An oxidizer pump of a turbopump for a 30-ton class gas generator cycle engine was tested in the medium of liquid oxygen. The turbine was driven by cold hydrogen gas in the test. The oxidizer pump was operated stably at both design and off-design conditions, satisfying the performance requirements. The pump head coefficient from the liquid oxygen test was 2~3% lower than that from the water test. The power required to run the oxidizer pump was well balanced with the power produced by the turbine.

As an approach for estimation of the droplet size in the molten salt-liquid metal extraction process, a droplet formation experiment at room temperature was conducted to evaluate the applicability of the Scheele-Meister model with water-mercury system as a surrogate that is similar to the molten salt-liquid metal system. In the experiment, droplets were formed through the nozzle and the droplet size was measured using a digital camera and image analysis software. As nozzles, commercially available needles with inner diameters (ID) of 0.018 cm and 0.025 cm and self-fabricated nozzles with 3-holes (ID: 0.0135 cm), 4-holes (ID: 0.0135 cm), and 2-holes (ID: 0.0148 cm) were used. The mercury penetration lengths in the nozzles were 1.3 cm for the needles and 0.5 cm for the self-fabricated nozzles. The droplets formed from each nozzle maintained stable spherical shape up to 20 cm below the nozzle. The droplet size measurements were within a 10% error range when compared to the Scheele-Meister model estimates. The experimental results show that the Scheele-Meister model for droplet size estimation can be applied to nozzles that stably form droplets in a water-mercury system.

In recent years, packed column has been widely used in separation processes, such as absorption, desorption, distillation, and extraction, in the petrochemical, fine chemistry, and environmental industries. Packed column is used as a contacting facility for gas-liquid and liquid-liquid systems filled with random packed materials in the column. Packed column has various advantages such as low pressure drop, economical efficiency, thermally sensitive liquids, easy repairing restoration, and noxious gas treatment. The performance of a packed column is highly dependent on the maintenance of good gas and liquid distribution throughout a packed bed; thus, this is an important consideration in a design of packed column. In this study, hydraulic pressure drop, hold-up as a function of liquid load, and mass transfer in the air, air/water, and air-NH₃/water systems were studied to find the geometrical characteristic for raschig super-ring experiment dry pressure drop. Based on the results, design factors and operating conditions to handle noxious gases were obtained. The dry pressure drop of the random packing raschig super-ring was linearly increased as a function of gas capacity factor with various liquid loads in the Air/Water system. This result is lower than that of 35 mm Pall-ring, which is most commonly used in the industrial field. Also, it can be found that the hydraulic pressure drop of raschig super-ring is consistently increased by gas capacity factor with various liquid loads. When gas capacity factor with various liquid loads is increased from 1.855 to 2.323 kg^-1/2 m^-1/2 S^-1, hydraulic pressure drop increases around 17%. Finally, the liquid hold-up related to packing volume, which is a parameter of specific liquid load depending on gas capacity factor, shows consistent increase by around 3.84 kg^-1/2 m^-1/2 S^-1 of the gas capacity factor. However, liquid hold-up significantly increases above it.

물은 이 세상에서 공기와 더불어 가장 흔한 존재이지만 우리들 인체의 주성분이고 없어서는 안될 존재이다. 물은 가스상태, 액체상태, 그리고 고체상태가 함께 존재하는 희귀한 성질을 가진 물질로 결빙 때는 비체중이 물보다 적어 위에서부터 얼음이 언다. 그래서 강태공도 얼음 위의 낚시를 즐기는 것이 아닌가.

The bearing/sealing test (BST) facility is intended for tests of bearing and seal for turbopump of liquid rocket engine (LRE) in various media (water, liquid nitrogen, liquid oxygen). The bearing test for serviceability is fulfilled with the estimation of the flow rate of cooling medium through the test bearing separator and with the simulation of axial and(or) radial loading. The purpose of seals test is the determination of magnitude of leakages through the seal and a time variation of this magnitude.

어떤 유체는 전기장에서 순간적으로 고체화한다. 이러한 다변형의 물질은 더욱 신속하고 적절한 기계의 앞날을 약속하고 있다. T-1000 (영화 터미네이터2; 심판의 날에서 생동하는 거의 불멸의 로보트)는 능숙하게 액체에서 고체로 변환다. T-1000은 총탄으로 관통되었을 때, 로보트의 액체-금속 피부는 관통된 구멍으로 흘러 들어가고, 산산조각이 났을때 T-1000은 녹아버린 후에 다시 제원형으로 응결된다. 전기유변성 유체는 이 영화제작자의 상상력에 어느 정도 적용될 수 있을 것이다. 전기유변성 유체는 전기장이 있는 곳에서 변형을 일으키는 물질이다. 주어진 전기장의 세기에 따라 전기유변성 유체는 물처럼 자유롭게 흐르기도 하고, 꿀처럼 진득하게 흐르기도 하며 제라틴처럼 고체화하기도 한다. 참으로 물질이 수천분의 일초사이에 한상태에서 다른 상태로 변할 수 있는 것이다. 전기유변성 유체는 만들기 쉽다; 절연액체에 미시적 입자가 분산된 것이다. 그러나 아직은 상업용으로 쓰이지 못하고 있다. 여러가지 문제점 중의 하나가 고체로서는 구조적으로 약하고, 또, 액체로서는 마찰성이 문제이며, 특히 고온에서는 화학적으로 불안정하다는 것이다.

