This study carried out numerical analysis of flow field of combustion gas and sorbent to test sorbent efficiency of DSI process. To provide rapid mixing for increase utilization rate of sorbent, streamwise vorticity can be introduced into the flowing streams by other means; for example, by installing vortex generators immediately downstream of the wavy trailing edge. Computing results show that the degree of sorbent dispersion depends strongly on duct structure. Highest dispersion efficiency received when vortex generator was installed inside of duct. The results presented in this study a optimum condition for the development of practical DSI process.

By using unique experimental techniques and careful construction of the experimental apparatus, the characteristics of the local heat transfer were investigated using the condensing R134a two-phase flow, in horizontal single mini-channels. The circular channels ($D_h=0.493$, 0.691, and 1.067 mm) and rectangular channels ($D_h=0.494$, 0.658, and 0.972 mm) were tested and compared. Tests were performed for a mass flux of 100, 200, 400, and 600 $kg/m^2s$, a heat flux of 5 to 20 $kW/m^2$, and a saturation temperature of $40^{\circ}C$. In this study, effect of heat flux, mass flux, vapor qualities, hydraulic diameter, and channel geometry on flow condensation were investigated and the experimental local condensation heat transfer coefficients are shown. The experimental data of condensation Nusselt number are compared with existing correlations.

A two-dimensional immiscible droplet deformation phenomena on moving wall in a channel has been investigated by using lattice Boltzmann method involving two-phase model. The dependence of the deformation of the droplet with different sizes on the contact angle and the velocity of bottom wall has studied. When the bottom wall starts to move, the deformation of the droplet occurs. For the largest bottom wall velocity, eventually, the deformation of the droplet is classified into the three patterns according to the contact angle.

본 논문에서는 Fuzzy-PID Control을 이용한 2축 도립진자를 제어한다. X-Y 축을 움직이는 카트에는 도립진자가 세워져 있으며 카트가 2축의 평면상에 원하는 위치로 빠르고 정확하게 이동할 수 있게 하는 동시에 도립진자의 균형을 깨뜨리지 않고 움직이는 것을 제어의 목표로 한다. Fuzzy-PID Control은 도립진자의 균형에 대한 제어뿐만 아니라 로봇의 위치 제어까지 적용된다. 본 연구 논문에서는 이러한 Fuzzy-PID 적용 시스템에 대한 시뮬레이션을 실행함으로 그 우수성을 입증 하고자 한다.

The conventional approach to evaluate the contaminant transport in soils adopts the macro-scale implementation while the pore configuration and network is a dominant factor to determine the fate of contaminant. However, the observation of fate and transport at pore scale may not be readily approachable because of the computational expenses to solve Navier-Stokes equation. We herein present the 2D Lattice-Boltzmann method that enables to assess the local fluid velocity and density efficiently for the case of single phase and multi-components. The solute fate spatio-temperal space is explicitly determined by the advection of fluid flow. Two different types of idealized pore space provides the path of fluid. Also, solute transport, the velocity field and average concentration of solute are computed in steady state. Results show that the pore geometry such as tortuosity mainly affect the solute fate. It highlights the significance of the pore configuration and shape in granular soils and rock discontinuity in spite of the equivalent porosity.

The instrumentation was studied in order to measure aerodynamic performance and efficiency of a compressor as a component of a 5MW-class gas turbine for power generation. In case of an axial compressor, the distributions of static pressure on a casing can be obtained by averaging at each stage and those of total pressure and temperature in the flow field of the compressor can be measured with a Kiel temperature probe. In case of a centrifugal compressor, the static pressures at the hub and the tip, respectively, of an impeller exit are considerably different, so the pressures need to be measured at both positions and thereafter averaged. The distributions of static pressures in a diffuser and a deswirler are measured at ten positions along five streamlines in one pitch. In addition the flow field can be measured in detail by 5-hole Pitot tube in order to analyze the flow characteristics of the core flow region and wake region and the rotor-stator interaction of the compressor.

Fast pyrolysis of Quercus acutissima was carried out in a fluidized bed pyrolyser and then the physicochemical properities of obtained bio-oil were analyzed using GC/MS. The yields of bio-oil of Quercus acutissima and Larix leptolepis from a fluidized bed pyrolyzer were maximized at $350^{\circ}C\;and\;400^{\circ}C$, respectively. This is due to the difference or cellulose content between the two tree species. Above the optimum temperature, the yields of char and oil decreased as the reaction temperature increased, but the yield of gas-phase and water fraction increased. It is concluded that this phenomenon is occured by secondary pyrolysis in the free board. The feeding rate of the sample in a fluidized bed pyrolyser did not affect the yields and composition of products, because of a sufficient mixing between bed materials and sand.

Photocatalyst deposited beads were prepared by fluidized bed chemical vapor deposition (FB-CVD) under various operating conditions of substrates, bed temperature, pressure, and oxygen concentration. Photocatalytic degradation of acetaldehyde was carried out to determine the optimum operating condition of prepared photocatalysts. They were characterized by using FE-SEM, XRD, and XPS. From the FE-SEM photographs, it was found that the surfaces of titania-coated beads were covered with crystal form, particle form, and slick form of titania on alumina, silica-gel, and glass beads, respectively. From the result of photocatalytic degradation of acetaldehyde, it was found that prepared titania/ alumina beads at $600^{\circ}C$, 5 torr showed superior performance to others, and oxygen flow rate has no significant effect.

In order to investigate the characteristics of electromagnetic flowmeter in two -phase flow, an AC electromagnetic flowmeter was designed and manufactured. In various flow conditions, the signals and noises from the flowmeter were obtained and analyzed by comparison with the observed flow patterns with a high speed CCD camera. The experiment with the void simulators in which rod shaped non-conducting material was used was carried out to investigate the effect of the bubble position and the void fraction on the flowmeter. Based on the results from the void simulator, two -phase flow experiments encompassed from bubbly to slug flow regime were conducted. The simple relation $\Delta$ $U_{TP}$ = $\Delta$ $U_{SP}$ (l-$\alpha$) was verified with measurements of the potential difference and the void fraction. Due to the lack of homogeneity in a rent two -phase flow, the discrepancy between the relation and the present measurement was slightly increased with void fraction and also liquid volumetric flux jf. Whereas there is no difference in the shape of the raw signal between single-phase flow and bubbly flow, the signal amplitude for bubbly flow is higher than that for single -phase flow at the same water flow rate, since the passage area of the water flow is reduced. In the case of slug flow, the phase and the amplitude of the flowmeter output show dramatically the flow characteristics around each slug bubble and the position of a slug bubble itself. Therefore, the electromagnetic flowmeter shows a good possibility of being useful for identifying the flow regimes.ul for identifying the flow regimes.

An endwall boundary layer fence technique was adapted to improve the aerothermal environment of a gas turbine passage. The shape optimization of the fence was performed to maximize the improvement. The turbine passage was simulated by a $90^{\circ}$ turning duct (ReD=360,000). The main purpose of the present investigation was to focus on finding a endwall boundary layer fence with minimum total pressure loss in the passage and heat transfer coefficient on the endwall of the duct. Anothor objective function was to minimize the area on the endwall of the duct. An approximate optimization method was used for the investigation to secure the computational efficiency. Results indicated that a significant improvement in aerodynamic environment can be achieved through the application of the fence. Improvement of the thermal environment was smaller than that of the aerodynamic enviroment.
