Heat transfer experiments at a vertical annulus passage were carried out in the SPHINX(Supercritical Pressure Heat Transfer Investigation for NeXt Generation) to investigate the heat transfer behaviors of supercritical $CO_2$. The collected test data are to be used for the reactor core design of the SCWR (SuperCritical Water-cooled Reactor). The mass flux was in the range of 400${\sim}$1200 kg/$m^2$s and the heat flux was chosen up to 150 kW/$m^2$. The selected pressures were 7.75 and 8.12 MPa. The heat transfer data were analyzed and compared with the previous tube test data. The test results showed that the heat transfer characteristics were similar to those of the tube in case of a normal heat transfer mode and degree of heat transfer deterioration became smaller than that in the tube. Comparison of the experimental heat transfer coefficients with the predicted ones by the existing correlations showed that there was not a distinct difference between the correlations.

본 논문은 분사제트 주위에 형성되는 와류를 조절하여 제트를 제어하기 위하여 유동가시화, 속도분포 및 난류성분을 측정하는 실험을 수행하였다. 와류를 조절하기 위한 방법으로 제트노즐 주위에 환형관을 설치하여 환형관으로부터 2차제트를 분사 또는 흡입함으로써 제트주위에 형성되는 전단류를 변화시켰다. 2차제트 분사시 주제트 주위에 형성되는 와류의 발달을 억제함으로써 제트 포텐셜코어의 길이가 아주 길어지는 제트유동을 얻을 수 있었다. 환형관으로부터 주제트주위의 유체를 흡입하는 경우 제트주위의 전단류가 흡입비 R=1.3∼l.65에서 대류불안정성에서 절대불안정성으로 바뀜으로써 형성된 와류가 하류에서 제트중심부까지 발전, 결합되는 것을 방지하여 더 긴포텐셜코어와 중심에서 낮은 난류강도를 얻었다. 위의 결과는 환형관 주위에 부착한 깃의 높이 변화에 따라서 변화하였는데, 이것은 깃이 환형관을 통한 흡입유동의 유로역할을 함으로써 제트밖으로부터 흡입되는 것을 방지할 수 있었다. 분사제트 벡터링을 위하여 제트노즐 주위의 환형관을 이등분하여 한쪽으로만 제트주위의 유동을 흡입함으로써 제트주위에 다른 전단류를 형성함과 동시에 Coanda효과를 이용하여 분사제트를 편향시켰다. 편향되는 정도 및 난류성분은 홉입속도 비에 따라서 크게 바뀌었다.

A semi-active MR damper landing gear is a damper that generates a fluid damping force and a magnetic field control damping force when the MR fluid passes through annular flow paths. In the case of MR fluid passing through annular flow paths, an incompletely developed flow inevitably occurs, causing an error in calculating damper inner forces including the fluid damping force. This error results in an inaccurate design of damper structural parameters and control gain selection, resulting in deterioration of dynamic characteristics and shock absorption performance of the landing gear. In this paper, we derived a mathematical model of an MR damper landing gear considering additional damping force generated in the entrance region of annular flow paths of the MR damper. If the mathematical modeling derived from this paper is applied to the design and optimization process of an MR damper landing gear, excellent performance of the MR damper landing gear is expected.

Axisymmetric shear layers around a free jet is forced by co-flowing and counter-flowing secondary jets from/to an annular tube around the jet nozzle. The jet potential core extends far downstream with co-flowing secondary jets due to inhibited vortex developing and pairing. For counter-flowing cases, the axisymmetric shear layer around the jet transits from convective instability to absolute instability for velocity ratios R＝1.3～l.65 for the uniform velocity jets. Consequently, the jet potential core length increases and the turbulence level in the jet core is reduced significantly. The jets are controlled better with extension collars attached to the outer nozzle exit because the annular secondary flow is guided well by the extension collars. For the vectoring of jet, the annular tube around the jet is divided in two parts and the only one part is used for suction. The half suction makes the different shear layer around the jet and vectoring the jet by Coanda effect. The vectoring and turbulent components are varied significantly by the suction ratio. The experiments are carried out to investigate the characteristics of forced free jets using flow visualization, velocity and turbulence measurements.

증기발생기가 원자로압력용기안에 위치한 일체형원자로의 개발을 위해서 가장먼저 개발되어야 할 요소기술은 관류형 증기발생기의 설계기술이다. 증기발생기는 기존의 상용로에서 사용되고 있는 재순환형 증기발생기와 관류형 증기발생기로 분류 할 수 있는데, U-튜브를 사용하는 재순환형 중기발생기의 경우 습분분리기와 증기건조기 등이 많은 공간을 요구하고 있고, 또한 중기발생기를 압력용기 안에 위치시킬 경우 일차측과 이차측의 냉각수 유로형태, 유동장의 안정성 등의 문제 때문에 일체형원자로에서는 관류형 증기발생기의 도입이 일반화 되어있기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 관류형(직관 및 나선 전열관형) 증기발생기의 열수력학적 설계 및 성능분석을 위한 프로그램, ONCESG를 개발했다. 개발된 모델링 및 컴퓨터코드의 검증을 위해 외국의 관류형 중기발생기(직관형:미국/영국의 SIR, 나선형:일본의 MRX, SPWR)의 설계자료를 ONCESG프로그램을 사용해 모사한 결과와 이미 발표된 설계자료와의 비교분석을 수행했다. 모사결과 계산된 관류형 증기발생기의 열전달면적, 압력 및 온도분포가 외국의 발표된 설계자료와 잘 일치했으며, 개발된 ONCESG코드를 일체형 신형원자로의 개념설계시 다양한 목적으로 활용할 수 있음을 보였다.

