Minimizing the cylinder wear and the consumption rate of cylinder oil in a large two-stroke diesel engine is of great economic importance. A motor-driven cylinder lubricator for Sulzer RT-flex large two-stroke diesel engines developed by authors is in need of mounting a quill system to lubricate cylinder parts for a smooth operation. In order to apply the common-rail lubricating system to the developed cylinder lubricator as the second research stage, the mechanical quill system with a progressively quantitative distributor (M.D.S.) is improved in the electronically controlled quill system with an accumulating distributor (E.D.S.). In this study, the effects of lubricator motor speed, plunger stroke and cylinder back pressure on oil feed rate and inequality rate are experimentally investigated by applying E.D.S. to the developed cylinder lubricator. It is found that the oil feed rate of E.D.S. is higher than that of M.D.S. because of the increase of delivery speed and volume by changing the role of accumulator in the same experimental condition. It can be also shown that, in E.D.S., the inequality rate is decreased a little or hardly unchanged as the cylinder back pressure and plunger stroke is elevated, while the inequality rate increased in M.D.S.. The inequality rates of E.D.S. and M.D.S. are lowered as the lubricator motor speed is increased.

Internal combustion engines running on syngas, which can be obtained from biomass or organic wastes, are expected to be one of the suitable alternatives for power generation, because they are environment-friendly and do not contribute to the depletion of fossil fuels. However, syngas has variable compositions and a lower heating value than pure natural gas, owing to which the combustion conditions need to be adjusted in order to achieve stable combustion. In this study, a gas that has the same characteristics as syngas, such as low heating value (LHV), was produced by mixing $N_2$ with compressed natural gas (CNG). In addition, this study investigates the combustion characteristics of syngas when it is mixed with hydrogen in a ratio ranging from 10% to 30% with a constant LHV of total gas.

The present paper deals with numerical analysis to investigate the effect of rounded tube on the pressure drop and heat transfer in a compact tubular heat exchanger designed for high temperature and high pressure system. The pressure drop and heat transfer in the tubular heat exchanger greatly depend on the location of rounded tubes. The effect of locations of the rounded tubes was also analyzed. Three different locations which were tube inlet, tube outlet, and inlet&outlet were considered. In this paper, the tube with a rounded inlet&outlet showed the minimum pressure drop with decreased heat transfer while the tube with a rounded outlet showed better characteristics of pressure drop and heat transfer compared with the results of original model.

Precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) was prepared in a cylindrical reactor by the nozzle spouting method. The reactor was filled with $CO_2$ and $Ca(OH)_2$ suspensions were circulated through a nozzle to prepare PCC. This method has several advantages such as provision of large contact area between suspension and $CO_2$ and production of large number of nuclei in short time. By changing suspension concentrations, suspension temperature, flow rates of $CO_2$ and nozzle sizes, PCC from homogeneously dispersed $0.1{\mu}m$ to heterogeneous $0.3{\mu}m$ can be obtained. According to XRD analyses, most PCC formed was calcite with small amount of aragonite depending on the reaction conditions. Usually, the reaction proceeded at high pH and electric conductivities initially. Then, pH and electric conductivities decreased rapidly to the saturation condition. Results indicated that the specific conditions (temperature: $25^{\circ}C$, suspension concentration: 0.5 wt%, $CO_2$ flow rate: 1 L/min, nozzle size: 0.4 mm) were required to prepare uniform particle size (particle diameter: $0.1{\mu}m$) of PCC.

In this paper, simulations were carried out to determine the efficiency of the rotation efficiency according to the draft of waterwheel in open rectangular channel. In the small hydroelectric generators to get the highest efficiency of waterwheel is very important. But the presence of various elements(free water surface flow, non-uniform velocity distribution because of the waterways wall friction etc) makes it difficult to create a mathematical formula. In this paper, we made a scale model and perform a physical simulation where the draft, gradient and flux is variable. Scale modelling with 10-step draft, 3-step gradients and 2-step flux, as well were constructed then computerized automatic experimental system were configured to acquire the rotational efficiency vs. draft of itself. Rotational efficiency is analyzed as for the draft of waterwheel using the acquired data by varying the gradient and flux of canal. Reviewing the analyzed data, it is confirmed that phenomena of efficiency shown at previous and present experiment is similar and revealed that computerized system shows more sophisticated numerical figures.

