  • 항공기가 빙점 이하의 습도가 높은 구름대를 지날 때 액적이 항공기와 충돌하면 날개, 동체 등 항공기 구성품에 결빙이 발생한다. 특히 항공기의 날개에 결빙이 증식되면 공력 성능의 저하와 비행 안정성의 감소 등의 치명적인 안전 문제를 초래할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 항공기 날개에 적용되는 고양력 장치인 다중 익형의 결빙 증식량이 최소가 되도록 형상 최적설계를 수행하였다. 3차원 Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes 지배 방정식을 이용하여 공력해석을 수행하였고, 다물리 전산해석을 통해 결빙의 형상 및 증식량을 예측하였다. 최적설계의 목적함수는 결빙 증식량 최소화로 설정하였고, 설계변수는 Slat과 Flap의 전개 각도와 위치를 정의하는 형상 변수 6개를 선정하였다. 설계 과정에서 목적함수의 평가는 크리깅 근사모델을 사용하여 대체하였고 유전자 알고리즘을 적용하여 최적 형상을 도출하였다. 최적화를 수행한 결과, Slat과 Flap에 최적의 전개 각도와 위치를 적용하였을 때 결빙 증식량이 약 8% 감소하였다.

  • To prevent the ozonosphere from being destroyed by Halon, it is an urgent task to find out Halon replacement. As one of the replacements water mist have showed broad applications by its advantages: little pollution to environment (not destroying the ozone layer or bring green house effect), extinguishing fire quickly, consuming a small quantity of water and having little damage to the protected objects. The methods of generating water mist strongly influence fire suppression effectiveness, which determine the cone angle, drop size distribution, flux uniformity, and momentum of the generating spray. The traditional water mist nozzle included pressure jet nozzles, impingement nozzles and twin-fluid nozzles. All of them have more or less disadvantages for fire suppression. Therefore, many research institutes and corporations are taking up with innovations in mist generation. This article provided some recent studies in State Key Laboratory of Fire Science (SKLFS) of University of Science and Technology of China. SKLFS have investigated new methods of generating water mist (i.e. effervescent atomization and ultrasonic atomization). and self developed a series of nozzles and developed advanced DPIVS (Digital Particle Image Velocimetry and Sizing) technique. Characteristics of water mist (the distribution of droplet sizes, flux density, spray dynamics and cone angle) produced by these nozzles were measured under different conditions (work pressure, nozzle geometry, etc.) using LDV/APV and DPTVS systems. A series of experiments were performed to study the fire suppression effectiveness in different fire scenario (different kindsof the fuel, fire size and ventilation conditions). The fire extinguishing mechanisms of water mist was also discussed.

  • 본 연구는 스프링클러 분무의 통계적 액적수가화재 필드모델의 해석결과에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위해 수행되었다. 분무거동 및 화재유동을 해석하기 위해 사용된 해석모델은 미국의 표준기술연구원에서 개발된 FDS 5.2이며, 화재 시뮬레이션에서 각 스프링클러에서 생성되는 분무액적들은 액적크기, 속도, 온도 등의 특성이 유사한 통계적 라그랑지안 입자의 군집으로 표시된다. 본 연구에서는 실제 스프링클러에서 생성되는 액적수에 대한 계산에 이용되는 통계적 액적군집수의 비를 이용하여 분무액적의 통계적 군집수의 변화가 공간내부의 분무특성 및 화재해석 결과에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 수치해석 결과에 대한 통계적 분무액적수의 독립성을 확보하기 위해서는 FDS 모델에서 제공되는 기본값보다 다소 큰 값을 요구하고 있으며 FDS 분무 모델을 이용한 화재진압 시뮬레이션 수행시 통계적 군집수에 대한고찰과 추가적인 민감도 해석이 필요로 한다.

  • Urushiol, a natural monomeric oil, was used to prepare a detergentless micro-emulsion with water and 2-propanol The formation of micro-emulsion was verified by conductivity measurements and dynamic light scattering. The conductivity data showed phase change dynamics, a characteristics of micro-emulsions, and subsequent dynamic light scattering study further confirmed the phenomenon. Average water droplet diameter was 10 nm to 500 nm when the molar ratio of 2-propanol ranged from 0.40 to 0.44 . Earlier studies were performed on toluene and hexane, in which the insoluble substrate in water phase was added to the solvents to be reacted on by enzymes. However, in the present urushiol system, urushiol was used as both solvent and substrate in the laccase polymerization of urushiol. The laccase activity in the system was examined using polymerization of urushiol. The laccase activity in the system was examined using syringaldezine as a substrate, and the activity increased rapidly near the molar ratio of 2-propanol at 0.4, where micro-emulsion started. The activity rose until 0.46 and fell dramatically thereafter. The study of laccase activity in differing mole fractions of 2-propanol showed the existence of an ‘optimal zone’, where the activity of laccase was significantly higher. In order to analyze urushiol polymerization by laccase, a bubble column reactor using a detergentless micro-emulsion system was constructed. Comparative study using other organic solvents systems were conducted and the 2-propanol system was shown to yield the highest polymerization level. The study of laccase activity at a differing mole fraction of 2-propanol showed the existence of an ‘optimal zone’ where the activity was significantly higher. Also, 3,000 cP viscosity was achieved in actual urushi processing, using only 1/100 level of laccase present in urushi.

