An experimental study on the behavior of droplets impinging on a solid flat surface was carried out in the present study. Breakup of a liquid droplet impinging on a solid surface has been investigated experimentally for various liquids with different properties. The liquid droplet temperature and incident angle were chosen as major parameters. Liquid droplet temperature and incident angle varied in the range from $-20{\circ}C\;to\;30{\circ}C\;and\;from\;30{\circ}\;to\;60{\circ},$ respectively. It was found that the variation of droplet temperature influences upon the mean diameter and uniformity of droplets which were bounced out from the solid surface. With increase of incident angle the dispersion mass fraction increases, causing the decrease of liquid film flow rate. As the liquid temperature increases, dispersion mass fraction increases since the surface tension decreases.

The water droplet motion and the interaction between the droplets in a PEMFC air flow channel with multiple pores, through which water emerges, is studied numerically by solving the equations governing the conservation of mass and momentum. The liquid-gas interface is tracked by a level set method which is based on a sharp-interface representation for accurately imposing the matching conditions at the interface. The method is modified to implement the contact angle conditions on the walls and pores. The dynamic interaction between the droplets growing on multiple pores while keeping the total water flow rate through pores constant is investigated by conducting the computations until the droplet motion exhibits a periodic pattern. The numerical results show that the droplet merging caused by increasing the number of pores is not effective for water removal and that the contact angle of channel wall strongly affects water management in the PEMFC air flow channel.

A vaporization model for single component fuel droplet has been developed for applying to sub- and supercritical conditions. This model can account for transient liquid heat ins and circulation effect inside the droplet, forced and natural convection, Stefan flow effect, real gas effect and ambient gas solubility into the liquid droplet in high-pressure conditions. Thermodynamic and transport properties are calculated as functions of temperature and pressure in both phases. Numerical calculations are carried out for several validation cases with the detailed experimental data. Numerical results confirm that this supercritical vaporization model is applicable to the high-pressure conditions encountered in the combustion processes of diesel engine.

The droplet ejection behavior from drop-on-demand printhead are investigated numerically in terms of the non-dimensional parameters. The numerical simulation is performed using a volume-of-fluid model. It is important to eject droplet within the printability range, where the droplet is ejected in stable manner without satellite droplets. Generally, the printability range has been determined by Z number, which is the inverse of Oh number. However, it is found that the ejection of droplets with same Z number can exhibit different behavior depending on the value of Ca and We number. Therefore, it is insufficient to determine the printability range only with Z number. Instead, other non-dimensional parameters, such as Ca and We number, should be considered comprehensively.

The idea of $CO_2$ sequestration in the ocean is proposed to be an effective mitigation strategy to counteract potential global warming due to the greenhouse effect Therefore, in the present study, calculations of the dissolution behavior of $CO_2$ hydrate when liquid carbon dioxide is released at 1,000m and 1,500m in depth are performed. The results show the liquid $CO_2$ injected in the ocean becomes $CO_2$ bubble at between 350m and 500m in depth, and the injection from a moving ship is a more effective method of dissolution than through a fixed pipeline. It so also noted that the ultimate plume generated from $CO_2$ bubbles repeats expansion and shrinking due to the peel ins from a fixed pipeline.

실제의 흡기관에서는 단면이 일정한 직관이 아니며, 피스톤기관의 흡기관은 단면변화가 불가피하여 액적은 소성으로 인한 관벽과의 충돌로 부착하게 되고 액적부유율은 더욱 작게 된다는 D.A. Trayser, W.E. Ranz등의 보고가 있다. 또 보제행남들은 액막류의 발생이 유해배기 가스를 증가시키고 액막류의 감소는 기통사이의 연료분배의 불균일도를 저하시키므로 NOx, HC, CO가 크게 감소된다고 보고하였다. 이와같이 액막유의 존재는 각 실린더에 유입하는 연료의 질적차이를 가져오기 때문에 액막유를 분리제거하는 방법의 연구도 많이 이루어지고 있으나 아직 실용상에 문제가 많은 것으로 남아있다. 따라서 본 고에서는 이와같이 문제되고 있는 흡기관내 액막유동의 거동을 고찰하기 위하여 액막두께 변동을 측정하는 방법에 대하여 저자들이 사용하였던 방법과 그외 초음파를 이용한 액막두께 측정법을 소개하고자 한다.

In this study, the behavior of water or nanofluid droplets impacting upon a hot surface was investigated by visualization of impacting phenomena with time-delayed photographic technique. Changing the mass ratio of nanofluid and the temperature of the heated surface, the characteristics of the spreading behavior and the diameter of spreading liquid film was compared between water and nanofluid droplets. The impacting droplet spreaded as a liquid film after impact and nanofluid droplets spreaded more widely than water droplets. After reaching the maximum diameter, water droplets shrinked more than nanofluid droplets. Based on this, the heat transfer area from a hot surface to impacting nanofluid droplets would be wider than that of impacting water droplets. Considering individual impacting droplet only, spray cooling using nanofluid would be better than using water.

벽면에 충돌하는 액체 분무의 충돌 거동과 액적 비산에 관하여 실험을 통하여 조사하였다. 액체 분무는 홀노즐에 의해 직경 40mm의 충돌판에 분사하게 된다. 액체 분무는 반경방향으로 퍼져나가 5개의 영역으로 분류되어 나타내게 된다. 난류 혹은 층류 분무의 경우, 충돌판에 충돌한 후 두꺼운 액막을 형성하게 되며, 이러한 상태에서 충돌하는 분무의 비산량은 매우 적으며 충돌 거리에 영향을 받지 않는다. 한편, 파동이 있는 분무의 충돌은 수력도약(Hydraulic jump)과 함께 반경방향으로 엷은 액막을 형성하게 되며 비산율도 증가하게 된다. 액체분무의 초속도가 증가하면 비산율도 증가하게 된다. 분열이 일어난 후에 충돌하는 파동 분무의 비산율은 분열이 일어나기 전에 비해 약 2~3배 정도 크게 나타난다. 비산율은 웨버수(Weber number)를 이용하여 요약할 수가 있다.

전기습윤이란 고체 표면에 형성된 액적에 전기장을 인가하게 되면 액적과 표면의 계면에너지 감소로 인해 접촉각이 변화되는 현상을 말한다. 이 현상은 전자종이 구현에 응용이 모색되고 있으며, 다초점 렌즈, 마이크로 프리즘, 반사형 디스플레이 등에도 응용될 수 있다. 전기습윤현상의 응용 가능성이 현실화됨에 따라 최근 여러 표면에서의 전기습윤 현상이 연구되고 있다. 예를 들면, 나노 구조로 형성된 실리콘 기판에서 molten salt (1-ethyl-3-methyl-1-H-imidazolium tetrafluoroborate)에 22 V를 인가하면 약 $180^{\circ}$에서 $110^{\circ}$로 접촉각변화를, cyclopentanol에 50 V를 인가하면 표면에 완전히 퍼지는 현상이 보고된 바 있고, 배열된 Carbon Nanotube 박막에서는 탈이온수와 0.03 M NaCl 용액에 대해서 0~50 V를 가해줌에 따라 각각 $155^{\circ}$에서 $90^{\circ}$, $130^{\circ}$에서 $50^{\circ}$로의 접촉갑 변화가 있음이 관찰되었다. 본 연구에서는 화학적으로 안정하고 그 활용도가 매우 광범위한 실리카 코팅층을 전기분무증착법(electrospray deposition)을 이용해 형성하고, 코팅층의 표면 거칠기와 구조, 전기절연층의 두께 등에 따른 전기습윤 현상 거동을 조사하였다.
