An experimental study is performed on atomization characteristics and stable operating condition for injection of high viscous waste vegetable oil using effervescent atomizer with two aerator tubes. Consideration is given to the effects of ALR and liquid viscosity on the velocity and mean diameter of the injected droplet. It is found that (i) as ALR increases, the axial velocity of the droplet is increased, while half-velocity width and SMD are decreased regardless of the change in liquid viscosities, (ii) the rate of fine drop distribution occupied in the total spray field is increased with an increasing in ALR, and (iii) the effect of viscosity on atomization characteristics is minor.

In the present study, a PIV measurement and image processing technique were applied in order to investigate the flow characteristics in the gas injected liquid bath. The circulation of liquid was induced by upward bubble flow. Due to the centrifugal force, the flow was well developed near both wall sides than in the center of a bath. The vortex flow irregularly repeated generation and disappearance which helped to accelerate the mixing process. The bubble rise velocity in the bottom region was relatively lower than in the upper region because the energy generated by bubbles' behavior in the region near the nozzle was almost converted into kinetic energy But bubble rise velocity increases with the increase of the axial distance since kinetic energy of rising bubbles is added to buoyancy force. In conclusion, the flow increased bubble rise velocity and the flow of the bottom region became more active.

A series of experiment has been performed on the spray characteristics in a cylindrical confined space with the injection pressure taken as a parameter. By using a single-hole patternator and the Malvern particle sizer, the spray mass flux, drop size and volume concentration distributions along the radial and axial directions were obtained ; the line-of- sight data by Malvern particle sizer have been converted to the ring-of-sight data by using the tomographical transformation techniqe. The experimental results show that, due to the restriction on the ambient gas entrainment by the wall boundary, the effective spray angle is increasing. The spray drops were measured to be smaller in the confined space because of a large number of floating small drops by recirculation of the gas phase and the breakup of large drops by the wall collision. Also the details on the flow behavior of the confined spray are discussed.

The pathological basis for cervicogenic headache may lie within the cervical spine. Clinically patients with cervicogenic headache complain of unilateral pain radiating in an atypical fashion from the occipital region. Our clinic has successfully treated post-traumatic cervicogenic headache with C2 spinal ganglion block. The technique of fluoroscopic guided injection was used to locate the C2 spinal ganglion. This technique is facilitated by the constancy of the anatomical relationship between the C2 ganglion and the midpoint of the atlanto-axial joint. There are no major structures near the proximity of the ganglion.

The paper describes an experimental investigation of axisymmetric diesel spray and flame which is held in rapid compression machine (RCM) with electromagnetic single injection nozzle. The axisymmetric diesel spray and flame are taken with high speed photograph and analysis it with image processor. The data presented include fuel concentration of spray, flame temperature, soot concentration of flame in axial and radial direction at a moment and compared it with each other.

In the present paper, we evaluate the effects of the safe-end length and thickness of the similar metal weld (SMW) of safety injection nozzles on stress distributions at the dissimilar metal weld (DMW). For this evaluation, we carry out detailed 2-D axisymmetric finite element analyses by considering four different values of the safe-end length and four different values of the thickness of SMW. Based on the results obtained, we found that the SMW thickness affects the axial stresses at the center of the DMW for the shorter safe-end length; on the other hand, it does not affect the hoop stresses. In terms of the safe-end length, the values of the axial and hoop stresses at the inner surface of the DMW center increase as the safe-end length increases. In particular, for the cases considered in the present study, the stress distributions at the DMW center can be categorized according to certain values of safe-end length.

We report a case of an accidental extravasation of contrast material. A large-volume extravasation occurred in an adult during spiral contrast-enhanced CT. The amount of contrast material extravasated was 47 ml. The patient had a swelling of the dorsum right hand. The extravasation injury site was determined by CT scanning. The extavasation case was examined using five separate display techniques: axial, multi planar reformation (MPR), maximum intensity projection (MIP), volume rendering, and shaded-surfaced display (SSD). This paper introduces extravasation with the CT and the three-dimensional appearance.

To elucidate the effects of flow rate on the hydraulic fracturing property of andesite, the hydraulic fracturing tests were conducted under three flow rates. As the tests are conducted with 1ml/min, 2ml/min and 3 ml/min under the constant axial load of 40 kN, the breakdown pressures of andesite seem to be constant as 163kg/cm$^2$. The hydraulic fracturing tests were carried out under the temperatures of five stages to elucidate the effects of temperature variation on hydraulic fracturing property of granite. As the tests are carried out under the constant flow rate of 1.7ml/min, with the axial load of 40kN, the breakdown pressures of granite are 168kg/cm$^2$ at room temperature, and 124kg/cm$^2$ at 20$0^{\circ}C$. The breakdown pressure decreases about 25% than that of room temperature with increasing the temperature. Under the controlled flow rates, the initiation pressures of the microcracks of granite are well coincided with the breakdown pressures and these results are also confirmed by the levels of acoustic emission.

During the late phase of severe accidents of light water reactors, a porous debris bed is expected to develop on the bottom of the flooded reactor cavity after breakup of the melt in water. The geometrical configuration, i.e., internal and external characteristics, of the debris bed is significant for the adequate assessment of the coolability of the relocated corium. The internal structure of a debris bed was investigated experimentally using the DAVINCI (Debris bed research Apparatus for Validation of the bubble-Induced Natural Convection effect Issue) test facility. Particle sedimentation under the influence of a two-phase natural convection flow due to the decay heat in the debris bed was simulated by dropping various sizes of particles into a water vessel with air bubble injection from the bottom. Settled particles were collected and sieved to obtain the particle mass, size distribution in the radial and axial positions, and the bed porosity and permeability. The experimental results showed that the center part of the particle bed tended to have larger particles than the peripheral area. For the axial distribution, the lower layer had a higher fraction of larger particles. As the sedimentation progressed, the size distribution in the upper layers can shift to larger sizes because of the higher vapor generation rate and stronger flow intensity.

The automatic drawer is used to absorb the movement shock and adjust its velocity when it opens and closes. The tube in shock-absorber is the cylindrical case which surrounds its parts and is made of acetal. The purpose of this study is to determine the quality stability of the tube in the shock-absorber in injection molding process. The tube which had been manufactured in the process with 4 cavity cooling unit was used. In this study, the analysis and test are carried out to determine its quality stability. Which are the quality analysis with numerical simulation and performance tests of the tube compared with one of foreign make. It is calculated that the injection press is 87.6 MPa and the deflections in X, Y, Z directions are ranged in 0.07~1.00 mm. When the researched tube is compared with the foreign made tube, the maximum bending compressive load is 231 kgf higher, average axial compressive load is 0.05 kgf higher, and the roughness(Ra) on the inner surface is $0.02\;{\mu}m$. lower. In the result, it is known that the quality of researched tube in injection mold process is stable and its performance is superior.
