An experimental study on the performance of a liquid electric component cooling system was performed. The thermal resistance and pressure drop at a heat sink were measured, for aluminum waterblocks with four different internal shapes, with either smooth surface, porous media filling, or with fins of 5 mm height, or of 7 mm height. The fins had 0.5 mm thickness, and the gap between the fins was 0.5 mm. The waterblock internal dimension was $36.5{\times}36.5{\times}7mm$. Compared with the waterblock with smooth surface, the thermal resistance reduction was 11%, 46%, and 42% for waterblocks with porous media filling, 5 mm, and 7 mm fins, respectively. A new dimensionless parameter was suggested to evaluate the waterblock performance, with the simultaneous consideration of thermal resistance and pressure drop. The performance of the waterblock with fins of 5 mm height was best by parameter.

This study describes the effect of T branch shape on internal flow characteristics inside itself. Continuity and three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equation have been used as governing equations for the numerical analysis. The T branch was modeled assuming that it is used for Alaska pipeline project which was planned to provide reliable transportation of natural gas from ANS to Alaska-Yukon border. Therefore the characteristics of T branch and operating condition of pipeline were from report of Alaska pipeline project. The nine T branch shapes were analyzed and the mass flow rate ratio between mainline and branch was assumed to be 0.95 : 0.05, 0.9 : 0.1, 0.85 : 0.15. The results shows that there are typical flow patterns in T branch and the shape of T branch makes some differences to the internal flow of branch rather than mainline.

To understand failure behavior of pipe thinned by flow accelerated corrosion, in this study, the pipe failure tests were performed on 102mm-Sch.80 carbon steel pipe with various local wall thinning shapes, and the failure mode, load carrying capacity, and deformability were investigated. The tests were conducted under loading conditions of 4-points bending and internal pressure. The experimental results showed that the failure mode of thinned pipe depended on magnitude of internal pressure and thinning length as well as loading direction and thinning depth and angle. The variation in load carrying capacity and deformability of thinned pipe with thinning length was determined by stress type appled to the thinning area and circumferential thinning angle. Also, the effect of internal pressure on failure behavior was dependent on failure mode of thinned pipe, and it promoted crack occurrence and mitigated local buckling at thinned area.

A hydraulic quick coupler is a component used to easily connect or disconnect pipes or hoses that transfer high pressure fluid without leakage in various mechanical devices. In this study, to obtain an optimal design of a 3/8" hydraulic quick coupler, the effect of different shapes of the internal piston on the internal flow characteristics of the coupler was analyzed and evaluated through numerical analysis based on computational fluid dynamics. Subsequently, the optimal shape design of the internal piston was obtained by comparing the flow characteristics results such as velocity distribution, temperature distribution, and the pressure drop of the hydraulic quick coupler.

Elbows with various shapes of local wall thinning were numerically analyzed by finite element method to get load-displacement curves and the maximum loads. Results were compared with the experimental data obtained by another study. Elastic-plastic analysis were carried out under the combined loading conditions of internal pressure and in-plane bending loads. Two types of bending loads were considered such as elbow opening mode and elbow closing mode. Also, two different wall thinning geometries were modeled. Wall thinning area located extrados or intrados of elbow inner surface was considered. Longitudinal and circumferential lengths of the thinning area and the thinned thickness were varied for analysis. The results showed that the maximum load of the wall-thinned elbow decreased with increasing of the circumferential thinning length and the thinned thickness in both of extrados and intrados thinning locations in both loading types. The maximum load obtained by the analysis were in good agreement with the experimentally measured maximum load with the same wall thinning type and dimensions. This supports accuracy of the analysis results obtained in this study.

This study aimed to enhance the durability by distributing the stress concentration at the contact and increasing the mechanical characteristics, as well as by changing the surface shape for LIP in the low-pressure seal among oil seals installed to the power steering of automotive. Accordingly, results were derived from comparisons and reviews with oil seals under the existing mass production by carrying out the performance tests after designs and productions are done with the addition of embo shapes on the surface of LIP in the low-pressure seal. As a result of this study, it has been identified that the durability of oil seals with the addition of embo shapes was enhanced with higher radial force and less variation in the internal diameter for the LIP. In addition, it was seen that the sealing ability for those oil seals is superior to the existing oil seals as their rotational torque values are less than those of the existing oil seals.

A micromixer is a component of a lab-on-a-chip or microfluidic device that mixes two or more chemicals together(convergence). The purpose of this study is to assess the performance of passive micromixer of various shapes. Six shapes of micromixers were compared and three dimensional modeling was carried out to have the same hydraulic diameter. The commercial code, ANSYS Fluent, was used to simulate the internal mixing flow. A numerical analysis method is described in detail in this paper. The performance of the micromixer was compared with the mixing index and pressure drop. Consequently, the CDM-8T shape showed reasonable mixing performance and relatively low pressure drop.

When a variety of repeated loads are given, most steel structures failed in much lower level of loads than static failure loads. In addition, bridge always includes the internal defects or discontinuities. from these, fatigue cracks initiates and can lead to sudden failure. Thus, in this study, tensile specimens by the cover plate shapes were used as the test specimens. The fatigue test was performed by constant amplitude fatigue loading and beach mark. From the results of this study, each specimen's fatigue section was observed. in addition, stress intensity factor at crack tip was calculated by using the Green's function which applied to discontinuous section where causing stress concentration. Therefore, the fatigue life of structural detail was investigated by adopting the theories of fracture mechanics. each specimen's crack shape is a semi-elliptical surface crack or center crack sheet, stress gradient correction factor, Fg is the most subjective of all stress intensity correction factors and fatigue life should be predicted by previous proposed function and finite element analysis.
