An experiment has been performed using a facility, which simulates the safety depressurization system (SDS) and in-containment refueling water storage tank (IRWST) of APR1400, an advanced PWR being developed in Korea, to investigate the dynamic load resulting from the blowdown of steam from a steam generator through a sparser. The influence of the key parameters, such as air mass, steam pressure, submergence, valve opening time, and pool temperature, on frequency and peak toads was investigated. The blowdown phenomenon was analyzed to find out the real cause of the initiation of bubble oscillation and discrepancy in frequencies between the experiment and calculation by conventional equation for bubble oscillation. The cause of significant damping was discussed and is presumed to be the highly tortuous flow path around bubble. The Rayleigh-Plesset equation, which is modified by introducing method of image, reasonably reproduces the bubble oscillation in a confined tank. Right after the completion of air discharge the steam discharge immediately follows and it condenses abruptly to provide low-pressure pocket. It may contribute to the negative maximum being greater than positive maximum. The subsequently discharging steam does not play as at the driving force anymore.

Objectives : We developed and proposed a guideline for safety and performance assessment of electric cupping apparatus(Class 2 medical device). Methods : We drafted the guideline for safety and performance assessment of electric cupping apparatus by referring the existing standards and guideline, based on online questionnaire for Korean medical doctors and measurement data from commercially available products. Physical dimension of cups and inner vacuum pressure were acquired for the measurement in order to achieve the purposes. Results : This guideline only can be applied to electric cupping apparatus for enhancing blood circulation by employing negative pressure generated by electricity. Seven items of appearance and label, operation test of pump, variation test of input electricity, vacuum level test, vacuum sustain test, cup-size dependent test, noise level test are suggested for evaluation subjects and methods required for electric cupping devices. Requirements for the design and development of electric cupping devices are suggested: vacuum level indicator, vacuum generation rate, pressure control, valve detachment stability, cup comparability, safety measure, surge protection, user friendliness, instruction for use (IFU). Conclusions : We proposed a guideline for safety and performance assessment of electric cupping apparatus to improve the quality of relating products and aid the commercialization of them, by aiming higher industrial competitiveness of the medical device sectors in Korea. Discussion with related institutes such as industry, academy and government is further required. Public hearings also need to be held prior to the establishment of a final guideline and standard.

In this study, a numerical analysis was performed to simulate the thermal-hydraulic response of the secondary side of a steam generator(SG) model equipped with an orifice-type SG outlet flow restrictor to a main steam line break(MSLB) at a pressurized water reactor(PWR) plant. The SG analysis model includes the SG upper steam space and the part of the main steam pipe between the SG outlet and the broken pipe end. By comparing the numerical calculation results for the present SG model to those obtained for a simple SG model having no flow restrictor, the effects of the flow restrictor on the thermal-hydraulic response of SG to the MSLB were investigated.

Sprinklers are a necessary device for the early suppression of fires to prevent large fires. The installation has been obligatory for certain buildings recently through the digestion method. In an aging building, it is difficult to find sprinklers, because of their significant cost, long installation times, and they require installation by experts. That is why we are able to install all, was designed with enough independent integrated sprinklers with fire-extinguishing capabilities. The designed sprinklers are fitted with a conventional sprinkler head in a container of 20cm * 20cm * 10cm. Inside the container and potassium carbonate, which warms the rubber material and the plate line by pressing the potassium carbonate, the line weight is a 5kg pressing plate at the entrance at the pressure of 0.5Mpa when operating. The glass sprinkler valve blocking the entrance at about $68^{\circ}C$ is operated open. At this time, the potassium out of the digestive fire to combustible materials and heat off a chain reaction.

This paper presents a yaw moment control based on estimated mass for manual-shift commercial vehicles. In yaw moment controller, parameter uncertantiy of vehicle mass is important because the desired yaw moment depends on vehicle parameter. However, in the case of commercial vehicle, the weight of the loaded vehicle is more than twice as much as compared to the unloaded vehicle. The proposed algorithm estimates the vehicle mass by using the longitudinal dynamic and gear shifting characteristics. The estimated mass is used to adaptively modify the vehicle parameters. In addition, this paper estimates the chamber pressure of a pneumatic brake and generates the target yaw moment through on/off valve control. MATLAB/Simulink and Trucksim were performed under sine with dwell test. The results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm improves the lateral and rollover stability.

