The stability ratio and vibrational amplitude of each tube inside a steam generator have different values. We estimate the characteristics of flow-induced vibration for CE type steam generator with various column and row number of the tube. To obtain the thermal-hydraulic data and stability ratio we use the ATHOS3-MODI and PIAT-FEI/TE code respectively. It turns out that the steam generator has a bounded central zone with the distributed values of the stability ratio and the vibrational amplitude, and those values across the zone boundary become decreased.

This study indicated the possibility of energy regeneration from waste coolant heat, by using thermoelectric generation integrated with heat pipe. The internal combustion engine rejects more than 60% wasteful energy to the atmosphere by heat. The thermoelectric generator has recently been studied, to convert the energy from engine waste heat into electricity. For coolant waste heat recovery, a thermoelectric generator was investigated, to find out the possibility of vehicular application. Performance characteristics were conducted with various test conditions of coolant temperature, coolant mass flow rate, air temperature, and air velocity, with the thermoelectric generator installed either horizontally or vertically. Experimental results show that the electric power and conversion efficiency increases according to the temperature difference between the hot and cold side of the thermoelectric generator, and the coolant flow rate of the hot side heat exchanger. Performance improvement can be expected by optimizing the heat pipe design.

Experimental investigations of the longitudinal vortices, which are produced by wing type vortex generators set up behind a circular cylinder in a rectangular channel, are presented. When the circular cylinder is set up in the rectangular channel, a horseshoe vortex is formed just upsteam of the circular cylinder. It generates a turbulent wake region behind the circular cylinder. Therefore, the region of the pressure loss behind the circular cylinder in increased and the size of the wake is small. These problems can be achieved by longitudinal vortices which are generated by wing-type vortex generator. In order to control the strength of longitudinal vortices, the angle of attack of the vortex generators is varied from 20 degree to 45, but the spacing between the vortex generators is fixed 6cm. The 3-dimensional mean velocity measurements are made using a five-hole probe. The vorticity field and streamwise velocity contour are obtained from the velocity field. The following results are obtained. Circulation strength is the maximum value when the angle of attack($\beta$) is $30^{\circ}$, and the vorticity field and streamwise velocity contour in case of $\beta$=$20^{\circ}$ show the trend similar to these in case of $\beta$=$30^{\circ}$, but do not in case of $\beta$=$45^{\circ}$.

We had experimental studies of microwave output generator. We experimented with a corrugate-shped K-band slow wave guide in the backward wave oscillator. It generated output 표 interaction between electron beam's generation and magnetic field. We estimated oscillation frequency at 24GHz by changing propagation velocity and group velocity. We identified movement by second harmonic of Cherencov interaction and slow cyclotron mode. In our study we achieved oscillation stabilization, generation of long pulse, improvement of oscillation efficiency and output.

This study proposed a wind power generation system utilizing outdoor air on the rooftop and indoor ventilation, which would increase according to the building height, as a way to help to save energy consumption in a building by using wind power energy of the new renewable energy sources. The study measured the distribution of air currents and power generation according to the usage factor of exhaust pipes in the kitchen and bathroom and identified the elements to consider when applying a wind power generation system to buildings in order to use outdoor air on the rooftop increasing according to the height and the indoor ventilation produced in the facility vertical shafts inside the buildings by installing a wind power generation system on the rooftop. (1) The study measured the ventilation velocity of the kitchen hood and bathroom ventilation fan by changing the zone areas by the households according to the usage factor of [${\alpha}$]=33~100%. As a result, the kitchen ventilation pipe generated the ventilation wind of 3.0m/s or more at the usage factor of [${\alpha}$] 66% or higher, and the bathroom ventilation pipe generated ventilation velocity lower than 3.0m/s, the blade velocity of the wind power generator, even after the usage factor rose to [${\alpha}$]=100%. (2) As the old bathroom ventilation pipe generated the ventilation velocity of 3.0m/s, the blade velocity of the wind power generator, even with the rising usage factor [${\alpha}$], the application of an outdoor air induction module increased the ventilation velocity by 2.9m/s at the usage factor of [${\alpha}$]=33%, 3.8m/s at the usage factor of [${\alpha}$]=66%, and 3.6m/s at the usage factor of [${\alpha}$]=100%. Thus the ventilation velocity of 3.0m/s, the blade velocity of the wind power generator, or higher was secured. (3) The findings prove that the applicability of a wind power generation system using outdoor air on the rooftop and indoor ventilation is excellent, which raises a need for various efforts to increase the possibility of its commercialization such as securing its structural stability according to momentary gusts on the rooftop and typhoons in summer and making the structure light to react to the wind directions of outdoor air on the rooftop according to the seasons.

To use vibration energy to generate electricity, a resonance vertical linear electric generator was applied to the suspension of a vehicle in a previous paper. However, the working conditions, including mass change in the vehicle body related to the cargo on board, number of passengers and the temperature difference caused by the operating environment, can influence the permanent magnet, which is the main component of the electric generator. Therefore, a robust optimum design is required to minimize the influences from the diverse operation conditions and maximize the electromotive force of the electric generator. In this paper, a resonance linear electric generator is introduced. Vibration response analysis to find the input velocity of the electric generator and an electromagnetic transient analysis to apply changes in the performance of the permanent magnet are performed. Finally, the optimum value of each design variable is derived using a Taguchi method.

In this study, ice slurry generator using air cylinder was designed and manufactured to investigate the heat transfer characteristic of the ice slurry generator. The ice slurry generator has the same shape as the shell-and-tube type heat exchanger. Refrigerant is flowing in the shell side and ethylene glycol solution in the tube side. The experiment was conducted on performance of ice slurry generator using air cylinder with standard condition and the results are plotted on the time scale. The experimental tests on the various concentration of ethylene glycol solution, the various solution velocity in the tube side and the various tube size have been carried. For the above experimental conditions, ice making characteristics of the ice slurry generator are evaluated in terms of the overall heat transfer coefficient. And the experimental results show that the overall heat transfer coefficient of the system is increased as the tube size and the concentration of ethylene glycol decreases.

In this paper, the evaluation method of fluidelastic instability (FEI) of newly designed steam generator tubing in pressurized water reactor (PWR) nuclear power plants is discussed. To obtain the parameters for prediction of the critical velocity of FEI for steam generator tubes, experimental research is carried out, and the design parameters are determined. Using CFD numerical simulation, the tube array scale of the model experiment is determined, and the experimental device is designed. In this paper, 7 groups of experiments with void fractions of 0% (water), 10%, 20%, 50%, 75%, 85% and 95% were carried out. The critical damping ration, fundamental frequency and critical velocity of FEI of tubes in flowing water were measured. Through calculation, the total mass and instability constant of the immersed tube are obtained. The critical damping ration measured in the experiment mainly included two-phase damping and viscous damping, which changed with the change in void fraction from 1.56% to 4.34%. This value can be used in the steam generator design described in this paper and is conservative. By introducing the multiplier of frequency and square root of total mass per unit length, it is found that the difference between the experimental results and the calculated results is less than 1%, which proves the rationality and feasibility of the calculation method of frequency and total mass per unit length in engineering design. Through calculation, the instability constant is greater than 4 when the void fraction is less than 75%, less than 4 when the void fraction exceeds 75% and only 3.04 when the void fraction is 95%.
