Recent progress in the computational fluid dynamics methods of two- and multiphase phase flows has already started opening up new exciting possibilities for using complete multidimensional models to simulate boiling systems. Combining this new theoretical and computational approach with novel experimental methods should dramatically improve both our understanding of the physics of boiling and the predictive capabilities of models at various scale levels. However, for the multidimensional modeling framework to become an effective predictive tool, it must be complemented with accurate mechanistic closure laws of local boiling mechanisms. Boiling heat transfer has been studied quite extensively before. However, it turns out that the prevailing approach to the analysis of experimental data for both pool boiling and forced-convection boiling has been associated with formulating correlations which normally included several adjustable coefficients rather than based on first principle models of the underlying physical phenomena. One reason for this has been the tendency (driven by practical applications and industrial needs) to formulate single expressions which encompass a broad range of conditions and fluids. This, in turn, makes it difficult to identify various specific factors which can be independently modeled for different situations. The objective of this paper is to present a mechanistic modeling concept for both pool boiling and forced-convection boiling. The proposed approach is based on theoretical first-principle concepts, and uses a minimal number of coefficients which require calibration against experimental data. The proposed models have been validated against experimental data for water and parametrically tested. Model predictions are shown for a broad range of conditions.

This work discusses the numerical analysis, the design and experimental test of the SMA actuator along with its capabilities and limitations. Convective heating and cooling using water actuate the SMA(Shape memory alloy) element of the actuator. The fuel such as propane, having a high energy density, is used as the energy source for the SMA actuator in order to increase power and energy density of the system, and thus in order to obviate the need for electrical power supplies such as batteries. The system is composed of a pump, valves, bellows, a heater(burner), control unit and a displacement amplification device. The experimental test of the SMA actuator system results in 150 MPa stress(force : 1560 N) with $3\%$ strain and 0.5 Hz. actuation frequency. The actuation frequency is compared with the prediction obtained from numerical analysis. For the designed SMA actuator system, the results of numerical analysis were utilized in determining design parameters and operating conditions.

Adiabatic demagnetization refrigerator (ADR) for hydrogen re-liquefaction operating between 24 K and 20 K has been designed. $Dy_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}Ni_2$, whose Curie temperature is 24 K, is selected as a magnetic refrigerant. The magnetic refrigerant powder is sintered with oxygen-free high purity copper (OFHC) powder to enhance its effective thermal conductivity as well as to achieve relatively high frequency. A perforated plate heat exchanger (PPHE) operated with forced convection is utilized as a heat switch. The forced convection heat switch is expected to have fast response relative to a conventional gas-gap heat switch. A conduction-cooled high Tc superconducting (HTS) magnet is employed to apply external magnetic field variation on a magnetic refrigerant. $2^{nd}$ generation GdBCO coated conductor HTS tape with Kapton$^{(R)}$ insulation (SUNAM Inc.) will be utilized for the HTS magnet. The magnetization and demagnetization processes are to be achieved by the AC operation of the HTS magnet. The designed magnetic field and target ramp rate of the HTS magnet are over 4 T with 180 A and 0.4 T/s, respectively. AC loss distribution on HTS magnet is theoretically estimated.

This research presented the heat resistance characteristics of heat sink which is newly designed through the experiment. For the same volume and base plate of heat sinks, the experiment of heat transfer characteristics was conducted for forced convection of layered type heat sink. The heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics of the layered type heat sink were compared for the various kinds of fin pitches, fin heights and heights of heat sink. The results show that thermal resistance is decreased as the height of heat sink increases and the fin height and fin pitch decrease, From the experimental data of layered type heat sink, the correlation equation of Nusselt number was obtained as follows ; $$Nu=0.845{\cdot}Re^{0.393}{\cdot}(\frac{f_h}{D_h})^{0.160}{\cdot}(\frac{f_p}{D_h})^{0.372}{\cdot}(\frac{H_{hs}}{D_h})^{-0.942}$$

이중냉각 환형핵연료 집합체를 위한 비틀림 혼합날개 지지격자의 강제대류열전달 성능을 실험적으로 평가하였다. 비틀림 혼합날개 지지격자는 부수로 간 혼합뿐 아니라 부수로 내 혼합을 동시에 증대시킬 수 있도록 설계되었다. 실험을 위한 이중냉각 환형핵연료 모의 집합체로, 봉 중심 간 거리와 봉 외경의 비가 1.08인 봉 간격이 좁은 $4{\times}4$ 정사각 배열의 봉다발을 준비하였다. 실험은 봉다발 유동의 축방향 평균속도가 1.5 m/s, 열유속은 $26kW/m^2$인 조건에서 수행하였다. 원주방향 온도 분포의 경우, 지지격자 상류에서는 부수로 중심 벽면에서, 하류에서는 비틀림 혼합날개 끝이 향하는 벽면에서 온도가 가장 낮게 나타났다. 축방향 온도 분포의 경우, 지지격자 하류 근처에서 온도가 급격하게 감소하는 것으로 측정되었고, 비틀림 혼합날개에 의해 누셀트 수는 최대 56 % 증대되는 것으로 나타났다. 본 실험결과를 토대로 봉 간격이 좁은 이중냉각 환형핵연료 집합체에서 비틀림 혼합날개 지지격자에 의해 강제대류열 전달 성능이 효과적으로 증대될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

