Previous studies on the performance of the round type impactor were reexamined and extended to the case of high particle mass loading. It was pointed out that the previous numerical studies need to be supplemented in the numerical process. The impactor performance was calculated under the same conditions as previous studies by the exact calculation process and it was found out that a tail of the collection efficiency curve, which have not been found in the previous studies, appeared in the results of ours. Numerical results for high particle mass loading show that the value of the collection efficiency in the impactor decreases but better particle-cut characteristics can be obtained, as the amount of the particle mass loading increases.

The inclusion of thermophoresis in particle deposition studies has often been treated separately from deposition due to flow characteristics. Also previously reported experimental results on thermophoresis have been studied in the regions of relatively small temperature gradients. In this study, using real-time laser light reflectivity method, we measured the angular dependence of the deposition rates of particles of the cylindrical collector surface, which immerged in laminar flow of a hot gas suspension of small particles. And we extended the previous narrowband results of thermophoretic deposition rates to the regions of large temperature gradients between the hot gas stream and the collector surface. Based on the obtained data, the cylinder's forward stagnation-point region is considerably enriched in particle 'phase' density owing to the compressibility effect, which leads to locally enhanced deposition while the downstream region from the stagnation point inertial force acts in the opposite direction, which tends to centrifuge particles away from the wall, thus the local deposition rates by thermophoresis are reduced.

Wall slip models are essential to the study of nonequilibrium gas transport in rarefied and microscale condition that can be found in gas flows associated with aerospace vehicle, propulsion system, and MEMS. The Maxwell slip model has been used for this type of problem, but it has difficulty in defining the so-called accommodation coefficient and has not been very effective in numerical implementation. In the present study, on the basis of Langmuir's theory of the adsorption of gases on metals, a physical slip model is developed. The concept of the accommodation coefficient and the difference of gas particles are clearly explained in the new model. It turned out that the Langmuir model recovers the Maxwell model in the first-order approximation. The new models are also applied to various situations including internal flow in a microchannel. Issues of validation of models are treated by comparing analytic results with experiment.

마이크로폴라 탄성이론은 다른 마이크로연속체(microcontinuum) 이론에 비해 적용이 간단하며, 실제 많은 물리적인 현상을 규명하는 데 다양하게 이용할 수 있다. 특히 고전 탄성이론에 의해 적절하게 해결될 수 없는 덤벨(dumbell) 분자로 이루어진 물체, 액체 결정체(liquid crystals), 과립상(granular)의 분자로 구성된 물체와 복합 섬유재료(composite fibrous materials) 등은 마 이크로폴라 탄성이론에 의해 잘 해결될 수 있다. 또한 마이크로폴라 탄성이론은 고체 내에서의 파의 전파(propagation)와 분산(dispersion), 구멍 주위의 응력집중과 외부 하중을 받는 물체에 있어 균열끝에서의 응력 분포 등의 고체역학 문제들은 물론이고, 경계층(boundary layer), 난 류(turbulence), 유체 유동의 불안정(instability)과 표면장력 현상 등의 유체역학에서의 복잡한 문제들을 해결하는 데에도 이용할 수 있다. 마이크로폴라 탄성이론은 고전 탄성이론에 비해 상 대적으로 새롭고 미개척 분야이긴 하지만 이론의 기반이 확고하기 때문에 앞으로의 회전응력 측정장치의 개발을 통해 미소구조의 영향을 고려해야 하는 많은 문제들을 해결하는데 큰 기여를 할 것으로 전망된다.

In order to scrutinize the fluid conductivity effects on the electromagnetic flowmeter(EMF) characteristics, a small scale EMF was designed and fabricated. The measuring tube has a $3mm{\times}4mm$ rectangular cross-section, 9 mm length, and a $2mm{\times}3mm$ plate electrode and a ${\Phi}1.5mm$ point electrode. The design parameters, such as the magnetizing frequency and the number of coil turns, and the diameter were optimized. The EMF was tested with a gravimetric calibrator and showed good linearity in the range of 0 to $1.17{\times}10^{-5}m^3/s$. The fluid conductivity was varied between 3 and $11{\mu}S/cm$, and the magnitude of the flow signal was proportional to the fluid conductivity and the wetted area of the electrode. The design information and the test results provide flow measurement techniques for very low flowrate.
