An experimental study and a modeling are peformed to investigate the pressure drop of combining junctions in two-phase flows. Experiments on tripod geometry used in a condenser or an evaporator, are conducted with inlet mass fluxes from 200 to$ 400 kg/m^2$s, and pipe diameters of 7 m and 9.52 m. The working fluid is R22. The result shows that the pressure drop increases as the quality does, but the effect of the increase of the pressure decreases when the diameter of a pipe increases. When the mass flux increases, the pressure drop linearly does. Furthermore, when the pipe diameter decreases, the pressure drop has a quadratic increase.

This paper presents roughness effects on flow characteristics and efficiency of multi-stage axial compressor using numerical simulation. which is carried out with a commercially available software, CFX-TASCflow. In this paper, the third of four stages of GE low pressure compressor is considered including me stator and rue rotor. Mixing-plane approach is adopted to model the interface between the stator and the rotor: it is appropriate for steady state simulation. First, a flat plate simulation was performed to validate how exact the numerical simulation predicts the roughness effect for smooth and rough walls. Then GE compressor model was calculated about at each roughness height. Concluding, very small roughness height largely affects the performance of compressor and the increasing rate of loss decrease as roughness height increase.

This paper introduces the part of efforts to develop a derivative type turbo-shaft engine from an existing baseline engine for multi-purpose helicopters targeting at 4000kg of take-off weight for 10-12 passengers. As a first step in meeting the development goal of increasing the output power to 840hp from 720hp with minimum modification, two stage axial compressor was redesigned to obtain the higher pressure ratio by removing the inlet guide vane and increasing the chord length. As a result, two stage axial compressors were designed to have the flow rate of 3.04 kg/s, the pressure ratio of 2.01 and the adiabatic efficiency of $85\%$. Its performance tests were carried out and verification of test results and redesign are under progress. Aerodynamic and structural analyses of the preliminary design are mainly described in this paper.

This study was performed to investigate the fluid flow characteristics, the temperature distribution, humidity and PMV(Predicted Mean Vote of thermal sensation) distributions of the 3-dimensional room with side wall exhaust. The finite volume method and turbulence k-$\varepsilon$ models with the SIMPLE computational algorithm are used. As the results of the three dimensional simulations, the region of exceeding Y=1.5m was high temperature and humidity. The inlet velocity and temperature were influenced to the floor strongly, and the room PMV was about -1.0 except the inlets.

Detailed modeling of PEMFCs has been getting considerable interest for predicting the fuel cell performance and also for use in various systems engineering activities. While CFD-based equipment models provide detailed analyses of the performance, they are very time-consuming to develop and run. The computations become quite complex when such models have to be embedded into the flowsheet-level optimization of fuel cell systems. In this paper, we present results about building and using NN-based reduced order models for quickly and repetitively predicting the flow of reactants in a PEMFC manifold.

The gas management system for a vertical launching system must be safely managed within a ship. The plenum and uptake are capable of containing and surviving a full-burning restrained firing without loss of gas management integrity. To secure the safety, the pressure characteristics with a supersonic under-expanded jet on a gas management system are numerically investigated using computational fluid dynamics. The results of present analysis and the preliminary design of the gas management system are described in this paper.

A Numerical simulation for the propulsion of axisymmetric body by contractive and dilative motion is carried out. The present analysis shows that a propulsive force can be obtained in highly viscous fluid by a contractive and dilative motion of axisymmetric body. An axisymmetric analysis code is developed with unstructured grid system for the simulation of complicated motion and geometry. The developed code is validated by comparing with the results of stokes approximation with the problem of uniform flow past a sphere in low Reynolds number($R_n=1$). The validated code is applied to the simulation of contractive and dilative motion of body. The simulation is extended to the analysis of waving surface with projecting part for finding out the difference of hydrodynamic performance according to the variation of waving surface configuration. The present study will be the basic research for the development of the propulsor of an axisymmetric micro-hydro-machine.

A fast and robust method of grid generation to multiple functions has been developed for flow analysis in three dimensional space. It is based on the Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline(NURBS) of an approximation method. Many of NURBS intrinsic properties are introduced and much more easily understood. The grid generation method, details of numerical implementation. examples of application, and potential extensions of the current method are illustrated in this paper. The object of this study is to develop the surface grid generation and the grid cluster techniques capable of resolving complex flows with shock waves, expansion waves, shear layers. The knot insert method of Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline seems well worked. In addition, NURBS has been widely utilized to generate grids in the computational fluid dynamics community. Computational examples associated with practical configurations have shown the utilization of the algorithm.

It is essential to analyze structural vibrations due to turbulent wall pressure fluctuations over a body surface which moves through a fluid, because the vibrations can be a severe source of noise affecting to passengers in airplanes and SONAR performance. Generally, this kind of problems have been solved for very simplified models, e.g. plates, which can be applied to the wavenumber domain analysis. In this paper, a finite element modeling of the walt pressure fluctuations is investigated, which can be applied to those over arbitrary smooth surfaces. It is found that the modeled wall pressure fluctuation at nodes becomes uncorrelated at higher frequencies and at lower flow speeds, and the response is over-estimated due to the aliased power. Then the frequency range available for uncorrelated loading model and two power correction schemes are presented.

In order to build and manage an ATM network effectively under several types of control methods, it is necessary to estimate the performance of the equipments in various viewpoints, especially of ATM multiplexer. As for the method to model the input stream into the ATM multiplexer, many researches have been done to characterize it by, such as, fluid flow, MMPP(Markov Modulated Poisson Process), or MMDP (Markov Modulated Deterministic Process). We introduce an MRP(Markov Renewal Process) to model the input stream which has proper structure to represent the burst traffic with high correlation. In this paper, we build a model for aggregated heterogeneous ON-OFF sources of ATM traffic by MRP. We make discrete time MR/D/1/B queueing system, whose input process is the superposed MRP and present a performance analysis by finding CLP(Cell Loss Probability). A simulation is done to validate our algorithm.
