액체와 액체를 교반할 경우 혹은 두가지 이상의 상이 함께 반응하는 화학공정의 경 우에서는 비상용성인 액체들을 난류조건하에 분산시켜 섞이게 한다. 부산계로 구성된 중합 반응기의 경우 분산입자의 크기는 최종제품의 생산성 및 품질에 큰 영향을 미치게 되므로 분산입자의 크기를 예측하는 것은 대단히 중요하다. 이러한 분산계에서 분산입자의 크기는 분산입자가 겪는 유동장에 의해 결정된다. 오일/오일 분산계로 이루어진 고분자 유탁액의 난류교반시 유동장은 종종 점성전단 부영역에 속하게 되는데 이경우의 분산입자의 크기를 예측하는 모델에 대한 연구는 별로 이루어지지않았다. 본연구에서는 오일/오일 분산계의 고 분자 유탁액에 대한 분산입자의 크기를 예측하는 모델식을 유체동력학적인 이론을 배경으로 하여 개발하였다. 개발한 모델식을 난류교반을 겪은 오일/오일 분산계를 거쳐 생산된 제품 인 내충격성 폴리스티렌으로 검증하여 모델식의 타당성을 입증하였다.

Wax components can be precipitated when surrounding temperature decreases below wax precipitation temperature (WAT). WAT as well as pour point are important characteristics to evaluate the behavior of waxy oils. In this study, qualitative and quantitative evaluations of waxes in waxy model oils were presented after determining WAT and pour point. In case of anhydrous waxy model oils, ASTM D2500 may be most useful to determine WAT because of the transparent nature of model oils. With same apparatus, ASTM D97 is also applicable to determine the pour point of waxy oils in a serial determination. In case of emulsified model oils, however, it is difficult to measure WAT because of its opaque nature. This study employed FTIR spectroscopy to determine wax precipitation temperature and discussed the effect of emulsion state regarding the values of WAT. Further study would be needed to conclude the effect of water contents to WAT values in case of emulsified waxy oil.

In this study, fluidized-bed pyrolysis has been conducted in order to recover the bitumen contained in the oil sand. Canada Alberta oil sand contains 11.9% of bitumen and the bitumen-derived heavy oil produced in fluidizedbed tends to be upgraded relative to the bitumen. The continuous operation has been performed using $N_2$ as a fluidization gas at 1 atm and $500^{\circ}C$ in a reactor of 170 cm height. The results showed 87.76% of bitumen conversion, where liquid products are 74.45% and gas products are 13.31%. $H_2$, $O_2$, CO, $CO_2$, $CH_4$, and NO and $C_1{\sim}C_4$ hydrocarbons in the gas products were analyzed by on-line gas analyzer and gas chromatography, respectively. The pyrolysis oil was analyzed by using proximate analysis, heavy metal analysis, SIMDIS, asphaltenes, and heating value. By SIMDIS analysis, naphtha was 11.50%, middle distillation was 44.83% and heavy oil was 43.66%. It was obvious that the pyrolysis oil was upgraded compared with bitumens.

PIV measurements of the velocity field, pressure field, vorticity, and turbulent intensity in the rear of curved section of an oil fence with current speed showed that the flow directions in the rear of flow boundary area were similar to those in the front of it. As the current speed increased, the patterns of pressure distribution were changed, and the turbulent flow became more irregular. CFD simulations under the same conditions as the PIV tests showed that the flow patterns of the wake were similar to those by PIV tests in speed of 0.3 m/s and less, but were distinctively deviated from those in 0.4 m/s due to the flexibility of the oil fence, which was not properly taken care of in CFD modeling.

An experimental research has been carried out for flow visualizations of the shock wave/turbulent boundary-layer interaction control utilizing the aeroelastic flaps, Spark shadowgraphs, kerosene-lampblack tracings for the surface streakline pattern, and interference fringe patterns over a thin oil-film applied at the downstream of the shock interactions have been obtained , Effects of variation of the shapes and thicknesses of the flaps are tested, and all the results are compared to the solid-wall reference case without flow-control mechanism , From the qualitative observation of the variation of skin friction utilizing the interference fringe patterns over the silicone oil-film, a strong spanwise variation of the skin friction with a narrow and long region of separation has been noticed near the centerline behind the shock structure, which phenomenon demonstrate a strong three-dimensionality of the shock interaction flows, Influence of the shape of the cavity under the flaps to the shock interaction is also tested, and it is observed that the shape of the cavity is not negligible.

Wax deposition hinders oil flow assurance. Huge amount of money and time were required for mitigation of wax deposition in the oil field. For prediction and mitigation of wax deposition problem, Wax Appearance Temperature(WAT), which is the temperature at which the first wax crystals start to form, needs to be measured in advance. There is a standard method which is optical way to measure the WAT of transparent oil. However, standard method cannot be applied to opaque oil which is common produced oil in the field. In this study, WAT of three transparent oil samples were measured using heat flux variation analysis, viscosity variation analysis and density variation analysis, and compared with WAT measured by standard method. As a result, WAT measured by density variation analysis is the more reliable than heat flux variation analysis and viscosity variation analysis. WAT of two opaque oils were measured using density variation analysis.

A temperature preconditioning that modulates the derivative of density with respect to temperature is proposed to improve the convergence characteristics of the preconditioned Euler equations. Flows in a two-dimensional channel with a 10% circular bump in the middle of the channel were calculated at different speeds. The numerical dissipation terms of the Roe’s FDS scheme according to the temperature preconditioning are derived. It is shown that the temperature preconditioning accelerates convergence of the preconditioned Euler equations.

In the present study, heat transfer characteristics of oil flow over offset strip fins were predicted by the numerical methods. Oil flow in the plate-fin passage was idealized by 2 dimension. Power law scheme and SIMPLE algorithm were used for convective diffusion formulation and pressure term respectively. Governing equations were discretized by control volume formulation. The flow patterns and heat transfer were predicted in details. The convective heat transfer coefficients were affected by separation bubbles which appeared at the wake region of offset strip fins.

In the present study, heat transfer characteristics of oil flow over offset strip fins are predicted by the numerical methods. Oil flow in the plate-fin passage is idealized by 2 dimensions. Inlet velocity, Prandtl number and fin pitch ratio are chosen as parameters which affect the heat transfer of offset strip fins. The effect of parameters on pressure drops and convective heat transfer coefficients are described. Characteristic length is derived in case of 2 dimensional flow situation. Correlations for friction factor and convective heat transfer coefficient are derived.

An experimental research program providing knowledge to measure two-dimensional skin friction variation over a certain region of model surface is presented. In the oil-fringe imaging skin friction(FISF) technique, local slope of a thin oil applied on a test surface is measured from the interference fringe patterns on the oil surface, and its information is then related to the applied shear over the oil by the thin-oil lubrication theory. The FISF technique has been applied for a separation flowfield ahead of a circular cylinder vertically mounted on a flat plate, and it has been found that the FISF skin friction results show good comparison with the other numerical/experimental data obtained for similar conditions. implying an applicability of the technique.
