Linear Shaped Charge (LSC) that is widely used as separation system in aerospace system has to charge lots of explosives due to lack of uniformity. In addition, it is hard to optimize shape of liner and explosives because of manufacturing process. In order to overcome aforementioned drawbacks, Precision Linear Shaped Charge (PLSC) is currently under development. PLSC is made in two steps: prepare liner independently and charge explosive uniformly. In this study, PLSC is designed to have proper amount of explosives and penetration test of PLSC with different stand-off distance from liner to target is conducted to confirm penetration performance. Based on the penetration test results of PLSC, the numerical analysis method using AUTODYN is established and verified. Penetration mechanism and characteristics of PLSC is analyzed from the numerical and experimental results.

This study aimed to improve the performance of the KTX (Korea Train Express) brake system. To develop a braking disc-hub for the high-speed rail, the model performance was analyzed by finite element analysis, and the analysis results were verified using the braking test results. In addition, heat transfer analysis, thermal stress analysis, natural frequency analysis, and static analysis were conducted to examine the mechanical performance of the braking system. By deriving the design factors and conducting parametric analyses according to the shape of the hub, this study derived the optimal specifications that could improve heat dissipation and reduce weight. The cooling efficiency and structural performance of the optimization model were improved during braking compared to the existing model. It is expected that the design verification will be carried out through analyses of the optimal specifications so that it can be used in the development of brakes in railway vehicles and motor vehicles.

In this paper, a machine learning and deep learning model for the design of circuit analog (CA) radar absorbing structure with a cross-dipole pattern on a glass fiber fabric reinforced plastic is presented. The proposed model can directly calculate reflection loss in the Ku-band (12-18 GHz) without three-dimensional electromagnetic numerical analysis based on the geometry of the Cross-Dipole pattern. For this purpose, the optimal learning model was derived by applying various machine learning and deep learning techniques, and the results calculated by the learning model were compared with the electromagnetic wave absorption characteristics obtained by 3D electromagnetic wave numerical analysis to evaluate the comparative advantages of each model. Most of the implemented models showed similar calculated results to the numerical results, but it was found that the Fully-Connected model could provide the most similar calculated results.

This study reports a numerical analysis of the internal flow characteristics of the integrated urea-SCR muffler system with the various geometries of the multi-perforated tube which is set up between the muffler inlet and in front of SCR catalysts. The multi-perforated tube is generally used to disperse uniformly the urea-water solution spray and to make better use of the SCR catalyst, resulting in the increased $NO_x$ reduction and decreased ammonia slip. The effects of the multi-perforated tube orifice area ratios on the velocity distributions in front of the SCR catalyst, which is ultimately quantified as the uniformity index, were investigated for the optimal muffler system design. The steady flow model was applied by using a general-purpose commercial software package. The air at the room temperature was used as a working fluid, instead of the exhaust gas and urea-water solution spray mixture. From the analysis results, it was clarified that the multi-perforated tube geometry sensitively affected to the formation of the bulk swirling motion inside the plenum chamber set in front of the SCR catalyst and to the uniformity index of the velocity distribution produced at the inlet of the catalyst.

Significant efforts have been devoted to developing high-performance composite materials by emulating the structure of biological creatures with superior mechanical characteristics. Nacre has been one of the most sought-after natural structures due to its exceptional fracture toughness compared with the constituent materials. However, the effect of manipulating the nacre-like geometry on the impact performance has not been fully investigated thus far. In this study, composites of randomly manipulated nacreous geometry are numerically developed and the impact performance is analyzed. We develop an algorithm by which the planar area of platelets in the nacre-like design is randomly resized. Thereafter, the numerical models of nonuniform nacre-patterned multi-layer structures are developed and the drop-weight impact simulation is performed. The impact behaviors of the model are evaluated by using the ratio of absorbed energy, the von Mises stress distribution, and the impact force-time curve. Therefore, the effect of the geometric irregularity on the nacre-patterned design is elucidated. This insight can be efficiently utilized in establishing the optimum design of the nacre-patterned structure.