감압증발의 효율을 향상시키기 위한 방법으로 액주내의 기포생성에 의한 자기 미립화를 수반하는 과열액분류의 증발을 분사 감압증발이라고 하며, 특히 적절한 방법으로 액체내에 기포핵을 공급하는 경우에는 매우 좋은 증발성능이 얻어 진다는 것이 보고되어 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 온배수를 감압증발시켜 저온저압의 증기를 제조하여 MVR로부터 승온승압에 의해 고온의 증기를 얻기위한 것이 연구의 목적이므로, 증발효율향상을 위해 기포핵 공급용 전해전류장치를 설치하고, 감압증발용의 노즐을 원통형 튜브로 대체하기위해 튜브형 노즐로 부터 과열액을 급격히 감압시켜 자기미립화에 의한 증발을 유도하여 전해전류가 증발효율에 미치는 영향을 실험적으로 연구하고자 작동액체로써 물을 사용하고, 액체온도, 액체유량, 과열도 및 기포핵 공급용의 전해전류량을 변화시켜 실험을 수행하였다.(중략)

본 연구는 mushroom complete medium(MCM) 액체배지에 수삼 추출물(GE, $65^{\circ}Bx$)을 첨가하여 면역활성이 증진된 노루궁뎅이버섯(Hericium erinaceum) 균사체를 배양하고, 균사체로부터 활성다당성분을 분획하고자 하였다. MCM에 대하여 GE를 5, 10과 15%(v/v) 첨가한 액체배지에서 균사체를 배양하고, 각각의 조다당획분(HE-GE-5-CP, HE-GE-10-CP와 HE-GE-15-CP)으로 분획하여 면역활성을 측정한 결과, HE-GE-10-CP는 HE-GE-5-CP와 HE-GE-15-CP보다 높은 활성을 나타내었으며, GE를 첨가하지 않은 MCM에서 배양된 균사체 조다당획분(HE-CP)보다 유의적으로 증진된 면역활성을 나타내었다. 또한, HE-GE-10-CP의 DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B 분획물 중 가장 높은 활성을 나타낸 HE-GE-10-CP-II획분은 대조군인 HE-CP의 어떠한 획분보다도 유의적으로 높은 면역활성과 암 전이 억제활성을 나타내었다. 한편, 활성획분인 HE-GE-10-CP-II는 arabinose, rhamnose, galactose, glucose와 uronic acid(molar ratio; 0.34:0.26:0.99:1.00:0.39)로 구성되어 있으나, 대조군인 HE-CP의 동일용매 용출획분으로서 HE-GE-10-CP-II보다는 활성이 낮은 HE-CP-II는 fucose, mannose, galactose와 glucose(molar ratio; 0.32:0.55:1.00:0.96)를 함유하여 다른 구성당 분포를 나타내었다. 따라서 노루궁뎅이버섯 균사체 액체배양에서 수삼 추출물 첨가는 균사체의 구성당 변화를 통한 면역활성 증진에 관여하는 것으로 사료되어 기능성 소재 개발에 유용할 것으로 사료된다.

An airlift pump can be used to pump liquids and sediments within itself, which cannot easily be pumped up by a conventional method, by using the airlift effect. This characteristic of the airlift pump can be exploited in a DCFC (Direct Carbon Fuel Cell) so that molten fuel with high temperature may be carried or transported. The basic characteristics of airlift are investigated. A simple system is constructed, where the reservoir is filled with water, a tube is inserted, and air is supplied from the bottom of the tube. Then, water is lifted and its flow rate is measured. Bubble patterns in the tube are observed in a range of air flow rates with the parameters of the tube diameter and submergence ratio, leading to four distinct regimes. The pumping performance is predicted, and the correlation between the supplied gas flow rate and the induced flow rate of water is found.

The main purpose of this work is to investigate the effects of the wall thickness, the ultrasonic frequency, and the acoustic impedance of wall material on the liquid-film thickness measurement by an ultrasonic pulse echo method. A series of liquid-film thickness measurements in a horizontal air-water stratified system was performed employing a plate-type and a tube-type test sections. Measurements were repeated changing (1) the wall thickness of the test section and (2) the transducer frequency. Also, in an effort to improve the accuracy of the measurement and to exam me the effect of acoustic impedance of wall material on the measurement by an ultrasonic technique, two different stand-off rods, one made of stainless steel and the other polyacrylate, were used in the liquid-film thickness measurement. These experimental results are discussed and compared with the actual film thicknesses.
