The purpose of this work is to predict the low frequency aero-acoustic noise generated from the horizontal axis wind turbine, NREL Phase VI for the whole operating conditions of various wind speeds using large eddy simulation and Ffowcs-Williams and Hawkings model provided in the commercial code, FLUENT. Because there is no experimental data about wind turbine noise, we first of all compared aerodynamic performance such as shaft torque and power with experimentally measured value. Performance results show a good agreement with experimental data within about 0.8%. As the wind speed increases, the overall sound pressure level and the sound pressure level by the quadrupole and dipole source show a increasing tendency. Also, sound pressure level is proportional to $r^{-2}$ in the near field and $r^{-1}$ in the far field according to the increase of distance from the center of hub of wind turbine. According to 2 times increase of distance, sound pressure level is reduced by about 6dB.

The 4-pole linear homopolar synchronous motor (LHSM), so called linear inductor motor, is composed of the figure-of-eight shaped 3-phase armature windings, DC field windings, and the segmented secondary with the transverse bar track. To reduce the calculation time, the simplified 3D finite element model with equivalent reluctance and/or permanent magnet is presented. To obtain a clear understanding, propriety and usefulness of the developed model, we compare with the results of simplified 3D FEA, general 3D FEA and test. Consequently, the results of simplified and 3D FEM analysis are nearly identical, but much larger than that of static test at d-axis armature excitation. Therefore the improved FEA model, such as full model with half slot, is needed for the precise analysis.

This paper describes a computer model of the secondary arc associated with single pole switching scheme to use in system simulation studies. The computer model is based on the mathematical model described by A.T.Johns, et.al[3], and is implemented by the EMTDC which is similar to the Electro Magnetic Transient Program(EMTP). Simulation results using the computer model compare with a previous simulation and field test results.

The temperature rise of GIS (Gas Insulated Switchgear) busbar system is a vital factor that affects its performance. In this paper, a two-dimensional model is presented by commercial code CFX11 for the evaluation of natural convection in the busbar system. In the model, SF6 (Sulfur Hexafluoride) is used to insulate the high voltage device and improves the heat transfer rate. The power losses of a busbar calculated by the magnetic field analysis are used as the input data to predict the temperature rise by the nature convection analysis. The heat-transfer coefficients on the boundaries are analytically calculated by applying the Nusselt number considering material property and model geometry for the natural convection. The temperatures of the tank and conductors from CFX simulation and the experiment were compared. The results show a good agreement. In the future, we will calculate the 3-D model and try to reduce the temperature by adjusting some dimensional parameters.

Quality management is essential to achieve the desired quality throughout a program. Especially in phase of research and development(R&D) of a program, that is an effective and efficient way to achieve the quality goals and improve the quality of a program in total life cycles. For applying the quality management to a R&D program, characteristics of the program should be considered in various aspects. In this study, the characteristics of developments of defense weapon systems were analyzed and the meaning of quality in that field was defined. And then, application methods of the quality management were established and the quality management model with four view points(external, organization, programs, practices) was proposed. In addition, detailed tasks of the quality management activities were described and some examples of applying the model were introduced.

Characteristics of kerosine spray combustion were investigated at various swirl condition. PDPA(Phase Doppler Particle Analysis) was used to measure the droplet sizes and velocities. R-type(Platinum vs. Platinum-13%rhodium) thermocouple was used to measure the temperature of combustion flow field inside model combustor. A visualization of spray and flame was performed with still camera. As swirl number increases due to increase of swirl vane angle, the spray and the flame were developed to radial direction rapidly. When swirl number is small, the configuration of flame is cone type, but swirl number is large, the configuration of flame is cylindrical type due to enhanced mixing by the transport of swirl momentum.

A water driven ejector loop was designed and constructed for air absorption. The used ejector was horizontally installed in the loop and annular water jet at the throat entrained air through the circular pipe placed at the center of the ejector. Wide range of water flow rate was provided using two kinds of pumps in the loop. The tested range of water flow rate was 100${\ell}$ /min to 1,000 ${\ell}$/min. Two-phase flow inside the ejector loop was simulated by CFD analysis. Homogeneous particle model was used for void fraction prediction. Water and air flow rates and pressure drop through the ejector were automatically recorded by using the LabView based data acquisition system. Flow characteristics and air bubble velocity field downstream of the ejector were investigated by two-phase flow visualization and PIV measurement based on bubble shadow images. Overall performance of the two-phase ejector predicted by the CFD simulation agrees well with that of the experiment.

I consider the structure of steady wave system which is admitted by the continuum equations for materials that undergo phase transformations with exothermic chemical reaction. In particular, the dynamic phase front structures between liquid and gas phases, and solid and liquid phases are computationally investigated. Based on the one-dimensional continuum shock structure analysis, the present approach can estimate the nano-width of waves that are present in combustion. For illustration purpose, n-heptane is used in the evaporation and condensation analysis and HMX is used in the melting and freezing analysis of energetic materials of interest. On-going effort includes extension of this idea to include broad range of liquid and solid fuels, such as rocket propellants.

The retention mechanism of Ni(II)-${\alpha}$-isonitroso-${\beta}$-diketone imine chelates in reversed-phase HPLC has been studied by examining the effect of temperature, mobile phase composition in acetonitrile-water mixture, and molecular structure on retention. The empirical retention equation was investigated to evaluate the properties of S (hydrophilic index). The value of the S index of the Ni(II) chelates decrease with the increasing column temperature and a linear relationship between S and log $k{_w}^{\prime}$ has been found. The results showed that the S index is influenced by the interaction between Ni(II) chelates and mobile phase. Molecular properties, van der Waals molar volume, polarizability and dipole moment, of the Ni(II) chelates were calculated by Cerius 2 program and the calculations were performed at Universal Force Field (UFF) model. The S value and log $k{_w}^{\prime}$ increase with decreasing the dipole moment of Ni(II) chelates.

The effective elasticity and conduction of composite materials containing arbitrarily oriented multiple phases has been analyzed using the concept of orientation-dependent average fields and concentration factors. The analysis provided closed form expressions for the effective stiffnesses and conductivities. Under the prescribed boundary conditions, the concentration factors were evaluated by the equivalent inclusion principle, through which the interaction between various phases is approximated by the Mori-Tanaka mean-field approximation. SiC particulate(SiC$_{p}$) reinforce aluminum(Al) matrix composites were fabricated and their elastic constants and electrical conductivities were measured together with a careful study of their microstructure. The measured properties showed a systematic anisotropy and this behavior could be attributed to the preferred orientation of SiC$_{p}$. The theoretical model developed was applied to the computation of the anisotropic properties of these composites. Both two-phase and three-phase composites were considered based on the microstructural information. The SiC$_{p}$ was modeled as an ellipsoid with planar random orientation distribution in the extruded Al/SiC$_{p}$ composites. The effect of extraneous phase such as intermetallic compounds was also investigated.tigated.