A simplified model for the so-called ACRT(accelerated crucible rotation technique) Bridgman crystal growth was considered in order to investigate the principal effects of the periodic variation of angular velocity. Numerical solutions were obtained for Ro=0.5, Ra=4.236*10$_{6}$ and E=2.176*10$^{-3}$ . The effects of spin-up process combined with natural convection was investigated as a preliminary study. The spin-up time scale for the present problem was a little larger than that observed for homogeneous spin-up problems. Numerical results reveal that over a time scale of (H$^{2}$/.nu..omega.$_{f}$)$^{1}$2/ the forced convection due to the formation of Ekman layer predominates. When the state of rigid body rotation is attained, natural convection due to buoyancy emerges as the main driving force and them the steady-state is approached asymptotically. Based on our preliminary results with simple spin-up, several fundamental features associated with variation of rotation speed are successfully identified. When a periodic variation of angular velocity was imposed, the system response was also periodic. Due to effect of mixing, the heat transfer was enlarged. From the analysis of time-averaged Nusselt number along the bottom surface the effect of a periodic variation of angular velocity on the interface location could be indirectly identified.d.

TMixed convective flow in a bottom heated and top cooled rectangular channel can be significantly affected by the channel aspect ratio, Prandtl number, Reynolds number, Rayleigh number and angle of inclination. In such a mixed convection, the flow pattern plays an important role in various technological processes. In this study, a numerical investigation is carried out to explore mixed convection in a three-dimensional rectangular channel with bottom heated and top cooled uniformly. The three-dimensional governing equations are discretized using the finite volume method. In the range of low Reynolds number($0{\leq}Re{\leq}9.6{\times}10^{-2}$), the effects of the aspect ratio($2{\leq}AR{\leq}12$) and Gr/Re are presented and discussed. The longitudinal roll number in the channel is increased with increasing aspect ratio, and the roll number induced, regardless of the aspect ratio number, is even in the range of aspect ratios between 2 and 12, New vortex flow structure containing inclined longitudinal rolls is found, which is affected by aspect ratio and Reynolds number. The ratio Gr/Re is used to check the relative magnitudes of forced and natural convection in the mixed convective flow of high viscous fluid.

본 연구에서는 기존에 알려진 수직 원형관내 혼합대류 유동영역지도에 대하여 원 문헌의 분석과 재구성을 통해 지도의 유효성 검토를 수행하였다. 지도를 구성하는 원 문헌을 수집하여 내용을 정리하였고 조사한 데이터와 대류열전달 상관식을 활용하여 독립적으로 지도를 재구성하고 기존의 지도와 비교하였다. 재구성한 지도에는 혼합대류 영역이 곡선이 아니라 직선으로 나타났으며 천이영역을 나타내는 것은 재현되지 않았다. 일부 데이터만 포함된 기존의 지도와 달리 재구성 지도에는 상당히 많은 양의 데이터가 포함됐다. 기존의 유동영역지도는 활용된 데이터가 선택적으로 사용되었고, 혼합대류와 천이영역을 나타내는 실선 대해 언급되지 않았으며 불확실도 분석을 통한 정보를 제공하지 않았기 때문에 신뢰할 수 없다고 판단된다. Metais와 Eckert의 연구 이후, 혼합대류에 관한 많은 연구가 수행되었으나 대류의 유동영역을 구분하는 방법으로 기존의 지도가 지금까지 활용되고 있다.

An analytical study is made of transient adjustment process of an initially stationary, stably-stratified fluid in a square. The boundary walls are highly-conducting. The overall Rayleigh number $R_a$ is large. Considerations are given to both opposing (${\delta}w/{\delta}T>0$) and cooperating (${\delta}w/{\delta}T<0$) configurations. The flow character in opposing configuration can be classified into (a) a forced-convection dominaut mode (${\delta}w/{\delta}T>1/\sqrt{2}$), (b) a buoyancy-convection dominant mode ($0<{\delta}w/{\delta}T<1/\sqrt{2}$), and (c) a static mode (${\delta}w/{\delta}T{\cong}1/\sqrt{2}$). Global evolutionary processes are depicted. and physical rationalizations are provided.

실린더로 부터 Prandtl수가 0.7인 주변공기로 전달되는 혼합대류 열전달현상이 Stream-Vorticitv 함수로 표시된 지배방정식으로 부터 유한차분법에 의해 분석되어졌다. Reynolds수와 Grashof수의 함수로서 혼합대류 열전달에서 Nusselt수의 값들이 조사되어 졌으며 이들로부터 순수자연대류와 혼합대류, 혼합대류와 순수강제대류사이의 범위를 정하였다. 그 외에도 본 연구에서는 실린더주변의 온도분포와, 공기속도분포, 속도분리점(Separation point), 마찰계수, 압력분포등이 조사되어졌으나 제 1편에서는 Nusselt수와 온도분포만이 연구결과로 주어 졌으며, 본시험의 이론적 결과치들은 발표된 실험치들과 잘 일치하였다.
