This study focused on the optimization of the illumination method for efficient use of light energies in a photobioreactor. In order to investigate the effect of radiator position, a model simulation study was carried out using Synechococcus sp. PCC 6301 and an internally radiating photobioreactor as a model system. The efficiency of light transfer in a photobioreactor was analyzed by estimating the average light intensity in a photobioreactor. The simulation result, indicate that there exists an optimal position of internal radiators, and that the optimal position varies with radiator number and cell concentration. When light radiators are placed at the optimal position, the average light intensity is about 30% higher than that obtained by placing radiators at the circumstance or center of a photobioreactor. The method presented in this work may be useful for improving light transfer efficiency in a photobioreactor.

In this paper, we proposed vertically structured radiator for increasing bandwidth and gain of mobile phone internal antenna. The proposed antenna has vertically structured radiator instead of planar structured radiator to improve the antenna characteristics for GSM850/900 and DCS1800/PCS1900 bands. The antenna improve bandwidth of low band with 28 % than planar structured radiator. and also, improve bandwidth of high band with 14 %, efficiency 31.80~86.36 %, average gain -4.956~-0.617 dBi on the GSM850/900 and DCS1800/PCS1900 bands. These results are good performance among the small antenna with vertically structured radiator for increasing bandwidth and gain.

The purpose of this study was to numerically analyze the heat flow characteristics of an automotive radiator. Heat flow analyses were conducted on the cooling water and outdoor air of the radiator, as well as the temperature distribution of the cooling water after heat transfer. The results of the study revealed that neither heat transfer nor radiator volume was affected by the position of the inlet of cooling water. However, temperature distribution was affected by the position of both the inlet and outlet. In case of heat transfer, three models underwent about 158 kW of heat transfer. The difference in cooling water temperature was about $10^{\circ}C$. In case of pressure drop, the core external air side was reduced to about 1,375 Pa, and the internal cooling water side about 14,570 Pa.

In this work, the structural integrity was investigated of the structural design results of internal components for the aircraft engine. The radiator and intercooler were combined with the internal components of the engine. Therefore, the safety of the radiator and intercooler was investigated during flight conditions. The structural integrity was evaluated through structural analysis, using the finite element analysis method. The acceleration load for structural design and analysis was considered. The structural safety evaluation found the structural design results to be valid.

Using a commercial flow-analysis code VSAERO, a method to predict the drag of an automobile induced by the intake air of the cooling system has been devised. Given the pressure loss coefficient across the radiator, which varies with the radiator shape and the local Re, a simplified model of the internal flow is coupled with VSAERO to find the mass-flow rate through the car. The flow rate is obtained iteratively and that, in turn, gives the drag associated with this flow, which essentially is the momentum carried by the drained air. The results of a few sample cases are presented for two front-end shapes in combination with varying radiator frontal area.

In this paper, the quad-band antenna for mobile handsets is proposed and developed. The operating frequency bands include GSM(880 MHz${\~}$960 MHz), GPS(1,575 MHz$\pm$10 MHz), DCS(1,710 MHz${\~}$l,880MHz), and PCS(1,850 MHz${\~}$l,990 MHz). The proposed antenna consists of a feed line, a shorting post, and a radiating element of the feed loop. The multi-band operation is achieved by using the fundamental and higher resonant modes of the radiating element. Based on analysis of the current distribution on the radiator, the resonant frequency of each mode can be adjusted by adding the different sizes of slots on the radiator. The radiator of the feed loop is designed to be symmetrical so that the energy is symmetrically distributed on the radiator, which results in omni-directional radiation pattern. The ground plane under the radiator is removed in order to improve the bandwidth. The measured impedance bandwidths are $10.1\%$ in GSM band(VSWR<2.5), $26.8\%$ in GPS band, and DCS/US-PCS bands(VSWR<2.5), respectively. The maximum gains on the H-plane of the fabricated antenna are measured about -0.37 dBi${\~}$2.55 dBi for all operating frequency bands.

In this study hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are used to make a pollution-free engine which is a closed system with the components such as a combustor, two turbines, a radiator and a compressor. One of the two turbines produces main power, and the other is used to drive a compressor to compress unburned gases and to return them to the combustor. Some of the water from the radiator is pumped to cool down the internal wall of the combustor and to be used as a working fluid which expands from liquid state to vapor state to get more expansion work. The possibility of operating the whole system is checked by the thermodynamic analysis to make the closed engine system. The calculations in the thermal analysis are based on the Brayton cycle and the Rankine cycle. The closed system in this study shows similar efficiency as usual internal combustion engines, but it produces water only without air pollution such as $NO_x$ and soot.

The space reactor is the primary energy supply for future space vehicles and space stations. The radiator is one of the essential parts of a space reactor. Therefore, the research on radiators can improve the heat dissipation power, reduce the quality of radiators, and make the space reactor smaller. Based on MOOSE multi-physics numerical calculation platform, a simulation program for the combination of heat pipe and fin at the end of heat pipe radiator is developed. It is verified that the calculation result of this program is accurate and the calculation speed is fast. Analyze the heat transfer characteristics of the combination with heat pipe and fin, and obtain its internal temperature field. Based on the calculation results, the influence of structural parameters on the heat dissipation power is analyzed. The results show that when the fin width is 0.25 m, fin thickness is 0.002 m, condensing section length is 0.5425 m and heat pipe radius is 0.014 m, the power-mass ratio is the highest. When the temperature is 700K-900K, the heat dissipation power increases 41.12% for every 100K increase in the operating temperature. Smaller fin width and thinner fin thickness can improve the power-mass ratio and reduce the radiator quality.

The typical operating temperature of an automotive fuel cell is lower than that of an internal combustion engine, which necessitates a refined strategy for thermal management. In particular, the performance of the cooling module has to be higher for a fuel cell system because the temperature difference between the fuel cell and the surrounding is lower than in the case of the internal combustion engine. Even though the cooling system of an automotive fuel cell determines the operating temperature and temperature distribution of the fuel cell, it has attracted little research attention. This study presents the mathematical model of a cooling system for an automotive fuel cell system using Matlab/$Simulink^{(R)}$. In particular, a radiator model is developed for design optimization from the development stage to the operating stage for an automotive fuel cell. The cooling system model comprises a fan, pump, and radiator. The pump and fan model have an empirical relation, and the dynamics of the pump and fan are only explained by motor dynamics. The basic design study was conducted, and the geometric setup of the radiator was investigated. When the control logic was applied, the pump senses the coolant inlet temperature and the fan senses the coolant out temperature. Additionally, the cooling module is integrated with the fuel cell system model so that the performance of the cooling module can be investigated under realistic operating conditions.
