In this study, numerical simulations were conducted for conjugate heat transfer around ice balls in an encapsulated ice thermal storage system. Four shapes of ice balls were modeled; the default one was a sphere, and the other three shapes were designed to enhance convective heat transfer through the ball surface. The flow around the ball was laminar, for which the Reynolds number was 300, and both forced and natural convections inside and outside the balls were considered. The simulations revealed that the magnitude of convective heat transfer for the different shapes decreased in the following order: bone, dimple, hole, and sphere. For the entire simulation, the maximum difference in the average temperatures of water inside the capsules was found to be $0.9^{\circ}C$. Therefore, it can be said that the effect of ice-ball shape on the performance of the ice thermal storage system is significant, considering that more than 0.3 million balls are used in this system.

Hydro dynamically developing and simultaneously (hydro dynamically and thermally) developing laminar flows of a Bingham plastic in a circular pipe have been investigated numerically. Solutions have been obtained by using a four-step fractional method combined with an equal order bilinear finite element method. For the hydro dynamically developing flow, shorter entrance length is required to reach fully developed velocity field for larger yield stress and non-monotonic pressure drop along the pipe centerline is observed when the yield stress exceeds a certain critical value. For the simultaneously developing flow, the heat transfer characteristics show the same trends as those predicted for the thermally developing flow (Graetz problem).

A steady transonic dilute premixed combustion in a diverging channel is investigated by using asymptotic analysis. This model explores the nonlinear interactions between the near-sonic speed of the flow, the small changes in geometry from a straight channel, and the small heat release due to the one-step first-order Arrhenius chemical reaction. The reactive flow is described by a nonhomogeneous transonic small-disturbance (TSD) equation coupled with an ordinary differential equation for the calculation of the reactant mass fraction in the combustible gas. Also the asymptotic analysis reveals the similarity parameters that govern the reacting flow problem. The results show the complicated nonlinear interaction between the convection, reaction, and geometry effects and its effect on the flow behavior.

Turbulent flow and thermal fields of gaseous hydrogen/liquid oxygen flames at supercritical pressure are investigated by turbulence models. The modified Soave-Redlich-Kwong (SRK) EOS is implemented into the flamelet model to realize real-fluid combustions. For supercritical fluid flows, the modified pressure-velocity-density coupling are introduced. Based on the algorithm, the relative performance of six convection schemes and the predictions of four turbulence models are compared. The selected turbulence models are needed to be modified to consider various characteristics of real-fluid combustions.

The temperature of the flight objects in high speed increases due to the aerodynamic heating. MINIVER and CFD approach are used to predict the aerodynamic heating conditions of KSLV-I. MINIVER is based on the empirical method. And the CFD approach predicts the aerodynamic heating conditions after the analysis of the surface temperature and the surface heat flux directly. In this study, the aerodynamic heating conditions using CFD approach are considered. The PLF temperature for these aerodynamic heating conditions is compared with the flight test data of KSLV-I.

밀도가 온도의 변화에 따라 비선형적으로 변하는 경우, 예를 들어 공업적으로 많이 이용되고 있는 저온의 물인 경우에는 $4^{\circ}C$부근의 최대밀도점의 존재로 인해 매우 특이한 유동형태 및 열전달 특성이 나타난다. 또한 유체와 접하는 고체면이 평판의 경우와는 달리 어떤 일정의 곡률을 가지는 원기둥일 경우에는 곡률반경의 효과에 대한 특성이 고려되어야 한다. 이러한 현상은 공업적 측면뿐만 아니라 자연환경의 변화 등에서 매우 중요한 의미를 갖는다. (중략)

자갈축열 태양열온실은 주간에 일사로 데워진 온실 내부공기를 온실하부에 설치된 자갈축열층사이로 강제순환시켜 자갈에 에너지를 축열한다. 이러한 축열과 방열과정을 통하여 겨울철 야간에 난방시스템으로 이용하고, 여름철에는 냉방효과를 꾀하게 된다. 온실내 공기가 축열층을 통과하는 동안의 열전달은 강제대류열전달이며, 이 경우 축열층내의 열이동은 축열층내 공기와 자갈표면온도가 초기에는 열적으로 평형상태로 존재하다가 순환공기의 온도상승에 따라 열전달이 일어나게 된다. (중략)

대수층에서 오염물질의 이동은 대류, 확산, 흡착 등의 물리화학적 현상에 영향을 받는다. 지하수 유동과 오염 물질 운송에 관련된 분석은 지하수 자원의 관리와 평가, 복원사업에 필요한 요소이다. 본 연구의 목적은 사질대수층에서의 2차원 plume 모니터링을 통하여 오염운의 관측치와 모사치를 비교하므로써 종분산지수와 종/횡분산지수비를 결정하는 것이다. 실내 자유면 대수층 실험에서 MT3D를 이용한 case study로부터 추정된 종분산지수는 0.4 cm였으며 횡/종분산지수비는 1/5로 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 F=1/4때 및 F=4일때 각각 Fx 및 Fy가 변하는 율을 동일하게 선택하였다. 따라서 F=1/4때의 Fx값은 중력의 방향을 90˚회전 시킬때의 경우인 F=4 일 때의 Fy값과 동일하여진다.
