The flow instability in a low specific speed mixed-flow pump, having a positive slope of head-flow characteristics was investigated. Based on the static pressure measurements, it was found that a rotating stall in the vaned diffuser occurs at about 65% flow rate of best efficiency point (BEP). A dynamic Particle Image Velocimetry (DPIV) measurement and the numerical simulations were conducted in order to investigate the flow fields. As a result, the diffuser rotating stall was simulated even by Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and the calculated periodic flow patterns agree well with the measured ones by DPIV. It is clarified that a periodical large scaled backflow, generated at the leading edge of the suction surface of the diffuser vane, causes the instability. Furthermore, the growth of the strong vortex at the leading edge of the diffuser vane induces the strong backflow from the diffuser outlet to the inlet. The scale of one stall cell is covered over four-passages in total thirteen vane-passages.

When NaOCl was generated and put into sea-water cooling machine in order to overcome the biological hindrances against sea-water cooling machine, it was converted into metallic ion, particularly Ca and Mg, as a hydrate in sea-water and is to stick to electrolyte as a side reaction. This phenomena make the distance between the electrolytes narrow to decrease the flow rate, which induces the local vortex flow which erodes the pole plate. Moreover, this increases the resistance of the electrolyte as well as voltage to decrease the electrolytic efficiency, which has curtailed a chlorine yield and caused a pole plate cut. We are able to overcome these problems by chemical cleaning and intend to extend the life-time of electrolyte and to increase output of the sea-water electrolysis facilities by studying optimal policy regarding chemical cleaning of electrolytic cell. Cleaning time of electrolytic facilities is determined when both increase in electrolytic efficiency and decrease in pole-plate voltage are 10%. At this time as operating current of electrolytic facilities is high, operating time is diminished. Whereas, parameter of end point determination according to cleaning is Mg ionic concentration in solution. When we use Cleaner as a 7wt% HCl, cleaning time is about 80min proper. We are able to maintain pole plate performance by protecting against pole plate cut by means of electrolytic by-product, improve operating rate of facilities, and cut down on maintenance expenditure after acidic cleaning.

Fine grid calculations are reported for the developing turbulent flow in a curved duct of square cross-section with a radius of curvature to hydraulic diameter ratio ${\delta}=Rc/D_H=3.357 $ and a bend angle of 720 deg. A sequence of modeling refinements is introduced; the replacement of wall function by a fine mesh across the sublayer and a low Reynolds number algebraic second moment closure up to the near wall sublayer in which the non-linear return to isotropy model and the cubic-quasi-isotropy model for the pressure strain are adopted; and the introduction of a multiple source model for the exact dissipation rate equation. Each refinement is shown to lead to an appreciable improvement in the agreement between measurement and computation.

Cold fusion technologies now are being developed very successfully. The $\pi$-far infrared rays are generated from three dimensional crystallizing $\pi$-bondings of oxygen atoms in water molecules. The growing cavity in water molecules make near resonance state and a vortex of infrared rays and attracts $\pi$-far infrared rays in the water. The cavity surrounded by a lot of $\pi$-far infrared rays has a very strong gravitational field. The $\pi$-far infrared rays are contracted into $\pi$-far infrared rays of half wave length and of one wave length. The $\pi$-far infrared rays of half wave length generate heat while $\pi$-far infrared rays of one wave length are contracted into $\pi$-gamma rays of one wave length. The contracted $\pi$-gamma rays of one wave length make nucleons and mesons, which is the creation and transmutation of matter by covalent bondings and three-dimensional crystallizing $\pi$-bondings into implosion bonding. Patterson power cell generates a very strong gravitational cavity because the electrolysized oxygen atoms make $\pi$-far infrared rays than in plain water.

A hybrid particle-mesh method as the combination between the Vortex-In-Cell (VIC) method and penalization method has been achieved in recent years. The VIC method, which is based on the vorticity-velocity formulation, offers particle-mesh algorithms to numerically simulate flows past a solid body. The penalization method is used to enforce boundary conditions at a body surface with a decoupling between body boundaries and computational grids. The main advantage of the hybrid particle-mesh method is an efficient implementation for solid boundaries of arbitrary complexity on Cartesian grids. However, a numerical simulation of flows in large domains is still not too easy. In this study, a multi-domain approach is thus proposed to further reduce computation cost and easily implement it. We validate the implementation by numerical simulations of an incompressible viscous flow around an impulsively started circular cylinder.