  • Mist-CVD is known to have advantages of low cost and high productivity compared to ALD and PECVD methods. It is capable of reacting to the substrate by misting an aqueous solution using ultrasonic waves under vacuum-free conditions of atmospheric pressure. In particular, Ga2O3 is regarded as advanced power semiconductor material because of its high quality of transmittance, and excellent electrical conductivity through N-type doping. In this study, Computational Fluid Dynamics were used to predict the uniformity of the thin film on a large-area substrate. And also the deposition pattern and uniformity were analyzed using the flow velocity and particle tracking method. The uniformity was confirmed by quantifying the deposition cross section with an FIB-SEM, and the consistency of the uniformity prediction was secured through the analysis of the CFD distribution. With the analysis and experimental results, the match rate of deposition area was 80.14% and the match rate of deposition thickness was 55.32%. As the experimental and analysis results were consistent, it was confirmed that it is possible to predict the deposition thickness uniformity of Mist-CVD.

  • This study investigated how adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AT-MSCs) respond to chondrogenic induction using droplet-based single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq). We analyzed 37,219 high-quality transcripts from control cells and cells induced for 1 week (1W) and 2 weeks (2W). Four distinct cell clusters (0-3), undetectable by bulk analysis, exhibited varying proportions. Cluster 1 dominated in control and 1W cells, whereas clusters (3, 2, and 0) exclusively dominated in control, 1W, and 2W cells, respectively. Furthermore, heterogeneous chondrogenic markers expression within clusters emerged. Gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis of differentially expressed genes unveiled cluster-specific variations in key biological processes (BP): (1) Cluster 1 exhibited up-regulation of GO-BP terms related to ribosome biogenesis and translational control, crucial for maintaining stem cell properties and homeostasis; (2) Additionally, cluster 1 showed up-regulation of GO-BP terms associated with mitochondrial oxidative metabolism; (3) Cluster 3 displayed up-regulation of GO-BP terms related to cell proliferation; (4) Clusters 0 and 2 demonstrated similar up-regulation of GO-BP terms linked to collagen fibril organization and supramolecular fiber organization. However, only cluster 0 showed a significant decrease in GO-BP terms related to ribosome production, implying a potential correlation between ribosome regulation and the differentiation stages of AT-MSCs. Overall, our findings highlight heterogeneous cell clusters with varying balances between proliferation and differentiation before, and after, chondrogenic stimulation. This provides enhanced insights into the single-cell dynamics of AT-MSCs during chondrogenic differentiation.

  • The drop formation dynamics of a shear thinning, elastic, yield stress ($\tau_o$) fluid (Carbopol 980 (poly(acrylic acid)) dispersions) in silicone oil has been investigated in a flow-focusing microfluidic channel. The rheological character of each solution investigated varied from Netwonian-like through to highly non-Newtonian and was varied by changing the degree of neutralization along the poly (acrylic acid) backbone. We have observed that the drop size of these non-Newtonian fluids (regardless of the degree of neutralisation) showed bimodal behaviour. At first we observed increases in drop size with increasing viscosity ratio (viscosity ratio=viscosity of dispersed phase (DP)/viscosity of continuous phase (CP)) at low flowrates of the continuous phases, and thereafter, decreasing drop sizes as the flow rate of the CP increases past a critical value. Only at the onset of pinching and during the high extensional deformation during pinch-off of a drop are any differences in the non-Newtonian characteristics of these fluids, that is extents of shear thinning, elasticity and yield stress ($\tau_o$), apparent. Changes in these break-off dynamics resulted in the observed differences in the number and size distribution of secondary drops during pinch-off for both fluid classes, Newtonian-like and non-Newtonian fluids. In the case of the Newtonian-like drops, a secondary drop was generated by the onset of necking and breakup at both ends of the filament, akin to end-pinching behavior. This pinch-off behavior was observed to be unaffected by changes in viscosity ratio, over the range explored. Meanwhile, in the case of the non-Newtonian solutions, discrete differences in behaviour were observed, believed to be attributable to each of the non-Newtonian properties of shear thinning, elasticity and yield stress. The presence of a yield stress ($\tau_o$), when coupled with slow flow rates or low viscosities of the CP, reduced the drop size compared to the Newtonian-like Carbopol dispersions of much lower viscosity. The presence of shear thinning resulted in a rapid necking event post onset, a decrease in primary droplet size and, in some cases, an increase in the rate of drop production. The presence of elasticity during the extensional flow imposed by the necking event allowed for the extended maintenance of the filament, as observed previously for dilute solutions of linear polymers during drop break-up.

  • 농작물들의 크기와 형태는 매우 다양하며 생육 환경도 각기 다르다. 따라서 드론을 활용하여 농약을 살포할 때에는 각 농작물에 대한 재배 환경과 특성이 고려되어야 하며, 이에 따라 드론의 비행고도, 전진속도 등 비행 조건이 달라져야 한다. 실제로 비행 조건에 따라 농약의 액적 유동이 크게 영향을 받게 되며, 살포 영역에 큰 변화가 발생하고 이로 인해 불균일한 액적 분포가 후류에 형성되어 농약의 전달 효율성이 떨어질 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 비산에 대한 위험성이 존재하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 농업용 드론을 사용하여 특성이 다른 3가지 농작물을 선정하고 드론의 비행 조건을 각각 다르게 하여 농약을 살포했을 때 후류에서의 노즐 유동을 수치해석을 통하여 분석하였으며, 전달되는 액체의 비율을 확률 밀도 함수의 평균 제곱근을 나눈 새로운 성능지수를 이용하여 비교함으로써 작물의 특성에 따른 드론의 농약 살포 가이드라인을 구축하고자 한다.
