A finite volume radiation solution method was applied to a non- orthogonal coordinate system for the analysis of radiative-convective heat transfer about a circular cylinder in crossflow. The crossflow Reynolds number based on the cylinder radius was 20, and the fluid Prandtl number was 0.7. The radiative heat transfer coupled with convection was reasonably predicted by the finite volume radiation solution method. The investigation includes the effects of conduction- to-radiation parameter, optical thickness, scattering albedo and cylinder wall-emissivity on heat transfer about the cylinder. As the conduction- to-radiation parameter decreases, the radiative heat transfer rate increases and conduction rate as well due to the increase in temperature gradient on the cylinder wall which is caused by radiation enhancement. With an increase in the optical thickness, the Nusselt number increases significantly and the temperature gradient shows similar behavior. Though the radiative heat transfer increases with the scattering albedo, the total heat transfer decreases. This is because the decrease in the conduction heat transfer exceeds the increase in the radiation heat transfer. As the wall- emissivity increases, the radiation absorbed in the vicinity of the cylinder wall increases and thereby the total heat transfer increases, even though the conduction heat transfer decreases.

Vibrations and wave propagations in waveguide structures can be analysed efficiently by using waveguide finite element (WFE) method. The WFE method only models the 2-dimensional cross-section of the waveguide with finite elements so that the size of the model and computing time are much less than those of the 3-dimensional FE models. For cylindrical shells or pipes which have simple cross-sections, the external coupling with fluids can be treated theoretically. For waveguides of complex cross-sectional geometries, however, numerical methods are required to deal with external fluids. In this numerical approach, the external fluid is modelled by the boundary elements (BEs) and connected to WFEs. In order to validate this WFE/BE method, a pipe submerged in water is considered in this study. The dispersion diagrams and point mobilities of the pipe simulated are compared to those that theoretically obtained. Also the acoustic powers radiated from the pipe are predicted and compared in both cases of air and water as an external medium.

This work is aimed to develop a new type of the Push-Pull ultrasonic transducer that can provide higher sound pressure level and simpler internal structure than conventional types. The driving part of the newly designed transducer is positioned in the middle of the cylinder, and its optimum geometry is determined by using the FEM package, ANSYS. Through FEM model analysis, the effects of all of its geometrical variables such as transducer length, transducer radius, and the edge shape of the end cap have been examined, and the results have led to the optimum geometry. The newly designed transducer has been found to give better performance than that of traditional ones.

Finite element numerical analysis was conducted with using the knot data which has a strong influence on the prediction of capacity for the structural wood member. Wood is a orthotropic property unlike other structural materials, so orthotropic property was applied. Knot was modelled as a cylinder shape, cone shape, and cubic shape. Compressive test was carried out to investigate the failure types and to calculate ultimate strengths for the wood members. Numerical model which can reflect the member size, number of knot, location of knot, size of knot was created and analyzed. By the numerical analysis using the ultimate compressive strength, numerical stress distribution types of each specimen was compared to real failure types for the test specimen. Cylinder shape modelling might be most reasonable, according to the necessary time for the analysis, the difficulty of element meshing, and the similarity of stress transfer around knot. Moreover, according to the stress and deformation distribution for the numerical analysis, failures or cracks of real specimen were developed in the vicinity of stress concentrated section and most transformed section. Based on the those results, numerical analysis could be utilized as a useful method to analyze the performance of bending member and tensile member, if only orthotropic property and knot modelling were properly applied.

A buoyant jet flow impinging on a circular cylinder is investigated including heat conduction through the cylinder. Temperature and flow fields are obtained by an iterative method, and the effects of the non-uniform wall temperature on the flow and heat transfer are analyzed. Effects of three-dimensionality and the traversing of the jet are also included. Nusselt number over the cylinder surface for the conjugate case is relatively small as compared with the constant wall temperature case due to the small temperature gradient. As the conductivity of the cylinder becomes lower, Nusselt number decreases due to the reduced temperature gradient. Increasing jet traversing speed causes the surface temperature of the cylinder to decrease, which increases local Nusselt number over the surface.

Numerical calculations has been performed for the flow and heat transfer to a circular cylinder from a hot circular impinging air jet. The characteristics of the flow and heat transfer are investigated and compared with the two-dimensional flow. The present study lays emphasis on the investigation on the flow and heat transfer of the three-dimensionality. The effects of the buoyancy force and the size of jet are also studied. The noticeable difference between the three and the two-dimensional cases is that there is axial flow of low temperature into the center-plane of the cylinder from the outside in the recirculation region. Local Nusselt number over the cylinder surface has higher value for the large jet as compared with that of the small jet since the energy loss of hot jet to the ambient air decreases with increase of the jet size. As buoyancy force increases the flow accelerates so that the period of cooling by the ambient air is reduced, which results in higher local Nusselt number over the surface.

