This study deals with an investigation on the tip vortex generated by an elliptic wing with section shapes of NACA 0020. The flow structure on the wing surface is investigated by using tufts test as well as observing the cavitation pattern. The surface pressure on a foil surface is measured to complement the visualized flow field. Results show that a strong spanwise pressure gradient is a definite contributor on the formation of tip vorex, and the fluids from both sides contribute to the evolutionary process of tip vortex. On the other hand, a series of experiments are conducted to investigate the detailed structure of tip-vortex at various angles of attack. The tip-vortex formation and development are observed by producing a cavitation, and then by a laser sheet technique in conduction with a dye injection method. The shape of tip-vortex and the distance between a vortex core and the trailing vortex sheet are found to vary with the angle of attack. Overall features of tip flow are evaluated to complement the vortex model based on inviscid theory.

Based on a surface design with rectangular cavities and channels, we investigated the effects of gravity and capillary pressure on pool-boiling Critical Heat Flux (CHF). The microcavity structures could prevent liquid flow by the capillary pressure effect. In addition, the microchannel structures contributed to induce one-dimensional liquid flow on the boiling surface. The relationship between the CHF and capillary flow was clearly established. The driving potentials for the liquid supply into a boiling surface can be generated by the gravitational head and capillary pressure. Through an analysis of pool boiling and visualization data, we reveal that the liquid supplement to maintain the nucleate boiling condition on a boiling surface is closely related to the gravitational pressure head and capillary pressure effect.

Microfluidic preconcentration technologies, which collect or extract low-abundance analytes in a specific location, have been spotlighted in various applications such as medical and bio-engineering. Here, we conducted extensive studies on the variables to be considered when concentrating target samples based on electrophoresis in an electromembrane system utilizing an ion exchange membrane. Using negatively charged Alexa Fluor 488 and positively charged Rhodamine 6G as fluorescent dyes, we examined the effects of flow velocity of the main channel, channel electrolyte concentration, and applied voltage on sample preconcentration. As a result, it was found that the preconcentration of the target sample occurs much better when the flow velocity is slow and the concentration of the main channel containing the sample is high, given that the channel concentration ratio (main and buffer) is constant. In addition, based on the experimental data acquired in this study, the electrophoretic mobility values of Alexa Fluor 488 and Rhodamine 6G were experimentally calculated and compared.

댐 건설은 홍수 및 가뭄에 대응하기 위한 구조적 방법으로써 우리나라와 같이 지표수에 의존적인 지역에서는 가용 수자원을 확보하기 위한 확실한 수단으로 활용되어왔다. 신규 댐의 건설은 대상 하천의 수리학적 특성에 큰 변화를 야기할 수 있으며, 댐의 안정성 및 하천의 하도보호를 위해 댐 주변의 수리적 특성의 변화에 대해서도 사전에 인지하여 설계 시 반영할 필요가 있다. 수공구조물 신설에 따라 변화되는 수리학적 특성을 분석하는 방법으로는 그 수단에 따라 상사법칙을 적용한 수리모형실험과 수치기법을 활용한 수치모형실험으로 나눌 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 수리모형실험을 통한 실험적 방법을 이용하여 댐 상하류 구간의 수리학적 특성을 분석하였다. 해당 실험은 한국농어촌공사 농어촌연구원의 대형수리모형실험시설에서 수행되었다. 적용대상 댐의 제원은 높이 약 70m, 길이 약 230m이며, 폭 55m의 여수로를 포함하는 구조로 설정하였다. 수리모형은 Froude 상사법칙을 적용하여 1/30 규모로 축소하였으며, 콘크리트 및 아크릴 재료를 이용하여 제작되었다. 댐 모형이 설치되는 하천구간은 댐 구조물을 포함하여 실규모를 기준으로 흐름방향으로 약 800m, 하폭방향으로 약 450m의 범위를 포함하도록 설계되었으며, 하류구간에 사행하천이 존재하는 것이 특징이다. 본 실험에서 유량은 총 12개의 펌프를 이용하여 공급되었으며, 최대 4cms에 해당하는 유량공급이 가능하도록 설계하였다. 공급유량은 정교한 절차에 의해 보정된 전자식 유량계를 통해 통제되었으며, 사용된 유량계의 허용오차는 약 0.5% 수준인 것으로 나타났다. 수위 측정은 오차범위 0.05mm 수준의 초음파 수위측정기를 이용하였으며, 유속측정은 약 0.5cm/s의 정확도를 지닌 3차원 전자기 유속계를 이용한 접촉식 측정과 흐름구조 가시화를 위한 비접촉식 입자추적기법을 병행하였다. 실험조건은 실규모 기준으로 방류량 3,000~5,000cms에 대해 수행하였으며, 각 방류량별 댐 상하류의 흐름패턴에 대해 정량적으로 분석하였다.

