In this study, the effect of jet velocity profile on the thickness and velocity of the liquid sheet formed by two impinging low speed jets was investigated. To predict the distribution of thickness and velocity of liquid sheet theoretically, the jet velocity profile which was measured experimentally was adopted in addition to the constant jet velocity as well as Poiseuille's parabolic profile. For three cases, the distribution of thickness and velocity of liquid sheet was analytically predicted by solving conservation equations including stagnation point. The predicted results were compared with previous experimental results. The jet velocity profile definitely affected the resulting characteristics of liquid sheet. The distribution of thickness and velocity of liquid sheet was more close to the measured results compared with that which was predicted by the assumption of constant jet velocity.

It is important to predict the behavior of a liquid film around a rotating cylinder in the film coating process of the steel industry. When the cylinder rotates, the behavior of the liquid film on the rotating cylinder surface is influenced by the cylinder diameter, the rotation speed, the gravitational force, and the fluid properties. These parameters determine the liquid film thickness and the rise of the film on the cylinder surface. In the present study, the two-phase interfacial flow of the liquid film on the rotating cylinder were numerically investigated by using a VOF method. For various rotation speeds, cylinder diameters and fluid viscosities, the behavior of liquid film on the rotating cylinder were predicted. Thicker film around the rotating cylinder was observed with an increase in the rotation speed, cylinder diameter, and fluid viscosity. The present results for the film thickness agreed well with available experimental and analytical results.

기존의 이론적 연구와 실험적 연구를 바탕으로 충돌 제트의 수치 모델을 개발하였다. 본 모델은 like-doublet 충돌제트로부터 생성되는 액적의 모든 특성을 액막이 분열되는 시점에서 결정한다. 액적 특성을 결정하기 위해 이론적 연구로부터 얻어진 액막 두께, 액주의 직경, 액적 크기와 실험적 연구로부터 얻어진 액막/액적 속도, 액막 분열 거리, 분열 주파수, 액적 질량 유량 분포를 이용하였다. 액적의 질량 유량 분포는 Laplace 분포로부터 표준 편차를 이용하여 모사하였다. 또한 실험 결과를 이용하여 액막 분열 거리, 분열 주기, 표준 편차에 대한 경험식을 유도하였다. 개발된 모델은 정성적인 분무 패턴뿐만 아니라 정량적인 SMD 및 질량 유량 분포에서 실험 결과와 잘 일치한다.

Both numerical analysis and cold tests for the swirl coaxial type injector were performed to obtain the influence of spray angle, velocity ratio and liquid film thickness for pressure drop and recess. The basic experimental and numerical data obtained in this study can be applicable to the performance design of swirl coaxial type injector. Spray angle was not affected by the applied test pressure drop, but spray angle was affected by tangential velocity ratio and shape factors. Feasibility of numerical analysis for the liquid film thickness and spray angle was confirmed, and the change of liquid film thickness by tangential velocity ratio affected more seriously than pressure drop, and liquid film thickness was decreased with increasing tangential velocity ratio.

In this research, the velocity distribution of the liquid sheet formed by two impinging jets at low velocities are measured using LDV. The spatial distribution of the sheet velocity as well as the effects of impinging anlge and jet velocity on the sheet velocity are examined. The sheet velocity is highest along the sheet axis and it decreases with the increase of the azimuthal angle. With the increase of the impinging angle, the average sheet velocity is decreased due to the increased impact momentum. The average sheet velocity is proportional to the jet velocity but it is always higher than the jet velocity. This result is against the fact that the sheet velocity can be assumed to be equal to the jet velocity in the previous researches.

The spatial distribution of the sheet velocity as well as the effects of impinging angle and jet velocity are examined. The sheet velocity is the highest along the sheet axis and it decreases with the increase of the azimuthal angle. With the increase of the impinging angle, however, the difference of sheet velocity on the liquid sheet is decreased. The average sheet velocity is proportional to the jet velocity but it is always higher than the jet velocity as against the fact that the sheet velocity can be assumed to be equal to the jet velocity in the previous researches.

To measure the physical parameters of the simple microlayer model for the prediction of the heat flux and heat transfer rate due to the evaporation of the microlayer during nucleate boiling, the microlayer geometry was experimentally examined. The parameters, including initial thickness, moving velocity and microlayer radius, were measured by total reflection and interferometry techniques using a laser. Single-bubble nucleate boiling experiments were conducted using saturated water on a horizontal surface under atmospheric pressure. The geometric characteristics of the microlayer underneath the bubbles periodically nucleating at a nucleation site at an average heat flux of $200kW/m^2$ were analyzed. The experimental results in the present study show that the maximum initial thickness of the microlayer and the horizontal moving velocity are $5.4{\mu}m$ and 0.12 m/s, respectively.

액체 분무가 벽면의 평평한 면에 충돌할 때의 거동에 대해 실험을 통하여 조사하였다. 각 분사노즐과 벽면까지의 거리 그리고 분사 속도에 있어서 충돌점에서의 액체 액막의 비산 거동과 평면에서의 액막의 흐름에 대하여 관찰하였다. 충돌점에서 비산하는 액적의 비산율을 정량적으로 측정하였다. 분사속도가 증가에 의해 충돌 거동은 5개의 영역으로 분류되며, 분사속도가 증가하면 비산율도 증가하게 된다. 또한, 충돌거리가 분무의 분열점보다 길때의 분사량의 약 반 정도가 비산하게 되는 결과가 얻어졌다.

고속기류에 의한 수표면의 유통은 호수나 강에서 흔히 볼 수 있는 물리적인 현상으로서 기류의 속도가 증가함에 따라서 수표면에서 액적이 발생하게 되는 이른바 액체미립화 현상(atomization )이 일어나게 된다. 이러한 액체의 미립화는 내연기관에서의 분무연소에서 부터 가정에서 습도를 유지하는 가습기 및 살충제분무기에 이르기까지 그 운용도가 매우 광범위하며 최근에 이르러 액체미립화가 유체역학의 한 부분을 차지하는 단계에까지 이르러 매년 각국에서 미립화에 대한 심포지움이 개최되고 있으며 연구실적면에서는 미국보다도 오히려 가까운 일본에서 미립화에 대한 연구가 더 활발히 진행되고 있는 반면 아직 우리나라에서는 이렇다할 연구가 없으며 미립 화에 관한 논문도 불과 한두 편에 이르는 실정이다. 이러한 중요한 물리적인 현상에 대해 좀더 자세한 이해를 위해서는 액체와 기체의 상호접촉면에서의 정량적인 특성에 대한 연구가 필요하며 이러한 정량적 인자에는 (1) 액막의 평균두께 (2) 액막내의 속도분포, (3) 액막표면의 파고, 파장의 파면구조, (4)기체중의 속도분포 등이 있다.

Liquid film flows are classified into waveless laminar, wavy laminar, and turbulent flows depending on the Reynolds number or the flow stability. Since the wavy motions of the film flows are so intricate and nonlinear, studies on them have largely been experimental. Most numerical approaches have been limited to the waveless flow regime. The various free surface-tracking schemes adopted for this problem were used to more accurately estimate the average film thickness, rather than to capture the unsteady wavy motion. In this study, the wavy motions in laminar wavy liquid film flows with Reynolds numbers of 200-1000 were simulated with various numerical schemes based on the volume of fluid (VOF) method for interface tracking. The results from each numerical scheme were compared with the experimental results in terms of the average film thickness, the wave velocity, and the wave amplitude.
