This paper investigated the new calibration algorithm of a straight-type five-hole pressure probe for measuring three-dimensional flow velocity components. This new calibration algorithm was used for velocity data reduction from the calibration map and based on the combination of a look-up, a binary search algorithm and a geometry transformation including the translation and reflection of nodes in a calibration map. The calibration map was expanded up to the application angle, ${\pm}55^{\circ}$ of a probe. This velocity data reduction method showed a perfect performance without any kind of interpolating errors in calculating yaw and pitch angles from the calibration map. Moreover, when it was applied to an actual flow field including a swirling flow, a good result came out on the whole.

The effects of hole expansion angle and the arrangement of nozzles on a film cooling system for a turbine-blade-shaped surface were experimentally investigated. Liquid crystal with flue-temperature correlation and an image processing system were employed to evaluate surface temperature. Distributions of cooling effectiveness were then presented to figure out the change of heat transfer characteristics with different geometric conditions of cooling-holes. It was found thats the averaged cooling efficiency on the suction surface was maximum with 10 degree of the cooling hole expansion angle. It was also shown that the averaged cooling efficiency on the pressure surface and the averaged cooling efficiency for dual array case were not affected by the hole expansion angle.

Pintle injector is the most suitable injector for thrust control because it can control the area of propellant injection. Accordingly, the combustion test of multiple hole pintle injector and continuous type pintle injector was carried out in this paper using liquid oxygen and gas methane. The combustion performance of the two pintles was verified with the characteristic speed efficiency, and the experimental results were compared according to the O/F and combustion chamber pressure and under similar conditions. The efficiency of the multi hole pintle was generally somewhat higher than continuous pintle when pintle opening distance(the area of dispensing oxidizer) was in a 100% thrust condition.

A damper floating ring seal with round hole pattern surfaces is suggested for better leakage control. The flat plate test of the round hole pattern surfaces has been performed to yield an empirical friction factor model. The exact predictions of the lock­up position of the damper floating ring, the leakage performance, and the rotordynamic coefficients of the seal are necessary to evaluate the rotordynamic performance of the turbo pump unit. The governing equations including the empirical friction factor model for round hole pattern surfaces are solved by the Fast Fourier Transform method. The lock­up position, leakage flow rate, and rotordynamic coefficients are evaluated according to the geometric parameters of the damper floating ring seal. Theoretical results show that the damper floating ring seals yield less leakage and better rotordynamic stability than the floating ring seal with a smooth surface.

Deformation surrounding the hole in the tube during the hydropiercing process has been investigated in this study. The tube is expanded and internally pressurized between upper and lower dies, and a piercing punch is driven forcefully through a cross passage in the die and through the wall of the tube. The pressurized fluid within the tube provides support to the wall of the tube during a piercing step to form a hole in the tube having less deformation surrounding the hole in the tube. The deformation area may be fully retracted to a substantially flat form or partially retracted to a countersunk form. In this study, a mathematical model that can predict deformation surrounding the hole has been proposed and experimentally verified by actual hydropiercing test.

A mathematical methodology is proposed for designing nozzle hole shapes producing controlled geometric cavitation. The proposed methodology uses an unstructured RANS flow solver, with the ability to compute sensitivity derivatives via an adjoint algorithm. The adjoint formulation for the N-S equations is presented while variation of the turbulence viscosity is not taken into account during the geometry modifications. The sensitivities are calculated in a mode independently of the shape parameterisation. The method is used to develop and evaluate conceptual shapes for nozzle hole cavitation reduction. The localized region at the hole inlet producing cavitation, is parameterised using its radius of curvature, while a cost function is formulated to eliminate the negative pressures present at this location. Sensitivity derivatives are used to assess the dependence of the localized region on the minimum pressure, and to drive the geometry to the targeted shape. The results show that the computer model can provide nozzle hole entry shapes that produce predefined flow characteristics, and thus can be used as an inverse design tool for nozzle hole cavitation control.

There are several types of compressors which are appropriate for hydrogen gas station. Diaphragm type of compressor is the one of them and it satisfies the requirements for that purpose in terms of maintaining gas purity and making high pressure over 700 bar. The objective of this study is to find an optimal design of oil distribution hole configuration. The number of holes is changed maintaining total cross-sectional area of holes. Five cases(1 hole, 4, 8,16 and 24 holes) were studied through Fluid Structure Interaction(FSI) analysis method. Gas and oil pressure, the deflection and stress of the diaphragm were analysed during compression and suction process respectively. There is no specific difference among the cases during compression. An additional deflection due to the existence of hole was found during suction for all case. But the highest deflection and stress were found in the 1 hole case. It was seen that 60% decrease of stress in magnitude in 24 hole case compare to the 1 hole case.

Field measurements have revealed that the pressure drop over a borehole during drilling of a slim oil well or a well with a long reach can depend significantly on the rotation speed of the drill pipe. An accurate prediction of the annular frictional pressure drop is therefore important for conditions where the annular clearance is small. An experimental study was carried out to study solid-liquid two phase flow in a slim hole annulus. Annular velocities of carrier fluids varied from 0.2 m/s to 1.5 m/s. The carrier fluids which were utilized included tap water and CMC water solutions. Pressure drops and average flow rates were measured for the parameters such as inner-pipe rotary speed, carrier fluid velocity, hole inclination and particle injection rate. For both water and CMC solutions, the higher the concentration of the solid particles is, the larger the pressure gradients become.

In order to find out the optimum size of nozzle of the power sprayer in the paddy field, four different sized hole of nozzles were tested on its discharge volume per unit time and its effective covering distance. 1. The discharge rate of each nozzle is proportional to square root of the transmitted internal pressure of liquid, and the discharge coefficient ranges from 0.82 to 0.86 at the pressure of 20 to 30 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. 2. The effective covering distance is increased as the size of the hole is larded and also the pressure is increased under under the limited pressure. Generally, the effective covering distance is not greatly increased at the pressure of above 25kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. The distance from the nozzle to the spot where the largest amount of droplets are dropped is about 14.5m for 3.05mm nozzle and 16m for 4.05mm nozzle in the pressure range from 20 to 25kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. 3. From the above results it is concluded that the 3mm nozzle with the power sprayers, which are now being supplied to the farmers, can be used for disease and insect control on the paddy field of which block size is 30m${\times}$100m, and operators need not to enter the field for spraying. For the 40m${\times}$100m block, 4mm nozzle should be used with large size of pump which discharge capacity is 60l/min or more.

Air deck charge blasting method which has been generally used in a surface mine and large scale developing site is one of the improved techniques with blasting effectiveness. Many studies and experiments have been tried to investigate the characteristics of pressure distribution in a blasting hole and increase the effectiveness of air deck charge blasting method. In this study, changes of pressure occurred in sections of air deck installed in various ways was computed and also changes of pressure with the location and length of air deck was analyzed, using numerical analysis program. Basically, all the numerical analysis was 2-Dimensional analysis and equation of status of explosives was JWL-EOS. Only to evaluate the variations of pressure in blast hole, it was assumed that rock mass is homogeneous but rock mass has different density and intensity.
