This study was conducted to qualify the equality of the flow distribution from open channel between rapid mixing basin and flocculation basins in a domestic S_ water treatment plant, and to suggest a remedy for improving the equality. In order to evaluate the feasibility of the suggested remedy, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique are used, and for verifying the CFD simulation results tracer tests were carried out. From the results of CFD simulation and tracer tests, it was investigated that the modification of hydraulic structure in the distribution channel, which is to install the longitudinal orifice baffle in flow direction, could improve the equality of the flow distribution over 75%.

Flow quantity to supply to a coil in floor heating system is important to achieve comfortable indoor air condition in the winter season. The hot water header is used to distribute the water into the coil. Experimental study has been performed using the water header that have 5 branches consisted of flow control valves and automatic shut-off valves. Each branch line connected it with X-L pipe. Experimental tests accomplished it to investigate the flow distribution characteristics of the hot water header. Experimental results show that the selection of the pump head and differential pressure are very important to save running energy of the system, and high differential pressure needs more friction loss in the case of suitable differential pressure for balancing of the header.

본 연구는 성능 해석을 통하여 1600cc급 흡기매니폴드의 흡기유량 및 분배특성에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 일차원 엔진 성능해석 프로그램과 3차원 유동해석프로그램을 이용하여 해석을 수행하였다. 흡기 매니폴드의 정상상태 유동해석을 수행한 결과, 일차원 유동해석과 3차원 유동해석의 유량계수 표준편차는 1% 미만으로 우수한 분배특성을 나타내었다. 일차원 해석 결과가 3차원 결과 대비 미소하게 증가된 결과를 보였지만 동등한 유량계수 경향성을 나타냈다. 비정상상태 해석은 분배특성 측면에서 정상상태 해석 결과와 유사한 결과를 보였으며, 정상상태 해석결과를 통한 비정상상태 분배특성의 예측이 가능함을 확인하였다.

In order to suggest the methodology for improving the equity of flow distribution in open channel with multiple outlet, CFD simulations were carried out for actual scale distribution channel being operated in domestic G_WTP(Water Treatment Plant). Also, before and after installing the longitudinal multi hole(diameter=250 mm, 116 holes) baffle suggested by this research, turbidity measurements data were collected for evaluating the effects of hydraulic modification for inlet flow equity. From the both results, total turbidity of settled water was lowered by 30 % and equity of flow distribution was improved about 60 % compared with before hydraulic structure modification.

A general flow distribution model and a simple process of numerical analysis, which can be applied to multi-pass systems with manifolds, are presented. A numerical procedure, namely a modified equal pressure method based on the discrete model, was developed to predict flow rates at branch tubes. The predicted pressure distribution agreed well with the previous research with the average error less than 11%. A parametric study was performed to demonstrate the effect on the flow distribution.

In the present study, various experiments were performed to investigate capacity modulation and refrigerant flow distribution of a multi-heat pump using a variable speed compressor and electronic expansion valves(EEVs) in the cooling mode. Based on the experimental results, it was possible to understand the interrelation of dual indoor units which provides some difficulties in capacity control of each indoor unit. The characteristics of capacity modulation of two indoor units were measured by controlling two EEVs with a cooling load of each indoor unit.

A general flow distribution model and a simple process of numerical analysis, which can be applied to multi-pass systems with manifolds, are presented. Correlations are derived from the discrete model, and numerically calculated using a modified equal pressure method. The predicted pressure distribution agrees well with the available experimental results of other researchers with the average error less than 2% for 10 branch manifolds, and 4% for 20 branch manifolds. A parametric study is performed to demonstrate the effect on the flow distribution.

The present study has been studied on a thermal and flow characteristic of the microchannel waterblock with flow distributions in each channels. Results of a numerical analysis using the CFX-11 are compared with results of an experiment. Numerical analysis and experiment are conducted under a heat transfer rate of 150W, inlet temperature of $20^{\circ}C$ and mass flow rates of $0.7{\sim}2.0\;kg$/min. Base temperature and pressure drop are investigated with standard deviations of mass flow rates in each channels of samples at 0.7 kg/min.

The flow distribution characteristics in a complex duct system have been investigated in this paper by three means, namely experimental measurement, numerical simulation and the Extended T-method analysis. While the exit flow rates predicted by the three-dimensional CFD calculation and those given by the experiment show a close agreement, the results from the one-dimensional Extended T-method are found to differ from the experiment by -22.2% to 26.3% for the various exits. These discrepancies may be attributed to the underlying limitation concerning the fitting loss coefficients, which assume that the flow in front of the fittings is fully developed. It is proposed that, in order to analyse the three-dimensional flow distributions in a complex duct system by one-dimensional analysis such as the Extended T-method, further Improvements to the fitting loss coefficients should be made.
