The present article proposes a new droplet collision model including the stretching separation regime and the formation of satellite droplets. The new model consists of a several equations to calculate the post-collision characteristics of colliding droplets and satellite droplets. These equations are derived from the energy balance of droplets between before and after collision. For binary collision of water droplets, the new model shows good agreement with experimental data for the number of satellite droplets. Nevertheless, it is thought that, in order to guarantee the generality of the new model, the improvements should be performed to consider the effects of the bouncing and the reflexive separation, which is essential process in the collision of hydrocarbon droplets.

A drop impact on the liquid film/pool generates several phenomena such as the drop floating, bouncing, formation of vortex ring, jetting, bubble entrapment and splashing. These phenomena depend on the impact velocity, the drop size, the drop properties and the liquid film/pool thickness. These parameters can be summarized by four main dimensionless parameters; Weber number, Ohnesorge number, Froude number and non-dimensional film/pool thickness. In the present study, the phenomena of the splashing and bubble entrapment due to the drop impact on the liquid film/pool were numerically investigated by using a Level Set method for the sharp interface tracking of two distinct phases. After the drop impact, the splashing phenomena with the crown formation and spreading were predicted. Under the specific conditions, the bubble entrapment at the base of the collapsing cavity due to the drop impact was also observed. The numerical results were compared to the available experimental data showing good agreements.

In this study, we show the maximum cavity radius prediction model that a droplet impacts an inclined bath. Surface tensions, viscosities, inclination angles of a bottom substrate, droplet diameters, falling heights of the droplet are varied for the experiment. We experimentally observe that the cavity grows in hemispherical shape like the cavity formed in a deep bath although the depth of the bath is non-uniform due to an inclined bottom substrate. We derive two theoretical models to predict the experimental results of the fully developed cavity. Although each model has error, we observe that qualitatively theoretical model predicts the trend of experiment results well.

Droplet impingement on solid surfaces is pivotal for a range of spray and heat transfer processes. This study aims to optimize the cooling performance of single droplet impingement on heated textured surfaces. We focused on maximizing the cooling effectiveness or the total contact area at the droplet maximum spread. For efficient estimation of the optimal values of the unknown variables, we introduced an enhanced Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO). These novel algorithms incorporate its developed theoretical backgrounds to compare proper optimized results. The comparison, considering the peak values of objective functions, computation durations, and the count of penalty particles, confirmed that PSO method offers swifter and more efficient searches, compared to GA algorithm, contributing finding the effective way for the spray and droplet impingement process.

산업기술의 고도화에 따른 IT 산업의 급속한 발전으로 각종 전자, 정보통신기기에 대해 더욱 소형화 고성능화를 요구하고 있다. 이와 같은 경향에 따라 더욱 향상된 기능을 가지고 각종 소자 부품의 개발과 동시에 유독 물질 발생이 없는 청정생산기술 개발에 대한 요구가 끊임없이 제기 되어 왔다. 이러한 요구에 부응하여 기술들이 개발되고 있으며 그 중의 하나로 잉크젯 프린팅 기술이 연구되고 있다. 특히 Dod(Drop on Demand) 방식의 잉크젯은 가정용 프린터로 개발되어 널리 보급된 기술이지만, 이 기술을 PCB 제조기술에 전용하면 친환경 생산공정으로 부품 성장밀도를 증대 시킬 수 있다. 기존의 PCB 제조기술은 전극과 신호 패턴을 형성시키기 위하여 노광공정과 에칭공정을 반복적으로 사용하고 있는데, 노광공정에서 쓰이는 마스크와 유틸리티 설비 유지 비용의 문제가 대두되고 있다. 노즐로부터 분사된 잉크 액적들의 집합으로 기판위에 점/선/면의 인쇄이미지를 구현하게 된다. 그러므로 인쇄 해상도는 잉크액적 및 인쇄 방법, 기판과의 상호작용에 크게 의존하게 된다. 잉크 액적과 기판의 상호작용에 영향을 미치는 요소로는 잉크의 물리화학적 물성(밀도, 점도, 표면장력), 잉크 액적의 충돌 조건(액적 지름, 부피, 속도), 그리고 기판의 특성(친수/소수성, Porous/Nonporous, 표면조도 등)을 들 수 있겠다. 우선적으로 노즐을 통과해서 분사되는 액적의 크기에 따라 기판위에 형성되는 라인의 두께 및 폭이 결정된다. 떨어진 액적이 기판위에서 퍼지는 것을 UV 조사를 통한 가경화 과정을 통해서 최종적으로 라인의 투께 및 폭을 조절하려고 한다. 따라서 선폭 $75{\mu}m$의 일정한 미세 배선을 형성시키기 위해 액적 크기 조절과 탄착 resist 액적 표면의 UV 가경화 조건으로 구현하려고 한다. 또한 DPI(Dot Per Inch) 조절을 통한 인쇄로 탄착 resist의 두께 확보 후 에칭시 박리되는 현상을 억제 시키려 한다.

