This paper reports the fluid flow and heat transfer around a module cooled by forced air flow generated by a piezoelectric(PZT) cooling fan. A flexible PZT fan with distortion in a fluid transport system of comparatively simple structure which was mounted on a PCB in a parallel-plate channel($450{\times}80{\times}700mm^3$) accelerates surrounding fluid locally. Input voltages of 20-100V and a resonance frequency of 23Hz were used to vibrate the cooling fan. Input power to the module was 4W. The cooling effect using a PZT fan was larger than that of free convection. Fluid flow around the module were visualized by using PIV system. The temperature distribution around heated module were visualized by using liquid crystal film(LCF). We found that the flow type was y-shaped and the cooling effect was increased by the wake generated by a piezoelectric cooling fan.

급속 표면가열과 기존의 전기로 열처리에서 얻어지는 경화의 가장 중요한 차이점은 전자가 불균질한 오스테나이트를 생성할 수도 있다는 것이다. 즉, 오스테나이트에 미용해 탄화물이 존재할 수도 있고 탄소와 합금원소의 농도 구배가 존재할 수도 있다. 합금강에서, 이러한 탄화물은 합금성분이 비교적 높기 때문에 철 탄화물에 비해서는 좀 더 천천히 기지에 용해된다. 또한 망간, 크롬, 니켈 및 몰리브덴과 같은 치환형 합금원소는 천천히 확산한다. 따라서, 균일한 오스테나이트를 생성하기 위해서는 더 많은 시간과 더 높은 온도가 요구된다. 그러나 표면 구역의 낮은 경화능에도 불구하고 냉각속도가 마르텐사이트의 체적분율이 큰 미세조직을 확보할 만큼 충분히 크기 때문에 경도는 높게 된다.

To develop more compact and light generators which have high capacity, the most important thing that should be considered is the inner cooling system. Under all circumstances, the temperature of rotor and stator windings must be kept below the maximum temperature of insulation to maintain reliability and prolong durability of the machine. Therefore, the development of more effective cooling system and the exact prediction of windings are essential to produce our unique generator model which is reliable and competitive in international market. In this study, the flow of cooling air and the temperature distribution of winding is analyzed by using computational fluid dynamics. This analysis can lead to optimize the structure of cooling system and predict a local temperature rise.

가스터빈 연소기의 난류유동장을 구성하는 기본적인 유동형태는 크게 밀폐관내의 돌연 확대를 가지는 동축제트, 선회유동, 그리고 연소공기공 및 회석공기공을 통해 연소실에 수직방향으로 유입되는 제트유동 등으로 분류할 수 있다. 실제 가스터빈 연소기내의 난류유동장을 수치해석하기 위해서는 임의의 형상을 갖는 3차원 유동장을 모사할 수 있는 수치해석법과 고차정확도를 유지하면서도 수렴안정성을 만족시키는 대류항 처리기법 등과 같은 수치모델의 개발이 선행되어야 하며, 이와 함께 복잡한 난류연소유동장을 정확히 묘사할 수 있는 난류모델 및 난류연소모델의 개발 및 검증이 가장 중요한 요인이 된다. 또한 가스터빈 연소기의 최적 설계는 넓은 작동구간에서 높은 효율, NOx 및 CO 배기량의 저감, 희박연소 가연한계의 확장, 연소계통에서의 낮은 압력강하, 낮은 연소벽면온도와 온도구배를 유지시키기 위한 공기에 의한 충분한 냉각 같은 서로 상충되는 설계조건을 만족해야 한다. 그리고, 이러한 상충된 연소설계조건들을 충족시키는 최적 연소기의 설계를 위해서는 실험적인 연구뿐만 아니라 연소기내의 물리적인 현상을 잘 반영할 수 있는 물리적 모델을 바탕으로 한 연소유동의 해석적인 연구를 필요로 한다. 본 연구에서는 원통형 가스터빈 연소기의 등온 및 연소유동장, 그리고 연소기와 연결되는 Scroll 내부의 난류유동장에 대한 수치해석을 수행하여 수치 및 물리모델의 예측능력을 검증하였고, 가스터빈 연소유동장 해석에 관련된 중요 논점들에 대하여 심도있게 분석하였다.

5년 동안 진행된 고진공 펌프 개발 사업의 일환으로 맥동관형 냉동기에 활성탄 어레이를 장착한 흡기구 직경 14인치 국산 크라이오펌프 완제품이 만들어졌다. 이미 지난해에 완성한 시제품을 가지고 모든 배기성능시험을 완료하고 목표를 뛰어 넘는 성능을 가지고 있음을 입증하였지만 완제품의 경우는 현장에서 스퍼터링 공정에 대한 신뢰성과 열적 내구성 시험이 중요한 항목으로 대두되었다. 개발된 펌프를 생산 공정에 직접 투입하는 모험을 하지 않으면서도 신뢰성을 확보하는 방편으로 카이스트 나노종합팹 센터에서 가동중인 스퍼터링 장비에 완제품을 달고 기존 공정과 같은 방식으로 장치를 운영하면서 외제 상용품을 사용했을 때와 진공성능 및 공정수율을 비교하는 시험을 수행하였다. 또 내구성 시험 항목으로 열부하 시험과 열 사이클 시험을 수행하였다. 열부하 시험은 300도까지 온도를 올릴 수 있는 열판을 펌프 흡기구 배플 앞에 설치하여, 냉동기 2차 냉각단 온도가 20 K 이하로 유지될 수 있는 최대 허용 복사열을 측정하는 방식으로 진행되었으며 열 사이클 시험은 크라이오 펌프의 활성화 기능을 활용하여 완전 활성화(full regen., 10K-300K-10K) 과정을 10회 연속 시행하여 펌프의 배기성능과 기계적 이상 유무를 관찰하였다.

