Suction valve fluttering is generated by reciprocating motions of the piston inhaling and discharging process of gas in the hermetic compressor. A reactive type suction muffler, which produces high pressure-drop because of its complicated flow path, controls the impulsive noise radiated from the flutter of suction valve. The high-pressure drop in the muffler increases the transmission loss, but reduces the EER(Energy Efficiency Ratio) of the compressor. We consider how to design the high acoustic attenuation and low pressure-drop performance to take account of the acoustic and flow performances of the suction muffler. In this study, we identified the suction noise source of compressor from the measurement of the acoustic pulsation and flutter of suction valve. We analyzed the acoustic characteristics of muffler using the finite element method, and compared the experimental and analytical characteristics of flow path of suction muffler. Theoretical predictions and experimental results are compared from the viewpoint of the acoustic performance and energy efficiency of the compressor.

유동이 있는 경우 발생하는 소음에 대한 실험적 연구는 풍동과 무향실이 결합된 음향풍동에서 수행될 수 있다. 이러한 음향풍동은 팬, 수축부, 수집부, 확산부 그리고 무향실에 주의해서 설계되어야 하고 특히 각 부분에서 발생할 수 있는 이차소음을 최소화하도록 설계되어야 한다. 최종적으로 소음기와 흡음재를 이용해서 팬소음과 이차소음의 전파를 줄인다. 본 음향풍동은 개방형 흡입식(open suction type)으로 시험부에서 유속 62.8m/s, 난류강도 0.1%이하, 배경소음 50-55dB 이하로 설계되었다. 이러한 조건을 만족시키기 위하여 하니콤과 6장의 스크린이 있는 정체실과, 21:1의 수축비를 갖는 수축부를 이용하여 난류강도를 낮추고, 흡음재와 90도 각도의 모서리 그리고 공명형과 소산형 소음기로 소음의 전파를 줄였다.

Vortex and swirl occurring in a pump suction intake sump normally reduce the performance and disturb the safe operation of the circulation water pump in thermal power plants. This paper presents a case study of one particular intake sump design via a CFD analysis and a hydraulic model testing. The physical experiments and numerical analysis were performed under two flow and three level variation conditions. The vortex patterns around the pump suction pipe have been predicted by a commercial CFD code with the k-${\varepsilon}$ model. The model tests were conducted on a 1/10 model for a practical intake sump. The location, number and general pattern of the free surface vortex and submerged vortex predicted by CFD simulation were found to be a good agreement with those observed in the model testing.

Recently, the sludge suction collector is preferred rather than the scraper type sludge collector due to enhancement of the clarifier efficiency. The sludge suction collector is usually operated by the user's experience without any scientific and technical consideration. There are many factors that should be considered for higher quality of discharged water and stabilized flow in the rectangular sludge suction collector but, the optimal design on the inflow channel and orifices connecting with the inflow channel is needed for similar flow rates at the orifices. The 4 cases of channel geometry are considered and mass flow rates of each case at the orifices are evaluated using Computational Fluid Dynamics applied VOF(Volume of Fraction) model.

A thermal vapor compressor in which the subsonic/supersonic flow appears simultaneously, has been accurately designed through the CFD analysis for the various shape parameters such as the primary nozzle shape, converging duct shape, mixing tube diameter, and so on. The performance of the developed thermal vapor compressor has been experimentally verified to be installed in a Multi Effect Desalination(MED) plant as an important element. In this paper, the effects of each parameter are discussed on the basis of CFD results and the experimental results for various boundary conditions(motive pressure, suction pressure, and discharge pressure) are presented in compared with CFD results. The two results show a good agreement with each other within 2 % accuracy with regard to the entrainment ratio.

진공청소기는 가전 제품 중에서 인간의 일상생활에서 꼭 필요한 가전제품의 하나이다. 그러나, 성능 향상을 위한 과도한 회전 속도 때문에 큰 소음을 유발하며 그로 인해서 사용자에게 소음으로 인한 스트레스나 피로누적 등의 큰 불편을 초래하고 있다. 이것은 진공청소기내에 있는 팬 모터가 30000∼35000 rpm으로 고속회전을 통해서 측에 연결되어 있는 임펠러를 회전시켜 공기를 흡입, 배출시키는 일련의 작동을 하면서 여러 가지 진동 및 유체소음을 일으키기 때문이다. 이러한 진공청소기용 팬모터의 소음 저감 연구는 국내외 관련회사 및 연구소에서 활발히 진행되고 있다.(중략)

Four design candidates for a 1.4MW class partial admission turbine have been chosen from a Preliminary design process. Their performance were estimated through the 3-D numerical analyses using a frozen rotor method. In order to select the optimum design, each flow analysis result was compared with others. Flow characteristics in the passages and some types of losses induced by shocks and wakes were found from calculation results. Based on these calculations, a new rotor blade was redesigned and compared with previous one through flow analysis.

This paper describes the forced flame response in a turbulent premixed gas turbine combustor. The fuel was premixed with the air upstream of a choked inlet to avoid equivalence ratio fluctuations. To impose the inlet flow velocity, a siren type modulation device was developed using an AC motor, rotating and static plates. Measurements were made of the velocity fluctuation in the nozzle using hot wire anemometry and of the heat release fluctuation in the combustor using chemiluminescence emission. The test results showed that flame length as well as geometry was strongly dependent upon modulation frequency in addition to operating conditions such as inlet velocity. Convection delay time between the velocity perturbation and heat release fluctuations was calculated using phase information of the transfer function, which agreed well with the results of flame length measurements. Also, basic characteristics of the flame nonlinear response shown in the current test conditions were introduced.

This paper presents a numerical study on the design of side-suction inlet geometry which is used for multi stage centrifugal pumps or inline centrifugal pumps. In order to achieve an optimum inlet geometry and to explain the interactions between the different geometric configurations, the three dimensional computational fluid dynamics and the design of experiment methods have been applied. Geometric design variables describing the cross sectional area distribution through the inlet were selected. The objective functions are defined as the non-uniformity of the velocity distribution at the passage exit which is just in front of the impeller eyes. From the 2k factorial design results, the most important design variable was found and the performance of the side suction inlet was improved compared to the base line shape.
