위상특이점이라고도 불리는 광 보텍스(optical vortex)를 포함한 빔은 파면의 특이성 때문에 많은 관심을 끌어왔다. 위상을 정의할 수 없는 위상특이점을 따라서는 빔의 동일위상파면이 소용돌이 형태를 가진다. 그 소용돌이 정도는 위상전하(topological charge) 라는 양으로 특징지을 수 있다. 광 보텍스는 선형 및 비선형적 특성에 대해 많은 연구가 이루어져왔다. 레이저 공진기를 변형하거나, 홀로그램이나 위상마스크에 레이저를 조사하여 보텍스를 발생시키는 방법 등의 여러 방법이 알려져 있다. (중략)

Vortex tube is a simple device which splits a compressed gas stream into a cold stream and a hot stream without any chemical reactions. The phenomena of energy separation taking place in a vortex tube has been investigated experimentally. Recently, vortex tube is widely used to local cooler of industrial equipments and air conditioner of special purpose. In this study, experimental study on vortex tube efficiency was performed with various cold end orifices and nozzles type. The experimental results indicate that there is an optimum diameter of cold end orifice and nozzle type for the best cooling performance. The variation of the maximum wall temperature along the vortex tube surface provides useful information about the location of the stagnation point of the flow field at the axis of the vortex tube. The similarity relation for the prediction of the temperature of the cold exit air was obtained.

When vortex tubes are applied to enhance the coefficient of performance of refrigeration system, the smaller one is preferable. However, the existing vortex generator with a nozzle hole diameter of 0.5mm was not suitable due to chocking of the nozzle hole. Therefore, experimental investigation was made to find an appropriate geometry of vortex generator, which could give a comparable effect of energy separation to commercial ones without chocking problem. The tested vortex generators were tangential and spiral types, which had single inducing channel with larger cross-sectional area than that of conventional multi-hole ones. The experimental result showed that the performance of the spiral type was better than that of the tangential one. As a small size of spiral one, the diameter of cold-end orifice is proposed to an half of tube diameter for the application to refrigeration system, while cold mass fraction ratio is 0.5∼0.6 for a desirable operation.
