Simplified model of slide-fed curtain coating flow has been developed and tested in this study. It rests on the sheet profile equations for curtain thickness in curtain flow and its trajectory derived by the integral momentum balance approach of Higgins and Scriven (1979) and Kistler (1983). It also draws on the film profile equation of film thickness variation in flow down a slide. The equations have been solved in finite difference approximation by Newton iteration with continuation. The results show that how inertia (Rey­nolds number), surface tension (capillary number), inclination angle of the slide, and air pressure difference across the curtain affect sheet trajectory and thickness profile. It has been revealed that approximate models can be useful to easily analyze coating flow dynamics without complex computations, giving qualitative agreement with full theory and with experiment.

Air Wiping technique is widely used because of easy and efficient coating control in present CGL. Coaring weight is decided by nozzle header pressure, strip line speed and distance between strip and nozzle. Coating defects are results from unbalance of these factors and coating equipment calibration inaccuracy. Therefore, this study is mainly dealing with the cause of coating defects such as edge overcoating and coating deviation. The coptimum working condition is suggested by formulated coating model using collected working data. We developed two demension analysis program for air flow in nozzle and calculated dynamic pressure and air velocity with this program. The productivity and coating guality are improved by applying the result of this reserach.

아연말 코팅은 친환경성 및 고성능으로 인하여 널리 사용되고 있다. 일반적으로 코팅온도가 코팅층 두께 및 코팅 품질을 결정하는 주요한 요소이며 아연말 코팅의 경우에도 코팅 룸 내 균일하며 적절한 코팅온도가 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 일반적으로 사용하는 자연대류 상태에서의 아연말 스프레이 코팅 룸의 온도 분포를 해석하기 위해 룸 내부의 공기 유동을 포함하는 열 유동 전산 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 3차원 CAD 프로그램인 SolidWorks를 이용하여 스프레이 코팅 룸 전체와 예열실과 건조실을 모두 고려한 모델링을 수행하였으며 ANSYS의 FLUENT 프로그램을 이용하여 열 유동연성 해석을 수행하였다. 해석 결과 스프레이 코팅 룸에서의 온도 분포 특성을 파악할 수 있었으며, 현재의 상태로는 목표 온도 값인 $25^{\circ}C$에 미달하고 있었음을 알 수 있었다. 이에 두 가지 다른 경계조건 (히터를 추가하는 방법과 현재 상태에서 Open 부분을 닫는 방법) 에 대해 열 유동 시뮬레이션을 수행하였으며, 시뮬레이션 결과 히터를 추가하기보다는 Open된 부분을 닫는 방법이 더 좋은 결과를 나타내었다.

Slot coating has been wide spread in photo-resist coating on the glass for liquid crystal display. Die in slot coater consists of manifold and land. Material comes in inlet of the die and flow into the manifold and then flow out through the land. The coating thickness variations along the die length depend upon inside of die design such as manifold and die land. However the coating thickness variations along the moving direction(coating direction) of the coater depend upon the operational conditions of coater as well as die lip design. The coating behaviors including atmospheric air have been investigated in this study. Die geometries considered in this study were nozzle gap and length of the die lip. Coating gap and coating speed were the variables fur coating operational conditions. When the nozzle gap and length of die lip increased climbing effect of PR on the downstream die lip was reduced. Subsequently uniformity of coating thickness improved. Uniformity of coating thickness also enhanced as coating gap and coater speed increased. The uniformity of coating gap was related to the velocity vector distributions on the coating surface.

The protective double layer polymer coatings on silica optical fibers are realized by wet-on-wet liquid coating process and they play an important role in final quality of mass produced optical fibers. This numerical study aims to analyze the effects of secondary coating die design parameters by employing two dimensional axisymmetric model of coating cup and coating die geometry and computational fluid dynamics simulations which include temperature dependent viscosity of polymer coating liquids and viscous dissipation heating. Under high speed fiber drawing conditions and pressurized coating liquid supply, the effects of converging die angle are investigated in order to appreciate the change of coating liquid flow patterns such as flow recirculation zone near coating die as well as primary and secondary coating layer thicknesses. The auxiliary coating die to converging coating die is also tested and the results find that this concept is advantageous in achieving stable double layer coatings on silica glass fiber.

