In this study, the effect of velocity ratio and particle size on the flow mixing characteristics in the secondary combustor was investigated. Both PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry) technique and LES(Large Eddy Simulation) were applied. Two sizes of Polystyrene PIV seeding particle of 5 and $50{\mu}m$, and three velocity ratios of 5, 3, and 1.5 were considered. Results showed that the mixing of two air streams created reattachment and recirculation regions. The size of the recirculation region was decreased as the velocity ratio increased. For the larger particle cases, due to the increased momentum by the larger particles, the size of the recirculating regions were larger than that of the smaller particle cases and the effect of the velocity ratio was not as significant as in the smaller particle case.

It is necessary to recycle and reuse waste paper for preservation of the global environment. Instead of a solid deinking agent, liquid deinking agents have been made using various fatty acids with EO/PO added for higher deinking effect. The removal efficiency of ink on waste paper was evaluated by the ERIC and brightness properties after processes of recycling pulping (sample composition ONP: OMG = 5:5, concentration 15%, temperature $45^{\circ}C$, pulping time 20 min.) and flotation (concentration 1%, temperature $45^{\circ}C$, air flow 7 L/min, time 8 min.). Also, the ink reattachment of paper was evaluated by hyperwashing. The results show that it is effective for mass-preparation to saponify oleic acid with KOH at $80^{\circ}C$ and to add EO/PO. This deinking agent was used in a paper plant, and we evaluated the brightness, color, and ERIC. The deinking agent showed excellent performance.

School nurses can play an important role in improving the prognosis of traumatized teeth of school children when they are informed about the immediate and proper dental first aid steps. The purpose of this study were to assess the awareness of school nurses concerning the management of traumatized teeth and to determine if a lecture on dental trauma management could improve school nurses'knowledge on this topic. School nurses in Gwangju and Jeonnam province completed a questionnaire before and after the lecture on the first-aid knowledge with particular focus on the following three categories. Questionnaires are composed of questions asking general information and about knowledge and proper attitude in case of the specific situation on dental trauma. According to previous studies, school nurses' knowledge tended to be higher compared with the teachers. Improvement of knowledge in school nurse was observed in emergency actions, in visiting time, replantation, carriage method, vaccine prescription related with luxation, and in possibility of fragment reattachment related with subluxation and fracture. In conclusion, it is recommended that periodical education are needed for improvement of school nurses'knowledge on proper management of dental trauma emergency.

Many studies of heat transfer on the swirling flow or unswirled flow in a abrupt pipe expansion are widely carried out. The mechanism is not fully found evidently due to the instabilities of flow in a sudden change of the shape and appearance of turbulent shear layers in a recirculation region and secondary vortex near the corner. The purpose of this study is to obtain data through an experimental study of the swirling flow and heat transfer downstream of an abrupt expansion in a circular pipe with uniform heat flux. Experiments were carried out for the turbulent flow nd heat transfer downstream of an abrupt circular pipe expansion. The uniform heat flux condition was imposed to the downstream of the abrupt expansion by using an electrically heated pipe. Experimental data are presented for local heat transfer rates and local axial velocities in the tube downstream of an abrupt 3:1 & 2:1 expansion. Air was used as the working fluid in the upstream tube, the Reynolds number was varied from 60, 00 to 120, 000 and the swirl number range (based on the swirl chamber geometry, i.e. L/d ratio) in which the experiments were conducted were L/d=0, 8 and 16. Axial velocity increased rapidly at r/R=0.35 in the abrupt concentric expansion turbulent flow through the test tube in unswirled flow. It showed that with increasing axial distance the highest axial velocities move toward the tube wall in the case of the swirling flow abrupt expansion. A uniform wall heat flux boundary condition was employed, which resulted in wall-to-bulk temperatures ranging from 24.deg. C to 71.deg. C. In swirling flow, the wall temperature showed a greater increase at L/d=16 than any other L/d. The bulk temperature showed a minimum value at the pipe inlet, it also exhibited a linear increase with axial distance along the pipe. As swirl intensity increased, the location of peak Nu numbers was observed to shift from 4 to 1 step heights downstream of the expansion. This upstream movement of the maximum Nusselt number was accompanied by an increase in its magnitude from 2.2 to 8.8 times larger than fully developed tube flow values.

