Rapid prototyping was used to design and develop a three-dimensional (3D) scaffold for tissue engineering application. In this study, the nozzle guide (TB-CP-HN, MUSASHI ENGINEERING, INC., JAPAN) used with the syringe of the polymer deposition system (PDS) was evaluated by measuring the scaffold line width and height. 3D scaffolds were fabricated using a biodegradable polymer called poly-caprolactone (PCL). The PCL polymer can be deposited from the needle of a syringe using a 200-${\mu}m$ precision nozzle, at a pressure of 600 kPa and temperature of $125^{\circ}C$. The advantages and improvements in this nozzle guide were addressed through washer scaffold fabrication. Overall, this research indicated that the fabrication of a complex-shaped scaffold using an enhanced polymer deposition system may have potential for tissue engineering.

주노즐내의 공기제트의 효율을 높이기 위해, 주노즐 제트 속도는 높을수록 높은 마찰력을 초래 하여 위사의 속도를 증가시킨다. 가속관의 길이가 증가하면 노즐출구에서의 공기의 속도와 난 류가 감소하며; 가속관의 직경이 증가할 때에는 공기속도가 감소하며 난류는 증가한다. 탱크압력, 가속관의 길이 등 유동조건에 따라 유동은 니들 끝과 가속관 출구에서 이중 초크(M=1)가 발 생할 수 있다. 에어가이드 직경과 노즐직경의 그 비율이 클수록 제트에 의한 유동의 비말동 반(entrainment)이 크게 된다. 실제 노즐직기내의 유동은 위사를 동반한 유동이므로 위와 같은 정성적인 설명에 위사의 물성치에 따른 고려를 반드시 하여야만 한다. 현장에서의 노즐설계는 노즐형상 자체의 영향은 물론 각종 위사의 물성치에 맞는 압축공기 압력 최적조건이 무엇인가를 찾는 일도 매우 중요하다.

The cross flow turbine attracts more and more attention for its relatively wide operating range and simple structure. In this study, a novel type of micro cross flow turbine is developed for application to a step in an irrigational channel. The head of the turbine is only H=4.3m and the turbine inlet channel is open ducted type, which has barely been studied. The efficiency of the turbine with inlet open duct channel is relatively low. Therefore, a guide nozzle on the turbine inlet is attached to improve the performance of the turbine. The guide nozzle shapes are investigated to find the best shape for the turbine. The guide nozzle plays an important role on directing flow at the runner entry, and it also decreases the negative torque loss by reducing the pressure difference in Region 1. There is 12.5% of efficiency improvement by attaching a well shaped guide nozzle on the turbine inlet.

본 연구에서는 3차원 수치 해석 기법으로 SDR 반응기 내 유동 특성을 모사하여 유동 분포 및 체류 시간등을 확인하고 혼합 특성 개선을 위한 방법에 대해 연구하였다. 본 연구 대상 SDR 반응기는 입구 덕트와 반응기 본체의 접속 구간에 가이드 베인(Guide vane)이 설치되어 있고 그 바로 하부 지점에 흡수제를 분무하는 노즐이 설치되어 있다. 이는 처리가스가 반응기로 유입될 때 가이드 베인에 의해 선회류를 형성하여 분무된 흡수제와의 혼합을 촉진시키기 위한 목적으로 설치하였다. 시간당 1,971$m^3/min$ at $260^{\circ}C$의 처리가스가 반응기 상부로 유입되어 가이드 베인을 거쳐 선회류를 형성한 후흡수제와 혼합되어 하부로 배출되는 구조이다. 유동 특성을 분석한 결과, 처리가스가 반응기 중앙으로 강하게 편중되고 있었으며 반응기 양 측면으로 부상 기류가 형성되고 있음을 확인할 수 있다. 또한 강한 편류에 의해 체류시간도 매우 짧은 것으로 판단되는 바, 가이드 베인의 기류 안내 각도가 적합하지 못함을 확인할 수 있었다. 이는 곧 혼합 특성 저하에 따른 미반응 액적의 다량 발생과 함께 고착에 의한 스케일 형성 가능성이 매우 클 것으로 예상되므로 혼합 특성을 개선할 수 있는 설계 변경이 필요할 것으로 판단되었다. 따라서 편류를 해소하고 노즐 근처에서의 체공시간을 확보할 수 있도록 가이드 베인의 안내 각도를 더 크게 변경한 결과, 기존 설계상에서 본체 중앙에 형성되는 편류가 해소되고 선회류의 전개 각도가 커지면서 체류시간 역시 약 5초 이상으로 유지되고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 가이드 베인의 각도만 변경하더라도 본체 형상의 추가적인 변경없이 유동의 혼합 특성을 개선시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

Recently, small vertical axis wind turbine attracts attention because of its clean, renewable and abundant energy resources to develop. Therefore, a cross-flow type wind turbine is proposed for small wind turbine development in this study because the turbine has relatively simple structure and high possibility of applying to small wind turbine. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of the turbine‘s structural configuration on the performance and internal flow characteristics of the cross-flow turbine model using CFD analysis. The results show that guide nozzle should be adopted to improve the performance of the turbine. Optimization of the nozzle shape will be key-importance for the high performance of the turbine.

As the residence time in the vehicle increases, the passenger desires a pleasant and stable riding environment in addition to the high driving performance of the vehicle. The windshield defrosting performance is one of the performance requirements that is essential for driver's safe driving. In order to improve the defrosting performance of the windshield of a vehicle, relevant elements such as the shape of the defrost nozzle should be appropriately designed. In this paper, CFD based numerical analysis is conducted to improve defrost performance of small electric vehicles. The defrost performance analysis was performed by changing the angle of the defrost nozzle and the guide vane that spray hot air to the windshield of the vehicle. Numerical simulation results show that the defrosting performance is best when the defrost nozzle angle is $70^{\circ}$ and the guide vane installation angle is $60^{\circ}$. Based on the analytical results, the defrosting experiment was performed by fabricating the defrost nozzle and the guide vane. As a result of the experiment, it is confirmed that the frost of windshield is removed by 80% within 20 minutes, and it is judged that the defrost performance satisfying the FVMSS 103 specification is secured.

Effects of the duct inlet guide vane on the flowrate distribution characteristics of the defroster nozzle exit in a defrost duct system were investigated experimentally to design the optimum heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system applied in an automotive compartment. A 3-dimensional hot-wire anemometer system was used to measure the velocity field in the vicinity of the defroster nozzle jet flow and the velocity distributions near the windshield interior surface. At first, two cases of with- and without-duct inlet guide vanes were considered as the test condition, and then three cases of the duct inlet guide vane were tested to determine the optimum guide vane shape and their positions. The arrangement of the duct inlet guide vanes has an effect on the improved flowrate distribution at the defroster nozzle exit and near the windshield interior surface. However, the application of the lots of guide vane to control the flow direction leads to increase the flow resistance, resulting in the decreased flowrate issuing from the defroster nozzle. The shape of the duct inlet guide vane affects not only the flowrate distribution between the driver side and the assistant driver side but also the reduction of the flow resistance in the defrost duct system.
