Two measurement techniques of droplet sizing, an imaging technique(PMAS) and a phase-Doppler measurement technique (PDPA), have been compared using a water spray from a pressurized-type swirl nozzle. The result showed that SMD measured by PDPA was larger than that measured by PMAS by about 40 %. Such discrepancy of SMD could be explained by the fact that the light signal intensity used by PDPA can be biased towards larger particles. On the other hand there could be lower opportunity to capture the images of the large particles with PMAS, since the large particles could be out of sight due to their high speed.

Droplet impinging into a cavity at micro-scale is one of important fluidic issues for microfabrications, e.g. bio-chip applications and inkjet deposition processes in the PLED panel manufacturing. The droplets generally dispensing from an inkjet head, which contains an array of nozzles, have a volume in several picoliters, while each nozzle jets the droplets into cavities with micron-meter size located on substrates. Due to measurement difficulties at micro-scale, the numerical simulation could serve as an efficient and preliminary way to evaluate the micro-sized droplet impinging behavior into a cavity. The micro-fluidic flow is computed by solving the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations through a finite volume discretization. The droplet front is predicted by a volume-of-fluid approach, in which the surface tension is modeled as a function of the fluid concentration. This paper discusses the influence of fluid properties, such as surface tension and fluid viscosity, on micro-fluidic characteristics at different jetting speeds in the deposition process via the proposed numerical approach.

It is well known that the flow and spray characteristics is critical factor on the performance and emission of a direct injection diesel engine. So this study aims to investigate the interaction of flow and spray characteristics. At first, in cylinder flow distributions in swirl adaptor for 4-valve cylinder head of DI Diesel engine were investigated under steady conditions for different SCV angles mounted on the cylinder head with steady rig test and 2-D LDV. And the in-cylinder flow was quantified in terms of mean flow coefficient and swirl ratio/tumble ratio. It was found that the swirl ratio is controlled between 2.3 and 3.8. Then spray characteristics of the intermittent injection were investigated. PDA system was utilized for measurement of a droplet size and velocity. The analyses of the PDA results are carried out with Time Dividing Method. It was found that there is a correlation between the swirl flow and SMD. The droplet size and the velocity were nearly constant value with each SCV angle. And the swirl ratio is higher, SMD smaller. The swirl ratio was helpful factor to the atomization of droplet.

In general, the oxi-nitriding method is well known as such a surface treatment way for substantial enhancement in corrosion resistance, even comparable to that of titanium. However, there are still lacks of information on thermal performance of the oxi-nitriding surface being of additional compound layers on the base substrate. Above all, the quantitative measurement of its thermal performance still was not evaluated yet. Thus, the present study experimentally measures the thermal resistance of the oxi-nitriding surface during droplet evaporation and then estimates heat transfer performance with the use of the onedimensional heat transfer model in vertical direction. From the experimental results, it is found that the total evaporation time slightly increased with the thermal resistance caused by the oxi-nitriding layer, showing a maximum difference of approximately 20% with that of the bare surface. Although the heat transfer performance of oxi-nitriding surface became slightly lower than that of the bare surface, the oxi-nitriding surface exhibits much better heat transfer performance compared to titanium.

The spray characteristics of the oxidizer-rich preburner are investigated. From the PDPA measurement, droplet SMD of $210{\mu}m$ and droplet axial velocity of 38 m/s are measured at 100 mm distance from the nozzle tip on the fuel pressure of $25kgf/cm^2$ and oxidizer pressure of $10kgf/cm^2$. The droplet velocity is decreased with the axial distance and the oxidizer spray makes dominant effect on the combined spray characteristics of the oxidizer-rich preburner injector.

