This paper handled an investigation on the turbulent flow characteristics of three-dimensional small-size axial fan(SSAF) according to operating loads. Also, it was carried out by unsteady-state, incompressible and three-dimensional large eddy simulation(LES). The downstream flow type of SSAF is changed from axial flow to radial flow around the beginning of stall region at the aerodynamic performance curve. Axial mean velocity component largely grows around blade tip at the operating point of A to D, but transverse and vertical mean velocity components as well as Reynolds shear stresses highly develop around blade tip at the operating point of E to H. On the other hand, the peak value of turbulent kinetic energy developed around blade tip shows the highest at the operating point of E.

Numerical simulation of viscous compressible flow in turbomachinery cascade involves many problems due to the complex geometry of blade but also flow phenomena. In the present study, numerical investigations have been performed to examine the three-dimensional flow characteristics inside the transonic linear turbine cascades using a commercial code, FLUENT. Multi-block H-type grids are applied to the high-turning turbine rotor blades and comparisons with the experimental data and the numerical results have been done. In addition, the effects of turbulence models on the prediction of the endwall flows are analyzed in the sense of the flow compressibility.

An axial-type fan which operates at the relative total pressure of 671Pa and static pressure of 560Pa with the flow rate of $416.6m^3/min$ is developed with an optimization technique based on the gradient method. Prior to the optimization of fan blade, a three-dimensional axial-type fan blade is designed based on the free-vortex method along the radial direction. Twelve design variables are applied to the optimization of the rotor blade, and one design variable is selected for optimizing a stator which is located behind of the rotor and is used to support a fan driving motor. The total and static pressure are applied to the restriction condition with the operating flowrate on the design point, and the efficiency is chosen as the response variable to be maximized. Through these procedures, an initial axial-fan blade designed by the free vortex method is modified to increase the efficiency with the satisfaction of the operating condition. The optimized fan is tested to compare the aerodynamic performance with an imported same class fan. The test result shows that the optimized fan operates with the satisfaction of restriction conditions, but the imported fan cannot. From the experimental and numerical test, they show that this optimization method improves the fan efficiency and operating pressures of a fan designed by the classical fan design method.

This study represents three-dimensional turbulent flow characteristics around an axial fan measured at the operating point ${\varphi}=0.32$, which is equivalent to the maximum flowrate region, by using three-dimensional fiber-optic type LDA system. This LDA system is composed of a 5 W Argon-ion laser, two optics in back-scatter mode, three BSA's, a PC, and a three-dimensional automatic traversing system. A kind of paraffin fog is used for laser particles in this study. Mean velocity profiles around an axial fan along the downstream radial distance show that the streamwise and the tangential components exist as a predominant velocity and have the maximum value at the radial distance ratio 0.8, while the radial component has a small scale distribution and its flow direction is inward except a part of blade tip. The turbulent intensity profiles show that the radial component exists the most greatly. And also the turbulent kinetic energy shows about 60% as a maximum value at the radial distance ratio 0.9. Moreover, the Reynolds shear stresses do not exist at upstream flow, but the streamwise and the radial components of them show about 20% as a maximum value at the radial distance ratio 0.9 at downstream flow.

Many different types of fan have been applying to various industrial fields. Fan design methods are much different depending on the types of fan, operating conditions, and connecting parts at the inlet or exit of the fan etc. In this study, design methods for an axial-type suction fan are studied. This fan discharges the air in the relative static pressure of -285Pa to the atmosphere with the flow rate of $960m^3/min$. For three-dimensional blade design, three different design methods were applied, such as the free vortex method, the exponential method, and the cascade method. In the cascade method, the blade loading along the radial direction was obtained from the lift coefficient which was necessary to obtain the pressure rise on a fan rotor. This method is different from the free vortex and the exponential method which control the strength of the vortex. The fan performance prediction was conducted using the CFD with three different inlet ducts. The best fan performance was obtained when the fan was designed by using the cascade method. The designed fan using the exponential method showed better performance compared to a fan designed using the free vortex method. However, the fan performance was changed depending on the installed inlet ducts. So, an efficient fan can be designed with the adjustment of design variables on the basis of the flow structures within the fan as well as the fan design procedure.

Objective : Clip artifacts limit the visualization of intracranial structures in CT scans from patients after aneurysmal clipping with cobalt alloy clips. This study is to analyze the parameters influencing the degree of clip artifacts. Methods : Postoperative CT scans of 60 patients with straight cobalt alloy-clipped aneurysms were analyzed for the maximal diameter of white artifacts and the angle and number of streak artifacts in axial images, and the maximal diameter of artifacts in three-dimensional (3-D) volume-rendered images. The correlation coefficient (CC) was determined between each clip artifact type and the clip blade length and clip orientation to the CT scan (angle a, lateral clip inclination in axial images; angle b, clip gradient to scan plane in lateral scout images). Results : Angle b correlated negatively with white artifacts (r=-0.589, p<0.001) and positively with the angle (r=0.636, p<0.001) and number (r=0.505, p<0.001) of streak artifacts. Artifacts in 3-D images correlated with clip blade length (r=0.454, p=0.004). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that angle b was the major parameter influencing white artifacts and the angle and number of streak artifacts in axial images (p<0.001), whereas clip blade length was a major factor in 3-D images (p=0.034). Conclusion : Use of a clip orientation perpendicular to the scan gantry angle decreased the amount of white artifacts and allowed better visualization of the clip site.

In this paper, thermo-flow characteristics of an outer-rotor type of a BLDC motor are numerically analyzed using three-dimensional turbulence modeling. In an advance design of BLDC motor, cooling blades and holes are preferred for the enhanced cooling performances. Rotating the blades and holes generates axial air flow passing through stator slots, which cools down stator by forced convection. For the present study, a new design of the BLDC motor has been developed and major design parameters such as the arrangement of cooling holes, the area of cooling holes, and cooling blades and the cooling blade angle, are analyzed for the enhanced convective heat transfer rate. It is found that the convective heat transfer rate of the new BLDC motor model is increased by about 8.1%, compared to that of the reference model.
