  • Flow characteristics at secondary recirculation zone in a liquid fuel ramjet combustor are investigated using CFD and 3-D Stereoscopic PIV method. The combustors have two rectangular inlets that form 90 degree each other. Three guide vanes were installed in each rectangular inlet to improve the flow stability. The tested angle of the air intakes was 60 degree. The experiments were performed in the water tunnel test with the same Reynolds number in the case of Mach0.3 at inlet. Both computational and experimental results showed the secondary recirculation flow occurred at the front junction of inlet main stream and combustor chamber. The size of secondary recirculation region increased with upon closer center of axial combustor. Since the performance of combustor depends on not only the main recirculation in the dome region but also the secondary recirculation flow in a junction region, the optimal angle of the air intakes should consider the recirculation size as frame holder.

  • The flow characteristics of secondary recirculation region in a liquid fuel ramjet combustor are measured using PIV method. The model combustor has two rectangular inlets that form 90 degree angle each other. The tested angles of the air intakes were 30, 45 and 60. Three guide vanes are installed in each rectangular inlet to improve the flow stability. The experiments are performed in the water tunnel test with the same Reynolds number as the case of Mach 0.3 at the inlet. PIV software is developed to measure the characteristics of the flow field in the combustor. The accuracy of the developed PIV program is verified with rotating disk experiment and standard data. The experimental results show that the secondary recirculation flow occurred at the front junction of inlet main stream and combustorchamber. The size of secondary recirculation regions are increased with increasing air inlet angles. Since the performanceof combustor is very dependant on not only the main recirculation in the dome region but also the secondary recirculation flow in a junction region, the optimal angle of the air intakes should consider the both recirculation size as a frame holder.

  • A study on the electrical characteristic analysis of solar cell diodes under experimental conditions of varying temperature and frequency has been conducted. From the current-voltage (I-V) measurements, at the room temperature, we obtained the ideality factor (n) for Space Charge Region (SCR) and Quasi-Neutral Region (QNR) of 3.02 and 1.76, respectively. Characteristics showed that the value of n (at SCR) decreases with rising temperature and n (at QNR) increases with the same conditions. These are due to not only the sharply increased SCR current flow but the activated carrier recombination in the bulk region caused by defects such as contamination, dangling bonds. In addition, from the I-V measurements implemented to confirm the junction uniformity of cells, the average current dispersion was 40.87% and 10.59% at the region of SCR and QNR, respectively. These phenomena were caused by the pyramidal textured junction structure formed to improve the light absorption on the device's front surface, and these affect to the total diode current flow. These defect and textured junction structure will be causes that solar cell diodes have non-ideal electrical characteristics compared with general p-n junction diodes. Also, through the capacitance-voltage (C-V) measurements under the frequency of 180 kHz, we confirmed that the value of built-in potential is 0.63 V.

  • This study researched the reasons for changing polarity in accordance with junction properties in an interface of semiconductors. The contact properties of semiconductors are related to the effect of the semiconductor's device. Therefore, it is an important factor for understanding the junction characteristics in the semiconductor to increase the efficiency of devices. For generation of various junction properties, carbon-doped silicon oxide (SiOC) was deposited with various argon (Ar) gas flow rates, and the characteristics of the SiOC was varied based on the polarity in accordance with the Ar gas flows. Tin-doped zinc oxide (ZTO) as the conductor was deposited on the SiOC as an insulator to research the conductivity. The properties of the SiOC were determined from the formation of a depletion layer by the ionization reaction with various Ar gas flow rates due to the plasma energy. Schottky contact was good in the condition of the depletion layer, with a high potential barrier between the silicon (Si) wafer and the SiOC. The rate of ionization reactions increased when increasing the Ar gas flow rate, and then the potential barrier of the depletion layer was also increased owing to deficient ions from electron-hole recombination at the junction. The dielectric properties of the depletion layer changed to the properties of an insulator, which is favorable for Schottky contact. When the ZTO was deposited on the SiOC with Schottky contact, the stability of the ZTO was improved by the ionic recombination at the interface between the SiOC and the ZTO. The conductivity of ZTO/SiOC was also increased on SiOC film with ideal Schottky contact, in spite of the decreasing charge carriers. It increases the demand on the Schottky contact to improve the thin semiconductor device, and this study confirmed a high-performance device owing to Schottky contact in a low current system. Finally, the amount of current increased in the device owing to ideal Schottky contact.

  • This numerical study aims at analyzing the effect of flow characteristics, caused by geometrical features such as intersecting angles, on solute mixing at fracture junctions. It showed that not only Pe, the ratio of advection to diffusion, but also the intersecting angles played an important role in solute mixing at the junction. For the intersection angles less than 90°, the fluid flowed to the outlet in the same direction as the injected flow direction, which increased the contact at the junction with the streamlines coming from the different inlets. On the other hand, for the intersecting angles greater than 90°, the fluid flowed out to the outlet opposite to the flow direction in the inlet, leading to minimizing the contact at the junction. Therefore, in the former case, solute mixing occurred even at high Pe, and in the latter case, solutes transport along the streamlines even at low Pe. For Pe < 1, the complete mixing model was known to occur, but for the intersecting angle greater than 150°, no complete solute mixing occurred. Overall, the transition from the complete mixing model to the streamline-routing model occurred for Pe = 0.1 - 100, but it highly depended on the intersecting angles. Specifically, the transition occurred at Pe = 0.1 - 10 for intersecting angles ≧ 150° and at Pe = 10 - 100 for intersecting angles ≦ 30°. For Pe > 100, the streamline-routing model was dominant regardless of intersecting angles. For Pe > 1,000, the complete streamline-routing model appeared only for the intersecting angles greater than 150°. For the intersecting angles less than 150°, the streamline-routing model dominated over the complete solute mixing, but solute mixing still occurred at the fracture junction.

  • This paper presents an intelligent signal for controling the traffic lights on traffic junction network with dynamic traffic flow, When a junction is connected to adjacent junctions on four sides. Prior researches have been done on the single traffic junction. However, it is dificult to apply single junction controller to real traffic situation. In this paper, we develop a fuzzy taffic network controller which adjusts the extension time of current green phase by using teh fuzzy input variables such as the number of entering cars at the green light, the number of waiting cars during the red light, and the traffic volume. The proposed method was compared to the existing junction signal control methods on controllers in terms of average delay time of cars and the cost function defined in this paper.

  • To understand the local fluid dynamics for different desists of Fontan operation, five models were made out of Pyrex glass to facilitate in-vitro study. Model I, II and III have same position of the center of the anastomosis of the IVC( inferior vena cava) with that of the SVC(superior vena cava), but Model IV and V have 10 mm offset between them. Also the anastomotic junction angles are different(Model I and $IV:90^{\circ}$, Model II and $V:70^{\circ}$, Model $III:45^{\circ}$). These models were then connected to a flow loop for flow visualization study. In Model I any dominant vortex was not seen in the central region of the juntion, but a large unstable vortex was created in the Model II and III. In Model IV and V a significant stagnation region was created in the middle of the offset region. It also showed that the flow direction from the IVC and SVC to the LPA(left pulmonary artery) and RPA(right pulmonary artery) highly depends on the offset of the junction rather than the anastomotic junction angle.
