Jet Loop Reactor(JLR), in which a two-phase nozzle is installed, is the new design technique for the treatment of high concentration wastewater by accelerating of oxygen contacting between substrate and surrounding bacteria. This numerical study of the two phase jet flow was conducted to find the optimum design of JLR. It was shown that there was a minimum velocity in the nozzle for continuous circulation of wastewater. The optimum location and the size of the draft tube for continuous circulation were examined. It was certain that the smaller the air size is, the more the effect of the mixing increases. The relation between the mixing effect and the turbulence was confirmed.

Wall thinning of pipeline in power plants occurs mainly by flow acceleration corrosion (FAC), cavitation erosion (C/E), liquid droplet impingement erosion (LDIE). Wall thinning by FAC and C/E has been well investigated; however, LDIE in plant industries has rarely been studied due to the experimental difficulty of setting up a long injection of highly-pressurized air. In this study, we designed a long-term experimental system for LDIE and investigate the behavior of LDIE for three kinds of materials (A106B, SS400, A6061). The main control parameter was the air-water ratio (${\alpha}$), which was defined as the volumetric ratio of water to air (0.79, 1.00, 1.72). In order to clearly understand LDIE, the spraying velocity (${\nu}$) of liquid droplets was controled larger then 160 m/s and the experiments were performed for 15 days. Therefore, this research focuses relation between erosion rate and air-water ratio on the various pipe-flow materials. NPP(nuclear power plant)'s LDIE prediction theory and management technique were drawn from the obtained data.

An experimental study is carried out to investigate the near-wake characteristics of a NACA 0018 foil with a flat plate. Two-frame grey-level cross correlation PIV method is used to measure the local flow characteristic around a pitch damping foil to control the vertical motion of high speed crafts in a circulating water channel. The analysis also includes angles of attack 10 and 20 degrees respectively. Reynolds number $Re{\fallingdotseq}3.5{\times}10^4$ based on the chord length(C=100mm) of NACA0018 has been applied during the whole experiments. The distance between the foil and the flat plate is D/C=0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 respectively. The channel effect according as the distance between the foil and the flat plate has a close relation with the velocity distributions around the foil. In the wake of 20-degree of attack, the complex turbulent flow and a thick boundary layer are formed due to the processes of vortex generation and dissipation.

Dohne (1944) has studied the consumption of air during phonation in patients with dysphonia and Arnold (1955, 1958) reported that the maximum phonation time is frequently reduced to a few seconds in paralytic dysphonia. Also, Nishikawa investigated the relation among the vital capacity, maxium phonation time, caculated mean flow rate and various vocal characteristics in patients with hoarseness. Authors have studied the aerodynamic characteristics of the vocal tract in the following aspects, using 9 L. Respirometer made in Collins Inc.; 1. Maximum phonation time 2. Maximum phonation volume 3. Mean flow rate 4. Vocal velocity index

Horizontal air-jet effect has been utilized in some air conditioning systems in order to control the contaminated air indoor. In the present study, the flow and heat transfer of the contaminated air from a range hood system has been investigated with or without horizontal air-jet effect when the hood fan is on or off. For the present numerical experiment, PAT Flow code has been used. From the present numerical simulations, it has been shown that the air jet of a range hood generates coanda effect confining the contaminated air in a certain region. Furthermore, the qualitative relation between the flow rate of the capture air jet and the distribution pattern of the contamination has been discussed.

The objectives in the present study are to investigate that the enhancement heat transfer was experimentally measured and was compared with the acoustic pressure obtained by numerical analysis. From the results of the present study, a strong Fluid motion initiated by ultrasonic vibrations can affect heat and mass transfer. This phenomenon. called acoustic streaming, clearly observed by PIV measurement leads to increase in velocity of a Fluid which is a crucial physical concept to explain the enhancement heat transfer. The heat transfer coefficient is increased with increase in the ultrasonic intensities. The largest enhancement heat transfer (about 26%) is measured at the ultrasonic intensity of 300W. Acoustic streaming results from sudden acoustic pressure variations in the liquid. The results of numerical analysis reveal that acoustic pressure is increased by 59.5% at the ultrasonic intensity of 300W. The higher acoustic pressure near four ultrasonic transducers develops more intensive flow destroying the flow instability. Also, the profiles of acoustic pressure variation are consistent with those of enhancement heat transfer.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between the centrality and the research performance by conducting the social network analysis for the social science journal in the last 10 years. As a result of the relationship analysis, the correlation between centrality and research productivity was highly correlated in most groups, but the impact factor and frequency of citations were not significant. In relation with the comprehensive research such as a H-index, middle productive group correlation was more significant than the upper productive group.

Objectives : We find that the reaction force on the elbow joint during elbow flexion, extension with and without an object in the hand can be calculated the equations of motion that the sum of the torque and the sum of the force acting on the elbow joint must be zero and (moment of inertia x angular acceleration) and (mass x acceleration). Methods : we have calculated the equations of motion (${\Sigma}F=0$, ${\Sigma}{\tau}=0$, ${\Sigma}F=ma$, ${\Sigma}{\tau}=Ia$) to investigate the reaction force on the elbow joint during elbow flexion, extension by means of the simplified free-body technique for coplanar forces. Results : we found that the reaction force on the elbow joint during elbow flexion, extention as constant acceleration motion is more than constant velocity, static motion. Also, we found that the relation between during flexion and during extension like this ; $J_{flexion}$ < $J_{extension}$.

In this paper, a method to estimate ice loads as a function of the buttock angle of an icebreaker is presented with respect to polycrystalline freshwater ice. Ice model tests for different buttock angles and impact velocities are carried out to investigate ice pressure loads and tendencies of ice pressure loads in terms of failure modes. Experimental devices were fabricated with an idealized icebreaker bow shape, and medium-scale ice specimens were used. A dry-drop machine with a freefall system was used, and four pressure sensors were installed at the bottom to estimate ice pressure loads. An estimation equation was suggested on the basis of the test results. We analyzed the estimation equation for design ice loads of the International Association of Classification Societies (IACS) classification rules. We suggest an estimation equation considering the relation between ice load, buttock angle, and velocity by modifying the equations given in the IACS classification rules.

Analysis of the internal state of the blast furnace is necessary to predict and to control the operating conditions. Especially, it is important to develop models of the blast furnace to predict the cohesive zone because shape of the cohesive zone influences overall operating conditions of blast furnace such as gas flow, chemical reactions and temperature. Because many previous blast furnace models have assumed cohesive zone to be fixed, it was not possible to evaluate the shape change of cohesive zone in relation with operating conditions such as PCR, blast condition, and production rate. In this study, an axi-symmetric 2-dimensional steady state model is proposed to simulate blast furnace processes. In this model, cohesive zone is determined by the solid temperature. Finite volume method is employed for numerical simulation. To find location of the cohesive zone, entire calculation procedure is iterated until converged. Through this approach, shape of the cohesive zone, velocity and temperature within the furnace are predicted from the model.
