The capillary number is used to represent the mobilization potential of organic phase trapped within porous media. The capillary number has been defined by three different forms, according to types of flow velocity and viscosity used in the definition of capillary number. This study evaluated the suitability of the capillary number definitions for representing TCE mobilization by constructing capillary number-TCE saturation relationships. The results implied that the capillary number should be correctly employed, according to interest of scale and fluid flow behavior. This study suggests that the pore-scale capillary number may be used only for investigating the organic-phase mobilization at the pore scale because it is defined by the pore-velocity and the dynamic viscosity. The Newtonian-fluid capillary number using Darcy velocity and the dynamic viscosity may be suitable to quantify flood systems representing Newtonian fluid behavior. For viscous-force modified flood systems such as surfactant-foam floods, the apparent capillary number definition employing macroscopic properties (permeability and potential gradient) may be used to appropriately represent the desaturation of organic-phases from porous media.

The purpose of the present study is to investigate the capillary heat transportation limitation in heat pipe according to the change of screen mesh wick porosity. Diameter of pipe was 6 mm, and mesh numbers are 100, 150, 200 and 250 and water was selected as a working fluid. According to the change of wick porosity and mesh number, the capillary pressure, pumping pressure, liquid friction coefficient in wick, vapor friction coefficient, and capillary heat transportation limitation are analyzed by theoretical design method of a heat pipe. As some results, the capillary heat transportation limitation in screen mesh wick heat pipe is largely affected by wick porosity and mesh number.

The purpose of the present study is to examine the heat transport limitations in a screen mesh heat pipe for electronic cooling by theoretical analysis. Diameter of pipe was 6mm, and mesh numbers were 50, 100, 150, 200 and 250, and water was investigated as working fluid. According to the change of mesh number, wick layer, inclination and saturation temperature, the maximum heat transport limitations by capillary, entraintment, sonic and boiling were analyzed by a theoretical design method of heat pipe, including capillary pressure, pumping pressure, liquid friction coefficient in wick, vapor friction coefficient, etc. Based on the results, the capillary limitation in a small diameter of heat pipe is largely affected by mesh number and wick layer. Mesh number of 250 is desirable not to be used in pipe diameter of 6 mm, because capillary heat transport limitation decreases by the abrupt increase of liquid friction pressure due to the small liquid flow area. For the heat transport of 15 watt in 6mm diameter pipe, mesh number of 100 and one layer is an optimum wick condition, which thermal resistance is the smallest.

수지이동 성형공정에서 섬유직조가 수지에 의해 함침될 때 발생하는 기공 또는 나쁜 젖음성은 최종 성형품의 물성 저하에 심각한 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구에서는 함침공정에서의 수지 유동특성을 파악하고 기공 형성기구를 규명하기 위하여, 빔 형태의 금형을 대상으로 실리콘 오일과 평직형태의 유리섬유를 사용하여 미시적인 유동가시화 실험을 수행하였다. 시간과 압력에 따른 수지의 침투길이를 측정함으로써 섬유직조의 기공률에 따른 비정상상태의 투과계수와 모세관압을 측정하였고, 낮은 조업압력과 낮은 기공률에서는 모세관압이 함침공정에서 중요한 가공변수임을 확인할 수 있었다. 비디오 카메라를 이용하여 유동전단면의 이동을 근접 확대 촬영하여 기공이 형성되는 과정을 미시적으로 관찰함으로써, 섬유와 수지의 표면에너지에 의해 발생되는 모세관압이 기공의 형성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 그 결과, 수지충전을 유발하는 전체 구동압력에서 모세관압이 상대적으로 클수록 기공은 더욱 쉽게 생성되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 수지의 점도와 섬유직조의 기공률이 각각 변화할 때, 모세관수에 따른 기공의 함량을 화상 해석 기법(image analysis technique)을 사용하여 정량적으로 측정하였다. 수지가 섬유직조 내로 함침될 때 임계모세관수(Ca~2.75$\times$$10^{-3})이상에서는 기공이 형성되지 않았으며, 그 이하에서는 모세관수가 감소함에 따라 기공의 함량이 지수적으로 증가하였다. 생성된 기공의 함량은 점도에 관계없이 유사한 변화 경향을 보였으며, 모세관수가 동일한 조건에서는, 기공률이 감소함에 따라 기공의 함량이 감소하였다.

