This paper presents a numerical study conducted for analyzing the effect of the Prandtl number on natural convection in a square enclosure with an inner circular cylinder in various positons. Several Prandtl numbers (Pr = 0.1, 0.7, and 7) and Rayleigh numbers (Ra = $10^3$, $10^4$ and $10^5$) are considered in the numerical study, along with different positions of the inner circular cylinder. The position of the inner circular cylinder is changed in steps of 0.1 in the range of -0.2 to 0.2. The effect of the Prandtl number on natural convection in the enclosure is analyzed on the basis of the thermal and flow fields and the distribution of the Nusselt number. Regardless of the position of the cylinder, when the Rayleigh number is $10^5$, the surface-averaged Nusselt number of the inner cylinder and the enclosure increases as the Prandtl number increases.

Characteristics of heat transfer were investigated in a three-phase swirling fluidized bed whose diameter was 0.102 m and 2.5 m in height. Effects of gas and liquid velocities, particle size and liquid swirling ratio ($R_S$) on the immersed heater-to-bed overall heat transfer coefficient were examined. The heat transfer characteristics between the immersed heater and the bed was well analyzed by means of phase space portraits and Kolmogorov entropy(K) of the time series of temperature difference fluctuations. The phase space portraits of temperature difference fluctuations became stable and periodic and the value of Kolmogorov entropy tended to decrease with increasing the value of liquid swirling ratio from 0.1 to 0.4. The value of Kolmogorov entropy exhibited its minimum with increasing liquid swirling ratio. The value of overall heat transfer coefficient (h) showed its maximum with the variation of liquid velocity, bed porosity or liquid swirling ratio, but it increased with increasing gas velocity and particle size. The value of K exhibited its maximum at the liquid velocity at which the h value attained its maximum. The overall heat transfer coefficient and Kolmogorov entropy were well correlated in terms of dimensionless groups and operating variables.

Proton exchange membrane fuel cell performance is changed by the complicated physical phenomenon. In this study, water discharge performance of proton exchange membrane fuel cell were performed numerically to compare serpentine channel flow fields of 5-pass 4-turn serpentine and 25 $cm^2$ reaction surface between with and without sub-channel at the rib. Through the supplement of sub channel flow field, it is shown from the results that water removal characteristic inside channel improves because the flow direction of under-rib convection is changed into the sub channel. Reacting gases supplied from entrance disperse into sub channel flow field and electrochemical reaction occurs uniformly over the reaction surface. The results obtained that total current density distributions become uniform because residence time of reacting gases traveling to sub-channel flow field is longer than to main channel.

새만금호의 완공이후 내부 개발이 완료된 시점에서 만경강 및 동진강 홍수량 유입이 담수호의 수위 및 유속등 수리특성에 어떠한 변화를 가져올 것인가를 평가하기 위한 수치실험이 내부 관리수위(DL=-0.5m, DL=-1.0m, DL=-1.5m)별로 실시되었다. 홍수파의 전파에 따른 동적거동을 이상적으로 모의하기 위해서 본 연구에서는 2차원 수심적분의 모형인 ADCIRC 모형을 새만금 하구호에 적용하였다. 상류의 유입 경계조건으로는 50년 빈도의 홍수수문곡선도를 사용하여 만경강과 동진강의 유입량이 30분 간격으로 변화되는 홍수량을 이용하였다. 하류의 경계조건으로는 신시 수문이 외해의 조위와 내부 관리수위와 연동되어 외조위가 낮아질 때만 수문이 열리는 조건을 설정하는 동적인 경계조건이 설정되었다. 홍수 계산은 4일에 걸쳐 실시되어 새만금호 내부에서 수위와 유속의 변화를 관찰하였다. 만경수계내 홍수파의 동적 거동은 시간이 경과함에 따라 홍수파가 하류로 전파되어 수위와 유속 변화가 크게 나타난다. 만경강 유입부에서는 홍수수문곡선의 시간적 변화가 민감하게 작용하는 반면, 홍수파 전파가 하류로 진행하면서 유입부에서 높아졌던 수위가 새만금호 내부에서는 점차 낮아지면서 안정화 되는 것을 보여주고 있다. 그러나 수문이 위치한 지점에서는 유입 홍수에 의한 영향은 거의 나타나지 않고, 신시수문의 개방에 따라 동적으로 변동되는 것이 지배적이다. 유속 모의 결과 상류 수로부에서는 $1.8m/s\~0.5m/s$로 나타나지만 새만금호에 진입하면서 $0.5m/s\~0.2m/s$의 낮은 유속으로 변한다. 신시 갑문 인근에서는 수문을 닫을 때 일시적인 충격파가 내부로 전파되면서 와동현상을 보이는 등 유속과 수위 변화에 있어 동적으로 복잡한 거동을 보이는 것으로 해석 된다.한 영향을 미치는 인자에 대한 이론적인 분석을 수행하고, 배수갑문 개방에 의한 수질개선효과를 최대화하기 위한 환경관리 방안 제시에 중점을 두어 수행하였다.ncy), 환경성(environmental feasibility) 등을 정성적으로(qualitatively) 파악하여 실현가능한 대안을 선정하였다. 이렇게 선정된 대안들은 중유역별로 검토하여 효과가 있을 것으로 판단되는 대안들을 제시하는 예비타당성(Prefeasibility) 계획을 수립하였다. 이렇게 제시된 계획은 향후 과학적인 분석(세부평가방법)을 통해 대안을 평가하고 구체적인 타당성(feasibility) 계획을 수립하는데 토대가 될 것이다.{0.11R(mm)}(r^2=0.69)$로 나타났다. 이는 토양의 투수특성에 따라 강우량 증가에 비례하여 점증하는 침투수와 구분되는 현상이었다. 경사와 토양이 같은 조건에서 나지의 경우 역시 $Ro_{B10}(mm)=20.3e^{0.08R(mm)(r^2=0.84)$로 지수적으로 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 유거수량은 토성별로 양토를 1.0으로 기준할 때 사양토가 0.86으로 가장 작았고, 식양토 1.09, 식토 1.15로 평가되어 침투수에 비해 토성별 차이가 크게 나타났다. 이는 토성이 세립질일 수록 유거수의 저항이 작기 때문으로 생각된다. 경사에 따라서는 경사도가 증가할수록 증가하였으며 $10\% 경사일 때를 기준으로 $Ro(mm)=Ro_{10}{\times}0.797{\times}e^{-0.021s(\%)}$로 나타났다.천성 승모판 폐쇄 부전등을 초래하는 심각한 선천성 심질환이다. 그러나 진단 즉시 직접 좌관상동맥-대동맥 이식술로 수술적 교정을 해줌으로써 좋은 성적을 기대할 수 있음을 보여주었다.특히 교사들이 중요하게 인식

