Outpatient drainage therapy is generally indicated for spontaneous pneumothoraces. A 63-year-old man, who had been attacked by a bull sustaining injuries on the right side of his chest, was referred to the emergency room with dyspnea. His chest X-ray showed a small pneumothorax. The next day, a chest X-ray demonstrated that his pneumothorax had worsened, although no hemothorax was identified. Outpatient drainage therapy with a thoracic vent was initiated. The air leak stopped on the third day and the thoracic vent was removed on the sixth day. Thoracic vents can be a useful modality for treating traumatic pneumothorax without hemothorax.

In the present work, the design of fuel system for Smart UAV focused on the main components such as fuel feed system, fuel tank vent system, and refueling system was conducted. Based on the previous conceptual design results, the size of the component was calculated with refined airframe structure data and accurate engine data. It was verified that the design requirements for the feed system, vent system, and refueling system were satisfied.

An analysis method is developed for the prediction of venting in multiple compartments which are connected in series or parallel through multiple ports. The existing method by the authors is modified to remove the limitation in number of ports and compartments, and the more general polytropic relation or solution of the additional energy equation replaces the previous isentropic relation allowing the prediction of pressure rise in addition to pressure drop. The accuracy of the method is verified by comparison with the results by NASA Flap code for the problem of pressure drop in a payload in the Space Shuttle cargo bay. It is expected that this method will be a useful tool in prediction of the pressure variation in a payload or payload capsule without mentioning the payload fairing itself.

Vent ports are installed on the walls of closed compartments of a launch vehicle to control the pressure drop in the compartments. The ports can be modelled as an orifice, and the accurate prediction of the discharge coefficient of an orifice is essential for the design of vent ports. Experimental methods have been used to determine the discharge coefficients for various shapes of orifices, and extensive databases are available. Wind tunnel tests have been also done to evaluate the effect of interaction between venting outflow and freestream for limited conditions. The goal of the present research is to predict the discharge coefficient of an orifice using CFD and evaluate the accuracy of the method, especially for the orifices exposed to the external flow.

A methods of minimizing the measurement error brought from gas compositions was proposed by Hot wire Anemometer which don't have measurement resistance to calculate of gas vent in sanitary landfill. It was determined measurement error to compared velocity at the center of pipe to calculate using rotor meter and density gas compositions with velocity at the center of pipe to calculate using water head indicator which don't have measurement resistance. Considering the methods of minimizing gas velocity in sanitary landfill using hot wire anemometer and rotor meter, it was found to minimize within 10% as error of gas vent in sanitary landfill.

Pressure drop, as a function of air flow, was measured for tomatoes and mandarins in bulk with different sizes, stacking arrangements and bed porosities. Pressure drop was also measured on carton vent holes and on a carton of packed fruits . and the cumulative effects of air flow resistance of vent holes and packed fruits in bulk on the air flow resistance of a carton of fruits were evaluated . Equation were presented to describe pressure drop bulk fruits, of an empty carton and of a carton of packed fruits as related to the air velocity , the bed porosity, the fruit diameter and the opening ratio of the vent hole.

Containment Filtered Vent Systems (CFVSs) have been mainly equipped in nuclear power plants in Europe and Canada for the controlled depressurization of the containment atmosphere under severe accident conditions. This is to keep the containment integrity against overpressure during the course of a severe accident, in which the radioactive gas-steam mixture from the containment is discharged into a system designed to remove the radionuclides. In Korea, a CFVS was first introduced in the Wolsong unit-1 nuclear power plant as a mitigation measure to deal with the threat of over pressurization, following post-Fukushima action items. In this paper, the overall features of a CFVS installation such as risk assessments, an evaluation of the performance requirements, and a determination of the optimal operating strategies are analyzed for the Wolsong unit 1 nuclear power plant using a severe accident analysis computer code, ISAAC.

During braking operation, the surfaces of disk have severe contact conditions and high frictional heat would be generated between disk and pad surfaces. The heat makes high temperature gradient on disk surfaces and results in thermal deformation. To enhance the frictional heat dissipation, heat pipes are embedded in the ventilated type disk along the radial direction. The temperatures of the inner vent type disk and the brake disk with heat pipes are compared at the same operating conditions. By comparison a brake disk with heat pipes has higher cooling performance than the inner vent type disk.

Nowadays a lot of high-tech electronic products such as TVs, monitors and camcorders are being developed. The more functions the electronic devices have, the more heat problems occur. Therefore, most of electronic products have air-ventilation holes to eliminate heat that is generated inside the products. The shapes of ventilation holes are usually complicated since aesthetic appearance of the products is important these days. In order to create those complicated shapes, designers should do time-consuming jobs because most of commercial CAD systems do not provide the functions that create patterns of lofted parts along freeform surfaces. In this research, an automated air-ventilation hole modeling system was proposed. The system generates patterns of lofted objects on freeform surfaces. Standard process to create air-ventilation holes manually was established, and vent-hole types and pattern types were classified into several categories. Designers can create many kinds of vent-holes by combining vent-hole types and pattern types. Users can also utilize user-defined pattern which can give users more flexibility. Developed system was applied to several design examples and the results are presented.

Foreign countries stipulate that ventilation and smoke control facilities are installed in logistics warehouses. On the other hand, in Korea, the design guidelines and standards of ventilation and smoke control facilities for logistics warehouses are not clear even in the situation where the number of human casualties caused by smoke has increased until recently. Accordingly, the smoke descent time according to the vent was calculated. As a result, when there was no vent, the smoke descent time was 369s. On the other hand, when the vent was installed, smoke did not fall because the amount of smoke was greater than the amount of smoke generated.
