In this study, we determined TBP(T-branched pipe) would be available in Fire Safety Codes with strength analyses. A common FEM Program(ABAQUS) was used as analyses method, and the analyses results were confirmed by strength tests of the T-branch pipe. As a result, we concluded that the T-branch pipe can be used safely. Further more, we determined what kind of stainless steel pipe can be used in place of carbon steel pipe(KS D 3507). The stainless steel pipe name Is KS D 3576(stainless steel pipe) 10S, so they can be applied for piping in fire protection system.

On this study, we verified the possibilities of making T-branch pipe forming with carbon steel pipes and stainless steel pipes used by common FEM Program(ABAQUS) which are widely used in the fire protection and building construction fields. In this kind of T-branch pipe forming works, in principle, the seamless pipe is used. If the pipe has the seam, the forming face must be the opposite side of the seam. The forming works are carried out by a truncated cone shaped plug. We found that the face slope and the length of plug are the most important factor in pipe forming. Based on the results of forming analyses, we proposed the minimum height and thickness of pipe branch forming.

This study is performed for propose that exactly equivalent length of TBP in the applied at water-based fire protection system. For predict the measuring position of equivalent length, we determined the measuring position using the FVM about pressure drop of TBP. For the reckon of the exact about measured value we compared with the result of FVM and we knew the similar value each other. Using the results we proposed the friction loss measuring position that inlet of main dirction is 20 times of appellation diameter in main pipe, outlet of main dirction is 10 times of appellation diameter in main pipe and outlet of branched direction is 20 times of appellation diameter.

We have developed a new split tee which can be used to effectively branch into a main gas steel pipelines without losing any gas pressure or having to shut down a line. The split tee has been designed considering the locations of branch connection to the pipelines. Therefore, we could keep the depth of buried pipelines which used to be the problem of the conventional split tees. Test results of the developed split tee showed that the performance of the tightness, hydraulic strength, sealing, welding, bending, and compatibility were excellent. The application of the split tee can provide the advantage of eliminating cost and time, and easy field pipeline coatings.

It is an essential subject to decrease the mass of a launch vehicle for improving performance and efficiency of space launch system. Particularly, reducing the engine supporting area is necessary for high efficiency of propulsion system with clustered engine systems. The engine supporting area is related to the branch location of the oxidizer feeding line. This article deals the performance variation of the propulsion system such as the mass of the oxidizer feeding line, pressurization pressure of the oxidizer tank, and the onset of nucleation boiling in the oxidizer pipe with the branch location of the main feeding line.

본 논문에서는 피복아크용접(SMAW)을 자동용접으로(GMAW) 전환시키기 위한 기초 연구로서 GMA용접가스가 기공율에 미치는 영향을 보고자 한다. 기공율 평가를 위해 반자동 소방용 분기배관실험장치를 제작하였다. 분기배관의 기공율을 평가하기 위해 보호가스 3종(Ar, $CO_2$, 8:2 혼합가스), 전압을 변수로 설정하여 GMA용접을 실시하였다. 용접을 실시한 시편을 용접방향으로 절단하여 기공율 평가를 실시하였다.

To improve the efficiency of piping, recently the pre-fabrication piping system has been introduced, and much attention has been paid to TBPs which can replace Tee-joint. Forming and forming analysis on TBPs made from Carbon steel pipes for pressure service(KS D 3562 Sch40) and Stainless steel pipes(KS D 3576 20S) have been conducted to determine working pressure. Forming and forming analysis objects are $32A{\times}25A$, $40A{\times}25A$, $40A{\times}32A$, $50A{\times}25A$, $50A{\times}32A$, $50A{\times}40A$ TBPs.

For this study, the forming analyses and body strength tests of TBP were performed on the main pipe size 150A(KS D3507, KS D 3576 10S). The branched pipe sizes utilized were 25A, 32A, 40A, 50A, 65A, 80A, 100A and 125A. A general FEM program, ABAQUS, was used as the forming analyses method of TBP. Using the results, the strength of TBP was then tested in order to determine the safety of TBP when the working pressure was applied. The results indicate that TBP may be safely used in water-based fire protection pipe systems in terms of the strength.
