To understand the role of helical geometry on the regression rate enhancement, two competing underlying mechanisms such as turbulence enhancement and swirling motion production were studied by numerical calculations. Experimental results showed that the enhancement of heat transfer rate has the very close relation to the increase in regression rate even though the percentage of increase in heat transfer rate is different from that in regression rate. This discrepancy is presumably due to the change of turbulent flow feature caused by so-called "blowing mass flux" from the fuel surface. In this regard, the results of RANS calculation show that the blowing velocity is responsible for the reduction of the swirl generation and the increase in the turbulent kinetic energy. And the dominancy of one of the mechanisms causes the increase in the regression rate. Meanwhile, the increase in turbulent kinetic energy due to the mixing of blowing flow and free stream flow does not contribute for the enhancement of the heat transfer rate to the surface because the blowing flow pushes boundary layer away from the solid surface.

Air dynamic bearings are inherently unstable in dynamic behavior due to the varying angle of a force produced and the nonlinear characteristics of stiffness. In this study, such dynamic behavior is obtained and compared with experimental results. A body axis coordinate system is employed to avoid the change of a moment of inertia. FDM is used to calculate the pressure distribution on the bearing surface and then the force acting on the rotor was calculated by integrating the pressure distribution. By integrating accelerations which are calculated from the equations of motion using the 4th order Runge-Kutta method, the pose of the bearing at each time step is obtained.

This paper is related to the improvement of efficiency for high performance centrifugal pumps by reducing leakage loss, which is achieved by applying the grooved seal as a non-contact seal to the pumps. Various combinations of grooved seal types, including the spiral and the parallel groove in the rotor and/or in the stator, were tested by the experiment. And the corresponding hydraulic performance and the magnitude of axial thrust were measured and calculated for ten cases. From the results, the type with the spiral groove(spiral angle : $0.98^{\circ}$) in both the rotor and the stator was found to be most effective. In this case, the head and the efficiency were improved from the original design by 2.1% and 2.3% respectively at design capacity($340m^3/h$), and the axial thrust was decreased by 10%.

In this paper the leakage prediction md rotordynamic analysis of an annular seal with a smooth rotor and spiral-grooved stator is performed. For the development of a theoretical model, the three-control-volume analysis of the circumferentially-grooved seal is expanded by considering pressure reduction due to the pumping effect of spiral groove and pressurized flow through the spiral groove. Validation on the present analysis is achieved by comparisons with available experimental data. For the leakage prediction the present analysis generally shows a reasonable agreement with experimental results. Rotordynamic coefficients for rotor speed with spiral angles show same trend, but the magnitudes of rotordynamic coefficients yield differences between analysis and experimental results.

Results by the present analysis are compared with available experimental data. For leakage the analysis results generally show a reasonable agreement to the experimental results. For rotordynamic coefficients the analysis results show the same trend as the experimental results for rotor speed with spiral angles, but their magnitudes show somewhat large deviations.

A brake disc with helical grooved vent in radial direction is proposed for the improvement of thermal dissipation. The heat transfer phenomenon is analyzed far both the proposed disc and the conventional one using finite element method. The thermal dissipation is considerably influenced by the geometrical differences of the brake discs. The results of the analysis show that the proposed brake disc with helical grooved vent has the improved performance to dissipate the thermal energy more effectively.

This paper investigates the radial performance of self-acting spiral-grooved air bearing, used to support small high-speed rotating bodies. Repeatable runout, nonrepeatable runout, stiffness and supporting load are selected as the performance. The clearance between rotor and stator, the stator groove depth, and the rotating speed are chosen as three main parameters affecting the performances. Force application and displacement measurement are done in a noncontact manner, in order not to disturb operation: electromagnetic force is applied to the rotor and gap sensors are used to measure the displacement of the rotor. Experimental results show that repeatable runout decreases as speed, groove depth and clearance decrease. Nonrepeatable runout decreases as clearance decreases, and it has a minimum value at $5.5{\mu}m$ of grove depth and a maximum value at speed of 18.000rpm. Stiffness increases as speed increases and clearance decreases, and has a maximum value around $5.5{\mu}m$ of groove depth. The relationship between force and displacement is linear for small displacement, but becomes nonlinear for large displacement. Supporting load is linearly proportional to the stiffness, and it is a maximum value around $4.75{\mu}m$ of clearance.

This paper suggests a service model which uses a wireless sensor network in home network environment. The sensor network consists of fixed sensor nodes and user identification nodes which is attached to each user. With the input information of the user preference profile and the collected data from the sensor nodes, the database is constructed as a context information and analyzed by a home server to provide a service that establishes and controls automatically home appliances according to each user's preference. The proposed service model is implemented and tested on a Linux server with MySQL database and sensor nodes on TinyOS.

A ventilated disc brake having spirally fluted surface has been proposed to improve the thermal judder by way of heat transfer enhancement. The local heat transfer coefficients were measured in the flow passage of disc brake. These measured local heat transfer data were utilized to do the finite element numerical analysis which predicts the maximum temperatures on the disc brake. The results show that the maximum temperatures on the disc surface with spirally fluted surface are approximately 26.6% lower than those without them.
