  • The flow pattern and the solid-liquid mass transfer coefficient in figure-eight shaking vessels were observed by experimental method. The flow patterns, mixing time, power consumption and mass transfer coefficient in the figureeight shaking vessels changed irregularly with increase in the shaking frequency. Any frequency, even in the Fr = 0.095 or more became clear experimentally. The region of the optimum operating condition of the figure-eight shaking was larger than that of the reciprocal shaking. The solid-liquid mass transfer coefficient was correlated with the same correlation as that of the rotary shaking vessel of existing. The gas-liquid mass transfer coefficient of the figure-eight shaking vessel was also correlated with the same type of correlation as that of the rotary shaking vessel of existing.

  • Numerical simulations were performed for the prediction of the flame structure during the interaction between hydrogen and hydrocarbon flames. A counterflow flow geometry was introduced to establish the interacting two flames. Methane was used as a representative hydrocarbon fuel in this study. A well-known numerical code for the counterflow flame, OPPDIF, was used for the simulations. The detailed chemistry was adopted to predict the flame structure reasonably. The interaction of two one-dimensional premixed flames established in counterflow burner was investigated with the global strain rate and velocity ratio. It was found that the maximum temperature located near the methane flame surface while the heat release rate of methane was lower than hydrogen flame. The flame thickness become narrow with increasing the velocity ratio while the global strain rate was fixed. The local strain rate and heat release rate at the methane flame surface were correlated with the global strain rate, while those at the hydrogen flame were not correlated with the global strain rate. However, the maximum temperature of the interacting flames was correlated with the global strain rate.

  • A numerical simulation of the steady and pulsatile flow across the end-to-side anastomosis was performed In order to understand the role of flow dynamics in the preferential bevel opment of distal anastomotic intimal hyperplasla. The finite element technique was employed to solve two-dimensional unsteady pulsatile flow in that region. The results of the steady flow revealed that low shear stresses occur at the proximally occluded host artery and at the recirculation region in the Inner wall just distal to the toe region of the anastomosis. The nor- mal;zed wall shear rate was increased, as was the recirculation zone size in the host artery of the by-pass graft anastomosis, with increased anastomotic junction angle. In order to min imize the size of the low wall shear region which might result in the intimal hyperplasia in the by-pass graft anastomosis, a smaller anastomotic junction angle is recommended. The pulsatile flow simulation revealed flow that regions of low and ascillating mali shear do exist near the anastomosis as In the steady simulation. The shift of stagnation point depends on the pulsation of the flow. As the flow was accelerated at systole, the stagnation point moved downstream, disappered at early diastole and reappeared during late diastole. Low shear stress was also found along both walls of the occluded proximal artery. However, the diastolic flow behavior is quite different from the steady results. The vortex near the occluded artery moved downstream and inwardly during late systole, and disappeared during diastole. Recirculations proximal to the toe and heel regions were significant during diastole. Shear stress oscillation was found along the opposite wall. The results of the present study revealed that tow shear occurs at the proximally occluded host artery aud the recirculation region in the inner wall Just dlstal to the toe region of the anastomosis. The present study suggested that the regions of fluctuated wall shear stress wit flow separation is correlated with the preferential developing regions of anastomosis neointial fibrous hyperplasia.

  • This paper is concerned with the design of four control charts for real-time monitoring of the continuous flow processes. Control charts for both uncorrelated data and correlated data are designed using the Kalman filtering techinque. The relative performance between the designed control charts and traditional control charts is evaluated in terms of the Average Run Length(ARL). Results show that the Adaptive EWMA control charts designed for uncorrelated data has better performance when process mean is shifted, while the residual control charts for correlated data has better performance when process is in control.

  • In this study, a linearized super-cavitation theory was applied in order to analyse the performance of the 2-dimensional foils. For flat plate with non-thickness, the numerical results correlated very well with Nishiyama's theoretical results for closed cavitation model. For plano-convex section, the numerical results correlated very well with Wade's experimental data. The new lifting surface procedure, developed and validated in this study, is generally considered applicable to the performance analyses of the super-cavitating propeller and trans-cavitating propeller.

  • Since March 1988 we have performed 133 arteriovenous fistulae for hemodialysis in 121 patients with chronic renal failure. Of the 133 cases of arteriovenous fistulae, follow-up evaluation was possible for 80 cases which performed in 69 patients. The relation between blood flow and patency rate and duration of arteriovenous fistula was examined. The overall 6 - 12 - 18 -, and 24 - month patency rates of arteriovenous fistulae were 82%, 64%a, 62%, and 57%, respectively. The maximum blood flow was 150 ~ 350ml /min[mean 217.1$\pm$44.27]. The patency duration was evaluated in patients divided into three groups owing to maximum blood flow through the fistulae. The range of maximum blood flow was 150 ~ 200ml /min for group A, 200 ~ 250ml /min for group B, and above 250ml /min for group C. The mean duration of the patency was 10.7$\pm$7.60 months in group A, 14.9$\pm$9.82 months in group B, and 21.6$\pm$11.16 months in group C[p<0 05]. With increased maximum blood flow, the duration of the patency was longer in group A than group B and C [r=0.39, p<0. 05]. The maintenance blood flow was 100 ~ 250ml /min[mean 179.2$\pm$37.26 ml/min]. When the maintenance blood flow was above 200ml /min, long-term patency rate was higher than the group below 200ml /min[r=0.48, p<0.01]. In the same range of blood flow, patency duration of the patients with using their own blood vessels were longer than the patients with using vascular graft for A-V fistula. We concluded that the patency of the arteriovenous fistulae was closely correlated with the blood flow through the fistulae.

