Since arterial disease in the upper extremity is less common than that in the lower extremity, experimental and numerical investigations related to upper extremity have been rarely performed. We created a three-dimensional model of the arteries, larger than approximately 1 mm, in a Korean adult's left hand (from brachial to digital arteries), from 3T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data. For the first time, a three-dimensional computational fluid dynamic method was employed to investigate blood flow velocity, blood pressure variation, and wall shear stress (WSS) on this complicated artery system. Investigations were done on physiological blood flows near the branches of radial and deep palmar arch arteries, and ulnar and superficial palmar arch arteries. The flow is assumed to be laminar and the fluid is assumed to be Newtonian, with density and viscosity properties of plasma.

An experimental study of the vortical flow characteristics around a yawed delta wing with the leading edge extension at high incidence angle is undertaken by upper surface pressure measurements. A special emphasis has been put on analyzing the basic physics of vortical flows, concerning the effects of incidence and sideslip angle on the aerodynamic characteristics of the wing, especially under high angle of attack. The experimental data has been dearly demonstrated the beneficial effect of the LEX vortex on the wing vortex. It leads to an essential stabilization of the wing vortex against its breakdown until at much higher incidence angle under small sideslip. An interesting flow feature is occurrence of the rolling moment reversal at a certain range of angle of attack and sideslip angle.

In this study, new materials and shapes for a residential humidifying element were investigated. These elements could replace the current Japanese folded-type rayon/PE elements. Samples were taken from three different materials - rayon/PET (50:50), kraft/PET (40:60), kraft/PET/carbon. Results showed that the humidification efficiencies of the new samples were lower than those of the Japanese product. The efficiencies were 59% for the Japanese product (rayon/PET), 62% for kraft/PET and 84% for kraft/PET/carbon. This could be due to lower rayon or kraft content in the present samples than that in the Japanese product. However, pressure drops in the present samples were significantly lower than that in the Japanese product, due to improved channel configuration. The humidification capacity at the same pumping power ($j_m/f^{1/3}$) was 60% to 82% higher for the kraft/PET/carbon sample compared with the Japanese product. Furthermore, the results are compared with theoretical predictions.

Recent trends in slim air conditioners require heat exchangers of reduced flow depth. In this study, slim louver fin geometry was obtained using predictive correlations. The deduced geometry yielded 10 mm flow depth, 0.9 mm louver pitch, and $35^{\circ}$ louver angle. Samples were made and tests were conducted. The new slim sample yielded 36% higher j factor and 2.3% higher f factor compared with those of the standard sample. This implies that 26% reduction of heat exchanger volume was possible by reducing the flow depth. In addition, the $j/f^{1/3}$ of the slim sample was 55% larger than that of the standard sample. Furthermore, the results are compared with predictions made using existing correlations.

The basic principle of underwater ram-jet as a unique marine propulsion concept showing vary high cruise speed range(e. g. 80-100 knots) is the thrust production by the transfer of the potential energy of compressed gas to the operating liquid through kinetic mixing process. This paper is aimed to investigate the propulsive efficiency of the nozzle flow in underwater ram-jet at the speed of 80 knots for the buried type vessel. The basic assumption of the theoretical analysis is that mixture of water and air can be treated as incompressible gas. For an optimized nozzle configuration obtained from the performance analysis, preliminary data for performance evaluation are obtained and effects of nozzle inner wall friction, ambient temperature, ambient pressure, water density, gas velocity, bubble radius, flow velocity, diffuser area ratio, mass flow ratio and water velocity gradient are investigated.

