  • This work deals with designing the aircraft wing and simulating the flow behavior on it to determine the aerodynamically efficient wing design. A NACA 4412 airfoil is used to design the base wing model. A wing with a rectangular planform and the one with curved leading edge planform was designed such that their surface areas are the same. Then, a comprehensive flow analysis is carried out at various velocities and angle of attacks using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and the results were interpreted and compared with the experimental values. This study shows that there is a significant improvement in the aerodynamic performance of the curved leading edge wing over the wing with rectangular planform.

  • It is confirmed that the cause of anode current in SEDs (surface conduction electron emission displays) is the inertial force of electron emitted from the cathode surface in the calculation of electron trajectory. In the fissure of sub-micron, most of electrons emitted from the area of the cathode edge flow into the coplanar anode, while some electrons are emitted into the display surface by the current ratio of $10^{-3}$. The later electrons are forced to fly into the display surface by the centrifugal force due to the curved electric field between top side surfaces near the fissure.

  • The heat (mass) transfer characteristics on the blade surface of a first-stage turbine rotor cascade for power generation has been investigated by employing the naphthalene sublimation technique. A four-axis profile measurement system is successfully developed for the measurements of the local heat (mass) transfer coefficient on the curved blade surface. The experiment is carried out at the free-stream Reynolds number and turbulence intensity of $2.09\times10^5$ and 1.2%. The results on the blade surfaces show that the local heat (mass) transfer on the suction surface is strongly influenced by the endwall vortices, but that on the pressure surface shows a nearly two-dimensional nature. The pressure surface has a more uniform distribution of heat load than the suction one.

  • A numerical prediction method has been proposed to predict non-linear free surface oscillation in a three-dimensional container. The fluid motions are numerically predicted with Navier-Stokes equations discretized in a Lagrangian scheme with sufficient numerical accuracy. The profile of a free surface is precisely represented with three-dimensional body-fitted coordinates (BFC), which are regenerated in each computational step on the basis of the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) formulation. In order to confirm the reliability of the computational method, it was firstly applied to three-dimensional flows within complicated-shaped rigid boundaries, such as curved pipes and ducts. Than it was applied to benchmark computations related to free surface oscillations. Following these basic verifications, non-linear sloshings in a cylindrical tank and transitions from sloshing to swirling motions were numerically predicted. Throughout these computations, the applicability of the present computational method has been confirmed and some of the predicted free surface motions were visualized as sequential images and animations to understand their dynamic futures.

  • In 3-dimensional Euclidean space, the geometric figures of a regular curve are completely determined by the curvature function and the torsion function of the curve, and surfaces are the fundamental curved spaces for pioneering study in modern geometry as well as in classical differential geometry. In this paper, we define parametrizations for surface by using parametric functions whose images are in the normal plane of each point on a given curve, and then obtain some results relating the Gaussian curvature of the surface with curvature and torsion of the given curve. In particular, we find some conditions for the surface to have either nonpositive Gaussian curvature or nonnegative Gaussian curvature.

  • The twisting and extrusion process of the product with involute helical fin from the round billet is developed by the upper bound analysis. The twisting of extruded product is caused by the twisted inclined die surface connecting the die enterance section and the die exit section linearly. In the analysis, the internal shear surface is defined as the curved twisted plane from the twisting of die surface and the shear work is calculated by the consumption of shear energy. The increase rate of angular velocity is determined by the minimization of plastic work. The angular velocity of die exit can be controlled by the land length and the length of inclined die. The alular velocity assums to be increased linearly by the axial distance from the die enterance to the die exit. The results of the analysis show that the angular velocity of the extruded product increases with the die twisting angle, the reduction of area, and decreases with the die length, the friction constant.

  • The authors investigated anomalous nanoporous structures of aluminum oxides during the Al anodization process. We implemented two-steps anodizing process for the electrolyte of oxalic acid. As increasing DC voltages, lattice constants are proportionally increased. For the curved surface, the surface electric field was distorted so that the nanoporous pipe channel changed to a cone-type shape. We confirmed the periodicity by using the FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) analysis.

  • Algorithms on modification of NURBS surface requires modeling history to change its boundary conditions. The history is stored when the surface is modeled and saved in the corresponding model file. But when the model is transferred to other systems the history generally cannot be recognized. So modification algorithms without history is highly required. Previous works on the field is concentrated in the point based modification without any restriction condition. Therefore this study is intended to develope a curved based modification algorithm with restriction conditions. A rapid modification algorithm is suggested, implemented and tested.

  • When a strong electric field is applied between a sharply curved electrode and a blunt surface, the corona may result in a gas movement in the electrode gap which is directed toward the blunt surface. That is called the corona wind. It enhances heat and mass transfer between the surface and the surrounding gas. Moreover such enhancement causes no noise or vibration, which can be applied in complex, isolated geometries, and allows simple control of surface temperatures. This paper examines the relationship between the corona wind and the relative humidity. The facility consists of high voltage power supply thin tungsten wire, plate electrode, multimeter, microammeter and flow meter. Gas velocity is a linear function of voltage, relative humidity and is proportional to the square root of the current. The maximum velocities for the positive and negative corona discharge are 1.9 m/s (2.74 CMM/m), 1.5 m/s(2.15 CMM/m), respectively.

  • By development of heat resistant alloy, there are much improvement of gas turbine engines. But heat resistant alloy has difficulty of machining. therefore, ECM (Electrochemical Machining) is used for Machining of 3 dimensional curved surface of Ni-base alloy. The purpose of this paper is to investigate ECM parameters that make tile good surface for Ni-base alloy blade. For this purpose, we have been investigated that center line average surface roughness(R$\sub$a/), average R$\sub$a/, Maximum R$\sub$a/ and Standard deviation of R$\sub$a/ for measuring positions is influenced on ECM parameters such as electrolyte types, dwell time, electrolyte pressure and sort of electrolyte for Inconel 718 and Waspaloy.
