The aim of this experimental study was to analyze the effect of the shape parameters and chamber pressure of a land-based oscillating water column (OWC) in regular incident waves. The magnitude of the free surface elevations inside the chamber was measured in a two-dimensional wave tank for various chamber skirt drafts and bottom slope angles. The surface elevations were also measured under both open chamber and partially open chamber conditions. From these measurements, the optimum shape of the OWC device could be predicted for the maximum wave energy conversion efficiency. It was found that the resonance frequency of the OWC system associated with incident waves moved toward the long wave region with increments of the draft of the chamber skirt and bottom slope. The behavior of the free surface elevation inside the chamber was also found to be dependent on the chamber pressure.

Hydrodynamic analysis of a surface-piercing body with an open chamber was performed with incident regular waves and forced-heaving body motions. The floating body was simulated in the time domain using a 2D fully nonlinear numerical wave tank (NWT) technique based on potential theory. This paper focuses on the hydrodynamic behavior of the free surfaces inside the chamber for various input conditions, including a two-input system: both incident wave profiles and forced body velocities were implemented in order to calculate the maximum surface elevations for the respective inputs and evaluate their interactions. An appropriate equivalent linear or quadratic viscous damping coefficient, which was selected from experimental data, was employed on the free surface boundary inside the chamber to account for the viscous energy loss on the system. Then a comprehensive parametric study was performed to investigate the nonlinear behavior of the wave-body interaction.

An experimental study on the hydrodynamic performance of a backward bent duct buoy (BBDB) was performed in a 2D wave tank. The BBDB is one of the promising oscillating water column (OWC) types of floating wave energy converters. Two different corner-shaped BBDBs (sharp-corner and round-corner) were used to measure the maximum chamber surface elevations and body motions for various incident wave conditions, and their hydrodynamic characteristics were compared. In order to investigate the effect of the pneumatic pressure inside the chamber, the heave and pitch angle interacted with elevations were compared for both open chamber and partially open chamber BBDBs. From the comparison study, the deviation in the chamber surface elevations between the two shapes of BBDBs was found to be significant near the resonance period, which may be explained by viscous energy loss. It was also found that the pneumatic pressure noticeably affected the chamber surface elevation and body motions.

In this study, numerical analysis and experiments were performed to analyze the viscous damping effect according to the shape of the chamber skirt of the breakwater-linked inclined oscillating water column wave energy converter. Experiments were conducted using a two-dimensional mini wave tank and verified by comparing the results of a computational fluid dynamics numerical analysis. Pointed and rounded skirts were modeled to compare the effect of viscous damping when incident waves enter the chamber, and the difference in the displacement of the water surface in the chamber was compared according to the wave period for the two skirt shapes. The wave elevation in the chamber in the rounded-skirt condition was larger than the pointed-skirt condition in all wave periods, which was approximately 47% greater at 0.9 s of the incident wave period. Therefore, extracting the maximum energy through the optimal orifice is possible while minimizing the energy attenuation in the rounded-skirt condition.

A floating Oscillating Water Column (OWC) wave energy converter, a Backward Bent Duct Buoy (BBDB), was simulated using a state-of-the-art, two-dimensional, fully-nonlinear Numerical Wave Tank (NWT) technique. The hydrodynamic performance of the floating OWC device was evaluated in the time domain. The acceleration potential method, with a full-updated kernel matrix calculation associated with a mode decomposition scheme, was implemented to obtain accurate estimates of the hydrodynamic force and displacement of a freely floating BBDB. The developed NWT was based on the potential theory and the boundary element method with constant panels on the boundaries. The mixed Eulerian-Lagrangian (MEL) approach was employed to capture the nonlinear free surfaces inside the chamber that interacted with a pneumatic pressure, induced by the time-varying airflow velocity at the air duct. A special viscous damping was applied to the chamber free surface to represent the viscous energy loss due to the BBDB's shape and motions. The viscous damping coefficient was properly selected using a comparison of the experimental data. The calculated surface elevation, inside and outside the chamber, with a tuned viscous damping correlated reasonably well with the experimental data for various incident wave conditions. The conservation of the total wave energy in the computational domain was confirmed over the entire range of wave frequencies.

