This research aims to demonstrate the optimal geometrical design of splayed multiple cross-sectional pin fin heat sinks (SMCSPFHS), which are a type of side-inlet-side-outlet heat sink (SISOHS). The optimiser strength Pareto evolutionary algorithm2 (SPEA2)is employed to explore a set of Pareto optimalsolutions. Objective functions are the fan pumping power and junction temperature. Function evaluations can be accomplished using computational fluid dynamics(CFD) analysis. Design variablesinclude pin cross-sectional areas, the number of fins, fin pitch, thickness of heatsink base, inlet air speed, fin heights, and fin orientations with respect to the base. Design constraints are defined in such a way as to make a heat sink usable and easy to manufacture. The optimum results obtained from SPEA2 are compared with the straight pin fin design results obtained from hybrid population-based incremental learning and differential evolution (PBIL-DE), SPEA2, and an unrestricted population size evolutionary multiobjective optimisation algorithm (UPSEMOA). The results indicate that the splayed pin-fin design using SPEA2 issuperiorto those reported in the literature.

본 연구에서는 국지예보시스템(LDAPS)과 전산유체역학(CFD) 모델을 접합하여, 부산 중구 광복동에 소재한 건물 밀집 지역의 상세 흐름을 조사하였다. 도시 지역 기상에 대한 보다 현실적인 수치 모의를 위해 기상청이 현업으로 운용하는 LDAPS 결과로부터 기상 요소(풍향, 풍속, 온위)를 추출하여 CFD 모델의 초기·경계장으로 사용하였다. LDAPS로부터 추출한 기상 요소(U, V)는 공간 선형 보간법을 이용하여 CFD 모델의 수평·연직 격자에 맞게 내삽하였고, 공간 선형 보간법을 이용해 내삽한 온위는 CFD 모델의 각 격자점에서 온도로 변환된다. 본 연구에서는 건물 옥상에서 측정한 3차원 초음파 풍향·풍속계에서 측정한 풍속과 풍향을 이용하여 수치 모의 결과를 검증하였다. 대상 기간(2020년 6월 22일) 동안 측정 지점(PKNU-SONIC)에서는 바람이 약하게 나타났고, 새벽 시간에는 북동풍과 북서풍이 불었으며, 주간에는 주로 남동풍이 불었다. LDAPS-CFD 접합 모델은 측정 풍향과 풍속을 유사하게 수치 모의하였다. 07시에는 동북동쪽에서 유입되는 흐름이 지형과 건물에 의해 변화하였고, PKNU-SONIC 지점에서 수치 모의된 풍향(동남동풍)은 측정 풍향과 유사하다. 19시에는 남동쪽에서 유입되는 흐름이 PKNU-SONIC 지점까지 유입되어 측정 풍향과 유사하게 모의하였다.

침전지는 수처리 공정에서 중요한 조작 중 하나이며, 침전지내에서는 응집과 침전이 일어남에 따라 입자의 크기분포가 변하는 복잡한 현상이 발생한다. 따라서 침전지의 효율적인 설계나 운영을 위해서는 이러한 현상에 대해 이해해야만 하며, 침전효율의 극대화를 위한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 침전지내의 흐름을 모의하기 위하여 범용 CFD 프로그램인 FLUENT를 이용하였으며, 침전효율을 평가하기 위하여 FLUENT에서 제공되는 입자추적기법을 사용하였다. 또한 침전지의 형상을 지나치게 단순화시키는 기존의 연구와는 달리 본 연구에서는 실제 현장에서 사용되는 규모와 침전지내 인자들 (유입부 정류벽, 유출부 트라프 등)이 수치모의에 최대한 반영되었으며, 현장실험의 결과를 바탕으로 민감도 분석을 수행해 수치모의에 사용되는 매개 변수들을 보정하였다. 민감도 분석 결과 입자의 직경이 입자의 밀도에 비해서 민감도가 큰 것으로 나타났고, 침전효율이 실헐결과와 가장 잘 일치할 때의 직경값을 결정해본 결과 입자의 직경값이 26.5 $\mu\textrm{m}$로 나타났다.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze two-phase flows of the hydrogen recirculation system. Two-phase flow modeling is one of the great challenges in the classical sciences. As with most problems in engineering, the interest in two-phase flow is due to its extreme importance in various industrial applications. In hydrogen recirculation systems of fuel cell, the changes in pressure and temperature affect the phase change of mixture. Therefore, two-phase flow analysis of the hydrogen recirculation system is very important. Two-phase computation fluid dynamics (CFD) calculations, using a commercial CFD package FLUENT 6.2, were employed to calculate the gas-liquid flow. A two-phase flow calculation was conducted to solve continuity, momentum, energy equation for each phase. Then, the mass transfer between water vapor and liquid water was calculated. Through an experiment to measure production of liquid water with change of pressure, the analysis model was verified. The predictions of rate of condensed liquid water with change of pressure were within an average error of about 5%. A comparison of experimental and computed data was found to be in good agreement. The variations of performance, properties, mass fraction and two-phase flow characteristic of mixture with resepct to the fuel cell power were investigated.