  • The effect of water flow on the growth of Gafrarium tumidum was studied in the field using open cages constructed with stainless steel net and perspex in which holes were drilled. Cages with different flows (25, 50 and 75% of the control) were made by varying the area of perspex being drilled. Reduction in flow rate was directly proportional to the undrilled area, and the mean flow rate of the different treatment groups varied from 3.12 cm/s for the 25% exposure to 12.48 cm/s for the control cages. At the end of the 3-month experiment, no significant differences in sediment characteristics were found among the treatments. Growth in shell length, shell weight and tissue dry weight was, however, positively correlated with flow rate. Percentage increases ranged from $3.0{\sim}8.3%$ for shell length, $9.9{\sim}23.1%$ for shell weight and $17.2{\sim}53.3%$ for tissue dry weight. Condition index of the clam was not significantly different among the treatments. Seston depletion effect could reduce growth in G. tumidum only when water flow was reduced to 25% of the control. G. tumidum also exhibited different responses in shell and tissue growth at low flow rates, in which shell growth continued to decrease as flow rate decreased whereas tissue growth was relatively independent of low flows at 25 and 50% of the control. It was suggested that when seston flux was reduced at slow flows, it would be a better strategy for G. tumidum to channel energy for gonad development instead of shell growth during the reproductive stage.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyzed the correlation between upper extremity function, activities of daily living, quality of life and therapeutic flow in stroke clients and identify the factors influencing therapeutic flow. Total 249 stroke patients from 13 hospitals were measure at therapist and researcher for upper extremity function, activities of daily living, therapeutic flow and quality of life. Factors that affect the quality of life correlation as s result of positively correlated with upper extremity function(r=.312, p<.001), activities of daily living(r=.605, p<.001), therapeutic flow(r=.525, p<.001). And the effect on quality of life in stroke clients variables affecting therapeutic flow(${\beta}=.344$, p<.001), activities of daily living(${\beta}=.293$, p<.05) and Time since of onset(${\beta}=.145$, p<.05) were the order of analysis. The regression model explained 35.9% of variances(F=35.736, p<.001). Therefore, it was found that therapeutic flow in stroke clients is an important factor for quality of life, future therapeutic flow study will continue to be needed.

  • It has been reported that many of the effects of digitalis glycosides could be mediated partly through the central nervous system. In this study the effects of ouabain given directly into the lateral ventricle of the brain on the renal function of the rabbit were investigated. Intraventricular ouabain elicited antidiuresis in doses ranging from 0.1 to $3\;{\mu}g$, exhibiting a rough dose-response relationship, and decreased the renal plasma flow, glomerular filtration rate and urinary excretion of sodium and potassium, concomitant with the decrease of urine flow. These decreases in urine flow, excretory rate of electrolytes significantly correlated with the decrease in renal plasma flow or glomerular filtration rate, suggesting that the antidiuresis might have been induced by the hemodynamic changes. Intravenous ouabain in a dose of $1\;{\mu}g$ did not affect the renal function. Systemic blood pressure as well as cardiac activity was not affected by the intraventricular ouabain. Effects of the intraventricular ouabain on renal function were abolished by the intravenous phentolamine-pretreatment but not affected by intraventricular phentolamine-pretreatment. Neither vasopressin infusion nor hydration did affect the renal effects of intraventricular ouabain. From these observations, it is suggested that the antidiuresis of intraventricular ouabain is induced by the increased sympathetic influence to the kidney.

  • Aeroacoustic computation of a fully-developed turbulent pipe flow at $Re_{\tau}=175$ and M = 0.1 is conducted by LES/LPCE hybrid method. The generation and propagation of acoustic waves are computed by solving the linearized perturbed compressible equations (LPCE), with acoustic source DP(x,t)/Dt attained by the incompressible large eddy simulation (LES). The computed acoustic power spectral density is closely compared with the wall shear-stress dipole source of a turbulent channel flow at $Re_{\tau}=175$. A constant decaying rate of the acoustic power spectrum, $f^{-8/5}$ is found to be related to the turbulent bursts of the correlated longitudinal structures such as hairpin vortex and their merged structures (or hairpin packets). The power spectra of the streamwise velocity fluctuations across the turbulent boundary layer indicate that the most intensive noise at ${\omega}^+$ < 0.1 is produced in the buffer layer with fluctuations of the longitudinal structures ($k_zR$ < 1.5).