최근 국내 기후변화에 따른 국지성 집중호우로 인한 시간당 강우량의 증가로 도로부 유출량의 증가와 배수관거에서의 내수배제 불량에 따른 도심지 내수침수 피해가 증가함에 따라 이를 해결하기 위한 우수유출저감시설이 설치되고 있다. 그러나 대단위의 지하 저류시설의 지속적인 설치는 과밀화된 도심지에서 설치 지하공간의 구조적인 한계 및 적정 설치 위치의 미확보 등의 다양한 문제가 발생하여 저류시설의 침수저감 효과에 대한 추가적이고 새로운 저류시설에 대한 연구가 필요한 실정이다. 이에 내수 침수 저감 및 배수 능력 향상을 위한 도로 배수시설과 연계된 도로 측구부 저류시스템 구축이 필요하다. 이를 위해 역류 방지 및 노면수 저류 빗물받이에 적용되는 부력식 역류차단장치를 개발하였으며, 역류차단장치의 최적 형상 개발을 위해서 기존 빗물받이 연결관과의 통수능 비교 및 분석이 필요한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존 빗물받이 연결관 및 연결관 내에 역류차단장치가 적용된 역류차단 빗물받이의 흐름분석을 위해 Fluent 모형을 이용하여 3차원 수치모의를 수행하였다. 수치모의 구성으로는 전체 형상을 40×50cm의 빗물받이 유입부와 50×50cm의 빗물받이로 결정하고 격자는 빗물받이 내부의 복잡한 3차원 흐름을 모의하기 위해 1.2~2mm 크기로 생성하였다. 다상유동 해석을 위해 VOF(Volume of Fluid)방법을 적용하였고, 수치해석 방법으로는 비정상류, 난류 모형으로는 SST k-𝜔모형을 적용하였다. 해석조건으로는 김정수(2021) 등이 제시한 4차선 기준 설계빈도별(5~30년) 빗물받이 유입유량을 산정하여 빗물받이 유입조건으로 선정하였으며, 빗물받이와 연결관에서의 통수능력 분석 조건으로는 빗물받이에 기존 연결관이 부착된 조건과 연결관 내에 역류차단장치가 설치되어 역류차단장치가 개방된 조건에서의 통수능을 비교하였으며, 역류상황을 가정한 연결관에서의 통수능을 비교하기 위하여 역류차단장치의 개폐정도를 15도(통수단면 33%감소) 닫힌 상태 및 30도(통수단면 67% 감소) 닫힌 상태 조건을 대상으로 빗물받이와 연결관에서의 흐름을 모의하였다. 수치모의 결과 역류차단장치의 계폐조건에 상관없이 5년 빈도유입량 조건에서는 완전 배수가 되었으며, 개폐조건 15도에서는 10년 빈도의 유입량에서는 완전 배수가 되었으나 20년 빈도 이상의 유입량 조건에서 빗물받이 유입부로의 역류가 발생하였으며, 개폐조건 30도에서는 5년 빈도 이상 유입량 조건에서 빗물받이 유입부로 역류가 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 30년 빈도 이상의 유입량부터는 빗물받이 연결관 내에 역류차단장치 개페조건과 관계없이 빗물받이 유입부로의 역류로 인한 도로 침수가 발생하기 때문에 유휴공간인 도로 측구부를 저류공간으로 활용할 수 있는 도로 측구부 저류시스템의 구축은 필수적이라고 판단되며, 유량 조건에 따른 빗물받이 내부 와 흐름과 유출부에서의 유속 변화 특성을 확인하였다. 그러므로 측구 저류조 개발 형상과 연결한 3차원 흐름의 구현 및 분석에 Fluent 모형의 적용이 가능하다고 판단된다.

