Cold acoustic tests have been performed to elucidate the effect of baffle gaps on the optimal damping characteristics in a liquid rocket combustor where coaxial injectors are installed. For several axial baffle lengths, an optimal acoustic damping capacitance has been achieved in a certain gap range. Cold acoustic tests for simulating fluid viscosity by changing the pressure in a model chamber have been done to study the main mechanism of optimal damping. Experimental data have shown that the optimal gap for high damping capacity exists mainly due to the viscosity near the gap of baffles. Therefore, axial baffle length can be reduced by using the optimal baffle gap, providing a possible solution of thermal cooling problems. Also, these optimum characteristics can be some guidelines for manufacturing and assembling injectors in full-scaled rocket combustors.

Simulating combustion tests have been performed to elucidate the effect of baffle gaps on the optimal damping characteristics in liquid rocket combustors where coaxial injectors are installed. Amplitude of pressure oscillation in model combustion chamber and the combustion stability margin are used to quantify the damping capacitance of baffles. Satisfactory agreement has been achieved with the results of cold acoustic tests. Present results have shown that the optimal gap for high acoustic damping capacity has also the large combustion stability margin in simulating combustion tests. Therefore, the present results can be utilized to determine the baffle length and optimal gap in full-scaled rocket combustors.

The effect of the joint condition of automotive muffler shell and baffle on radiated noise from muffler shell Is studied. Shell vibration characteristics, especially shift In natural frequency and change in of response amplitude, was identified from finite element analysis and modal tests for various joint conditions between shell and baffle. When there is heat expansion and inner pressure from the exhaust 9as in the muffler with elliptical cross section, the shell expands out, and construct gap with baffles. This gap causes more degrees of freedom of shell vibration and natural frequency shift. By welding the muffler shell to the baffles or using a dual shell muffler, the radiated noise problem could be mitigated supplying more a rigid joint and damping, respectively.

In Pressurized Water Reactors, most of the failed fuel rods are often observed at the periphery of the fuel assembly, especially near the core baffle. The rod vibration-induced fretting wear is a significant failure mechanism strongly correlated with the coolant and support conditions. This paper presents a coupled vibration model of double-rod to predict the grid-to-rod fretting (GTRF) wear. A motion-dependent fluid force model is used to simulate the coolant cross flow, the gap constraints with asymmetric stiffness between spring and dimple on the vibration form, and the fretting wear are discussed. The results show the effect of the coupled vibration on the deterioration of wear, providing a sound theoretical explanation of some failure phenomena observed in the previous experiment. Exploratively, we analyze the impact of the baffle jet on the GTRF wear, which indicates that the high-velocity cross-flow will significantly affect the vibration forms while sharply changing the wear behavior.

Gas wiping process of continuously hot-dip galvanized coating on steel strip has noise and coating problems. To improve the qualify of product, characteristics of air flow on the steel surface must be investigated. In this paper, fluid dynamic model of the gas flow is setup and solved numerically using STAR-CD. The effects of edge baffle, distance between steel plane edge and baffle, inlet pressure, and gap between air knife and strip steel surface are investigated, and it is concluded that edge baffle can reduce over-coating and edge built-up.

$CO_2$ emission has been gradually increased due to rising fossil fuel use. A gliding arc plasma scrubber (GAPS) was proposed to destruct $CO_2$. For optimum design of GAPS, a CFD analysis has been conducted in different configuration for the system. The parameters considered included gas injection velocity at the nozzle and gas flow rate to gap between electrodes. The reactor configuration affected velocity fields which caused changes in the mixture fraction and the retention time. The mixing effect of $CO_2$ and supplied gas ($CH_4$ and steam) was enhanced by installing a orifice baffle. This revealed that the orifice baffle is effective in $CO_2$ conversion by positioning the reactants in the gas into the center of plasma discharge.

A liquid rocket thrust chamber should have a high confidence in its combustion performance and combustion stability. Expecially, the injector of which function is spraying and mixing propellants plays an important role in getting the confidence. This study was carried out to evaluate combustion stability of a double swirl coaxial injector by using the model similarity method. Besides, in case of a baffle which was used to improve combustion stability, the length and gap effects of the baffle were investigated.

Helmholtz resonator has been used, especially in intake and exhaust systems of vehicles, due to its good noise reduction characteristics at low frequencies. Many approaches have been developed to predict the acoustic behavior of the resonator with the assumption that there is no leakage from the resonator. However, its behavior may be affected by leakage which may exist in manufacturing processes or on purpose. This study investigates the effect of leakage on the noise reduction characteristics of Helmholtz resonator with two practical examples. One is a resonator with a gap between baffle and housing of the resonator and the other one is a resonator with two drain holes on the baffle. The measured transmission loss shows that the resonance frequencies are considerably shifted to higher frequency due to the leakage. The Boundary Element Method was applied to predict the transmission loss of the Helmholtz resonator with drain holes. The comparison between the measured and predicted transmission loss shows that the acoustic impedance of the holes is essential for accurate predictions of the transmission loss.

우리나라의 speaker제작의 역사는 얼마되지 않을 뿐더러 자급자족의 영역을 못 벗어나고 있다. Weston speaker, 자사내에서 자급자족하고 있는 금성사제 speaker등 완전히 질량의 단계에 못들어가고 있는 실정이다. 그나마 성능면에서도 뒤떨어짐을 면할 수 없는 실정이다 .부속품 예컨데 자철 coil접착제등 거이 매매회사에서 직수입하고 있는 형편인것 같다. 물론 종합공업이 발달해야만 되겠기에 단편적 발달은 기하기 어려울 줄 안다. 그러나 speak의 조립 공정에서 끝마치고 있는 형편이고 보면 한심할 지경이다. 물론 speaker제작이라고 하는 것은 극히 delicacy한 면을 가지고 있다. 즉 효율은 $B^{2}$에 비례하는것은 당연하지만 효율을 높이고저 공기부하의 저항을 크게 할려면 corn의 입경이 크게 되므로 자연적으로 진동계의 질량이 크게되며 또 voice coil의 저항을 적게하자니 coil가 필연적으로 굵게되어 길이가 짧게 될 뿐만아니라 air gap 이 크게되어 자속밀도 B가 적게 되는 상반관계가 있다. Cabinet, baffle, corn, corrugation, speaker system등을 가장 합리적으로 설계할 필요가 있다. 이 실험결과를 보고함으로서 speaker연구에 대한 욕구를 갖고 의욕적인 계기가 되었으면 한다. Voice coil 의 turn수를 바뀌었을때 impedance을 측정하였으며 turn수와 음압level 및 주파수 관계를 알아보았다. 그리하여 중형 speaker의 주파수특성을 알아 설계에 기여하고저 한다.
