The present study has focused on numerical investigation on the flame structure, flame lift-off and stabilization in the partially premixed turbulent lifted jet flames. Since the lifted jet flames have the partially premixed nature in the flow region between nozzle exit and flame base, level set approach is applied to simulate the partially premixed turbulent lifted jet flames for various fuel jet velocities and co-flow velocities. The flame stabilization mechanism and the flame structure near flame base are presented in detail. The predicted lift-off heights are compared with the measured ones.

In the present study, the turbulent flow from an annular jet is investigated by using large eddy simulation. Particularly, the effect of the ratio of the inner and outer diameters is one of the main interests of this study. The instantaneous fields presented in this paper showed that behind the jet exit the backflow region, as well known in literatures, exists, and its detailed behavior depends on the ratio of the inner and outer diameters ($D_1/D_2$). The dependence on $D_1/D_2$ is attributed to the different shear layer development according to $D_1/D_2$. At small $D_1/D_2$, the development of the outer shear layer is similar to that from the circular jet. However, with increasing $D_1/D_2$, the interaction between the outer and inner shear layers becomes strong, resulting in fast transition to turbulence.

In this study, the confined laminar flow around a square cylinder, which ejects a either on the front face or on the rear face, is numerically simulated. In each case, three ratios of jet velocity to the fixed upstream velocity are considered. In all cases of the rear fuel jet, the high mass-fraction region is formed along the streamlines from the jet exit. In case of front jet, drag is significantly decreased when the jet velocity ratio is greater than 1. The results obtained exhibit flow and scalar-mixing characteristics encountered in a planar combustor

Burrs farmed in drilling are classified into three types, no burr, burrs with cap, teared burr. To control burr size in drilling, the second type burrs with cap are to be formed because it is small and uniform. It is necessary to understand the mechanism of cap formation to derive the burr formation into second type burr with cap. In several materials. second type burrs are formed in drilling by changing cutting conditions. It is observed that cap is formed as a result of the plastic deformation along the outside of exit hope. According to the tension behavior of the material in concentrated region between hole and drill outside edge, the geometry of burr with cap is determined. Simplified 2D FEM analysis shows good prediction for burr formation.

The behavior of a V-belt CVT was investigated both analytically and experimentally. It was found that as the torque load increased, the belt radial displacement increased in inward radial direction for the driven pulley while the radial displacement decreased slightly and increased for the driver pulley. The relative belt displacement for the driver was negligible compared with that of the driven. The experimental results were in good accordance with the theoretical results except for the inlet and exit region of the pulley. The speed ratio-torque load-axial force relationship derived from the belt behavior analysis also showed good agreement with the experiment. It is suggested that the results of this paper can be used as basic design informations of a V-belt CVT.

Heat transfer coefficients and static pressure distributions on a gas turbine vane endwall were experimentally investigated in a 5 bladed linear cascade. The Reynolds number based on an axial chord length and the cascade exit velocity was 500,000. Both heat transfer and pressure measurements on the vane endwall were made at the two different turbulence intensity levels of 6.8% and 10.8%. Detailed heat transfer coefficient distributions on the vane endwall region were measured using a hue detection based transient liquid crystals technique. Results show various regions of high and low heat transfer coefficients on the vane endwall surface due to several types of secondary flows and vortices. Heat transfer coefficient and endwall static pressure distributions showed similar trends for both turbulence intensity, however, the averaged heat transfer coefficients for higher turbulence intensity case was higher than the lower turbulence intensity case by 15%.

It has been reported that propane non-premixed interacting flames are not extinguished even in 210m/s if eight small nozzles are arranged along the imaginary circle of 40 ~ 72 times the diameter of single nozzle. 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 flame, small amount of fuel fed through the center nozzle makes the methane diffusion flame stable even at the choking conditions. In the laminar region, the flame at the center nozzle anchored the outer lifted flames.

The turbulent flow characteristics of impinging jet have been investigated by the hot wire anemometry with a movable impinging wall. Turbulences were generated by the meshed jet as well as the typical round jet and their characteristics were compared, of mean velocity profiles, turbulent intensities. Reynolds stresses, similarities and their centerline flow behaviors. The meshed jet tends to make shear layer wider than the normal one in the initial region and the velocity profiles of the normal jet is rather contractive being compared with those of the meshed one near the wall. The effect of meshed exit appears only within 4D at the begining of jets and the cascading process of the meshed one marches more rapidly than that of the normal jet. The wall effects appear in the downstream of about 0.85 H to the impinging wall for every case of wall positions in both nozzles.

A modeling of a hydraulic-gun-aerator is proposed to set up a design procedure for such devices. The aerators are used to destroy any thermal stratification that are responsible for the degradation of water qualify of lakes. The aerator produces ascending flow by using air bubbies released instantly near the bottom of the lake into a cylindrical pipe installed vertically. Differently form the diffuser-aerators, they can pull up the cold, oxygen depleted water directly to the region of the free surface, and they are believed to work effectively especially for relatively deeper lakes. Their design procedure has not been established yet though, and we propose a model focusing on the exit flow velocity at the top of the aerator through the examination of presently operating devices.
