The study was performed to understand combustion characteristics of the slinger combustor. Liquid fuel is discharged radially outwards through injection holes drilled in the high speed rotating shaft. The spray test was peformed to verify atomizing characteristics with variation of fuel nozzle rotational speed by using PDPA system. SMD was measured at different RPM and values are 70$\mu\textrm{m}$ at 5,000RPM rpm, 60$\mu\textrm{m}$ at 10,000RPM and 40$\mu\textrm{m}$ at 20,000RPM. In the results, we found out that SMD is grown smaller with increasing rotational speed. In KARI combustion test facility, Ignition and combustion tests were performed by using combustor test rig. In the test results, ignition and combustion efficiency were improved according to increasing rotational speed. The measured radial temperature distribution at the combustor exit shows stable and fairly good distribution.

In this paper, we used Helmholtz solver based on 3D finite element method to quantitatively analyze the effects of change of gain, time delay and time delay spread, which are the main variables of flame transfer function, on combustion instability in gas turbine combustor. The effects of the variable of flame transfer function on the frequency and growth rate, which are the main results of combustion instability, were analyzed by applying the conventional heat release fluctuation model and modified one considering the time spread. The analysis results showed that the change of gain and time delay in the same resonance mode affected the frequency of the given resonance modes as well as growth rate of the feedback instability, however, the effect of time delay spread was not relatively remarkable, compared with the dominant effect of time delay.

The present article deals with the numerical calculations for the inter-spray impingement of two diesel sprays under the conditions of high injection pressure. The Wave model involving the cavitation effect inside the nozzle was used for describing the atomization process. In particular, a hybrid model for drop collision was newly suggested in this study and compared with the O'Rourk's model, which has been widely used for diesel sprays. The impingement angles of 60 and 90 degrees were considered for simulation of non-evaporative diesel sprays. The calculated results for tip penetration were compared with experimental data and the Sauter Mean Diameter(SMD) characteristic was analyzed. It was concluded that the hybrid model slightly shows better agreement with experimental data than the O'Rourke's model. However, the more elaborate study should be needed for better understanding of spray-to-spray impingement phenomena.

In this study, the spray characteristics of blended fuels with biodiesel were investigated. The experiments were performed for the effect of mixing ratio and injection pressures on the spray behavior. Conventional diesel fuel and biodiesel fuel and blended fuels were used as test fuels. Through the spray visualization system, composed of a Halogen lamp and High speed camera. The process of spray injection was visualized. Fuel containing biodiesel has different spray pattern on account of the high viscosity and large surface tension. Through this experimental result, we found that, after solenoid driving pulse generates, the increase of injection pressure enables delay time to get shorter, but the increase of mixing ratio makes delay time lengthen.

Electrospraying comprises the generation of liquid droplets by applying a high voltage to the surface of a liquid. By monitoring the current and the flow rate it was possible to obtain a stable cone jet mode in a given condition. In this work the liquid contained NaCl particles resolved in distilled water. The NaCl particles increased concentration of the ionized solution and thus increased electrical conductivity of the liquid, which was inversely proportional to the flow rate in the cone jet mode. A number of sprayed droplets were sampled and dried enough, and then the size of NaCl particles were measured. The measured droplet diameter was a little larger than two theoretical diameters, Rayleigh diameter and mobility diameter.

본 연구는 중심부에 액체, 외주부에 산화제가 흐르는 기액 동축분류의 유동장에 대한 것이다. 기액 동축 분사기는 연료의 분사량이 적은 소형 연소시스템을 고려하여, 실험은 연공비(W1/Wa)가 0.6 이하를 대상으로, 물과 공기를 사용하여 분사조건에 따른 분무특성과 기액 2상 분무류의 기본구조를 조사하여 액적의 확산, 기액혼합특성에 대하여 검토하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 반경방향 기상속도분포 및 액적유속분포는 분구직경 및 분사조건에 관계없이 정규분포에 가까운 형태를 취하고 있으며, 각각 식 (2) 및 (3)으로 나타낼 수 있다. 기상속도는 반치폭은 축방향에 따라 일정한 구배 (≒4.6)로서 증가하며, 기상만의 단상분류의 구배(≒6)에 비해서 완만하다. 액적유속 반치폭은 축방향에 따라 더욱 완만한 구배(≒3.1)로서 증가한다. 무차원 액적유속분포는 축방향에 따라 일정한 구배(n≒1.5)로서 감소한다. 액적의 확산은 상대적으로 기액유량비가 클수록 효과적으라고는 말할 수 없고, 최대 확산을 이루는 최적의 기액유량비가 존재한다.

In this study digital holographic microscopy system for measurements of 3-D velocities of particles in MR fluid is developed. Holograms are recorded using either a CCD camera with a double pulse laser or a high-speed camera with a continuous laser. To process recorded holograms, the correlation coefficient method is used for focal plane determination of particles. To remove noise and improve the quality of holograms and reconstructed images, a Wiener filter is adopted. The two-threshold and image segmentation methods are used for binary image transformation. For particle pairing, the match probability method is adopted. The developed system will be applied to measurements of the characteristics of unsteady 3-D particle velocities in MR fluids through the next stage of this study.

The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of the spray characteristics on the etching characteristics for the optimization of etching process in the micro fabrication industry. The etching characteristics such as etching rate and etching factor were investigated under different etching conditions. To compare with the etching characteristic, the spray characteristics such as droplet size and velocity were measured by PDA system. The etching rate was increased in case of high spray pressure and in the region of spray center. The etching factor was increased with decrease in the distance from nozzle tip and increase in the etchant temperature. It was found that the spray characteristics were correlated with the etching characteristics.

In-cylinder flows in a motored 3.5L four-valve SI engine were investigated quantitatively using three-component LDV system, to determine how engine configuration affects the flow field. The purpose of this work was to develop quantitative methods which correlate in-cylinder flows to engine performance. For this study, two distinct intake/piston arrangements were used to examine the flow characteristics. Quantification of the flow field was done by calculating two major parameters which are believed to characterize adequately in-cylinder motion. These quantities were turbulent kinetic energy(TKE) and tumble ratio in each plane at each crank angle. The results showed that in-cylinder flow pattern is dominated by the intake effects and two counter rotating vortices, developed during the intake stroke, produced relatively low tumble ratio. Therefore, the applicability of these quantities should be carefully considered when evaluating characteristics resulting from the complex in-cylinder flow motions.

The removal of the dusts in the subway stations, tunnels, factories and buildings becomes issue for comfortable indoor and outdoor conditions. There has been used an automatic self-cleaning filter system to collect the dusts. In general, the collected particles are removed by water spray nozzles. The new design for improving the cleaning efficiency of collected dusts and reducing the supplied water is the concept of the plane array of demister filters and the twin-fluid nozzle for mixing compressed air and water in the automatic self-cleaning filter system. Results show that the cleaning efficiency of twin-nozzle filter systems is 99.1%, compared to 47% in the conventional filter system. Therefore the automatic self-cleaning filter system using twin-fluid nozzle filter systems reduces water supplied in the filter system, and increases cleaning efficiency and drying efficiency.
