In this paper we present the aspect of inertial oscillation typically observed in the spin-up of fluids at low Rossby numbers in a circular cylinder. Numerical computations for the quasi three-dimensional equation as well as one-dimensional equation are performed to estimate the predictability of the one-dimensional equation with Ekman pumping/suction models. It is assumed that the discrepancy between the two results may be attributed to the inertial oscillation The detailed analysis to the numerical results reveals that the axial plane is dominated by a comparatively strong oscillatory flows caused by the inertial oscillation. In view of the fact that the time-averaged flow field however agrees to the Taylor-Proudman theorem, it is recommended that further analysis is needed to obtain an improved one-dimensional model like the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equation for turbulent flows.

바람은 동해의 순환에 기여하는 중요한 외력이다. 1.5층 및 2.5층 감쇠중력 모형을 이용하여 동해의 순환을 시뮬레이션하여 대마난류의 분기, 동해안의 동한난류의 분기, 동한만 및 동해북부에서의 반시계 방향성 순환현상을 기존순환모형도와 비교하였다. 상층과 하층의 양상은 동해의 중앙부를 제외하고는 유사하였는데 극전선이 다음과 같이 서로 다른 두양상을 제시한다. 극전선의 북측의 주양상은 대부분의 계절에 발생하는 3개소의 반시계방향 와동이며 이 와동의 내측연안을 따라서 북한류와 리만한류가 흐른다. 극전선의 남측에서 상하 양층의 해류체계는 겨울과 봄의 상층순환을 제외하고는 시계방향 순환이다. 한국과 러시아 연안을 따라 류속구조는 순압적이나 동해중부는 경압적이다. 바람응력의 계절적 변화와 Ekman 수송(suction/pumping)을 시간변화를 갖는 공간적평균과 공간적변화를 갖는 시간적으로 수정된 바람응력을 부여함으로서 조사하였다. 동해의 서측과 북서측 해역의 반시계방향 와동의 형성에 있어서 바람응력 컬(curl)에 의한 국지적인 Ekman suction/pumping이 중요함을 확인하였다

A numerical investigation is made of air flow in a spinner equipment used for cleanning and drying flat display panels. A unique feature of the spinner under question is the placement of a torus plate cover over the rotating plate. The turbulent flow is driven by rotation of a large disk and suction by the exhaust system connected to vacuum chamber. The flow is modelled as an axisymmetric two-dimensional flow and computation is conducted by using the FLUENT package with a version of k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model. The required capacity of the exhaust system is assessed numerically. The usefulness of the cover in controlling air flow circulation is examined. A computational trouble shooting is attempted to resolve the problem of panel rising which occurred in real experiment.

A numerical model is employed for design of a spinner device to dry the 5-th generation LCD glass panel. The turbulent flow in a spinner is driven by rotation of a large disk and suction by the exhaust system connected to vacuum chamber, which is simulated by using the FLUENT package. Based on numerical simulation, the required capacity of exhaust system is assessed. The effects of the presence of cover on the flow characteristics are examined. A computational trouble shooting is attempted to resolve the problem of panel rising which occurred in real experiments.

Variability of sea surface temperature (SST) in the Japan/East Sea (JES) was studied using complex empirical orthogonal function (CEOF) analysis. Two daily data sets were analyzed: (1) New Generation 0.05o-gridded SST from Tohoku University, Japan (July 2002-July 2006), and (2) 0.25o-gridded SST from the Japan Meteorological Agency (October 1993-November 2006). Linkages with wind stress curl were revealed using 6-h 1o-gridded surface zonal and meridional winds from ancillary data of the Sea- WiFS Project, a special National Centers for Environmental Prediction/National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCEP/NCAR) product (1998-2005). SST anomalies (SSTA) were obtained by removing the seasonal signal, estimated as the leading mode of the CEOF decomposition of the original SST. Leading CEOF modes of residual SSTA obtained from both data sets were consistent with each other and were characterized by annual, semiannual, and quasi-biennial time scales estimated with 95% statistical significance. The Semiannual Mode lagged 2 months behind the increased occurrence of the anticyclonic (AC) wind stress curl over the JES. Links to dynamic processes were investigated by numerical simulations using an oceanic model. The suggested dynamic forcings of SSTA are the inflow of subtropical water into the JES through the Korea Strait, divergence in the surface layer induced by Ekman suction, meridional shifts of the Subarctic Front in the western JES, AC eddy formation, and wind-driven strengthening/weakening of large-scale currents. Events of west-east SSTA movement were identified in July-September. The SSTA moved from the northeastern JES towards the continental coast along the path of the westward branch of the Tsushima Current at a speed consistent with the advective scale.
