지난 수십 년간 순환유동층과 riser 반응기에 관한 연구는 상당한 진전을 이뤄왔다. 비록, 순환유동층(riser)반응기가 전형적인 유동층에 비해 여러 가지 장점 -높은 기-고의 접촉효율, 높은 기체와 고체의 처리량, 기상과 고상의 낮은 축방향 분산, 높은 turndown ratio, 점결성 입자의 처리-을 가지고 있으나, 불균일한 기-고의 흐름에 의한 고체의 역혼합(back-mixing)으로, 기체와 고체의 반경방향의 분리를 일으켜 두상간의 접촉을 감소시켜 생성물의 균일성과 선택도를 감소시킨다. 이러한 riser 반응기의 단점을 보완하기 위해 최근에는 기-고의 하향흐름을 갖는 downer(downflow) 반응기에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다.

In the present paper a statistical method using probability density function has been applied to investigate experimentally the flow patterns and fluctuations of time-averaged local void fraction in air-water two-phase mixtures which flow vertically upwards in concentric annuli. This study was carried out using three vertical concentric annuli. The annular test section consists of a lucite outer tube whose inside diameter is 38mm and a stainless steel inner rod. The rod diameter is either 12mm, 16mm or 20mm. The two-phase flow patterns observed in the experiment were bubbly, slug, annular and each transition patterns. It was first demonstrated that the variance, coefficients of skewness and kurtosis calculated from probability density function on time-averaged local void fraction can be used to identify the flow patterns in the annular passage, and the fluctuation of time-averaged local void fraction varies with the radial position in annular gap and the flow pattern.

한국형 차세대원자로에서는 비상노심 안전주입수가 저온관을 통하지 않고 원자로용기에 직접 주입된다. 원자로용기의 가압열충격과 열수력적 관점에서 최적의 노즐위치를 결정하기 위해서 전산유체역학을 활용하였다. 상용 전산유체코드인 CFX를 이용하여 원자로 하향유로를 모사하는 해석대상 격자를 다중불록으로 형성한 다음 유동장을 비압축성 Navier-Stokes 운동량 방정식, 에너지 방정식과 표준 k-ε 난류모형 등으로 모형화하여 3차원 비정상상태 계산을 수행하였다. CFX에서는 경계 밀착좌표계, 비엇물림격자와 SIMPLE 알고리즘을 사용한다. 본 연구결과 원자로용기의 가압열충격 관점에서 가장 보수적인 사고인 증기관 파단사고시에도 열적혼합이 잘 일어나 가압열충격이 발생할 가능성이 없는 것으로 판단되며 안전주입수 노즐이 저온관 바로 위에 위치할 때 원자로 하향유로 내의 온도 분포가 가장 균일하여 열적 혼합 관점에서는 최적의 위치로 판단된다.

The flow characteristics in a solid particle incinerator are investigated numerically for high burning rate of wastes. The studied incinerator employs both a swirl flow used in the furnace of powerplants and a design concept applied to a rocket combustor. As the first step, the non-reactive flow field is analyzed in the incinerator with primary and secondary injectors through which solid fuel and air are injected. The deflection angle of a primary injector, inclination angle of a secondary injector, and gap between the two types of injectors are selected as design parameters. The swirl number is adopted for evaluating the degree of swirl flow and estimated over wide ranges of three parameters. The swirl number increases with deflection angle, but it is affected little by inclination angle. Recirculation zones are formed near the injectors, and their size affects the swirl number. The swirl number decreases with the zonal size of recirculation. From the numerical results, the design points can be found with strong swirl flow.

Natural convection from a slightly inclined circular cylinders immersed in quiescent cold pure water was studied experimentally. The experiment was carried out for circular cylinders with uniform heat flux ranging from $100W/m^{2} to 800 W/m^{2}$ and inclined angle ranging from horizontal $({\phi}=0^{\circ}) to 15^{\circ}$. The flow fields around cylinder were visualized and heat transfer characteristics investigated by measuring the surface temperatures for each case. As the results, it is shown that flow patterns are changed consecutively through the sequence of steady state downflow, unsteady state flow and steady state upflow with increasing heat flux. At the same inclined angle, as heat flux increases, the average Nusselt number decreases and then increases. At the same heat flux, as inclined angle increases, the average Nusselt number decreases.

The study on ice thermal storage system is to improve total system performance in actual air-conditioning facilities. To attain the high efficiencies in ice thermal storage system, the improvement of thermal stratification is essential, therfore the process flow must be piston flow in thermal storage tank. Ice packing factor is better on condition that the inflowing temperature is low, the flow direction in the thermal storage is upward and the cylindericalthermal storage type is used. This result shows that the cylinderical ice storage tank has better storage capacity than the rectangular type in case of the same porocity.

Plate heat exchangers have been widely used in various fields because of their high heat transfer coefficients, small area of installation, and ease of maintenance compared to other heat exchangers. However, when plate heat exchanger is used for a long time, leak can occur due to inner crack. Therefore, it is important to understand the inner flow characteristics in plate heat exchangers. In this study, the inner flow characteristics and flow rate of plate heat exchanger were evaluated using various flow directions, pin-hole sizes, and Reynolds numbers. In downflow, initially most water flowed to the opposite of the inlet due to distribution region. Then it gradually had a uniform distribution due to chevron configuration. In upflow, it had a uniform flow consistently due to the dominant gravity effect. As the Reynolds number increased, the leak rate was decreased due to the inertia effect regardless of the flow direction.

Recently, the technology of device-to-device(D2D) communication has been receiving big attention to improve the system performance since the amount of high quality/large capacity data traffic from smart phones and various devices of Internet of Things increase rapidly in 5G/6G based next generation cellular networks. However, even though the system performance of macro cells increase by reusing the frequency, the performance of macro user equipments(MUEs) decrease because of the strong interference from D2D user equipments(DUEs). Therefore, this paper proposes a dynamic channel management(DCM) scheme for DUEs to guarantee the performance of MUEs as the number of DUEs increases in next generation downlink cellular networks. In the proposed D2D DCM scheme, macro base stations dynamically assign subchannels to DUEs based on the interference information and signal to interference and noise ratio(SINR) of MUEs. Simulation results show that the proposed D2D DCM scheme outperforms other schemes in terms of the mean MUE capacity as the threshold of the SINR of MUEs incareases.

Quenching phenomena of hemispherical downward facing convex surfaces with narrow gaps have been investigated experimentally. Experiments employed test sections having 1 and 2 mm in gap thickness and 1 atm in system pressure. From interpretations of the temperature and the heat flux history, it was found that the flooding inside the gap was restricted by CCFL phenomena and quenching process was propagated from lower to upper region of the internal copper shell. The ratio of the maximum heat fluxes at 1 mm to 2mm in gap thickness was the almost same that obtained by steady state experiments. The quenching scenario of the hemispherical downward facing surface with narrow gap has been suggested.

This experimental study was conducted to figure out the characteristics of convective heat transfer non boiling vertical downward flow with polymer additives. This experiment was studied in diameter, 800mm heating length and $1{\times}10^5 W/m^2$ heat flux. The polymer concentration ranged 0ppm to 500ppm with corresponding from superficial liquid velocity 1.25m/s to 2.5m/s in non bo vertical up and downward flow. Experimental results show that the characteristics of convective transfer was a strong function of polymer concentration and it has decreased with increasing polymer concentration in non boiling up and vertical downward flow.
