The volume of fluid method is used to investigate the behavior of a liquid water slug in a PEMFC trapezoidal gas channel(GC) with a open angle of 60 degrees. To evaluate the effect of the contact angle of the top and side walls, the gas diffusion layer water coverage ratio(GWCR) and water volume fraction(WVF) in a inspection control volume are analyzed. As the contact angle increases, GWCR increases and WVF decreases. The cases with the GC contact angle of 60 and 80 degrees show the more favorable water removal characteristics compared to the other cases in a GC flooding condition.

차량-궤도 구조물 동적 상호작용해석은 차량의 접촉점이 보요소로 모형화된 레일 위를 일정한 속도로 주행하는 미끄러지 는 접촉문제로 취급하였다. 하지만 Euler 보와 같은 고차 다항식의 형상함수가 적용된 유한요소를 사용할 경우 미끄러지는 접촉문제에서 적합조건을 만족하지 못한다. 이 연구에서는 유한요소해석프로그램이 미끄러지는 접촉문제에서의 적합조건을 만족시키지 못하는 것에 대한 해결법으로 주행로를 이루는 보요소를 보다 세분화하여 동적상호작용해석에서의 정확성을 확 보하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 간단한 예제들을 통해 주행로를 이루는 보요소의 세분화 정도에 따른 동적상호작용해석의 거동 을 분석하였으며, 해석 프로그램의 동적상호작용해석에의 적용성을 평가하였다. 마지막으로 사각을 갖는 철도 암거 접속부 의 뒷채움재 설치 형식에 따른 차량주행시의 거동을 평가하기 위하여 동적상호작용해석을 수행하고, 접속부 뒷채움재 형식 의 변경에 따른 지지강성의 변화에 의한 영향과 노반침하에 따른 궤도틀림의 영향을 비교분석하였다.

국내 고속도로는 아래 fig 1.(left)과 같이 1970년 개통한 경부고속도로를 시작으로 2010년대에 접어들면서 전국에 도로 네트워크를 구성하였다. 최근 노후화된 포장의 증가로 도로 포장 유지관리에 대한 필요성이 증가하고 있으며, fig 1.(right)는 보수 기법으로 아스팔트 덧씌우기의 비율이 약 62%로 지배적인 것을 보여준다. 하지만, 아스팔트 덧씌우기 또는 복합 포장의 부착 상태가 불량할 경우 포장 수명의 최대 80%까지 감소된다는 연구결과가 보고되었음에도(Khweir and Fordyce, 2003), 국내에서는 명확한 평가 기준이 마련되어 있지 않다. 따라서, 본 연구는 기존 콘크리트 포장 위 아스팔트 덧씌우기의 부착 저항성 평가 방법에 대한 기준을 제시하고, 온도와 표면 거칠기에 따른 부착 거동 특성을 정의하였다. 실험 방법으로는 부착 파손의 결정적인 전단 모드에 대하여 평가하였으며, 장비는 Direct Shear Tester를 이용하여 평가하였으며, 실험의 반복성을 향상시키기 위해 포장 거칠기 모사 시편을 제작하여 평가하였다. 평가 결과 온도와 표면 거칠기에 따라 영향을 받는 것을 확인하였으며, 높은 온도에서 낮은 최대 전단강도를 보였고, 표면 거칠기에 따라서는 MTD가 가장 높은 6mm Tinning이 아닌 Undersealing 표면에서 가장 높은 최대 전단강도를 나타내었다. 다음 fig 2.는 다양한 온도에서 표면 거칠기에 따른 전단 거동을 비교한 그래프이다.

Recently EC-MBR (Elctrocoagulation - Membrane Bio Reactor) has been suggested as one of alternative processes to overcome membrane fouling problems. Most important operational parameters in the EC-MBR are known to current density and contact time. Their effect on membrane filtration performances has been reported well, however, quantitative interrelationship between both parameters not been investigated yet. The purpose of this study is to give a kinetic model suggesting the current density and the contact time required to reduce the membrane fouling. The 4 different set of current densities (2.5, 6, 12 and 24 A/m2) and contact times (0, 2, 6 and 12 hr) were selected as operational parameters. After each electro-coagulation under the 16 different conditions, a series of membrane filtration was carried out. The membrane fouling decreased as the current density and contact time increased, Total fouling resistances under different conditions, Rt(=Rc+Rf) were calculated and compared to those of the controls (R0), which were calculated from the data of experiments without electro-coagulation. A kinetic approach for the fouling reduction rate (Rt / R0) was carried out and the equation ρi0.46t=7.0 was obtained, which means that the product of current density and the contact time needed to reduce the fouling in certain amounts (in this study, 10% of fouling reduction) is always constant.

In this study, a direct contact membrane module was manufactured to be used in a pilot scale membrane distillation process to treat 3 m3/day of the digestate produced from anaerobic digestion of livestock manure. In order to investigate the performance of the membrane module, permeate flux was measured with and without spacer inside the module under various condition of temperature difference and cross flow velocity (CFV) through the membrane surfaces. Flux recovery rate after chemical cleaning was also investigated by applying three different cleaning methods. Additionally, thermal energy consumption was theoretically simulated based on actual pilot plant operation conditions. As results, we observed flux of the module with spacer was almost similar to the theoretically predicted value because the installation of spacer reduced the channeling effect inside the module. Under the same operating condition, the permeate flux also increased with increasing temperature difference and CFV. As a result of chemical in-line cleaning using NaOCl and citric acid for the fouled membranes, the recovery rate was 83.7% compared to the initial flux when NaOCl was used alone, and 87% recovery rate was observed when only citric acid was used. However, in the case of using only citric acid, the permeate flux was decreased at a rapid rate. It seemed that a cleaning by NaOCl was more effective to recover the flux of membrane contaminated by the organic matter as compared to a cleaning by citric acid. The total heat energy consumption increased with increasing CFV and temperature difference across the membrane. Thus, further studies should be intensively conducted to obtain a high permeate flux while keeping the energy consumption to a minimum for a practical application of membrane distillation process to treat wastewater.

