Rotating stall in vaneless diffusers of centrifugal compressor occurs in the diffuser wall due to flow separation at large inlet flow angle. For this reason, the critical inlet flow angles are suggested by several researchers. Beyond this critical angle, flow separates in the diffuser, and develops into rotating stall. This paper studied this critical flow angle. Rotating stall is measured through eight fast-response pressure transducers which are equally spaced around the circumference at the inlet and exit of a vaneless diffuser. Experiments are done from 20000rpm to 60000rpm for the diffuser stall. Two-cell structure which rotates at $6{\~}l0{\%}$ of impeller speed is fully developed at $20000{\~}40000rpm$, and three-cell structure which rotates at $7{\~}9{\%}$ of impeller speed is fully developed at $50000{\~}60000rpm$. This paper shows that the critical inlet flow angle is not constant but related with tip speed of impeller. As tip speed increases, so does the critical inlet flow angle.

A location determining method is proposed for critical sliding surface in the stability analysis of the filling materials in karst caves. First, a preliminary location of the sliding surface is determined based on simulation results which includes displacement contour and plastic zone. The sliding surface will locate on the bottom contact interface when the friction angle is relative small. However, a weakened contact interface always becomes the critical sliding surface no matter what the friction angle is. Then when the friction angle becomes larger, the critical sliding surface inside fillings can be determined by a parabola, the coefficient of which increases linearly with the friction angle under the same cohesion. Finally, the critical sliding surface approximately remains unchanged with friction angle. The influence of cohesion is similar to that of friction angle. Although affected by shape, size or position of the karst cave, the critical sliding surface mainly depends on both friction angle and cohesion. Thus, this method is always useful in determining the critical sliding surface.

Compressible gas flow through a convergent-divergent nozzle is choked at the nozzle throat under a certain critical pressure ratio, and then being no longer dependent on the pressure change in the downstream flow field. In practical, the flow field at the divergent part of the critical nozzle can affect the effective critical pressure ratio. In order to investigate details of flow field through a critical nozzle, the present study solves the axisymmetric, compressible, Wavier-Stokes equations. The diameter of the nozzle throat is D=8.26mm and the half angle of the diffuser is changed between $2^{\circ}\;and\;10^{\circ}$ Computational results are compared with the previous experimental ones. The results obtained show that the divergence angle is significantly influences the critical pressure ratio and the present computations predict the experimented discharge coefficient and critical pressure ratio with a good accuracy. It is also found that a nozzle with the half angle of $4^{\circ}$ nearly predicts the theoretical critical pressure ratio.

2G HTS tapes are widely used for various electric machines. In addition, stacked or parallel connected HTS tapes are essentially used to raise transport current level for large capacity electric machines. Therefore, critical current characteristic of stacked tapes need to be studied. Recently developed 2G HTS tapes are fabricated with various defects doping so that tapes possess pinning center to improve the critical current characteristic. During this process, the critical current is determined minimum value in not perpendicular magnetic field but a specific magnetic field angle according to the reported research. However, the effects of magnetic field angle to critical current of multi-stacked 2G HTS tapes have not been examined. In this paper, field coil which is a race-track coil wound by using an HTS tape with iron-core was fabricated to apply angle adjustable magnetic field to the 2G HTS tape samples. We measured critical current of single and multi-stacked two tapes that have different characteristic depending on various magnetic field angle and magnitude in liquid nitrogen environment. Furthermore, results of single and multi-stacked tapes were compared and analyzed.

A critical angle method was used to measure the index of refraction of a solid medium when an air gap between the prism and the medium is present. The gap effect was analyzed both numerically and experimentally. Since the total internal reflection is severely disturbed by the large gap, determination of the critical angle and the resulting refractive index becomes ambiguous and inaccurate. By using an index matching fluid, we could determine the index of refraction with an uncertainty of ${\pm}2{\times}1^{-3}$ even when the gap is as large as 1 ${\mu}m$.

