양산되는 승용차용 토크 컨버터 내부의 유동을 LDV 측정 기술을 이용하여 정량화했다. 속도비 0.4와 0.8 경우에 대한 속도 측정을 통해 임펠러 유로 중간과 출구 영역의 질량 유동율 특성을 분석했다. 측정 단면의 속도 분포는 유로의 위치와 속도비에 따라 많은 차이를 보이며, 특히 속도비 0.8 조건에서 임펠러 유로 중간영역 흡입면 부근의 유동은 유동박리에 의한 재순환 현상을 나타내며, 이와는 대조적으로 출구 영역에서는 흡입면을 따라 역류 현상이 발생한다. 임펠러 유로 내부의 유동은 각 영역에서 속도비에 따라 개별적 유동 특성을 보인다. 질량 유동율은 모든 속도비와 측정단면에서 주기적인 변화를 보이며, 또한 터빈의 순간적인 위치가 임펠러 유로 측정단면의 질랑 유동율에 매우 큰 영향을 미치는 것이 밝혀졌다 따라서 토크 컨버터 임펠러의 유로 방향 유동 특성 변화는 컨버터 설계에 중요하게 고려되어야 할 것으로 보인다.

The purpose of this study is to examine morphometric characteristics in a channel bend reach. The new shape factor is suggested that channel deformation rate of cross section (${\Delta}A_s$) showed the variation of concentrated location of force due to the current and the variation of erosional section in alluvial channel. In the downstream direction the meaning of decreasing "${\Delta}A_s$" is the stability of channel bed. This study was analyzed morphological characteristics of cross section-width of channel ($W_s$), width to the thalweg ($W_{th}$), maximum depth ($D_{th}$)-on the Guem River, and typical cross sections in channel bend were proposed. The channel migration rate (M) for the study river was represented that the zones of curvature ratio (R/W) with 2~4 were larger 12% than other zones.

To identify the effects of an outflow area on pool boiling heat transfer in a vertical annulus, three different flow restrictors were studied experimentally. For the test, a heated tube of smooth stainless steel and water at atmospheric pressure were used. Both annuli with open and closed bottoms were considered. To validate the effects of the outflow area on the heat transfer, the results of the annulus with the restrictor were compared with the data for the plain annulus without the restrictor. The reduction of the outflow area ultimately results in a decrease in the heat transfer. As the outflow area is very small, a slight increase in heat transfer is also observed. The major cause of this tendency is explained as the difference in the intensity of liquid agitation cause by the movement of coalesced bubbles. It is identified that the convective flow, pulsating flow, and evaporative mechanism are considered as the important mechanisms.

A computational analysis has been made on fluid flow in a regenerative cooling Passage for a reduced size liquid rocket engine to predict pressure drop and heat transfer rate in it. The contraction/expansion of the cross sectional area of the passage turn out to increases both the pressure loss and the heat transfer rate of the duct. The changes of the cross sectional area near the nozzle throat are effective to protect the throat which suffers from severe thermal load. Also given is the qualitative characteristics of the performance of the regenerative cooling system due to the variation of coolant flow rate.

This study describes the aerodynamic design procedure for the axial turbines of a small heavy-duty gas turbine engine being developed by Doosan Heavy Industries. The design procedure mainly consists of three parts: namely, flowpath design, airfoil design, and 3D performance calculation. To design the optimized flowpath, through-flow calculations as well as the loss estimation are widely used to evaluate the effect of geometric variables, for example, shape of meridional plane, mean radius, blades axial gap, and hade angle. During the airfoil design procedure, the optimum number of blades is calculated by empirical correlations based on the in/outlet flow angles, and then 2D airfoil planar sections are designed carefully, followed by 2D B2B NS calculations. The designed planar sections are stacked along the spanwise direction, leading to a 3D surfaced airfoil shape. To consider the 3D effect on turbine performance, 3D multistage Euler calculation, single row, and multistage NS calculations are performed.

A methodology has been proposed to understand the spatiotemporal changes of the river topography through the longitudinal change of the geometric characteristics of the cross-sections and the properties related thereto. Three-dimensional spatial information of the riverbed was obtained through the detailed bathymetry survey using an acoustic echo sounder for the reach from Gumi Weir to Chilgok Weir in the Nakdong river. Geometric informations for the reference sections were extracted using the acquired bathymetry survey data. By comparing the geometric properties for the reference sections, it was possible to catch the topographic characteristics and its changes over a reach of the channel. Through comparison with past survey data, it was also possible to quantitatively grasp the amount of change in cross-sectional area and volumetric change of riverbed. It is expected that a quantitative evaluation of river topography changes will be possible by applying the method proposed in this study.

