A numerical model was developed to predict the density wave oscillation (DWO) in the furnace wall tubes of a fossil-fired once-through boiler. The transient flow fields in the tubes were obtained using a 1D finite volume method in the time domain. A header model was also implemented to simulate the parallel tube connection of the wall tubes. The inlet and outlet mass flow variation in one of the parallel tubes was examined after a heat perturbation to find the DWO. After successful verification with experimental results reported in literature, the developed model was applied to the wall tubes of a 700-MW boiler furnace. In contrast to the simulation of Takitani's experiment, in which the unstable power thresholds tended to rise in the reduced bypass channel flow, no remarkable changes were observed in the power thresholds in the parallel channel modeling of the wall tubes of the boiler furnace.

The fully developed turbulent momentum and heat transfer induced by the square-ribed roughness elements on the inner wall surface in concentric annuli is studied analytically based on a modified turbulence model. The analytical results of the fluid flow is verified by experiment. The resulting momentum and heat transfer are discussed in terms of various parameters, such as the radius ratio, the relative roughness, the roughness density, fluid Reynolds number and for heat transfer, fluid Prandtl number. The study demonstrates that certain artificial roughness elements may be used to enhance heat transfer rates with advantages from the overall efficiency point of view.

In the present study, the cooling performance characteristics on environment changes of A/C applied fin-tube and PF heat exchangers were experimentally investigated. Capacity and COP on an air velocity, an indoor/outdoor temperature and an indoor/outdoor relative humidity were obtained. Fin types of PF heat exchanger were a triangler and squarer form. The experimental data for the three kinds of heat exchangers were measured using the air-enthalpy calorimeter. Performance of PF A/C was more excellent than that of a fin-tube A/C. Also, the performance of PF-2 A/C with the squarer fin was more excellent than that of PF-1 A/C with the triangler fin. As the air velocity, the indoor temperature and the indoor relative humidity increase, capacity and COP increase. And as outdoor temperature increases, capacity and COP decrease. But, the performance change on the outdoor relative humidity was insignificant.

본 연구에서는 유동과 냉각수를 이용하는 아이슬러리 제조관정을 관찰하고, 이 시스템의 가장 큰 문제점인 관내동결 특성을 파악하였다. 시험수로는 수도수(city water)를 이용하였다. 시스템을 순환하는 시험수가 제빙관내에서 $0^{\circ}C$ 이하의 과냉각 조건이 형성되어 제빙관을 빠져 나오면서 축냉조에 설치된 충격판상에서 과냉각 해소가 일어났다. 이때 유동과냉각수는 내부에너지를 방출하면서 그 일부가 얼음 입자로 상변화되었고, 나머지는 실험장치를 계속순환하였다. 제빙관에서 시험수와 브라인의 열교환 방식을 대향류와 평행류 두 조건에서 시험수의 과냉각도는 Reynolds 수가 증가함에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보였고, 이들 결과 값으로부터 각각의 관계식을 유도하였다. 또한 브라인의 냉각속도가 0.29~0.53[$^{\circ}C$/min] 범위에서 시험수의 과냉각도는 브라인 냉각속도에 종속되지 않았다.

This paper proposes new miniaturization method of parallel coupled line filter by using capacitors and grounding. Proposed method can reduce resonator size by using only a small number of capacitor and grounding of parallel coupled line filter which is conventional in field of RF filters because of its design and fabrication simplicity. This paper applies the miniaturization method of transmission line and parallel coupled line to parallel coupled line filter, and presents that grounding can reduce the number of shut capacitors. Presented miniaturized method has merits of miniaturization of parallel coupled line, harmonic suppression, and improvement of high frequency skirt with harmonic suppression. For verification of proposed method, this paper presents a hairpin filter, which has 900 MHz center frequency and 10 % FBW, miniaturized to λ/4 by proposed method.

A finite element analysis is used in this study to model 6 kinds of electrode by a genetic program in order to evaluate the mechanical effect on the 3D human cochlea model and the behavior of electrode. Human cochlea is modeled by the spiral-approximation method and the shape of scala tympani is extracted from the mid section of the human cochlea. Contact pressure at the tip and the insertion force are found to be highest when the wires stack horizontally. Axial rotation of electrode is minimal comparing with the stimulating current spread. The results indicate that the electrode stiffness is important to minimize the trauma.

The eddy current testing performance directly affects the results of a steam generator tube integrity assessment because the integrity assessment of defected tubes is conducted based on eddy current testing results. This means that it may not be possible to accurately discriminate between adjacent flaws. This paper presents an investigation on the resolution of rotating pancake coils with multiple cracks and the effects on the structural integrity assessment of steam generator tubes.

The present study describes a computational work to investigate detailed behaviors of the twin shock waves discharged from the exits of two-parallel ducts. In computations, the Yee-Roe-Davis's TVD scheme was used to solve the unsteady, three-dimensional, inviscid, compressible, Euler equations. The distance between two ducts is varied and the Mach number of the incident shock wave is changed below 2.0. The results obtained show that on the symmetric axis between two-parallel ducts, the maximum pressure achieved by the merge of twin shock waves and its location strongly depend upon the distance between two-parallel ducts and the Mach number of the incident shock wave. It is also found that the twin shock waves discharged from the exits of two-parallel ducts leads to the complicated flow fields, such as Mach stem, spherical waves, and vertical structures.

In the present study, performance characteristics on environment change of A/C applied fin-tube and PF heat exchangers were experimentally investigated. Capacity and COP changing an outlet air velocity, an indoor/outdoor temperature and a relative humidity were obtained. Air－enthalpy calorimeter was used. As the air velocity, indoor temperature and relative humidity increase, capacity and COP increase. PF A/C has smaller refrigerant weight than the fin-tube A/C. The performance of PF-2 A/C with the squarer fin was more excellent than that of PF-1 A/C with the triangler fin.