A cooling system is indispensable for the fossil and nuclear power plants which produce electricity by rotating the turbines with hot steam. A cycle of the typical cooling system includes pumping of seawater at the intake pump house, exchange of heat at the condenser, and discharge of hot water to the sea. The cooling type of the nuclear power plants in Korea recently evolves from the conventional surface intake/discharge systems to the submerged intake/discharge systems that minimize effectively an intake temperature rise of the existing plants and that are beneficial to the marine environment by reducing the high temperature region with an intensive dilution due to a high velocity jet and density differential at the mixing zone. It is highly anticipated that the future nuclear power plants in Korea will accommodate the submerged cooling system in credit of supplying the lower temperature water in the summer season. This study investigates the approach flow patterns at the velocity caps and discharge flow patterns from diffusers using the 3-D computational fluid dynamics code of $FLOW-3D^{(R)}$. The approach flow test has been conducted at the velocity caps with and without a cap. The discharge flow from the diffuser was simulated for the single-port diffuser and multi-ports diffuser. The flow characteristics to the velocity cap with a cap demonstrate that fish entrainment can significantly be minimized on account of the low vertical flow component around the cap. The flow pattern around the diffuser is well agreed with the schematic diagram by Jirka and Harleman.

The purpose of this study is to obtain the experimental data of the forced flow dryout heat flux in a heat generating debris bed which simulates the degraded nuclear reactor core after severe accident. An experimental investigation has been conducted of dryout heat flux in an inductively heated bed of steel particles with upward forced flow rising coolant circulation system under atmospheric pressure. The present observations were mainly focused on the effects of coolant mass flux, particle size, bed height, and coolant subcooling on the dryout heat flux The data were obtained when carbon steel particles in the size distribution 1.5, 2.5, 3.0 and 4.0 mm were placed in a 55 mm ID Pyrex glass column and inductively heated by passing radio frequency current through a multiturn work coil encircling the column. Distilled water was supplied with variation of mass flux from 0 to 3.5 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ s as a coolant in the tests, while the bed height was selected as 55 mm and 110 mm. Inlet temperature of coolant varied by 2$0^{\circ}C$ and 8$0^{\circ}C$. The principal results of the tests are: (1) Dryout heat flux increases with increase of upward forcing mass flux and particle size; (2) The dryout heat flux at the zero mass flux obviously depends on the Particle size as Previous studies; (3) The forced flow dryout heat flux in the shallow bed is somewhat higher than that in the deep bed,

The critical condition for onset of Benard convection with variable viscosity .nu.=.nu.$_{0}$exp(-CT) has been obtained using a linear stability theory. The bottom wall is rigid while the upper surface may be either free or rigid. The two boundaries are subject to convective heat transfer. The critical Rayleigh numbers are presented up to maximum viscosity ratio of 3000. It is greater for smaller upper and/or lower surface Biot numbers. Its dependence on the viscosity ratio is complicated. However, a simple sublayer theory is found to be applicable for extremely large viscosity ratio. In such cases, the critical Rayleigh number and the critical wave number are functions of viscosity ratio and lower surface Biot number.r.

In this study, the cooling characteristics of combustion gas were investigated by injecting liquid nitrogen ($LN_2$) into a liquid rocket combustion chamber, which uses liquid oxygen (Lox) and kerosene as propellants. $LN_2$ injectors and an extended chamber for mixing were installed at the end of the ordinary LRE combustion chamber, and a nozzle was installed after the chamber for mixing. First, an ignition test of the liquid rocket engine was conducted to verify the stable combustion process. Next, a hot firing test was performed step-by-step for safety. Finally, the test was performed for 20 s. The results showed that the combustion gas of the LRE could be successfully cooled by using $LN_2$.

Fatty acid fraction rich in ${\omega}-3$ polyunsaturated fatty acids (${\omega}-3$, PUFA), especially eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) could be obtained by saponification of fish oil in ethanol containing alkali hydroxide followed by cooling and filtration of the resultant solution. Fatty acid compositions of fish oil and the concentrates suggest that the ratio of number of double bonds to carbon number in a fatty acid molecule is a more important factor than the degree of unsaturation or the chain length in determining the solubility of fatty acid salts in ethanol. Water content in ethano1 affected significantly the efficiency of the separation with respect to yield and content of EPA and DHA in the concentrates; the lower the water content, the higher the efficiency. It was, however, influenced little by cooling procedure and temperature which the saponified solution experienced during the crystallization. Under an optimal condition, the contents of EPA and DHA in the concentrate increased by 2.4 and 2.5 times, respectively, as compared with those in sardine oil.
