This experimental study was to investigate spray angles and drop sizes in an external mixed twin-fluid swirl jet nozzle. Twin-fluid swirl jet nozzle with swirlers designed four swirl angles such as $0^{\circ},\;22.5^{\circ},\;45^{\circ},\;64.2^{\circ}$ was employed. A PDA system was utilized for the measurement of drop size and mean velocity. Water and air were used as the working fluids in this experiment. The mass flow rate of water was fixed as 0.03 kg/min, and air flow rates were controlled to have the air/liquid mass ratio from 1.0 to 6.0. As a result, swirl angle controlled to spray angles and drop sizes. It was found that swirl angle was increased with spray angle and with decreased SMD. However, the effect of swirl angle was reduced at large air/liquid mass ratio(Mr=6.0).

The present article deals with comparisons of published liquid breakup models for diesel sprays to analyze the influence of breakup models on various spray parameters. The three different models tested in this study are the surface wave instability (Wave) model, the Taylor analogy breakup (TAB) model, and the drop drag model(DDM). The numerical results using these models are compared with several experimental data to assess the prediction capabilities of breakup models. Additional task in this study is to investigate effects of the breakup time constant in the Wave model on the spray parameters because the spray behavior is sensitive to the breakup time constant. It is seen that there is uncertainly about the breakup time constant indicating that the suitable acceptance of the constant is important, and the TAB model generally shows significant under-prediction of Sauter Mean Diameter(SMD). In addition, it may be indicated that differences between the DDM and Wave model are not significant, showing that the DDM may be suitable for air-assisted atomization rather than pressure atomization.

In this paper, experimental investigation results of the effect of partial admission ratio on the performance of axial turbine was presented. A supersonic impulse turbine of gas generator cycle liquid rocket engine turbopump was used for the test. for experimental purpose, a nozzle block, in which total 14 number of axi-symmetric convergent-divergent nozzles are arranged circumferentially, was designed and manufactured. Partial admission ratio was controlled by changing the number of active nozzles. High pressure air was used as working medium for the test. The experimental result revealed that the performance of the supersonic impulse turbine does not much affected by the partial admission ratio for supersonic impulse turbine.

본 연구에서는 Arachidic acid Langmuir-Blodgett (LB)막의 계면특성과 전기적 특성을 측정하였다. Arachidic aicd는 포화지방산으로 ($CH_3(CH_2)_{18}COOH$)의 구조를 가지며, 크기가 27.5[$\AA$]으로 $CH_3(CH_2)_{18}$의 소수기와 COOH의 친수기로 구성되어 있다. LB막은 박막제작시 배열과 배향의 제어가 용이하다. Chloroform을 용매로 하여 2[mmol/l]의 농도를 조성하여 ${\pi}-A$ 등온선을 통해 기체 상태, 액체 상태, 고체 상태를 관찰하였으며 편광각 현미경 (Brewster angle microscopy) 이미지를 통해 각 상태에서의 이미지를 관찰하였다. 또한 LB막의 제작시 사용되어진 ITO 기판은 친수처리 전 후의 접촉각의 측정을 통하여 막의 안정성을 확인하였다. 또한 LB막을 Metal/LB막/Metal 구조의 소자로 제작하여 전압-전류 특성을 측정하였다.

본 논문은 태양열이용 냉난방시스템 중에서 실제로 액체흡수제를 재생하는 재생탑 내의 충진층에 있어서의 열 및 물질전달의 실험치와 이론적 해석에 의한 결과치와의 비교를 나타내고 있다.특히 물질전달의 극대화를 위하여 충진층 내에서 공기와 흡수제의 접촉면적을 크게 할 필요가 있는데,이를 위해서 본 실험에서는 직경이 3cm인 플라스틱제 충진재를 사용하였으며, 흡수제로는 저농도의 염화리튬 수용액이 사용 되었다. 충진층 내에서의 최적 높이를 예측하기 위하여 해석의 모델인 실험장치를 직접 제작하여 실험을 수행하였고, 이론 해석에 있어서 체적 열전달을 고려한 정상상태를 모델화하여 해석하였다. 이 결과, 충진층 내에서 실험치와 이론적인 계산치가 잘 일치함을 알 수 있었으며, 충진층의 높이가 2m 이상인 경우에는 높이에 따른 재생량의 차이가 없어서 없음을 알 수 있었다.

