  • The gas jet pumps serve to preduce a vacuum or can be used as gas jet compressors. These are operated on the same principle as a steam jet vacuum pump : in the driving nozzle the pressure energy of the motive medium is converted into the kinetic energy. In the diffuser the driving jet mixes with the suction medium and the kinetic energy is reconverted into the pressure enegy. The application fields of gas jet ejectors are the evacuation of siphoning installations, the elevation of liquids, the production of vacuum filters, the vacuum supporting airlift system, the evacuation of the suction line of centrifugal pumps and the ventilation of the dangerous gases to the atmosphere. The performance of gas jet ejector is influenced strongly to velocity coefficient of motive nozzle, the distance between the motive outlet to the diffuser inlet and the dimensions of diffuser. This study is performed for the computer aided design of gas jet ejectors in future. Through the present experiments, it is known that the velocity coefficient of the motive air nozzle ranges from 0.91 to 0.95 and the maximum efficiency of gas jet ejector is 24.6%.

  • This paper presents the performance characteristic of a Francis hydro turbine with an inline casing. This turbine is designed for city water supply system. Due to large changes in ground elevation with high points and low points, some systems may experience larger-than-normal required pressures in areas with low ground elevations. One way to dissipate these excess pressures is by the use of an inline-turbine instead of an inline-pressure reducing valve. For best applicability and minimal space consumption, the turbine is designed with an inline casing instead of the common spiral casing. As a characteristic of inline casing, the flow accesses to the runner in the radial direction, showing a low efficiency. The installation of vanes improves the internal flow and gives the positive encouragement to the output power. For the power transmission to the outside of the turbine casing from the runner axis, a belt passage is designed in the inline casing, as its influence, the region after the belt passage shows a relatively low output power. The clearance gap in the runner side space is considered, in which a small volume of flow is contracted into the clearance gap, forming the leakage flow. The leakage flow leads to a decrease in the efficiency.

  • Performance and efficiency of deep seabed collector is a primary factor for feasibility of commercial deep ocean mining. The efficiency of manganese nodules collector depends on vehicle mobility relative to undulating seafloor and is attributed pickup head to keep altitude and elevation of it against seafloor. For this reason, motion control of pickup head relative to the changing deep-sea topography and other disturbances is of particular importance in design of pickup device. The concept of design axiom is applied to a pickup device of hybrid type in order to evaluate the concept design. Kinematic analysis conducted in absolute Cartesian coordinates gives position, velocity, and acceleration of the hydraulic cylinders which enable the pickup head to keep the preset optimal distance from seafloor. Inverse dynamic analysis provides the driving forces of hydraulic cylinders and the reaction forces at each joint. Design sensitivity analysis is performed in order to investigate the effects of possible design variables on the change of the maximum strokes of hydraulic cylinders. The direct differentiation method is used to obtain the design sensitivity coefficients.

  • The objective of this study is to the test applicability of SLURP on Soyanggang-dam watershed. The area of this watershed is $2,694km^2$ and mean elevation and slope is 650 m and $23^{\circ}$ respectively. Topographical parameters were derived from DEM using TOPAZ and SLURPAZ. NDVI was calculated from multi-temporal NOAA/AVHRR images. The daily meteorological data and hydrograph during $1999\~2001$ were selected for model calibration and performance tests. Weather elements (dew-point temperature, solar radiation, maximum and minimum temperature, relative humidity) were required from the S meteorological stations near the study area. The model parameters of each land cover class were optimized by sensitivity analysis and SCE-UA method. Runoff rate shows $49.33\%\~64.06\%$. Simulated results during 4 years were estimated by Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency and WMO volume error. Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency shows $0.61\~0.75$ and WMO volume error shows $6.1\%-18.8\%$.

  • Recently, the old surveying method for acquiring surveying-geo information results had a low economic efficiency and a low dependence of precision because it took much times and high costs. So, we acquired law data by execution of control surveying through Static positioning of DGPS(Ashtech). It is computed plainmetric(X, Y) positioning through postprocessing by Prism S/W. And we computed height(Z) through control surveying by ring-closed leveling surveying. After control surveying execution, we built DEM(Digital Elevation Model) using LDT S/W and accuracy 3D detail surveying by EDM(Electronic Distance Measurement) surveying. The purpose of this study was to yield automated digital mapping and the automated amount of materials using ahead data. The conclusions were as follows; First, we built the automated amount of materials system and got high efficiency about personnel, times and precision. Second, when, people precisely positioned on railroads of a high-speed railroad and used GPS surveying, the result was permitted. Finally, it was possible to draw automated profile and cross-section using the 3D terrain model build with the DEM technique.

  • All modem, aerospace gas turbines must operate with hot stage gas temperature several hundreds of degrees hotter than the melting temperatures of the materials used in their construction. Complicated cooling schemes need to be employed in the combustor walls and In the high pressure turbine stages. Internal passages are cast or machined into the hot sections of aero-gas turbine engines and air from the compressor is used for cooling. In many cases, the cooling system is engineered to utilize jets of high velocity air, which impinge on the internal surfaces of the components. They are divided by Impinging cooling method and Vortex cooling method. Specially, Research of new cooling system(Vortex cooling method) that overcome inefficiency of film cooling and limitation of space.

  • In this paper, we describe a pointing accuracy establishment and efficiency measurement of 13.7 m antenna for observing cosmic radio wave which is in the first stage just after finishing its installation. The initial stage of pointing model, 1 and 2 were set up with the observational data of Sun and Moon which are large in visual diameter and also strong in radio intensity. Based on this model, model 3 and 4 were established within the available operational range, i.e., 3.8" in azimuth deviation, 10.5" in elevation deviation, with the observational data of SiO maser source which is a point source and distributed in overall sky. Both apeture efficiency anhd beam efficiency were measured by observing Venus whose brightness temperature is well-known. The resulting corrected efficiencies were 35% and 50% respectively.

  • In this paper, we propose a clustering algorithm for efficient energy management of sensor network consisted of sensor nodes that have restricted energy to solve these problem. Proposed algorithm improves energy efficiency by controlling sensing power. And it has distinctive feature that is applied in various network environment. The performance evaluation result shows that the energy efficiency is improved by 5% in the case of all sensor node fixed and by $10{\sim}15%$ in the case of all sensor node moving. It is confirmed through experiment process that the proposed algorithm brings energy efficiency ratio improvement of $5{\sim}15%$ more than the existing algorithm. Proposed algorithm derived an upper bound on the energy efficiency for Ubiquitous Computing environment that have various network environment that is with ZigBee technology of IEEE 802.15.4 bases. Also, we can blow bring elevation for lifetime of sensor network greatly for lifetime of sensor node as is small. And we think that may expand practical use extent of a sensor network technology more in fast changed network environment.
