This research was performed to review operating parameters, optimum condition and check characteristic of microbubble generation for using bubble size distribution according to venturi specification. Optimum operating condition have airflow rate 0.3 LPM, 3 bar(pressure tank) and connecting nozzle directly(without valve), it is advantageous to generate microbubble. In case of characteristic of microbubble generation according to venturi specification, effect that nozzle specification affects bubble size distribution is low impact. But considering performance aspects, when using nozzle that throat diameter 3-4 mm, $D_{50}$ are $54.98-61.19{\mu}m$(D3L15, D4L15), fraction of bubble less than $50{\mu}m$ are 0.326, 0.345. And it is superior to others. Besides, $D_{50}$ and fraction of bubble less than $50{\mu}m$ of throat length 20 mm are $49.40-54.98{\mu}m$, 0.447, respectively And nozzle that throat length 20 mm is relatively tendency to generate microbubble stably.

Spray characteristics for the simplex atomizer are investigated. The atomizer was tested with kerosene which is generally used as a fuel for gas turbine engines. But it is very difficult and dangerous to measure spray performance. So water is used as a working fluid for measuring the droplet information. In this study, spray visualization was performed by using ND-Yag Laser and droplet size was measured by using PDPA system by using two different working fluid such as water and test fluid # 2 which has similar characteristics of the kerosene. The test results show that SMD of water bigger than test fluid # 2 about 5$\sim$15 mm because surface tension of water is higher by a factor of 3. But the spray angles and the spray shapes have similarity

In this study, numerical simulations were performed to investigate the steady-state characteristics of a symmetric pintle nozzle by varying the position of the pintle and the altitude. The pintle nozzle shape was used in a linear pintle nozzle that had been analyzed prior to the study, and the boundary conditions of the chamber were considered to be according to the propellant burn-back characteristics. A software was used to perform a verification analysis of the square nozzle, pintle nozzle, and high-altitude conditions with an appropriate analytical technique. The pintle position had three different nozzle throat area conditions-: fully closed, half open, and fully open, and the altitude was set at 0, 5, and 20 km. The study compared the thrust, pintle drive load, and static stability at each condition.

반도체 생산의 주요 공정 중 하나인 세정 공정은 공정 중 발생하는 여러 가지 부산물에 의한오염을 효과적으로 제거하여 수율 향상에 큰 영향을 미친다. 현재 주로 쓰이는 세정 공정은 습식 세정 공정으로 화학 약품을 이용하지만 패턴 손상 및 웨이퍼 대구경화에 따른 문제 등이 대두되어 이를 대체할 세정 공정의 도입이 요구되고 있다. 이에 따라 건식 세정에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있으며 에어로졸 세정이 대표적 공정으로 개발 되었으나 마이크로 단위의 발생 에어로졸 입경으로 인해 패턴 손상 문제를 해결하지 못하였다. 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위하여 응축에 의해 형성되는 입자 크기를 줄이는 것에 관한 연구가 진행되어 왔고, 대응 방안으로 개발된 것이 가스 클러스터 세정이다. 가스 클러스터란 작동 기체의 분자가 수십, 수백 개 뭉쳐있는 형태 (cluster)를 뜻하며 이 때 형성된 클러스터는 수 nm 크기를 가진다. 그리고 짧은 시간의 응축에 의해 수십 nm 크기까지 성장하게 된다. 즉, 입자로 성장할 수 있는 시간과 환경을 형성하지 않음으로써 작은 크기의 클러스터에 의해 패턴 사이의 오염물질을 물리적으로 제거하고 다시 기체상 물질로 환원되어 부산물을 남기지 않는 공정이다. 이러한 작동 환경을 조성하기 위해서는 진공도와 노즐 출구 속도에 대한 설계 단계부터의 이론적 연구를 통한 입자 크기 예측과 세정 조건에 따라서 발생하는 클러스터의 크기 분포 특성을 측정하는 것이 필수적이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 실시간 저압 환경에서의 측정이 가능하며, 다양한 크기의 입자를 실시간으로 측정할 수 있는 particle beam mass spectrometer (PBMS)를 이용하여 세정 공정 중 발생하는 클러스터의 크기 분포를 측정하는 연구를 수행하였다. 클러스터의 측정은 노즐에 유입되는 유량과 냉매 온도를 변수로 하여 수행하였다. 각각의 조건에 따라서 최빈값은 오차범위 내에서 일정한 것을 확인하였으며, 50 nm 이하의 값으로 가스 클러스터 공정이 패턴 손상 없이 오염입자를 제거할 수 있음을 실험적으로 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 유량의 증가에 따라 세정에 사용되는 클러스터의 입경이 증가하며, 냉매 온도가 낮아질수록 클러스터 입경이 증가하는 경향을 확인할 수 있었다. 클러스터 크기는 오염 입자와의 충돌에 의해 작용하는 힘으로 오염입자를 제거하는 메커니즘을 사용하는 가스 클러스터 세정 장치에 있어 중요성이 크다 할 수 있으며 추후 지속적 연구에 의한 세정 기술의 최적화가 기대된다.

