The study of nonlinear gas transport in rarefied condition or associated with the microscale length of the geometry has emerged as an interesting topic in recent years. Along with the DSMC method, several fluid dynamic models that come under the general category of the moment method or the Chapman-Enskog method have been used for this type of problem. In the present study, on the basis of Eu's generalized hydrodynamics, computational models for diatomic gases are developed. The rotational nonequilibrium effect is included by introducing excess normal stress associated with the bulk viscosity of the gas. The new models are applied to study the one-dimensional shock structure and the multi-dimensional rarefied hypersonic flow about a blunt body. The results indicate that the bulk viscosity plays a considerable role in fundamental flow problems such as the shock structure and shear flow. An excellent agreement with experiment is observed for the inverse shock density thickness.

Starting from the Eu's GH(Generalized Hydrodynamic) theory, the multi-species GH numerical solver is developed in this research and its computatyional behaviors are examined for the hypersonic rarefied flow over an axisymmetric body. To improve the accuracy of the developed multi-species GH solver, various slip-wall boundary conditions are tested and the computed results are compared. Additionally, in order to validate the entropy characteristics of the GH equation, the entropy production and entropy generation rates of the GH equation are investigated in the 1-dimensional normal shock structure test at a high Knudsen number.

내경 0.1 m, 높이 5.3 m 의 순환유동층 반응기를 사용하여 기체의 역혼합특성을 조사하였다. 기체의 역혼합은 동일한 기상유속일때 고체순환속도가 증가할수록 증가하였다. 희박상영역에서 일정한 고체체류량에서는 기상유속이 증가할수록 벽면에서의 하강흐름도 증가되어 기체의 역혼합은 증가되었다. Tracer 주입위치가 반응기 벽면에서 중심으로 이동할수록 빠른 기체와 고체의 흐름으로 인하여 기체의 역혼합은 상당히 감소하였다. 그리고, 희박상영역에서 core-annulus 구조를 기초로 하여 기체역혼합과 core 와 annulus 간의 물질전달계수를 예측할 수 있는 모델식을 제안하였다.

Gas flow characteristics within the cylinder is important factors in impoving lean combustion stability. This paper shows the effects of various flow fields generated by a swirl control valve(SCV) on combustion process in a 4-valve spark ignition engine. An impulse swirl/tumble meter was used to elucidation the steady-state flow characteristics, and a rotating grating type LDV was developed to measure the mean velocity and tunbulence intensity in relation to the crank angle. These methodologies were applied to clarify the correlation between gas flow characteristics and combustion stability at a lean air fuel ratio. An analysis of the correlation revealed the gas flow conditions required to optimize a lean-burn system.

순환유동층 보일러는 연소로 (상승관: riser)내에 공기를 고속으로 주입하여 비말동반되는 고체입자를 사이클론에서 포집 하여 재주입하는 유동층을 이르는 것으로, 난류유동층(turbulent fluidized bed), 고속유동층(fast fluidized bed) 그리고 희박상 유동(dilute phase flow) 영역에서 조업이 이루어진다. 순환유동층은 비교적 높은 기체 유속에서 조업이 이루어지기 때문에 고체입자의 혼합 및 비산 그리고 재순환이 격렬하게 이루어지고, 기-고체간 접촉효율 및 전열계수가 높아 전체적인 처리량 및 효율이 좋은 장점을 가지고 있다.(중략)

A kinetic theory analysis is made of low-speed rarefied gas flows around a flat plate. The Boltzmann equation simplified by a collision model is solved by means of a finite difference approximation with the discrete ordinate method. The method does not suffer from statistical noise which is common in particle based methods and requires much less amount of computational effort. Calculations are made for flows around a micro-scale flat plate with a finite length of 20 microns. The method is assessed by comparing the results with those from several different methods and available experimental data.

금속을 청정 에너지원으로 이용하기 위해 분말형 금속연료 연소시스템이 필요하고, 이에 대한 선행연구로 분말을 정량 공급할 수 있는 공급기를 설계 제작하였다. 유동층 방식의 분말 공급에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 변수들을 피스톤 및 벤츄리관이 적용된 공급 방법을 사용하여 통제한 후, 조절 가능한 공급기 내부 압력만을 변수로 하여 중요 성능인 분말 공급량을 직접적인 중량 측정 방법으로 측정하였다. 측정 실험의 결과로부터 연소시스템에 적용할 공급기의 작동 조건을 도출할 수 있었고, 작동 조건에서 벗어난 영역에서 분말 공급기가 가지고 있는 문제점을 확인하였다.

Generalized hydrodynamic (GH) theory for multi-species gas and the computational models are developed for the numerical simulation of hypersonic rarefied gas flow on the basis of Eu's GH theory. The rotational non-equilibrium effect of diatomic molecules is taken into account by introducing excess normal stress associated with the bulk viscosity. The numerical model for the diatomic GH theory is developed and tested. Moreover, with the experience of developing the dia-tomic GH computational model, the GH theory is extended to a multi-species gas including 5 species; O$_2$, N$_2$, NO, O, N. The multi-species GH model includes diffusion relation due to the molecular collision and thermal phenomena. Two kinds of GH models are developed for an axisymmetric flow solver. By compar-ing the computed results of diatomic and multi-species GH theories with those of the Navier-Stokes equations and the DSMC results, the accuracy and physical consistency of the GH computational models are examined.

Size and shape of carbon nanotube (CNT) agglomerates in the dilute phase of a bubbling fluidized bed ($0.15m\;i.d{\times}2.6m\;high$) have been determined by the laser sheet technique. Axial solid holdup distribution of the CNT particles showed S curve with dense phase and dilute phase in bubbling fluidization regime. Heywood diameter and Feret diameter of the CNT agglomerates in the dilute phase of bubbling fluidized bed increased with increasing gas velocity. The CNT particle number in the agglomerates increased with increasing of gas velocity. Aspect ratio increased and circularity, roundness and solidity decreased with increasing of gas velocity. A possible mechanism of agglomerates formation was proposed based on the obtained information.
