The analysis of propellant feeding sub-system is performed using a commercial code SINDA/FLUINT, the comprehensive finite-difference, one-dimensional, lumped parameter tool. With the code, cryogenic helium supply system, liquid oxygen supply system, helium injection cooling system are evaluated. The code gave satisfactory estimation scheme for propulsion system characterized by cryogenic temperature and high pressure, two phase flow. This paper focuses on presenting calculation scheme of propulsion sub-system using one-dimensional code like SINDA/FLUINT.

Numerical analysis is conducted to design the high temperature heat exchanger of Stirling engine by using the commercial CFD solver FLUENT. The fin-tube type of heat exchanger numerical calculation is conducted by changing the shape, number and material of fin shape of working fluid channel, etc in three-dimensional combustion field. Adjusted one-way constant velocity is used as the representative velocity of oscillating flow. The optimum design of heat exchanger considering the heat trasfer capability is suggested by using the calculation results.

Spray impingement and fuel film formation models with cavitation have been developed and incorporated into the computational fluid dynamics code, STAR-CD. The spray/wall interaction process was modeled by considering the effects of surface temperature conditions and fuel film formation. The behavior of fuel droplets after impingement was divided into rebound, spread and splash using the Weber number and parameter K(equation omitted). The spray impingement model accounts for mass conservation, energy conservation, and heat transfer to the impinging droplets. The fuel film formation model was developed by integrating the continuity, momentum, and energy equations along the direction of fuel film thickness. Zero dimensional cavitation model was adopted in order to consider the cavitation phenomena and to give reasonable initial conditions for spray injection. Numerical simulations of spray tip penetration, spray impingement patterns, and the mass of film-state fuel matched well with the experimental data. The spray impingement and fuel film formation models have been applied to study spray/wall impingement in high-speed direct injection diesel engines.

Thermofluid flow analysis is major subject in most computational fluid dynamics applications. Accompanying convective and conductive heat transport phenomena, radiation plays an important role in high temperature operating systems. Cares in which the radiation dominates are found in such systems as boilers, furnaces, rocket engines, etc. In this paper the finite-volume method (FVM) are employed to simulate two-dimensional radiation problems in concentric and eccentric horizontal cylindrical annuli with general body-fitted coordinates. In that case the simplest and intuitive remedies are proposed for mitigation of ray effect.

The behavior of the work materials in the chip-tool interface in extremely high strain rates and temperatures is more that of viscous liquids than that of normal solid metals. In these circumstances the principles of fluid mechanics can be invoked to describe the metal flow in the neighborhood of the cutting edge. In the present paper an Eulerian finite element model is presented that simulates metal flow in the vicinity of the cutting edge when machining a low carbon steel with carbide cutting tool. The work material is assumed to obey visco-plastic (Bingham solid) constitutive law and Von Mises criterion. Heat generation is included in the model, assuming adiabatic conditions within each element. the mechanical and thermal properties of the work material are accepted to vary with the temperature. The model is based on the virtual work-stream function formulation, emphasis is given on analyzing the formation of the stagnant metal zone ahead of the cutting edge. The model predicts flow field characteristics such as material velocity effective stress and strain-rate distributions as well as built-up layer configuration

A side by side refrigerator is popularly used one among electric home appliances according to the rise of the customer's living standard. But the frost problem in freezing compartment comes out whenever we develop the high quality refrigerator. In this research, internal flow simulation and temperature measurement were carried out by using CFD and T-type thermocouple respectively in order to understand freezing mechanism. It was revealed that the amount of frost beneath the 1st and 2nd shelves is approximately 40% of total frost and the cause of frost generation is due to bad circulation of low speed cold flow. Using this analysis, the shapes of outlets under shelves are modified. So, the amount of frost in this modified model decreases 6% comparing to original one.

In-situ photopolymerization of alkyl acrylate monomers in the presence of a nematic fluid provides a cellular matrix of liquid crystalline droplets in which the chemical structure of the encapsulating polymer exerts control over the alignment (anchoring) of the liquid crystalline molecules. Control is obtained by variation of the alkyl side chains and through copolymerization of two dissimilar monofunctional acrylates. Two monofunctional acrylates with opposing tendencies on copolymerization provide control over the tunability of anchoring over a wide temperature range. Using various acrylates we show that a uniform vertical alignment can be achieved over a large area. Utilizing this technique and a nematic with negative dielectric anisotropy, we have fabricated highly flexible liquid crytal based devices, with high contrast and fast response time, without using any alignment layer.

Laminar natural convection heat transfer from a horizontal heat exchanger tube with one infinitely long vertical plate fin has been studied by a finite-difference numerical procedure. In predicting convective heat transfer from a circular tube, the thermal boundary condition at solid fluid interface is usually assumed to be isothermal. However, in reality, the thermal boundary condition is not isothermal, and the tube has the thickness and the conductivity. So the temperature at the interface is not known a priori to the calculation. This problem has the conjugate phenomena which occur between the tube conduction and external natural convection, and between the fin conduction and external natural convection. Numerical results are obtained to determine the effects of the conductivity of solid wall and the thickness of tube wall on heat transfer. It is found that the conduction causes significant influence on the natural convection heat transfer at low K and high ${\delta}$.

The purpose of this study is to improve heat transfer by attaching rectangular fins to tube. Experiments were carried out under the following conditions - Aspect ratio$(W_f/R_f)$ is 0.7, 1.2 and 1.8. Temperature conversion between high and low positions of water in the thermal storage appeared because maximum density point of water is about $4^{\circ}C$ and inlet direction of working fluid influenced conductive heat transfer Compared with the unfinned tube(bare tube), the rectangular tube increased the ice thermal storage energy and the ice thermal storage energy was increased as aspect ratio was increased.

The annular induction electromagnetic pump with maximum flowrate of $60{\ell}/min$ for the sodium coolant system of liquid metal fast breeder reacters has been designed using the equivalent circuit method. The final optimum values of geometrical and electromagnetic parameters were obtained for an annular induction pump from the relation of the electrical variables giving the developing force to the fluid and the pressure drops between both sides of the pump. The physical properties of the core, coil condoctor materials in the high temperature and pump cooling systems under operation have been taken into account in the design of the pump. The structural material were also selected considering the reaction with sodium and the magnetic field distortion.
