Drilling Mud Treatment Systems are widely used for Oil Gas drilling mud circulation, horizontal directional drilling mud recycling, geothermal drilling, mining, coal exploration drilling, water well drilling. Degasser is a device used in drilling to remove gasses from drilling fluid which could otherwise form bubbles. For small amounts of entrained gas in a drilling fluid, the degasser can play a major role of removing small bubbles that a liquid film has enveloped and entrapped. As with the desander, its purpose is to remove unwanted solids from the mud system. The smaller cones allow the desilter to efficiently remove smaller diameter drill solids. In this study, a simulation study is conducted on the degasser of the facility in the Mud Treatment System to conduct a performance review on the gas separation in the mud.

LNG선의 발라스트 탱크에 해수를 유입할 때 해수에 부유하고 있는 해저면의 머드 입자가 탱크 안으로 유입되고 탱크내에 침전되는 문제가 발생한다. 탱크에서 해수를 배출 할 때에 침전된 머드를 함께 제거할 수 있도록 발라스트 탱크 내에 머드 플러싱 시스템을 적용하였다. 본 연구에서는 플러싱 시스템의 머드 제거 효과를 평가하기 위해 입자 크기 분석기를 통해 머드의 입자 크기를 측정 하였으며, 입자 크기와 전단 응력의 관계를 바탕으로 수치해석을 통해 머드의 부유 성능을 평가하였다. 탱크내 머드 플러싱 배관 시스템을 최적화하여 탱크내 머드 부유 성능을 극대화하였다.

본 논문에서는 2.4㎓ ISM 대역의 실내 환경에서 동작하는 직접 대역 확산(Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum : DSSS) 방식의 단방향 무선 송수신 시스템의 ZFE(Zero Forcing Equalizer) 다중 사용자 검출(Multi User Detection : MUD) 수신기의 성능을 평가하였다. 본 시스템은 한 사용자가 장기간의 깊은 페이드(deep fade)를 겪으므로 많은 연집 오류가 발생할 것이며, 단 방향이므로 전력 제어가 불가능하다는 취약점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 DS-CDMA 시스템은 엄격한 전력 제어가 될 수 있는 환경에서 그 성능이 보장되므로 이에 대한 해결 방법이 중요하다. 이러한 시스템의 성능을 개선시킬 수 있는 수신기로서 MUD 수신기는 엄격한 전력 제어가 요구되지 않으며 선형 등화 방식을 이용하여 다중 사용자 간섭(Multiple Access Interference : MAI)을 제거할 수 있다. 실내 무선 채널 환경 하에서 ZFE MUD 수신기와 다른 수신 방식간의 성능 비교 결과로부터 ZFE MUD 수신기가 본 시스템에 보다 적합함을 확인하였다.

해양 유정의 시추를 위한 드릴링이 진행되는 동안 원활한 드릴링 작업을 진행하기 위하여 드릴링 시스템을 순환하는 머드에 벌크가 Shear mixer을 통하여 첨가된다. 이러한 벌크 투입으로 조절된 머드의 물성치는 드릴링시스템 전반의 안정성에 영향을 주며, 머드와의 혼합이 이루어지는 Shear mixer의 성능개선은 전체 드릴링 시스템의 성능향상과 관계된다고 할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 Shear mixer내 혼상유동의 특징을 알아보기 위해 파이프형상의 관내 고체-액체 혼상유동 실험에서 측정된 고체 침전도결과(Gilles et al., 2004)를 시뮬레이션 결과와 비교검증을 수행한 후, 이를 통해 얻어진 관내 액체-고체 혼상유동 시뮬레이션 조건을 바탕으로 Shear mixer의 혼합효율을 개선시킬 수 있는 최적형상에 관한 시뮬레이션 기반 설계를 수행하였다.

Background: Liver-expressed antimicrobial peptide-2 (LEAP-2) is an important component of innate immune system in teleosts. In order to understand isoform-specific involvement and regulation of LEAP-2 genes in mud loach (Misgurnus mizolepis, Cypriniformes), a commercially important food fish, this study was aimed to characterize gene structure and expression characteristics of two paralog LEAP-2 isoforms. Results: Mud loach LEAP-2 isoforms (LEAP-2A and LEAP-2B) showed conserved features in the core structure of mature peptides characterized by four Cys residues to form two disulfide bonds. The two paralog isoforms represented a tripartite genomic organization, known as a common structure of vertebrate LEAP-2 genes. Bioinformatic analysis predicted various transcription factor binding motifs in the 5'-flanking regions of mud loach LEAP-2 genes with regard to development and immune response. Mud loach LEAP-2A and LEAP-2B isoforms exhibited different tissue expression patterns and were developmentally regulated. Both isoforms are rapidly modulated toward upregulation during bacterial challenge in an isoform and/or tissue-dependent fashion. Conclusion: Both LEAP-2 isoforms play protective roles not only in embryonic and larval development but also in early immune response to bacterial invasion in mud loach. The regulation pattern of the two isoform genes under basal and stimulated conditions would be isoform-specific, suggestive of a certain degree of functional divergence between isoforms in innate immune system in this species.

In this study, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation based on an Eulerian-Eulerian approach was used to evaluate the mixing performance of a mud agitator through the distribution of bulk particles. Firstly, the commercial CFD software Star-CCM+ was verified by performing numerical simulations of single-phase water mixing problems in an agitator with various turbulence models, and the simulation results were compared with an experiment. The standard model was selected as an appropriate turbulence model, and a grid convergence test was performed. Then, a simulation of the liquid-solid multi-phase mixing in an agitator was simulated with different multi-phase interaction models, and lift and drag models were selected. In the case of the lift model, the results were not significantly affected, but Syamlal and O'Brien's drag model showed more reasonable results with respect to the experiment. Finally, with the properly determined simulation conditions, a multi-phase flow simulation of a mud agitator was performed to predict the mixing time and spatial distribution of solid particles. The applicability of the CFD multi-phase simulation for the practical design of a mud agitator was confirmed.

In this paper, the RBF-based multiuser detector (MUD) is proposed for a multirate DS/CDMA system. The performance of RBF-based MUD is compared with that of many suboptimal multiuser detectors in terms of bit error probability. From the simulation results, it is confirmed that the RBF-based multiuser detector outperforms decorrelating detector, and achieves near-optimum performance in several situations. The results in this paper can be applied to design of MUD fur a multirate DS/CDMA system.

The drilling mud is essentially used in oil and gas development. There are several roles of using the drilling mud, such as cleaning the bottomhole, cooling and lubricating the drill bit and string, transporting the cuttings to the surface, keeping and adjusting the wellbore pressure, and preventing the collapse of the wellbore. The fragments from rocks and micro-sized bubbles generated by the high pressure are mixed in the drilling mud. The systems to separate those mixtures and to keep the uniformly maintained quality of drilling mud are required. In this study, the simulation is conducted to verify the performance of the mud tank's agitation capacity. The primary role of the mud tank is the mixing of mud at the surface with controlling the mud condition. The container type is chosen as a mud tank pursuing efficient transport and better management of equipment. The single- and two-phase simulations about the agitation in the mud tank are performed to analyze and identify the inner flow behavior. The convergence of results is obtained for the vertical- and axis-direction velocity vector fields based on the grid-dependency tests. The mixing time analysis depending on the multiphase flow conditions indicates that the utilization of a two-stepped impeller with a smaller size provides less time for mixing. This study's results are expected to be utilized as the preliminary data to develop the mixing and integrating equipment of the onshore drilling mud system.
