  • Subject : The Association between Extraordinary Organs(奇恒之腑) and Eight Extra Meridians(奇經 八脈). Objectives : This study research some special aspects of Extraordinary Organs and Eight Extra Meridians which differentiated from ordinary Organs and Meridians, and the association between Extraordinary Organs and Eight Extra Meridians. Methods : First, researched classification standard and physiological characteristics of Extraordinary Organs through studying various chapters of HuangdiNeijing. Second, researched The Association between Extraordinary Organs and Eight Extra Meridians through studying on the origin of Eight Extra Meridians in HuangdiNeijing. Third, from accompanying researching the subject of Cheon-gye(天癸) and human body shape, draw synthetic hypothesis on the relationship among ordinary Meridians and Organs, muscles and skins of body shape, Extraordinary Organs and Eight Extra Meridians. Results & Conclusions : The following conclusions could be drawn. 1. Extraordinary Organs afford background for shaping human body. This is same as the properties of the earth which afford background for shaping all creations. The physiological characteristics of Extraordinary Organs is intermediation and regulation between Ki(氣) of Five Viscera & six Bowels and shape of muscles & skins in human body. 2. The origin of Eight Extra Meridians could be found in HuangdiNeijing. The collateral Meridians of the Uterus and Epiglottis Meridian are specifically formulated to supplying for the Uterus or Epiglottis. From this we can draw The Association between Extraordinary Organs and Eight Extra Meridians, that is Eight Extra Meridians are specifically formulated to supplying for Extraordinary Organs. 3. The Cheon-gye(天癸) is doing significant function in Eight Extra Meridians supplying for Extraordinary Organs. Cheon-gye concerned to growth, secondary sexual characters, generative function, aging process. Theses are all concerned with the changing of human body shape. Cheon-gye urge to change the body shape with following the human life cycle. 4. Human body has vertical symmetry because preserve its shape from the gravitational force. Eight Extra Meridians place at the middle or flank axis of human body, thus do physiological function that assistant human body have vertical symmetry shape. The purpose of shaping vertical symmetry is securing space what the inner Twelve Regular Meridians and Five Viscera & six Bowels create there own physical changes. On the other hand the inner changes need deviation between left and right because of mobility and circulation of force. But human body change the shape in the process of growth, reproduction, aging. Eight Extra Meridians play role at time of these processing, thus they deeply concerned to human's life cycle and reproduction. 5. Eight Extra Meridians and Extraordinary Organs were named 'Extra' because of some special aspects which differentiated from ordinary Meridians and Organs. All they play role to have vertical symmetry shape of human body and maintain the shape, thus they deeply concerned to the change of human life cycle. These shaping maintaining and the change of human life cycle are very special aspects of human body. So they needed to differently cognize separate to the ordinary changes of Five Viscera & six Bowels and Twelve Meridians at inner space.

  • Deadweight piston gauge have been widely used as a fundamental instrument of precise pressure measurement because they are robust, accurate, potable, convenient to use and are able to realize the definition of pressure as farce per unit area. Basically, a deadweight piston gauge consists of a piston mounted vertically in a close-fitting cylinder filled with a gas and weights of known mass values. The pressure to be measured is applied to the base of the piston generating an upward vertical force, and is balanced by the downward gravitational force generated by weights. These instruments can be used to measure pressures above 10 kPa because of tare weights including piston. However, using a variable bell-jar pressure method and a newly developed weight loading device we can extend the application range of deadweight piston gauge to lower pressures. In this paper, we present the practical calibration results for two CDGs(Capacitance diaphragm gauge, MKS) with full-scale ranges of 1.33 kPa and 13.3 kPa, respectively.

  • It is important to predict the behavior of a liquid film around a rotating cylinder in the film coating process of the steel industry. When the cylinder rotates, the behavior of the liquid film on the rotating cylinder surface is influenced by the cylinder diameter, the rotation speed, the gravitational force, and the fluid properties. These parameters determine the liquid film thickness and the rise of the film on the cylinder surface. In the present study, the two-phase interfacial flow of the liquid film on the rotating cylinder were numerically investigated by using a VOF method. For various rotation speeds, cylinder diameters and fluid viscosities, the behavior of liquid film on the rotating cylinder were predicted. Thicker film around the rotating cylinder was observed with an increase in the rotation speed, cylinder diameter, and fluid viscosity. The present results for the film thickness agreed well with available experimental and analytical results.

  • Highly-siliceous dealuminated zeolite, silicalite(end member of ZSM-5) was synthesized from a batch composition of 2.55 $Na_2O-5.0$ TPABr-$100SiO_2-2800H_2O $ at $180^{\circ}C$ and at times ranging from one to seven days of reaction time. Autoclaves containing the synthesis mixture were centrifuged within the specially-equipped convection oven to provide an elevated gravitational force field like 30 and 50 G. Tests were also conducted at normal gravity. For synthesis performed under elevated gravities, average and maximum crystal sizes were substantially greater than those synthesized under normal gravity and product yields were also found to be affected by elevated gravity ; that is, product yields were substantially enhanced under elevated gravity from 4 % to 55 % with respect to normal gravity. The average crystal sizes of silicalite synthesized at normal gravity were 50 to $70{\mu}m$ over an entire range of reaction time, one to seven days while the average crystal sizes synthsized under elevated gravities, 30 and 50 G, were 160 to $190{\mu}m$ respectively. For the elevated gravity, in particular, two separate nucleations and growths were observed. For examples, at 50G, large crystals of $200{\mu}m$ were produced through the second growing stage after 5 days of reaction following the rapid first growing stage where fairly large crystals of $135{\mu}m$ were produced only in 2 days of reaction. The maximum crystal sizes obtained through the above two growing stages were 190 and $300{\mu}m$, respectively. A discussion of how elevated gravity affects nucleation, growth, yield and crystal size of silicalite is presented.

  • Indirected heating dryer is used as one of the food waste treatment technologies for the production of the drier material supplied to the recycling facilities or end user. This study investigated the effect on drying efficiency for the operation of rotating screw with the circulating and falling movements on indirected drying process of food waste. The screw operating condition showed higher drying efficiency despite of the shorter drying time compared to the screw non-operating condition. The moisture content decreased to 14.4% from the initial moisture content of 77.1% after drying 5 hours in the screw operating condition. On the other hand, in the screw non-operating condition, the moisture content decreased slightly to 35.6% after drying 16 hours. During the drying process, variations of the water evaporation rate and particle size showed different tendencies depending on the moisture content regions. In the higher moisture content region above the glue zone(moisture content of about 50%-60%), the particle size increased and the water evaporation rate reached the highest peak. In the range of glue zone, the particle size maximized while the water evaporation rate decreased sharply. In the lower moisture content region below the glue zone, the water evaporation rate and particle size both decreased at the same time. The particle size distribution was widely ranged from 25.0mm to 0.25mm in the screw operating condition while it was narrowly distributed in the screw non-operating condition from 25.0mm to 3.56mm, especially highly concentrated to 25.0mm. It was regarded that the hygroscopic, capillary and gravitational water evaporated more easily from the intra-particle during the circulating and falling movement caused by the rotating of the screw and the difference of the cohesional force of water within intra-particle depending on the moisture content regions. Comparing the effect of the circulating and falling movement on drying efficiency, the water evaporation rates per time and per weight of dry solid in the screw operating condition were higher about 364% and 356%, respectively, than those of the screw non-operating condition.