하천수를 취수원으로 하는 우리나라의 많은 취수장의 경우, 유사유입 및 유로 변경에 따른 취수장애를 겪고 있으나 유로의 변화특성을 분석하고 취수장 위치선정에 활용한 수 있는 실무적 기법에 대한 연구는 거의 없는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 유로가 좌${\cdot}$우안으로 수시로 바뀌어 갈수기는 물론 평수기에도 취수장애를 겪고 있어 대책 강구가 요구되는 국내 취수장을 선정하고 취수지점의 계속적인 하상 및 유로변동 현상을 규명하여 안정적인 취수를 가능케 하는 근본적인 대책을 수립하기 위한 유로변화 특성 분석기법을 제시하였다. 연구내용으로는 과거 30여년에 걸친 하도의 평면학적 변화양상을 인공위성영상자료, 지형도자료 및 하도단면 실측자료를 활용하여 각 지점별 유로변화에 대한 동계분석을 실시하였다. 또한 하도의 전단응력, 마찰 속도 등을 산정하여 하상형태를 분석하여 대상구간의 흐름특성을 분석하였다. 분석결과 하도의 사행은 지속적으로 진행되고 있음을 알 수 있으며 특히 취수장부터 상류 수km구간 하도에서는 밤섬이 지속적으로 생긴다 사라지는 현상이 반복되고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 취수장 주변에서는 유로의 변동이 하폭의 $70\%$에 달하는 심한 유로변화 특성을 나타내고 있어 취수지점으로 적당치 못함을 알수 있었으며 주변 상하류 십수 km구간 중에는 유로의 변화가 거의 없는 구간도 존재함을 알 수 있이 본 연구의 유로변화 분석기법이 향후 유로변화 분석 및 취수장 건설 위치 선정에 효과적인 분석기법으로 활용 가능함을 입증하였다.

A flow channel model of a bipolar plate with varying cross-sectional area was newly designed for improving performance and efficiency of a PEM fuel cell stack. As a result, the varying cross-sectional area model showed poor uniformity in velocity distribution, however, maximum velocity in the flow path is about 30% faster than that of the uniform cross-sectional area model. The proposed varying cross-sectional area model is expected to diffuse operating fluids more easily into diffusion layer because it has relatively higher values in pressure distribution compared with other flow channel models. It is expected that the implementation of the varying cross-sectional area model can reduce not only the mass transport loss but also the activation loss in a PEM fuel cell, and open circuit voltage of a fuel cell can thus be increased slightly.

A swirler with turbulence generator is designed and manufactured for generating many small-scale eddies in the combustor which contribute to enhancing mixing effect between fuel and air. The method results in not only the disadvantage of pressure loss but also the advantage of promoting combustion and reducing NOx. For the purpose of the study, four kinds of swirler with different turbulence generator area (0%, 3%, 7%, and 12% of reducing flow area) are designed to confirm the effect of mixing according the variation in the area of the turbulence generator. The mixing of combustor in the radial direction is significantly improved and the distributions of flames and temperature are well distributed throughout the cross section of a combustor as area of swirl generator is increased.

비등이 발생하는 경사유로에서 이상유동 구조 파악을 위해 국부적 이상유동 변수의 측정이 이루어졌다. 국부 기포율, 국부 기포빈도, 국부기포속도 그리고 국부 기포크기와 같은 기상 관련 이상유동변수는 이중 전기전도도 탐침으로, 액상속도 분포는 Pilot tuba로 측정하였다. 유로의 경사도가 이상유동 구조에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위해 실험은 수직, 수직으로부터 30도 경사도 및 60도 경사도에서 유량과 열유속을 변화시켜가며 수행하였으며 유동변수의 측정은 경사진 경우에 측면 방향으로의 대칭성을 고려하여 유로 반 단면내 총 91개 지점에서, 수직인 경우에는 13개 지점에서 이루어졌다. 유동조건은 1.4m/s 이하의 평균 액상 겉보기 속도에 제한되었고 유로내 압력은 대기압이며 유동양식은 미포화 비등에 국한되었다. 측정된 이상유동 변수의 분포를 이용하여 경사유로에 적용할 수 있는 distribution parameter와 drift velocity 같은 dirft flux parameter에 대한 상관식이 개발되었다.