배경: 저자들은 ATS 기계 판막의 10년간의 임상결과 및 판막 관련 합병증을 조사하여 해당 판막의 안정성을 평가하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 1995년 7월부터 2005년 3월까지 ATS 인공판막으로 수술을 시행 받은 305명의 환자들을 대상으로 하였다. 환자들의 평균 나이는 $49.8{\pm}11.7$세였고 남자가 140명(45.6%)이었다. 판막 대치술의 원인으로는 류마티스성 판막질환이 207예(67.4%), 판막의 퇴행성 변화가 57예(18.6%, 이엽성 대동맥 판막 포함), 이전에 이식한 판막의 기능부전이 23예(7.5%),감염성 심내막염이 14예(4.6%) 등이었다. 시행했던 수술로는 대동맥판막 치환술이 72예(23.5%), 승모판막 치환술이 156예(50.8%), 이중판막 치환술(AVR+MVR)이 63예(20.5%), 삼첨판막 치환술을 포함한 경우가 16예(5.2%)였다. 결과: 수술 관련 사망은 9예 있었다(사망률; 2.9%). 추적 관찰 기간은 $56.5{\pm}34.0(0{\sim}115)$개월이었고 누적 추적 관찰률은 96.4%였으며, 이 중 9명의 환자가 만기 사망하였다. Kaplan-Meier 생존 분석을 이용한 5년과 10년의 통계 결과들은 생존율이 $94.9{\pm}1.3%,\;91.2{\pm}2.3%$였으며, 판막과 관련된 사건이 없을 확률은 $90.8{\pm}2.0%,\;86.9{\pm}3.2%$였다. 판막과 관련된 합병증으로는 출혈 관련 합병증이 16예로 가장 많았고, 혈전색전증 관련 합병증이 6예, 인공 판막 심내막염이 3예, 판막 변연부 누출이 1예 등이었다. 수술 후 환자들의 NYHA class는 유의하게 호전되었다(p<0.05). 심초음파로 측정한 수술 전후 심장 크기에 있어서는 좌심방과 확장기말 및 수축기말의 좌심실 크기 모두에 있어서 수술 후 유의한 감소를 확인할 수 있었다(p<0.01). 대동맥 판막 크기에 따른 판막 전후의 압력차에 관한 분석에서는 19 mm와 21 mm의 판막을 사용한 경우가 그보다 큰 판막을 사용한 경우에 비하여 유의하게 큰 것을 확인할 수 있었다(p<0.001, p<0.001). 결론: 10년간의 사용결과 ATS 인공판막은 우수한 혈역학적 결과와 함께 낮은 판막과 관련된 합병증의 빈도를 나타내었다. ATS 기계 판막은 임상적으로 비교적 안전하게 사용할 수 있는 판막이라고 생각된다.

A series of tests dedicated to station blackout (SBO) accident scenarios have been recently performed at the $Prim{\ddot{a}}rkreislauf-Versuchsanlage$ (primary coolant loop test facility; PKL) facility in the framework of the OECD/NEA PKL-3 project. These investigations address current safety issues related to beyond design basis accident transients with significant core heat up. This work presents a detailed analysis using the best estimate thermal-hydraulic code TRACE (v5.0 Patch4) of different SBO scenarios conducted at the PKL facility; failures of high- and low-pressure safety injection systems together with steam generator (SG) feedwater supply are considered, thus calling for adequate accident management actions and timely implementation of alternative emergency cooling procedures to prevent core meltdown. The presented analysis evaluates the capability of the applied TRACE model of the PKL facility to correctly capture the sequences of events in the different SBO scenarios, namely the SBO tests H2.1, H2.2 run 1 and H2.2 run 2, including symmetric or asymmetric secondary side depressurization, primary side depressurization, accumulator (ACC) injection in the cold legs and secondary side feeding with mobile pump and/or primary side emergency core coolant injection from the fuel pool cooling pump. This study is focused specifically on the prediction of the core exit temperature, which drives the execution of the most relevant accident management actions. This work presents, in particular, the key improvements made to the TRACE model that helped to improve the code predictions, including the modeling of dynamical heat losses, the nodalization of SGs' heat exchanger tubes and the ACCs. Another relevant aspect of this work is to evaluate how well the model simulations of the three different scenarios qualitatively and quantitatively capture the trends and results exhibited by the actual experiments. For instance, how the number of SGs considered for secondary side depressurization affects the heat transfer from primary side; how the discharge capacity of the pressurizer relief valve affects the dynamics of the transient; how ACC initial pressure and nitrogen release affect the grace time between ACC injection and subsequent core heat up; and how well the alternative feeding modes of the secondary and/or primary side with mobile injection pumps affect core quenching and ensure stable long-term core cooling under controlled boiling conditions.

In a lithium-ion battery which is being used in many portable electronic goods, electrolyte is disaggregated and then the gas is happened when electric charging volt is over the 4.5V. So, the pressure on the safety valve is increased and electrolyte is leaked out in the cell. It leads to the risk of explosion. On the other hand, in the case which the battery is discharged excessively, the negative pole is damaged and the performance of the battery is deteriorated. The protection module of a lithium-ion battery is used for preventing such risk and the inspection system is needed to check the performance of such protection module. In this research, a PC-based auto inspection system is developed for the inspection of a battery protection module using Dallas chipset. In the inspection system, AVRl28 chip is used as a controller and the communication protocol is developed for the data communication between the protection module and the AVR128 chip. And GPIB interface is used for the control of measuring devices. Also, MMI environment is developed using LabView for convenient monitoring by the tester.
