The main object of this study is to investigate the collection characteristics of wet-type rotating porous disk system experimentally. The experiment is carried out to analyze the pressure drop and collection efficiency for the present system with the experimental parameters such as system inlet velocity, stage number, tube diameter, inlet concentration, etc. In results, for the present system, at 5 stage and ${\upsilon}_{in}=1.8m/s$, the pressure drop becomes significantly lower as $64mmH_2O$ in comparison with that of the conventional wet type scrubber (Venturi scrubber, over $250mmH_2O$). The collection efficiencies increase with higher inlet velocity showing 92, 95.7, 98.4%, while $SO_2$ removal efficiencies decrease with increment of inlet velocity as 80, 65, 50% at ${\upsilon}_{in}=1.08$, 1.44, 1.8 m/s and tube diameter $D_t=10mm$, respectively. The present system is to be considered as an effective compact system for a simultaneous removal of particle/gas phase pollutants from marine diesel engines.

In this study, an automatic spraying lubrication system was developed to maintain the cleanliness of the switchgear when detecting the movement of the track through the switchgear. To develop this system, an air tank, valve block, and spray nozzle were designed, and the safety was secured through the pressure test of the prototype after designing the air tank. Furthermore, the environmental aspect was considered by minimizing the use of lubricant by enabling the mixing of air and lubricant through the production of a valve using the Venturi principle. The performance evaluation was conducted by implementing (producing) the injection system, and the product developed in this study was deemed installable in actual switchgear. It is expected that the proposed system will enable the maintenance of the cleanliness of the track during switching and reduce faults and malfunctions caused by switchgear defects.

This article deals with the introduction of longitudinal instability of liquid rocket (pogo) and the analytical results on the frequency responses of Korean Sounding Rocket (KSR-III) propulsion feeding system. Both the stiffness of bellows and the cavitation volume of venturi affect the frequency response of the feeding system. Especially, bellows has a great roll to reduce the natural frequency of the feeding system. Also, oxidizer and fuel feeding systems of the KSR-III have natural frequencies of about 280Hz and 90Hz, respectively.

Several soil bacteria were found to degrade N-Acylhomoserine lactones (NAHLs), thereby interfering with the bacterial quorum sensing system. In this research, fifteen strains of NAHL degrading rhizobacteria were isolated from potato rhizosphere. Based on phenotypic characteristics and 16S rDNA sequence analyses, the strains were identified as members of genera Bacillus, Streptomyces, Arthrobacter, Pseudomonas and Mesorhizobium. All tested isolates were capable to degrade both synthetic and natural NAHL produced by Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. carotovorum (Pcc) strain EMPCC. In quorum quenching experiments selected isolates, especially Mesorhizobium sp., were markedly reduced the pathogenicity of Pcc strain EMPCC in potato tubers and totally suppressed tissue maceration on potato tubers. These led to consider the latter as a useful biocontrol agent against Pectobacterium spp.

Three-dimensional numerical investigations are carried out to understand the combustion characteristics inside a DLN(dry low NOx) utility gas turbine combustor during the combustion mode change period by applying transient fuel flow rates in fuel supply system as numerical boundary conditions. The numerical solution domain comprises the complex combustor liner including cooling air holes, three types of fuel nozzles, a swirl vane, and a venturi. Detailed three-dimensional flow and temperature fields before and after combustion mode changeover have been analyzed. The results may be useful for further studies on the unfavorable phenomena, such as flashback or thermal damage of combustor parts when the combustion mode changes.

This research was carried on an 8100cc turbo-charged heavy duty diesel in the application of a cooled-EGR. Exhaust and intake manifold were modified and an electronically controlled EGR was installed in order to investigate engine performance and exhausted emission characteristics. High pressure route was designed in the compact form on the purpose of practicability in this cooled-EGR system, which constitutes a venturi tube to maintain pressure difference between exhaust manifold and compressor, an EGR cooler, an EGR valve and a solenoid valve.

To evaluate parameters influencing on the dust removal of the High Temperature Filter(HTF) system, a computer simulation of fluid dynamics inside the system had been performed. The results showed that the optimum pulse jet periods were 50ms and 90ms for the 1000mm and 1500mm long filter elements respectively. Dust removal effect was very excellent under the pulse jet pressure of 3 bar. But the distance between the pulse jet nozzle and the venturi of a filter element had no meaningful effect on the performance with the variation from 5mm to 10mm. Compared to the dispersion mode of pulse jet, the collective mode of pulse jet flow was preferable in maintaining the pressure inside the system stable.

Waste activated sludge from sewage treatment plants mainly consisted of flocs of bacterial cell, and thus hard to be stabilized anaerobically due to rigid cell walls. One of the pretreatment methods to overcome this barrier is the venturi cavitation system (VCS) adopting hydrodynamic cavitation. This research was conducted to investigate the effects of the pretreatment of waste activated sludge by VCS on the anaerobic digestibility. Depending on the pretreatment period with the VCS, methane production, COD removal and VS removal efficiency increased 41%~45%, 36.5%~43.1% and 18.4~24.1%, respectively, compared to the control case. The increase in methane production from digester was 3.3~4.2 times higher than the theoretical methane potential of the increased SCOD after the VCS pre-treatment. This suggests that the VCS pre-treatment not only increases SCOD but also improves the digestibility of solid fractions. The energy mass balance indicated that the energy consumed for sludge pre-treatment could be recovered by the increased methane production after pre-treatment, suggesting the high potential for field application.

Thermal output in a nuclear power plant is verified with calorimetric heat balance on the secondary plant. The calorimetry involves the precise measurement of the feedwater flow rate. However, the correct indication of feedwater flow rate obtained by a pressure-difference measurement across a venturi can be affected by instrument errors, fouling or a poorly developed velocity profile. This can result in an inaccurate mass flow rate and consequently an inaccurate estimate of power. The purpose of this study is to develop verification methods with accuracy better than $0.5\%$ for high precision flow measurement to be used for measuring feedwater flow rate. This chemical tracer method is a testing process that uses tracers which can be applied to quantify losses in electrical output due to the incorrect measurements of feedwater flow rate. And this system has good response to the variation of the flow rate. Accuracy of better than 0.5 percent can be expected for feedwater flow measurement, providing that the system can be stabilized during the test. This methodology is applicable to other flow systems well.

In a large diameter piping system, high frequency energy can produce excessive noise, high vibration, and failures of thermo-well, instrumentation, and attached small-bore piping. High frequency energy is generated by flow induced vibration like vortex shedding in orifices and valves. Once this energy is generated, amplification may occur from acoustical and/or structural resonances, resulting in high amplitude vibration and noise. At low frequencies, pipe vibration occurs laterally along the pipe's length, but at higher frequencies, the pipe shell wall vibrates radially across its cross-section. The simple beam analogy which is based on the beam mode vibration can not be applied to evaluate shell mode vibration. ASME OM3 recommends that the stress be measured directly by strain gauge and be evaluated according to the fatigue curves of the piping material. This Paper discusses the excitation and amplification mechanism relevant to high frequency energy generation in piping system, the monitoring method of the shell mode vibration in ASME OM3, the evaluation method generally used in the industry. Finally this paper presents the stress evaluation of the cavitating venturi down stream piping, where high frequency shell mode vibrations were observed during the operation.
