There are two types of vacuum die casting, one is known as the chill block method, and the other is the valve block method. Efficiency of the valve block method is better than the chill block method. However purchasing and maintaining cost of the former one is very high, the latter method is popular in many small and medium die casting shops. Simple evacuation system using chill vent was prepared to investigate the effect of the air pressure, hose length and chill vent type on the pressure change in die cavity in this study. The rate of evacuation was influenced by the evacuation method, chill vent condition and hose length. Evacuation time became longer and vacuum level lower when evacuating cavity via chill vent. It took a longer time to evacuate the cavity when a longer hose was used. Vacuum level in the cavity also decreased with increase in hose length.

The flashing reduces the part quality and the productivity of the molding process. We developed a contact pressure sensor to detect the flashing immediately. The performance of the sensor was analyzed in a simple 2D simulation. The sensor was applied to an automotive bumper mold with cavity pressure sensors. It showed sensitive output signal for the mold response by the cavity pressure change. It was confirmed that the flashing at the gate area occurred in the filling stage by the pressure increase due to growth of the melt flow length. The sensor output was correlated with the cavity pressure sensor output.

In this study the numerical analyses on cavity flow in supersonic flow field are conducted. According to the length-to-depth ratio of cavity, the shear layer is changed, consequently influencing on vortex structure inside the cavity. Especially in case the fluid flow outside cavity impinges inside the cavity, the oscillation of the cavity flow is identified. Another result is that though the cavity flow shows the unsteadiness, characteristics of cavity flow can be represented by pressure coefficients converged.

The supersonic combustion experiments are carried out using T3 free-piston shock tunnel. Hydrogen Fuel is injected in the cavity parallel with air(or nitrogen) flow. The equivalence ratios in this study are 0.132 and 0.447. Experimental measurements use OH-PLIF near the cavity and pressures in the combustor. For parallel fuel injection case, direct fuel add into cavity leads to increase of cavity pressure. And Flame exists just near the bottom wall for low equivalent ratio. There is no flame in the cavity because of no mixing in it. Compared to the inclined fuel injection, ignition delay length is longer for low equivalence ratio in both case. OH distribution is not a single line but a repeatable fluctuation flame structure by turbulence. Pressure distributions have nothing to do with the fuel injection position.

일본 JAXA가 보유하고 있는 Blow down 방식의 초음속 풍동 "RAMSYS"를 이용하여 스크램제트 엔진 연소기의 연소시험을 수행하였다. 시험결과로 Cavity가 없는 경우보다 Cavity를 장착한 경우에 연소압력이 높게 나타나는 것으로 확인되었으며 본 연구를 통하여 새롭게 적용한 zigzag cavity는 가장 높은 연소압력을 보여 스크램제트엔진의 안정적인 운영에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

The effects of flow interaction between mainstream and shrouded cavity leakage flow in an axial-flow compressor on aerodynamic losses are experimentally and numerically examined. A fraction of mainstream is Ingested in the downstream cavity and travelled in the shrouded cavity along the direction opposite to the mainstream. This leakage flow is caused by adverse pressure gradient along the blade passage. Then it is entrained through the upstream cavity near mid-pitch and interacts with the mainstream. As a result, the convection flow angle with respect to the blade chord is reduced i.e. underturning This underturned flow results in an increase in size of secondary flow formed near the suction side of the blade as well as its magnitude. Consequently, this causes pronounced increase in overall aerodynamic losses compared to the blading without shrouded cavity, leading to $9\%$ decrease in pressure rise through the single stage of the stators.

Optimal design of a piezoelectric smart structure is studied for cabin noise control. A cubic shaped acoustic cavity with a flat plate which covers one side is taken as the problem. The sensor signal is returned to the actuator through a negative gain. The acoustic cavity is modeled using the modal approach which represents the pressure fields in the cavity as a sum of mode shapes of the cavity with unknown coefficients. By using orthogonality of the mode shapes of the cavity, finite element equation for the structure with the influence of the acoustic cavity is derived. The objective function is the average pressure at a certain region, so-called silent zone, in the cavity and the design variables are the locations and sizes of the piezoelectric actuator and sensor. The optimal design is performed at several frequencies and the results show a remarkable noise reduction.

Cavity expansion and contraction solutions for cylindrical and spherical cavities in unsaturated residual soils are presented in this paper. Varying soil state in the plastic zone is accounted by a numerical approach, wherein an element-by-element discretization of the plastic zone of both expanding and contracting cavities is carried out. Unlike existing methods utilizing self-similarity technique, the solution procedure enables the prediction of entire soil-state at any stage of expansion and subsequent contraction. It is also applicable for both cavity creation and expansion problems. The approach adopts constant contribution of suction to effective stress (constant X^s drainage condition) for analysis. The analysis procedure is validated by interpreting the previously reported pressuremeter test results in lateritic residual soil. The typical cavity expansion and contraction characteristics of unsaturated Indian lateritic soil were then examined using this solution procedure. The effect of initial soil-state on cavity limit pressure, plastic radius, reverse yield pressure, and reverse plastic radius are also presented.

The complex, unsteady, self-sustained pressure oscillations induced by supersonic flow past a rectangular cavity is investigated using numerical simulations. The present numerical study is performed using a parallel, multiblock solver for the two-dimensional, compressible Navier­Stokes equations. Open cavities with length-to-depth (L / D) ratio in the range 0.5 - 3.3 are considered. This paper sheds light on the cavity physics, cavity oscillatory mechanism, and the organisation of vortical structures inside the cavity. The vortex shedding phenomenon, the shear layer impingement event at the aft wall and the movement of the acoustic/compression wave within the cavity are well predicted. The vortical structures· and the source of the acoustic disturbances are found to be located near the aft wall of the cavity. With the increase in the cavity length, strong recompression of the flow near the aft wall leading to a sudden jump in the cavity form drag is observed. The estimated cavity tones are in good agreement with the available semi­empirical relation. Multiple peaks are noticed in deep and long cavities. For the present free­stream Mach number 1.71, it is observed that around L/D=2.0, the cavity oscillatory mechanism changes from the transverse to longitudinal oscillatory mode. The effects of this transition on various fluid dynamics and acoustic properties are also discussed.