일체형 원자로에는 노심지지원통과 원자로용기 내벽사이의 환형 공간을 나선으로 감는 형태인 일체형 관류식 나선형 증기발생기와 증기발생기를 여러 개의 모듈로 나누어 환형 공간에 배치하는 형태인 모듈형 관류식 직관형증기 발생기가 가장 적합한 것으로 판단되어 두 가지 형태에 대한 개념을 설정하였다. 일체형 관류식 나선형 증기발생기는 전열관 집합체, 지지구조물, 하강유로, 그리고 증기 및 급수 헤더로 구성되어 있다. 모듈형 관류식 직관형 증기발생기는 개개의 모듈이 별도로 운전될 수 있는 12개의 모듈로 구성되며, 원자로용기를 관통하는 배관의 수를 줄이기 위해서 급수관이 증기관의 안쪽에 있는이중배관 개념을 사용한 것이 특징이다. 모듈형 관류식 직관헝 증기발생기가설계 및 제작이 용이하지만 높이를 줄이기 위한 방안으로 두 가지 개념이 조합된 모듈형 관류식 나선형 증기발생기도 검토하였다.

The landing gear of an aircraft is a device that absorbs and dissipates shock energy transmitted from the ground to the fuselage. Among the landing gears, the semi-active MR damper landing gear is supposed to show high-shock absorption efficiency under various landing conditions and secure the stability when out of control. In the case of the MR damper landing gear using an annular channel rather than orifice, Amesim, a commercial multi-physics program, is considered as more useful than the conventional two-degree-of-freedom model because the damping force generated by the pressure drop through the flow annular path can cause cavitation in the low-pressure chamber of the MR damper with a specific internal structure. In this paper, the main dynamic characteristics of the MR damper landing gear with an annular type flow path structure has been analyzed under the condition of cavitation. Based on the analysis results using Amesim, a design guideline for the MR damper flow path that prevents cavitation has been proposed based on the modification of the arrangement of internal components of the damper. The guideline was verified through a drop simulation.

A swirler with turbulence generator is designed and manufactured for generating many small-scale eddies in the combustor which contribute to enhancing mixing effect between fuel and air. The method results in not only the disadvantage of pressure loss but also the advantage of promoting combustion and reducing NOx. For the purpose of the study, four kinds of swirler with different turbulence generator area (0%, 3%, 7%, and 12% of reducing flow area) are designed to confirm the effect of mixing according the variation in the area of the turbulence generator. The mixing of combustor in the radial direction is significantly improved and the distributions of flames and temperature are well distributed throughout the cross section of a combustor as area of swirl generator is increased.

Improvements in the standard of living and lifestyle have led to increased sales of frozen milk products, such as soft ice cream or slush. These frozen milk products are commonly made in a small refrigeration machine. In a soft ice cream machine, the freezer is composed of a concentric cylinder, where the refrigerant flows in the annul us and the ice cream is made in the cylinder by a rotating scraper. In this study, an optimization and performance evaluation were conducted on a soft ice cream machine having a freezer volume of 2.8 liters. The optimization was focused on the scraper rotation speed and the refrigerant path of the freezer. The measurements included the temperature, pressure and consumed power. At the optimized speed of 124 rpm, ice cream was produced in 6 minutes and 2 seconds, and the COP was 0.90. Through a flow visualization study using air-water, the refrigerant path was improved. The improved design reduced the ice cream making time significantly. The present results may be used for the optimization of other refrigeration cycles, including those of frozen food products.

In twin spool aero-engine, there may be a S shaped annular duct between high pressure and low pressure spools. The flow passing this S shaped duct experiences the flow acceleration and deceleration due to the convex and concave surface of the duct as well as the increase of blockage according to the boundary layer growth along the surfaces. So, the high pressure compressor which is located behind the S shaped duct is influenced by the non-uniform flow field generated by the geometry of inlet duct. To study the influence of the S shaped duct on the centrifugal stage, performance tests were implemented for the compressor with straight cylindrical inlet duct and with S shaped inlet duct, respectively. The test results showed that the performance, such as pressure ratio and efficiency, of the compressor with S shaped duct was worse than that of the compressor with cylindrical duct. And the compressor with S shaped duct had reduced maximum flow rate around design speed. To investigate the cause of performance degradation, flow anlaysis was performed for the impeller in front of which is located S shaped annular duct. The result of CFD showed the strong acceleration of the flow in the axial direction around the inducer tip region which caused the increase of relative mach number and the decrease of incidence angle of the flow.
