This study was undertaken to elucidate effects of ingesting small or large amount of tap or iced water on circulation of normal healthy men with the purpose of furnishing basic data for nursing intervention of myocardial infarction patients. The subjects for this study were normal healthy men consisting of 30men and 30women in age from 22 to 30 years. One group consisting of 30men drank 240m1 tap water on day l and 240m1 iced water 24hours later. The other group drank 960m1 tap water on day 1 and 960m1 iced water 24hours later. Blood pressure and heart rate were taken in a sitting position before ingesting water, and immediately after ingesting it and at 2,5,10,15,30 minute intervals thereafter. Changes of heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure after ingesting water were compared with those of preingestive period. The results obtained were as follows : 1. There were no significant changes in blood pressure and heart rater after ingesting small amount of water regardless of its temperature. 2. No significant decrease in blood pressure after ingesting large amount of tap water at all time peroids was noted. 3. A strongly significant interaction effect bet-ween temperature and volume was demonstrated, that is, there was a highly significant decrease in blood pressure and heart rate at all time periods after ingesting large amount of iced water.

Between January 1984 and December 1986, sixty nine patients, aged 16 months to 25 years [mean age 10.05*6.40 years], underwent total correction of tetralogy of Fallot in Kyungpook national university hospital. In 66 hospital survivors, 30 patients were followed up for 12 to 48 months [mean 30.10*10.26 months]. These 30 patients were classified in two groups, TAP [transannular patch] and Non-TAP group. There were 9 patients in TAP group, and 21 in Non-TAP group. There were no significant differences between two groups in terms of age at operation, follow up duration, ACC time, and bypass time. All patients were evaluated by two dimensional echocardiography, Doppler echocardiography, standard 12-lead electrocardiography, and plain chest X-ray. Right ventricular systolic pressure, pulmonary arterial systolic pressure, pressure gradient between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery, presence or absence of pulmonary regurgitation and its grading, fractional shortening of the left ventricle, and Qp/Qs in case of remnant ventricular septal defect were obtained by echocardiographic examination. Cardiothoracic ratio was measured by plain chest film, and ventricular dysrrhythmia was detected by electrocardiogram. Comparing the data between two groups, there was significant difference in incidence of postoperative pulmonary regurgitation [p< 0.05], 100%[9/9] in TAP group and 47.6 %[10/21] in Non-TAP group, but all the regurgitations were not severe. There were no significant differences in other comparisons, despite of higher incidence of cardiomegaly in TAP group [CT ratio: 59.3*5.3% VS 54.7*6, 4 %].

The inner structure of the triangular separate bar (TSB) was improved to enhance the productivity of the TSB flow meter by simplifying the machining process for making the flow meter. The cross section of upstream and downstream pressure chamber in the TSB was changed from triangle to circle, which make it possible to substitute the wire cutting by drilling in the process of machining the pressure chamber. The flow rate characteristics of the flow meters was calibrated with a laminar flow meter. Six kinds of flow meters whose diameters of pressure tap for measuring pressure of both upsteam and downstream pressure chamber were different one another were made. The effects of the pressure tap diameter on the flow rate characteristics of the TSB flow meter was little. The mass flow rate characteristics of the flow meters with increasing a non-dimensional parameter which includes the gas temperature, exhaust gas pressure and differential pressure at the flow meters and atmospheric pressure shows nearly linear relationship with a correlation coefficient of R=0.998.

From Jan 1982 through Dec.1991, thirty-three DeVega`s tricuspid annuloplasties were performed in association with mitral and combined mitral and aortic valve disease. Preoperatively,all of the patients were in NYHA functional class III or IV.There were one early death and 4 patients died during follow up period of 18 to 138 months [ mean follow up : 67.3 months ]. Nine patients required reoperation because of biological mitral valve failure at 4.7 to 11 years after tricuspid annuloplasty[TAP]. Among these patients,2 cases needed for reoperation of TAP due to loosening of suture material. Twenty four [86%] of the survivors were in NYHA functional class I or II after TAP.The actuarial survival rate for the TAP was 74% at 138 months. Rt atrial pressure of 9 reoperation cases were significantly decreased [P<0.05] compared with initial Rt.atrial pressure [ Mean period; 93.6 months].Doppler echocardiographic studies for tricuspid regurgitation were performed in 15 cases after TAP [Mean period: 42.3 months].These results showed significantly reduced [P<0.01] tricuspid annulus diameter and tricuspid regurgitation distance [ P<0.05 ].Our surgical experience that the DeVega`s TAP is a simple,safe,effective procedure and resulted in good hemodynamic improvement with moderate to severe functional tricuspid regurgitation.

