The burning characteristics of interacting droplets with internal circulation in a convective flow are numerically investigated at various Reynolds numbers. The transient combustion of 2-dimensionally arranged droplets, both the fixed droplet distances of 5 radii to 40 radii horizontally and 4 radii to 24 radii vertically, is studied. The results obtained from the present numerical analysis reveal that the transient flame configuration and retardation of droplet internal motion with the horizontal or vertical droplet spacing substantially influence lifetime of interacting droplets. At a low Reynolds number, lifetime of the two droplets with decreasing horizontal droplet spacing increases monotonically, whereas their lifetime with decreasing vertical droplet spacing decreases due to flow acceleration. This flow acceleration effect is reversed when the vertical droplet spacing is smaller than 5 radii in which decreasing flame penetration depth causes the reduction of heat transfer from flame to droplets. At a high Reynolds number, however, lifetime of the first droplet is hardly affected by either the horizontal droplet spacing or flow acceleration effect. Lifetime with decreasing vertical droplet spacing increases due to reduction of flame penetration depth. Lifetime of interacting droplets exhibits a strong dependence on Reynolds number, the horizontal droplet spacing and the vertical droplet spacing and can be con-elated well with these conditions to that of single burning droplet.

In this study, Urban Climate Simulation was performed by 3-Dimensional Urban Canopy Model. The characteristics of urban climate was analyzed combining artificial land coverage, building size, heat production from the air conditioning and topographic conditions as physical variables which affects urban climate characteristics. The results are as follows. (1)The aspects of the urban climatal change is derived to be related to the combination of the building coverage ratio, building height and shading area. (2)Whole heat generation was influenced by the convective sensible heat at the lower building height and by the artificial heat generation at the higher one over 20-story building influence to some extent of the building coverage ratio. The effect of the altitude is not more considerable than the other variables as below $1^{\circ}C$ of the air temperature.

In this paper, cooling characteristics of seeker windows were examined using the Sinda-Fluint software. Various cooling methods were considered to satisfy the limit temperature of the cooled seeker window which would be exposed to excessive aerodynamic heating conditions by varying coolant type and mass flow rate of coolant. Due to the enhanced heat transfer between the coolant and the seeker window, internally cooled seeker window which uses liquid coolant showed lowered temperature distribution in the window compared to internally cooled seeker window which uses gas coolant. External film cooled seeker window also showed good cooling characteristics because it reduces the convective heat flux to the seeker window fundamentally. It was also confirmed that the temperature and the temperature gradient of seeker windows were significantly reduced for the cases which use external film cooling additionally to the gas and liquid cooled seeker window.

The effects of thermal stratification on the flow past a heated circular cylinder with various heating rates were examined in a wind tunnel. Turbulent intensities, r.m.s.values of temperature and turbulent convective heat flux distributions in the cylinder wakes with and without thermal stratification were measured by using a hot-wire and cold-wire combination probe. The phase averaging method was also used to estimate coherent contributions to the turbulent flow field in the near wake. The results show that the scalar mixing process is very different according to the mean temperature fields especially in the upper part of the wake. The coherent structure of the temperature field makes a large contribution to the time mean value like velocity components. However, the coherency of the temperature fluctuation is very different with the change of mean temperature fields, though the velocity coherent motions are quite similar in all experimental conditions.

A mathematical model was proposed to predict the fate of a priority organic pollutant, anthracene, accidently spilled into a stream. The model consists of 6 differential equations with 5 input variables and 9 rate constants. Volatilization, biodegradation, adsorption/desorption, photodegradation as well as the convective inputs and outputs are included in the model. As a result of a series of dynamic simulations and sensitivity analyses under the given conditions, the concentrations of the organic chemical could be predicted within a detection limit in the stream. It was also suggested that the rate constant for diffusion/transport and adsorption rate constant are the most influential ones for predicting the chemical conentrations in dissolved and particulate phase. The model proposed appears to be a useful tool for assessing chemical spills.

