An experimental investigation or the sonic and supersonic air ejector systems has beer conducted to develop design and prediction programs for practical ejector system. Five different primary nozzles have been employed to operate the ejector systems in the ranges of low and moderate operating pressure ratios. The ejector operating pressure ratio for the secondary chamber pressure to be minimized has a strong influence of the ejector throat ratio. The pressure inside the ejector diffuser is not dependent on the primary nozzle configurations employed but only a function of the ejector operating pressure ratio. Experimental results show that a supersonic ejector system is more desirable for obtaining high vacuum pressure of the secondary chamber than a sonic ejector system.

As an automobile tends to be high grade, the needs for more luxurious interior and comfortable HVAC system are emerged. The defrosting ability is another major factor of the performances of HVAC system. The present work is to simulate the flow and the temperature field of cabin interior during the defrost mode. The three-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and energy equation were solved on the multi blocked grid system by the iterative time marching method and AF scheme, respectively. The present computations were validated by the comparison of the temperature field of a driven cavity and velocity field of 1/5 model scale of an automobile. Generally good agreements were obtained. By the present computation, the complicated features of flow and temperature within the automotive cabin interior could be well understood.

The performance of track cleaning trains to remove accumulated fine particulate matter in subway tunnels depends on the design of the suction system equipped under the train. To increase the efficiency of the suction system under the cleaning vehicle, this paper proposes a novel dust suction module equipped with both air blowing nozzles and a dust suction structure. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis with turbulent flow was conducted to optimize the dust suction system with a particle intake and blowing function. The optimal angle of the air blowing nozzle to maximize the dust removal rate was found to be 6 degrees. The performance of the track cleaning vehicle can be increased by at least 10 percent under an operation speed of 5km/h.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the heat transfer augmentation using the perforated plate placed in front of a target plate in an axisymmetric impinging air jet system. The new liquid crystal technique using neural networks with median filtering is used to determine the Nusselt number distributions on the target surface. The experiments were made for the jet Reynolds number (Re) 23,000. The effects of the pitch-to-diameter (p/d1) from 1.5 to 2.5 in the perforated plate, the hole diameter on perforated plate (d1) from 4㎜ to 12㎜, the perforated plate to target surface distance (z/d1) from 1 to 3, and the nozzle-to-target surface distance (L/d) from 2 to 10 on the heat transfer characteristics were experimentally investigated. It was found that when the perforated plate was located between the nozzle exit and the target plate, the average heat transfer rate at the stagnation region corresponding to r/d$\leq$1.0 was increased up to the maximum 2.3 times compared to the case without the perforated plate.

Air gun shock systems are commonly used as alternative explosion energy sources for underwater explosion (UNDEX) shock tests owing to their low cost and environmental impact. The airbag inflator of automotive airbag systems is also very useful to generate extremely rapid underwater gas release in labscale tests. To overcome the restrictions on the very small computational time step owing to the very fine fluid mesh around the nozzle hole in the explicit integration algorithm, and also the absence of a commercial solver and software for gas UNDEX of airbag inflator, an idealized airbag inflator and fluid mesh modeling technique was developed using nozzle holes of relatively large size and several small TNT charges instead of gas inside the airbag inflator. The objective of this study is to validate the results of an UNDEX response analysis of one and two idealized airbag inflators by comparison with the results of shock tests in a small water tank. This comparison was performed using the multi-material Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian formulation and fluid-structure interaction algorithm. The number, size, vertical distance from the nozzle outlet, detonation velocity, and lighting times of small TNT charges were determined. Through mesh size convergence tests, the UNDEX response analysis and idealized airbag inflator modeling were validated.

The fine dust generated in the home and restaurant business occupies a low ratio of about 4% of the total fine dust emissions. However, at the foodservice business, the rate of change of the pollutant concentration is very high, so that the temporary fine dust concentration can be measured up to 60 times. The pollutants generated from non-industrial combustion plants consist of particulate fine dust and gaseous organic compounds. To remove these pollutants, cleaning dust collection system, which is an effective system for simultaneous removal of gaseous and particulate matter, is applied. This is a method of increasing the probability of diffusion capture of the Brownian motion by pressurized liquid injection method using the atomizing nozzle. The dust removal efficiency of the fine dust collecting system was analyzed by nozzle spraying air pressure condition and angle using the manufactured fine dust removing system. As a result, it was confirmed that the efficiency of removal of fine dust and gaseous organic compounds was more than 90%. The developed system is expected to be highly usable in the future because it can remove particulate dust from the existing plant hood system without any installation cost.

In grinding process, the heat of $1200^{\circ}$~$1500^{\circ}$ on the grinding area between grinding wheel and workpiece is generated. It decreases the surface integrity of workpiece and causes the thermal damages such as the deformed layer, residual stress and grinding burn. Generally coolant is widely used for preventing the heat generation on the grinding area, but it deteriorates the working condition by polluting the atmosphere of workplace and in the end pollutes the environment. The grinding methods using the compressed cold air and mist are the cooling methods to substitute conventional coolant. They can decrease the environmental pollution through not using coolant any more or minimizing it. In this study, the cooling effects of grinding methods using the compressed cold air and mist have been investigated. The grinding system equipped with the water bathe and mist spray nozzle was developed. The energy partition to workpiece through measuring the temperature on the workpiece surface was calculated. The surface integrity of workpiece and thermal damage like the deformed layer were analyzed.

An optical fiber probe system for measuring the local void fraction in the air-water two-phase flow was developed with a 1550 nm light source. Air was injected through a nozzle placed in the center of the bottom wall of a water-filled cylindrical tank. The optical fiber probe having a diameter of $125{\mu}m$ was sufficiently thin to resolve the air-water interface of the bubbly flows. To verify the performance of the optical fiber probe, the synchronized high speed visualization study using a high speed camera was carried out. Comparison between the optical signals and the instantaneous bubble diffraction images confirms that the optical fiber probe is very accurate to measure the void fraction in two-phase flows. The estimated bubble diameter and the rising velocity by the optical fiber probe have 1% and 5% of accuracy, respectively.