Pool boiling heat transfer is widely applied in nuclear engineering fields. The influence of heating surface orientation on the pool boiling heat transfer has received extensive attention. In this study, the heating surface with different roughness was adopted to conduct pool boiling experiments at different inclination angles. Based on the boiling curves and bubble images, the effects of inclination angle on the pool boiling heat transfer and critical heat flux were analyzed. When the inclination angle was bigger than 90°, the bubble size increased with the increase of inclination angle. Both the bubble departure frequency and critical heat flux decreased as the inclination angle increased. The existing theoretical models about pool boiling heat transfer and critical heat flux were compared. From the perspective of bubble agitation model and Hot/Dry spot model, the experimental phenomena could be explained reasonably. The enlargement of bubble not only could enhance the agitation of nearby liquid but also would cause the bubble to stay longer on the heating surface. Consequently, the effect of inclination angle on the pool boiling heat transfer was not conspicuous. With the increase of inclination angle, the rewetting of heating surface became much more difficult. It has negative effect on the critical heat flux. This work provides experimental data basis for heat transfer and CHF performance of pool boiling.

A bimetallic chip made of gold and silver was investigated in intensity interrogation mode to confirm enhancement of the SPR sensor resolution. Both reflectance curves of the bimetallic chip and the conventional gold chip was acquired and compared. The line width of the reflectance curve of the bimetallic chip was narrower than that of the conventional Au chip, resulting in steeper tangential slope. The reflectance was monitored at the angle related to the steepest tangential slope. The change in reflectance of the bimetallic chip was larger than that of the Au chip. The critical angle was analyzed by differentiating the reflectance with respect to incident angle twice. Acquiring the critical angle regarding to the sample informs the refractive index of the sample. Using various concentration of Bovine Serum Albumin, we confirmed that refractive index was linearly related to variation of reflectance of the bimetallic chip.

수정(quartz)과 다이아몬드(diamond)의 임계각을 $sin{\theta}=r_2/r_1$(r = 굴절률, $r_1$ > $r_2$)의 식에 의해 계산한 결과 수정(R.I. ${\fallingdotseq}$ 1.553)은 $40.09^{\circ}$, 다이아몬드(R.I. = 2.417)는 $24.26^{\circ}$로 계산되었다. 계산된 임계각에 따른 각각의 보석 내부의 빛의 경로를 고찰한 결과 수정과 다이아몬드의 휘광성은 각각 20.33%와 55.07%였다. 임계각과 관련된 이론을 팬시 형 브릴리언트 컷으로 연마된 보석내부에서의 빛의 경로에 적용시킴으로써 보타이(bow-tie) 현상의 원인을 규명하였다. 또한 수정과 커런덤을 굴절계로 굴절률 측정 시 헤미실린더에서의 임계각을 계산한 결과 각각 $59.1^{\circ}$와 $77.9^{\circ}$로 계산되었다.

관망 내 배관의 간섭 거동에 따른 지하 매설 배관의 영향선 분석을 위하여 실제 환경에 부합 하도록 지하의 상부와 하부에 각각 하수관거와 가스관을 매설하여 유한요소모델을 구현하였으며, 두 배관의 교차 정도에 따라 하부 가스 배관의 영향선을 분석하였다. 하수관거와 가스관은 각각 1.0m와 3.39m의 매설심도를 가지며, 두 배관이 이루는 교차각은 $0{\sim}90^{\circ}$에 대하여 해석을 실시하였다. 본 연구에서는 Ring Deflection과 Bending Stress의 결과로부터, 교차각에 따른 영향선을 분석하였으며, 그 결과 두 배관이 이루는 교차각과 하부 배관의 영향선은 일치함을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 배관의 간섭 거동에 따른 하부 배관의 영향선은 두 배관의 교차각과 깊은 관계가 있다고 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 제주해사에 대한 일련의 삼축압축시험을 수행하여 파쇄성이 큰 제주 탄산염 모래의 한계상태정수를 결정하였다. 제주해사는 입자의 모난 정도가 크고 입자표면과 내부에 다수의 공극이 발달되어 전형적인 탄산염 모래의 특성을 보인다. 제주해사는 큰 최대, 최소 간극비와 큰 압축성 때문에 전단 시 압축거동이 지배적이었다. 구속압이 증가할수록 입자가 파쇄되어 제주해사의 첨두마찰각이 다소 감소하였으나, 일반적인 규산염 모래의 마찰각보다는 다소 큰 것이 관찰되었다. 제주해사의 한계상태 마찰각은 평균유효응력이 증가할수록 점차 감소하였으나, 시료의 간극비가 제주해사의 한계상태에 미치는 영향은 미미하였다. 제주해사의 한계상태 정수는 여타의 탄산염 모래와 유사하였으나, 일반적인 규산염 모래보다는 매우 크게 결정되었다.