This study presents the stress safety analysis of a cylinder, which is manufactured by a tempered ASTM D2, tempered SM45C and normalized SM45C materials, respectively. The inner diameter of three cylinder models are 85mm, 95mm, and 11 Omm and the total length of a cylinder is 2,365mm for a high pressure injection molding machine. The FEM computed results show that the inner diameter of 85mm with a thick thickness of 62.5mm may produce the injection pressure of 325MPa and the inner diameter of 110mm with 50mm thickness reduces up to the injection pressure of 220MPa because of a reduced thickness of a cylinder. These injection pressures are enough for a high pressure injection molding machine assembled by ASTM D2 cylinder. And also, an injection cylinder manufactured by a tempered SM45C material in which is low priee may produce 225MPa injection molding pressure and this may sufficiently endure stress safety compared to that of ASTM D2 cylinder material. Thus, this study recommends that tempered SM45C cylinder is appropriated for a mild injection molding machine as an alternative cylinder material when the safety strength and low prices are considered. But the normalized SM45C cylinder material does not meet a stress safety of yield strength in general.

Unlike structures in the air, the vibration analysis of a submerged or floating structure such as offshore structures is possibly only when the fluid-structures is understood, as the whole or part of the structure is in contact with water. Through the comparision between the experimental result and the finite element analysis result for a simple cylindrical model, it was verified that an added mass effects on the cylindrical structure. Using the commercial FEA program ANSYS(v.11.0), underwater added mass was superposed on the mass matrix of the structure. A frequency response analysis of forced vibration in the frequency considered the dynamic load was also performed. It was proposed to find the several important modes of resonance peak for these fixed cylindrical type structures. Furthermore, it is expected that the analysis method and the data in this study can be applied to a dynamic structural design and dynamic performance evaluation for the ground and marine purpose of power generator by wind.

전세계적인 에너지 절약과 환경보존에 대한 관심과 요구가 증가함에 따라 소비전력규제와 CFC삭감에 대응한 국제경쟁력 확보가 중요한 과제로 대두 되고 있다. 이러한 상황변화에 따라 냉동 공조기기의 심장부인 압축기에 대 해서도 고효율 및 저소음화의 요구가 한층 높아졌다. 따라서 가혹한 환경에 도 견딜 수 있는 압축기의 개발은 필수적이라 할 수 있다. 소형밀폐형 압축 기는 크게 두 부분으로 나뉘어진다. 그 하나는 모터에 의한 회전구동부이고, 다른 하나는 실린더와 피스톤 그리고 밸브로 구성된 압축기구부이다. 그 중 에서 밸브는 진동 및 소음에 영향을 미치는 기본요소가 된다. 압축기의 밸브 는 근본적으로 밸브포트와 실린더 형상에 의해 결정되며, 이런 형상조건하에 서 밸브는 연속적인 운전이 되어야 하므로, 그 응답성이 좋아야 하고 무엇보 다도 자체의 신뢰성도 확보되어야 한다. 따라서 밸브의 동적특성과 응력 분 포를 정확히 예측하는 것이 중요한 과제가 된다. 본 논문에서는 컴퓨터를 이 용한 밸브의 동적특성과 응력해석을 위해 밸브의 형상을 유한요소 패키지인 ANSYS를 이용하여 해석하고, 그 모델링 및 해석이 타당성을 검토하기 위하 여 동적 특성해석은 홀로그래피(Holography) 기술을 이용하여 실험하고, 응 력해석은 스트레인 게이지(strain gage)를 이용하여 결과를 얻어서 서로 비 교하여 보았다.

In general, FDM(finite difference method) and FVM(finite volume method) are used for analyzing the fluid flow numerically. However it is difficult to apply them to problems involving complex geometries, multi-connected domains, and complex boundary conditions. On the contrary, FEM(finite element method) with coordinates transformation for the unstructured grid is effective for the complex geometries. Most of previous studies have used commercial codes such as KIVA or STAR-CD for the flow analyses in the engine cylinder, and these codes are mostly based on the FVM. In the present study, using the FEM for three-dimensional, unsteady, and incompressible Navier-Stokes equation, the velocity and pressure fields in the engine cylinder have been numerically analyzed. As a numerical algorithm, 4-step time-splitting method is used and ALE(arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian) method is adopted for moving grids. In the Piston-Cylinder, the calculated results show good agreement in comparison with those by the FVM and the experimental results by the LDA.
