A mechanistic model for forced convective transition boiling has been developed to predict transition boiling heat flux realistically. This model is based on a postulated multi­stage boiling process occurring during the passage time of an elongated vapor blanket specified at a critical heat flux condition. Between the departure from nucleate boiling (DNB) and the departure from film boiling (DFB) points, the boiling heat transfer is established through three boiling stages, namely, the macrolayer evaporation and dryout governed by nucleate boiling in a thin liquid film and the unstable film boiling. The total heat transfer rate during the transition boiling is the sum of the heat transfer rates after the DNB weighted by the time fractions of each stage, which are defined as the ratio of each stage duration to the vapor blanket passage time. The model predictions are compared with some available experimental transition boiling data. From these comparisons, it can be seen that the transition boiling heat fluxes including the maximum heat flux and the minimum film boiling heat flux are nil predicted at low qualities/high pressures near 10 bar.

열전달 시스템에서 임계 열유속 발생 시 시스템의 물리적 손상을 야기하기 때문에 비등 열전달에서 임계 열유속은 열전달 시스템의 한계 또는 안전성을 나타낸다. 따라서 열전달 시스템의 안정성을 위해서는 임계 열유속 향상이 필수적이다. 최근에는 나노유체를 열전달 시스템에 적용할 경우 임계 열유속이 증가한다고 보고되었다. 하지만 나노유체는 원전 및 각종 열전달 시스템에 적용 시 나노입자가 열전달 표면에 침착되는 파울링 현상을 발생시킬 수 있으며, 이 때문에 시스템의 열효율이 크게 감소할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 열전달 시스템에 나노유체를 적용했을 때, 나노유체의 침착현상이 시스템에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 그 결과 유속과 코팅시간이 증가할수록 산화처리된 다중벽 탄소나노튜브 나노유체의 임계 열유속이 크게 증가하고 있음을 확인할 수 있다. 하지만 나노입자 침착정도와 유속이 증가할수록 비등 열전달 표면과 유체의 포화온도의 차이인 과열도가 상당히 크게 증가함을 알 수 있었으며, 열전달 계수는 순수 물의 0 m/s의 비등 열전달 계수와 비교하면 감소하는 것을 확인하였다.

비등이 발생하는 경사유로에서 이상유동 구조 파악을 위해 국부적 이상유동 변수의 측정이 이루어졌다. 국부 기포율, 국부 기포빈도, 국부기포속도 그리고 국부 기포크기와 같은 기상 관련 이상유동변수는 이중 전기전도도 탐침으로, 액상속도 분포는 Pilot tuba로 측정하였다. 유로의 경사도가 이상유동 구조에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위해 실험은 수직, 수직으로부터 30도 경사도 및 60도 경사도에서 유량과 열유속을 변화시켜가며 수행하였으며 유동변수의 측정은 경사진 경우에 측면 방향으로의 대칭성을 고려하여 유로 반 단면내 총 91개 지점에서, 수직인 경우에는 13개 지점에서 이루어졌다. 유동조건은 1.4m/s 이하의 평균 액상 겉보기 속도에 제한되었고 유로내 압력은 대기압이며 유동양식은 미포화 비등에 국한되었다. 측정된 이상유동 변수의 분포를 이용하여 경사유로에 적용할 수 있는 distribution parameter와 drift velocity 같은 dirft flux parameter에 대한 상관식이 개발되었다.

Pool boiling heat transfer coefficients of a LiBr solution were obtained for seven low fin tubes having different fin pitch and fin height. The test range covered saturation pressure from 7.38kPa to 101.3kPa, heat flux from $20kW/m^2$ to $40 kW/m^2$ and LiBr concentration from 0% to 50%. The optimum fin geometry for the present experimental range turned out to be 26 fpi with 0.18 mm fin height.The advantage of added heat transfer area and the disadvantage of slower bubble growth and departure appear to have yielded an optimum fin pitch. The heat transfer coefficient decreased as saturation pressure decreased and Libr concentration increased. The reason may be attributed to the low saturation pressure, which increased the bubble departure diameter and decreased the bubble departure frequency. As the LiBr concenreation increased, the saturation temperature increased and the mass diffusion rate decreased, which resulted in a reduced heat transfer coefficient. The heat transfer coefficients of the low fin tube were greater than those of the smooth tube. Correlations were developed based on the present data.

