In a number of industries, porous insulations have been frequently used, reducing thermal insulation space through excellent performance of the thermal insulation's characteristics. This paper suggests an effective thermal conductivity prediction model. Firstly, we perform a literature review of traditional effective thermal conductivity prediction models and compare each model with experimental heat transfer results. Furthermore, this research defines the effectiveness of thermal conductivity prediction models using experimental heat transfer results and the Zehner-Schlunder model. The newly defined effective thermal conductivity prediction model has been verified to better predict performance than other models. Finally, this research performs a transient heat transfer analysis of a thermal protection system with a porous insulation in a high speed vehicle using the finite element method and confirms the validity of the effective thermal conductivity prediction model.

Combustion phenomena in porous media combustors are widely used in industrial fields for the combustion of lowgrade fuels and the regeneration of combustion heat. However, studies of combustion phenomena in porous media have been limited, because these phenomena are difficult to observe, and the configurations of porous media are complex. We propose a simple model combustor: a multi-channel combustor that consists of many layers of combustion channels made of quartz plates. We conducted an experimental observation of the flames in the multi-channel combustor and obtained experimental results for the flame stabilization limits. Flames formulated in the multi-channel combustor showed variation in the spatial distribution depending on the heat transfer between neighboring channels. A simple analytical model was developed and the variation in the flammability limits of the multi-channel combustor was discussed. This study will enhance our understanding of flame behavior in a porous-media combustor.

A design method for a perforated panel is suggested to reduce the level of incident noise without obstructing the flow of incoming fluid. The key idea was to insert an array of 1/4 wavelength tubes around the holes of the perforate panel. First, various case studies were performed for a unit model with only one hole. In order to avoid any increase in the panel thickness, the unit model was vertically divided into three layers, and only the middle layer was used as the design domain. The number and array of 1/4 wavelength tubes connected to the hole were optimized to obtain the widest effective frequency range in the transmission loss curve as possible. Then, the optimally designed unit model was converted to a periodic array in the perforated panel to achieve the design goals. Even if the target frequency and the target transmission loss were set to 1000 Hz and 10 dB, respectively, the suggested design method for the a perforated panel could achieve noise reduction for various target values.

수중에서 물과 공기 다공을 갖는 다공성 매질의 주파수 및 다공율 변화에 따른 음향특성을 고찰하였다. 다공성 매질로서 원통형 다공을 인위적으로 균일하게 배열한 판형 루사이트 (Lucite)를 사용하였다. 수중에서 음파를 다공성 매질의 원통형 다공의 축 방향과 평행하게 입사하였을 때, 빠른 파 (fast wave)는 다공 내의 매질에 영향을 받지 않으나, 느린 파 (slow wave) 및 원통형 다공을 전파하는 비평면 고차 정상 모드 파 (nonplanar higher normal mode wave)는 다공 내의 매질에 크게 영향을 받는다. 3MHz부터 4MHz까지의 주파수 영역에서 전체 파 (total wave), 빠른 파 및 느린 파의 음속 및 음압투과계수를 주파수 및 물과 공기 다공율 변화에 따라 측정하였다. 비강체 다공성 매질에서의 음파 전파특성에 대한 MBA (modified Biot-Attenborough) 모델의 이론 결과와 실험결과를 비교, 분석하였다.

Based on Maxwell-Eucken(ME) model, which is one of structural models, a new model for predicting the effective thermal conductivity of variably saturated porous materials is proposed. The new model is a linear combination of three ME models having matrix, water, and air as a continuous phase. The coefficient of the corresponding linear equation is defined by a parameter referred to as 'the continuity coefficient', which provides a relative degree of continuity of each phase. The continuity coefficient of matrix is assumed to be linearly proportional to porosity. The model can be linear or nonlinear depending on how the continuity coefficients of water and air vary with water saturation. The feasibility of the proposed model was examined by both numerical and experimental results. Both linear and nonlinear models showed a high accuracy of prediction with $R^2$ values of 0.86-0.98 and 0.88-0.99, respectively. The numerical and experimental results also showed that the continuity coefficient of matrix was linearly proportional to porosity. Therefore, the proposed prediction model can be effectively used to estimate effective thermal conductivity of unsaturated porous materials by measuring porosity, water content and mineralogical compositions of matrix.

In this study, fluid flow and thermal characteristics in a catalyst bed for nitrous oxide catalytic decomposition which is introduced as a hybrid rocket ignition system for small satellites were theoretically considered. To analyze the thermal phenomena of the catalyst bed, a so-called porous medium approach has been opted for modeling the honeycomb geometry of the catalyst bed. Using a Brinkman-extended Darcy model for fluid flow and the one-equation model for heat transfer, the analytical solutions for both velocity and temperature distributions in the catalyst bed are obtained and compared with experimental data to validate the porous medium approach. Based on the analytical solutions, parameters of engineering importance are identified to be the porosity of the catalyst bed, effective volumetric ratio, the ratio of the radius of the catalyst bed to the radius of a pore, heat flux generated by a heater, and pumping power. Their effects on thermal phenomena of the catalyst bed are studied.

This paper introduces a non-hydrostatic wave model SWASH for simulating wave interactions with porous structures. This model calculates the flow in porous media based on volume-averaged Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations (VARANS) in ${\sigma}$-coordinate. The empirical coefficients of resistance used to account for the flow in a porous media often need to be measured or calibrated. In this study, the empirical resistance coefficients used in the model are calibrated and validated using laboratory experiments, involving dam-break flow through porous media, and solitary wave interactions with a porous structure. It is shown that the agreement between experimental and numerical results is generally satisfactory. It is also confirmed that non-hydrodynamic model, SWASH, is computationally much more efficient than the three-dimensional porous flow models based on VOF approach.