we present a novel pressure-cascaded stripping configuration for membrane contactor biogas upgrading processes. Employing polypropylene (PP) hollow fiber membrane modules and water as physical absorbent, the effects of absorption pressure, gas-liquid flowrate, and vacuum mode were systematically studied. In addition, exploiting the solubility difference between CO2 and CH4, as well as the preferential absorption of CO2 in water, a pressure-cascaded stripping tank was implemented to recover and recycle the absorbed CH4 in high purity. The proposed configuration simultaneously enhanced the bio-methane yield (90%) and purity (97%). This project is supported by the "R&D Center for reduction of Non-CO2 Greenhouse gases (2013001690002)" funded by Korea Ministry of Environment(MOE) as "Global Top Environment R&D Program".

Rolling contact fatigue(RCF) is a major cause of failure that appears in components of rolling contacts. In the recent years, the fatigue propagation and failure have been an important issue in respect of the safe operation and to reduce the noise and vibration of the rolling contact components. The water-contaminated lubrication is known to be one of the significant factors that reduces the lifetime of the rolling contact components. Thus, in this study, the effect of water-contaminated lubrication environment on the rolling contact fatigue was investigated. Bearing life testing was performed in two different lubrication conditions (i.e. normal lubrication environment and water-contaminated lubrication environment). The effect of the debirs on the rolling contact fatigue could be eliminated by establishing the debris filter system. Microscopic features of the rolling contact surfaces were examined using energy dispersive spectrometry and non-contact 3D measurement system. In the case of the water-contaminated lubrication, the increase of surface roughness values up to 17.6% was observed. The oxidation state and pattern of the rolling contact surfaces were very different depending on the lubrication environment. It was also found that the bearing rating life,   , was decreased significantly in the watercontaminated lubrication condition. The amount of reduction was about 49.7%.

The vibration of wheel is mainly affected by a fault on a wheel contacting with railway when average speed is over 60km/h. When the wheel vibration caused by wheel scratch increase more than a certain criterion, the wheel is shaved to reduce the vibration. This criterion of shaving is determined from the acceleration signal measured from the sensor mounted on the railway. In this study, vibration characteristics of the rolling wheels having a fault is analyzed with experimental approach to verify the acceleration criterion for shaving wheel.

Shale gas has become increasingly important as a viable alternative to conventional gas resources. However, one of the critical issues in the development of shale gas is the generation of produced water, which contains high concentration of ionic compounds (> TDS of 100,000 mg/L). Accordingly, membrane distillation (MD) was considered to treat such produced water. Experiments were carried out using a laboratory-scale direct contact MD (DCMD). Synthetic produced water was prepared to examine its fouling propensity in MD process. Antiscalants and in-line filtration were applied to control fouling by scale formation. Fouling rates (-dJ/dt) were calculated for in-depth analysis of fouling behaviors. Results showed that severe fouling occurred during the treatment of high range produced water (TDS of 308 g/L). Application of antiscalant was not effective to retard scale formation. On the other hand, in-line filtration increased the induction time and reduced fouling.

Recently, in construction vehicles like exacavator, many customers demand the interior parts to be convenient and handy to operate. Futermore, that parts had to be more lightweight and better quality and durability. For this reaseon, the combination switch, a part for operation of head lamps, wipers, horn, etc, had been designed as a new lightweight structure by using PA plastics material and had been changed the mechanical contact into electric non-contact by using Hall IC and FET.

The MLCC electronic materials are used to make many industrial parts, for instance, such as smart phone, radio, LCD TV and so on. The screen ways and the rotor ways are known as methods that form electrode in MLCC. In these days, rotor ways have been frequently utilized because of its stability of quality. In this study, mixing characteristics for the inside of barrel of planetary mixer driver were investigated by numerical analysis using k-ε model of unsteady state, including effects for rotation and revolution. As the results, it showed that the flow of radius direction was mixed with regular pattern depending on time, however, the flow of longitudinal direction was mixed with same pattern regardless of time.

Membrane distillation (MD) is a novel separation process that have drawn attention as an affordable alternative to conventional desalination processes. However, membrane fouling and pore wetting are issues to be addressed prior to widespread application of MD. In this study, the influence of ultrasonic irradiation on fouling and wetting of MD membranes was investigated for better understanding of the MD process. Experiments were carried out using a direct contact membrane distillation apparatus Colloidal silica was used as a model foulants in a synthetic seawater (35,000 mg/L NaCl solution). A vibrator was directed attached to membrane module to generate ultrasonic waves from 25 kHz (the highest energy) to 75 kHz (the lowest energy). Flux and TDS for the distillate water were continuously monitored. Results suggested that ultrasonic irradiation is effective to retard flux decline due to fouling only in the early stage of the MD operation. Moreover, wetting occurred by a long-term application of ultrasonic rradiation at 75 kHz. These results suggest that the conditions for ultrasonic irradiation should be carefully optimized to maximize fouling control and minimize pore wetting.
