Two-phase flow through a T-junction has been studied by numerous researchers so far. The dividing characteristics of the gas and liquid phases at the T-junction are very complicated due to a lot of related variables. The prediction models have been suggested by using experimental data for a specific condition or working fluid. But, they showed the application limitation for the most of the other conditions or fluids. Since most of them are applicable for their own experimental range, the generalized model for the wide range of conditions and fluids is needed. Even though it's not available now, some of the models developed for air-water flow at a T-junction might be applicable for the part of refrigerants with some modifications. Especially, for the two-phase flow of refrigerants at the T-junction, very few studies have been performed. Further experimental study is required to be performed for the wide range of test conditions and fluids to predict properly the two-phase flow distribution and phase separation through the T-junction.

본 논문에서는 T-접합선로의 집중소자 등가회로를 고려한 저역통과 여파기를 제안하였다. 일반적인 저역통과 여파기 설계 시 발생하는 T-접합선로의 특성에 따른 주파수 변이 특성을 해결하기 위해 T-접합선로 등가회로의 소자 값을 구하는 수식을 유도 하였다. 또한, 전자장 시뮬레이터(HFSS)를 이용하여 T-접합선로를 디임베딩하였다. 이로써 선로의 임피던스 허수값들이 일치되게 하여 T-접합선로 등가회로에서 집중소자의 정확한 값을 구하였다. 그리고 이 값들을 이용하여 저역통과 여파기를 설계한 결과, 집중소자 여파기의 주파수 특성과 분포소자 여파기의 주파수 특성이 매우 잘 일치함을 확인할 수 있었다.

An approximate, numerically-efficient solution for a microstrip T-junction is discussed. The microstrip T-junction is modeled as a rectangular waveguide with top/bottom electric walls and side magnetic walls. Comparisons of our solution with others show favorable agreements.

본 논문에서는 Y-junction을 이용한 H-평면 8-way 구형 도파관 전력 분배기를 제안한다. 일반적인 N-way 전력분배기의 경우 T-junction을 이용하여 다단 형태로 구성이 되는데, 출력 포트 간의 간격이 가까운 경우 T-junction 만으로는 공간상의 제약으로 인하여 매칭 특성을 개선할 수 없다. 따라서 이 같은 경우에는 T-junction과 함께 다른 형태의 3포트 junction이 최종 출력단에 사용되어야 하는데, 본 논문에서는 Y-junction이 사용되었다. 제안된 Y-junction은 임피던스 매칭 특성을 향상시키기 위해 테이퍼드-라인 임피던스 변환기와 유도성 iris가 적용되었다. Y-junction을 이용한 8-way 전력 분배기를 제작하여 측정한 결과, 동작 주파수에서 반사 손실 값은 -30.8 dB, 삽입 손실은 약 -9.5 dB로 측정되었다. 또한, 출력 포트 간의 최대 위상차는 약 $1^{\circ}$로 측정되었다. 따라서 제안된 전력 분배기는 배열 안테나의 급전 구조와 같이 입력 전력을 동일한 크기와 위상으로 분기하는데 필요한 다양한 마이크로파 시스템에 적용하는데 있어서 매우 유용할 것으로 판단된다.

The present study experimentally investigated the effect of flow direction and other flow parameters on two-phase flow distribution of refrigerants at a T-junction, and also suggested a prediction model for refrigerant in a T-junction by modifying previous model for air-water flow. R-22, R-134a, and R-410A were used as test refrigerants. As geometric parameters, the direction of the inlet or branch tube and the tube diameter ratio of branch to inlet tube were chosen. The measured data were compared with the values predicted by the models developed for air-water or steam-water mixture in the literature. We propose a modified model for application to the reduced T-junction and vertical tube orientation. Among the geometric parameters, the branch tube direction showed the biggest sensitivity to the mass flow rate ratio for the gas phase, while the inlet quality showed the biggest sensitivity to the mass flow rate ratio among the inlet flow parameters.

This paper presents the study of flows at T-junction pipe with orifices. Experiments were carried out for several flow rates, orifice sizes, and pressure differences. Numerical simulations were also done to get more data for the wide range of flow rates. Experimental results and numerical ones are in a good agreement. Due to the effect of T-junction part, the flow rates at the lateral pipe are greater than those at straight pipe for the same pressure differences. When orifices were added, the effects of T-junction part on the ratio of flow rates and the ratio of loss coefficients reduced.

The objective of the present study is to investigate the dividing two-phase flow in a horizontal micro T-junction with the same rectangular cross section, $800\;{\mu}m{\times}800\;{\mu}m$, experimentally. Air and water were used as the test fluids. The superficial velocity ranges of air and water were 15~20 m/s and 0.11~0.2 m/s, respectively. Dividing flow characteristics at the micro T-junction are different from those at the larger T-junctions (5~10 mm in hydraulic diameter). Compared with the results of previous works related with the T-junction with mini cross sections (about 5 mm), for lower range of gas separation, the fraction of the liquid separated through the branch decreases for the fixed fraction of the gas separation. But for higher range of gas separation, higher liquid separation could be found.

The aim of this research was to determine the diverse effects of Sappan Lignum extract and brazilin on human keratinocyte HaCaT cells. We confirmed the antioxidant effect of Sappan Lignum extract and brazilin was analyzed by using an ABTS assay, confirming the efficacy of water extraction method. Also, we examined effect of Sappan Lignum extract and brazilin on the cell viability, using the MTS assay in HaCaT cells. mRNA expression levels of tight junction-related genes associated with skin barrier in HaCaT cells were analyzed using quantitative real-time PCR analysis. Sappan Lignum extract increased the cellular activity of HaCaT cells and the expression of the tight junction-related genes claudin 3, claudin 6, and ZO-2. Brazilin displayed the same effects as that of the extract on HaCaT cells activity and tight junction-related genes expression. Furthermore, dispase assay demonstrated altered cell-cell adhesion strength of Sappan Lignum extract or brazilin treated HaCaT cells. Sappan Lignum extract or brazilin might be an useful ingredient in skin-mosturizinng and anti-wrinkle cosmetics, given its effects of altering mRNA expression of tight junction-related genes and enhancing cell-cell adhesion strength of HaCaT cells.