Among the various vegetables eggplant and gourd family can stand against high temperature environmental condition, about 35$^{\circ}C$. However, most of greenhouse farmers are giving up crop cultivation during hot summer season due to extreme temperature, 4$0^{\circ}C$ or above, condition of greenhouse interior. To improve this inferior crop growth condition, for nozzle system was installed in the pet greenhouse and the effect of fog system was investigated in order to determine fog water amount and the required fog nozzle numbers according to house volumes. MEE fog nozzle was selected for this Investigation which can produce water particle size of 27${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ with water amount of 100$m\ell$ at pumping pressure of 70kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. House cooling test was conducted in the pet greenhouse with one minute fogging and one minute air ventilation without stopping. It maintained 32$^{\circ}C$ at the house interior when the atmosphere and the house temperature were 35 and 4$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. And, an experimental equation was developed through calculating the changes of relative humidity and temperature with psychrometric equation which revealed the moisture transfer pattern between the house air and fog system. It showed that the required water fogging amounts to reduce 1$0^{\circ}C$, 40 to 3$0^{\circ}C$, needs 80.7$\ell$ for 1-2W(8,350㎥) and 99.9$\ell$ for 3-2G-3S(10,330㎥) type greenhouse with particle size of 27${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$.

A simplified experiment was performed to figure out the atomization characteristics of highly viscous liquid of rice-bran oil by applying ultrasonic energy to improve the atomization of spray droplets. A spray system, an ultrasonic system, and three kinds of pintle-type nozzles(pin-edge angle: 5 , 10 , 15 ) were manufactured. To investigate the effects of ultrasonic energy on the atomization of a highly viscous liquid, a phase doppler particle analyzer was used for the measurement and calculation of spray droplets data. Nozzle opening pressures were chosen of 3 levels, i.e, 10, 13, 16 MPa. As a result, it could be concluded that the ultrasonic energy was effective to improve the spray atomization when applied to the fuel by means of 3 different nozzles because of the effects of the liquid fuel cavitation and relaxation between molecules caused by ultrasonic energy. The improvement rate of the spray atomization by the ultrasonic spray atomization by the ultrasonic spray compared with the conventional spray was about 10% increase in the case of pintle type nozzles. With the increase of pin-edge angles the distribution lines by nozzle opening pressures are declined for both conventional and ultrasonic sprays. This means that the increase of the pin-edge angle improves the atomization of sprays.

The ablation characteristics of graphite nozzle throat insert was analyzed for the use in solid rocket propulsion system. The propulsion system was composed of three types of conventional nozzles, such as De-Laval type, blast tube type, and submerged type. Various kinds of propellants were used in ten kinds of propulsion system that had different shapes with each other. Total forty eight tests were performed. From the results of the analysis, it was found that the ablation rate was increased for the higher average chamber pressure and the higher oxidizer mole fraction. A useful correlation for nozzle throat ablation rate was developed in terms of the chamber pressure, oxidizer mole fraction, and throat size. The calculated ablation rates from the correlation showed agreement within ${\pm}0.10mm/s$ with the experimentally determined values.

In the present experimental study, the liquid pool fire extinguishment performance of twin-fluid nozzle was preliminarily examined. For the liquid pool fire, the ethanol of 1200 ml (volume) was prepared, and two kinds of air flow rate conditions (40 l/min and 70 l/min) were tested at the constant water flow rate condition of 632 ml/min. In the present experimental ranges, the fire extinguishment experiments were carried out using the twin-fluid nozzle and its spray characteristics (i.e., SMD (Sauter Mean Diameter) and flow distribution) were investigated. As a result, at the higher air flow rate, the liquid pool fire was extinguished quickly and successfully, which was discussed using the visualization and spray characteristics of twin-fluid nozzle. In addition, through the comparison with some of previous results, it was found that potentially, the twin-fluid nozzle can extinguish the liquid pool fire under the smaller water flow rate condition, as compared with the single-fluid nozzle.

The study was performed to understand combustion characteristics of the slinger combustor. Liquid fuel is discharged radially outwards through injection holes drilled in the high speed rotating shaft. The spray test was peformed to verify atomizing characteristics with variation of fuel nozzle rotational speed by using PDPA system. SMD was measured at different RPM and values are 70$\mu\textrm{m}$ at 5,000RPM rpm, 60$\mu\textrm{m}$ at 10,000RPM and 40$\mu\textrm{m}$ at 20,000RPM. In the results, we found out that SMD is grown smaller with increasing rotational speed. In KARI combustion test facility, Ignition and combustion tests were performed by using combustor test rig. In the test results, ignition and combustion efficiency were improved according to increasing rotational speed. The measured radial temperature distribution at the combustor exit shows stable and fairly good distribution.
