  • In this research, we experimentally studied flow characteristic by applying PIV measuring techniques which could measure the point velocity of all flow field and measuring the unsteady velocity of surrounding disk generated in a short time. Time range of great velocity change following quick closing of the slide valve was within 0.1s and the cycle was presumed to be 0.12s as a result of comparison study between the result of point flow field and of existing pressure change. Also, surrounding disk flow inside the circular pipe was closed from the upper part and flow road was getting narrow and advanced to the lower part incidentally quickly there was a tendency that the size of the flow back velocity to the upper part immeadiately after the closure decreased to 4/120s and increased again. There was flow back velocity component in y/D=0.2 lower part by the influence of flow back to the upper part after complete closure and the vortex flow of 0.2D-size near y/D=0.7, x/D=-0.3 was observed.

  • The 2-dimensional unsteady flows on and around the cambered airfoils were computed by applying LES with the deductive dynamic SGS model. The unsteady flow field were used as inputs to compute the far-field sounds and directivity patterns from rotating blades by a hybrid approach that exploits Farassat's formula. The BEM (Boundary Element Method) was applied to predict the frequency characteristics from the rotating blades for the cases of even- and uneven-pitched fans. The BEM results suggested that the unevenly pitched fan have less pronounced discrete peaks at BEF frequencies, which was confirmed by the experiment.

  • Anti-Roll Tanks, also called Sloshing Tanks, is a rather common and sometimes an efficient method of limiting the roll angles. The important parameters, when considering using anti-roll tanks, are positioning, size, duct area, flow control device etc. Measurement by the PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry) was conducted to investigate the flow characteristics around control damper and inlet area of duct for three kind of inclined angle $(\alpha=0^*,\;10^*\;and\;20^*)$. Flow behaviors such as instantaneous and time-mean velocity vectors are investigated. Furthermore, to reveal boundaries between flowing and stagnant zones and to extract velocity profiles at any selected sections of the lower duct for passive anti-rolling tanks system.

  • This study was conducted an experiment for the thermal flow mechanism of the surrounding butane gas can and pressure change in butane can with oversized cookware. And numerical analysis was performed to analyze the process of heat transfer around butane can. Effect of radiant heat from small size cookware is very small. Thus small size cookware does not have a significant impact on the butane gas range safety. But radiant heat of oversized cookware is larger than small size cookware. Therefore it gives an adverse effect on the butane can. And when internal pressure of butane can is greater than about 406.8~447.2 kPa, a safety device of portable butane gas range were working. The causes of safety device working is because of trivet height. Trivet height is lowered, the radiant heat is increased. This radiant heat is to raise pressure of inside butane can. Experimental and numerical analysis results, the lower thermal conductivity of the cookware is greater the effects of radiant heat.

  • As the step to improve fuel efficiency, there is the system to build up the eddy of combustion chamber at the suction line in order to increase the combustion efficiency. The models installed with no vortex generation system or with various shapes of the system are examined by fluid analysis. Vortex generation system is installed prior to the suction of combustion chamber. The wing of this system winds itself around the suction air and generates the vortex. This study investigates the flow of suction air and the pressure distribution of suction stroke by using the eddy generation system.

  • To illustrate the global variation of the droplet mean diameters and the turbulent flow characteristics in counterflowing internal mixing pneumatic nozzle, the experimental measurements at five axial downstream locations(i.e., at Z=30, 50, 80, 120, and 170mm) were made using a PDPA(Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer) under the different air injection pressures ranging from 40 ㎪ to 120 ㎪. A nozzle with axi-symmetric tangential-drilled four holes at an angle of 15$^{\circ}$ has been designed and manufactured. The distributions of velocities, turbulence intensities, turbulence kinetic energy, turbulent correlation coefficients, spray angle, droplet mean diameters, volume flux, number density are quantitatively analyzed. It is possible to discern the effects of increasing air pressure. It indicates that the strong axial momentum in spite of more or less disparity between the velocity components means more reluctant to disperse radially, and that axial fluctuating velocities are substantially higher than those of radial and tangential ones, suggesting that the disintegration process is enhanced under higher air assist. The larger droplets are detected in the spray centerline at the near stations and smaller ones are generated due to further subsequent breakup at farther axial locations are attributed to the internal mixing type nozzle characteristics. Despite of the strong axial momentum, the poor atomization around the centre close to the nozzle exit is attributed to the lower rates of spherical particles which are not subject to instantaneous breakup. As it goes downstream, however, substantial increases in SMD(Sauter Mean Diameter) from the central part toward spray periphery are understandable because the droplet relative velocity is too low to bring about any subsequent disintegration.
