The heat transfer phenomenon was investigated in this study when a single round water jet with the low velocity and against the direction of gravity flows to the downward facing Isothermal of definite thickness circular plate. Experimental investigation is performed for a single round jet diameter 4mm, 6mm, and 8mm with the jet velocity 2.4m/s and jet fluid temperature of $24^{\circ}C$, varied the ratio of nozzle clearance/nozzle diameter (H/D)1, 2, 3, 6, and 8, on circular plate isothermal condition with $85^{\circ}C$. The local convection heat transfer coefficient distributions are analyzed based on the visualization of jet flow field. The effects of the diameter of Nozzle, the ratio of H/D and the ratio of nozzle diameter/circular plate diameter on heat transfer phenomenon are investigated. As a results of experiment is obtained correlation equation, $Nu_r=3.18Re_r^{0.55}Pr_r^{0.4}$.

Various applications based on the location information of things are developed as entering by the ubiquitous computing age. Wireless sensor networks are suitable to indoor location-based service because of the important features such as low-power consumption, low-cost, easy deployment, etc. To recognize the distance between nodes, the indoor location-based system transmits both ultrasound signal and radio signal periodically. However, increment of the number of deployed sensor nodes make lots of collision and interference among the signals and it can degrade the accuracy of location-based system. In this paper, we propose a beacon management mechanism to increase the probability of transmission chance to the nearest beacon from the listener. It can minimize collision and interference and reduce the error probability due to the characteristics of ultrasound.

A water-flow test for acceptance verification is carried out for a nonimpinging-type injector prior to the design-performance verification of 70 N-class liquid-rocket engine under development. It is observed that there exist varying characteristics of atomization among the injector-orifices caused by a fabrication crudeness of orifice holes which can be judged from a microscopic standpoint. The flow shedding phenomenon and ruffle on the surface of liquid column (or droplet) could be caught from the instantaneous spray images.

The role of a seat belt in a vehicle is to protect the driver from injury when a crash occurs. However when a large crash occurs, the driver slips forward and receives a strong impact. To prevent this situation, improvement of seat belts is essential. In this study, the new concept of a dynamic locking tongue (DLT) for seat belts is developed. The DLT device is used to reduce the impact to the driver's chest by tightening the webbing, so the driver is protected from severe injury in a large crash. First, a finite element model of the DLT device is created using SAMCEF and structural analysis is conducted with boundary conditions similar to those found in experiments. Then, the stress in the DLT device can be calculated. Second, the shape of the DLT device is optimized using the response surface analysis method in order to minimize the stress and weight. The validity of the optimization of the DLT device is verified using structural analysis.

An important feature of virtual reality is the facility for the user to move around a virtual environment in a natural and easily controlled manner, Navigation. Navigation involves changing the perspective of the user in the virtual environment (VE). Natural locomotion methods are able to contribute to a sense of presence and reality. This paper focuses on the navigation method in the virtual environment, one of the major interfaces for the interactivity between human and virtual environments in virtual reality circumstances and worlds. It proposes a new navigation method: Intelligent Cruise-Control Navigation (ICCN), which provides a natural and user-centered navigation method in virtual environment and can improve the reality and the presence. Intelligent Cruise-Control Navigation is composed of three major phases: Constant Velocity Navigation, Collision Detection and Avoidance, and Path Adjustment. The ICCN can reduce the user's fatigue and improve the user's presence and reality in the virtual environment. Through the experimental study it has been determined that the ICCN will be a natural, straightforward, and useful interface in VE.

This experimental study aims to evaluate the impact performance of UHPC exterior panels through high velocity impact tests. The impact performance of UHPC was compared with that of granite in terms of panel thickness, and strain histories were recoded on the rear face of panel specimens. The UHPC turned out to be a good exterior facade material, because the appearance of UHPC is natural enough and impact performance was superior to granite. After colliding, compression pulse reached to the rear face but that pulse was reflected in tension pulse with respect to the free point outside the rear face of the panel. This tension pulse caused the scabbing from the rear side, as the strain histories on the rear face showed three different regions as compression region, steady region and tension region. The shear plug deformation by shear force also was one of the primary reasons for the scabbing based on the observation. Therefore, the scabbing seemed to be affected by both tension and shear forces.

An experimental investigation for impingement of under-expanded, axisymmetric jets on a flat plate has been conducted, and the surface pressure, the adiabatic wall temperature distributions on the plate have been measured in detail. For the explanation on the wall temperature distributions, the total temperature distributions along a free jet have also been measured with total temperature probes. In this study, the under-expansion ratio and the nozzle-to-plate distance have been considered as experimental parameters. Depending on nozzle-to-plate distances, different distributions of adiabatic wall temperature are shown by the energy separation at a jet edge and a impinged surface. Also, the recovery factor on a stagnation point decreases significantly due to the isolation of fluid particles in a central region.

In the preceding tests of Sub.(Ⅰ) engines, it was observed that the heat resistant capability of the engines was not enough, and the design of Sub.(Ⅰ) engines was modified to satisfy the mission requirement. Sub.(Ⅰ) Mod. engines have three major design parameters - the arrangement of main injectors, the impinging angle of main injectors and thermal barrier coating. More than 20 experiments were carried out to evaluate engine performance and heat resistance capability with respect to design parameters. Analysing the result of Sub.(Ⅰ) and Sub.(Ⅰ) Mod. engine tests, it is found that the decreased impinging angle, adopting the H-type arrangement(rather than radial type arrangement), and adopting the thermal barrier coating can increase heat resistance capacity substantially. The result show that the performance variation by design change is below 5 percents and the radial type arrangement of injectors has higher performance than H-type. However, the performance of 15°impinging angle engine is higher than that of 20°impinging angle engine, which is inconsistent to our expectation. High frequency instabilities may cause such phenomenon, which will be verified by a series of tests.

Database integration has been recognized as a critical issue for effective logistics service in logistics environment. However, research related to effective methodology for this have been little studied, and also, prominent achievements have yet to be suggested. The aim of this paper is to present a quantitative methodology for the identification of conflict that is a representative problem on database integration. To achieve this aim, we suggested a quantitative methodology that can efficiently fine troubles such as name conflicts when schema integration, based on the level of semantic similarity between attributes and entities. And, in order to measure these semantic similarities, we used a thesaurus dictionary that proposed previous research. Finally, we presented effectiveness of the proposed methodology through some typical examples.

In a spray experiment using a venturi mounted on a lean premixed LPP injector, droplets appear to have non-uniform distributions. To solve this problem, the exit angle of the venturi was changed to form a dump surface on the nozzle neck. The dump surface improved the atomization performance and minimized droplet loss while forming recirculation zone in the venturi exit. In order to solve the non-uniform spray of the injector, the flow characteristics inside the venturi and SMD of the spray are compared. Finally, an optimum venturi shape is selected to minimize the spray loss and improve the spray performance.
