The coupled conduction and convection heat transfer from a protruding heated module in a horizontal channel with a variation of channel height is experimentally investigated. The input power to the module is 3, 7W and thermal resistance of module support is 0.06 , 1.03 and 158K/W. the Reynolds number ranged from 350 to 4500 corresponding to the inlet velocity(0.4~1.3 m/s) and channel height(11~35 mm). The results were obtained that the decrease of thermal resistance of module support reduces the module temperature by redistributing the heat flux and the overall thermal resistance of the module. In the study the effect of channel height is very significant in the adiabatic condition, but negligible in the conjugate condition. Finally, correlations for Nusselt number and $Q_B$/Q with a variation of Reynolds number were developed respectively.

Pressure drop and heat transfer characteristics of a periodically fully developed flow in the flat channel with protrusions are investigated. The effects of shape and location of protrusion on the pressure drop and heat transfer are numerically analyzed in the present study. Taguchi method is used to optimize these parameters. It is found that the ratio of the height of protrusion to channel height shows larger influence on the pressure drop and heat transfer than the ratio of the length of protrusion to module length. As the height of protrusion increases, pressure drop and heat transfer increase, but if the height of protrusion exceeds 2/3 of the channel height, there is a substantial pressure drop. The results also show that the optimal length and height of protrusion are half of the module length and half of the channel height, respectively.

The effect of anode gas channel height on gas diffusion and cell performance in a 100 $cm^2$ class molten carbonate single cell is investigated. Single cell separators with three different channel height are used. The effect of the gas channel height on the distribution of the reactive gas concentration is evaluated by the two-dimensional concentration diffusion equation. The overpotential caused by concentration drop with different channel height is estimated by the voltage decay related to diffusion of reactants, well known as concentration polarization, using limiting current density. The estimation could have the possibility to identify the reactant mass transfer polarization in the complicate factors of the overall electrodes.

This paper investigates the characteristics of waves generated by a flap-type wave maker in a two-dimensional wave channel. Measurements are carried out for various water depths, wave heights, periods, and lengths capacitance-type wave height gages. The experimental results are shown to satisfy the dispersion relation of the linear wave theory. For waves with a small height and long period, the wave profiles agree well with those of the linear wave theory. However, as the wave height and period become higher and shorter, respectively, it is shown that the wave profiles measured in the present experiments are different from the linear wave profiles, and the measured wave heights are smaller than the target wave heights, which may be due to the non-linearity of the waves. As the wave progresses toward the channel end, the wave height gradually decreases. This reduction in the wave height along the wave channel is explained by the wave energy dissipation due to the friction of the side walls of the channel. The performance of the wave absorber in the channel is found to be acceptable from the results of the wave reflection tests.

Effect of rib heights is found as significant parameter to enhance convective heat transfer performance under laminar and low turbulent regime. Circular ribs with different ribheight to channel height ratios, e/H = 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, are fabricated over the copper substrate respectively in a rectangular duct having 7.5 cross sectional aspect ratio. Only one rib pitch to rib height ratio (P/e = 10) has been chosen for all different height ribs. The result shows that the arithmetic average of turbulence intensity decreases with decreasing roughness height calculated between two ribs under laminar and low turbulent region. It occurs because the area of recirculation and reattachment zone also decreases with decreasing rib height. Optimum thermal enhancement factor is derived by 0.1 rib height to channel height ratio under low turbulent region but 0.15 rib height to channel height ratio gives maximum subjected to laminar flow.

In this study, the flow uniformity was analyzed by performing numerical analysis on the 1 kWe internal manifold type solid oxide fuel cell stack according to the channel height of the separator. Also, it was examined by varying the fuel utilization rate and oxygen utilization rate. From the calculation results, we found that as the channel height of the separator decreased, the pressure drop increased exponentially. In addition, it was found that as the channel height of the separator decreased, the gas flow resistance inside the unit cell increased, and the flow resistance increased the pressure drop, thereby improving the flow uniformity inside the stack. Finally, the calculation results showed that as the fuel and oxygen utilization increased, the flow uniformity also improved.