Conjugate heat analysis on a high pressure turbine stage including secondary flow paths has been carried out. The secondary flow paths were designed to be located in front of the nozzle and between the nozzle and rotor domains. Thermal boundary conditions such as empirical based temperature or heat transfer coefficient were specified at nozzle and rotor solid domains. To create heat transfer interface between the nozzle solid domain and the rotor fluid domain, frozen rotor with automatic pitch control was used assuming that there is little temperature variation along the circumferential direction at the nozzle solid and rotor fluid domain interface. The simulation results showed that secondary flow injected from the secondary flow path not only prevents main flow from penetrating into the secondary flow path, but also effectively cools down the nozzle and rotor surfaces. Also thermal barrier coating with different thickness was numerically implemented on the nozzle surface. The thermal barrier coating further reduces temperature gradient over the entire nozzle surface as well as the overall temperature level.

An inert gas atomized NiTiZrSiSn bulk metallic glass feedstock was sprayed onto the copper plate using vacuum plasma spraying process. In order to change the in-flight particle energy, that is, thermal energy, the hydrogen gas flow rate in plasma gas mixture was increased at the constant flow rate of argon gas. Coating and single pass spraying bead were produced with the least feeding rate. Regardless of the plasma gas composition, fully melted through unmelted particle could be observed on the overlay coating. However, the frequency of the unmelted particle number density was increased with the decrease of the hydrogen gas flow rate. The amorphous phase fraction within coating was also affected by the number density of the unmelted particle.

아연말 코팅은 친환경성 및 고성능으로 인하여 널리 사용되고 있다. 일반적으로 코팅온도가 코팅층 두께 및 코팅품질을 결정하는 주요한 요소이므로 아연말 코팅의 경우에도 최적의 코팅온도가 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 아연말 스프레이 코팅 룸의 온도분포를 해석하기 위해 룸 내부의 공기유동을 포함하는 열 유동 전산 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 3차원 CAD 프로그램인 SolidWorks를 이용하여 스프레이 코팅 룸 전체와 예열실과 건조실을 모두 고려한 모델링을 수행하였으며 Flow Simulation 프로그램을 이용하여 열 유동 해석을 수행하였다. 해석된 결과는 열화상카메라를 이용한 실험으로 검증하였다. 해석결과 제1스프레이실과 제2스프레이실의 온도분포 특성을 파악할 수 있었으며, 현재의 상태로는 목표 온도 값인 $25^{\circ}C$에 미달하고 있었음을 알 수 있었다. 단순히 히터를 추가하는 방법 대신, 현재 조건에서 스프레이실의 온도를 높이는 방안으로 배기팬을 사용하지 않는 경우에 대해 시뮬레이션을 수행하였으며, 그 결과 제1스프레이실의 온도가 $6.2^{\circ}C$, 제2스프레이실의 온도가 $5.8^{\circ}C$ 상승하였다. 본 연구 내용은 향후 스프레이 코팅 룸의 성능향상을 위한 설계에 이용될 수 있다.

An electroplating on the lead frame fabricated from domestic copper plate was studied experimentally. In this study, nickel was plated on the thin copper lead frame and silver layer was coated on the nickel film in the cyanide electrolyte. The effect of process variables such as current density, plating time, coating thickness and flow rate of electrolytic solution on the properties of coating was investigated. Some samples on each step were fabricated during electroplating. The results obtained from polarization measurement, observation of SEM photograph, adhesion test of coating and microhardness test are as follows. On silver plating, polarization resistance of potentiostatic cathodic polarization curve is reduced as the flow rate of Ag electrolytic solution increases. And above resistance is also reduced when the minor chemicals of sodium cyanide and sodium carbonate are added in potassium silver cyanide bath. The reduced polarization resistance makes silver deposition on the cathode easy. An increase in the current density and the coating thickness causes the particle size of deposit to coarsen, and consequently the Knoop microhardness of the coating decreases. On selective plating an increase in the flow rate of plating solution lead to do high speed plating with high current density. In this case, the surface morphology of deposit is of fine microstructure with high Knoop hardness. An increasing trend of the adhesion of coating was shown with increasing the current density and flow rate of electrolytic solution.

Ni-5%Al alloy powder is widely used as the bond coating powder to improve the adhesive strength between the substrate and coating. The important properties in the bond coating are the deposition efficiency and surface roughness. In this study, it was tried to optimize the plasma spray parameters to maximize the deposition efficiency and surface roughness. In the first step, spray current and hydrogen gas flow rate were optimized in order to increase the deposition efficiency. In the next step, the seven plasma spray variables were selected and optimized to improve both the deposition efficiency and surface roughness using the Taguchi experimental method. By these optimization, the deposition efficiency was improved from about 10 % at the frist time to 51.2 % by the optimization of spray current and hydrogen gas flow rate and finally to 65.2 % by the Taguchi experimental method. The average surface roughness was increased from about $12.9\mu\textrm{m}$ to $15.4\mu\textrm{m}$.
