A collection efficiency of cyclone is influenced by cut-size and slope of grade efficiency curve. It has been recognized that the collection efficiency is improved when the cut-size is reduced. However, effects of the slope have never been studied so far. In this study, we analyze a relationship between slope of grade efficiency and collection efficiency in two-stage cyclones. In single stage cyclones, higher slope cyclones have high efficiency. On the contrary to single stage cyclone, collection efficiency of two-stage cyclone have the maximum value when the first cyclone has a lower slope and second cyclone is high.

The performance of small cyclone is analysed by an experiment for the purpose of developing a bag-less vacuum cleaner. For the high collection efficiency and low pressure loss cyclone, the effect of cyclone inlet feature must be well understood. Four types of the helical inlet are considered to compare with the normal tangential inlet, and also various inlet velocities are used to each inlet type. Based on the reference dimension, each type of inlet shows the changes of the grade efficiency and pressure loss which determine the cyclone quality. The results show that the helical inlet has the smaller cut-size but bigger pressure loss than the tangential inlet. And the degree of opening area influences factors of cyclone performance. As the inlet velocity is increased, the cut-size becomes smaller and the pressure loss becomes bigger of each cyclone. Further studies are required to understand the optimized helical inlet of cyclone.

The purpose of this study is to numerically evaluate the collection performance of an ultra-small Lapple cyclone separator for 1~10 ㎛ particles introduced at flow rate of 10 L/min. The numerical evaluation reveals that a static pressure drop occurs more dominantly inside of the cyclone separator than at the inlet and the vortex finder. Also a fluid flow in the cyclone separator is confirmed to have a helical structure heading upward in the center of cyclone separator and downward in the vicinity of wall. The investigation on dust collection efficiency of the Lapple cyclone separator shows that particles of 4~8 ㎛ diameters are collected at very lower efficiency than other sizes. Then, the cut-point diameter of the cyclone separator is 1.48 ㎛.

Background: This study used Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) pancreatic cancer data to identify predictive models and potential socio-economic disparities in pancreatic cancer outcome. Materials and Methods: For risk modeling, Kaplan Meier method was used for cause specific survival analysis. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov's test was used to compare survival curves. The Cox proportional hazard method was applied for multivariate analysis. The area under the ROC curve was computed for predictors of absolute risk of death, optimized to improve efficiency. Results: This study included 58,747 patients. The mean follow up time (S.D.) was 7.6 (10.6) months. SEER stage and grade were strongly predictive univariates. Sex, race, and three socio-economic factors (county level family income, rural-urban residence status, and county level education attainment) were independent multivariate predictors. Racial and socio-economic factors were associated with about 2% difference in absolute cause specific survival. Conclusions: This study s found significant effects of socio-economic factors on pancreas cancer outcome. These data may generate hypotheses for trials to eliminate these outcome disparities.

This paper discusses a methodology where an integrated modelling framework is used to quantify the risk derived from anthropic activities on habitats and species. To achieve this purpose, a tool comprising the Delft3D and HABITAT model, was applied in the Yeongsan river. Delft3D effectively simulated the operational condition and flow of weirs in river. In accuracy evaluation of the Delft3D-FLOW, the Bias, Pbias, Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE), and Index of Agreement (IOA) were used, and the result was evaluated as grade above 'Satisfactory'. The HABITAT calculated Habitat Suitability Value (HSV) for the following eight species: mammal, fish, aquatic plant, and benthic macroinvertebrate. An Area was defined as a suitable habitat if the HSV was larger than 0.5. HABITAT was judged accurately by measuring the Correct Classification rate (CCR) and the area under the ROC curve (AUC). For benthic macroinvertebrate, the CCR and AUC were 77% and 0.834, respectively, at thresholds of 0.017 and 4 inds/m² for HSV and individuals per unit area. This meant that the HABITAT model accurately predicted the appearance of the benthic macroinvertebrates by approximately 77% and that the probability of false alarms was also very low. As a result of evaluating the suitability of habitats, in the Yeongsan river, if the annual "lowest level" (Seungchon weir: 2.5 EL.m/ Juksan weir: -1.35 EL.m) was maintained, the average habitat improvement effect of 6.5%P compared to the 'reference' scenario was predicted. Consequently, it was demonstrated that the integrated modelling framework for habitat suitability assessment is able to support the remedy aquatic ecological management.
