The performance of cooling tower is dependent on the thermal performance of the packings. It's assessed by heat transfer rate and fan power. In this study, new packing was developed for application in compact type cross-flow cooling tower. The packing characteristic curve and the pressure drop curve were obtained by measuring packing characteristic values and pressure drops of small sized filler in comparison to existing mid-large sized filler. The heat transfer characteristics on small sized filler are about 66% higher than existing mid-large sized filler. The pressure drop characteristics on small sized filler are about two times of the pressure drop characteristics on existing mid-large sized filler.

본 연구에서는, 혈관 내 폐 보조장치를 설계할 때 혈액의 압력손실에 대한 영향을 받지 않는 최적의 설계조건을 찾기 위하여 압력손실을 예측할 수 있는 관계식을 유도하고자 하였다. 정맥 내경의 직경을 3 cm로 고정하고 삽입되는 중공사 개수의 변화에 따른 압력손실을 측정하였으며 실험에 의하여 얻어진 압력손실과 장치의 전면면적과의 상관관계를 curve fitting을 통하여 유도하였고, 유도되어진 관계식을 이용하여 정맥 내에 삽입되는 중공사 개수의 변화에 따른 압력손실을 예측하였다. 그리고 실험을 통하여 예측되어진 값과 비교 검토하여 유사성을 찾고자 하였다. 실험결과 장치에서 액체 유속의 변화에 따라 압력손실은 2차 함수 형태로 변화됨을 알 수 있었다. 또한 장치의 전면면적이 감소하면 압력손실은 증가하였고 충진율이 증가하면 압력손실도 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 장치 내에서의 압력손실에 대한 관계식을 장치의 전면면적과 충진율의 함수로 유도할 수 있었으며, 관계식에 의하여 압력손실을 예측할 수 있었다. 또한, 실험에 의한 압력손실과 비교하였을 때 유사한 경향성을 보여 줌으로써 압력손실 예측의 신뢰성을 얻을 수 있었다.

To seek the fan operating point on a cooling system with fans, it is very important to determine the system impedance and it has been usually examined with the fan tester(wind tunnel) based on ASHRAE standard and AMCA standard. This leads to a large investment in time and cost, because it could not be executed until the system is made actually. Therefore it is necessary to predict the system impedance curve through numerical analysis so that we could reduce the measurement effort. This paper presents how the system impedance curve (pressure drop curve) is computed by CFD in substitute for experiment. In reverse order to the experimental principle of the fan tester, pressure difference was adopted first as inlet and outlet boundary conditions of the system and then flow rate was calculated.

When a front head of train enters a tunnel at a high speed, compression wave is generated at tunnel entrance due to the confinement effect and propagated along the tunnel with sound of speed. The propagated compression wave is reflected at tunnel exit due to abrupt pressure change at passage. The reflected wave is expansion pressure wave. And when the rear head of train goes through the tunnel entrance, another expansion pressure wave is generated and propagated along the tunnel. The pressure drop occurs seriously around train when the two expansion pressure waves come cross on train in the tunnel. In order to reduce the pressure drop, the compression wave front must be controlled because the intensity and magnitude of pressure drop is nearly proportional to that of compression wave at tunnel entrance. This study relates to reduction of the pressure wave gradient with respect to tunnel entrance shape change with various kind of angle and rounding. The results show characteristics of wave propagation in tunnel, usefulness of characteristic curve to estimate proper time domain size in numerical study and measuring time in actual experiment. Also rounding is contributed to improve pressure wave front even if its radius is very small at tunnel entrance. In order to improve of pressure wave front at tunnel entrance, proper angle is prefered to rounding with big radius and an angle of around 14$^{\circ}$ is recommended according to this simulations, And it is expected to reduce additional pressure drop in tunnel when the location and the size of the internal space for attendant equipment are considered in advance.

This paper is an experimental study on the performance characteristic with a variation of capillary diameter and length. The performance characteristic of a refrigeration system is predicted that it is occurring changes of flow pattern and pressure drop in a capillary tube because of reduction of capillary diameter 0.74 to 0.6 mm. The difference between experimental results and analytical results is mainly caused by values of friction factor for using to calculate pressure drop through a small diameter capillary tube under 0.74mm. The experimental equation is derived from capillary tube test data using curve fitting method.

A cyclone design concept named Convex cyclone was developed to reduce pressure losses. Contrary to conventional cylinder-on-con type cyclone, inner wall of Convex cyclone are defined with a continuous curve and it has convex shape body. The discontinuity of inner diameter variation rate of cylinder-on-con type cyclone cause additional pressure loss. Continuous wall of Convex cyclone prevent additional pressure loss. In order to verify Convex cyclone design concept, we make a comparative experiments between Stairmand HE and Convex cyclone. Experimental Convex cyclone designed based on Stairmand HE model, and inner wall are defined with circular arch. The experimental result clearly shows that Convex cyclone can achieve maximum 50% pressure loss reduction with a few percent of collection efficiency drop. In addition, the experimental results indicated the existence of optimum convexity, minimum pressure loss, of cyclone wall.

A theoretical model for predicting the capability curve of cellulose acetate filter is derived. The pressure drop is expressed as a function of the filter dimensions, the tow fiber characteristics, the filter weight, the fluid flow rate, and a filter fiber factor. Where, the filter fiber factor is affected by the distribution of the tow fibers within the filter, the relative orientations of the tow fibers, and their cross-sectional shapes. The minimum and maximum fraction of solids in capability curves determined from experimental data. Also, the filter fiber factor is expressed as a function of the filter length, tow fiber length, and tow fiber diameter. Capability curves predicted by the suggested model in this work correspond well with capability curves by experimental data.

This paper presents the flow characteristics of a ball valve used for a gas pipeline. Understanding of the internal flow of a ball valve is an important to analyze the physical phenomena of the valve. Present experimental study was performed by IEC 60534-2-3, the international standard for an industrial control valve testing procedure. Pressure measured at upstream and downstream of the valve, flow-rate and gas temperature passing the inside of the gas pipeline were measured with respect to valve opening rates. Throughout the experimental measurement of the ball valve, empirical equation of the pressure drop between the ball valve according to the mass flow rates is successively obtained using a polynomial curve fitting method. In addition, flow coefficient for determining the valve capacity is also analyzed with respect to valve opening rates using the curve fitting method.
