An experimental study of the dynamic characteristics of the free rising oblate spherical bubble is investigated. As noted by Saffman, the characteristics of the spiral motion are defined with parameters of the spiral frequency, spiral radius, and rising velocity. High speed camera recorded every detail information of free rising bubble. The spiral number, the bubble rise velocity, and the angular velocities were measured for the bubble size between 1.0mm to 20.0mm in diameter. In order to make clear trajectory, we employed the Fast Fourier Transformation for the normal digital camera data to synchronize with the high speed camera data. It was found that the spiral number suggested here was monotonically decreased as the bubble size increases. The present observation, however tells us that previous Saffman's formulation shows a good agreement with the trend, but over estimated spiral number. Therefore, it is recommended that Saffman's theoretical study is needed to be improved.

증기발생기가 원자로압력용기안에 위치한 일체형원자로의 개발을 위해서 가장먼저 개발되어야 할 요소기술은 관류형 증기발생기의 설계기술이다. 증기발생기는 기존의 상용로에서 사용되고 있는 재순환형 증기발생기와 관류형 증기발생기로 분류 할 수 있는데, U-튜브를 사용하는 재순환형 중기발생기의 경우 습분분리기와 증기건조기 등이 많은 공간을 요구하고 있고, 또한 중기발생기를 압력용기 안에 위치시킬 경우 일차측과 이차측의 냉각수 유로형태, 유동장의 안정성 등의 문제 때문에 일체형원자로에서는 관류형 증기발생기의 도입이 일반화 되어있기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 관류형(직관 및 나선 전열관형) 증기발생기의 열수력학적 설계 및 성능분석을 위한 프로그램, ONCESG를 개발했다. 개발된 모델링 및 컴퓨터코드의 검증을 위해 외국의 관류형 중기발생기(직관형:미국/영국의 SIR, 나선형:일본의 MRX, SPWR)의 설계자료를 ONCESG프로그램을 사용해 모사한 결과와 이미 발표된 설계자료와의 비교분석을 수행했다. 모사결과 계산된 관류형 증기발생기의 열전달면적, 압력 및 온도분포가 외국의 발표된 설계자료와 잘 일치했으며, 개발된 ONCESG코드를 일체형 신형원자로의 개념설계시 다양한 목적으로 활용할 수 있음을 보였다.

Extruders are the heart of the polymer processing industry. The single most important mechanical element of a screw extruder is the screw. The proper design of the geometriy of the extruder screw is of crucial importance to the proper functioning of the extruder. If material transport instabilities occur as a result of improper screw geometry, even the most sophisticated computerized control system cannot solve the problem. For this purpose, characteristics design on helix angle of the extruder screw. This paper presents strength of the screw flight, optimum helix angle versus dimensionless down channel pressure gradient, optimum helix angle versus the power law index in simultaneous optimization, volumetric efficiency versus helix angle at various number of flights and power consumption versus helix angle in the barrel of screw extruder.

This paper is to present the results of a comprehensive study on heat transfer in annuli with spirally corrugated inner tubes in the turbulent regime. Tube surface-temperature measurements were used to explain the enhancement phenomena in the annuli with several different corrugated tubes. Nusselt numbers were between 1.1 and 2 times the smooth annulus values. These enhancement values can be used to determine the appropriate range of applicability for spirally corrugated annuli.

This study is to consider that the helical intake port flow and fuel injection system have effects on the characteristics of engine performance and emissions in a turbocharged DI diesel engine of the displacement 9.4L. The swirl ratio for ports was modified by hand-working and measured by impulse torque swirl meter, For the effects on performance and emission, the brake torque, BSFC were measured by engine dynamometer and NOx, smoke were by gas analyzer and smoke meter. As a result of steady flow test, when the valve eccentricity ratio are closed to cylinder wall, the flow coefficient and swirl intensity are increased, And as the swirl is increased, the mean flow coefficient is decreasing, whereas the gulf factor is increasing. Also, through engine test its can be expected to meet performance and emission by the following applied parameter; the swirl ratio is 2.43, injection timing is BTDC $13^{\circ}$CA and compression is 15.5.

The present paper is to present the results of studied of pressure drop in annuli with corrugated and spirally fluted inner tubes for the turbulent flow regime. To understand the underlying physical phenomena responsible for heat transfer enhancement, flow mechanism documented elsewhere are combined with pressure drop measurements to confirm the friction factors obtained from the annuli with the grooved inner tubes for the Reynolds number of 1000 to 8000. Friction factors were found to be functions of trough depth, pitch and angle, and the annulus radius ratio. friction factor increases in the spirally fluted tubes were larger than those in the corrugated tubes.

The study investigates the mechanical deformation of a newly developed screwless omega-wire dynamic system for stabilization of the spine. The omega-wire spring stabilization system was tested under tension, compression, and dynamic compressive fatigue loads. In addition, its bending deformation was compared to that of a spiral-wire spring system using FEA. A model whose hanger inter-center distance is 60 mm showed an ultimate tensile stress of 3981.7 N at a displacement of 3.61 mm and an ultimate compressive load of 535.6 N at a displacement of 2.16 mm. Under fatigue loading of 5 Hz with 10 N/1 N, it did not show any failure over 5 million cycles, and the displacement was restricted to 8-9 mm. In the FEA, the omega-wire spring system showed more flexible bending features than did the spiral-wire spring system.

This experimental study concerns the characteristics of a transitional flow in a concentric annulus with a diameter ratio of 0.52, whose outer cylinder is stationary and inner one rotating. The pressure losses and skin-friction coefficients have been measured for the fully developed flow of a 0.2 % aqueous solution of sodium carbomethyl cellulose (CMC) at a inner cylinder rotational speed of $0{\sim}600$ rpm. The transitional flow has been examined by the measurement of pressure losses, to reveal the relation of the Reynolds numbers with the skin-friction coefficients, in the laminar and transitional flow regimes. The occurrence of transition has been checked by the gradient change of pressure losses and skin-friction coefficient with respect to the Reynolds numbers. The increasing rate of skin-friction coefficient due to the rotation is uniform for laminar flow regime, whereas it is suddenly reduced for transitional flow regime and, then, it is gradually declined for turbulent flow regime. Consequently, the critical(axial-flow) Reynolds number decrease as the rotational speed increases. Thus, the rotation of inner cylinder promotes the early occurrence of transition due to the onset of taylor vortices.

This Experimental study concerns the characteristics of vortex flow in a concentric annulus with a diameter ration of 0.52, whose outer cylinder is stationary and inner one is rotating. Pressure losses and skin-friction coefficients have been measured for fully developed flow of bentonite-water solution(5%) when the inner cylinder rotates at the speed $0{\sim}400rpm$. The results of present study reveal the relation of the bulk flow Reynolds number Re and Rossby number $R_o$ With respect to the skin friction coefficients. The effect of rotation on the skin friction coefficient is significantly dependent on the flow regime. In all flow regime, the skin friction coefficient is increased by the inner cylinder rotation. The critical (bulk flow) Reynolds number $Re_c$ decreases as the rotational speed increases. Thus, the rotation of the inner cylinder promotes the onset of transition due to the excitation of Taylor vortices.
