6가지 파형을 표준기류생성시스템으로 생성하여 호흡기류 센서에 가하면서 기류신호를 측정하였다. 이 기류신호로부터 일회호흡용적과 최대기류값을 산출하였으며, 이를 표준기류생성시스템에 부착되어 있고 물리적으로 오차가 없는 선형변위센서로부터 측정한 용적신호에서 산출한 표준값과 비교하였다. 일회호흡용적의 상대오차는 3% 이내이었으며, 최대기류값은 약 5% 정도로서 충분히 정확한 기류 계측이 가능함을 확인하였다. 따라서 실제 응급상황에서 호흡기류 센서로 적용하여 응급 중환자의 호흡신호와 호흡주기별 진단변수들을 실시간으로 모니터링 할 수 있는 시스템에 활용 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

The effects of radial heat and $H_2O$ diffusion on the evolution of silica particles in coflow diffusion flames have been studied experimentally. The evolution of silica aggregate particles in coflow diffusion flames has been measured experimentally using light scattering and thermophoretic sampling techniques. The measurements of scattering cross section from $90^{\circ}$ light scattering have been utilized to calculate the aggregate number density and volume fraction using with combination of measuring the particle size and morphology through the localized sampling and a TEM image analysis. Aggregate or particle number densities and volume fractions were calculated using Rayleigh-Debye-Gans and Mie theory for fractal aggregates and spherical particles, respectively. Flame temperatures and volumetric differential scattering cross sections have been measured for different flame conditions such as inert gas species, $H_2$ flow rates, and burner injection configurations to examine the relation between the formation of particles and radial $H_2O$ diffusion. The comparisons of oxidation and flame hydrolysis have also been made for various $H_2$ flow rates using $N_2$ or $O_2$ as a carrier gas. Results indicate that the role of oxidation becomes dominant as both carrier gas($O_2$) and $H_2$ flow rates increases since the radial heat diffusion precedes $H_2O$ diffusion in coflow flames used in this study. The effect of carrier gas flow rates on the evolution of silica particles have also been studied. When using $N_2$ as a carrier gas, the particle volume fraction has a maximum at a certain carrier gas flow rate and as the flow rate is further increased, the hydrolysis reaction Is delayed and the spherical particles finally evolves into fractal aggregates due to decreased flame temperature and residence time.

Many commercial air purifiers currently have deployed granular activated carbon (GAC) filters for removing volatile organic compounds in the indoor air. GACs are generally used to remove gaseous contaminants in the air through adsorption by the inner surfaces of pores. In addition, airborne particles can be also filtered by the surface adsorption of the GACs, which can improve the life-time of the particulate filters. In this study, the filtration efficiency of GACs to ultrafine particles through surface adsorption was investigated at different volume flow rates by deploying a continuous particle filtration system. The polydisperse sodium chloride (NaCl) particles were generated by a set of an atomizer and a diffusion dryer, and then mixed with particle-free air at different volume flow rates. The penetration of ultrafine particles and pressure drop for each experimental condition were measured to figure out the effect of the volume flow rate on the surface adsoprtion of the GACs to particles, ~ 2 mm. The particle filtration efficiency of the GACs decreased as the volume flow rate increased from 4 to 14 lpm. However, the 5 times thicker GAC filter layer decreased the penetration of ultraparticles than a preious study. The filtration efficiency of the single granule was also higher than the previous result in the literature with smaller granule filter materials.

Yield monitoring systems have become integral to precision agriculture, providing insights into the spatial variability of crop yield and playing an important role in modern harvesting technology. This paper aims to review current research trends in yield monitoring systems, specifically designed for non-grain crops, including cabbages, radishes, potatoes, and tomatoes. A systematic literature survey was conducted to evaluate the performance of various monitoring methods for non-grain crop yields. This study also assesses both mass- and volume-based yield monitoring systems to provide precise evaluations of agricultural productivity. Integrating load cell technology enables precise mass flow rate measurements and cumulative weighing, offering an accurate representation of crop yields, and the incorporation of image-based analysis enhances the overall system accuracy by facilitating volumetric flow rate calculations and refined volume estimations. Mass flow methods, including weighing, force impact, and radiometric approaches, have demonstrated impressive results, with some measurement error levels below 5%. Volume flow methods, including paddle wheel and optical methodologies, yielded error levels below 3%. Signal processing and correction measures also play a crucial role in achieving accurate yield estimations. Moreover, the selection of sensing approach, sensor layout, and mounting significantly influence the performance of monitoring systems for specific crops.

PURPOSES : Two-lane highways have one lane in each direction, and lane changing and passing maneuvers take place in the opposing lane depending on the availability of passing sight distance. 2001 Korea Highway Capacity Manual (KHCM) is classified into two classes of two-lane highways (Type I, II), and average travel speed and time-delayed rate are used as measures of effectiveness (MOEs). However, since existing two-lane highways have both uninterrupted and interrupted traffic flow-system elements, a variety of free-flow speeds exhibits in two-lane highways. In addition, it is necessary to check if the linear-relationship between volumes and time-delayed rate is appropriate. Then, this study is to reestablish the relationship between average travel speed, time-delayed rate, and flow. METHODS : TWOPAS model was selected to conduct this study, and the free-flow speeds of passenger cars and the percentage of following vehicles observed in two-lane highways were applied to the model as the input. The revised relationships were developed from the computer simulation. RESULTS : In the revised average travel speed vs. flow relationship, the free-flow speed of 90km/h and 70km/h were added. It shows that the relationship between time delayed-rate and flow appeared to be appropriate with the log-function form and that there was no difference in time-delayed rate between the free flow speeds. In addition to revise the relationships, the speed prediction model and the time-delayed rate prediction model were also developed. CONCLUSIONS : The revised relationships between average travel speed, time-delayed rate, and flow would be useful in estimating the Level of Service(LOS) of a two-lane highway.

