This paper presents the temperature distribution and deformation characteristics of O-ring groove geometry in which is strongly related the sealing performance of pressure vessels. A working gas in pressure vessel may be heated by a heater and pressurized by a gas compressor. Thus, the pressure vessel should keep high Pressure and temperature for a limited working period. For these operation conditions, the working gas in pressure vessels should not leak to the air by two O-rings with a rectangular groove. The FEM computed results indicate that the thermal and mechanical properties of metal sealing material is very important for stopping a leakage of hot gas in a vessel. Based on the results, high thermal conductive and low mechanical strength material is recommended as a metal sealing one. This may improve the sealing characteristics of O-ring sealing mechanism with a rectangular groove, which reduces the sealing gap between a flange and a cylinder and the width of O-ring groove.

Thermal analyses have been performed to study the effect of location of fuel ring and thermal barrier coatings in regenerative cooling channels in a full-scale combustor. For the effective cooling, the fuel ring has better be installed near axial location of the low expansion ratio and low heat flux, and branching of cooling channels is preferable. Also, the radiative cooled nozzle extension is thought to be reasonable for the cooling of combustor walls. Among the possible coatings, $Y_2O_3$ stabilized $ZrO_2$ coating and Ni/Cr coating have been adopted. Compared with Ni/Cr coating which has high oxidation resistance, $Y_2O_3$ stabilized $ZrO_2$ coating, one of ceramic coatings is found to be much effective to sustain the thermal survivability of combustion walls.

This paper is to develop the sensing system for opening-force measurement such as O-Ring muscular meridian. We designed to overcome the functional limit that the conventional force-sensor can measure just the closing-force. Therefore, the new sensor can meet a variety of application as well as O-Ring test. The structure of the new sensor is an actuator-type system using an electromagnet. That is made up of mechanical system, electromagnet, current transformer and computer interface circuit. Driving software and user interface program of the new sensor system also is explained in this paper.

Let $K={\mathbb{Q}}({\alpha})$ be a cubic field where ${\alpha}$ is an algebraic integer such that $disc_K({\alpha})$ is square-free. In this paper we will classify the structure of the unit group of the quotient ring ${\mathcal{O}}_K/A$ for each non-zero ideal A of ${\mathcal{O}}_K$.

For a positive integer N divisible by 4, let ${\mathcal{O}}^1_N({\mathbb{Q}})$ be the ring of weakly holomorphic modular functions for the congruence subgroup ${\Gamma}^1(N)$ with rational Fourier coefficients. We present explicit generators of the ring ${\mathcal{O}}^1_N({\mathbb{Q}})$ over ${\mathbb{Q}}$ in terms of both Fricke functions and Siegel functions, from which we are able to classify all Fricke families of such level N.

The stress behavior analysis of a-rings and packing for a LPG filling unit has been presented using a finite element analysis technique by non-linear MSC/MARC program. The sealing performance and endurance of a-rings and packing are affected by working conditions such as filling pressure, friction coefficient, compression ratio, and material properties. The elastomeric polymers of O-rings and packing are nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), which are selected as proper materials of a-rings and packing based on the stress analysis results. The calculated FEM results showed that the proper material of O-ring is NBR as a secondary sealing component and the recommended material of packing is PTFE as a primary sealing unit during a LPG filling process.

This study presents sealing behavior and endurance safety of V-grooved o-rings as functions of a strain, compression stress, and contact normal stress using a FEM technique. The FEM results on the sealing behavior and endurance safety show that the maximum strain, maximum compression stress, and maximum contact normal stress of V-grooved o-rings are approximately 1.2 times higher than those of conventional solid o-rings. This is why that an o-ring has a V-groove in the center between two overlapped circles, which is very effective in sealing for ball valves, pressure vessels, and gas equipment. And the extrusion failure in V-grooved o-rings does not take place under an increased gas pressure due to a V-groove. This may extend sealing life compared with that of a conventional solid o-ring.
