A concentration change during grade transition operation in thin slab casting is investigated through computer simulation and the results are compared with experimental measurements. Fluid flow and mixing patterns in various tundish levers and flow rates were analysed by a three-dimensional mathematical model. Based on the contained results, a simple, efficient and accurate computational model is suggested to predict the concentration profile at the outlet of the tundish. Based on the model, mixing in and below the mold was analyzed considering electromagnetic braking force. The predicted concentration profiles show good agreements with the measured values. It is found that the lower vortices in the mold are suppressed by the electromagnetic field and a plug-like flow region develops, which decreases the intermixing of two different grades of steel and shortens the length of transition region.

In many technical fields including electronics and display manufacturing processes, properties of coating liquids could be greatly enhanced by adding nanopowders and it requires efficient mixing techniques to achieve uniform dispersion of nanoparticles in liquids. This paper presents the three-dimensional CFD simulations on the flowfields of a highly viscous liquid in the large scale industrial mixer of impeller type. The effects of several important design and operation parameters such as impeller geometry, rotational speed, and degree of liquid viscosity are investigated to appreciate the mixing performance by examining the computational results for flow pattern of rotationally stirred liquid of high viscosity in the mixer.

The transport of radionuclides at oceanic scales can be assessed using a Lagrangian model. In this review an application of such a model to the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific oceans is described. The transport model, which is fed with water currents provided by global ocean circulation models, includes advection by three-dimensional currents, turbulent mixing, radioactive decay and adsorption/release of radionuclides between water and bed sediments. Adsorption/release processes are described by means of a dynamic model based upon kinetic transfer coefficients. A stochastic method is used to solve turbulent mixing, decay and water/sediment interactions. The main results of these oceanic radionuclide transport studies are summarized in this paper. Particularly, the potential leakage of ¹³⁷Cs from dumped nuclear wastes in the north Atlantic region was studied. Furthermore, hypothetical accidents, similar in magnitude to the Fukushima accident, were simulated for nuclear power plants located around the Indian Ocean coastlines. Finally, the transport of radionuclides resulting from the release of stored water, which was used to cool reactors after the Fukushima accident, was analyzed in the Pacific Ocean.

스크램제트 엔진은 대기중의 공기를 흡입하여 연소실에서 초음속으로 연소하는 방식으로 짧은 시간 동안 연료와 공기가 혼합하고 연소되어야하는 특징이 있다. 연료와 공기 혼합을 증대하는 방법은 여러 가지가 제시되었다. 이중 자유류 마하수 2.5의 단일분사 방법에서의 cavity를 이용한 혼합증대 특성을 알아보기 위해 수치해석을 수행하였다. 수치해석은 상용코드인 CFD-Fastran의 3차원 Navier-Stokes 방정식과 Menter SST(Shear Stress Transport) 난류모델을 적용하였다. cavity 뒤쪽 0.5 cm 떨어진 곳에 지름 0.1cm의 Jet 분사구를 통해 수직분사를 시켜 cavity의 유무에 따른 혼합특성을 살펴보았고, cavity에 대한 영향을 알아보기 위해 $3\times2\times1\;cm$ 크기의 cavity를 사용했다. 계산된 결과는 동일조건의 실험으로 검증하였고 이를 통해 cavity에 의한 혼합증대 특성을 확인할 수 있었다.

은수원사시나무 파티클과 저밀도 폴리에틸렌을 50:50, 60:40, 70:30의 3종류 혼합비율로 열압온도 145℃와 열압시간 5분에서 목질플라스틱패널을 제조하였다. 본 연구에서 목질플라스틱패널을 제조하는데 왁스와 접착제 등 어떤 첨가제도 사용하지 않았다. 제조한 목질플라스틱패널의 밀도, 박리강도, 휨탄성계수, 휨파괴계수, 두께팽창률 및 물흡수율에 대한 성질을 측정하여 패널의 성능을 평가하였다. 성능평가한 data를 SAS programing package에 의해 통계분석한 결과에 의하면 목질플라스틱패널의 박리강도, 휨파괴계수 등의 성질은 목재/폴리에틸렌 혼합비율이 50:50으로 제조된 패널이 다른 혼합비율인 60:40과 70:30으로 제조된 패널보다 5% 수준에서 높게 나타났다. 목질플라스틱패널의 치수안정화를 기준으로 볼 때, 목재/폴리에틸렌 최적의 혼합 비율이 60:40이라는 결과를 보여줬다.

