Thrust vector control system is control device which is mounted exit of the nozzle to generate pitch, yaw and roll directional force by deflecting flow direction of the supersonic jet from the nozzle. By obtaining control force, jetvane which is exposed in jet flow is working thermal and aerodynamic load. Axial thrust loss and side thrust is affected by shock patterns and interactions between jetvanes according to jetvane geometry and turning angle. In this study, we designed 6 types of jetvane to evaluate pitch, yaw and roll characteristics of ietvane in supersonic flow, and perform the cold flow test in range of turning angles of jetvanes between $0^{\cire}$ and $25^{\cire}$ by $5^{\cire}$ respectively. Also, calculation is going side by side to analyse flow interaction. Results show that there is no interactions between jetvanes upto turning angle 20$^{\circ}$, chord and lead length ratio is very important parameter to aerodynamic performance and maximum thrust loss is appeard to 17% of axial thrust in roll directional control.

Turbulent flow and combustion characteristics in a micro can combustor with a baffle plate are investigated by a Reynolds Stress Model. In order to examine the geometric effects on the turbulent combusting flow, several baffle configurations are selected. The interrelation between the flow structure and the thermal field are investigated by examing the variation of recirculation region, flame length and heat loss. For the flow mixing, the decreasing air hole is more efficient than the decrease of the fuel hole. As the fuel or air hole diameter decreases, combustion efficiency is enhanced and flame length is decreased. Additionally, as the diameter of air hole decreases, the heat loss and combustion temperature are increased, while they are reduced with decreasing the diameter of fuel hole.

This paper aims to compare and study the cooling performance of a battery system in accordance with the inlet and outlet geometry of the air passage in an EV. The arrangement and the heat source of the battery module were fixed, and the inlet/outlet area and its geometry were varied with the analysis of the cooling performance. The results of this study provide suggestions for the air flow stream line inside of a battery, the velocity field, and the temperature distributions. It was confirmed that the volume flow rate of air should be over $400m^3/h$, in order to satisfy conditions under $50^{\circ}C$, which is the limit condition for stable operation. It was also revealed that the diffuser outlet geometry can improve the cooling performance of battery system.

As a kind of application of laser propulsion, air-breathing laser-spike engine can be designed for aircraft in atmospheric flight. Laser-spike engine generates thrust using the blast wave induced by laser energy instead of combustion process. And this engine use air as propellant, therefore, it need no on board propellant. For experimental study, supersonic wind tunnel and spark generator were used. Flow visualization was performed using 2-dimensional laser-spike engine model And numerical simulation of the corresponding case for the experiment was done and compared with experimental case. Detailed results will be discussed at the presentation.

충격파의 경사반사는 초음속 비행체의 외부유동, 대형압축기의 디퓨져 내의 유동, 증기 터어빈 최종단 익렬유동, 데토네이션파가 벽면에 입사하는 유동 혹은 램제트의 연소공기 유입구 유동 등 초음속 유동에서 흔히 발생하며 이때의 유동장의 해석과 충격파 감쇄, 충격파와 간섭하는 벽면의 영향 등은 공학적으로 구명되어져야 할 중요한 문제이다. 전파하는 평면충격파가 벽면에 입사하는 경우 일어나는 충격파 경사반사는 크게 정상반사와 마하반사로 대별된다. 정상반사와 마하반사 간의 천이기준에 대한 연구는 오래 전부터 수행되어 왔고 입사충격파가 약한 경우 이론적 천이 기준인 이탈기준(detachment criterion)과 실험값의 차이 즉 Neumann paradox가 존재한다는 것이 밝혀졌다.

An OWC-type Wave Energy Conversion passes through 3 steps energy conversion process. This paper deal with the internal oscillating flow and effect of shape of air chamber and duct at setting place of turbine by numerical analysis using commercial CFD code, FLUENT. Air chamber and duct in OWC-type wave energy conversion are adopting sudden expanded and contracted form for high-efficiency. So, whole oscillating flow from OWC-type chamber to outlet duct through duct was solved by steady and unsteady analysis in order that flow efficiency of air chamber and duct was made better.

A measurement technique of interfacial velocity in air-water separated flow by particle tracking velocimetry using an infrared camera (IR-PTV) was developed. As infrared light with wavelength in the range of 3-5 um could hardly penetrate water, IR-PTV can selectively visualize only the tracer particles existing in depths less than 20 um underneath the air-water interface. To validate the measurement accuracy of the IR-PTV technique, a measurement of the interfacial velocity of the air-water separated flow using Styrofoam particles floating in water was conducted. The interfacial velocity values obtained with the two different measurement techniques showed good agreement with errors less than 5%. It was found from the experimental results obtained using the developed technique that with increasing air velocity, the interfacial velocity proportionally increases, likely because of the increased interfacial stress.

진공청소기에서 발생하는 주 소음원은 홴(fan)에 의한 공력 소음및 모터의 진동에 기인하는 청소기 본체의 소음과 청소기 흡입 노즐(nozzle)에서 발생하는 공력 소음으로 나눌수 있다. 청소기 본체의 주 소음원인 원심 홴(centrifugal fan)은 고속으로 회전하며 구조가 복잡함으로 인해 소음 해석에 필수적인 유동의 해석이 어려우나 이산 와류법을 이용한 소음원 해석등의 연구가 진행중이다. 진공청소기 노즐부에서는 일반적인 분류(jet)의 토출과는 상이하게 공기를 흡입하는 구조로 소음 발생 기구의 모델링 (modeling)에 대한 연구는 거의 전무하다. 공력 소음은 Lighthill에 의하면 비정상 유체가 운동할 때 나타나는 변형에 기인한다고 하며 주변에 고정 경계면이 없는 상태에서 유체가 흐를 때 발생하는 소음을 이론적으로 연구하였다. 그후 Curle에 의해서 고체 벽면의 영향을 고려한 방정식의 해가 구해졌다.

In the present study, flow fields inside a photocatalysis air cleaning system have been investigated to obtain the data for optimum design of the system. For this investigation, we first predicted the pressure drop of a photocatalysis filter. Based on this calculation, we replaced the filter by the porous media and analysed the performance of the entire system. This porous media assumption could predict characteristics of the cylindrical photocatalysis filter within 1%. Two cases of the cylindrical filter were considered in the present calculations. The first case had an inside diameter of 6 mm, while the second case had an inside diameter of 20 mm. It was found that the first case of filter showed a pressure drop three times higher than that of the second case. In addition, the cylindrical filter equipped with a housing to hold a number of cylinders in a bundle was also analyzed. When the housing was present, the pressure drop increased. It was found that the pressure drop is 8 times higher than that of the case when the housing was not equipped.

핀-관 열교환기의 효율을 증대시키기 위하여는 열저항을 결정하는 데 있어서 중요한 역할을 하는 공기측 열전달 특성의 향상이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 핀-관 열교환기의 공리측 성능을 해석하기 위해서 3차원 비압축성 Navier-Stokes 코드를 개발하였으며 이 코드는 시간항에 스칼라 내재적 근사분해법(scalar implicit approximate factorization)절차, 공간항에 유한체적법과 2차의 풍상차분법(upwind differencing)을 사용한다. 서로 다른 3개의 핀형상(평판핀, 슬릿핀, 파형핀)을 고려하였고 이들의 유동 및 열전달 특성을 연구하였다.
