As a major type of heat exchanger, the steam generator (SG) produces steam from heat energy of a nuclear power plant reactor. The steam produced by the steam generator flows into a turbine, and plays an important role in electric power generation. The heat transfer tubes in the steam generator consist of approximately 10,000 U-shaped tubes, which perform a structural role and act as thermal boundaries. The heat transfer tubes conduct the thermal energy between the primary coolant (about $320^{\circ}C$, $157kgf/cm^2$) obtained from the reactor and the secondary coolant (about $260^{\circ}C$, $60kgf/cm^2$) as part of the secondary system. Recently, the heat transfer tubes in the steam generator of the pressurized water reactor (PWR) are primarily produced from Alloy 600 and Alloy 690 seamless tubes. As a pilot study to find process parameters for the cold U-bending process using rotary draw bending, numerical and experimental investigations were conducted to produce U-shaped tubes from long straight SUS304L seamless tubes. 3D finite element simulations were run using ABAQUS Explicit with consideration of the elastic recovery. The process parameters studied were the angular speed, the operation period and the bending angle. Experimental verifications were conducted to insure the suitability of the final U-shaped configurations with respect to both ovality and wall thickness.

본 연구에서는 열의 수가 세 개인 원형관 및 종횡비가 고려된 납작관-평판휜 형상의 밀집형 열교환기 내 공기의 유동 및 열전달 특성을 RNG $k-{\varepsilon}$ 난류모델을 적용하여 수치적으로 해석하였다. 수치조건의 범위는 원형관인 경우 1,000<$Re_D_h$<10,000이며, 납작관인 경우 1,000<$Re_{D_h}$<10,000 및 3.06$f\;=\;CRe^m_{D_h}$의 형태로, Colburn j 계수는 $j\;=\;CRe^m_{D_h}$ 형태로 상관관계식을 제시하였다. 이러한 상관관계식은 향후 원형관 및 납작관-평판휜 형상의 열교환기 설계시에 기본적인 자료로 충분히 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This work studies for boiling and condensation heat transfer performance of trapezoidally shaped integral-fin tubes having fin densities from 748fpm to 1654fpm. For comparison, tests are made using a plain tube having the same inside and outside diameter as that of the root of fins of finned tubes. Hahne's theoretical model and Webb's theoretical model are used to predict the R-11 boiling heat transfer coefficient and condensing heat transfer coefficient respectively for plain tube and all integral-fin tubes. Experiments are carried out using R-11 as working fluid. This work is limited to film-wise condensation and pool boiling on the outside surface of plain tube and 4 low integral-fin tubes. In case of condensation, the refrigerant condenses at saturation state of 32$^{\circ}C$ on the outside tube surface cooled by coolant and in case of boiling. the refrigerant evaporates at saturation state of 1bar on the outside tube surface. The amount of non-con-densable gases in the test loop is reduced to a negligible value by repeated purging. The actual boiling and condensing processes occur on the outside tube surfaces. Hence the nature of this surface geometry affects the heat transfer performances of condenser and evaporator in refrigerating system. The condensation heat transfer coefficient of integral-fin tube is enhanced by both extended tube surface area and surface tension. The ratio of the condensation heat transfer coefficients of finned to plain tubes is greater than that of surface area of finned to plain tubes, while ratio of the boiling heat transfer coefficient of finned to plain tubes shows reverse result. As a result, low integral-fin tube can be used in condenser more effectively than used in evaporator.

본 연구에서는 탄소, 케블라 및 탄소-케블라 하이브리드 등 4가지 소재로 제작된 원형튜브시편에 대한 에너지 흡수능력 및 파손모드를 평가하였다. 이를 위해, 본 연구에서 일방향 프리프레그를 이용해서 원형튜브 제작하고 10mm/min의 하중속도로 준정적 압축시험을 수행하였다. 시험을 통해 취성파괴모드로 압축되는 탄소/에폭시로 제작된 튜브가 가장 우수한 에너지 흡수 특성을 보인 반면, 좌굴에 의해 압축되는 케블라/에폭시 튜브가 가장 낮은 에너지 흡수특성을 보였다. 하이브리드 [$90_C/0_K$]튜브의 경우 국부좌굴모드에 의해 에너지를 흡수했으며 우수한 압축후 구조온전성 특성을 보였다. [$90_K/0_C$] 튜브의 경우 주 파손모드는 단층굽힘모드이고 압축후 구조온전성이 확보되지 못했다.

The prediction of VIV amplitude is essential for the design and fatigue life estimation of steel tubes in tubular transmission towers. Limited to costly and time-consuming traditional experimental and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods, a machine learning (ML)-based method is proposed to efficiently predict the VIV amplitude of steel tubes in transmission towers. Firstly, by introducing the first-order mode shape to the two-dimensional CFD method, a simplified response analysis method (SRAM) is presented to calculate the VIV amplitude of steel tubes in transmission towers, which enables to build a dataset for training ML models. Then, by taking mass ratio M^*, damping ratio ξ, and reduced velocity U^* as the input variables, a Kriging-based prediction method (KPM) is further proposed to estimate the VIV amplitude of steel tubes in transmission towers by combining the SRAM with the Kriging-based ML model. Finally, the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed methods are demonstrated by using three full-scale steel tubes with C-shaped, Cross-shaped, and Flange-plate joints, respectively. The results show that the SRAM can reasonably calculate the VIV amplitude, in which the relative errors of VIV maximum amplitude in three examples are less than 6%. Meanwhile, the KPM can well predict the VIV amplitude of steel tubes in transmission towers within the studied range of M^*, ξ and U^*. Particularly, the KPM presents an excellent capability in estimating the VIV maximum amplitude by using the reduced damping parameter S_G.

The phenomena of energy separation in vortex tubes was investigated experimentally to see the subsidiary effect of the conductivity of tube material and cooling conditions around the outer surface of the tube. The experiment was carried out with pyrex, stainless steel and copper tubes, and the heat transfer conditions of the tubes were with insulation, without in-sulation and water cooling modes respectively The results were obtained that the hot exit fluid temperature was highly affected by a change of conductivity of a tube when the outer surface was cooled by the water, while the working fluid through the tubes was air. How-ever, the cold exit temperature was little affected by the heat transfer modes on the outer surface of the vortex tube.

Pre-penetration behavior of Boytryosphaeria dothidea on apple fruits was investigated with scanning electron microscopy. Once conidia were deposited on the fruit surface, they germainted and produced germ tubes from one or both ends of the conidia. Germ tubes grew over the fruit surface and entered the fruits through lenticels or surface cracks formed naturally. Germ tubes of the fungus also appeared to penetrated the fruits directly with or without forming appressoria. Globose appressoria were frequently formed at the tip of germ tubes on the fruit surface, where no lenticels or surface cracks were found. The conidia collapsed and became flattened to the fruit surface after appressorial formation. Cuticles of fruit surface underneath appressoria and tips of some germ tubes were evidently altered, indicating possibility of direct penetration of the fungus by enzymatic degradation of the cuticle layers. This the first report on the formation of appressoria by B. dothidea.

Thermoforming of fiber reinforced thermoplastic (FRTP) braided tubes was studied as a new forming technique. FRTP braided tubes with four plies are fabricated by the pressure bonding method are used in thermoforming. Bulge forming, bending process, pipe fittings and FE analysis are carried out in this study. In bulge forming the composite tube can be expanded up to about two times initial diameter. The suggested bending process can be obtained bent products with various bending radii. In pipe fitting it is possible to fabricate T-shape fitting, cross fitting and two-branch fitting. These results exhibit developed forming processes become useful processes for textile composite tubes.