This study is aimed at figuring out the reasons of the mass mortality of abalone and the increase in its mortality rate in the sea cage. The study suggests that lack seawater circulation in an abalone aquaculture cage is an important culprit for it. We analyzed the current distribution around a 1/20 scaled-down abalone unit cage of 4 rows and 10 columns by fluid flow visualization technique (PIV : Particle Image Velocimetry). The speed of current in the model cage definitely slowed down in the first column of a unit cage. We also observed currents going down to the bottom of a water tank from the unit cages placed in the middle. The speed of wakes behind inside the row in the middle was slower than that outside the row. Water velocity inside and outside a real abalone cage at Nowha Island adjacent to Wan Island was measured to verify results from the tank test. The speed of current in front of the cage by 2 m was 0.11 m/sec while it was only 0.0009 m/sec inside the cage. It had similar findings with those of a tank test.

Flaw visualization and velocity field measurement methods have practical applications in the various fluid engineering fields, such as mechanics, ships, and heat fluids. In this study, the basic principles and theoretical methods are used to establish an application technique of Particle Imae Velocimetry(abbreviated to PIV below). Accordingly, the measured results of velocity field distribution of a section inside the Circulating Water Channel (abbreviated to CWC below) are computed using the PIV is presented. The uniformity of velocity distribution of the section in CWC is confirmed, by comparing this PIV data with the existing current meter data. Also, in order to measure the flaw fields of surroundings of 2-dimensional cylinder in the CWC, the flaw visualization technique using the PIV is applied.

Gas flow field within the cylinder which is called a tumble flow is important factor in improving lean combustion stability. In this study, steady state flow tests were performed to quantify tumble ratio of flowfields generated by a tumble intensifying valve(TIV). In addition, velocity and fluctuation profiles in an intake port and flowfields in th cylinder were inspected using a hotwire anemometer and a laser light sheet method with various TIV configurations. These experimental results show that installated TIV has a great effect on flow field distribution in an intake port and test effects enhance a tumble flow in the cylinder.

An experimental study was carried out in a cavity with upper channel and square heat surface by visualization equipment with Mach-Zehnder interferometer and laser apparatus. The visualization system consists of 2-dimensional sheet light by Argon-Ion Laser with cylindrical lens and flow picture recording system. Instant simultaneous velocity vectors at whole field were measured by 2-D PIV system(CACTUS'2000). Obtained result showed various flow patterns. Severe unsteady flow fluctuation within the cavity are remarkable and sheared mixing layer phenomena are also found at the region where inlet flow is collided with the counter-clockwise rotating main primary vortex. Photographs of Mach-Zehnder are also compared in terms of constant heat flux.

A Wind tunnel test for a high speed ground vehicle was conducted to investigate the aerodynamic interactions between the vehicle and a solid channel. The free stream velocity was 30m/see and Reynolds number per unit length was $3.1{\times}10^5/m$. Experimental devices such as a variable channel ground and guide way were used for the test. As the vehicle was close to the channel ground and guide way, lift was significantly increased, drag was slightly decreased and pitching moments were restricted to augment static stability. Using smoke-wire, flow visualization was made to confirm these results by comparing the channel and non-channel flow characteristics of the vehicle. Under the influence of the channel ground and guide way, the flow beneath the vehicle was not discharged outside wing end plates, which was the major reason of the increase in lift of the vehicle.