Microcapsules consisting of natural, biodegradable polymers for controlled and/or sustained core release applications are needed. Physicochemical properties of whey proteins suggest that they may be suitable wall materials in developing such microcapsules. The objectives of the research were to develop water-insoluble, whey protein-based microcapsules containing a model water-soluble drug using a chemical cross-linking agent, glutaraldehyde, and to investigate core release from these capsules at simulated physiological conditions. A model water soluble drug, theophylline, was suspended in whey protein isolate (WPI) solution. The suspension was dispersed in a mixture of dichloromethane and hexane containing 1% biomedical polyurethane. Protein matrices were cross-linked with 7.5-30 ml of glutaraldehyde-saturated toluene (GAST) for 1-3 hr. Microcapsules were harvested, washed, dried and analyzed for core retention, microstructure, and core release in enzyme-free simulated gastric fluid (SGF) and simulated intestinal fluid (SIF) at 37$^{\circ}C$, A method consisting of double emulsification and heat gelation was also developed to prepare water-insoluble, whey protein-based microcapsules containing anhydrous milkfat (AMF) as a model apolar core. AMF was emulsified into WPI solution (15-30%, pH 4.5-7.2) at a proportion of 25-50% (w/w, on dry basis). The oil-in-water emulsion was then added and dispersed into corn oil (50 $^{\circ}C$)to form an O/W/O double emulsion and then heated at 85$^{\circ}C$ for 20 min for gelation of whey protein wall matrix. Effects of emulsion composition and pH on core retention, microstructure, and water-solubility of microcapsules were determined. Overall results suggest that whey proteins can be used in developing microcapsules for controlled and sustained core release applications.

In the case of metal-induced lateral crystallization (MILC) for low temperature poly-Si TFT, offset length between Ni-thin film and the sides of gate could be modified to control the location of MILC boundary. Electrical characteristics were compared to analyze the effect of MILC boundary that was located either in or out of the channel region of the TFT. By removing the MILC boundary from channel region, on current, subthreshold slope and leakage current properties could be improved. When MILC boundary was located in the channel region, leakage current was reduced with electrical stress biasing. The amount of reduction increased as the channel width increased, but it was independent of the channel length.

In order to develop a backtracking technique for turbidity measurement data without discriminatory characteristics, three turbidity backtracking techniques for predicting inflow turbidity of a stream were compared using real-time turbidity data measured at automatic water quality measurement points located upstream and downstream of the stream and the Py_STPS model. Three turbidity backtracking techniques were applied: 1) simple preservation method of turbidity load considering flow time, 2) a method of using the flow rate at the upstream boundary considering the flow time as the flow rate at the downstream boundary, 3) method of introducing internal reaction rate to reflect the behavior characteristics of turbidity-causing substances. As a result of applying the three backtracking models, it was confirmed that the backtracking technique that introduced the internal reaction rate had the best results.

This study discusses numerically-explored thermal performances of hybrid fin heat sinks (HF HSs) for lightweight thermal management of LED modules under natural convection. A hollow hybrid fin heat sink (HHF HS) and a solid hybrid fin heat sink (SHF HS) are proposed as HF HSs. A 3-D CFD analysis has been carefully conducted to obtain reliable numerical results. The 3-D CFD study investigates the effects of both fin spacing and an internal channel diameter on performances of the HHF HS and the SHF HS. The study results show that the mass-based thermal resistance of the HHF HS is 20~32% smaller compared with the pin fin heat sink (PF HS). The results also show that the mass-based thermal resistance of the HHF HS decreases with the increase of the channel diameter. These results are mainly due to coupled effects of the mass reduction and heat pumping through an internal channel. Considerably superior mass-based thermal performances of the HHF HS to the conventional PF HS suggest the feasible application for the lightweight thermal management of the LED modules under natural convection.

This paper investigates the effect of the rotational motion of a driving fluid generated by a rotational motion device at the inlet of a driving nozzle for a gas-liquid ejector, which is the main device used for ozonated ship ballast water treatment. An experimental apparatus was constructed to study the pressure and suction flow rate of each port of the ejector according to the back pressure. Experimental data were acquired for the ejector without rotational motion. Based on the data, a finite element model was then developed. The rotational motion of the driving fluid could improve the suction efficiency of the ejector based on the CFD model. Based on the CFD results, structure optimization was performed for the internal shape of the rotation induction device to increase the suction flow rate of the ejector, which was performed using the kriging technique and a metamodel. The optimized rotation induction device improved the ejector efficiency by about 3% compared to an ejector without rotational motion of the driving fluid.
