Pipe cooling method is widely used for reduction of hydration heat and control of cracking in mass concrete structures. However, in order to effectively apply pipe cooling systems to concrete structure, the coefficient of flow convection relating the thermal transfer between inner stream of pipe and concrete must be estimated. In this study, a device measuring the coefficient of flow convection is developed. Since a variation of thermal distribution caused by pipe cooling has a direct effect in internal forced flows, the developed testing device is based on the internal forced flow concept. Influencing factors on the coefficient of flow convection are mainly flow velocity, pipe diameter and thickness, and pipe material. finally a prediction model of the coefficient of flow convection is proposed using experimental results from the developed device. According to the proposed prediction model, the coefficient of flow convection increases with increase in flow velocity and decreases with increase in pipe diameter and thickness. Also, the coefficient of flow convection is largely affected by the type of pipe materials.

There are 4 CANDU6 type reactors operating at Wolsong site. For fuelling operation of certain fuel channels (with flow less than 21.5 kg/s) a FARE flow Assist Ram Extension) device is used. During the refuelling operation, two remote controlled F/Ms (Fuelling Machines) are attached to a designated fuel channel and carry out refuelling job. The upstream F/M inserts new fuel bundles into the fuel channel while the downstream F/M discharges spent fuel bundles. In order to assist fuelling operation of channels that has lower coolant How rate, the FARE device is used instead of F/M C-ram to push the fuel bundle string. The FARE device is essentially a How restricting element that produces enough drag force to push the fuel bundle string toward downstream F/M. Channels that require the use of FARE device for refuelling are located along the outside perimeter of reactor. This paper presents the FARE device design feature, steady state hydraulic and operational characteristics and behavior of the device when coupled with fuel bundle string during fuelling operation. The study showed that the steady state performance of FARE device meets the design objective that was confirmed by downstream F/M C-ram force to be positive.

A cost-saving feeding rate contro method for a batch reaction process is proposed by reconfigurating the flow rate control loop where the feeding rate is estimated by differentiating weight measurement. While the existing control methods require either a flow rate measurement device or a flow rate estimator, the proposed method is devised not to require neither of these facilities by directly controlling the tank weight with a time-varying set point. Experimental evaluation in a pilot-scale unit shows that the proposed method can significantly reduce the actuator hunting of the existing method where the flow rate is estimated by differentiating the weight measurement.

The load bus voltage is controlled by not only using several control device but also generation bus voltage adjustment. This paper deals with a load bus voltage control problem which used optimization and load flow technique. The usage of proposed control algorithm is verified through the comparison with normal load flow on the IEEE 14 sample system. The proposed control algorithm can be used to optimal decision of position and capacity for voltage control device.

Recently advancing mobile communication tools and I.T industry, semiconductor device is requested more integrated, faster operation time and more scaled-down. Because of these reasons semiconductor device is requested multilayer interconnection. For the multilayer interconnection chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) becomes one of the most useful process in semiconductor manufacturing process. In this experiment, we focus on understand the characterize and improve the CMP technology by control of slurry flow rate. Consequently, we obtain that optimal flow rate of slurry is 170ml/min, since optimal conditions are less chemical flow and performance high with good selectivity to Ta. If we apply this results to copper CMP process. it is thought that we will be able to obtain better yield.

In this study, a passive control using a boat-tail device is conducted for a three-dimensional car model in ground proximity. We consider various boat-tails and investigate the mechanism of drag reduction by them. By varying the length and slant angle of boat-tail, we obtain drag reductions up to 40%. From the oil-surface flow visualization and hot-wire measurement, the drag reduction by the boat-tail is characterized by the shear-layer instability and reattachment on the boat-tail, forming a small separation bubble at the upstream part of boat-tail surface, resulting in the delay of main separation and drag reduction. At high slant angles, the flow fully separates and drag is nearly same as that of no control.

As a part of study on automatic control system for green houses, an automatic irrigation system was developed by using microcomputer. For the study, gypsum block was used as a sensing device of soil moisture and its data was designed to transfer to microcomputer through A/D converter. Also, software which be able to control the irrigation time and flow rate by the solenoid valve was developed. This system was tested by using practical data and the following results were summarized. 1. Since the gypsum was very accurate in addition with chiep and easy to manufacture, it turned out to be a very good device to detect the soil moisture in this system. 2. Also, solenoid valve was very excellent device for controlling the water flow rate since its control error is less then 1% when the irrigation time is over 100 seconds.

An experimental study was performed to investigate characteristics of an inverter driven water-to-water refrigeration system with a variation of compressor frequencies and expansion devices. The frequency of a compressor varied from 30Hz to 75Hz, and performance of the systems applying three different expansion devices such as capillary tube, thermostatic expansion valve(TXV), and electronic expansion valve(EEV) were measured. The load conditions were altered by varying the temperature of the secondary fluid entering condenser and evaporator with a constant flow rate. When the test conditions were deviated from the standard value(rated value), TXV and EEV showed better performance than capillary tube due to optimum control of mass flow rate and superheat. In the present study, it was observed that the variable area expansion device had better performance than constant area expansion device in an inverter refrigeration system due to active control of flow area with a change of compressor frequency and load conditions.

A numerical analysis of a turbulent flow with a 'large-eddy breakup device(LEBU)' was performed to investigate the influence of the device on the drag of underwater vehicle using commercial CFD code, FLUENT. In the present study, the vehicle drag was decomposed to skin-friction coefficient(C_f) and pressure coefficient(C_p). The variation of the vehicle C_f and C_p were observed with changing location of the device and Reynolds number. As a result, the device decreased the vehicle C_f because it suppressed the turbulent characteristics behind the device. The larger Reynolds number, the higher reduction effect when the device was placed in front part of, and near the vehicle. On the other hand, the device increased/decreased the vehicle C_p with increasing/decreasing turbulent kinetic energy at recirculating flow region behind the vehicle. The total drag change by the device was caused by C_p rather than C_f.

Automatic flow control system composed by hardware and software was designed and fabricated to be used as teaching tool of feedback control theory in university experimental class. This system includes hardwares like data acquisition board, flow measuring device, transmitters, and the pneumatic valve, and software like LabView program for the monitoring and control of flow rates. The system was designed as the student can see the control effect of not only set point but also disturbance changes. Also the LabView program was composed for the calculation of controller parameters of both Ziegler-Nichols and Cohen-Coon tuning. The students can apply both tuning constants and compare the control performances. This system will provide the easy way for the students to understand the function and specification of control hardwares, and to raise the programing ability of control software.