An intake of Aircraft becomes S-shaped geometry due to spatial limitation or procuring survivability. But curvature of the S-shaped geometry makes secondary flow or flow separation which is the cause of non-uniform pressure distribution. In this study, boundary layer suction is applied to RAE M 2129 S-Duct by attaching sub duct. Design variable is suction location and angle. A mass flow rate drawn out by suction at the sub duct outlet is constant over every model. A grid dependency test was conducted to verify validity of computation. The comparison among the CFD (Computation Fluid Dynamics), ARA experimental result, and ARA computation result of non-dimensional pressure distribution on the Port side and Starboard Side confirmed the validity of CFD. In this study, Distortion Coefficient was used for evaluating aerodynamic performance of S-Duct. The analysis, which was about flow separation, vortex, mass flow rate distribution, and pressure distribution were also investigated. Maximum 26.14% reduction in Distortion Coefficient was verified.

The flow in the LOX manifold of liquid rocket (KSR-III) has been analyzed using a CAE technique with an objective of modeling injector orifices in order to reduce the computational cost for the flow analysis without much losing the accuracy of capturing the flow physics. The numerical result shows that the flow just above the injector orifices is not uniformly distributed in terms of pressure and mass flow rate in case pre-distributors are not equipped inside the manifold. This non-uniformity of mass flux is attributed to the presence of large-scale flow patterns. Several boundary conditions which were designed to effectively replace the presence of injector orifices have been tested and it was found that a simple modeling can be possible by mimicking the actual shape of the orifices.

교차하는 전기장과 자기장으로 플라즈마를 방전하고, 이온 빔을 효과적으로 가속하는 원형 이온 빔 소스를 개발하였다. 방위각 방향으로 비대칭적인 중성 가스와 전자 빔의 공급으로 이온 빔 소스에서 불안정하고 불균일한 플라즈마가 방전되어, 이온 소스의 효율을 저하시킨다. 본 연구에서는 플라즈마 이미지를 이용하여 이온 소스 내부에서의 중성입자 밀도 분포를 측정하는 방법을 개발하였다. 자기장의 방향이 서로 다른 방전조건에서 얻어지는 한 쌍의 플라즈마 이미지로부터 티코노프 정형화 기법을 이용하여 방위각에 대한 중성입자의 밀도 분포를 재구성한다. 본 재구성 기법을 이용하여 얻어진 밀도 분포는 유체흐름 등가회로 모델을 바탕으로 한 수치해석을 이용하여 분석하였다. 중성입자 밀도의 공간분포는 인가 전압, 자기장의 세기 및 유량과 같은 방전조건의 변화에 크게 영향을 받지 않고, 가스 공급부의 내부 구조에 의해 결정되는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 등가회로 모델을 이용하여 균일한 공간분포를 얻기 위한 공급부 설계를 수행하였다.

The inflow estimation at large multipurpose dam reservoir is carried out by considering the water balance among the discharge, the storage change during unit time interval obtained from the observed water level near dam structure and area-volume curve. This method can be ideal for level pool reservoir but include potential errors when the inflow is influenced by the water level slope due to backwater effects from upstream flood inflows and strong wind induced by typhoon. In addition, the other uncertainties arisen from the storage reduction due to sedimentation after the dam construction and water level noise due to mechanical vibration transmitted from the electric power generator. These uncertainties impedes the accurate hydraulic inflow measurement requiring exquisite hydrometric data arrangement for reservoir waterbody. In this study, the distributed hydrologic model using UBC-3P boundary setting was applied and its feasibility was evaluated. Finally, the modeling performance has been verified since the calculated determination coefficient has been in between 0.96 to 0.99 after comparing with observed peak inflow and total inflow at Namgang dam reservoir.
