This paper presents the effects of different operating parameters on the performance of a proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell by a three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model. The effects of different operating parameters on the performance of PEM fuel cell studied using pure hydrogen on the anode side and air on the cathode side. The various parameters are temperatures, pressures, humidification of the gas steams and various combinations of these parameters. In addition, geometrical and material parameters such as the gas diffusion layer (GDL) thickness and porosity as well as the ratio between the channel width and the land area were investigated.

Nowadays, computational fluid dynamics is commonly used by design engineers to evaluate and compare losses in hydraulic components as it is less expensive and less time consuming than model tests. For that purpose, an automatic tool for casing and distributor analysis will be presented in this paper. An in-house mesh generator and a Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equation solver using the standard $k-{\omega}$ shear stress transport (SST) turbulence model will be used to perform all computations. Two solvers based on the C++ OpenFOAM library will be used and compared to a commercial solver. The performance of the new fully coupled block solver developed by the University of Lucerne and Andritz will be compared to the standard 1.6ext segregated simpleFoam solver and to a commercial solver. In this study, relative comparisons of different geometries of casing and distributor will be performed. The present study is thus aimed at validating the block solver and the tool chain and providing design engineers with a faster and more reliable analysis tool that can be integrated into their design process.

이 연구의 목적은 초등학교 학생들을 대상으로 한 'F1 in Schools Program'을 개발하여 적용하여 보고 학생, 학부모, 학교의 반응을 조사하여 현장 적용가능성을 평가하고자 하는데 있다. 충청북도 청주시 소재의 W 초등학교 5학년 15명의 어린이를 대상으로 'F1 in Schools Program'(초등학교 학생용 워크북)을 개발한 후 현장 적용 가능성을 평가하기 위해 2007년 1월 22일부터 2월 2일까지 총 60차시에 걸쳐 수업을 진행하고 학생, 학부모, 학교의 반응을 조사하였다. 본 프로그램에서 활용하고 있는 CAD(Computer Aided Design), CFD(Computation Fluid Dynamics), CAM(Computer Aided Manufacturing), CNC Machine의 프로그램은 학생들이 직접 해볼 수 있는 참여와 신기성과 같은 특성으로 흥미를 끌기에 좋은 소재가 되고 있으나 프로그램을 조작하기에 초등학생의 인지 발달 수준 및 공작 능력이 미치지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 학생, 학부모, 학교의 프로그램에 대한 만족도는 비교적 높았으나 학생의 경우 시간이 부족하다 응답하였고, 학부모와 학교의 경우 프로그램에 대한 이해가 부족함을 알 수 있었다. 학생들은 프로그램 실시 전보다 실시 후에 자동차의 속력과 관계된 과학적 개념이 향상되는 결과를 얻었다.

The goal of this research is the shape design of the valve using a computer simulation. For an analysis a basic mathematical model describing compression cycle is considered as consisting of five sets of coupled equations. These are the volume equation (kinematics), valve dynamic equation (dynamics), ideal gas equation (thermodynamics), Bernoulli equation (fluid dynamics), and dynamic equation of fluid particle based on Helmholtz equation (acoustics). Valve motion is made by the superposition of free vibration modes obtained by the finite element method. That is, the eigenvalues and eigenvectors are the sufficient modeling factors fur the valve in the simulation program. Thus, to design a shape of the valve, shape design sensitivity through chain-ruled derivatives is considered from two sensitivity coefficients, one is the design sensitivity of the capability of compressor with respect to the eigenvalues of the valve, and the other is the design sensitivity of the eigenvalue with respect to the shape change of the valve. In this research, the continuum design sensitivity analysis concepts are used for the latter.

해양에 기름이 유출되면 방제작업의 초기단계에서 기름의 이동 및 확산을 차단하기 위하여 오일 붐을 사용하는 것이 일반적이다. 그러나 오일 붐은 유속, 기름의 밀도와 점성, 수심, 기름의 양, 그리고 붐 흘수의 길이 등과 같은 여러 인자들에 의해 그 포획능력이 영향을 받는다. 본 연구에서는 이들 누유인자가 오일 붐의 포획과정에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 체계적으로 파악하기 위하여 컴퓨터 모델링을 수행하였다. 모델링을 위하여 CFD(computational fluid dynamics) 프로그램 중에서 가장 널리 알려진 Fluent를 이용하였으며 기존의 실험자료와 비교함으로써 모델링 결과를 검증하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 방제작업 책임자와 오일 붐 설계자에게 유용한 참고자료가 될 것으로 기대된다.

The indoor environments in high-rise buildings are generally well enclosed by defined boundary conditions. Here, a numerical simulation method based on the Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM), which aims to model and simulate the turbulent flow accurately in an enclosed environment, and its comparison with traditional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) results, are presented in this paper. CFD has become a powerful tool for predicting and evaluating enclosed airflows with the rapid advance in computer capacity and speed, and various types of CFD turbulence modeling and its application and validation have been reported. The LBM is a relatively new method; it involves solving of the discrete Boltzmann equation to simulate the fluid flow with a collision model instead of solving Navier-Stokes equations. In this study, the LBM-based scheme of flow pattern and particle dispersion analyses are validated using the benchmark test case of two- and three-dimensional and isothermal conditions (IEA/Annex 20 case); the prediction accuracy and advantages are also discussed by comparison with the results of CFD.

This thesis investigates the jetting characteristics of an aerosol jet printing (AJP) process as a function of design and operating conditions. The governing equations of the AJP system are derived for experimentation and analysis. To understand the characteristics of the AJP system, it analyzes the jetting characteristics as a function of the flow rate of the carrier gas and the sheath gas, and the variation of the linewidth with the nozzle exit size based on particle tracking. The thesis focuses on computational fluid dynamics (CFD), which is a computer simulation. The particle tracking results obtained by CFD were analyzed using MATLAB. CFD analytical models can be analyzed in environments with different conditions and consider more specific situations than mathematical computational models. The validity of the CFD analysis is shown by comparing the experimental results with the CFD analysis.

Remotely operated vehicles or autonomous underwater vehicles have been used for exploiting seabed natural resources. In this study, the autonomous underwater vehicle of hovering type(HAUV) is developed to observe underwater objects in close distance. A dynamic model with six degrees of freedom is established, capturing the motion characteristics of the HAUV. The equations of motion are generated for the dynamic control simulation of the HAUV. The added mass, drag and lift forces are included in the computer model. Computational fluid dynamics simulation is carried out using this computer model. The drag coefficients are produced from the CFD.