본 논문에서는, 자기유체역학(MHD)을 기반으로 마이크로 채널 내부에 다중 와류 유동을 발생시키는 새로운 형태의 카오스 마이크로 믹서를 제안한다. 제안된 마이크로 믹서의 마이크로 채널 내부에는 양측면과 바닥면에 전극들이 배치되어 있다. 배치된 전극들에 인가되는 전압 조건에 따라 다양한 형태로 로렌츠 힘이 유도되며, 이렇게 유도된 로렌츠 힘은 마이크로 채널 내부 유체의 추진 및 혼합을 야기할 수 있다. 제안된 MHD 마이크로 믹서의 혼합 양상을 평가하기 위해 3 차원 전산유체역학 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 이를 통해 다양한 유동 조건에 대해 MHD 마이크로 믹서의 혼합 성능을 평가하였다.

In general, TVC(Thermal Vapor Compressor) is used to boost/compress a low pressure vapor to a higher pressure for further utilization. The one-dimensional method is simple and reasonably accurate, but cannot realize the detail as like the back flow and recirculation in the mixing chamber, viscous shear effect, and etc. In this study, the axisymmetric How simulations have been performed to reveal the detailed flow characteristics for the various ejector shapes. The Navier-Stokes and energy equations are solved together with the continuity equation In the compressible flow fields. The standard $k-{\epsilon}$ model is selected for the turbulence modeling. The commercial computational fluid dynamic code FLUENT software is used for the simulation. The results contain the entrainment ratio under the various motive, suction and discharge pressure conditions. The numerical results are compared with the experimental data, and the comparison shows the good agreement. The three different flow regimes (double chocking, single chocking and back flow) have been clearly distinguished according to each boundary pressure values. Also the effects of the various shape variables (nozzle position, nozzle outlet diameter, mixing tube diameter, mixing tube converging angle, and etc.) are quantitatively discussed.

3-D visualization using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) in a chaotic micromixer was performed as a reproduction experiment and the feasibility of 3-0 imaging technique in the microscale was confirmed. For diagonal micromixer (DM) and two types of staggered herringbone micromixers (SHM) designed by Whitesides et al., to verify the evolution of mixing, cross sectional images are reconstructed at the end of every cycle. In a DM, clockwise rotational flow motion generated by diagonal ridges placed on the floor of micromixer is observed and this motion makes the fluid commingle. On the contrary, there are two rotational flow structures in the SHM and the centers of rotation exchange their position each other every half cycle because of the V shape of ridges varying their orientation every half cycle. Local rotational flow and local extensional flow generated by the complicate ridge pattern make the flow be chaotic and accelerate the mixing of fluid. The dominant parameter that influences on the mixing characteristic of SHM is not the length of micromixer but the number of ridges under the same flow configurations.

The characteristics of the dual-Doppler wind retrieval method based on a three dimensional variational (3DVAR) conception were investigated from the following four points of view; the sensitivity of the number of iteration, the effect of the weak constraint term, the effect of the smoothness term, and the sensitivity of the error mixing ratio of the radial velocities. In the experiment, the radial velocities relative to the Gosan and Jindo radar sites of the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) were calculated from the forecasting of the WRF (Weather Research and Forecast; Skamarock, 2004) model at 1330 UTC 30 June 2006, which is the one and half hour forecast from the initial time, 1200 UTC on that day. The results showed that the retrieval performance of the horizontal wind field was robust, but that of the vertical wind was sensitive to the external conditions, such as iteration number and the on/off of the weak constraint term. The sensitivity of error mixing ratio was so large that even the horizontal wind retrieval efficiency was reduced a lot. But the sensitivity of the smooth term was not so large. When we applied this method to the real mesoscale convective system (MCS) between the Gosan and Jindo radar pair at 1430 UTC 30 June 2006, the wind structure of the convective cells in the MCS was consistently retrieved relative to the reflectivity factor structure. By comparing the vertical wind structure of this case with that of 10 minutes after, 1440 UTC 30 June 2006, we got the physical consistency of our method.

A thermal-hydraulic code, named CUPID, has been being developed for the realistic analysis of transient two-phase flows in nuclear reactor components. The CUPID code development was motivated from very practical needs, including the analyses of a downcomer boiling, a two-phase flow mixing in a pool, and a two-phase flow in a direct vessel injection system. The CUPID code adopts a two-fluid, three-field model for two-phase flows, and the governing equations are solved over unstructured grids with a semi-implicit two-step method. This paper presents an overview of the CUPID code development and assessment strategy. It also presents the code couplings with a system code, MARS, and, a three-dimensional reactor kinetics code, MASTER.