Experimental investigations have been made to study the double-diffusive nature of convection of an initially stratified salt-water solution due to heating from below in a rotating cylindrical cavity. The objective is to examine the flow phenomena and the heat transfer characteristics according to the changes in temperature gradient, concentration gradient and rotating velocity of cavity. Thermal and solutal boundary conditions at side wall are adiabatic and impermeable, respectively. The top and bottom plate are maintained each at constant temperature and concentration. The cavity is put into a state of solid body rotation. Like the stationary case, the types of initially-formed flow pattern are classified into three regimes depending on the effective Rayleigh number and Taylor number; stagnant flow regime, single mixed-layer flow regime and successively formed multi-mixed layer flow regime. At the same effective Rayleigh number, the number of initially-formed mixed layer and its growth rate decrease as the effect of rotation increases. The temperature and concentration profiles are both uniform in each layer due to convective mixing in the layered-flow regime, but look both liner in stagnant flow regime and single mixed-layer flow regime. At the interface between adjacent layers, the temperature changes smoothly but the concentration changes rapidly.

This work discusses the numerical analysis, the design and experimental test of the SMA actuator along with its capabilities and limitations. Convective heating and cooling using water actuate the SMA(Shape memory alloy) element of the actuator. The fuel such as propane, having a high energy density, is used as the energy source for the SMA actuator in order to increase power and energy density of the system, and thus in order to obviate the need for electrical power supplies such as batteries. The system is composed of a pump, valves, bellows, a heater(burner), control unit and a displacement amplification device. The experimental test of the SMA actuator system results in 150 MPa stress(force : 1560 N) with $3\%$ strain and 0.5 Hz. actuation frequency. The actuation frequency is compared with the prediction obtained from numerical analysis. For the designed SMA actuator system, the results of numerical analysis were utilized in determining design parameters and operating conditions.

The fabrication method of aspheric lens is changed from machining to press molding so as to improve the productivity. In the case of the press molding method, the temperature control of the molding die is most impotent, because the temperature of each molding die determines the quality of lens. But any practical method for direct measuring of the lens temperature and the die internal temperature is yet unknown. Besides, in the case of the press molding system in which the heating and pressing and cooing of a die is done at one work station, the cycle time for the system is yet too long. The paper shows an improved structure of radiant sequential system in which the heating and pressing and cooing of dies is done at individual work station so as to cut down the cycle time. To know the die internal temperature, numerical results are given using ANSYS. An experimental radiant sequential system is developed and tested. Finally, the Taguchi method is applied in order to optimize the setting conditions of individual work station.

The present study has been carried out to elucidate the unsteady temperature characteristics of a refrigerator near gasket region by measuring time dependent temperature measurements. From the measured values of the time dependent temperature inside and outside region of a refrigerator, one could see that the temperature varies periodically with time from the effect of refrigerator operation. The measured mean temperatures at the wall had great different value from the previous other research results conducted by numeric ofheat transfer using improperfheat transfer boundary condition. The present study could give the experiment ofdata for the properfnumeric ofheat transfer an oysis and suggest more accuratefheat transfer boundary conditions for the inside and outside of a refrigerator.

A numerical and experimental study has been performed on natural convection heat transfer from a horizontal annulus with spacers. The mode of heat transfer in the annulus is changed from conduction to convection at Ra = 10$^{3}$. By increasing wall conductivity, mean Nusselt number is apparently increased at $K_{w}$/K$_{f}$ .leg. 48, but at /K$_{w}$/K$_{f}$ > 48, slightly increased for no spacers, and decreased for vertical spacers and horizontal spacers. The mean Nusselt number can be represented in an exponential function of Grashof number at all conditions. The characterics of natural convection heat transfer show similiarity for no spacers and vertical spacers but show difference for horizontal spacers. The presence of the horizontal spacers increased the convective heat transfer by an average 6 percent over that for the no forced cooling to outer cylinder. The maximum local Nusselt number appears at .theta. = 150.deg. in a conducting tube and .theta. = 30.deg. in an outer cylinder for vertical spacers, and appears at .theta. = 180.deg. in a conducting tube and .theta. = 0.deg. in an outer cylinder for horizontal spacers.spacers.
