We use three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations to investigate how the dynamic state of emerging magnetic field is related to the twist of field lines. Emergence of magnetic field is considered as one of the key physical process producing solar activity such as flares, jets, and coronal mass ejections. To understand these activities we have to know dynamic nature and electric current structure provided by emerging magnetic field. To demonstrate dynamic nature of field lines, we focus on the factors such as curvature of magnetic field line and scale height of magnetic field strength. These factors show that strong twist case forms two-part structure in which the central part is close to a force-free state while the outer marginal part is in a fairly dynamic state. For weak twist case, it still shows two-part structure but the tendency becomes weaker than strong twist case. We discuss how the curvature distribution affects the dynamic nature of emerging magnetic field. We also investigate electric current distribution provided by emerging field lines to show a possible relation between electric current structure and sigmoid observed in a preflare phase.

In this study we use three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations to investigate how the dynamic state of emerging magnetic field is related to the twist of field lines. Emerging magnetic field forms a magnetic structure on the Sun where various kinds of activity such as solar flares, jets, and coronal mass ejections are observed. To understand the physical mechanism for producing such activity, we have to know the dynamic nature of this structure. Since flares are the manifestation of rapidly dissipating electric current in the corona, we also investigate the distribution of current density inside the structure and examine how it depends on the field-line twist. To demonstrate the dynamic structure of emerging magnetic field, we focus on the factors characterizing the geometric property and stratification of emerging magnetic field, such as the curvature of field line and the scale height of field strength. These two factors show that emerging field forms a two-part structure in which the central part is close to a force-free state while the outer marginal part is in a fairly dynamic state where magnetic pressure force is dominant. We discuss how the field-line twist affects the two-part structure and also explain a possible relation between electric current structure and sigmoid observed in a preflare phase.

In this study, the effect of particle aggregation on dynamic response time of Electrorheological (ER) fluid is investigated. The particle aggregation time is defined as the time interval between the application of the field and the formation of the first chain bridging the two electrodes. The dynamic response times of an ER fluid sheared between two concentric cylinders have been obtained under two different experimental conditions: the one is that the electric field is induced before shearing, and the other is that the electric field is induced after shearing. From the difference between two response times, the particle aggregation times are determined under various electric fields and shear rates. The experimental results show that the aggregation rate is decreased with an increase of shear rate, while electric field has little effect on it. Therefore, it is verified that the hydrodynamic force hinders the formation of chain-like structures.

In order to investigate the effects of an electric field on EHD(Electro-hydrodynamic) nucleate boiling hat transfer characteristics in a nonuniform electric field under saturated pool boiling, the basic study has been performed experimentally. In the present study, the working fluid is R-113 and the plate-wire electrode system is used to generate a steep electric field gradient. Boiling parameters are investigated by using a high speed camera. The electric field distribution around a wire is obtained to understand the effect of an electric field on bubble departure/movement. The experimental results show EHD effects are much more considerable when the applied voltage increases. Bubbles depart away from the heated wire in radial direction. It is confirmed that the mechanisms of EHD nucleate boiling are closely connected with the dynamic behavior of bubbles. The boiling parameters are significantly changed by the electric field strength. With increasing applied voltages, the bubble size decreases and the nucleation site density, bubble velocity and bubble frequency increase.

To understand EHD nucleate boiling heat transfer enhancement, EHD effects on R-113 nucleate boiling heat transfer in a non-uniform electric field were investigated. The pool boiling heat transfer and the dynamic behavior of bubbles in d.c./a.c. electric fields under a saturated or subcooled boiling were studied by using a plate-wire electrode and a high speed camera. From the pool boiling heat transfer study, the shift of the pool boiling curve, the increase of the heat transfer and the delay of ONB and CHF points to higher heat fluxes were observed. From the dynamic behavior of bubbles, it was observed that bubbles departed away from the whole surface of the heated wire in radial direction due to EHD effects by a nonuniform electric field. With increasing applied voltages, the bubble size decreased and the active nucleation site and the departure number of bubbles showed the different trend. The present study indicates that the EHD nucleate boiling heat transfer is closely connection with the dynamic behavior of bubbles and the secondary flow induced near the heated surface. Therefore, the basic studies on the bubble behavior such as bubble frequency, bubble diameter, bubble velocity and flow characteristics are necessary for complete understanding of the enhancement mechanism of the boiling heat transfer using an electric field.