In this study, the behavior of water droplet impacting on a thin horizontal wire was visualized by time-delay photography. The impact behavior modes, critical capture speed and trapped mass were analyzed by changing the droplet size, velocity, wire diameter and eccentricity ratio. As the Weber number increased, the hanging, merging, and splitting modes appeared sequentially for the case of central impact, and the hanging and non-splitting modes appeared for the case of off-center impact. The boundary We number of each mode was affected by the diameter ratio. The critical capture speed was affected much by the degree of eccentricity. For all diameter ratios, it was higher for the case of central impact than for off-center impact. The trapped mass was larger for the case of central impact than for off-center impact and it increased with the smaller We number and the larger diameter ratio.

In this paper an experimental study is presented of the problem of dynamic behavior of a water droplet impinging upon a heated surface. The experiments are mainly focused on the effects of impinging angle of a droplet and surface temperature on the impact dynamics of the droplet. It Is clarified that the droplet exhibits much different behavior depending on the normal momentum of an impinging droplet before impact. At surface temperature In the nucleate boiling regime. the disintegration of a droplet doesn't occur, whereas the deforming droplet adheres to the surface. The spreading and contraction of the liquid film is repeated a couple of times for the horizontal surface but the expanded droplet just slips without noticeable contraction for the inclined surfaces. In the film boiling regime, the impinging droplet spreads over the surface as a liquid film which is separated from the surface by produced vapor. Depending on the magnitude of the normal momentum of the droplet the disintegration into the several irregular shapes of liquid elements occurs for the horizontal and 30o-inclined surfaces, whereas the impinging droplet for the 60o-inclined surface doesn't break up and tends to recover the original spherical shape.

In this study, the behavior of the droplet colliding with parallel wires was analyzed by time-delay photography. The impact behavior modes and the critical capture speed were analyzed by changing fluids, the droplet velocity, the wire diameter and the distance between wires. Seven typical modes of impacting droplet on parallel wires were observed. The tendency of mode change was generally similar when the wire diameter was changed, but the increase of the wire diameter caused the increase of the droplet velocity at which the mode changed. The modes at the highest droplet velocity were the splitting mode when the wires were closest, the passing and splitting mode in the middle, and the passing mode when the wires were farthest apart. The critical capture speed increased as the wire diameter increased and the distance between wires decreased. The ethanol droplet showed the lowest critical capture speed.

In a spray experiment using a venturi mounted on a lean premixed LPP injector, droplets appear to have non-uniform distributions. To solve this problem, the exit angle of the venturi was changed to form a dump surface on the nozzle neck. The dump surface improved the atomization performance and minimized droplet loss while forming recirculation zone in the venturi exit. In order to solve the non-uniform spray of the injector, the flow characteristics inside the venturi and SMD of the spray are compared. Finally, an optimum venturi shape is selected to minimize the spray loss and improve the spray performance.

This paper describes thermal flow characteristic in various pipelines: straight pipeline and curved pipeline. In the Arctic and ocean area, pipelines are exposed to a extremely low temperature ($0{\sim}-40^{\circ}C$). In this situation, three-dimensional flow analysis should be analyzed to investigate thermal effects such as pressure drop, temperature change, velocity deficit and distribution change of liquid droplet of internal fluid. Also, due to freezing of water droplet, impingement erosion is expected in the curved pipeline. The stability of the pipelines can be influenced by impingement erosion. In this paper, multi-phase and multi-species analysis was introduced to analyze the flow characteristics and impingement erosion of Arctic and ocean pipelines.
