The effective unsaturated hydraulic conductivity in stratified soils is evaluated using a three-dimensional stochastic approach. Because of the disparity of the correlation scales in a stratified soil, the general stochastic equations are simplified. This allows analytical evaluation of generic expressions for the effective hydraulic conductivities. Simple asymptotic expressions, valid at particular ranges(wetting front, drying condition, wetting condition) of the mean flow characteristics, are also derived. An example of applying the derived theoretical result to a imaginaryl clay soil is presented. It reveals found that the effective unsaturated hydraulic conductivity showed large-scale hysteresis. Such large-scale hysteresis was produced by the spatial variability of hydraulic soil properties rather than hysteresis of the local parameters. In addition the results show that the effective hydraulic conductivities were larger in the case of accommodating heterogeneity of soil preperties rather than neglecting heterogeneity of soil properties.

This work investigates the potential of in-cylinder thermal stratification and fuel stratification for extending the operating ranges in HCCI engines, and the coupling between thermal stratification and fuel stratification. Computational results areemployed. The computations were conducted using both a custom multi-zone version and the standard single-zone version of the Senkin application of the CHEMKINII kinetics rate code, and kinetic mechanism for di-methyl ether (DME). This study shows that the potential of thermal stratification and fuels stratification for extending the high-load operating limit by a staged combustion event with reduced pressure-rise rates is very large. It was also found that those stratification offers good potential to extend low-load limit by a same mechanism in high-load. However, a combination of thermal stratification and fuel stratification is not more effective than above stratification techniques for extending the operating ranges showing similar results of fuel stratification. Sufficient condition for combustion (enough temperature for) turns misfire in low-load limit to operate engines, which also leads to knock in high-load limit abruptly due to the too high temperature with high. DME shows a potential for maximizing effect of stratification to lower pressure-rise rate due to the characteristics of low-temperature heat release.

기후변화에 관한 정부 간 패널 IPCC의 4차 보고서에 의하면 지난 100년간 지구 평균 기온의 선형추세선 기울기가 $0.74^{\circ}C$/년을 보이고 있으며 21세기말 지구의 평균기온은 최대 $6.3^{\circ}C$까지 더 상승할 것으로 전망하고 있다. 이러한 대기기온의 상승은 저수지 및 하천의 수온과 밀접한 관계를 지니는데, 저수지 표층 수온 및 유입 하천의 수온을 증가시켜 저수지 수온 성층형성시기를 앞당겨 성층화 기간을 증가시키고 또한 성층강도도 증가하게 된다. 이러한 수온성층기간 및 강도의 증가는 심수층의 용존산소 고갈과 이에 따른 퇴적층의 영양염류 용출량을 증가시켜 저수지 수질관리에 어려움을 야기할 것으로 전망되고 있다. 특히 온대기후대에 속하는 우리나라의 대부분의 대형 인공 저수지는 여름철 뚜렷한 수온성층구조가 확인되고 있어 대기기온 상승이 수온성층구조에 미치는 영향을 분석하는 것은 미래 기후변화에 대비한 저수지 수질관리 전략 수립을 위해 필요한 기초 연구라 판단되어진다. 본 연구에서는 2차원 횡방향 평균 수치모형(CE-QUAL-W2)을 활용하여 대기 온도 변화에 따른 충주호의 수온분포를 모의하고 수온 성층구조의 변동경향을 분석하였다. 지구 온난화 영향 모의에 앞서 2010년과 2008년의 충주호 수문조건에 모형을 적용하여 수온 성층구조의 재현성을 확인하였다. 미래 대기기온 자료는 국립기상연구소에서 제공하는 한반도 기후전망 모의자료(RCM) 중 충주댐 유역의 평균 기온자료를 수집하여 사용하였으며, 모의연도는 2011, 2040, 2070, 2100으로 하였다. 또한, 대기기온과 유입수온 자료를 제외한 모든 입력자료는 보정년도인 2010년과 동일하다고 가정하여 대기기온 변화의 영향만을 고려하였다. 2011년에 비해 2100년의 대기기온이 연평균 $2.44^{\circ}C$ 증가하였을 때 표층수온은 평균 $1.72^{\circ}C$, 최대 $4.31^{\circ}C$ 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며, 심층수온은 평균 $0.36^{\circ}C$, 최대 $1.33^{\circ}C$ 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 성층구조 형성기간의 비교를 위해 표층과 심층의 수온이 $5^{\circ}C$ 이상의 차이를 보이는 기간을 조사한 결과 2011년에 비해 2100년에서 5일 일찍 시작되어 11일 더 지속되는 것으로 나타났다.

The HCCI engine is a next generation engine, with high efficiency and low emissions. The engine may be an alternative to SI and DI engines; however, a pressure rise rate is a major limitation for high load range and power reduction. Recently, we were able to reduce the pressure rise rate using thermal stratification. Nevertheless, this was insufficient to produce high power. In this study, the reduction of the pressure rise rate using thermal stratification was confirmed and the HCCI engine power was increased using the boost pressure. The rate and engine power were produced by CHEMKIN and modified SENKIN. As a result of increasing the boost pressure, a higher IMEP was attained while the pressure rise rate increased only slightly in the HCCI with thermal stratification.

This study investigates the effects of the DME and n-Butane mixture and of the stratification on combustion characteristics of HCCI engine by chemical reaction calculation. First, the existing DME reaction scheme and n-Butane is combined to make new chemical reaction model, then validating the effectiveness of new scheme. Furthermore, this study verify the HCCI combustion characteristics according to the changes of DME and n-Butane mixture ratio, which shows different auto ignition characteristics. Finally, it confirms the effects of stratification of mixture fuel on the reduction of pressure rise rate.

A multi-zone model was used to predict the operating range of homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engine, the boundaries of the operating range were determined by knock (presented by ring intensity), misfire (presented by sensitivity of indicated mean effective pressure to the initial temperature). A HCCI engine fueled with Di-Methyl Ether (DME) was simulated under different initial temperature and equivalence ratios, and the operating range was well produced by the model. Furthermore, the model was applied to develop the operating range for thermal stratification in the preceding condition of initial temperature and equivalence ratios. The computations were conducted using Senkin application of the CHEMKINII kinetics rate code.

This study analyzed stratification and destratification processes in the Kangjin Bay (KB), South Sea, Korea, driven by the Nam Gang Dam water discharge based on numerical modeling experiments. Model performances were evaluated in terms of skill scores for elevation, velocity, temperature and salinity, with scores mostly exceeding 90%. The models reproduced the tidal current, density-driven and wind-driven current. The stratification by fresh water input and destratification by the wind mixing was assessed in terms of the characteristic Richardson number (Ri) in that Ri increased from 0 to 7~20 during the Dam water discharge period, while vertical mixing and destratification followed by the typhoon passage showed Ri, 0 to 2.

Characteristics of thermal flow stratification were studied experimentally by using the small scale pressurizer-surge line model. Thermal flow stratifications in the horizontal section of surge line were analyzed by the relation between the maximum temperature difference at any cross section in surge line and the Froude number representing the boundary conditions, i.e., in/out surge flow velocity and temperature difference of system. Thermal flow stratifications in outsurge flow decreased inversely proportional to the Froude number and did not exist for Fr>1. In insurge flow thermal flow stratifications disappeared near Fr=1.5, but resulted in the higher temperature difference than the case of outsurge flow.