Spray characteristic parameters such as droplet mean velocity, diameter, and volume flux are measured at various locations of spray in order to investigate the evolutionary feature of droplets exiting from a direct-injection type thruster nozzle-orifice. The experimental results indicate that the large droplets with high velocity at the center of upstream are broken-up into smaller droplets with low velocity due to their continuous momentum loss to surrounding air along with spray evolution toward downstream. Also it is found that the high volume flux expands its distribution in radial direction as a results of spray spreading and dispersion.

Test and launch facilities which use oxygen as the propellant of a launch vehicle have hazards of fire and explosion by the leakage of oxygen. Also, the personnel operating the facilities, which use the high-pressured gases like nitrogen and helium in the closed room, is exposed to the hazard of death from suffocation. Consequently, we should keep out of the hazards and the accidents by monitoring the contents of oxygen in the air. The method and the system construction for monitoring oxygen contents in the air and the results from its application to Naro space center are described on this paper.

The purpose of this study is to present the atomization characteristics of 2-phase internal mixing nozzle. The obtained results are considered as the essential information of understanding the spray characteristics from the nozzle exit of an aerated nozzle. In this study, SMD and AMD are mainly measured at the distance of Z=10, 20, 50, 80, 120 and 170mm from the nozzle tip. The liquid flow rate was kept at 1.8g/s and the air feeding pressure was changed from 10kpa to 100kpa increasingly. The analysis of the acquired data was performed by 2-D PDPA system and in order to get the realibility, the number of data used in calculating the SMD & AMD were 10,000 samples.

지난 8월 13일 서울 종로구 소격동 국립현대미술관 서울관 공사현장에서 화재 발생으로 4명이 숨지고 18명이 중경상을 입는 등 많은 인명피해를 냈다. 이처럼 인명피해가 컸던 것은 우레탄 공사를 하던 밀폐공간에서 불이 나면서 발생한 유독가스 때문에 사람들이 제대로 대피하지 못했기 때문이다. 사고발생 원인으로 '용접공사' 여부를 놓고 공방을 벌였으나 경찰은 '전기합선'이라는 잠정 결론을 내렸다. 지난 2008년 1월에 발생한 경기도 이천 냉동창고 화재는 40명의 목숨을 앗아갔다. 화재 원인은 냉동배관을 설치하면서 전기 용접을 하기 위해 불을 붙였다가 공기 중에 차 있던 유증기(기름증기)와 만나면서 폭발이 일어난 것이었다. 인화성 액체(유기용제)를 취급하는 건설현장에서는 다량의 유증기가 발생할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 건조한 조건일 경우 정전기에 의한 화재 폭발 누출사고의 발생 위험이 높다. 기계설비공사에서 화재, 폭발 위험성이 가장 큰 공사는 용접공사이기에 용접공사를 할 때 화재, 감전의 위험성을 배제한 후 공사에 들어간다. 용접으로 인한 사망사고의 유형으로는 용접 중 추락사고와 더불어 용접 불꽃이 가연성 물질에 옮겨 붙어 화재 발생으로 인한 질식사, 용접작업 중 절연체가 파손된 용접기 홀더 충전부의 접촉으로 인한 감전사 등이 있다. 본지는 용접으로 인한 화재 감전 등의 사고발생을 미연에 방지하기 위해 안전작업 수칙 및 안전수칙 체크리스트, 재해사례를 지난호부터 시리즈로 연재하고 있다.
