Numerical analysis based on the 67 morphological characters from 28 populations of 6 species of Korean Rhus sensu lato (Anacardiaceae) was performed for the taxonomic delimitation. Based on the results of PCA with 47 quantitative characters, the sum of contributions for the total variance of three major principal components was 77,9% (PCl 35.2%, PC2 22.5% and PC3 20.2%). The sum of contributions for the total variance of three major principal components were 90,7% (PCl 37.7%, PC2 33.0% and PC3 20.0%) based on the results of PCA with 20 qualitative The characters. Two dimensional plotting from PCA results recognized six distinct species. UPGMA phenogram based on simple matching coefficient method recognized clear taxonomic delimitations among six taxa. On the cluster analysis, qualitative characters were more useful for grouping the species treated. Numerical analysis was very valuable to delimit the Korean taxa of Rhus s.l.

Capacitor-run single induction motors have the unbalanced elliptic rotating magnetic field so that it is difficult to analyze the characteristic and calculate the accurate slot leakage reactance of the rotor with the closed slot by using the lumped parameter. In this paper, the characteristic is analyzed by the symmetrical coordinate method in terms of the lumped parameter coupled with the numerical analysis. The secondary parameters are calculated by the one slot pitch boundary condition applying to Finite Element Method (FEM). The analysis results are compared with experimental ones.

In this study, the freezing process of L-shaped pipe exposed to the outside was investigated numerically by considering the mushy zone of freezing water. From the numerical results, it was found that the flow was outwardly directed due to the influence of the L-shaped bending part in the outside exposed part of the pipe, and the ice was formed in the shape of longitudinal corrugation on the wall surface of the pipe after the bending part. It is confirmed that this phenomenon is caused by the venturi effect due to the freezing as seen in connection with the velocity distribution in the pipe. It is found that the remelting phenomenon at the end of the freezing section occur simultaneously during the process of forming the ice in the pipe section. In regard of the factors affecting freezing, it was found that the thickness of the freezing layer is increased as the exposed pipe surface temperature is decreased, and the pipe surface temperature had a significant effect on the change of the freezing layer thickness. At the same time, it was found that the freezing layer becomes relatively thin when the water inflow rate is increased. This phenomenon was caused by reducing the exposure time of freezing water due to the vigorous flow convection of the water fluid.

In this study, the temperature change in an imitational biological tissue, when its surface is irradiated with bio-light, was measured by experiments. Using the experimental data, an equation for temperature as a function of time was developed in order to use it as a boundary condition in numerical studies for the model. The temperature profile was measured along the depth for several wavelengths and distances of the light source from the tissue. It was found that the temperature of the tissue increased with increasing wavelength and irradiation time; however, the difference in the temperatures with red light and near infrared light was not large. The numerical analysis results obtained by using the developed equation as boundary condition show good agreement with the measured temperatures.

To cope with the development of alternative fuels and international environmental regulations, this study provides a numerical analysis of the effects of composition and temperature changes of n-decane and ethanol on auto-ignition characteristics. CHEMKIN-PRO is used as the analysis program and the LLNL model is used as the reaction model. The numerical results show that the ignition delay time increases as the mole fraction of ethanol increases for temperatures below 1000 K, where low temperature reactions occur. Because of the high octane number of ethanol, the high percentage of ethanol delays the increase in the concentration of OH radicals that cause ignition. The oxygen concentration in the mixture is changed to apply the exhaust gas recirculation and a numerical analysis is then performed. As the oxygen concentration decreases, the total ignition delay time increases because the nitrogen gas acts as a thermal load in the combustion chamber.

A two dimensional analysis of the solidification phenomena has been simulated by IAD (Implicit Alternating Direction)method for L-shaped castings with external chills. The effect of chills has been studied with the variation of chill size, shape, and their materials, and also with the variation of the pouring temperature. Three kinds of cross-sectional shapes of chills such as triangle, square, and L-shape were chosen, and graphite, cast iron, and copper for their materials. It has been shown by the computation that the hot spot at the junction of L-shaped castings can not be removed by external chills, and that the distance between the inner corner and the hot spot on the line of symmetry, as well as the solidification time of castings depend only on VHC (Volumetric Heat Capacity).

Hydrogen is an green energy without pollution. Recently, fuel cell electric vehicle has been commercialized, and many studies have been conducted on hydrogen tanks for vehicles. The hydrogen tank for vehicles can be charged up to 70 MPa pressure. In this study, the change in filling time, pressure, and temperature for each hydrogen level in a 59 L hydrogen tank was predicted by numerical analysis. The injected hydrogen has the properties of real gas, the temperature is -40℃, and the mass flow rate is injected into the tank at 35 g/s. The initial tank internal temperature is 25℃. Realizable k-epsilon turbulence model was used for numerical analysis. As a result of numerical analysis, it was predicted that the temperature, charging time, and the mass of injected hydrogen increased as the residual capacity of hydrogen is smaller.

Drug delivery in human upper airway was studied by the numerical simulation of oral airflow. We created an anatomically accurate upper airway model from CT scan data by using a medical image processing software (Mimics). The upper airway was composed of oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, and second generations of branches. Thin sliced CT data and meticulous refinement of model surface under the ENT doctor's advice provided more sophisticated nasal cavity models. With this 3D upper airway models, numerical simulation was conducted by ANSYS/FLUENT. The steady inspiratory airflows in that model was solved numerically for the case of flow rate of 250 mL/s with drug-laden spray(Q= 20, 40, 60 mL/s). Optimal parameters for mechanical drug aerosol targeting of predetermined areas was to be computed, for a given representative upper airways. From numerical flow visualization results, as flow-rate of drug-laden spray increases, the drag spray residue in oral cavity was increased and the distribution of drug spray in trachea and branches became more homogeneous.

In this study, a longitudinal pitch effect on in-line tube bank heat transfer has been analyzed numerically. To verify the accuracy of the solver model and boundary conditions, global Nusselt number(Nu) and pressure drop across the 2 row tube bank are compared with the existing experimental correlations under 500 ~ 2,000 Reynolds number(Re) range. By changing transverse pitch($S_T$) or longitudinal pitch($S_L$) separately in tube bank, we're trying to identify the each effect on heat transfer. We found that the effect of transverse pitch can be accounted for Reynolds number evaluated with maximum velocity($V_{max}$) at the smallest flow area similar to most existing correlations. Variation of the longitudinal pitch($S_L$) has a greater impact on the heat transfer compared to the transverse pitch($S_T$). Overall Nusselt number increases with larger longitudinal pitch($S_L$), however individual Nusselt number of the tube row has significant difference after the first row.

The error in measuring temperature profiles by thermocouple inside boundary layer mostly comes from the conduction heat transfer of the thermocouple. The error is not negligible when the conductivity of the thermocouple is very high. In this study, the effect of conduction heat transfer of the thermocouple on the temperature profile inside boundary layer was examined by considering both free-stream velocity and a thermocouple position. The conduction error of an E-type thermocouple was investigated by numerical analysis of three-dimensional conjugate heat transfer for various velocity profiles of boundary layer and thermocouple positions.
