A study has been done on the three dimensional turbulent flow characteristic near the porous wall. The porous holes are considered by penetrating the wall in regular arrangement, and porosity is controlled by diameter of holes. Flow characteristics near the three dimensional porous wall are compared with field test results and self-generated experimental results. FLUENT is employed for computational analysis on the effect of three dimensional porosity with flow and pressure characteristics. As a result, drag coefficient is defined and compared for three dimensional effect. The drag coefficient is mostly a function of porosity, whereas the effect of Reynolds number is minimal, and its correlation is presented in terms of three dimensional porosity.

The present numerical study was performed to determine how the two perforated baffles( Inclined angle=$5^{\circ}$; perforation diameter=2cm) placed at a rectangular duct affect heat transfer and associated friction factors. The parametric effects of perforated baffles(3, 6 and 12 holes) and flow Reynolds number ranging from 28,900 to 61,000 on the heated target surface are explored. As for the investigation of heat transfer behaviours on the local Nusselt number with two baffles placed at $x/D_h=0.8$ and $x/D_h=0.8$ of the edge baffles, it is evident that the average Nusselt number increases with increasing number of holes, but the friction factor decreases with an increase in the hole number placed at baffles. The numerical results by commercial code CFX 10.0 are confirmed with the experimental data.

In the present paper, we apply a porous modelling technique to accurately predict the pressure drop through the strainer by replacing all or some of the filter composed of perforated plates with porous media and there imposing the streamwise and transverse loss coefficients required according to the Forchheimer law and then confirm its effectiveness. At first, the streamwise coefficient is obtained by performing a simple simulation on the pipe flow mimicking the hole flow. Subsequently, the transverse coefficient is obtained by setting a unit pattern to have common flow loss characteristics with the repeated shape patterns in the filter, then performing numerical simulations on the prototype and porous model of the unit shape pattern, and finally comparing their results of pressure drop. To validate the applied modeling technique, we perform the numerical simulation with the two specified loss coefficients on a whole shape of strainer and compare the modeling results with those of the corresponding prototype numerical simulation. Comparison indicates that the modeling technique can predict the pressure drop and flow characteristics comparatively accurately and save the number of nodes closely related to the computational cost (CPU and memory) by about 3~4 times compared with the prototype simulation.

Effective thermal conductivity of the porous nuclear fuel has been investigated numerically. Difficulties associated with irregular shape of pore have been overcome by using the Body Fitted Coordinate Systems. A computer code has been developed to solve the governing equation with appropriate boundary conditions by transforming from the Cartesian coordinates to the nonorthogonal curvilinear coordinates. The effects of the porosity have been investigated. For a convenient use of the result, a correlation equation was suggested under the assumption of circular pore. The computation results by the assumption of randomly oriented elliptic pore has been agreed more closely to existing experimental result than that by the assumption of circular pore.

When porous materials are dried, the particles flocculate into fish-net structure in gel phase. In order to exactly analyze the stress distribution of porous materials during drying process, the elastic tensor of microscopic gel structures has to be predicted considering pore shapes as well as porosities of porous materials. The elastic characteristics of porous materials associated with porosities were predicted analyzing microscopic gel structures with circular and cross pores via homogenization method and the drying processes of the electric porous ceramic insulator were simulated using finite element method (FEM). Comparing analysis results between consideration and negligence of pores, the deformed shape and distributions of temperature and moisture were similar but the residual stress was significantly different.

In this paper, a circular lined-duct is modeled by using an axisymmetric foam finite element, which is based on elastic porous material theory of Biot. For various thicknesses of three kinds of lining materials, finite element predictions are compared with measurement results and Morse's analytical results. While the analytical model has larger error as the lining becomes thicker, results of the present model have a good agreement with experimental results for all the thicknesses considered here. It has also been found that constraining the axial motion on the circumferential surface of the lining enhances sound attenuation at low freqneucies.

The inlet/outlet flow in the tube-side of the shell and tube heat exchanger was experimentally measured to investigate the effect of the porous baffle on uniform flow distribution. A 1/3rd scale-downed model of a heat exchanger was used and particle image velocimetry was applied for measuring the instantaneous velocity vector fields. The absolute errors in the flow rate were calculated and compared for the tube-side with and without the porous baffle, by varying the flow rate from 60 to 90 LPM. The results revealed that the porous baffle can improve flow uniformity and reduce the absolute error in the flow rate of the model with the baffle by about 74%, compared to that without the baffle. This result can be used for improving the performance and design of the shell and tube heat exchanger.
