This study describes the performance of PSF and PC membranes for separation and recovery of $SF_6$ from gas mixtures (10% $SF_6$/70% $N_2$/19% $O_2$/1% $CF_4$) containing low concentration of $SF_6$. The $SF_6$ concentration in retentate, recovery efficiency and selectivity of mixed gases were measured as a function of retentate flow rate and temperature. The concentration of $SF_6$ in the gas recovered from PSF and PC membrane respectively decreased with increase of retentate flow rate and increased with increase of temperature. The values of $SF_6$ concentration in retentate of PSF membrane were higher than those of PC membrane at constant experimental conditions. The maximum value of recovery efficiency of PSF and PC membranes are 95.9% and 67.8%, respectively, under 298.15 K and 150 cc/min of retentate flow rate. With the exception of $CF_4/SF_6$, the real selectivities of $N_2/SF_6$ and $O_2/SF_6$ at PSF membrane were higher than those of PC membrane.

Monte Carlo simulation(MC) method was used as an uncertainty assessment tool for gas flow measurement in this paper. Uncertainty sources for gas flow measurement were analyzed, and probability distribution characteristics of each source were discussed. Detailed MC methodology was described including the effect of the number of simulation. The uncertainty result was compared with that of the conventional sensitivity coefficient method, and it was revealed that the results were different from each other for this particular gas flow measurement case of which the modelling equation was nonlinear. The MC was comparatively simple, convenient and accurate as an uncertainty assessment method, especially in cases of complex, nonlinear measurement modelling equations. It was noted that the uncertainty assessment method should be selected carefully according to the mathematical characteristics of the measurement.

A coaxial swirl/shear injector using GCH4/LOx as propellants was degisned and manufactured. Flow analysis by Fluent was performed to decide the number of orifice and the rear shapes of inlet orifice etc. Flow rate of the injector was measured according to differential pressure and uniformity of injector's spray pattern was confirmed by a patternator. The results showed that the difference of flow rate was around 10% and the spray angle of oxidizer was $66^{\circ}$.

반도체 및 디스플레이 산업에 사용되는 진공펌프의 효율이 증대됨에 따른 성능 평가 기술의 향상 과 미세 유량을 조절 및 측정할 수 있는 시스템의 개발이 요구되고 있다. 유량 시스템 중 소닉노즐은 기체 유량 측정 표준기로 사용되고 있다. 또한 유량 측정에 있어서 사용상의 편리성, 이동성, 재현성 등 여러 가지의 장점을 가지고 있어 산업 현장에서 많이 사용되고 있다. 본 연구는 소닉노즐을 넓은 유량 범위에서 사용할 수 있도록 소닉노즐의 유출계수 교정을 목적으로 한다. ISO 9300에서 제시한 사양에 맞추어 목 직경 0.03 mm와 0.2 mm 그리고 1.6 mm의 소닉노즐을 제작하였다. 한국표준과학연구원에서 진공용 유량측정 장치로 개발된 정적형 유량계를 이용하여 제작된 3 종의 소닉노즐 유출계수를 확장불확도 3% 이내로 교정하였다. 교정된 소닉노즐의 유량 측정범위는 약 0.6~90, 000 cc/min 범위를 갖는 것으로 나타났으며, 사용유동 조건에 해당되는 레이놀드 수(Reynolds number) 범위는 26~75, 700 으로 확인되었다. 이러한 결과는 교정된 소닉노즐을 이용하여 진공공정에서 필요한 극 미세 유량의 정밀측정을 가능하게한 새로운 연구결과로 판단된다. 교정된 소닉노즐을 이용하여 진공펌프의 배기속도 측정결과는 기 구축된 정적법을 이용한 배기속도 측정결과와 3% 이내의 오차범위내로 매우 잘 일치함을 보였다. 교정된 소닉노즐은 향후 반도체 및 디스플레이 공정에 사용되는 다양한 진공펌프들의 배기속도를 현장에서 간단하게 평가할 수 있는 '현장 성능평가 장치'에 활용할 예정이며, 현재 공정현장에서 배기속도 측정에 널리 사용 중인 MFC를 대체할 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

Pneumatic levitation is based upon Bernoulli's principle. However, this method is known to require a large gas flow rate that can lead to an increase in the cost of products. In this case, the gas flow rate should be increased, and the compressible effects of the gas may be of practical importance. In the present study, a computational fluid dynamics method has been used to obtain insights into Bernoulli levitation flows. Three-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations in combination with the SST k-${\omega}$ turbulence model were solved using a fully implicit finite volume scheme. The gas flow rate, workpiece diameter,and clearance gap between the workpiece and the circular cylinder were varied to investigate the flow characteristics inside. It is known that there is an optimal clearance gap for the lifting force and that increasing the supply gas flow rate results in a larger lifting force.

An experimental study was conducted to observe the spray characteristics for different flow rates and rotating speeds of a rotating fuel nozzle of a slinger combustor. The water spray ejected from the nozzle orifice was visualized using a high-speed camera and a light source. It was confirmed that the atomization was improved, as the flow rate decreased and rotating speed increased. The characteristic maps for the spray characteristics and performance parameters showed that the aerodynamic Weber number and the liquid-air momentum flux ratio were associated with the liquid primary breakup, and the liquid-air momentum flux ratio and Rossby number were closely correlated with the liquid ejection mode.

Reactants of PEMFC are hydrogen and oxygen in gas phases and fuel cell overpotential could be reduced when reactants are smoothly transported. Numerous studies to modify cathode flow field design have been conducted because oxygen mass transfer in high current density region is dominant voltage loss factor. Among those cathode flow field designs, a block in flow field is used to forced supply reactant gas to porous gas diffusion layer. In this study, the block was installed on a simple fuel cell model. Using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), effects of forced convection due to blocks on a polarization curve and local current density contour were studied when different air flow rates were supplied. The high current density could be achieved even with low air supply rate due to forced convection to a gas diffusion layer and also with multiple blocks in series compared to a single block due to an increase of forced convection effect.

In the reactor for the american standard test method (ASTM) D5757-95 with swirl injection nozzles, the attrition characteristics of sand was investigated. The change of particle size distribution and weight of fine particles were compared to identify the effect of swirl injection nozzle on attrition. The fine particles due to particle attrition increased with increasing gas velocities. The weight of fine particles due to jet attrition was changed with angle of swirl injection nozzle. The fine particles decreased with decreasing the angle of swirl injection nozzle. Also, the change of particle size distribution increased with increasing the number of swirl injection nozzles at the same flow rate.
