In this paper, thermal characteristics of a nitrous oxide ($N_2O$) catalytic reactor with packed-bed geometry are theoretically and numerically investigated. Several researchers experimentally presented that catalytic decomposition of $N_2O$ in a packed bed generates about 82kJ/mole in the exothermic reaction. Based on the results they have studied the catalytic decomposition of $N_2O$ in a packed bed to use it not only as a mono-propellant thrust for small satellites but also as an igniter system for hybrid rockets. So we aim to identify important parameters existing in an $N_2O$ packed-bed geometry, and to clarify its critical effect on thermal characteristics of the catalytic igniter using a porous medium approach.

본 연구에서는 지반의 열-수리-역학적 복합거동을 모델링하기 위한 순차적 접근법 기반의 시뮬레이터를 개발하고 적용된 연계해석 알고리즘의 계산성능을 분석하였다. 본 연구의 순차적 연계해석에서는 다공성 매질의 열 및 유체거동 분석을 위한 오픈소스 기반의 OpenGeoSys 수치코드와 역학해석을 위한 상용 소프트웨어 FLAC3D가 연동되었다. 해석해가 주어진 열-수리-역학적 복합거동 문제를 토대로 개발된 시뮬레이터에 대한 벤치마크 테스트가 수행되었다. 적용된 벤치마크 문제는 완전포화된 지반 내 점열원 작용 시 지반거동(시간에 따른 온도, 간극수압, 응력, 변형 변화)과 관계된다. 해석해와 수치해석 시뮬레이션 결과를 비교 분석하고 연계해석 시뮬레이터의 적정성을 조사하였다.

The flow pattern inside the power condenser is generally known to be very complicated due to the phase change and turbulence effects as well as the effect of condenser geometry. In the present study, the flow pattern inside the power condenser was numerically simulated with a personal computer. The widely known CHAMPION 2/E/FIX(Concentration, Heat and Momentum Program Instruction Outfit, 2D/Elliptic/Fixed grid) computer code was modified for this purpose. The flow was asssumed to be two-dimensional and steady-state, and the tube bank was considered to be homogeneous porous medium. Simple turbulent diffusion coefficients based on the appropriate experiments were obtained for the computation. Through this analytical approach, the flow pattern could be predicted fairly well. The computational results also show that the location of the air vent plays an important key role in determining the efficiency of the condenser.

In this paper, heat and mass transfer characteristics through experimental and numerical study are extensively investigated in steam reform ins reactor under given operating conditions. In order to get simulated data at outlet of the reformer, heterogeneous reactor model is incorporated. As the reaction also takes place in porous media, two medium approach is used to take into account thermally non-equilibrium phenomena between catalyst and bulk gas. In steam reforming reaction, heat transfer issue is so significant that geometrical configuration study is also conducted.

The present study conducted a numerical modeling on the diesel SCR (selective catalytic reduction) system using ammonia as a reductant over vanadium-based catalysts $(V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2)$. Transient modeling for ammonia adsorption/desorption on the catalyst surface was firstly carried out, and then the SCR reaction was modeled considering for it. In the current catalytic reaction model, we extended the pure chemical kinetic model based on laboratory-scale powdered-phase catalyst experiments to the chemico-physical one applicable to realistic commercial SCR reactors. To simulate multi-dimensional heat and mass transfer phenomena, the SCR reactor was modeled in two dimensional, axisymmetric domain using porous medium approach. Also, since diesel engines operate in transient mode, the present study employed an unsteady model. In addition, throughout simulations using the developed code, effects of space velocity on the DeNOx performance were investigated.

This study was initiated to evaluate the cooling performance of CAC (charged air cooler) and radiator in the engine room of a mini bus. So we had firstly to predict the mass flow rate coming from radiator grille and front bum per opening using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation based on 3D configuration. And simulations were carried out for different cooling module layout and bum per opening hole size on sam e vehicle operating condition. Simulation results show that CAC cooling performance at reverse protecting plate-applying model was much efficient than that of the bum per opening hole size-increasing model in IMTD point of view. Part of the CFD simulation results was com pared to with experimental data. It was confirm ed that the CFD approach using STAR-CD based on pursuing no-com promise solution could provide design engineers with useful design information in the early design stage of vehicle development.

In this work, thermal design of a PCR chip for LOC is systematically conducted. From the numerical simulation of a PCR chip based on the finite volume method, how to control the average temperature of a PCR chip and the temperature difference between the denaturation zone and the annealing zone is presented. The average temperature is shown to be controlled by adjusting heat input and a cooler as well as a heater is shown to be necessary to obtain three individual temperature zones for polymerase chain reaction. To reduce the time required, a heat sink for the cooler is not included in the calculation domain for the PCR chip and heat sink design is conducted separately by using a compact modeling method, the porous medium approach.

수치해석 기법의 강건성은 다양한 모델링 조건에서 계산 성능이 유지되는 것을 의미하며, 새로운 해석기법 또는 수치코드는 벤치마크 테스트를 통해 강건성이 평가될 필요가 있다. TOUGH-FLAC 모델링 기법은 국내외적으로 이산화탄소 지중저장, 사용후핵연료 지층처분, 지열 개발 등 다양한 분야에 적용되었으며, 실험 계측자료, 다른 수치코드들과의 결과 비교를 통해 모델링 유효성이 분석되었다. 본 연구에서는 해석해를 갖는 열-수리-역학적 복합거동 문제를 토대로 TOUGH-FLAC 기법의 벤치마크 테스트를 수행하였다. 적용된 해석해는 완전히 포화된 지반에 점열원 작용 시 주변매질의 온도, 간극수압, 역학적 거동과 관계되며, 해석해와 수치모사 결과를 비교하여 TOUGH-FLAC 기법의 강건성이 평가되었다. 또한, 열-수리-역학 해석의 연계항, 유체 상변화, 시간증분이 복합거동 계산에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다.

The present paper is devoted to investigate dynamic effect and steady-state performance of methane autothermal reformer theoretically and numerically. In order to simplify the complicated phenomena in the system, axisymmetric heterogeneous reactor model is developed. As autothermal reaction takes places on catalyst surface between bulk gas and catalyst, volume averaging method is incorporated using porous medium approach. To understand the start-up process which occurs in the reactor is highly important. Therefore, in this paper we get various goverining equations to find out transient and steady solutions and time scale for start-up introducing dimensionless variables. Start-up is a significant issue in reforming reaction for automobile system and fueling of SOFC-based auxiliary power units. This paper deals with characteristics of heat and mass transfer and predicted light-off time in the reformer as oxygen to carbon ratio ($O_2$/C) and amount of feeding gas.
