Numerical analysis has been carried out to investigate the fully developed flow and heat transfer characteristics of a plate heat exchanger. Multi-cell models with an inlet part and outlet part are used to perform the numerical simulation. The plate heat exchanger is characterized by a chevron angle of $20^{\circ}$ and a P/H ratio of 2.0~4.0. The working fluid is water and the Reynolds numbers range from 300 to 1,500. The correlation is given in the form of $f=CRe^m$ for the friction factor and $j=CRe^m$ for the Colburn factor. It is found that the fully developed flow starts from the third cell and the Nusselt number increases with decreasing P/H ratios.

Experiments on laminar mixed convection in a vertical pipe were performed for the Re range 1,000-3,000, the $Gr_H$ range $10^5-10^8$, the Pr range 2,000-7,000, and aspect ratio range 1-7. Using the analogy concept, heat transfer systems were simulated by mass transfer systems. A cupric acid.copper sulfate electroplating system was adopted as the mass transfer system, and the mass transfer rates were measured. The measured Nu values were far greater than those previously reported because of the large value of pr in this experiment. As the aspect ratio in this study was not sufficiently large for the flow to be fully developed, the test results were similar to those for mixed convection on a vertical plate rather than that inside a long vertical pipe. It was concluded that the behavior of laminar mixed convection of a developing flow in a vertical pipe at a low aspect ratio and low $Gr_H$ is similar to that of laminar mixed convection in the vertical plate. As the aspect ratio and $Gr_H$ increase, the laminar mixed convection phenomena becomes similar to that observed in a fully developed flow in the vertical pipe.

A numerical study on the quantitative analogy between the fully developed turbulent flow in a straight square duct rotating about an axis perpendicular to that of the duct and that in a stationary curved duct of square cross-section is carried out. In order to clarify the similarity of the two flows, dimensionless parameters K(sub)TR=Re(sup)1/4/√Ro and Rossby number, Ro, in a rotating straight duct flow were used as a set corresponding to K(sub)TC=Re(sup)1/4/√λ and curvature ratio, λ, in a stationary curved duct flow so that they have the same dynamical meaning as those of the fully developed laminar flows. For the large values of Ro or λ, it is shown that the flow field satisfies the asymptotic invariance property, that is, there are strong quantitative similarities between the two flows such as flow patterns and friction factors for the same values of K(sub)TR and K(sub)TC.

Thermally fully developed and thermally developing laminar flows of a Bingham plastic in a circular pipe have been studied analytically. For thermally fully developed flow, the Nusselt numbers and temperature profiles are presented in terms of the yield stress and Peclet number, proposing a correlation formula between the Nusselt number and the Peclet number. The solution to the Graetz problem has been obtained by using the method of separation of variables, where the resulting eigenvalue problem is solved approximately by using the method of weighted residuals. The effects of the yield stress, Peclet and Brinkman numbers on the Nusselt number are discussed.

Two-dimensional laminar numerical analyses were carried out for investigating the thermo-hydraulic characteristics of wavy channels with different shape parameters ($0.5{\leq}{\in}{\leq}1.5$, $0.1{\leq}{\gamma}{\leq}0.4$). PAO (polyalphaolefin), which is used for electronics cooling, is considered as the working fluid. In addition, constant properties, periodically developed flow, and uniform channel wall temperature conditions are assumed. Streamline and temperature fields, isothermal Fanning friction factors, and Colburn factors are presented for different Reynolds numbers in the laminar region ($1{\leq}Re{\leq}1000$). The results show that heat transfer is enhanced when the channel corrugation ratio (${\gamma}$) is large and channel spacing ratio (${\in}$) is small in the low Reynolds number region (Re < 50) and when ${\in}$ and ${\gamma}$ are large in the high Reynolds number region ($Re{\geq}50$).

본 논문에서는 3차원 섬유분포를 가정하여 고유동 섬유보강 시멘트 모르타르의 유동에 따른 섬유방향성변화를 해석적으로 파악해 보았다. 유동흐름은 평면상의 2차원 완전발달 전단흐름을 고려하였다. 유동에 따른 섬유의 회전운동은 섬유간의 상호 간섭효과를 무시한 Jeffery의 기본식에 근거하였다. 굳지 않은 섬유혼입 모르타르의 유동에 따른 섬유방향성 분포 변화를 흐름선과 동일 유동거리 상의 단면에 대해 파악하였다. 그 결과, 단면 내 위치에 따라서 섬유방향성 분포 변화가 크게 차이가 발생하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 유동거리에 따른 단면상의 섬유방향성 분포는 초기 유동거리에서 분포 형상에 큰 변화가 발생하였고, 유동에 따라 섬유가 유동방향과 나란하게 놓이는 경향이 커지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 섬유방향성 변화의 예측은 섬유보강 시멘트 복합체의 인장특성에 예측하는데 유용하게 사용될 것이다.

