The nonlinear finite element analysis for deformation characteristics of a power steering hose during the swaging process is performed in order to investigate the stress and the strain levels of the hose components. Power steering hose consists of components such as rubber hose, nylon, nipple and sleeve. Moreover, the numerical analysis requires the consideration of material, geometry and boundary nonlinearities. To evaluate the rubber hose strength, the measured stresses and strains are compared with tension and compression test data. Contact force is also a principal factor to examine whether rubber hose is break away from sleeve and nipple or not.

This paper reports a result of numerical heat transfer analysis for heat spreader with various ribs. Four different ribs are compared in this study. In general, the heat transfer on a vertical plate is enhanced when a rib is attached as the surface area increases, and the growth of the boundary layer is interrupted. However, for a low flow less than 0.1m/s, it is observed that the heat transfer is sensitive to the height of a rib: it decreases as the height increases. Among the four ribs, the H-shaped rib showed better performance than other ribs.

This study represents the numerical analysis of natural convection of a microenvironments with a air permeability in the clothing air-layer. The clothing air layer of shoulder and arm was used for numerical analysis model. As a numerical analysis method, we adopted a finite volume method for two-dimensional laminar flow, and analyzed the flow and thermal characteristics of velocity, temperature and concentration in the air layer between body and clothing. As a temperature boundary conditions, we considered that a body skin has a high temperature with $34^{\circ}C$ the environmental temperatures are $5,\;15\;and\;25^{\circ}C$ for various permeability coefficients. The distributions of concentration, temperature and velocity were showed that two large cells were. formed at horizontal and vertical air layer, respectively. As the temperature difference between body skin and environment decrease, the heat transfer was decreased rapidly.

The CSCM Upwind method and Material Transport Analysis (MTA) have been used to predict the thermal response and ablation rate for non-charring material to be used as thermal protection material (TPM) in KSR-III test rocket nozzle. The thermal boundary conditions such as cold wall heat-transfer rate and recovery enthalpy for MTA code are obtained from the upwind Navier-Stokes solution procedure. The heat transfer rate and temperature variations at rocket nozzle wall were studied with shape change of the nozzle surface as time goes by. The surface recession was severely occurred at nozzle throat and this affected nozzle performance such as thrust coefficient substantially.

The present work analyzes the pressure drop and heat transfer characteristics of the plate heat exchanger with staggered dimples. The flow is assumed to be constant property, three dimensional and laminar. A thermal boundary condition is uniform wall temperature and it is assumed that the flow is periodically fully developed. Elliptic grid generation is used for proper modelling of the internal tube geometry with dimples. Computations have been carried out for a variety of geometric parameters, Reynolds number, and Prandtl number. The friction factor ratio and the ratio of a module average Nusselt number are presented for the cases considered in this study. It is found that the distance between dimples has a substantial effect on the pressure drop and heat transfer.

Laboratory measurements were made of wall pressure fluctuations in a separated and reattaching flow over a backward-facing step. An array of 32 microphones along the streamwise direction was utilized. Various statistical properties of pressure fluctuations were scrutinized. The main emphasis was placed on the flow inhomogeneity along the streamwise direction. One point statistics such as the streamwise distribution of rms pressure and autospectra were shown to be generally consistent with other studies. The coherences and wavenumber spectra in the streamwise directions were indicative of the presence of dual modes in pressure; one is the large-scale vortical structure in low frequency and the other is the boundary-layer-like decaying mode in high frequency.

The objective of the present study is to develop a new type of the Ballistic range, called 'two-stage light gas gun'. A computational work has been performed to investigate the aerodynamics of a projectile which is launched from the two-stage light gas gun. A moving coordinate method for a multi-domain technique is employed to simulate unsteady projectile flows with a moving boundary. The effect of a virtual mass is added to the axisymmetric unsteady Euler equation systems. The computed results reasonably capture the major flow characteristics which are generated in launching the projectile supersonically, such as the interaction between the shock wave and the blast wave, the interaction between the vortical flow and the barrel shock, and the steady under-expanded jet. The present computational results properly predict the velocity, acceleration, and drag histories of the projectile.

Numerical analysis of two dimensional incompressible laminar free jet flow was carried out by using finite difference SMAC scheme. Flow characteristics of free jet flow such as jet width, similarity of jet velocity and hypothetical origin were investigated for different Reynolds numbers of Re=30 and 100. The reliability of predictions were confirmed by comparison with exact solution. Non-dimensional velocity distribution showed similarity of jet flow velocity after initial region. In the region of laminar flow, the location of hypothetical origin becomes more distant with Reynolds number.

The structural properties of varistors surface studied by fractal phenomenon were investigated to verify the relations of electrical characteristics. The SEM photograph of varistors surface were changed by binary code and the grain shape of that were analyzed by fractal dimension. The void of varistors surface was found by fractal program. The relation between grain density and electrical properties depend on fractal dimension. The grain size in varistors surface was decreased by increasing of oxide antimony addition. The grain size of devices by oxide antimony addition were from 5 to $10[{\mu}m]$. The fractal dimension and electrical properties of varistors surface was related to between grain boundary and grain density. The grain size was decreased by increasing of fractal dimensions.

The effect of WO$_3$ addition and sintering condition on the electrical properties of SrTiO$_3$ceramic have been investigated. Resistivity and capacitance of grains and grain boundaries were obtained by applying impedance spectroscopy. From the result it could be concluded that the temperature dependance of capacitance of WO$_3$doped specimens were influenced directly by the variation of grain boundary capacitance. It was also found that the dispersion frequency increased as the degree of reduction of the specimen increased. The dispersion frequency characteristics showed discernably that the resistivity of the specimen varied with WO$_3$ content. The dielectric properties were influenced directly by the reduction of the specimens. The dielectric constant of grain boundaries of BL capacitor could be obtained by Cole-Cole plot and was influeneced by the amount of WO$_3$ added.
