연속주조공정에서 주형과 2차냉각 영역에서의 주편의 응고과정에 관한 열전달 문제를 다루는데 해석적 및 수치적방법의 기본 원리와 그 결과를 간단히 소개하였다. 연속주조공정중 상황변화가 일어나는 주형과 2차냉각대에서 온도제어를 효율적으로 수행하기 위하여 주조온도, 강종, 주조 속도, 냉각수량 등 운전 인자에 따른 주편온도분포 및 응고층두께를 이론적으로 구하는 방법만을 취급하였지만, 실제로는 주편온도 및 응고층 두께를 측정하는 실험적 방법이 상호보완적으로 이루어져야 향후제품결함이 적고, 높은 생산성을 꾀할 수 있는 신 연주기의 개발이 가능할 것이 다.

In this study, a three-dimensional gravity casting problem has been examined to investigate a coupled phenomenon of the filling and solidification process. This work simultaneously considers the two key phenomena of metal casting : the fluid flow during mold filling, and solidification process. The VOF method is used to analyze the free surface flow during filling and the equivalent specific heat method is employed to model the latent heat release during solidification. The time-implicit filling algorithm is applied to save the computational time for analyzing the mold filling process. The three-dimensional benchmark problem used in the MCWASP VII has been solved using both the implicit and explicit algorithm, and the present results are compared with the benchmark experimental results and the other numerical results.

Double-diffusive convection during solidification process of the binary mixture was studied numerically. Enthalpy method and finite element method were implemented in the analysis. Calculation carried out for $R{\alpha}_T=10^3-10^4$ and $R{\alpha}_T=0-10^5$. The results show that the variation of thermal Rayleigh number changes the fields of velocity, temperature and concentration, but the variation of solutal Rayleigh number gives little effects on those. In conclusion, concentration gradient can be negligible compared with temperature gradient in macroscopic point of view, although concentration gradient plays a role in forming dendrite.

The process of solidification of a single-phase flowing hot fluid in a cylindrical tube has been investigated analytically and experimentally. A series of tests were performed, using paraffin -wax and Wood's metal as flowing hot fluids. These data verified the existing quasistatic numerical analysis model of freezing process developed at Brookhaven National Laboratory In addition, experimental results provided information regarding the effects of various parameters on the .process of transient flowing and freezing through a vertical channel. The experimental apparatus and techniques are described. Comparison of experimental data with predictions of mathematical models for transient molten fluid displacement are presented in graphical form. In addition, the mathematical model is applied to LMFBR post-accident conditions.

Viscoelastic coagulation tests provide simultaneous measurements of multiple aspects of whole-blood coagulation, including interactions between the plasma components and cellular components of the coagulation cascade. This can be carried out immediately using a point of care technique. Viscoelastic tests could predict the patient's outcome, including mortality, and detect coagulopathy more sensitively, resulted in reduced blood loss. The transfusion strategy based on the viscoelastic parameters rather than a conventional coagulation test has been shown to reduce the transfusion requirements. Although there are concerns about the reliability and accuracy of this method, viscoelastic tests, including ROTEM, would be a useful method to guide patient blood management strategies.

A numerical model for the solidification of binary mixture is proposed. Numerical model, which employs enthalpy method, is modified from Continuum model, that is, improved relation is proposed for the Enthalpy - Temperature - Concentration - Liquid Mass Fraction. One dimensional example was selected to verify the proposed model. The results show that the new relation can be applied successfully to the solidification or melting of binary mixture.

Eutectic composition phase with low melting point which solidifies at the final stage affects the solidification cracking at the intercellular or interdendritic area of welds and castings. If sufficient amount of eutectic composition liquid does not exist between the solidifying phases, the discontinuities remain as cracks. However, abundant amount of liquid eutectic composition existing in the final stage can flow into the discontinuities easily and heal the cracks. By flowing of liquid eutectic and healing of discontinuities, the possibility of cracking can be reduced when the amount of eutectic liquid is sufficient. For the solidification of pure metals, liquid eutectic does not exist and the interlocking of growing solid phases can be realized without interruption of liquid film. Therefore there is little possibility of solidification cracking in the case of welds and castings of pure metal. In a practical sense, the effective way to reduce or prevent the solidification cracking is making the composition of molten pool or melts near to the eutectic composition.

Numerical analysis is performed for the unsteady axisymmetric two dimensional phase change problem of freezing of water around a vertical tube. Heat conduction in the tube wall and solid phase, natural convection in liquid phase and volume expansion caused by density difference between solid and liquid phases are included in the numerical analysis. Existing correlation is used for estimating density-temperature relation of water, and the effect of volume expansion is reflected as fluid velocity at the interface and the free surface. As pure water has maximum density at 4.deg. C, it is found that there exists an initial temperature at which the flow direction reverses near the interface and by this effect the slope of interface becomes reversed depending on the initial temperature of water. By considering natural convection and solid-liquid density difference in the calculation, their effects on phase change process are studied and the effects of various parameters are also studied quantitatively.

Prothrombin Time (PT) is used as a measure of blood coagulation time. An optical analysis of the signal generating mechanism is described here for the reflection-type arrangement. Thromboplastin added into serum or whole blood initiates the coagulation process. We added a sufficient amount of magnetic particles into the sample before adding thromboplastin and subjected the mixture to a rotating magnetic field. The laser light gets reflected in a periodically modulated fashion with respect to the magnetic field rotation. Analysis of this decaying modulation could produce a reasonable coagulation time. We also introduce a simulation model to explain the signal generating mechanism using LightTools.$^{TM}$
