The incomplete saturation and the void formation during the resin infiltration into fibrous porous media in the resin transfer molding process cause failure in the final product during its service. In order to better understand flow behavior during the filling process, a finite-element scheme for transient flow simulation across the micro-structured fibrous media is developed in the present work. A volume-of- fluid (VOF) method has been incorporated in the Eulerian frame to capture the evolution of flow front and the vertical periodic boundary condition has been combined to avoid unwanted wall effect. In the microscale simulation, we investigated the transient filling process in various fiber structures and discussed the mechanism leading to the flow fingering in the case of random fiber distribution. Effects of the filling pressure, the shear-thinning behavior of fluid and the volume fraction on the flow front have been investigated for both intra-tow and the inter-tow flows in dual-scale fiber tow models.

Heat transfer and solidification of liquid silicon in von-$K{\acute{a}}rm{\acute{a}}n$ swirling flow is investigated. The moving boundary is fixed for all times by a coordinate transformation, and finite difference method Is used to obtain the instantaneous location of the solid-liquid Interface and the heat transfer from the surfaces of solid and liquid. For small Stefan number or low wall temperature, the transient heat transfer from the surface of solid(QS(t)) is much larger than that from the liquid side of solid-liquid interface(QL(t)) and QL(t) reaches its quasi-steady-state value much faster than QS(t).

Heavy-weight impact noise(HN) is the most irritating noise in Korean apartment houses. It has been proclaimed standard floor system of 210mm thick slab with isolation material in the wall type structure. But this regulation is applied only new construction field and is not considered remodeling field. In general, the LN can be reduced by using isolation material but HN is known as relating with stiffness, strength & boundary condition of slab. Therefore it is difficulty in improving the HN on remodeling field. In this study, We conducted the reinforcement of concrete slab using C.F.S.(carbon fiber sheet), steel plate and steel beam after on-dol with isolation material on the remodeling field. As the test results, It appeared using C.F.S was no improved but using steel plate & steel beam were a little improved on HN.

The control rod assemblies do freely fall into the reactor core by the gravity from the control rod drive mechanism. In order to achieve a rapid shutdown and control the reactor power, it is required to insert control rod assemblies as soon as possible. In this paper, we evaluated the drop time and flow characteristics caused around guide tube for SMART(System-integrated modular advanced reactor) control rod assembly. Numerical analyses are carried out with FLUENT program of computational fluid dynamics. This study results show that the drop time of the control rod assembly in the operating condition of SMART is more 20 percent rapidly than the drop time of the room temperature and ambient atmosphere condition.

This paper presents an analysis of a slot on the broad wall of a rectangular waveguide using the 3D FDTD method. In order to reduce the reflection loss, Mur's 2nd absorbing boundary condition is used. To realize the optimum design by FDTD, the effects of time step, excitation aperture size, analysis region and excitation position in model are derived. The analysis results are compared with the experimental results and they show a good agreement with each other.

In recent years, as lines are selected In disadvantageous region, unavoidable developments is increased. Owing to such developments. environmental problems have been occurred frequently, In excavation of tunnels especially located in close to slope, uneven stress take place to tunnel due to a topographical factor. it is used assistant methods of construction which are excavation of slope, retaining wall, ground anchor, etc for uneven stress. these assistant methods raise problems of environmental. In this study, using slit, we could make better stress state by means of inducing stress concentration in boundary of tunnel. considering a variety of slit and rock mass condition, we use numerical analysis.

In this paper, the thermal lattice Boltzmann method(TLBM) proposed by Guo et al.(2002) is applied to analyze the forced convective flow and heat transfer of 2-D micro channel. Nonequilibrium extrapolation boundary condition is adopted to simulate the velocity and temperature behavior at wall boundaries. Numerical results obtained by the present study give a good prediction of the micro fluidic characteristics with thermal effects.

In this study, we attempted to quantify the relative importance of assumptions regarding blood rheology. Three patient-specific carotid bifurcation geometries and time-varying flow rates were obtained using magnetic resonance imaging. For each subject, CFD simulations were carried out assuming two different non-Newtonian rheology models Carreau and Ballyk models) and rescaled Newtonian viscosities based on characteristic shear rates to account for the shear-thinning property of blood. The sensitivity of WSS and oscillatory shear index (OSI) were contextualized with respect to the reproducibility of the reconstructed geometry and to assumptions regarding the inlet boundary conditions. We conclude that the assumption of Newtonian fluid is reasonable for studies aimed at quantifying the distribution of WSS-based extrema in an image-based CFD model of carotid bifurcation.

Local mean fluctuating velocity components were measured in the separating and reattaching axisymmetrc region of turbulent boundary layer over the wall of convex cylinders placed in a water tunnel by using 2-color 4-beam fiber optics laser Doppler velocimetry. Measurements were made with three different diameters of cylinders with four different diameters of cylinders with four different diameter of the obstructions. The range of Reynolds number based on step height was between 5,000 to 25,200. The study demonstrates that the reattachment length decreases with decreasing cylinder radius and is always shorter than that for the two-dimensional backward-facing step flow at the condition of the same step height. It was also observed that the turbulent kinetic energy in the recirculating region increases with an increases in the radius of convex curvature. The measured velocity field suggests that the transverse curvature can effect definitely the formation of corner eddy.

In this paper, heat conduction characteristics of the cylinder block of a small 3 - cylinder, 4¬stroke gasoline engine were analyzed using the 3 - dimensional finite element method. Based on the experimental data, the engine cycle simulation was carried out in order to obtain the heat transfer coefficient and the temperature of the gas and the mean heat transfer coefficient of the coolant. Heat transfer data of the gas, which were averaged with respect to exposure time to the wall, were taken as convective boundary conditions corresponding to the operating conditions to obtain the temperature fields of the block. Finally silicon nitride(Si3N4) was taken as the material of the block liner in order to investigate its temperature distribution characteristics and compare the results with the original ones.
