In this study, geometric shape and crack in welded interface of the air cooled heat exchanger Fin-Tube of Dissimilar Meterials was analysed. The object of study is to understand the behavior of Stress Intensity Factor for fin length, flash thickness, flash length, symmetric and asymmetric cracks of comming from the manufacturing process. Stress Intensity Factor was analysed by BEM. Kelvin's solution was used as a fundamental solution in BEM analysis and stress extrapolation method was used to determine Stress Intensity Factor.

In this study, failure behavior of piercing plug for seamless tube manufacturing process was studied. Three different kinds of passed piercing plugs (10, 90, 215 times) were prepared. The shape deformation of the passed piercing plugs was observed by 3D coordinate measuring machine, and the oxidized layer on the surface of piercing plug was observed by optical microscopy. The length reduction of piercing plug presented at 215 times passed plug. It was found that the oxidized layer consisted of outer scale, inner scale and internal oxidation layers, and the inner scale layer had vertical cracks, and interfaces had horizontal cracks. We proposed the failure mechanism of piercing plug during seamless tube manufacturing process based on the formation of vertical and horizontal crack.

A ball-shape alumina arc-tube for low-wattage lamp was developed by the PIM process. An ultra high purity translucentgrade alumina powder was used. In injection molding process, a hot-runner type mold was developed. The translucent-grade alumina powder was extremely sensitive to contamination so that the injection molding condition and atmosphere control in the furnace should be taken care of with extreme caution. Contamination sources were pinpointed with EPMA. The arc-tube was molded in half and two halves were bonded in the middle by a new bonding technique at room temperature developed in this study.

In this study, an analysis program to assess the susceptibility of steam generator tubes due to the flow-induced vibration was developed. Analysis of fluid-elastic instability and random turbulence excitation for the U-tube bundle in CE-type steam generator was accomplished. The effective mass distribution along the U-tube was obtained to calculate the natural frequency and dynamic mode shape. Finally, stability ratios and rms vibration amplitude for selected tubes are obtained.

An experimental research has been performed to investigate capacity of CFCST(Concrete Filled Carbon Sheet Tube) columns because column member is one of the most important structural members. Generally, two shapes of column sections, rectangular and circular shapes, are designed but the circular shape which has constant curvature was chosen for this study. Total 17 column specimens confined by carbon sheet tube were tested using 10,000kN universal test machine(UTM).

This paper investigates the vibration characteristics of steam generator (SG) U-tubes with defect. The operating SG shell-side flow field conditions for determining the fluidelastic instability parameters such as added mass are obtained from three-dimensional SG flow calculation. Modal analyses are performed for the U-tubes either with axial or circumferential flaw with different sizes. Special emphases are on the effects of flaw orientation and size on the modal and instability characteristics of tubes, which are expressed in terms of the natural frequency, corresponding mode shape and stability ratio. Also, addressed is the effect of the internal pressure on the vibration characteristics of the tube.

Hydroforming process has become an effective manufacturing process because it can be adaptable to forming of complex structural components. Tube hydroforming has been successfully developed in the real industrial field by many researchers. However, there still remains the constraint about shape which can be manufactured by tube hydroforming. In order to improve this constraint of shape and formability of conventional sheet metal forming, hydroforming process of sheet metal pairs becomes an important technology. In the present work, the finite element analysis of hydroforming process of sheet metal pairs is presented. After basic study about experimental parameters based on numerical analysis, hydroforming process of sheet metal pairs is developed which uses hydraulic pressure as a main forming source.

The purpose of the present paper is to investigate the effect of Process parameters such as internal pressure, amount of axial feeding, and frictional condition between the die and the material on the tube hydro-formability. For carbon steel tubes(STKM 12A, STBH 410 and SPS 290), simple bulging, circular bulging and Tee-fitting tests are performed to evaluate the hydro-formability of these materials which is determined by deformation characteristics such as thickness distribution, forming height and branch dome shape. The formabilities obtained from these tests are analysed and compared with the results of the numerical simulation.

For the study of performance evaluation on different shape heat exchangers that have the same energy consumption in a refrigerator, we make performance evaluation coefficient (PEC) which can distinguish performance of different shape heat exchangers. The results were reported in order to compare with for the dry frosting and wet frosting test as various definition of PECs. Results showed that PEC of dry frosting test is higher than that of wet frosting test because attached water droplet increases pressure drop of air-side then this decreases performance of heat exchanger.

In the hydroforming process the number of process can be reduced by combining pre-forming process and post-forming process such as the bending, piercing and the embedding process. Integrated studies on the embedding manufacturing technology have been performed by analyzing the deformed mode of the tubes and the optimal process parameters. In this study, a simulation model that can prove clamping force between the clamping element and tube has been investigated by FEM. The characteristics of the embedded parts, such as the shape of the screw tip, screw thread and shape of thread were investigated at various clamping element conditions.