본 연구에서는 전산유체역학(CFD)을 이용하여 마이크로채널 내부의 Fischer-Tropsch(FT) 반응을 모사하였고, 나아가 반응채널의 너비와 높이, 냉각채널과의 거리 그리고 채널 사이 간격을 변수로 두고 채널 내부 온도에 대해 민감도 분석을 수행하였다. 마이크로채널 반응기는 채널 간의 열교환을 고려하기 위한 5개의 반응채널과 냉각채널을 대신한 냉각면으로 이루어져 있으며 채널의 높이와 너비를 포함한 변수들의 길이는 0.5 mm ~ 5.0 mm 범위에서 설정하였다. 반응물로는 $H_2$와 CO의 혼합기체($H_2/CO$ molar ratio=2)를 사용하였으며 반응기의 운전 조건은 $GHSV=10000h^{-1}$, 압력 20 bar와 온도 483 K($210^{\circ}C$)이다. 민감도 분석의 결과로 반응채널 내부의 최대 온도는 채널의 높이에 비례하며 너비에 대해서는 특정 길이 이상에서 영향을 받지 않는 것을 확인하였으며 이 중에 냉각채널과의 거리와 채널 사이 간격은 채널 내부 온도에 거의 영향을 미치지 않았다. 따라서 채널 레이아웃에서 반응채널의 높이는 짧을수록(약 2 mm 이하), 너비는 길수록(약 4 mm 이상) 열제거뿐만 아니라 생산량 측면에서 이득을 얻을 수 있었다.

This paper deals with a parametric study on boot-shaped ribs in a rectangular cooling channel. Numerical analysis of the flow and heat transfer was performed using three-dimensional Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations with the Speziale, Sarkar and Gatski turbulence model. The parametric study was performed for the parameters, tip width-to rib width, tip height-to-rib height, rib height-to-channel height, and rib height-to-width ratios. To assess the cooling performance and friction loss, Numsselt number and friction factor were defined as the performance parameter, respectively. The results showed that the cooling performance and friction loss were seriously affected by the four geometric parameters.

본 연구는 낙동강의 지류 하천인 내성천을 대상으로, 장기간(1984~2001년)과 단기간(2009~2011년)의 하도 단면의 변화 특성과 원인에 대해 분석하였다. 지난 약 20년 동안 내성천 하류부의 대부분 지점에서는 최대 2m까지 하상 고도의 저하가 나타났다. 이는 지난 20~30년간 활발하게 이루어진 하상 골재 채취 작업과 하천 준설에 의한 영향으로 판단된다. 최근 2년 동안에는 NM1 지점에서 하도 내 사주의 규모가 크게 축소되는 변화가 나타났다. 그 원인은 NM1 지점의 바로 상류부에서 진행되고 있는 영주댐 공사로 인해 퇴적물 운반이 차단되고 있기 때문으로 보인다. 그러나 하도의 자연성이 상대적으로 양호한 NM2와 NL2 지점에서는 지난 2년간 미약하게나마 하상의 고도 상승이 발생하고 있다. 따라서 내성천에서는 인위적인 하도 간섭이 퇴적물 공급 감소에 따른 하상의 고도 저하에 가장 큰 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 판단된다.

The steady aerodynamic characteristics of a wing flying over a channel are investigated using a boundary-element method. The present method is validated by comparing the computed results with the measured data. Compared with a flat ground surface, the channel fence augmented the lift increase and induced drag reduction. When the fence is lower than the wing height, the gap between the wingtip and the fence does not affect the aerodynamic characteristics of the wing much. When the fence is higher than the wing height, the close gap increased the lift. The induced drag is reduced when the wing is placed near the ground or at the same height as the fence. It is believed that present results can be used in the conceptual design of the high-speed ground transporters flying over the channel.
