The distributions of mass flow rate and pressure are major factors to deside the performance of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). These factors are affected by channel configuration of air plate. In this paper. structural analysis is performed to investigate deformation of porous media. Two kind of models are suggest for flow analyses. Deformed porous media and undeformed porous media are considered for air plate model. The Numerical flow analysis results with deformed porous media and undeformed porous media had some discrepancy in pressure distribution. The pressure and velocity in a working condition are numerically calculated to predict the performance of the air plates. Distributions of the parameters in the PEMFC are analyzed numerically under steady-state conditions.

In this study, flow in a porous medium is analyzed using a computer-extended perturbation series solution. The flow is modelled as a creeping flow in a periodically constricted channel. The channel walls have a sinusoidally varying width and the flow is analyzed in terms of its vorticity and stream functions in the Stokes flow regime. The perturbation series in terms of a small parameter, average width to length ratio, is extended with a computer resulting in purely asymptotic series and Pade summation is used to obtain final results. Resulting flow shows flow separations in the widening section and immobile zones in the widest section of the flow regime with reattachment in the narrowing section. Analysis of the flow separation phenomena resulted in a correlation between the two geometric parameters of the channel walls to predict the onset of flow separation in the Stokes flow regime.

In this paper, structural analysis is performed to investigate the deformation of porous media in a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). Structural deformation of air plate of the fuel cell causes the change in configuration and cross sectional area of the channel. The distributions of mass flow rate and pressure are major factors to decide the performance of a PEMFC. These factors are affected by channel configuration of air plate. Two kinds of numerical air plate models are suggested for flow analyses. Deformed porous media and undeformed porous media are considered for the two models. The Numerical flow analysis results between deformed porous media and undeformed porous media have some discrepancy in pressure distribution. The pressure and velocity distribution under a working condition are numerically calculated to predict the performance of the air plates. Pressure and velocity distributions are compared for two models. It is shown that structural deformation makes difference in flow analysis results.

본 연구는 다양한 기하학적 특성을 갖는 다공성 매질의 투과도를 유동조건의 변화와 상관없이 적절히 해석할 수 있는 일반화된 투과도 관계식을 도출하고자 시작되었다. 이에 우선, Darcy-Weisbach 관계식 (Darcy's 마찰유동관계식)의 다공질 유동에의 적용방안을 검토하였다. 결과적으로, Kozeny와 Carman 등의 선행연구를 바탕으로, Darcy-Weisbach 관계식은 다공질 유동해석에 적용이 가능하도록 확장되었다. 또한, 이는 모세관 유동모델을 바탕으로 마찰등가투과도(FEP)로 다시 정의되었다. 이때, 도출된 관계식의 유효성은 Kozeny-Carman 방정식과의 비교를 통해 검증되었고, 제시된 FEP 관계식이 Kozeny-Carman 방정식의 일반화된 형태임도 확인하였다. 결론적으로, 본 연구에서는 Darcy-Weisbach 관계식을 다공질 유동해석에 적용할 수 있도록 적절히 확장하고, 새로운 투과도 산정을 위한 FEP 관계식을 제시하였다.

The homotopy analysis method (HAM) has been applied to develop an analytic solution for the coupled radiation-convection dissipative non-gray gas flow in a non-Darcy porous medium. Results are presented for the surface shear and temperature profiles are presented to illustrate the effect of various parameters appearing in the analytical formulation. The accuracy and convergence of the method is also discussed.

수직으로 위치한 다공성의 방풍벽을 통과해 흐르는 공기의 난류 유동특성을 해석하였다. 방풍벽은 다수의 원형 단면으로 구성된 공극으로 구성하고, 다공도는 공극의 직경으로 조절하였다. 대부분의 결과는 FLUENT를 이용한 해석결과로 3차원 다공벽 주위의 유동특성을 제시하였으며, 방풍벽에 형성되는 압력분포를 통해 방풍벽의 항력계수를 제시하였다. 항력계수는 레이놀즈 수 및 다공도에 의해 정의되나 레이놀즈 수의 영향은 크지 않은 반면에 다공도에 대한 영향은 매우 크다. 3차원 공극을 갖는 방풍벽의 항력계수를 다공도의 함수로 제시하여 2차원 결과와 비교하였다.

In the present study, the characteristic of flow distribution in the channel of a plate heat exchanger is investigated numerically. In order to accomplish the efficient and fast analyses of the flow characteristics in the channel, a semi-microscopic analysis has been performed using a porous media model. For semi-microscopic analysis using porous media, the flow resistance coefficients are obtained through the result of pressure drop in the experimental data. The results showed that the variation of mass flow rate, geometry and chevron angle strongly depend on the flow distribution in the channel. Particularly, the chevron angle is most important factor for uniform flow distribution.

The present work deals with the theoretical prediction of static & dynamic characteristic of annular type externally pressurized thrust air bearings with metal-sintered porous media. For the evaluation of surface loading effect by machining, it is assumed that the flow at the porous surface is dominant and which is equivalent to the flow through orifice. Finite different method with over-relaxation method is used to solve the numerical problems. The influences of radius ratio, supply pressure and squeeze number on performances are investigated, as the results. The results of this study can be used to predict the optimal running condition and stable realm of porous bearings.

The modeling for turbulent flow through a porous media has not been confirmed because of a undetermined constant which appears in the governing equations. In present study, the turbulent porous modeling based on the local thermal equilibrium has been extended to the turbulent clear flow. A undetermined constant is also suggested by microscopic analysis. The microscopic analysis is performed in the flat tube with micro-channels, and it confirms that the undetermined constant is 0.99. It is shown that the results of the macroscopic analysis using confirmed constant agree well with those of the microscopic analysis with a maximum error of 3.5%.
