In order to investigate the variation on a heat transfer coefficient during evaporation of $CO_2$, basic experiment on the evaporation heat transfer characteristics in a horizontal micro-channel tube was performed. Hydraulic diameters of micro-channels were 0.68 and 1.46 mm. The experiment apparatus consisted of a test section, a DC power supply, a heater, a chiller, a mass flow meter, a pump and a measurement system. Experiments were conducted for various mass fluxes of 300 to 800 kg/$m^2s$, heat fluxes of 10 to 40 kW/$m^2$ and saturation temperatures of -5 to 5$^{\circ}C$. With the increase heat flux, the evaporation heat transfer coefficient increased. And the significantly change of the heat transfer coefficient was observed at any heat flux and mass flux. As the saturation temperature increased and the hydraulic diameter decreased, the heat transfer coefficient increased.

A simplified simulation model is designed to investigate the vacuum-driven bonding of glass panels in the cell process for LCD manufacturing. The bonding process is modelled by the transient flow of a weakly-compressible fluid in a very thin channel between two horizontal glass panels. An order of magnitude scaling analysis is conducted based on the characteristic feature of the channel of which height is much smaller than the horizontal length scales. It is revealed that the flow in the channel is represented by a Poiseuille flow of a compressible fluid. A finite volume model has been constructed to acquire the numerical solution to the derived simplified equations. For a simple test problem of pressure-driven microchannel flow, an assessment is made of the accuracy and validity of the proposed model. The basic aspects of vacuum-driven bonding are examined numerically, and the applicability of the present simulation model is illustrated.

Petrov-Galerkin finite element model for analyzing dynamic wave equation is applied to gradually and rapidly varied unsteady flow. The model in verified by applying to hydraulic jump, nonlinear disturbance propagation in frictionless horizontal channel and dam-break analysis. It shows stable and accurate results compared with analytical solutions for various cases. The model in applied to a surge propagation in a frictionless horizontal channel. Three-dimensional water surface profiles show that the computed result converges to the analytical one with sharp discontinuity. The model is also applied to the Taehaw River to analyze unsteady floodwave propagation. The computed results have good agreements with those of DWOPER model in terms of discharge and stage hydrographs.

The interfacial shear stress is experimentally investigated for co-current air-water stratified flow in inclined rectangular channels having a length of 1854mm, width of 120mm and height of 40mm at almost atmospheric pressure. Experiments are carried out in several inclinations from $0^{\circ}\;up\;to\;10^{\circ}$. The local film thickness and the wave height are measured at three locations, i.e., L/H = 8,23, and 40. According to the inclination angle, the experimental data are categorized into two groups; nearly horizontal data group ($0^{\circ}\;{\leq}\;{\theta}\;{\leq}\;0.7^{\circ}$), and inclined channel data group ($0.7^{\circ}\;{\leq}\;{\theta}\;{\leq}\;10^{\circ}$). Experimental observations for nearly horizontal data group show that the flow is not fully developed due to the water level gradient and the hydraulic jump within the channel. For the inclined channel data group, a dimensionless wave height, $\Delta$h/h, is empirically correlated in terms of $Re_{G}$ and h/H. A modified root-mean-square wave height is proposed to consider the effects of the interfacial and wave propagation velocities. It is found that an equivalent roughness has a linear relationship with the modified root-mean-square wave height and its relationship is independent of the inclination.

Dark channel prior means that, for undistorted outdoor images, at least one color channel of a pixel or its neighbors have values close to 0, and thus the prior can be used to estimate the amount of distortion for given distorted images. In other words, if an image is distorted by blur, its dark channel values are averaged with neighbor pixel values and thus increase. This paper proposes a method that estimates blur strengths by analyzing the variation of dark channel values caused by blur. Through experiments with images distorted by Gaussian and horizontal motion blur with given strengths, the usefulness of the proposed method is verified.

A ghost cancelling method using the multiplicationless adaptive multipath channel identification is proposed. The IIR filter and the LMS algorithm are used for ghost cancelling. The coefficients of IIR filter are obtained by multipath channel identification. The LMS algorithm which is simple relatively is used as the adaptive algorithm. An MPS is selected as the reference signal and it is used as the input of the adaptive algorithm for the multipath channel identification. If an MPS is not exist, the horizontal syne, and color burst signal can be used as the reference signal. Improving of accuracy of the ghost cancelling in the presence of the phase variation in the multipath channel, a complex processing are also performed.

The two-fluid equations are widely used to simulate two-phase flows in a nuclear reactor. For the two-fluid momentum equation, the wall and interfacial drag terms play an important role in predicting a two-phase flow behavior. Since the bubble density is much smaller than the water density, the bubble accelerates faster than the liquid in a nozzle. As a result, the bubble phase becomes faster than the liquid phase in the nozzle. In contrast, the opposite phenomena occur in the diffuser. The purpose of our study is to experimentally show these behaviors in an area-varying channel such as nozzle and diffuser. Experiments were made of turbulent bubbly flows in an area-varying horizontal channel. The velocities of the bubble and liquid phases were measured by the PIV technique. It was shown that the two-phase velocities were no longer close to each other in the area-varying regions. The bubble was faster than the liquid in the nozzle; in contrast, the bubble was slower than the liquid in the diffuser. Code simulations were also performed using the MARS code. By replacing the original wall drag model in the MARS code with Kim (1)'s wall drag partition model, we obtained the simulation results being consistent with experimental observations.

The seawater exchange breakwater equipped with an oscillating water channel and water transmitting pipes has a very spectacular function that seawater supply can be greatly increased due to the upsurge of the water surface inside the channel at resonance condition which can be reached when the incident wave period becomes close to the natural period of the channel. The variations of the water level and period inside the channel are very important factors in enhancing the efficiency of sea water exchange, especially when designing the breakwater cross-section in shallow water zone which requires longer resonance period with the elongated horizontal projection of the channel. In the present study, a hydraulic experiment was performed varying the length of the oscillating channel, and the resonance periods and water surface variations are analyzed in terms of water transmission through the pipes.