싸이클론에 관한 연구는 그 내부의 복잡한 유동특성으로 인하여 실험에 의존하는 부분적인 모델이 있을 뿐, 완전한 예측모델이 정립되어 있지 않은 상태이며, 최근 들어 컴퓨터의 눈부신 발달과 함께 상용패키지를 이용한 전산유체역학(CFD)이 값싸고 효율적인 방법으로 대두되고 있으나, 이 또한 부분적으로만 성공을 거두었다(Griffiths and Boysan, 1996).(중략)

Magnetic resonance thermometry (MRT) is a technique capable of measuring three-dimensional mean temperature fields by utilizing temperature-dependent shifts in proton resonance frequency. In this study, experimental verification of the technique is obtained by measuring 3D temperature fields within fully developed turbulent pipe flow, using 3T and 7T MRI scanners. The effect of the proton resonance frequency (PRF) thermal constant is examined in detail.

우리 나라 축사는 생산효율 제고를 위하여 대형화, 밀폐화, 고밀도화, 자동화 경향이 뚜렷하다. 대형의 밀폐된 고밀도 축사는 쾌적한 실내환경을 전제로 하기 때문에 기계적으로 실내환경을 적절히 제어하지 않으면 안된다. 제한된 공간에 먼지, 병원성 미생물, 유해기체, 수분이나 열의 과도한 집적은 생산과 재생산효율에 심각한 영향을 미친다. 그러므로 축사내 생산주체인 가축과 작업인이 쾌적한 실내환경에서 생산활동을 할 수 있도록 열적, 화학적/생물학적 환경을 물리적으로 제어하지 않으면 안된다. 본 연구는 실험축사내 가축이 일정한 열을 발생할 때 실내공기의 유동형태를 예측하기 위해서 수행하였다. 이 연구의 결과를 실내환경제어를 위한 환기시스템 책략 개발의 기초자료로 활용할 수 있다. 실험축사내의 공기유동을 예측하기 위해 Body-Fitted Coordinate(BFC)의 격자배열과 k-$\varepsilon$ 난류모형 및 SIMPLE계열 solution scheme을 사용하였으며, 예측의 유효성 검정은 Boon(1978)의 실험결과를 이용하였다. 예측한 공기유동의 형태와 실험한 공기유동의 형태를 비교한 결과 대체로 만족할만한 결과를 얻었다. 그러나 유입공기의 온도가 1$0^{\circ}C$인 경우의 공기유동은 실험유동형태와 약간의 차이가 있었다. 즉, 실험에서는 수평슬롯으로 유입 된 공기가 바로 아래로 굴절되어 유동하였으나, 예측의 결과는 일정 거리로 수평방향으로 유동하다가 아래로 굴절하였다. 이런 유동의 차이는 k-$\varepsilon$ 난류모형 자체가 경험적으로 부력에 민감하게 반응않는 결함이 원인이 될 수도 있으며, 실험의 부적절한 수행이 원인이 될 수도 있다. 이 유동의 경우 Reynolds 수가 3,000정도의 난류이며, 완전발달유동 (fully-developed flow)이므로 관성력 (inertia force)이 부력 (buoyancy force)보다 커, 일정거리 수평으로 유동하다가 아래로 굴절할 수도 있기 때문이다. 앞으로 이를 규명하기 위한 보다 깊이 있는 연구가 이루어져야 할 것이다.

In the present study, kinetic energy of laminar steady flow in the exit region connected to the square-sectional $180^{\circ}$curved duct was investigated experimentally. The experimental study for air flows was conducted to measure kinetic energy distributions by using the Particle Image Velocimetry(PIV) system with the data acquisition and processing system of Cactus 2000 software. The results obtained from experimental studies are summarized as follows : (1) The critical Reynolds number for a change from laminar steady flow to transitional steadt flow was about 1910, in the 50 region of dimensionless axial position (x/Dh) whirh was considered as a fully developed flow region. (2) Maximum kinetic energy of laminar steady flow was gradually increased as the Reynolds number increased.