펄스 직류 전원 $BCl_3/SF_6$ 플라즈마를 이용하여 GaAs/$Al_{0.2}Ga_{0.8}As$의 선택적 식각을 연구하였다. 식각 주요 공정 변수는 $BCl_3/SF_6$ 플라즈마에서 $SF_6$ 가스 유량(0~50%)이었다. $BCl_3/SF_6$의 총 가스 유량은 20 sccm이었다. 다른 공정 조건인 공정 압력(100 mTorr), 펄스 파워(500 V), 펄스 주파수(200 kHz), 리버스 시간 (0.7 ${\mu}s$)은 일정하게 고정시켰으며 기계적 펌프만을 이용하여 공정을 진행하였다. 오실로스코프(Oscilloscope) 데이터에 의하면 가스의 조성 변화에도 척에 걸리는 입력 전압과 전류가 거의 변화가 없었다. $BCl_3/SF_6$ 가스가 10%의 조성에서 GaAs와 $Al_{0.2}Ga_{0.8}As$의 식각 선택비가 약 48 : 1로 우수한 결과를 나타내었다. 그러나 $BCl_3/SF_6$ 가스의 증가는 GaAs의 식각율과 선택도를 감소시켰다. 그리고 $SF_6$ 가스의 조성비가 30% 이상일 경우에는 GaAs와 $Al_{0.2}Ga_{0.8}As$가 식각되지 않았다. 식각 후에 GaAs의 표면 거칠기(RMS surface roughness)는 0.7~1.3 nm로 나타났다. 위의 결과들을 종합적으로 보면 펄스 직류 전원 $BCl_3/SF_6$의 조성비가 10%일 때 가장 좋은 식각 선택비를 얻을 수 있었다.

The water vapor weighted vertically mean temperature(Tm) models, which were developed by the consideration of seasonal characteristics over the Korea, was used in the retrieval of precipitable water vapor (PWV) from GPS data which were observed at four GPS permanent stations. Since the weighted mean temperature relates to the water vapor pressure and temperature profile at a site, the accuracy of water vapor information which were estimated from GPS tropospheric wet delay is proportional to the accuracy of the weighted mean temperature. The adaption of Korean seasonal weighted mean temperature model, as an alternative to other formulae which are suggested from other nation, provides an improvement in the accuracy of the GPS PWV estimation. Therefore, it can be concluded that the seasonally appropriate weighted mean temperature model, which is used to convert actual zenith wet delay (ZWD) to the PWV, can be more reduced the relative biases of PWV estimated from GPS signal delays in the troposphere than other annual model, so that it would be useful for GPS PWV estimation with high accuracy.

A binary system of 1-propanol and bromochloromethane which exhibits an azeotropic point and a considerable nonideal phase behavior probably due to the large boiling point difference is not amenable in the actual chemical processes such as the distillation tower and absorber. Therefore, experimental data of phase behavior data of this mixture are indispensable in understanding the inherent thermodynamic characteristics for an efficient application of the system in the industrial processes. In this work, the isobaric vapor-liquid equilibrium of a binary mixture consisting of 1-propanol and bromochloromethane was measured by using a recirculating equilibrium cell at various pressures ranging from 30 to 70 kPa. The measured VLE data were correlated in a satisfactory manner by using the UNIQUAC and NRTL models along with the thermodynamic consistency test based on Gibbs/Duhem equation. In addition, the excess molar volume of the mixture was also measured by using a vibrating densitometer and correlated with a Redlich-Kister polynomial.

In this study, a computer simulation has been performed for the refrigeration cycle using mixed refrigerants in order to decrease the process stream temperature to $-20^{\circ}C$. Refrigerant supply temperature was assumed to be $-30^{\circ}C$ considering the temperature difference as $10^{\circ}C$ with process stream. Peng-Robinson equation of state model was selected for the computer simulation. A new alpha function proposed by Twu et al was used for an accurate prediction of pure component vapor pressure experimental data. One fluid mixing rules were used for the estimation of mixture vapor-liquid equilibria calculations. A commercial process simulator, PRO/II with PROVISION was utilized for the simulation of the overall refrigeration process. In order to minimize the compressor power consumption, we have optimized the two-stage compression system by varying the first stage compressor outlet pressure. Finally, we could obtain the minimum total power 755.7kW at the first stage compressor outlet pressure, 6 bar.
