The optical patterantor provides the high resolution and quantitative information of the spray. Fuel distribution and Sauter Mean Diameter (SMD) can be measured from fluorescence and Mie-scat-tering images. To correct the attenuation of the laser beam and signal in dense spray region, the method to find the geometric mean of the signal intensities obtained from two cameras was evaluated and verified in a solid-cone spray. In high pressure environment, the increased number density of the droplets cause multiple scattering. The optical patternation technique using a laser beam instead of a laser sheet was applied to minimize the multiple scattering problem. The pattern of a coaxial spray was changed from hollow-cone to solid-cone shape, and the spray angle was reduced as the ambient pressure increased from 0.1 to 4.0 MPa.

In this study, quantitative measurement of nitric oxide concentration distributions visualization were investigated in the laminar $CH_4/O_2N_2$ nixed flame by Planar laser-induced fluorescence(PLIF). The NO A-X (0,0) vibrational band around 226nm was excited using a XeCl excimer-pumped dye laser. Selecting an appropriate NO transition minimizes interference from Rayleigh scattering and $O_2$ fluorescence. The measurements were taken in $CH_4/O_2N_2$ premixed flame with equivalence ratios varying from $1.0{\sim}1.6$, and a fixed flow rate of 3slpm. NO was found to produce primarily between an inner premixed and an outer nonpremixed flame front, and total NO concentration is raised when equivalence ratios increase. These results suggest that prompt NO is likely to contribute to MO formation in $CH_4/O_2N_2$ premixed flame. Furthermore, this trend was well matched with previous works.

We have prepared CIGS thin film absorber layers with simple solution spray deposition technique and thin film were synthesized with different atomic ratio. CIGS thin films were synthesized using non-vacuum solution deposition method on pre-heated sodalime glass substrates and Mo-coated soadlime glass substrate. In precursor solution were Cu : In : Ga: S ratio 4 : 3 : 2 : 8 and the crystal type of sprayed thin film were CIGS chalcopyrite structures. This structure was identified as typical chalcopyrite tetragonal structure with XRD analysis. This result showed that CIGS solution deposition technique has potential for the one step synthesis and low cost fabrication process for CIS or CIGS thin film absorber layer.

In this study, quantitative measurement of nitric oxide concentration distributions were investigated in the laminar CH4/O2/N2 premixed flame by laser-induced fluorescence (LIF). The NO A-X (0,0) vibrational band around 226nm was excited using a XeCl excimer-pumped dye laser. Selecting an appropriate NO transition minimizes interference from Rayleigh scattering and O2 fluorescence. The measurements were taken in CH4/O2/N2 premixed flame with equivalence ratios varying from $1.0{\sim}1.6$, and a fixed flowrate of 5slpm. NO was found to produce primarily between an inner premixed and an outer nonpremixed flame front, and total NO concentration is raised when equivalence ratios increase. These results suggest that prompt NO is likely to contribute to NO formation in CH4/O2/N2 premixed flame. Furthermore, this trend was well matched with previous works.

The negative pressure as much as 10's mmHg is demanded at nozzle inside, in case of atomizing the large density molten materials. by conventional air jet nozzle. In this study, suction type fluid nozzle is designed by applying the ejector principle in order to clarify the air flow of nozzle inside, mechanism of liquid suction and liquid film formation. The results of this experimental study areas follows. Suction force of liquid is magnified by using liquid nozzle, and it is able to supply the liquid stable. Negative pressure at nozzle inside is varied by throttle angle of liquid nozzle, position and outer diameter of air jet nozzle, and have a influence on liquid suction quantity and liquid film formation.

This study presents the dynamic wetting characteristics of an impact droplet on hole-patterned textured surfaces. The flat surfaces were manufactured by a drilling machine to generate the micro-order holes, leading to make the surface hydrophobic. Other flat surfaces were fabricated by the anodizing technique to make hydrophilic texture surfaces with a nanometer order. For hydrophilic and hydrophobic textured surfaces with similar texture area fractions, the impinging droplet experiments were conducted and compared with flat surface cases. As results, an anodized textured surface decreases apparent equilibrium contact angle and increases contact diameters, because of increase in contact area and surface energy. This is attributed to more penetration inside holes from larger capillary pressure on nanometer-order holes. On the other hand, temporal evolution of the contact diameter is smaller for the hydrophobic textured surface from less penetration on the micro-order holes.

Recently, fire extinguishing systems based on water mists have been attracting public attentions in marine engineering. Performance of the fire extinguishing systems is influenced by the size and distribution of spayed water mists. Droplet analyzing method based on image processing technique for measuring droplet size and distribution has been developed. The morphological method based on partial curvature information of pre-processed images was adopted for recognition and separation of overlapped particles. Tested results show that the present method may be reliable for the analysis of the size and distribution of droplets produced by water mist spay flow.

Recently, fire extinguishing systems based on water mists have been attracting public attentions in marine engineering. Performance of fire extinguishing systems is very strongly influenced by the size and distribution of spayed water mists. Therefore, the present study has developed droplet analyzing method based on image processing. The morphological technique based on partial curvature information of pre-processed images with relaxation method was adopted for recognition and separation of overlapped particles. Tested results showed that the present method may be reliable for the analysis of the size and distribution of droplets in spray flow of fire extinguishing systems based water mists.

This study presents the dynamic characteristics of an impinging droplet on hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces with various texture area fractions. The flat surface was fabricated by using the drilling technique to make micro-meter hole-patterned surfaces, which shows hydrophobic textured surfaces. Moreover, the hydrophilic textured surfaces were manufactured by anodizing technique on the micro-meter hole-patterned surfaces to generate multi-layer surfaces. Impinging droplet experiments were conducted for various hole-patterned surfaces, with changing impact velocity and texture area fractions. It is observed that an anodizing technique increases wettability by decrease in hole diameter on the textured surfaces. However, micro-drilled surfaces decreases wettability because the hole diameter was so large that air can be trapped under the holes. In addition, the maximum spreading diameter decreases with the texture area fraction for the micro-drilled surfaces because of decrease in wettability.

Visualization of the mixing pattern in a non-element mixer was carried out using laser induced fluorescence(LIF) to evaluate characteristics of mixer consisting of the main flow pipe and branch flow pipes. The branch flows were injected periodically with the period $T_{in}$ normal to the main flow, and rhodamine B was mixed into the most upstream branch flow to visualize mixing pattern in the main flow pipe by LIF. The length of boundary line L of the LIF image was measured. In this study, a numerical analysis was performed to identify the mixing process of the non-element mixer, and the results were compared with experimental results. Each result was almost the same. When the number of branch flows is increased, the mixing pattern became complicated and was supposed to become chaotic. The length of boundary line L increased exponentially with an increase in the number of branch flows.