본 연구에서는 PEDOT:PSS와 crystalline-ITO (c-ITO) 박막 계면에서의 화학적 반응을(박리 및 용해 특성)을 관찰하기위해 spin-coating 및 droplet dropping을 통하여 PEDOT:PSS 용액을 코팅하고 이후 화학적 거동에 따른 전기적, 광학적 및 구조적 특성 변화를 관찰하였다. 강산성을 띄는 PEDOT:PSS (Al 4083) 박막의 코팅 전, 0.4T sodalime glass 위에 열처리를 통하여 성막된 c-ITO 투명전극을 15분 동안 상압 오존 공정을 통하여 계면처리함으로써 다른 변수의 영향을 배제하였으며, 표면 처리 후 spin-coating 및 droplet dropping method를 통하여 PEDOT:PSS를 코팅하여 c-ITO와 PEDOT:PSS 계면사이의 화학적 반응의 영향을 시간 경과에 따라 분석하였다. PEDOT:PSS 코팅 후 솔밴트 제거를 위해 hot plate를 이용하여 $110^{\circ}C$로 열처리되었다. Spin-coating 방법과는 달리 droplet dropping 방법을 통해 형성된 c-ITO 투명전극/PEDOT:PSS 계면에서는 spin coating에서 적용된 동일한 공정변수적용에도 불구하고 PEDOT:PSS의 산성으로 인한 ITO 투명전극 표면에서의 화학적 조성변화가(In, Sn, O의 조성의 변화) 발생됨을 x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy 결과를 통해 확인하였다. 뿐만 아니라 계면 조성반응 변화에 따른 전기적 특성 및 광학적 투과율의 열화가 발생됨을 Hall measurement 측정과 UV/Vis spectrometer 결과를 통하여 도출하였다. 본 결과를 통해 c-ITO/PEDOT:PSS 사이에서 발생되는 내산특성/계면 화학변화가 유기태양전지에서의 산화물 투명전극과 유기물 계면 열화현상에 영향을 받을 수 있음을 나타낸다.

The new principle to measure a sizing degree by a contact angle was developed using an automatic determination of the 3-end point coordinates of the water droplet on a sheet, which could diminish the operator's bias during measurement. A constant amount of water was first placed on a sample sheet by a water dispenser, and then an image of the liquid droplet was captured by a digital camera and then transmitted to a computer. The program measuring for contact angle extracted a liquid contour by Gaussian function combined with a 8-direction chain code. The Euclidean equation was applied to the binary image of the liquid contour in order to measure the diameter of the contour. Finally, the contact angle of the liquid was calculated by using the diameter and the top coordinates. In addition, a surface free energy of the sample sheet and an elapsed time taken up to the complete absorption into the sheet were simultaneously measured with the contact angle.

U.S. Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) has developed CHECWORKS program and applied it to power plant piping lines since some lines were ruptured by flow-accelerated corrosion (FAC) in 1978. Nowadays the CHECWORKS program has been used to manage pipe wall thinning phenomena caused by FAC. However, various erosion mechanisms can occur in carbon-steel piping. Most common forms of erosion are cavitation, flashing, liquid droplet impingement erosion (LDIE), and Solid Particle Erosion (SPE). Those erosion mechanisms cause pipe wall thinning, leaking, rupturing, and even result in unplanned shutdowns of utilities. Especially, in two phase condition, LDIE damages a wide scope of plant pipelines. Furthermore, LDIE is the major culprit to cause such as power runback by pipe leaking. This paper describes the methodologies that manage wall thinning and also predict LDIE wall thinning area. For this study, current properties of two-phase condition are investigated and LDIE areas are selected. The areas are checked by B-Scan method to detect the effect of wall thinning phenomena.

A nozzle with vortex generator was used to develop the low pressure nozzle with high atomization performance and the nozzle atomized the liquid by centrifugal shear forces. In order to analyze the atomization characteristics, a shadowgraphy method was used and the measurement of droplet size was performed by using laser diffraction analyzer. The liquid injection pressure was fixed as 0.03 bar which is very low pressure and the gas injection pressures were changed from 0 bar to 2.0 bar. As a result, the breakup was achieved at the air injection pressure of 0.25 bar and over. The nozzle with the orifice diameter of 0.4 mm and the orifice gap of 0.25 mm presented small droplet diameters under 50 at the air injection pressure of 0.75 bar.