The performance of an air conditioner is closely related to the cooling performance of a split-type outdoor unit so that, in most of the relevant preceding studies, the independent performance of an axial fan in an outdoor unit has been studied. However, there is a lack of research on the effects of other components in an outdoor units was rarely investigated. Therefore, in this paper, the effects of the fan orifice among other parts on the flow performance of the outdoor unit was numerically investigated. A virtual fan tester consisting of 18 million grids was developed for highly resolved flow simulation. The unsteady RANS (Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes) equations are numerically solved by using finite-volume CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) techniques. In order to verify the validity of the numerical methods, the predicted P-Q curve of the cooling fan in a full outdoor unit is compared with the measured one. Optimization of orifice shape was carried out for maximum flow performance of the outdoor unit using the validated numerical method.

We have studied to obtain the frequency characteristics of the Surface Acoustic Wave(SAW) bandpass filter, having low shape factor, it's interdigital transducer(IDT) was formed on the 35° Y-cut X-propagation Quartz substrate and was evaporated by Aluminium. And then, we performed computer-simulation by a simulator. And, we can design that the apodization weighted type IDT as an input transducer of the filter and the withdrawal weighted type IDT as an output transducer of the filter from the results of our computer-simulation. Also, we have employed that the number of pairs of the input and output IDT are 2200 pairs and 1000pairs, respectively and used the Kaiser-Bessel window function in order to minimize the effect of ripple. And, while the width and the space of IDT's finger are 6㎛ m and 5.75㎛, respectively and we could obtain the resonable results when the IDT thickness was 6000Å in consideration of the ratio of SAW's wavelength, and IDT aperture is 2mm. Frequency response of the fabricated SAW bandpass filter has the property that the center frequency is about 70MHz, shape factor is less than 1.3, bandwidth at the 1.5dB is probably 1.3MHz, out-band attenuation is almost -45dB, insertion loss is 19dB and ripple in the width of bandpass is 1dB approximately. Therefore, these frequency characteristics of the fabricated SAW bandpass filter are agreed well with the designed values.

3D printing is an additive manufacturing technology that can produce complex shapes in a single process for a range of materials, such as polymers, ceramics, and metals. Recent 3D printing technology has developed to a level that enables the mass-production through an improvement of the printing speed and the continuous development of applicable materials. In this study, 3D printing technology using a laser was applied to manufacture a heat exchanger for an air compressor in a railway vehicle. First, the optimal design of the heat exchanger was carried out by focusing on weight reduction and compactness as a shape suitable for 3D printing. Based on the design derived, heat exchanger prototypes were made of AlSi10Mg alloy material by applying the SLM technique. Moreover, the manufactured prototypes were attached to an existing air compressor, and the heat exchange performance of the compressed air was tested. The test results of the 3D printed prototypes showed a heat exchange performance of approximately 80% and 85% at low and high-pressure, respectively, compared to the existing heat exchanger. From the 𝓔-NTU method results with an external cooling air condition similar to that of the existing heat exchanger, the calculated heat transfer amount of 3D printed parts showed similar performance compared to the existing heat exchanger. As a result, the 3D printed heat exchanger is lightweight with good performance.

The characteristics of flow field and turbulent mixing efficiency of SS in non-aerated contacting reactor are critical design parameters directly affecting on the efficiency of the overall process of wastewater treatment system. To this end, in this study numerical fluid dynamic calculation has been made to investigate the flow field and concentration distribution of SS in terms of specification(shape and dimension) of impeller and other operating conditions. As the first step, the performance of the computer program developed was successfully evaluated by the comparison of the typical flow field with the type of impeller with that appeared in open literature. Further, a series of parametric investigations are made in terms of interesting parameters such as the type and dimension of impeller, location, and number of impeller, etc. A number of useful conclusions obtained by numerical calculation are the superiority of mixing efficiency of pitched type than the flat one together with the visible increase of the overall mixing effect by the employment of the larger impeller and increase of the impeller number, etc.
