The purpose of this study is to analyze spray and evaporation characteristics of DME fuel at the high pressure and temperature. For the numerical analysis of dimethyl ether(DME) fuel spray characteristics, hybrid breakup model was applied to the DME spray and its breakup process. In order to obtain experimental results for comparison with the predicted ones, the visualization of the spray evolution process was executed by using a Nd:YAG laser. Also, the numerical investigation was conducted by the two hybrid models for primary and secondary breakup of the DME spray. The primary breakup model was used the Kelvin-Helmholtz(KH) breakup model. In the secondary breakup process, Rayleigh-Taylor(RT) and Drop Deformation Breakup(DDB) model was applied. The results of this study provide the macroscopic characteristics of the spray such as spray tip penetration and cone angle, and prediction accuracy of the two hybrid model.

The flow characteristics around a floating cylinder in a swirling flow field in a vertical pipe with a length of 600mm and an inner diameter of 100mm is investigated by the use of the Stereoscopic-PIV system. The measurement system consists of two cameras, a Nd-Yag laser and a host computer. Optical sensors(LEDs) were used to detect the location of the floating cylinder and to activate the Stereoscopic-PIV system. A conditional sampling Stereoscopic-PIV system was developed in which the flow fields around the floating cylinder are measured at the events of the activations. It has been verified that the motion of the floating cylinder becomes stable when the azimuthal velocity component of the swirl flow is maintained at stable states.

레이저 가공기 세계시장은 2010년에 약 70억 달러 이상의 규모가 예상되고 고출력 CW 고체 레이저 시장은 2010년까지 매년 약 30%의 성장이, 펄스레이저 시스템 및 레이저마킹기 시장는 연간 10% 이상의 성장을 예상하고 있다. 반면, 세계 레이저 발진기의 시장에서 CO2 레이저의 경우 시장의 규모가 작아져서 2004년에 약 4억 달러의 규모가 2010년에는 약 2.3억 달러 수준으로 하향할 것으로 예상되고 있다. 고체 레이저에서 특기할 사항은 2010년에 Lamp Pumped CW Nd;YAG 레이저의 경우 약 74백만 달러로 규모가 축소됨에 비해 고출력 DPSSL(Diode Pumped Solid State laser) 시장규모는 약 17억 달러로 급성장하며 레이저 마킹 및 미세 정밀 가공용 저출력 DPSSL의 시장 규모가 약 13억 달러로 고속 성장할 것으로 예측이 된다.

A 4D-PTV system was constructed. The measurement system consists of three high-speed high-definition cameras, Nd-Yag laser and a host computer. The GA-3D-PTV algorithm was used for completing the measurement system. A horizontal impinged jet flow was measured. The Reynolds number is about 40,000. Spatial temporal evolution of the jet flow was examined and physical properties such as spatial distributions of vorticity and turbulent kinetic energy were obtained with the constructed system.

A custom micro-PIV optics assembly has been used to measure the flow field inside a T-shaped microchannel. The micro-PIV system consists of microscope objectives of various magnifications, a dichroic cube, and an 8-bit CCD camera. Fluorescent particles of diameters 620nm have been used with a Nd:YAG laser and color filters. A programmable syringe pump with Teflon tubings were used to inject particle-seeded distilled water into the channel at flow rates of $420,\;40,\;60{\mu}L/hr$. The microchannels are fabricated with PDMS with a silicon mold, then $O_2-ion$ bonded onto a slide glass. Results show differences in flow characteristics and resolution according to fluid injection rates, and magnifications, respectively. The results show PIV results with vector-to-vector distances of $2{\mu}m$ with 32 pixel-square interrogation windows at $50{\%}$ overlap.

This study investigated the effects of pressure on the growth of an impinging spray. We obtained the frozen images which were scattered by Nd ; YAG laser light (pulse width : 7 ns) using synchronization circuit made in the laboratory. For an impinging spray a growth of the penetration length was progressed with increase of the injection pressure but an ambient pressure restrained its growth. The effect of an ambient pressure on penetration was larger than that of an injection pressure. The pressure ratio had an effect on the penetration growth rate. The thickness growth rate depended on both the injection pressure and the ambient pressure compositively. A lower injection pressure or a higher ambient pressure was required for spatial distribution of impinging spray.

The purpose of this study is to propose and compare methods for measuring individual spray cone angles using spray cross-section images. In direct injection gasoline engines, it was believed that the distribution of air-fuel mixture in the combustion chamber directly affected combustion performance and emission formation. However, since gasoline direct injection (GDI) injectors have a small injection angle, interference between individual spray plumes occurs. Therefore, GDI injectors have only measured the spray angle of the entire spray. To overcome these limitations, three methods of indirectly measuring the spray cone angles of individual spray plume were presented and compared by forming sheet beams using Nd:YAG laser and acquiring spray cross-section images. Each method currently has advantages and disadvantages, and research to apply the method suitable for various GDI injectors needs to be continued.

We investigated a high-output ower, periodically poled lithium niobate(PPLN) optical parametric oscillator(OPO) pumped by a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser. Given the low optical damage threshold and the limited aperture (0.5mm thick) of PPLN, we tried to maximize the signal output power in a linear cavity consisting of two flat mirrors with a loosely focused pump beam. It is found that this simple cavity structure allowed a robust OPO operation, which was not sensitive to alignment compared with the conventional ones using concave mirrors. A maximum energy of 100$\mu$J/pulse was achieved for the signal at 1.36${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, while the oscillation threshold was 0.3 mJ/pulse for the pump at 1064 nm.

Nuclear fuel elements containing dry recycling nuclear fuel pellets for the irradiation test in a reactor were remotely fabricated from spent PWR fuel materials in a hot cell. End closure welding as well as seal tube welding for thermal sensor of the elements was performed by Nd:YAG laser. The soundness of the end closure welds and seal tube welds for the elements were evaluated by a precise X-ray inspection system composed of a micro-focus X-ray generator with an image intensifier and a real time camera system. Then, helium leak test was performed for the elements. The soundness of the welds of the fuel elements was confirmed by the X-ray inspection and helium leak test. The irradiation test for the fuel elements were successfully completed at the HANARO research reactor.
