Despite the high cost of memory and CPU time required to resolve the boundary layer, a viscous unstructured grid solver has many advantages over a structured grid solver such as the convenience in automated grid generation and vortex capturing by solution adaption. In present study, an unstructured Cartesian grid solver is developed on the basis of the existing Euler solver, NASCART-GT. Instead of cut-cell approach, immersed boundary approach is applied with ghost cell boundary condition, which can be easily applied to a moving grid solver. The standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ model by Launder and Spalding is employed for the turbulence modeling, and a new wall function approach is devised for the unstructured Cartesian grid solver. Developed approach is validated and the efficiency of the developed boundary condition is tested in 2-D flow field around a flat plate, NACA0012 airfoil, and axisymmetric hemispheroid.

Mobile fish-cage was developed assuming a cage net with an enclosed area, which and estimated the hydrodynamic characteristics of the cage through the model experiment. Flux-shielding plates, installed in the bow were compared with the resistance test carried out by making a hole, bilge keel and stud, and basic block flow rate consisting of the results to a flat surface plate. The experimental results confirmed the improved resistance performance effect of 3~6% in the bilge keel and the stud form. To assess the stability of the fish-cage, evaluation of the stability in accordance with the stability criteria for determining the floating docks had confirmed that it satisfied the static stability performance under operating conditions at sea.

3-dimensional numerical analysis for a rectangular magnetron cathode model is done to predict cooling characteristics of high power sputtering system for ZnO deposition. It includes cooling channel design, heat transfer analysis of a target, bonding layer and backing plate. In order to model erosion profiles of a target, ion current density distribution from 3D Monte Carlo simulation is used to distribute total sputtering power to 5 discrete regions. At 3 kW of sputtering power and cooling water flow of 1 liter/min at $10^{\circ}C$, the maximum surface temperature was $45.8^{\circ}C$ for a flat new target and $156^{\circ}C$ for a target eroded by 1/3 of its thickness, respectively.

A horizontal mantle heat exchanger for a thermosyphon-driven SDHW(solar domestic hot water) was numerically simulated and fluid flow and heat transfer in the annulus of the mantle heat exchanger were quantitatively investigated. The Reynolds number, the location of the inlet, and the gap of the annulus were selected as the important design variables. The effects of the design variables on the heat transfer characteristics were thoroughly studied. Based on the numerical results, a correlation for predicting the heat transfer coefficient was suggested as the conclusion of this study.

A radial pleat module using a polysulfone membrane was developed. The permeation characteristics of the radial pleat module were compared with those of a flat plate module. The average module efficiency of the radial pleat module for the applied pressure range was 82% and was always greater than that of the spiral wound module. For the radial pleat module, in general, as the applied pressure increases, the flux increases and the rejection reduces. The concentration polarization causes the decrease of the flux for the long time operation. But it has been found that the radial pleat module is more efficient for the reduction of the concentration polarization because it has the more effective area per unit volume and can induce the turbulent flow in the module.

In this study, a linearized super-cavitation theory was applied in order to analyse the performance of the 2-dimensional foils. For flat plate with non-thickness, the numerical results correlated very well with Nishiyama's theoretical results for closed cavitation model. For plano-convex section, the numerical results correlated very well with Wade's experimental data. The new lifting surface procedure, developed and validated in this study, is generally considered applicable to the performance analyses of the super-cavitating propeller and trans-cavitating propeller.

In this study, a microcapillary pumped loop (MCPL) that can be used as a cooling device for small electronic and telecommunications equipment has been developed. For thin devices such as an MCPL, securing a vapor flow space is a critical issue for enhancing the thermal performance. In this letter, such enhancement in thermal performance was accomplished by eliminating condensed droplets from the vapor line. By fabricating the grooves in the vapor line to eliminate droplets, a decrease in thermal resistance of about 63.7% was achieved.

A hybrid mesh based finite volume compressible flow code (PolySim) has been developed recently. Instead of the simple average method for the gradients of variables at each face, the volume average is applied for the calculation of the viscous flux. What is more, an improved Green Gauss method for the calculation of the gradient is also presented. These two techniques will improve both the accuracy and robustness of the code. The aerodynamic performance of this in-house cell centered code is examined by several widely-used bench-mark test cases. These cases include flows over flat plate and RAE 2822 etc. The comparisons on results between calculation and experiment are conducted. They show that the code can produce good numerical results which agree well with the corresponding experiment data.

The Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations for turbulent flow around a two-dimensional foil section moving ova. a flat surface (roller plate) is solved. The numerical method utilized the finite-difference schemes in collocated grids and the Baldwin-Lomax model is employed for turbulence closure. Calculations are carried out for three foil sections of different mean-line shape with various height ratio. As a foil approaches the bottom surface, the lift is augmented, while there exist some differences in pitching moment due to mean-line shape. It was found that the S-shaped mean line deteriorates lift characteristics but increases pitching moment to restore the designed height.

Measurements of fluctuating wall pressures were made with a linear array of 16 piezo-electric transducers beneath a fully-developed turbulent boundary layer. The piezoelectric bimorph actuator applied in this experiment has bonding structures of each polarity to make out-of-plane displacements rather than in-plane ones by using piezoelectric effect To specify the boundary layer characteristics at the location where the actuation was applied, the wall friction coefficients and $Re_\theta$ were measured by using the CPM method. The actuating frequency for the bimorph film was determined according to the priori bursting frequency from boundary layer parameters. The reduction of convecting energies in wave-number space was clearly observed at the specified actuating frequencies.