Since it has been suggested that atrial receptor may be involved in the mechanism of extracellular volume regulation, it was shown that the granularity of atrial cardiocytes can be changed by water and salt depletion, and that an extract of cardiac atrial tissue, when injected intravenously into anesthetized rats, was shown to cause a large and rapid increase in renal excretion of sodium. Various natriuretic peptides were isolated and synthetized, and the effects were investigated by many workers. Most studies, however, have been carried out under anesthesia and there have teen some controversies over direct effect of the factor on the renal function. Therefore, it was attempted in this study to access the effects of an atrial extract and a synthetic natriuretic factor in unanesthetized rabbits. Intrarenal arterial infusion of atrial extract caused a rapid increase of urinary volume and excretion of sodium. Glomerular filtration rate and renal plasma flow were both increased with no change in filtration fraction. The ventricular extract produced no change in urinary excretion of electrolytes, nor in renal hemodynamics. Intrarenal infusion of synthetic atrial natriuretic factor caused increases of renal excretory rate of sodium, chloride and potassium, and $FE_{Na}$. Glomerular filtration rate, renal plasma flow increased. And free water clearance also increased. Accentuated excretory function correlated well with increased glomerular filtration rate and renal plasma flow during infusion and for 10 minutes following the cessation of the infusion. Renin secretion rate decreased during constant infusion of atrial natriuretic factor. However, no correlation was found with the changes in glomerular filtration rate, renal plasma flow, or urinary excretion of sodium. These results suggest that atrial extract or atrial natriuretic factor induces changes in renal hemodynamics, as in excretion of electrolytes either indirectly through hemodynamic changes or directly by inhibiting tubular reabsorption. At the same time, renin secretory function is affected by the factor possibly through an unknown mechanism.

이 연구의 목적은 Roadmap 영상에서 화질에 영향을 미치는 인자들을 알아보기 위한 것으로, 조영제의 희석률, Collimation Field, Flow Rate를 변화하여 연구를 하였다. 화질의 정량적인 평가를 위해, 아크릴를 이용하여 3mm 혈관모형의 Water Phantom을 자체 제작하였고, 자체 제작한 혈관모형의 Water Phantom으로 Roadmap 영상을 획득하고, SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio)과 CNR(Contrast to Noise Ratio)을 분석하였다. CM : N/S 희석률 변화에 대한 연구에서 CM : N/S 희석률을 (100%~10% : 100%)로 변화를 주었으며, 혈관모형 Water Phantom을 이용하여 촬영한 Roadmap 영상의 SNR과 CNR의 측정 결과 CM에 N/S 희석률이 높아질수록 SNR의 측정값이 점차적으로 낮아짐을 나타났고, CNR의 측정값도 점차적으로 낮아짐을 나타났다. 결론적으로 CM : N/S의 희석률이 높아질수록 SNR과 CNR 낮아짐을 확인하였고, CM : N/S의 희석률(100%~70 : 30%)에서 유의한 이미지를 얻을 수 있음을 확인하였다. Collimation Field 변화에 대한 연구에서 혈관모형 Water Phantom을 이용하여 Colimation Field를 혈관모형 중심으로 좌, 우 2 cm 간격으로 좁히면서 0 cm, 2 cm, 4 cm, 6 cm, 8 cm 10 cm, 12 cm으로 각각 변화를 주었으며, Roadmap을 촬영한 영상의 SNR과 CNR의 측정 결과는 Collimation Field를 혈관모형 중심으로 좁힐수록 SNR과 CNR의 측정값이 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. Flow rate 변화에 대한 연구에서 Autoinjector의 Volume을 15로 일정하게 하고, Flow Rate를 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 으로 각각 변화를 주었다. 혈관모형 Water Phantom을 이용하여 Roadmap 영상을 촬영한 이미지의 SNR과 CNR의 측정 결과 Flow Rate를 증가했을 때, SNR의 측정값이 점차적으로 감소하다가 Flow Rate 9~10에서 SNR의 측정값이 점차적 증가를 보였고, CNR의 측정값도 점차적으로 감소하다가 Flow Rate 9~10에서 CNR의 측정값이 점차적으로 증가를 보였다. 그러나 ROI Mean 값과 Background Mean 값으로 SNR과 CNR의 상관관계를 확인할 수 없었다. 상관관계를 확인하기 위해 Flow Rate 변화에 따른 Roadmap 연구는 향후 더 많은 연구로 확인해야 할 것으로 사료된다. 결론적으로 Roadmap 영상의 화질에 영향을 미치는 인자들을 알아보기 위해 조영제의 희석률, Collimation Field, Flow Rate 변화에 대한 연구에서 조영제에 N/S의 희석률이 증가할수록 SNR과 CNR이 낮아져 화질과 대조도가 낮아지는 것을 확인하였으며, Collimation Field를 좁힐수록 SNR과 CNR이 증가하여 화질과 대조도가 높아지는 것을 확인하였다. 그러나 Flow Rate 변화에 대한 연구에서는 상관관계를 확인할 수 없었다. 검사 및 시술을 할 때 신장의 영향을 최소화하기 위해 적절한 조영제 농도 선택과 대조도 향상 및 피폭 감소를 위한 적절한 Collimation Field를 사용하는 것이 유용할 것으로 판단된다.
