Flame structure and extinction mechanism of counterflow methane/air non-premixed flame diluted with nitrogen are studied by NASA 2.2 s drop tower experiments and two-dimensional numerical simulations with finite rate chemistry and transport properties. Extinction mechanism at low strain rate is examined through the comparison among results of microgravity experiment, 1D and 2D simulations with a finite burner diameter. A two-dimensional simulation in counterflow flame especially with a finite burner diameter is shown to be very important in explaining the importance of multidimensional effects and lateral heat loss in flame extinction, effects that cannot be understood using a one-dimensional flamelet model. Extinction mechanism at low strain rate is quite different from that at high strain rate. Low strain rate flame is extinguished initially at the outer flame edge, the flame shrinks inward, and finally is extinguished at the center. It is clarified from the overall fractional contribution by each term in energy equation to heat release rate that the contribution of radiation fraction with 1D and 2D simulations does not change so much and the overall fractional contribution is decisively attributed to radial conduction ('lateral heat loss'). The experiments by Maruta et at. can be only completely understood if multi-dimensional heat loss effects are considered. It is, as a result, verified that the turning point, which is caused only by pure radiation heat loss, has to be shifted towards much lower global strain rate in microgravity flame.

본 연구에서는 전기온돌의 안방열손실을 감소시키고 축열효과를 향상시키기 위한 방법을 검토하였으며 전기온돌에서 발생하는 진동소음을 감살시킬 수 있는 대책을 제시하였다. 저육들은 6.6[m$^{2}$] 크기의 전기온돌 model을 이용하여 건물의 구조차이와 하향열단열층의 설치유무에 따른 보온특성의 차이를 기록분석하였으며 그 결과 열전도계수가 0.03[kcal/m.hr.deg. C]정도인 내열성 Styropol과 지석 Mortar로 구성된 하향열단열층을 전기온돌의 마닥에 설치할 경우 난방부하의 감소로 인하여 축열효율이 약 2배나 향상된다는 결론을 얻었다. 또한 전기온돌공사시에 발열선을 지지할 수 있는 대각선형 Spacer를 설치하고 발열선이 매설콘크리트가 완전히 양생된 이후에 전력을 인가하면 흔히 전기온돌에서 발생하는 120-960[Hz]의 가청진동소음을 방지할 수 있다는 사실을 실험적으로 확인하였다.

In this study, a multi-layer cascade (MLC) electrical array configuration method for thermoelectric generator consisting of plural number of thermoelectric modules (TEMs) was proposed to reduce mismatch loss caused by temperature maldistribution on the surfaces of the TEMs. To validate the effect of MLC on the mismatch loss reduction, a numerical model capable of reflecting multi-physics phenomena occuring in the TEMs was developed. MLC can be employed by placing a group of TEMs experiencing relatively low temperature differences in an electric layer with more electrical branches while locating a group of TEMs experiencing relatively high temperature differences in an electric layer with less electrical branches. The TEMs were classified using the temperature distribution obtained by the numerical model. A MLC with an optimal electrical branch ratio showed a 96.5% of electric power generation compared to an ideal case.

In this study, a design methodology for thermoacoustic refrigerator systems is proposed based on the thermal conduction and acoustic theories, and physical characteristics of an actual thermoacoustic refrigerator are investigated. Especially, the resonator is designed for minimizing the energy loss at cold end, and the position and length of the capillary stack are optimized in order to get a large temperature difference between hot and cold ends. Experimental results show that a maximun temperature difference of 22.7$^{\circ}$ and a temperature of 4.3$^{\circ}$C at cold end are obtained by supplying an electrical input of 33W without any thermal load at cold end.

Various time series representation methods have been proposed for efficient time series clustering and classification. Lin et al. (DMKD, 15, 107-144, 2007) proposed a symbolic aggregate approximation (SAX) method based on symbolic representations after approximating the original time series using piecewise local mean. The performance of SAX therefore depends heavily on how well the piecewise local averages approximate original time series features. SAX equally divides the entire series into an arbitrary number of segments; however, it is not sufficient to capture key features from complex, large-scale time series data. Therefore, this paper considers data-adaptive local constant approximation of the time series using the unbalanced Haar wavelet transformation. The proposed method is shown to outperforms SAX in many real-world data applications.

Fire extinguishing composite materials based on low-viscosity epoxy resin (EP) and containing 50 wt% of encapsulated fire extinguishing agent (EFA) have been studied. The positive effect of the EP on the kinetics and temperature of the EFA decapsulation was established. The EP increases the decapsulation temperature of the EFA from 130 ℃ to 155 ℃ and changes the kinetics of the decapsulation. The epoxy matrix increases the thermal stability of the EFA more than 3.9 times compared to that of the pure EFA. The protective effect of the EP on the storage stability of the EFA was validated. The mass loss of EP-containing EFA at 60 ℃ and 80% humidity over 96 h is 0.4%. The mass loss of pure EFA under the same conditions is 15%. A similar effect was observed under ultraviolet radiation: the EP-containing EFA loses 0.8% at pure EFA mass of 6%. The testing of alternative polymer matrixes has been considered.

Experiments were conducted to study the transition of shrinking flame disk to flame hole in counterflow diffusion flames. The studies of transition are well described by varying burner diameters, global strain rate and velocity ratio. It is experimentally verified that radial conduction heat loss is affected at even high strain rate flames for appropriately small burner diameters. It is also shown that flame extinction modes are grouped into three and particularly, hole or stripe is observed in sufficiently high strain rate flames. There exists critical radius according to burner diameter which divide flame extinction modes into three parts.

The suppression mechanisms of carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) as a representative fire suppression agent were revisited using a counterflow diffusion flame which could be applied the concept of a local application system. To end this, the low strain rate $CH_4$/air counterflow diffusions with $CO_2$ addition in either fuel or oxidizer stream were examined numerically using detailed-kinetic chemistry. Radiative heat loss due to radiating gas species including $CO_2$ added was considered by the optically thin model (OTM). As a result, the critical $CO_2$ volume fractions in the oxidizer stream required to extinguish the flame were in good agreement with the experimental data reported in the literature, while somewhat under-prediction was observed with $CO_2$ added in the fuel stream. The surrogate agents were adopted to estimate the quantitative contribution with changing in global strain rate ($a_g$) on the flame extinguishment among pure dilution effect, thermal effects including radiation heat loss and chemical effect due to the $CO_2$ fire suppression agent.

터어빈 블레이드의 경우 제작 또는 설계상의 이유로 뭉툭한 끝단을 가질 수밖에 없게 되는데, 이로 인하여 같은 터보기계인 압축기 블레이드의 경우와는 다르게 블레이드 끝단에서 끝단 와류(Trailing edge vortex)가 발생하게 된다. 이 와류는 블레이드의 손실 증가, 고주파 음파의 생성, 국부적으로 매우 큰 열 전달 및 에너지분산 등 터빈 블레이드의 성능에 좋지 못한 영향을 미치게 된다. 또한 와류와 충격파와의 간섭효과 둥이 존재하는 경우에는 매우 복잡한 유동장을 형성하며 심한 유동 구배가 존재하게 되므로 고해상도의 수치해석 방법이 아니고서는 이를 수치적으로 해석하기가 쉽지 않다.(중략)