Most of modem aerospace gas turbines must be operated at a gas temperature which is several hundreds of degrees higher than the melting temperatures of the materials used in their construction. Complicated cooling schemes need to be employed in the combustor walls and in the high pressure turbine stages. Internal passages are cast or machined into the hot sections of aero-gas turbine engines and air from the compressor is used for cooling. In many cases, the cooling system is engineered to utilize jets of high velocity air, which impinge on the internal surfaces of the components. They are categorized as 'Impinging Cooling Method' and 'Vortex Cooling Method'.

Performance analysis has been carried out on a high side scroll compressor that had a fixed scroll equipped with a circular oil groove on its thrust surface. Oil was supplied to the oil groove through an intermittent opening from a high pressure oil reservoir formed inside the orbiting scroll hub. Oil in the groove was then delivered to both suction and back pressure chambers by pressure differentials and viscous pumping action of the orbiting scroll base plate. Mathematical modeling of this oil groove system was incorporated into a main compressor performance simulation program for an optimum oil groove design. The study findings were as follows. Pressure in the oil groove can be controlled by changing its configuration and the oil passage area. With an enlarged oil passage, the pressure in the oil groove heightens due to an increased flow rate, but the pressure elevation in the back pressure chamber is small, resulting in reduced friction loss at the thrust surface between the two scrolls. On the other hand, by increasing the oil passage area, the oil content in the refrigerant flow increases. Considering all these factors, the energy efficiency ratio could be improved by about 3.6% under the ARI condition by an optimal oil groove design.

본 실험은 단기간 ABA처리가 토마토 묘의 생장과 증산율, 기공 저항성 및 건조 내성에 미치는 영향을 검토하기 위하여 수행되었다. 실험은 25일간 플러그 트레이에서 육묘한 토마토 묘를 간이 수경재배 키트에 이식하여 양액 육묘하면서 ABA처리 효과와 건조 내성을 검토하였다. 배양액에 ABA를 0.5, 1, 2, 및 $3mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$의 농도로 첨가한 4개의 처리구와 무처리구를 설계하여 5일과 10일간 양액육묘한 뒤 묘소질, 엽온, 증산율, 기공확산 저항성을 측정하였다. 건조 내성을 검토하기 위한 수분 스트레스 처리는 PEG 8,000을 이용하여 -5bar로 조정한 고삼투압 용액에 ABA처리 직후의 묘를 이식한 뒤, 묘의 위조 정도를 조사하였다. 저농도(0.5와 $1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$)의 ABA처리구에서 묘소질은 경경을 제외하고 대부분의 생육에서 통계적 유의차는 나타나지 않았으나, 2와 $3mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$의 농도에서는 지상부의 생장이 억제되었다. 근권부의 생장은 $1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$의 농도처리에서만 뿌리의 건물중과 생체중, 전표면적, 근장, 근경, root tip수 모두가 유의적으로 증가하였으며, 그 외의 처리농도에서는 일부의 생육지표를 제외하고는 유의적 차이가 나타나지 않았다. ABA처리 농도가 증가함에 따라 기공확산 저항성은 증가하고 증산율은 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 또, ABA처리는 묘의 건조 내성을 증가시켜 ABA가 첨가된 배양액에서 5일 또는 10일간 육묘한 묘를 -5bar 용액에 치상하였을 경우 대조구는 치상후 10시간 후부터 묘의 위조가 시작되어 20시간 후에는 모든 개체가 위조하였으나, ABA처리구는 치상 30시간 후부터 위조가 시작되어 50시간이 경과해서야 모든 개체가 위조되었다. 또, 수분 스트레스처리로 위조된 묘를 재관수하였을 경우 ABA 0.5와 $1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$처리구는 100%, 그 이상 농도 처리구에서도 50%이상 회복되었으나, 무처리구의 경우는 전개체가 고사하였다. 이상의 결과 토마토 육묘과정에서 저농도의 ABA처리를 통한 근권부의 생장 촉진과 건조 내성 증진 가능성이 시사되었으나, 상업적 활용을 위해서는 추가적인 검토가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.
