In this paper, the prediction of adiabatic capillary tube of heat pump using carbon dioxide is investigated theoretically and experimentally to offer the basic design data for the operating parameters of this system. The operating parameters considered in this study include evaporation temperature, cooling pressure of gas cooler, mass flowrate, and the length and diameter of capillary tube. Based on study results of several researchers, the correlation predicting the length of capillary tube of $CO_2$ heat pump was proposed. And the experimental results of evaporation temperature, mass flowrate and cooling pressure in adiabatic capillary tube have an good agreement to those calculated from Eq. (3) within 0.63~10.9%. Therefore, the prediction calculating the length of adiabatic capillary tube of $CO_2$ heat pump was proposed at the given conditions such as cooling pressure, evaporation temperature and capillary tube diameter.

With the increase in the speed of ships and the size of ocean structures, the importance of flow noise has become increasingly critical in meeting regulatory standards. However, unlike active investigations in aeroacoustics fields for airplanes and trains, which are based on acoustic analogy methods for tonal and broadband frequency noise, only the discrete blade passing frequency noise from propellers is considered in marine fields. In this study, prediction methods for broadband noise in marine propellers and underwater appendages are investigated using FW-H Formulation1B, which can consider the mechanism of primary noise generation of trailing edge noise. The original FW-H Formulation 1B is based on the pressure correlation function tolackitsgeneralityandaccuracy. To overcome these limitations, wall-pressure spectrum models are adopted to improve the generality in fluid mediums. The comparison of the experimental results obtained in air reveals that the proposed model exhibits a higher accuracy within 5 dB. Furthermore, the prediction procedures for broadband noise for hydrofoils are established, and the estimation of broadband noise is conducted based on the results of the computational fluid dynamics.

A Large Eddy Simulation (LES), adopting the Eddy Dissipation Concept (EDC) 1-step model, was successfully performed for backdraft phenomena. The activation energy of the finite chemistry reaction in the EDC 1-step model was adjusted to simulate the backdraft. The prediction of the EDC 1-step model was similar to that of the Mixing-Controlled Fast Chemistry (MCFC) model, except when the backdraft occurred. The EDC 1-step model could be used to simulate the experimental peak pressure, but not the first peak pressure of the backdraft.

산사태 발생 예측은 재해를 예방하고 대처하기 위한 가장 근본적이며 효과적인 방법이나, 과학기술의 발전과 많은 노력에도 불구하고 아직 산사태의 발생 장소와 시기를 예측하는 것은 매우 어려운 일이다. 산사태 발생 예측 기법은 크게 경험론적 지수기법, 통계적 해석기법, 물리적 해석 기법으로 나뉠 수 있다. 이 세 방법은 각기 장단점이 있으나 일반적으로 후자로 갈수록 많은 데이터가 요구되고, 해석에 시간이 필요하며, 보다 신뢰할만한 결과를 도출할 수 있다. 경험론적 지수 기법은 국내에서 실무적으로 널리 활용되고 있으며, 통계적 해석기법에 관한 연구도 수행된 바 있다. 하지만 이 두 방법론은 일정량 또는 일정강도 이상의 강우 발생 시 산사태의 발생 위험도를 공간적으로 예측할 수 있으나, 산사태의 발생 시점과 연속적인 강우량 또는 강우강도의 관계를 정량적으로 분석하기 힘든 한계가 있어 최근에는 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위해 최근 무한사면안정 모형과 토양수분침투 모형을 결합한 시변 사면안정모형들이 활용되기 시작하고 있다. 대표적으로는 TRIGRS가 있으며, 이 모형에서는 선형화한 1차원 Richards 방정식의 해석해를 활용하여 토양수분량을 계산한 후 이 정보를 무한사면안정모형에 반영하여 시변적인 사면안정도를 구하고 있다. 하지만 Richards 방정식을 선형화하기 위해서 제한된 토양수분-압력 관계식이 사용되며, GUI가 제공되지 않아 전처리 및 후처리가 번거로운 한계가 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 한계를 개선하기 위해 3차원 Richards방정식을 수치적으로 계산하여 보다 다양한 토양수분-압력 모형과 초기조건을 반영할 수 있게 하였다. 또한 GUI를 지원하여 사용자가 보다 손쉽게 해석모형을 사용할 수 있도록 하였다.