A new empirical correlation was developed for application to the tandem tubes for saturated water at atmospheric pressure. The correlation was obtained by using experimental data and the least square method to calculate the bundle effect. A statistical analysis was performed to identify the suitability of the correlation. The correlation predicted the experimental data within ${\pm}8%$. The applicable ranges of the correlation correspond to a tube pitch of 28.5~114 mm, an elevation angle of $0^{\circ}{\sim}90^{\circ}$, an inclination angle of $0^{\circ}{\sim}90^{\circ}$, and heat fluxes of $0{\sim}120kW/m^2$ of the lower and upper tubes.

Nucleate pool boiling experiments with constant heat flux condition were performed using pure R11 and R113 for various surface angles under saturated pool condition. A circular heater of 1 mm diameter, with artificial cavity in the center, fabricated using MEMS technique and the high-speed controller were used to maintain the constant heat flux. Images of bubble growth were taken at 5,000 frames per second using a high-speed CCD camera. The bubble geometry was obtained from the captured bubble images. The effects of surface angles on the bubble growth behaviors were analyzed as dimensional scales for the initial and thermal growth regions. The parameters for the bubble growth behaviors were bubble radius, bubble growth rate, sliding velocity, bubble shape and advancing and receding contact angles. These phenomena require further analysis for various surface angles, but this study will provide good experimental data with constant heat flux boundary condition for such works.

The governing equation of flow in porous media is developed on the bases of the continuity equation of fluid for transient flow through a saturated-unsaturated zone, and substitution of Darcy's law. The numerical solutions are obtained by finite element method based on the Galerkin principles weighted residuals. The analysis are carried out by using the unsteady storm data observed and rainfall intensities which are obtained by using the rainfall excess model in considering of the initial losses. The functional relationships between the hydraulic conductivity, capillary pressure head and volumetric water content are applied to the flow of water through unsaturated soil varied with changes of water content.

The probabilistic and statistical model is used to estimate the probability of liquefaction potential and pore water pressure build up due to earthquake in fully saturated sand deposit for each case of being structure(anisotropic) or not(isotropic). To execute this paper, dynamic shear strength parameters to show the relationship between shear strength and cyclic loading under isotropic or anisotropic condition in saturated sand deposit are presented. Using these parameters, the program which Predicts Pore water Pressure build up due to earthquake is developed. Using the 3-dimensional Random Field Model considering uncertainty of resistance and strength parameter, the program which computes the probability of liquefaction potential is developed. The developed program is applied to a case study, and then the result shows that the probability of liquefaction in isotropic condition is higher than in anisotropic condition. The ratio of pore water pressure tends to decrease as Kc increases.

This study experimentally investigates effect of boiling heat transfer when ultrasonic vibration was applied. Under the wall temperature condition, temperature distribution in a cavity was measured during the boiling process and heat transfer coefficient of convection, sub-tooled boiling and saturated boiling states were measured with and without ultrasonic vibration, respectively. Also, the profiles of the pressure distribution in acoustic field measured by a hydrophone were compared with the augmentation ratios of heat transfer calculated by local heat transfer coefficient. Result of this study, heat transfer coefficient and augmentation ratio of heat transfer is higher with ultrasonic waves than without one. Especially, augmentation ratio of heat transfer is more increased the convection state than sub-cooled boiling and saturated boiling states. Acoustic pressure is relatively higher near ultrasonic transducer than other points where is no installed it and affects the augmentation ratio of heat transfer.

We have theoretically investigated torque curve shapes of simple uniaxial magnetic materials by considering conditions for round peaks to exist. These conditions are functions of an applied field, anisotropy field, ans lowest critical field $h_0$ for a domain wall to move or nucleate. The peak having a height of 2h appears when h is lower than h$_1$, the peak having a height of 1 appears when h is higher than h$_2$, ans two peaks having heights of 1 and -1 appear when h is higher than h$_3$. It was found that torque curves of simple uniaxial magnetic materials could be classified into 8 distinct types depending on the existence of hysteresis, the number of the round peaks, and the reversal mechanisms. Simple uniaxial magnetic materials also found to be classifed into the 5 groups depending on $h_0$.