Various types of flow patterns around the stepped weir and spillway, such as the skimming flow over such structures and the wave-type flow with a standing undular hydraulic jump and roller downstream of the structures, are developed in open channels. Unsteady three-dimensional numerical simulations are carried out using a hybrid RANS-LES turbulence modeling approach and the volume of fluid method for resolving free surface fluctuations to represent the turbulent flow including the skimming flow and wave-type flow over a stepped weir installed in a rectangular channel. The comparison of numerical results with an existing experimental measurement reveals that the present numerical simulations reasonably well reproduce the turbulent flow passing the stepped weir, in terms of time-averaged velocity profiles at selected locations downstream of the weir, flow topology characterized by the wave-type and skimming flows, the maximum height and length of the standing wave and the length of reattachment of recirculating zone. The numerical result further elucidates the distinct flow behaviors of the wave-type and skimming flow by presenting instantaneous intense variations of free surface and velocity vectors, the distributions of Reynolds shear stress and turbulent kinetic energy and three-dimensional complex features of coherent structures and total pressure distribution.

Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare deltoid origin status following large rotator cuff repair carried out using either an open or an arthroscopic method with a propensity score matching technique. Methods: A retrospective review of 112 patients treated for full-thickness, large rotator cuff tear via either a classic open repair (open group) or an arthroscopic repair (arthroscopic group) was conducted. All patients included in the study had undergone postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and clinical follow-up for at least 12 and 18 months after surgery, respectively. Propensity score matching was used to select controls matched for age, sex, body mass index, and affected site. There were 56 patients in each group, with a mean age of 63.3 years (range, 50-77 years). The postoperative functional and radiologic outcomes for both groups were compared. Radiologic evaluation for postoperative rotator cuff integrity and deltoid origin status was performed with 3-Tesla MRI. Results: The deltoid origin thickness was significantly greater in the arthroscopic group when measured at the anterior acromion (P=0.006), anterior third (P=0.005), and middle third of the lateral border of the acromion level (P=0.005). The deltoid origin thickness at the posterior third of the lateral acromion was not significantly different between the arthroscopic and open groups. The arthroscopic group had significantly higher intact deltoid integrity with less scarring (P=0.04). There were no full-thickness deltoid tears in either the open or arthroscopic group. Conclusions: Open rotator cuff repair resulted in a thinner deltoid origin, especially from the anterior acromion to the middle third of the lateral border of the acromion, at the 1-year postoperative MRI evaluation. Meticulous reattachment of the deltoid origin is as essential as rotator cuff repair when an open approach is selected.

Finger injuries are becoming more common with the increasing use of mechanical industrial and household appliances. Among the hand injuries, amputation is the serious disaster to the patient. Recently, application of microsurgical technique to the reattachment of ampuatated digits has been common clinical procedures. We performed microsurgical replantation to the 75 patients with 102 digits from march in 1986 to february in 1988. The following results were obtained. 1. The most common age distribution was third decade and male to female ratio was about 5:1. 2. The ratio of right to left hand was about 1:1 but the dominant to non-dominant hand was about 2:1. 3. The index finger was most commonly injured and the next was middle finger. 4. The most common type of the injuries was the crushing injury and the most common vector was a kind of pressor. 5. The anesthesia was performed in equal ratio between the general and regional anesthesia. 6. The survival rate of microreplantation to the injuries of the zone II was 77.8% and zone III was 80%. 7. The functional result after replantation at zone II was better than zone III. 8. Microreplantation was performed in any case of the type of the injury, the severity of crushing and the ischemic time, and the patients requirement was an important factor.

