Three-dimensional blood flow in the sac of the KTAH(Korean total artificial heart) is simulated using fluid-structure interaction model. The aim of this study is to delineate the three-dimensional unsteady-blood flow in the sac of KTAH. Incompressible viscous flow is assumed for blood using the assumption of Newtonian fluid. The numerical method employed in this study is the finite element software called ADINA. Fluid-structure interaction model between blood and sac is utilized to represent the deformation of the sac by the rigid moving actuator. Three-dimensional geometry of cactus type KTAH is chosen for numerical model with prescribed pressure boundary condition on the sac surface. Blood flow is generated by the motion of moving actuator and strongly interacts with the solid material surrounding blood. High shear stress is observed mainly near the inlet and outlet of the sac.

This paper reports an experimental study around a module about forced air flow by blower($35{\times}35{\times}6mm^3$) in portable PC(10mm high, 200mm wide, and 235mm long). The channel inlet flow velocity has been varied between 0.26, 0.52 and 0.78m/s. The power input to the module is 4Wthis report, particular attention is directed to the fluid flow and adiabatic wall temperature($T_(ad)$) around a module which is under fluid mechanical and thermal influences of the module. The fluid flow around a module was visualized using PIV system. Liquid crystal thernography is used to determine the adiabatic wall temperature around a heated module on an acrylic board. Plots of $T_(ad)$ (or F) show marked effects of dispersion of thermal wake near the module.

A low-order potential based boundary element method is applied for the prediction of the performance of flapped rudders as well as all-movable rudders in steady inflow. In order to obtain a reasonable solution at large angles of attack, the location of the trailing wake sheet is determined by aligning freely with the local flow. The effect of the wake sheet roll-up is also included with use of a high order panel method. The flow in the gap of a flapped rudder is modeled as Couette flow and its effect is introduced into the kinematic boundary conditions for flux at both the inlet and the outlet of the gap. In order to validate the present method, the method is applied for a series of rudders and the computational results on forces and moments are compared with experimental data. The effect of the gap size on the forces and moments is also presented.

Eddy Current is one of ways to make heat using rotational energy of wind turbine rotor. Four difference arrays of permanent magnets around rotor surface are used to generate heat using eddy current in this study. For the evaluation of heating performance, new test rig is prepared to measure water flow and temperatures in the inlet and outlet of the eddy current heat generator. In the test, torque and rotational speed are also measured in the motor driven system, and evaluated if the torque is matched with it of wind turbine rotor or not. It will be shown that the eddy current heat generator can be applied to real urban wind energy systems in this study.

Condebelt drying provides opportunities not only of improving the strength properties and saving of drying energy but also of reducing the basis weight or increasing the utilization of recycled furnishes. In this paper general overview of the Condebelt press drying will be described and the effects of the process variables in Condebelt press drying including drying temperature, pressure, drying time and moisture content of the sheets on the paper properties is discussed. The experiment was performed with a static rig and Korean OCC was used as a principal raw material. Significant improvement in sheet density, compression strength, tensile strength, surface smoothness, etc. was obtained when Condebelt drying was applied. Control of pressure and inlet dryness was found to be very critical in improving sheet properties. Mill experiences from Dong Il Paper Mfg. Co., Ltd is briefly described.

In the present paper, the effect of the location of stern planes on the flow entering the submarine propeller is studied numerically. These planes are mounted on three longitudinal positions on the submarine stern. The results are presented considering the flow field characteristics such as non-dimensional pressure coefficient, effective drag and lift forces on the stern plane, and the wake flow formed at the rear of the submarine where the propeller is located. In the present study, the submarine is studied at fully immersed condition without considering the free surface effects. The numerical results are verified with the experimental data. It is concluded that as the number of planes installed at the end of the stern section along the submarine model increases, the average velocity, width of the wake flow and its turbulence intensity formed at the end of the submarine enhance. This leads to a reduction in the non-uniformity of the inlet flow to the propulsion system.

Flow fields of a transonic centrifugal compressor are calculated using the commercial CFD code, CFX-TASCflow. Due to the transonic inlet condition, interactions between the shock wave and boundary layers and between the shock wave and tip leakage vortices generate complex flow structures and extra losses. The calculated results show that strong secondary flows due to high curvature and high rotational speed of the impeller. And streamlines near suction surface show that strong radially upward flow develops after the shock between the leading edge locations of main blade and splitter.

Drawing is one of the oldest metal forming operations and has major industrial significance. This process allows excellent surface finishes and closely controlled dimensions to be obtained in long products that have constant cross sections. In drawing of the high carbon steel wire, exit speeds of several hundreds meters per minute are very common. Drawing is usually conducted at room temperature using a number of passes or reductions through consequently located dies. In multi-stage drawing process like this, temperature rise in each pass affects the mechanical properties of final product such as bend, twist and tensile strength. In this paper, therefore, to estimate the wire temperature in multi-stage wire drawing process, wire temperature prediction method was mathematically proposed. Using this method, temperature rise at deformation zone as well as temperature drop between die exit and the next die inlet were calculated.

An experimental study was carried out in a cavity with upper channel and square heat surface by visualization equipment with Mach-Zehnder interferometer and laser apparatus. The visualization system consists of 2-dimensional sheet light by Argon-Ion Laser with cylindrical lens and flow picture recording system. Instant simultaneous velocity vectors at whole field were measured by 2-D PIV system(CACTUS'2000). Obtained result showed various flow patterns. Severe unsteady flow fluctuation within the cavity are remarkable and sheared mixing layer phenomena are also found at the region where inlet flow is collided with the counter-clockwise rotating main primary vortex. Photographs of Mach-Zehnder are also compared in terms of constant heat flux.

In this study a parametric analysis for the rewetting temperature was made with 572 data obtained from the single tube experiment. The rewetting temperature was also evaluated by measuring the vaporization time of a liquid drop on a hot surface at the elevated pressures. The results showed that the rewetting temperature increased with flooding rate, inlet subcooling pressure and initial wall temperature, and decreased with increasing axial elevation. Based on the results obtained, the rewetting temperature correlation was suggested. From the comparison of correlated rewetting temperatures with measured values, it showed that the correlated values fell within .+-.5% error from the measured values.