The computational fluid dynamic analysis has been conducted for the thermo-chemical flow field in an arcjet thruster with mono-propellant Hydrazine (N2H4) as a working fluid. The Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations are modified to analyze compressible flows with the thermal radiation and electric field. The Maxwell equation, which is loosely coupled with the fluid dynamic equations through the Ohm heating and Lorentz forces, is adopted to analyze the electric field induced by the electric arc. The chemical reactions of Hydrazine were assumed to be infinitely fast due to the high temperature field inside the arcjet thruster. The chemical and the thermal radiation models for the nitrogen-hydrogen mixture and optically thick media respectively, were incorporated with the fluid dynamic equations. The results show that performance indices of the arcjet thruster with 1kW arc heating are improved by amount of 180% in thrust and 200% in specific impulse more than frozen flow. In addition to thermo-physical process inside the arcjet thruster is understood from the flow field results.

Dynamic responses of electrorheological (ER) fluids in steady pressure flow to stepwise electric field excitations are investigated experimentally. The transient periods under various applied electric fields and flow velocities were determined from the pressure behavior of the ER fluid in the flow channel with two parallel-plate electrodes. The pressure response times were exponentially decreased with the increase of the flow velocity, but increased with the increase of the applied electric field strength. In order to investigate the cluster structure formation of the ER particles, it was verified using the flow visualization technique that the transient response of ER fluids in the flow mode is assigned to the densification process in the competition of the electric field-induced particle attractive interaction forces and the hydrodynamic forces, unlike that in the shear mode determined by the aggregation process.

In this paper, dynamic buckling of the smart subjected to blast load subjected to electric field is studied. The sandwich structure is rested on Pasternak foundation with springs and shear elements. Applying piezoelasticity theory and hyperbolic shear deformation beam theory (HSDBT), the motion equations are derived by energy method. For calculating the dynamic instability region (DIR) of the sandwich structure, differential quadrature method (DQM) along with Bolotin method is used. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of applied voltage, geometrical parameters of structure and boundary conditions on the DIR of the structure. The results show that applying negative voltage, the DIR will be happened at higher excitation frequencies. In addition, the clamped-clamped beam leads to higher excitation frequency with respect to simply supported boundary condition.

This paper presents experiments on the evaluation of characteristics of ER fluids used for vibration control of application in intelligence type process control systems. Dynamic characteristics of the actuator(beam) embedded with the ER fluid can be controlled by changing the strength of the electric field applied on the ER fluids, thus provides a mean to avoid the resonance. In case electric field is supplied to the smart structure with ER fluids, vibration energy is dissipated more than the beam without electric field, because particles in ER fluid form a chain structure in the presence of electric field. The damping and stiffness of the beam with ER fluid are increased when the applied electric field increases. The characteristics of damping and stiffness of the ER fluid with various electric field strength were investigated by conducting a vibration test of the beam with ER fluid. If it applies characteristics of the ER fluids, it will be able to apply in the PLC control system for the vibration which occurs from process system.

Electro-Rheological(ER) fluids undergo a phase-change when subjected to an external electric field, and this phase-change typically manifests itself as a many-order-of magnitude change in the rheological behavior. This paper presents experimental results on material properties for an ER fluids of arabic gum components subjected to electrical fatigues. As a first step, ER fluids are made of arabic gum 25% of particle weight-concentration. Following the construction of test mechanism for estimated durability of ER fluid, the dynamic yield stress, shear stress and current density of the ER fluids are experimentally distilled as a function of DC electric field. The durability estimation of operated ER fluids are distilled and compared with those of unused ER fluids. In addition, the surface roughness of the employed electrode for copper and aluminum are evaluated as a function of the number of the electric-field cycles.