A new approach has been adopted to remove the hot particulates from nuclear facilities, KAERI, South Korea, by using the new compact cyclone train, made of steel ness steel, with optional vortex finder length. Flow rate results showed a dramatic change in removal efficiency, performance was changed with the change of exit tube length. The 15 m/s flow rate was found suitable one for new equipment with the 49 mm optimum exit tube length for 76 mm cyclone body diameter. Results shows the removal efficiency for $1\;{\mu}m$ was more than $65\%$ and for $10\;{\mu}m$ was seen ${\~}97\%$. Over 15 m/s flow rate, was not shown much different in removal efficiency. The removal efficiency increased with the flow rate, and pressure drop. Cut size diameter decrease with the inlet flow rate. Cut size diameter found lowest with 49 mm exit tube length and 15 m/s flow rate. For filters the performance decreased with the inlet velocity increased.

Several studies on the development for solar powered uninhabited aerial vehicles(UAVs) are under way as the use of the renewable energy becomes more and more important these days. This paper is for the conceptual design by a discrete and iterative method. An initial design point with 1.5 meter wing span is determined in the global design, which deploys the mass and energy balances among each component of UAV including solar cells and airframe. Then, the iteration for subsystems is carried out with the help of Vortex Lattice Method(VLM) to optimize the aircraft configuration and the solar power system. It is demonstrated in simulations that the optimized design increases the flight time from 62 to 120 minutes when the solar power system is installed. Also, the associated dynamic analysis reveals that the designed small aircraft has the acceptable stability and controllability.

The flow field around a high-speed train including cross-wind effects has been simulated. This study solves 3-D unsteady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in the inertial frame using the iterative time marching scheme. The governing equations are differenced with 1st-order accurate backward difference scheme for the time derivatives, 3th-order accurate QUICK scheme for the convective terms and 2nd-order accurate central difference scheme for the viscous terms. The Marker-and-Cell concept was applied to efficiently solve continuity equation, which is differenced with 2nd-order accurate central difference scheme. The 4th-order artificial damping is added to the continuity equation for numerical stability. A C-H type of elliptic grid system is generated around a high-speed train including ground. The Baldwin-Lomax turbulent model was implemented to simulate the turbulent flows. To validate the present procedure, the flow around a high speed train at constant yaw angle of $45^{\circ}\;and\;90^{\circ}$ has been simulated. The simulation shows 3-D vortex generation in the lee corner. The flow separation is also observed around the rear of the train. It has concluded that the results of present study properly agree with physical flow phenomena.

본 연구에서는 겨울철 영동지역에서 2001 ~ 2012(12년) 동안 일신적설 50 cm 이상의 3개 극한 대설사례를 선정하여 위성에서 관측된 구름을 추적하여 공간적 특성을 분석하였다. 그리고 그 특성을 레이더 강수와 비교하였다. 이 연구에서 선정된 영동지역 극한 대설사례는 영동지역(영동 앞바다)에서 발생하여 발달하거나 동한만 부근에서 발생하여 영동지역으로 이동해 들어오는 독립되고 잘 발달된 그리고 크기가 작은 대류형 구름과 관련이 있다. 주강수 시기의 이 구름덩어리의 최저휘도온도는 -$-40{\sim}-50^{\circ}C$로 낮고, 휘도온도 $-35^{\circ}C$ 혹은 $-40^{\circ}C$ 이하의 구름 크기는 약 17,000 ~ 40,000 $km^2$로 중규모 대류복합체($-52^{\circ}C$ 이하 구름크기 50,000 $km^2$)보다 작은 크기이다. 이 때 레이더의 강수면적(0.5 mm/hr 이상)도 약 4,000 ~ 8,000 $km^2$로 작고 독립된 강수 형태를 보인다. 위성의 구름영역과 레이더 강수영역은 영동 앞바다에 비슷하게 위치하였으나 레이더 강수의 중심이 상대적으로 영동 해안에 인접해 위치하였다. 또한 구름이 발달하는 과정에서 구름의 극값과 강수의 극값이 일치하지 않는 경우도 나타났다. 그러나 모든 사례에서 주강수 시기에 구름은 영동 앞바다에 위치하였다. 따라서 구름덩어리의 위치가 극한 대설에 있어 무엇보다 중요한 요소인 것으로 판단된다. 수증기 영상은 건조구역(암역)의 가장자리 북쪽에서 구름덩어리가 발달함을 보여주었다. 따라서 위성관측의 구름영상과 지상 레이더에 의한 강수관측 값과 비교하여 보았을 때, 위에 선정된 극한 대설 사례는 부저기압 혹은 소용돌이의 발달과 관련되어 있는 것으로 생각된다. 영동지역 극한 대설에 대한 초단기 예보에 있어 초기에 동한만 혹은 영동지역에서 작고 발달된 대류형 구름을 탐지하고 추적하는 것이 중요하다.
