In this paper, we study effect of the factors, participating in the combustion as the initial conditions, such as the flow characteristics of the mixture and the initial temperature, pressure and equivalence ratio in the chamber on the ignitability of the mixture, the combustion duration and the maximum combustion-pressure. The experiment was performed in a constant-volume combustion chamber, with turbulent flow inside, equivalent to the actual engine at TDC. The present experiment utilizes three devices which differ from each other in the distribution and the magnitude of discharge energy.

Many artificial steel reefs are being built in Japan, however, in Korea, only few steel reefs were manufactured by POSCO, recently. In order to develop their novel types suitable for marine environments near the Korean Peninsula, it is very important to carry out model tests in the initial design stage. In the Ocean Engineering Wide Tank($L{\times}B{\times}D=30{\times}20{\times}2.5m$) and the Circulating Water Channel of the University of Ulsan, Korea, fluid drag forces acting on models of steel reefs with different sizes are measured in waves and currents. Also numerical predictions based on the Wavier-Stokes equation are made and compared with experimental results.

한국원자력연구원의 파이로 실험 시설인 ACPF (ACP Facility)에는 공학규모 전해환원 반응기가 설치되어 공정 대용량화를 위한 연구가 수행되고 있다 본 연구에서는 전해환원 공정의 Scale-up을 위해 기존 반응기를 개선하여 전해환원 실험을 수행한 결과를 담고 있다. 장치의 대형화 빛 원격운전성 향상을 위해 기존의 전해환원 반응기의 상부 플랜지는 보다 간단하게 정리되었으며 염 이송에 의한 고온 조건 노출 시간을 줄임과 동시에 염 재사용을 목적으로 상부 플랜지는 이중으로 설계되었다. 따라서, 반응 종료후 전극이 설치된 상부 플랜지를 들어 올림으로서 반응기를 불활성 분위기로 유지하는 동시에 전해환원 금속전환체를 회수 할 수 있도록 반응기가 제작되었다. 또한, 새로운 반응기는 용융염 내의 강제 유동을 위해 아르곤 버블링이 가능하도록 설계 제작되었다. 새로 제작 설치된 전해환원 반응기를 사용하여 산화물 분말을 혼합하여 준비한 모의 사용후핵연료를 사용하여 전해환원 실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과, 산화물이 충진된 음극의 전영역에서 고루 96% 이상의 높은 금속전환율을 얻었으며 시간에 따라 선택된 FP들의 용융염 내 거동을 측정하였다. 실리더 형태의 음극에서 Cs, Sr 등의 원소들이 용융염으로 시간에 따라 용출되는 것을 확인하였으며 동시에 반응기 재질인 Fe 등도 일부 용융염에서 검출되었다. 아르곤 버블링에 의한 강제 유동은 전압 및 전류 거동에는 큰 영향을 미치지 못하였으나 염의 휘발량을 증가시켜 영조성올 변화시키는 것으로 측정되었다. ACPF의 전해환원 실험결과를 바탕으로 반응기를 상부 기체상과 하부 액체상으로 나누어 전산모사를 수행하였다 상부 기체상은 유입되는 아르곤 기체와 발생되는 산소기체의 흐름을 모사하는 결과를 얻었으며 온도 및 산소의 분압을 계산하였다. 하부 액체상에서는 전기장을 모사하여 전류 밀도 등을 3차원으로 모사하였다.

There exist two difficulties in the nonlinear wave-body problems. First is the abrupt behavior near the intersection point between the body and the free surface, and second is the far field treatment. In this paper, the far field treatment is considered. The main idea is the Taylor series expansion of free-surface geometry and the application of F.F.T. algorithm. The numerical step is as follows. The velocity potential is expressed by the Green's theorem. and the solution is obtained by iteration method. In the iteration stage, the expressions by the Green's theorem are transformed to the convolution forts with the expansion of free surface by the wave slope. Here F.F.T. is applied, so the computing time can be of O(Nlog N) where N is the number of unknowns. The numerical analysis is carried out and the results are compared with other results in linear floating body problem and nonlinear moving pressure patch problem, and good agreements are obtained. Finally nonlinear floating body radiation problem is carried out with computing time of O(Nlog N).

In this study, a forced ignition method with a plasma jet torch is studied in Mach 2 laboratory scaled wind-tunnel. The hyper-mixer is used as a mixer. For two normal injection cases, the one is collided against a wedge plate of the hyper-mixer and the other is directly injected into the cold main flow. For the first case, the hyper-mixer disperses the injected fuel, leading to the mixing enhancement. Furthermore, the fuel-air mixture is provided into the plasma hot gas, which enhances the combustion performance. However, the direct injection into the main flow method spends amount of fuel without ignition in the cold supersonic flow. In the end, for the forced combustion, it is important to supply the fuel-air mixture into the heat source.

Fluid flow and thermal characteristics of laminar nanofluid(water/Al2O3) flow in a circular U-bend tube have been studied numerically. In this study, the effect of Reynolds number and the solid volume fraction and the impact of the U-bend on the flow field, the heat transfer and pressure drop was investigated. Comparisons with previously published experimental works on horizontal curved tubes show good agreements between the results. Heat transfer coefficient increases by increasing the solid volume fraction of nanoparticles as well as Reynolds number. Also, the presence of the secondary flow in the curve plays a key role in increasing the average heat transfer coefficient. However, the pressure drop curve increases significantly in the tubes with the increase in nanoparticles volume fraction.

Mixing and combustion experiments with a vent slot mixer were performed in Mach 2 supersonic wind tunnel. Helium and hydrogen gases each were used for the mixing and the combustion experiment with a plasma jet (PJ) torch. The vent slot mixer holds plenty of fuel in the downstream mixing region, even though the fuel is transversely injected. In case of the combustion, the injected fuel is ignited by the PJ torch, and then unburned mixture is burned by shock-induced combustion downstream. Thermal choking in the combustor leads to shock trains in the isolator, causing the unstable combustion.

The battery pack, a main component of NEV(Neighborhood Electric Vehicle), needs cooling system when it is charging or discharging to prevent the degradation of the battery charging efficiency. The purpose of this study is to analyse the effects of cooling methods, changing positions of inlet and outlet and changing area ratios of inlet and outlet. It has been observed that in the point of uniform cooling suction from the exit side is more efficient than blowing from the inlet. And there is a suitable inlet/outlet area ratio in maximizing the mass flow rate. The numerical analyse using a commercial code STAR-CCM+ version 4.02 were used for the study.

Present study is concerned with an experimental study on the cooling characteristics of heat-generating components arranged in channels which are made by printed circuit boards. To assess the thermal performance of the heat-generating components arranged by $5\times11$ in flow channel, three variables are used: the velocity of the fluid at the entrance, the height of channel, and row number of the component. The cooling characteristics of the heat-generating components such as the surface temperature rise, the adiabatic temperature rise, the adiabatic heat transfer coefficient, and the effect of thermal wake are compared with the result of the experiment and the numerical analysis. Based on the experiment analysis, some conclusions can be drawn: First of all, the experiment and numerical analysis are identical comparatively; the heat transfer coefficient increases as H/B decreases. Howeve., when H/B is over 7.2, the effect of H/B is rather trivial. The effect is the biggest at the first component from the entrance, and it decreases until the fully developed flow, where it becomes very consistent. The thermal wake function calculated for each row decreases as H/B increases.
