In this paper heat transfer characteristics in air-solid packed bed with spherical steel particles are studied experimentally. The effect of particle sizes (${\phi}1.5,\;{\phi}2.5,\;{\phi}3.96,\;{\phi}4.75,\;{\phi}5.95,\;{\phi}7.15$), bed sizes (${\phi}50,\;{\phi}60,\;{\phi}70,\;{\phi}80$) and mass flow rate are investigated. Also heat transfer effect of the bed with particles and without particles is compared in terms of heat transfer coefficient. As a result of this experiments, the following relation is obtained in the range of the Reynolds numbers 40 between 1500. $Nu= 0.8755\;Re^{0.6367}$ (40

This paper is to present the results of a comprehensive study on heat transfer in annuli with spirally corrugated inner tubes in the turbulent regime. Tube surface-temperature measurements were used to explain the enhancement phenomena in the annuli with several different corrugated tubes. Nusselt numbers were between 1.1 and 2 times the smooth annulus values. These enhancement values can be used to determine the appropriate range of applicability for spirally corrugated annuli.

The natural convection heat transfer within a trapezoidal enclosure with parallel cylindrical top and bottom walls at different temperatures and two adiabatic side walls are studied. A finite-difference method has been used to solve the governing equations numerically. The range of parameters studied herein are Prandtl number 0.7, aspect ratio from 0.5 to 4.0, Rayleigh number from $10^3$ to $3{\times}10^4$, enclosure tilt angle from 22.5 to 157.5 degrees. Mean and local Nusselt numbers are presented for discussing heat transfer characteristics within the enclosure. The heat balances for the hot and cold walls are differed by less than 1% for converged solutions, so these results appear to be reasonable.

Natural convection in the annulus between concentric inclined cylinders has been studied by the numerical analysis. Governing equations are numerically solved by means of successive over-relaxation methods for a range in orientation from horizontal to vertical. It is found that flow patterns can also be observed the co-axial double spiral. As the angle of inclination is increased, the center of the eddy is shifted into the lower part of annulus and flow structure is apparently changed. In the present study, the maximum local Nusselt numbers for the inner and outer walls at the vertical cylinder increase more than those at the horizontal cylinder by 71%, 42% respectively. Consequently the effect of inclination on the heat transfer is considerably large.

The chromosome numbers of bagrid catfish, Pseudobagrus fulvidraco was 52, nine pairs (No. 1 to 9) were metacentrics with the range of relative length 2.89~6.22 and arm ratio 1.09~1.58 ; thirteen pairs (No. 10 to 22) were submetacentrics with the range of relative length 2.88~5.88 and arm ratio 1.80~3.65 ; and all other pairs (No. 23 to 26) were acrocentrics with the range of relative length 2.63~3.30 and arm ratio 9.01~10.67, and fundamental number was 104. Heteromorphic sex chromosomes were not found. There was not exist significant difference in resultant erythrocyte measurements and parameters between female and male (p<0.05). The mean sizes of cell and nucleus, were $11.03{\times}9.67{\mu}m$ and $4.18{\times}3.66{\mu}m$ respectively. The number of erythrocytes of both females and males were $6{\sim}7{\times}10^5/ml$. Gill tissues from diploid individuals had cells with one or two nucleoli.

Hydromagnetic flow in a cavity under a uniform magnetic field is studied numerically. The cavity is comprised of four radiatively active surfaces. Due to large temperature difference inside a cavity, the radiative interaction between walls is taken into account. The coupled momentum and energy equations are solved by SIMPLER algorithm while the radiant heat exchanges are obtained by the finite volume method for radiation. A Wide range of Grashof numbers is examined as a controlling parameter. Resultant flow and heat transfer characteristics are investigated as well.

In this paper, we present two successful results from active controls of flows over a circular cylinder and a sphere for drag reduction. The Reynolds number range considered for the flow over a circular cylinder is 40-3900 based on the free-stream velocity and cylinder diameter, whereas for the flow over a sphere it is $10^{5}$ based on the free-stream velocity and sphere diameter. The successful active control methods are a distributed (spatially periodic) forcing and a high-frequency (time periodic) forcing. With these control methods, the mean drag and lift fluctuations decrease and vortical structures are significantly modified. For example, the time-periodic forcing at a high frequency (larger than 20 times the vortex shedding frequency) produces $50{\%}$ drag reduction for the flow over a sphere at $Re=10^{5}$. The distributed forcing applied to the flow over a circular cylinder results in a significant drag reduction at all the Reynolds numbers investigated.

The natural convection from an inclined ice flat plate immersed in cold water near its density maximum is studied numerically. Finite difference analysis has been performed for the heat and momentum transfer with respect to various inclined angles and ambient water temperatures. The results of the analysis are presented for ambient water temperatures, 1.0deg. C. leq. T／sub .inf.／.leq. 15.0deg. C and the inclined anales from 0deg to 60deg. They include velocity profiles, temperature profiles, melting velocities, and mean Nusselt numbers for entire flow fields, Generally, in the range of 0deg. C .leq.theta. .leq. 60.deg. C, the results show three distinct flow regimes, In the range of 1.0 deg. C .leq. T／sub .inf.／ .leq. 4.6 .deg. C, the greatest mean Nuselt number exists about 3.0deg. C. In the range of 5.7deg. C .leq. T／sub .inf.／ .leq. 15.0deg. C, mean Nuselt number increases as ambient water temperature increases. Also, the mean Nuselt number decreases as the inclined angle increases. This theoretical results are compared with previous experimental ones and multiple steady state ones.

Parabolized stability equations for compressible flows in general curvilinear coordinate system are derived to deal with a broad range of transition prediction problems on complex geometry. A highly accurate finite difference PSE code has been developed using an implicit marching procedure. Compressible and incompressible flat plate flow stability under two-dimensional and three¬dimensional disturbances has been investigated to test the present code. Results of the present computation are found to be in good agreement with the multiple scale analysis and DNS data. Stability calculation results by the present PSE code for compressible boundary layer at Mach numbers ranging from 0.02 to 1.5 are also presented and are again seen to be as accurate as the spectral method.

This study was performed to determine the optimum coagulant dosing for effective treatment of raw water in Chinyang lake. Removal rates of algae and characteristics of the water according to coagulants dosage were investigated by treatment with Microcystis aeruginosa, which is a kind of blue-green algae, to the raw water below 5NTU. The coagulants dosage for maximum removal rate of algae were 30 mg/$\ell$ of Alum, 30 mg/$\ell$ of PAC and 10 mg/$\ell$ of PACS, respectively. The removal rate of algae in 30 mg/$\ell$ of PAC was highest as 85% compared with the other treatments. At the point of maximum removal rate of algae, the removal rates of turbidity were 34%, 66% and 22% in Alum, PAC and PACS, respectively. Residual Al was decreased depend upon decreasing turtidity in water by treatment of Alum or PAC, but decreased depend upon increasing turbidity in water by treatment of PACS. The removal rate of ${Mn}_{2+}$ in water was high in the order of Alum, PAC and PACS treatment. And ${Fe}_{2+}$ in water was not changed by treatemnt of these coagulants. Particle numbers distributions according to the particle size of suspended solids that were not precipitated at 8 min. of settling time after treatment of coagulants dosage for the maximum removal rate of algae were investigated. Most of the particle sizes were below 30 $\mu$m and particle numbers distributions below 10 $\mu$m were 64%, 56% and 66% by treatment of Alum, PAC and PACS, respectively. Zeta potential was in the range of -6.1~-9.7 mV at optimum coagulants dosage for algae removal.
