본 실험에서는 왕복동식 수소 압축 시스템에서 다양한 스너버 압력변화와 스너버 효과를 조사가 수행되었다. 압력값은 실험적인 방법으로 스너버 시스템에서 각각 6군데에서 압력 값을 측정하였다. 그리고 아크릴 스너버에서의 입, 출구의 압력진폭은 FFT로 얻어진다. 맥동압 감소는 결과의 입, 출구의 진폭으로써 계산되어진다. 이는 각각의 모터 주파수 30, 40, 50Hz에서 각각 58.248%, 57.026%, 56.871%의 맥동압 감소가 일어난다. 압력 손실은 각각의 모터주파수 30, 40, 50Hz에서 0.960%, 1.533%, 1.965% 손실값이 발생한다. 수치해석은 스너버 내부 모든 구역에의 압력 정보를 보여준다. 실험과 수치해석의 결과를 비교하면 좋은 일치성을 보인다. 그렇기 때문에 수치해석으로 구한 압력 예측값은 왕복등식 수소 압축 시스템의 스너버 성능을 포함하는 다양한 수학적 식에 적용가능하다.

전 세계적으로 급속도로 인기가 더해가고 있는 수소에너지는 높은 전환 효율성, 재생성, 친환경적인 특징을 가지며 미래의 주 에너지가 될 것이다. 왕복동식 압축기를 통과한 후의 수소 가스의 압력은 높은 맥동압을 가진다. 스너버는 압축기의 한 구성품으로 맥동압을 낮추고 수소가스의 불순물을 제거하기 위해 사용된다. 이 연구에서의 실험은 스너버 시스템에 사용된 강관의 맥동에 관해 조사하기 위해서 수행되었다. 맥동압은 12 Hz ~ 60 Hz의 모터속도에서 RMS값을 기준으로 0.1625% ~ 0.5305% 그리고 평균압력을 기준으로 0.1621% ~ 0.5277% 감소하였다. 압력손실은 RMS값을 기준으로 0.1092% ~ 1.4419%, 평균압력을 기준으로 0.1493% ~ 1.7507%로 측정되었다. CFD를 이용한 수치해석값은 실험값이 거의 비슷한 결과를 나타내고 강관 관로 내부 가스의 자세한 압력을 설명하기 위한 중요한 역할을 수행한다.

In a utility interactive photovoltaic generation system. a PWM inverter is used for the connection between the p photovoltaic arrays and the utility. The dc current becomes pulsated when the conventional inverter system operates i in the continuous current mode and de current pulsation causes the distortion of the accurrent waveform. This paper p presents the reduced pulsation of de input current by operating the inverter with buck-boost chopper in the d discontinuous conduction mode. The dc current which contains harmonic component is analyzed by means of s separating into two terms of a ripple component and a direct component. The constant dc current without p pulsation is supplied from photovoltaic array to the inverter. The proposed inverter system provides a sinusoidal ac c current for domestic loads and the utility line with unity power factor.

This study is focused on the development of a new muffler. A control valve installed in the exhaust system is operated by torsion springs, and its open angle is controlled automatically corresponding to the engine operating conditions. The experiments were done using an exhaust system simulator having the same pulsation wave frequency and similar pulsation propagation characteristics of a real exhaust system. The purpose of this study is to develop a new muffler system which has improved noise reduction quality and less power loss than conventional mufflers and electronic-control mufflers.

Extracorporeal life support (ECLS) system is a device for respiratory and/or heart failure treatment, and there have been many trials for development and clinical application in the world. Currently, a non-pulsatile blood pump is a standard for ECLS system. Although a pulsatile blood pump is advantageous in physiologic aspects, high pressure generated in the circuits and resultant blood cell trauma remain major concerns which make one reluctant to use a pulsatile blood pump in artificial lung circuits containing a membrane oxygenator. The study was designed to evaluate the hypothesis that placement of a pressure-relieving compliance chamber between a pulsatile pump and a membrane oxygenator might reduce the above mentioned side effects while providing physiologic pulsatile blood flow. The study was performed in a canine model of oleic acid induced acute lung injury (N=16). The animals were divided into three groups according to the type of pump used and the presence of the compliance chamber, In group 1, a non-pulsatile centrifugal pump was used as a control (n=6). In group 2 (n=4), a single-pulsatile pump was used. In group 3 (n=6), a single-pulsatile pump equipped with a compliance chamber was used. The experimental model was a partial bypass between the right atrium and the aorta at a pump flow of 1.8∼2 L/min for 2 hours. The observed parameters were focused on hemodynamic changes, intra-circuit pressure, laboratory studies for blood profile, and the effect on blood cell trauma. In hemodynamics, the pulsatile group II & III generated higher arterial pulse pressure (47$\pm$ 10 and 41 $\pm$ 9 mmHg) than the nonpulsatile group 1 (17 $\pm$ 7 mmHg, p<0.001). The intra-circuit pressure at membrane oxygenator were 222 $\pm$ 8 mmHg in group 1, 739 $\pm$ 35 mmHg in group 2, and 470 $\pm$ 17 mmHg in group 3 (p<0.001). At 2 hour bypass, arterial oxygen partial pressures were significantly higher in the pulsatile group 2 & 3 than in the non-pulsatile group 1 (77 $\pm$ 41 mmHg in group 1, 96 $\pm$ 48 mmHg in group 2, and 97 $\pm$ 25 mmHg in group 3: p<0.05). The levels of plasma free hemoglobin which was an indicator of blood cell trauma were lowest in group 1, highest in group 2, and significantly decreased in group 3 (55.7 $\pm$ 43.3, 162.8 $\pm$ 113.6, 82.5 $\pm$ 25.1 mg%, respectively; p<0.05). Other laboratory findings for blood profile were not different. The above results imply that the pulsatile blood pump is beneficial in oxygenation while deleterious in the aspects to high pressure generation in the circuits and blood cell trauma. However, when a pressure-relieving compliance chamber is applied between the pulsatile pump and a membrane oxygenator, it can significantly reduce the high circuit pressure and result in low blood cell trauma.

To identify the effects of an outflow area on pool boiling heat transfer in a vertical annulus, three different flow restrictors were studied experimentally. For the test, a heated tube of smooth stainless steel and water at atmospheric pressure were used. Both annuli with open and closed bottoms were considered. To validate the effects of the outflow area on the heat transfer, the results of the annulus with the restrictor were compared with the data for the plain annulus without the restrictor. The reduction of the outflow area ultimately results in a decrease in the heat transfer. As the outflow area is very small, a slight increase in heat transfer is also observed. The major cause of this tendency is explained as the difference in the intensity of liquid agitation cause by the movement of coalesced bubbles. It is identified that the convective flow, pulsating flow, and evaporative mechanism are considered as the important mechanisms.