Cellular automata는 천체물리, 사회현상, 화재 확산 및 피난 등 많은 분야의 시뮬레이션에 활용되고 있다. 본 연구는 빈번히 발생하고 있는 화학사고에 대비한, 위험성평가 및 비상대응계획 작성시 요구되는 화학물질 확산 시뮬레이션을 위한 보급용 모델을 cellular automata를 기반으로 개발하였다. 상세한 플랜트 안전설계용과는 달리, 실시간 사고대응을 위해선 빠른 계산과 더불어 피해영역 분포의 불확실성을 줄이기 위한 반복 계산이 요구된다. EPA ALOHA, 화학물질안전원 KORA 등이 있지만, 지속적인 모델과 코드의 보완이 가능하고, 중소기업용의 무료 S/W개발에 본 연구의 차별성이 있다. 계산시간이 많이 요구되는 full-scale CFD에 비해 상대적인 정확도의 손실은 감수하고, 특히 일반 사용자의 편리성을 도모하였다. 기상청 기상정보 연계를 비롯해, Python open-source 라이브러리들을 활용해, 기능 확장 및 지속적인 update가 가능하며, 사용자는 해당 플랜트의 지형도와 사용 물질의 입력만으로 쉽게 결과를 얻을 수 있다. Full-scale CFD 시뮬레이션과 대비해 정확도를 확인하였으며, 빠른 계산을 위해 GPU를 활용하는 open source software로 배포될 예정이다.

The design and development procedures of SF6 gas circuit breakers are still largely based on trial and error through testing although the development costs go higher every year. The computation cannot cover the testing satisfactorily because all the real processes arc not taken into account. But the knowledge of the arc behavior and the prediction of thermal plasmas inside SF6 interrupters by numerical simulations are more useful than those by experiments due to the difficulties to obtain physical quantities experimentally and the reduction of computational costs in recent years. In this paper, in order to get further information into the interruption process of a SF6 self-blast interrupter, which is based on the combination of thermal expansion and arc rotation, gas flow simulations with a CFD-arc modeling are performed during the whole switching process such as high-current period, pre-current zero period, and current-zero period. Through the complete work, the temperature of residual arcs as well as the breakdown index after current zero should be a good criterion to predict the dielectric capability of interrupters.

Experimental and computational studies were performed to determine the effects of different blade designs on a flow pattern inside a double-spindle counter rotating mower deck. In the experimental study, two different blade models were tested by measuring air velocities using a forward-scatter LDV system. The velocity measurements were taken at several different azimuth and axial sections inside the deck. The measured velocity distributions clarified the air flow pattern caused by the rotating blades and demonstrated the effects of deck and blade designs. A high-speed video camera and a sound level meter were used for flow visualization and noise level measurement. In the computational works, two-dimensional blade shapes at several arbitrary radial sections have been selected for flow computations around the blade model. For three-dimensional computation applied a non-inertia coordinate system, a flow field around the entire three-dimensional blade shape is used to evaluate flow patterns in order to take radial flow interactions into account. The computational results were compared with the experimental results.

Recently high speed mixer, which is mixing, grinding, dispersion for liquid-liquid material, has been widely used several industries such as food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, electronic material. This high speed mixer has a core element part called particle separation device. Particle separation device, which makes mixed liquid and liquid material using shear forces from a rotor and a stator, is a decisive factor in the distributed parts. In this study, we examined the velocity distribution of the two models of particle separation device using computation fluid dynamics, so that we were able to see the difference of the velocity distribution according to the shape. Also, by experiment, we observed that the use of rotor-screen type is deemed more suitable in case of accurately considering the effect of improving of the dispersibility through the circulation of the future.

Since the characteristics of combustion and pollutant in Diesel engines were mainly effected by the characteristics of in-cylinder gas flow and fuel spray, an understanding of those was essential to the design of the D.I. Diesel engines. The improvement of volumetric efficiency of air charging into combustion chamber is a primary requirement to obtain better mean effective pressure of an engine. Since parameters such as the air resistances in intake and exhaust flow passages, valve lift and valve shape influence greatly to the volumetric efficiency, it is very important to investigate the flow characteristics of intake and exhaust port which develops air motion in the combustion chamber. In this study, two approach methods were used for design intake and exhaust port; experiment and computation which were made by using steady flow test rig and commercial CFD code. This paper presents the results of an experimental and analytical investigation of steady flow through the prototype cylinder head ports and valves of the HHI's H21/32 HIMSEN Engine.

Several tidal current power plants are being planned and constructed in Korea utilizing the strong tidal currents along the west and south coasts. A tidal current reaches 9.7 m on the west coast; there are few potential regions for tidal current power generation. The construction of a dam to store water can prevent the circulation of water, causing a great environmental impact on the coast and estuary. The tidal barrage could produce a large amount of power, but it should be carefully considered. The purpose of developing renewable energies is to minimize the environmental impact and to maximize the utilization of clean energy. To produce a great quantity of power, tidal current farms require the placement of numerous units in the ocean. The power generation is very dependent on the size of the rotor and the incoming flow velocity. Also, the interactions between devices contribute greatly to the production of power. The efficiency of a power farm is estimated to determine the production rate. This paper introduces 3 D interaction problems between rotating rotors, considering the axial, transverse, and diagonal distances between horizontal axis tidal current devices.
