Oblique impinging plane jets were investigated experimentally and numerically at Reynolds number 21000. The inclination angle was varied from 90.deg.(normal to the impinging plate) to 60.deg.. The distance H between the nozzle exit and the stagnation point on the impinging plate was fixed at H/D=8. The working fluid was air. The mean velocity components and turbulent quantities were measured by a hot-wire anemometer. And the static pressure distributions on the impinging plate were measured by a Pitot tube. In numerical computation, the governing partial differential equations of elliptic type were solved with conventional k-.epsilon. turbulence model. The measurements show that, after impingement, the jet half width alone the wall increases in both directions, and that similarity for each turbulent quantity such as Reynolds shear stress or turbulent kinetic energy is revealed in the wall jet region. The computed results show some deviation from experimental data in the impingement region, where streamline curvature is significant. However, the computed results agree qualitatively well with measurements.

In order to establish a theoretical basis for the analyses of transient behaviors in stratified thermal storage tanks, analytical approaches to an improved one-dimensional model are made. In the present model the storage tank is treated as a finite region with an adiabatic tank exit, whereas it has been considered as a simple semi-infinite region previously. Application of the Laplace transformation and the Inversion theorem to the governing equations makes it possible to obtain an exact infinite-series solution, which is convergent only at sufficiently large time. Accordingly a complementary solution which is available for short times, i.e., the time range of this study is sought by an approximate method. The approximate solution which is rigorously validated through the examination of neglected terms in the solution procedure agrees quite well with the exact one. Moreover, it is simpler to use and more convenient to interpret the physical meaning of the solution. Comparison of the present solution with the previous ones shows relatively large difference near the tank bottom, which results from the more realistic boundary condition adopted in the present model. Some representative results by the approximate solution including effects of the Peclet number on temperature distrbutions are illustrated to show the utility of this study. In consequence, it is expected that the present results based on the improved model replace the foregoing ones as a new theoretical reference for studies of thermal stratification fields.

A projectile when passes through a moving shock wave, experiences drastic changes in the aerodynamic forces as it moves from a high-pressure region to a low pressure region. These sudden changes in the forces are attributed to the wave structures produced by the projectile-flow field interaction, and are responsible for destabilizing the trajectory of the projectile. These flow fields are usually encountered in the vicinity of the launch tube exit of a ballistic range facility, thrusters, retro-rocket firings, silo injections, missile firing ballistics, etc. In earlier works, projectile was assumed in a steady flow field when the computations start and the blast wave maintains a constant strength. However, in real situations, the projectile produces transient effects in the flow field which have a deterministic effect on the overtaking process. In the present work, the overtaking problem encountered in the near-field of muzzle guns is investigated for several projectile Mach numbers. Computations have been carried out using a chimera mesh scheme. The results show that, the unsteady wave structures are completely different from that of the steady flow field where the blast wave maintains a constant strength, and the supersonic and subsonic overtaking conditions cannot be distinguished by identifying the projectile bow shock wave only.

Molecular dynamics simulations were carried out to analyze the impact on turbine rotational power based on nozzle shapes. y varying two parameters, turbine rotational velocity w and initial velocities ($V_x,V_y$) for generating molecules, turbine rotation velocities of molecules in turbine entrance arc region and turbine exit arc region were calculated. Average momentums were calculated over two regions, respectively and the differences (AMD) were compared and analyzed. The optimal range of w values to enhance AMD was investigated over 4 different nozzle shapes used, and an excellent nozzle shape to achieve more turbine rotational power was drawn.

The intermittent spray characteristics of a multi-hole diesel nozzle with a 2-spring nozzle holder were investigated experimentally. Without changing the total orifice exit area, the hole number of the multi-hole nozzle varied from 3 (d$\_$n/=0.42 mm) to 5 (d$\_$n/=0.32 mm). The time-resolved droplet diameters of the spray including the SMD (Saute. mean diameter) and the AMD (arithmetic mean diameter), injected intormittently from the multi-hole nozzles into still ambient ai., were measured by using a 2-D PDPA (phase Doppler particle analyze.). The 5-hole nozzle spray shows the smaller spray cone angle, the decreased SMD distributions and the small difference between the SMD and the AMD, compared with that of the 3-hole nozzle spray. From the SMD distributions with the radial distance, the spray structure can be classified into the three regions : (a) the inner region showing the high SMD distribution , (b) the mixing flow region where the shea. flow structure would be constructed : and (c) the outer region formed through the disintegration processes of the spray inner region and composed of fine droplets. Through the SMD distributions along the spray centerline, it reveals that the SMD decreases rapidly after showing the maximum value in the vicinity of the nozzle tip. The SMD remains the constant value near the Z/d$\_$n/=166 and 156.3 for the 3-hole and 5-hole nozzles, which illustrate that the disintegration processes of the 5-hole nozzle spray proceed more rapidly than that of the 3-hole nozzle spray.

Oblique basal skull fractures resulting from lateral crushing injuries involving both clivus and occipital condyle are rare due to their deep locations. Furthermore, these fractures may present clinically with multiple cranial nerve injuries because neural exit routes are restricted in this intricate region. The authors present an interesting case of basal skull fractures involving the clivus and occipital condyle and presenting with sixth and contralateral twelfth cranial nerve deficits. Clinico-anatomic correlations and the courses of cranial nerve deficits are reiterated. To the authors' knowledge, no other report has been previously issued on concomitant sixth and contralateral twelfth cranial nerve palsies following closed head injury.

Equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) provides an efficient procedure for introducing an ultrafine grain size into a material. In this study, ECAP were conducted on IF-steel to investigate the effect of friction and processing temperatures on the deformation characteristics of the samples. Due to the blocking effect of the previously pressed samples residing in the exit channel, the shear pattern (especially on the bottom region) changes.

This paper presents a numerical investigation of the influence of the blade back sweep angle on the performance and flow characteristics in a centrifugal compressor with a vaneless diffuser. Five impellers with different back sweep angles were tested in the flow simulations. It was found that a low back sweep angle could improve the total-to-total pressure ratio and the work coefficient over whole operating ranges. However, the flow field in an impeller with a low back sweep angle produced a more non-uniform velocity distribution at the impeller exit because the wake region was significantly increased. As a consequence, the impeller with a low back sweep angle caused a low diffuser performance.

It has been reported that if eight small nozzles are arranged along the circle of 40 $^{\sim}$ 72 times the diameter of single nozzle, the propane non-premixed flames are not extinguished even in 200m/s, In this research, experiments were extended to the methane flame. Nine nozzles were used- eight was evenly located along the perimeter of the imaginary circle and one at the geometric center. The space between nozzles, s, the exit velocity and the role of the jet from the center nozzle were considered. On the contrary to the propane non-premixed case, the maximum blowout velocity for the methane diffusion flame was achieved when small amount of fuel is supplied through the center nozzle and s/d equals around 21. In the laminar region, the flame attached at the center nozzle anchored the outer lifted flames.

Effects of particulate size and frictional characteristics were examined on the melting behavior of PP(polypropylene) in a twin screw extruder. Powder and pellet types of PP were used and each component was blended with PE(polyethylene) wax and clay, respectively. It was observed that small size particulates, 1.e. powder systems exhibit accelerated melting behavior; and it was also found that the abrasive auditive acts as an effective agent for fast melting of PP powder. Retardation of melting due to the reduced friction was observed in both types of PP, contrary to the result found in a batch mixer. The tendency observed in variation of torque and exit temperature was explained in terms of frictional effect and length of compacted region formed during evolution of melting.
