This study examines the flows near the different side mirrors by analyzing the flow due to air resistance at A, B and C models of automotive side mirrors. Model A is a square-shaped side-mirror. Model B is a triangular side-mirror and model C is an oval-shaped side-mirror. The air resistance of the side-mirror while driving is reduced and the automotive power can be reduced by changing the design of automotive side-mirror. As analysis result, as the pressure of air resistance against side mirror becomes larger, it can be seen that the air flow rate becomes great. Therefore, it can be estimated that the smaller the pressure of air resistance, the smaller the flow rate and the better the air flow. Therefore, it can be acknowledged that model B is the best model. As the design data of the automotive side mirror obtained on the basis of this study result are utilized, the esthetic sense can be shown while driving a car at real life.

에어로졸의 측정은 다양한 변수에 영향을 받는다. 입자가 공기 중에 떠 있으므로 입자 주위의 유체온도와 압력에 영향을 받을 뿐 아니라 측정 대상인 입자의 크기, 농도, 하전 상태에 따라서 제약을 받는다. 특히, 에어로졸의 발생이나 측정은 복잡한 메커니즘으로 이루어지기 때문에 장비의 성능을 평가하거나 교정하는 과정은 쉽지 않고, 적당한 지침이나 문헌 또한 부족한 실정이다. 고농도, 고하전인 극한 조건에서 나노 에어로졸 입자를 측정하는 경우에는 측정 장비가 신뢰성 있는 결과를 제공할 수 있도록, 측정 대상인 나노 입자의 하전량, 형상, 크기 분포를 미리 예측하여 SMPS의 운전조건을 적절하게 결정할 수 있도록 미리 확인해야 한다

In this paper, incompressible and compressible flow characteristics around the butterfly valve have been investigated. In order to simplify the problem, a flat disk valve with various valve disk angles and pressure ratios is considered in the present calculations. It was found that as the disk angle increases, the stagnation point on the front surface of the disk moves to the center of the surface and the inflow velocity decreases. The maximum flow velocity occurs at the downstream of throat because of the formation of vents contracta. As the pressure ratio decreases, compressibility effects increase and the jet formed between the throttle body wall and the disk edge becomes supersonic. This flow also builds up as a shock cell structure. The increase of disk angle and pressure ratio makes the mass flow at the inlet decrease, while the increase of disk angle and the decrease of pressure ratio make the pressure loss coefficient increase.

In this study, the effect of an unsteady flow field around a body of aerostatic/aerodynamic forces were investigated using rectangular cylinders (B/D = 2, 3, 4, 5). Proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) was introduced to the analysis of the fluctuating pressure field that was measured on the stationary/oscillatory B/D=4 rectangular cylinder, and the characteristics of the proper functions with flow patterns were identified. In addition, the physical decoupling and interactions in the different co-existing flow patterns were investigated through POD. The comparison with the identified proper function associated with a particular flow pattern revealed that the Karman vortex is almost not affected by the separation bubble, but that the Karman vortex considerably interferes in the development of the separation bubble around the trailing edge. It can be considered that the Karman vortex induces the increment of the curvature of the substantial separated flow.

The flow analyses around the wing of airplane installed with winglet or sharkelt were carried out in this study. At the model without winglet, it can be seen that the air flows beside the wing and the flow is concentrated at the end of wing. At the model of winglet or sharklet, the pressure on the bottom of the wing happens to be lower in the wide area than for model without winglet. At the analysis result, the air flowing next to the wing can be seen to go over and rotates over the main wing. The model with the sharklet shows that the flow rate is the fastest. In case of model with sharklet, it is thought that the maximum total pressure of flow is distributed at the bottom of the wing, which can further improve the lift force of the wing. It is thought that the analysis results in this study on the air flow due to the configuration of aircraft edge wing can be helped at its convergent research.

To investigate the aerodynamic characteristics of the on a road vehicle, experimenrs were performed at an Atmospheric Boundary Layer Wind Tunnel. The scaled model of an automobile with 1 : 3 scaling ratio was used. The Reynolds number based on the free stream velocity and model length was $7.93{\times}10^5$. The influence of crosswind to the stability of automobile was investigated by the pressure distribution measurements and flow visualization studies. with the variation of the angle of attack, the change in pressure coefficient depends highly on the flow separation regimes. The experimental and numerical results are compared and found to be in good agreements.

Because heat exchanger consists of many circular tubes, the analysis of local heat transfer and pressure drop at the surrounding of circular tubes, performance and calculation of size, economics play important roles in design. In this study, This study conducted experiment and analysis in order to observe convective heat transfer coefficient LMTD (logarithm mean temperature difference) and pressure losses according to water temperature and air flow rate using a cross flow heat exchanger of staggered arrangement. This heat exchanger was composed of staggered arrangement for five rows and seven columns of tube banks, and the condition of experiment and analysis are $40{\sim}65^{\circ}C$ of water temperature and $5.0{\sim}12.3m^3/s$ of air flow rate. As a result of it, since air density decreases as water temperature and flow rate increases, Reynolds number decreases with characteristics of low flow velocity but mean heat transfer coefficient increases with air flow rate increase, heat transfer performance has been improved and pressure losses decreased. And since heat transfer rate shows about 8~12% and pressure drop around 0.01~7.5% error as the analysis result, the feasibility of this study could be evaluated.

In this study, the flow analysis around vehicle was carried out on various kinds of roof box models installed at the roof of vehicle. Through the analysis of fluid flow and pressure, we investigated which model was more suitable for driving. The four types of models were designed with their respective shapes of models 1, ${\beta}$, ${\delta}$ and ${\gamma}$, and the driving speed of car was set as 20 m/s. It was confirmed that the pressure for model ${\beta}$ became greatest compared to other models. And model ${\delta}$ has the lowest pressure among all models of roof boxes by installing a canoe with the structure for cable type. As the design data with the durability of roof box obtained on the basis of this study result are utilized, the esthetic sense can be shown by being grafted onto the car body at real life.

A study has been done on the three dimensional turbulent flow characteristic near the porous wall. The porous holes are considered by penetrating the wall in regular arrangement, and porosity is controlled by diameter of holes. Flow characteristics near the three dimensional porous wall are compared with field test results and self-generated experimental results. FLUENT is employed for computational analysis on the effect of three dimensional porosity with flow and pressure characteristics. As a result, drag coefficient is defined and compared for three dimensional effect. The drag coefficient is mostly a function of porosity, whereas the effect of Reynolds number is minimal, and its correlation is presented in terms of three dimensional porosity.

The atomization of a liquid into multiple droplets has many important industrial applications, including the atomization of fuels in combustion processes and coating of surfaces and particles. Ultrasonic atomizing nozzle has a transducer that receives electrical input in the form of a high frequency signal from a power generator and converts that into mechanical energy at the same frequency. Liquid is atomized into a fine mist spray using high frequency sound vibrations. In coating applications, the unpressurized, low-velocity spray reduces the amount of overspray significantly because the droplets tend to settle on the substrate, rather than bouncing off it. The spray can be controlled and shaped precisely by entraining the slow-moving spray in an ancillary air stream using specialized types of spray-shaping equipment. The desired patterns of spray can be obtained using an air stream. To simulate the water mist behavior of an ultrasonic atomizing nozzle using an air stream, the Lagrangian dispersed phase model was employed using the commercial code FLUENT. The effects of the nozzle contraction shape, water droplet size and the pneumatic pressure drop on the spray characteristics were investigated to obtain the optimal condition for coating applications.