Understanding of the surgical anatomy of patients with double outlet right ventricle (DORV) is important in the planning of biventricular repair From May 1995 to September 1996, 7 patients underwent biventricular repair for DORV with remote ventricular septal defect. There were 5 males and 2 (tamales. Age at operation varied from 2 to 9 years(mean 3.4$\pm$ 2.7years). Preoperative diagnostic assessment was made by two-dimensional echocardiography and cardiac catheterization. Ventricular septal defect was perimembranous inlet type in all patients. Associated cardiac anomalies were pulmonary atresia in two, pulmonary stenosis in five and tricuspid chordal attachment to zonal septum in five. The operations were performed intraventricular repair and pulmonary enlargement in two, REV operation in two, and Rastelli operation in three. There was no early postoperative deaths and complications. The follow-up period war from 1 month to 18mon1hs, averaging 10: 6.1 months. In the past, we considered the Fontal operation indicative as primary choice when DORV was associated with abnormal tricuspid chordal attachment to the zonal septum, but now we believe that biventricular repair is feasible for those cases by making conal flap or reattachment method. Biventricular repair has theoretic advantages because it estabilishes normal anatomy and physiology, and it was concluded that the precise preoperative evaluation using both echocardiography and cardiac catheterization was essential to the successful surgery.

This study histologically assessed the effect of topical alendronate application on periodontal healing in replanted teeth in fifty four SD Rats. Upper first molars in rat were extracted and replanted after dried during 15 minutes or 60 minutes in the air. In Group I, all teeth were replanted after 15 minutes of dry storage without any other treatment. In Group II and III, the pulps were removed and all teeth were replanted after soaking 10 min in Hank's balanced salt solution with/without alendronate, followed by 60 minutes of dry storage. the rats were sacrificed after 7, 15 and 30 days. The histological parameters studied were healed PDL, surface inflammatory and replacement resorption, and inflammatory severity. The following conclusions could be drawn from the present investigation. 1. Group I showed lower inflammatory root resorption and inflammation severity rate, compared to Group II and Group III. In Group I there showed effective for reattachment and regeneration of PDL. 2. In Group II, inflammatory root resorption were more severe and faster than other groups. There were extensive root resorption in the rats sacrificed after 30 days. 3 In Group III, there were localized inflammatory resorption in several areas, but extensive resorption did not occur Group III showed increase in root resorption rate, compared to Group I. However this difference was not statistically significant. 4. There were no difference between sacrificed days in replacement root resorption in all groups.

Several methods have been used for regeneration of tissue lost by periodontal disease. Subepithelial connective tissue graft technique, one of the technniques of mucogingival surgery, is used for the regeneration in esthetic problems such as recession, and denuded root coverage. This study is performed to evaluate the healing process and the regeneration and reattachment of periodontal tissue, including the reconstruction of junctional epithelium, and connective tissue. Alveolar defects in five adult dogs were treated with periodontal surgery and were attained by removing the marginal alveolar bone by $4{\time}3mm$ from CEJ in the labial side of incisors, and root surfaces were planed. The experimental sites were divided into two groups as follows. 1. root planing alone(control group) 2. with connective tissue graft (Experimental Group) In the two groups flaps were positioned and sutured tightly, the healing processes were observed and were histologically compared with each other after 2days, 4days, 1week, 2weeks, 4weeks. The results were obtained as follows : 1. In the two groups blood clots were observed as early as 2 and 4 days, and were resorbed at 1 week. 2. In the two groups moderate inflammation was observed as early as 2 and 4 days, decreased at 1 and 2 weeks, and disappeared at 4 weeks. 3. Junctional Epithelium migration was more significant in the control group, and was restrained by graft materials in the experimental group. 4. Features of connective tissue fiber attachment partially showed the parallel pattern in the two groups from 2 weeks, and entirely from 4weeks. 5. Anastomosis, between graft and connective tissue, appeared from 4 days in the experimental group and the border between them was not discriminated at 4weeks.