비상용성 LDPE/PS 블렌드계 (86.5/l3.5 vol%)를 내부 혼합기를 사용하여 만들었고 레오미터 (rheometer)와 scanning electron microscope (SEM)으로 분산상인 droplet들의 변형과 합체 (coalescence)거동에 대하여 살펴보았다. 혼합 초기에 일정한 크기의 droplet들이 서로 뭉쳐졌고 큰 변형 하에서 실모양 (thread-like)을 나타냈다. 본 실험에 사용한 LDPE/PS 블렌드계의 critical capillary number를 De Bruijn의 실험식으로 계산한 결과 0.96이었고 local capillary number는 3.867이었다. 또한 블렌드 시편을 $200^{\circ}C$에서 다양한 시간으로 서냉한 후 서냉 시간에 따른 형태의 변화를 관찰하였다. $200^{\circ}C$에서 ${\gamma}$=1789일 때 최대 크기의 droplet이 관찰되었고 특히 서냉 시간이 15분일 때 형태의 파괴 (break-up)가 일어났다. Droplet의 합체에 결정적인 영향을 미치는 것은 기질의 점도이다.

A previously designed capillary viscometer with measuring differential pressure was modified to measure the viscosity of non-Newtonian fluids including unadulterated blood continuously over numerous shear rates in a single measurement. Because of unavoidable experimental noise and a limited number of data, the previous capillary viscometer experienced an inaccuracy and could not directly determine a viscosity without an iterative calculation. However, in the present measurement there are numerous data available near the point of interest so that the numeric value of the derivative, d(In Q)/d(In Q$\sub$w/), is no longer sensitive to the method of differentiation. In addition, relatively low and wide shear rate viscosity measurements were possible because of the present precision pressure-scanning method with respect to time. For aqueous polymer solutions, excellent agreement was found between the results from the pressure-scanning capillary viscometer and those from a commercially available rotating viscometer. In addition, the pressure-scanning capillary viscometer measured the viscosity of unadulterated whole blood without adding any anticoagulants.

Two-dimensional Stokes flow due to the line source and line sink of same strength in semi-infinite flow region with free surface is analysed using complex variable theory and conformal mapping. Surface tension effects are included while gravity is neglected. From the results of analysis, flow pattern and free surface shape are obtained and velocity distribution on the free surface is determined with 2 independent parameters Ca (capillary number) and h (non-dimensionalized distance between source and sink). When the location of the sink is above the source, velocity on the free surface converges and a cusp occurs on the free surface for the value of Ca above some critical capillary number.

Low Reynolds number, dilute, and surfactant-free bubble suspensions are prepared by mechanical mixing after introducing carbon dioxide bubbles into a Newtonian liquid, polyol. The apparent shear viscosity is measured with a wide-gap parallel plate rheometer by imposing a simple shear flow of capillary numbers(Ca) of the order of $10^{-2}$ ~ $10^{-1}$ and for various gas volume fractions ($\phi$). Effects of capillary numbers and gas volume fractions on the viscosity of polyol foam are investigated. At high capillary number, viscosity of the suspension increases as the gas volume fraction increases, while at low capillary number, the viscosity decreases as the gas volume fraction increases. An empirical constitutive equation that is similar to the Frankel and Acrivos equation is proposed by fitting experimental data. A numerical simulation for deformation of a single bubble suspended in a Newtonian fluid is conducted by using a newly developed two-dimensional numerical code using a finite volume method (FVM). Although the bubble is treated by a circular cylinder in the two dimensional analysis, numerical results are in good agreement with experimental results.

In recent years, special concerns have been raised about the safety assessment of foods and food ingredients derived from genetically modified organisms (GMOs). A growing number of countries establish regulations and laws for GMOs in order to allow consumers an informed choice. In this case, a lot of methods have been developed for the detection of GMOs. However, the reproducibility among methods and laboratories is still a problem. Consequently, it is still in great demand for more effective methods. In comparison with the gel electrophoresis, the capillary electrophoresis (CE) technology has some unique advantages, such as high resolution efficiency and less time consumption. Therefore, some CE-based methods have been developed for the detection of GMOs in recent years. All kinds of CE detection methods, such as ultraviolet (UV), laser induced fluorescence (LIF), and chemiluminescence (CL) detection, have been used for GMOs detection. Microchip capillary electrophoresis (MCE) methods have also been used for GMOs detection and they have shown some unique advantages.