The understanding of the pressure associated with air blast, which travels through air, and its effect on surface and underground structures is highly important. It is necessary to determine the pressure change with time and distance for a computer simulation of the explosion impact on a structure. From the previous studies, many empirical equations for estimating the parameters related to the pressure change. In this study, the empirical equations for predicting peak overpressure, duration of positive phase, impulse, minimum negative pressure, duration of negative pressure, arrival time, and decay constant were reviewed and analyzed. Also, the pressure changes predicted from the Kingery equation, which is the most commonly used, and from the other empirical equations were compared.

An experimental study was carried out to measure frictional pressure drop in flow boiling to deionized water in a microchannel having a hydraulic diameter of $500{\mu}m$. Tests were performed in the ranges of heat fluxes from 100 to $400kW/m^2$, vapor qualities from 0 to 0.2 and mass fluxes of 200, 400 and $600kg/m^2s$. The frictional pressure drop during flow boiling is predicted by using two models; the homogeneous model that assumes equal phase velocity and the separate flow model that allows a slip velocity between two phases. From the experimental results, it is found that the two phase multiplier decreases with an increase in mass flux. Measured data of pressure drop are compared to a few available correlations proposed for macroscale and mini/microscale. The homogeneous model well predicted frictional pressure drop within MAE of 29.4 % for the test conditions considered in this work.

Firing test of solid rocket motor with pintle-technology carried out and the measured pressure-time curve was compared with the values predicted by the internal ballistic and performance analysis. Without baffle, the measured combustion chamber pressure was similar with the predicted pressure at the beginning of combustion, but gradual increase in pressure, which was unexpected with the end-burning grain of which burning area is constant, was observed. A baffle was inserted to make uniform flow over the pintle. Unlike the thruster without baffle, the measured combustion chamber pressure was 1.4 times higher than the predicted value. Through the CFD simulation, 10% of total pressure loss of the flow was observed from combustion chamber to nozzle throat when the baffle was inserted. The measured pressure with baffle was predicted well by considering the total pressure loss in the internal ballistic modelling and performance analysis.

$\beta$-Glucosidase enzyme reaction under high hydrostatic pressure was investigated in terms of physical chemistry. A model substrate (p-nitrophenyl-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside(pNPG)) was used, and the pressure effects on the enzymatic hydrolysis (pNPG${\rightarrow}$pNP) at 25 MPa, 50 MPa, 75 MPa, and 100 MPa were analyzed. Two parts of the reaction such as kinetic and equilibrium stages were considered for mathematical modelling, and their physicochemical parameters such as forward and inverse reaction constants, equilibrium constant, volume change by pressure, etc. were mathematically modeled. The product concentration increased with pressure, and the two stages of reaction were observed. Prediction models were derived to numerically compute the product concentrations according to reaction time over kinetic to equilibrium stages under high pressure condition. Conclusively, the $\beta$-Glucosidase enzyme reaction could be activated by pressurization within 100 MPa, and the developed models were very successful in their prediction.

Pneumatic system is widely applied to ground facility and launcher on-board system. One of the important aspects of pneumatic system is to meet pressure and flow rate requirements of gas consumers. In this paper, a systematic analytical approach for pneumatic system is proposed, which uses and systematically combines previous studies. The proposed analytical method is that pressure/flow calculation using conservation equations are combined with sonic limit check at vena contracta of the components of pneumatic system, which checks the installed components whether they are merely pressure loss elements or flow limiting element of the system. In this paper, gas consumers are categorized and simulated using the proposed method. The results reveal that the feeding performance of general pneumatic system can be properly estimated using the proposed approach.

A safety relief valve is a device that relieves excessive pressure in piping lines or tanks and maintains pressure at the appropriate pressure level for use. The (pressure in the) safety valve is directly influenced by the change in the back pressure, depending on whether the vents in the spring bonnet are vented to the atmosphere or to the outlet. The back pressure is divided into the built-up back pressure and the superimposed back pressure, and the back pressure characteristics vary according to the usage conditions. The safety valve used in this study is a Conventional Safety Relief Valve. The blowdown of the safety valve is predicted by establishing the equilibrium equation between the opening force and spring force considering the back pressure characteristics. Its reliability is secured by using CFX17.1. In addition, the safety of the safety valve trim was examined through fluid-structure interaction analysis.
