In general, a large-capacity axial flow fan is used for industrial processes or ventilation in a social overhead capital infrastructure. The main characteristics of the large axial-flow fan need a lot of electrical power consumption and operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Since the large axial flow fan consumes several hundreds to thousands kW per hour, both manufacturer and consumer are struggling to select high efficiency products for saving energy and reducing operation cost. Therefore, the performance testing should be accurately conducted in experimental equipments. The performance estimation and uncertainty of measurement of the axial-flow fan gathered from the result from nozzle shaped testing equipments certified with ANSI/AMCA standard and duct shaped testing equipment under the same experimental condition. The experimental results from both facilities have maximum 17% differences in performance evaluation and uncertainty of measurement. As considering that the differences, it is doubt about the reliability of testing result. The test was repeated with the specific term during 12 months because it is important to fully reflect the real conditions and to decide the repeatability of data. The evaluation of duct type testing facilities was failed to get an uncertainty measure. Testing results were previously published. As a series of previous paper, axial fan (∅1690 mm) and duct type testing facilities were fabricated. The purpose of fabricating testing equipment was testing an uncertainty measurement under the controlled environments.

It is important to find the effective position for cough and sputum clearance in respiratory physical therapy. The purpose of this study was to compare the changes in peak expiratory flow (PEF), forced expiratory volume in 1 second ($FEV_1$), and peak cough flow (PCF) related to functional level and measurement position in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Twenty one subjects were classified into three functional levels, and measurements was undertaken in three different measurement positions (upright sitting, $45^{\circ}$ reclining and supine). Vitalograph PEF/FEV DIARY was used to measure PEF and $FEV_1$, and Ferraris Pocket Peak was used to measure PCF. Mixed two-way analysis of variance and Bonferroni post-hoc test were used for statistical analysis. The results of the study were as follows: 1) Significant main effects for measurement position were found. 2) PEF was the highest in upright sitting, followed by $45^{\circ}$ reclining, and supine in order. 3) $FEV_1$ in upright sitting and $45^{\circ}$ reclining were significantly greater compared with that in supine. 4) PCF in upright sitting and $45^{\circ}$ reclining were significantly greater compared with that in supine. 5) No significant main effects for functional level were found in PEF, $FEV_1$, and PCF. 6) No significant functional level by measurement position interactions were found in PEF, $FEV_1$, and PCF. Therefore, it is concluded that upright sitting and $45^{\circ}$ degree reclining positions are recommended for effective cough and sputum clearance.

The flow-field of a liquid-metal system is very important for the safety analysis and the design of the steam generator of liquid-metal fast breeder reactor. Dynamic neutron radiography (DNR) is suitable for a visualization and measurement of a liquid metal flow and a two-phase flow in a metallic duct. However, the three dimensional DNR techniques is not enough to obtain the velocity information in the wide channel up to now. In this research, a high speed DNR technique was applied to visualize the heavy liquid-metal flow field in the narrow channel with the HANARO-beam facility. The images were taken with a high frame-rate neutron radiography at 250 fps and analyzed with a Particle Image Velocimetry(PIV) method. The images were compared with the results of the commercial CFX code to study the feasibility of DNR technique for the measuring the heavy liquid-metal flow field. The PIV images could discern the turbulent vortex flow in the two-dimensional narrow channel.

Many researchers have developed the measurement technique of in-cylinder flow. Recently, there are lots of studies on steady flow with different SCV geometries. In this study the flow characteristics of four-valve cylinder head were examined in a steady test rig for different SCV open ratios. Each swirl ratio of several SCV angle was quantified by swirl impulse meter and 2D-LDV measurement. The results showed that the swirl ratio was controlled between 2.3 and 3.8 based on SCV angles. The velocity distributions of in-cylinder flow field were measured by 2-D LDV test and visualized swirl and tumble flow pattern at different positions. In this engine , we found out that the swirl was dominant flow.

We investigate the ultrasonic gas flow meter for the measurement of gas volume quantity, which passing through pipe, using the transit time difference method. We have designed a receiving system of an ultrasonic signal and hardware system of a flow meter Also, we have designed an experimental system for the characteristic test and calibration of a gas flow meter system. We have developed an ultrasonic gas flow meter, which has a measurement uncertainty within $\pm$ 1.7 %. For the test, we have compared our system with a difference pressure type flow meter for a few months in the real field. Through the test, we have confirmed that our system have a good reliability and durability. Also, we have confirmed that our system follows very well the variation of gas volume quantity, which was measured by a difference pressure type flow meter.

The objective of the research is to design, manufacture and test a Mass Flow Controller(MFC) capable of measuring compressible fluid flows based on a "bucket and stop-watch"method. The basic principle is the measurement of time, where the time taken to fill and empty a bucket of known volume is measured. This method of flow measurement is a new concept when compared to a commercilized current mass flow controller. For the flow meter to be able to compete with established designs it not only must be comparable in cost and robustness, it must be very accurate and reliable as well. This device should be able to handle fluid flows in the range of 0.1ml/min to 10ml/min within an accuracy of ${\pm}$1%. A possible application for a device such as this is in electronics industry where arsenic gas is used in the production of silicon chips.

Water quality sampling surveys and continuous measurement of flow were conducted to identify wastewater flow characteristics for representative catchment of O and M treatment basins in A city. For HS-1 station representing commercial area, wastewater flow rises in the beginning of office-working hours, moves up and down within narrow range, and lasts till office-leaving hour, and falls gradually reflecting worker's returning home. However, in HS-2 station representing residential area, wastewater flow has two peaks, which are before office-going hour and after office-leaving hour. In residential area, the flow rate of weekends is higher than that of weekdays because it reflects population, being not contributed to generate wastewater during the working hours of weekdays, stay home and produce wastewater for weekends period. To determine the priority for rehabilitation of sewer system, infiltration rate was computed by dividing infiltration flow by mean diameter and total length of sewer, and HS-1 station ranked the first.

Performance tests on the 3-Dimensional Flow-Structure-Interactions-Measurement System(FSIMS) have been carried out. Experimental data obtained by the FSIMS on a floating cylinder have been used to generate a set of artificial images. Comparisons between the data obtained by the use of the artificial images and those original experimental data have been made. Another set of artificial images have also been generated based on theoretically modulated sinusoidal motions, and comparisons between the data obtained by the use of these artificial images and the theoretical ones have been carried out. It has been verified that the FSIMS has a measurement uncertainty of 0.04-0.06mm/frame for velocity vectors and 0.002-0.01mm for the cylinder's positions.
