The three-dimensional estimation on the depth and height of flaw by using the difference of radiographic contrast density was studied. First, the specimens having artificial flaws of various depths and heights were prepared and the radiographic testing was performed. The radiographic depth of flaw was investigated and estimated on the effect of the scattered radiation with the change of distance between flaw and film. The height of flaw was estimated from the radiographic test with the reference specimen. The radiographic contrast with flaw depth decreased with increasing the flaw depth. The scattered radiation increased with increasing flaw depth and varied with the location between flaw and film. However, in the case of flaw height, the contrast density increased with increasing flaw height. It is thought due to the change in volume generating the scattered radiation which reaches a film.

This study was carried out to measure the flaw height of welds in consideration of the effective probe angle in ultrasonic oblique detection. Specimens with inserted artificial flaws were made and flaw heights were estimated from detecting these specimens. Two different methods were applied to estimate flaw heights. From the result of the experiment, flaw height could be measured within the accuracy of 15% percent error and the difference between the probe distance method and beam path method is about 5% relatively small. It is considered that the results obtained this experimental study could be helpful informal ions for measuring flaw height.

Most of significant defects in the pressure boundaries of nuclear power plant we re dispositioned to be monitored periodically every inservice inspection. Due to the difficulty of the defect sizing during operation, it is necessary to develope the continuous flaw monitoring techniques. The Tip Diffraction method, specifically speaking, spot seems to be suitable for flaw monitoring. The optimum conditions of selecting the transducer were 3.5 MHz and 45-57 degree according to compatibility with the defect height. The effective calculation of the defect height was to assume the fact that the incident beam is parallel. This method would be supplemented to ASME method about the defect characterization for the surface flaw.

The periodic inspection of piping and pressure vessels welds in nuclear power plant has to provide reliable result related to weld flaws, such as location, maximum amplitude response, ultrasonic length, height and finally the nature or flaw pattern. The founded flaw in ultrasonic inspection is accepted or rejected based on these data. Specially, the amplitude of flaw response is used as basic parameter for flaw sizing and it may cause some deviation in length sizing result. Currently the ultrasonic inspections in nuclear power plant components are performed by specific inspection procedure which describing inspection technique include inspection system, calibration methodology and flaw characterizing. To perform ultrasonic inspection during in-service inspection, reference gain should be established before starting ultrasonic inspection by the requirement of ASME code. This reference gain used as basic criteria to evaluate flaw sizing. Sometimes, a little difference in establishing reference gain between calibration and field condition can lead to deviation in flaw sizing. Due to this difference, the inspection result may cause flaw sizing error. Therefore, the objective of this study is to compare and evaluate the ultrasonic amplitude difference between air filled and water filled pipe in nuclear power plant. Additionally, the accuracy of flaw sizing is estimated by comparing both conditions.

In this inquiry, I would suggest jet ventilation system for effective elimination of welding flaw at machinery material welding shop on plant and evaluate the airstream on inner space and property of welding flaw's density through the examination. We can know outer atmosphere inflows at the speed of about 0.05m/s from western entrance in case of stopping the jet ventilation system, but airstream is accumulated on entire space. At height of worker's breathing surface(Ground Level = 1.5 m, below of GL) and welding work center, density of welding flaw on upper part(GL = 12m) is appeared 4 times higher than outer atmosphere at surplus range besides nearby of western entrance. At operation of jet ventilation system, since the smooth air current transfer at inner space and exhaust effect the wind speed is maintained at 0.932 m/s at the point of height of worker's breathing surface on inner space and it's concluded about the working conditions have been better than before operation of jet ventilation system because of that results show that inner space density of welding flaw at height of worker's breathing surface is 40.5%, and in the work shop, it is 20.3% at upper part.

This study presents experimental results of sloshing phenomenon done on rectangular box. A simple harmonic excitation was done on the box. Two kinds of filling ratio, 20% and 30% of height, were tested. A total of 15 pressure sensors were installed to monitor the impact pressure. Each test was repeated for 20 times to ensure the repeatability. The high speed camera captured the flaw filed and the corresponding pressure were synchronize with video signal so that the video image can help the interpretation of the impact pressure. The two filling ratio made difference in the flaw characteristic and impact pressure. The use of high speed camera made it possible to understand the bubble generation mechanism. The pressure time histories were presented.

The welding distortion is caused by welding heat in the structures which are widely used in shipbuilding and automotive industries, thus many researchers have proposed such methods to control the welding distortion through trials and numerical studies. The welding distortion has been the main cause of low productivity due to the structural strength degradation, apparent flaw, additional deformation caused by the process followed the current assembly step, and the increase of correction workload. The deformation of fillet welding is investigated in this study, and the influence of the rib height on the welding distortion is verified through the actual experiment. And the numerical analysis model using the FE software MSC.marc for analysis of welding distortion is proposed.

Aerodynamic characteristics depending on the shape of an internal motor in a small-size sirocco fan for residential ventilation have been investigated For the aerodynamic analyses of the sirocco fan, three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations are solved with the shear stress transport model for turbulence closure. The flaw analyses are performed on hexahedral grids using a finite-volume solver. The validation of the numerical results at steady-state is performed by comparing with experimental data for the pressure and efficiency. In order to investigate the aerodynamic characteristics depending on shape of an internal motor in a sirocco fan, the reference shape is analyzed compared to the case without internal motor. Additionally, two shape parameters, height and width of the internal motor in a sirocco fan, are tested to investigate their effects on the aerodynamic characteristics. The results show that the shape of the internal motor in a sirocco fan is an important factor to improve the aerodynamic performances.

Reservoirs, facilities to store water, are being used in several fields for their ability to hold back a large quantity of water for a long time before the water is actually used. However, at the same time, the reservoirs are considered to have a flaw: the longer they store water, the more the quality of water in these reservoirs deteriorates. Further, when the reservoirs are large, they are more likely to have dead-water regions in out-of-the way spots far from either an in-current or an ex-current canal. This study conducted a Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) simulation and tried to figure out the internal flow inside each of the reservoirs with different in-current canals built by the multiple hoe screw nozzle method and the drop in-current method. The drop in-current method is more frequently used. According to the analysis of the internal flow inside each reservoir with the different methods applied, we found that the reservoir with the drop in-current canal would have two rotary currents in the lower region of the reservoir and that the velocity of flow would decrease. For a reservoir with the screw nozzle method, a single rotary current occurred, and inside the reservoir, regardless of height, the current turned out to flow in a regular manner.
