In the present study, the aerodynamic characteristics of elliptic airfoils are investigated numerically based on the RANS equations and the S-A turbulent model on unstructured meshes. Unlike the NACA series airfoil sections, elliptic airfoils have a relatively small leading edge radius and a rounded trailing edge. Also the maximum thickness is located in the middle of the chord. This geometric characteristics are responsible for the difference in the aerodynamic characteristics from those of NACA family airfoils. To identify the aerodynamic characteristics of elliptic airfoils, the results were compared with those of NACA series airfoils with a same maximum thickness. The effect of airfoil thickness variation on the aerodynamic characteristics were also investigated.

Elliptical gear is used as a rotor of oval flowmeter. The elliptical gear can assist water flow-rate measurement by the space of the elliptical shape. Presently, elliptical gears have been processed using hob tool imported from Japan. But if it were not for the technical cooperation with Japan company, the Elliptical gears can't be processed. The purpose of this study is developing a domestic technology for elliptical gears and overcoming the dependence of foreign technical skills. It will bring the import substitution effect. In case of pressure angle $20^{\circ}$, the elliptical gears have an interference of tooth. The increase of pressure angle makes the root of a tooth thick and the top of tooth thin. By results of this study, tooth of elliptical gear was designed and verified through the 2D and 3D simulation.

Elliptical gears are used in the oval flowmeter and oval flow meter inspects volume of water thanks to space by the elliptical shape. The purpose of this study is to judge accuracy of processing of the elliptical gear and develop inspection system using machine vision. Demand of machine vision is increasing while the factory automation is spreading and principle factor in-process inspection. But, gear inspection using the machine vision rarely used because of complex shape of gear. In this study, it seems possible that elliptical gear is inspected by inspection software using machine vision and inspection program can judge accuracy of processing of the elliptical gear designed this study.

NURBS 곡면식으로 정의된 물체 표면상에서 표면 정렬 격자를 생성할 수 있는 방법을 소개하였다. 공학 응용분야에서의 물체 표면 정의는 여러 개의 패치들로 표현되는 것이 일반적이고, 여기서 소개하는 표면격자 생성기법은 이러한 여러 패치들에 걸쳐서 분포되는 정렬격자를 쉽게 생성할 수 있도록 한다 이 기법은 매개변수 형태의 타원형 격자생성 방정식의 해를 구하되, 여러 NURBS 패치에 걸쳐서 투영/분포된 초기 격자계를 타원형 방정식 반복계산 과정의 매개변수형 표면 정의식으로 임시 활용한다. 매개변수형 타원형 방정식의 해가 얻어지고 나면, 그 결과 격자계를 다시 NURBS 패치에 투영을 시키고 타원형 방정식의 해를 구하는 과정이 반복된다. 이러한 반복과정이 전체적으로 수렴이 이루어질 때까지 반복된다. 이 방법에 의해서 얻어지는 표면 정렬 격자계들은 타원형 격자생성기법의 특징인 완만성을 가지면서 정의된 물체표면에서 벗어나지 않는 격자점들이 된다. 소개된 방법은 간단하면서도 하나의 NURBS 곡면만이 아니라 여러 개의 NURBS 곡면에 걸쳐있는 정렬격자계를 효율적으로 생성할 수 있도록 해주며, 그 기본적인 접근법은 NURBS 곡면식 만이 아니라 다른 형태의 매개변수형 형상 정의식에도 적용이 가능하다.

A volume integral equation method (VIEM) is introduced for the solution of elastostatic problems in an unbounded isotropic elastic solid containing multiple isotropic elliptical fibers of arbitrary orientation subject to uniform stress at infinity. The fibers are assumed to be long parallel elliptical cylinders composed of isotropic elastic material perfectly bonded to the isotropic matrix. The solid is assumed to be under plane strain on the plane normal to the cylinders. A detailed analysis of the stress field at the matrix-fiber interface for square and hexagonal packing of the fibers is carried out for different values of the number, orientation angles and concentration of the elliptical fibers. The accuracy and efficiency of the method are examined through comparison with results obtained from analytical and finite element methods.

In this paper, we analyze theoritically the propagation and radiation characteristics for elliptical corrugated waveguides. The solutions of wave equations in an elliptic cylinder system are obtained in terms of Mathieu functions of 1st and 2nd kind. The electromagnetic fields in the elliptical corrugated waveguide can be represented by series and products of angular and radial Mathieu functions. By using impedence matching at the boundary between the inner region and the slot region, characteristic equations are derived. Then the characteristic equation is solved for $HE_{11}$ mode which is dominant mode in the elliptical corrugated waveguide and the fields in the aperture is calculated. And the propagation pattern for the elliptical corrugated waveguides is calculated through the field equivalence principle.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the internal nozzle flow and cavitation characteristics numerically in both circular and elliptical nozzles. The program FLUENT 6.2 was used to perform the numerical simulation of the cavitating flow in the nozzles. A comparison was made between the cavitation shapes predicted numerically and those found experimentally in order to validate the numerical solution. This study showed that the cavitation in the circular nozzle had a cylindrical shape that was symmetrical with the nozzle axis. However, the cavitation in the elliptical nozzles had a horseshoe-like shape. In addition, the radial velocity distribution varied between the major and the minor axis planes when the working fluid was flowing into the inlet.

Effect of elliptical orifice on the spray characteristics of liquid jet ejecting into subsonic crossflows were experimentally studied. Circular/elliptical plain-orifice injectors, which had different ratios of the orifice length to diameter and major axis to minor axis, were used for transverse injection. Compared with the previous research, breakup lengths of elliptical nozzles are shorter than circular nozzles at all experimental condition. Cavitation/hydraulic flip are considered as a reduction in the breakup length at all circular/elliptical nozzle. In the case of liquid column trajectories, major axis which was placed to the crossflows, increases the frontal area of the liquid column exposed to the crossflows. Hence, the aerodynamic force exerted on the jet is increased and the penetration depth is reduced.