This paper presents studies on the design of water hydraulic system and components to replace oil with tap-water as the pressure transmission medium in hydraulic systems. In order to improve the performance of water hydraulic system, the thermal and hydraulic properties of tap-water are first investigated. Based on these characteristics, the design parameters, such as the clearances of the moving parts, the cross-sectional area of pipes and relative roughness, are proposed so that the performance of water hydraulic system is the same as that of oil. In addition, the operating ranges, which show the possibility of using water hydraulic system, are examined.

Pressure Sensitive Paint(PSP)는 압력에 반응하는 도료를 뜻한다. PSP를 이용하여 압력을 측정하기 위해서는 Paint Calibration과 PSP를 도포한 모델의 풍동실험이 필요하다. PSP는 이 두 가지의 결과를 이용한 이미지의 후처리과정을 통하여 압력정보를 포함한 이미지를 얻을 수 있는 신기술이다. 본 연구에서는 PSP에 필요한 장치 및 설비들을 구성하고 PSP를 이용하여 초음속 유동장 내의 압력측정 실험을 실시하였다. 압력측정 실험은 초음속 유동장의 노즐 벽면의 압력을 측정하였으며, 측정 압력에 대해서는 압력공(Pressure Tap)에 의한 결과값과 전산해석의 결과값을 통하여 비교하였고, 그 실험 결과를 바탕으로 PSP는 표면압력을 측정함에 있어서 압력공을 이용한 기존의 방식을 대체할 수 있는 기술임을 확인하였다.

For a conventional natural-circulation type solar water heater, the pressure head is limited by the height between the storage tank and hot water tap. Therefore, it is difficult to provide sufficient hot water flow rate for general usage. This study deals with a design modification of the storage tank to utilize the tap-water pressure to increase hot-water supply Based on fluid dynamic and heat transfer theories, a series of modeling and simulation is conducted to achieve practical design requirements. An experimental setup is built and tested and the results are compared with theoretical simulation model. The storage tank capacity is 240 l and the outer diameter of piping was 15 mm. Number of tube turns tested are 5, 10, and 15. Starting with initial storage tank temperature of $80^{\circ}C$, the temperature variation of the supply hot water is investigated against time, while maintaining minimum flow rate of 10 1/min. Typical results show that the hot water supply of minimum $30^{\circ}C$ can be maintained for 34 min with tap-water supply pressure of 2.5 atm, The relative errors between modeling and experiments coincide well within 10% in most cases.

The cerebrospinal fluid tap test (CSFTT) is recommended as a key step in the diagnosis of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH). While there is no generally accepted evaluation period for ascertaining a CSFTT responder, a substantial number of patients are evaluated only once within 24 hours of the test for improvement in gait. We report an iNPH patient with a favorable response to shunt surgery, who was first judged a non-responder by this standard, though subsequently was judged a responder in virtue of repetitively testing gait over 7 days. A 68-year-old man presented with progressive impairment of gait, balance, and memory. He was diagnosed as iNPH with an Evans' ratio of 0.35. At first hospitalization, change in gait was evaluated 24 hours after the CSFTT. He didn't show any significant improvement and was judged as a non-responder. However, at the second CSFTT, we repetitively tested his change in gait over seven days. Forty-eight hours after the tap, he showed significant improvement in his gait. He was then confirmed as a responder. After the operation, the gait difficulties were almost fully resolved. Further studies developing the standard procedure of the CSFTT should be considered.

We investigated differences in ventricular and hippocampal volumes between CSF tap test (CSFTT) responders and non-responders in idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus (INPH) patients and compared these parameters in INPH patients with that of age- and gender-matched healthy controls. We also evaluated relationships between ventricular and hippocampal volumes and clinical profiles in INPH patients. We enrolled 48 patients with INPH and 29 healthy controls. Ventricular and hippocampal volumes were measured on MRI, including 3-dimensional volumetric images. INPH patients, when compared to healthy controls, had significantly larger ventricular and smaller hippocampal volumes. No difference in ventricular and hippocampal volumes was found between CSFTT responders and non-responders in INPH patients. And hippocampal volumes showed significant negative correlations with Clinical Dementia Rating Scale scores, INPH grading scale cognitive scores, Timed Up and Go Test scores, and Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale motor scores in INPH patients. Volumetric assessment of ventricular and hippocampal regions may have no predictive value in differentiating between CSFTT responders and non-responders in INPH patients. Our findings may help us understand the potential pathophysiology of unique symptoms associated with INPH.
