Pressure ripples yield noise and vibration in hydraulic pipelines, which are inevitably generated by a fluctuation of flow rate in the pump mechanism, and such noise and vibration deteriorate the stability and accuracy of hydraulic systems. To reduce the pressure ripples, accumulator and hydraulic attenuator are normally used. In this study, parallel pipeline with a bent-axis piston pump is introduced to a hydraulic pipe system as a method for reducing the pressure ripples and using the transfer matrix method, the dynamic characteristics of the pipe system are analysed and compared with experimental results. The results show that the phase interference using parallel pipeline with a bent-axis piston pump is effective to reduce the pressure ripples in the hydraulic pipelines.

Many researchers have developed the measurement technique of in-cylinder flow characteristics and found the effect of intake port geometries on engine performance. The flow characteristics of four-valve cylinder head were examined in a steady flow rig for different intake ports. Tumble intensity of intake configurations with different entry angles were quantified with a tumble meter. The velocity and angular momentum distributions in the tumble adaptor were measured under steady conditions with PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry). We have obtained the results that flow structure becomes complicated by valve interference at low valve lift. As the valve interferences were reducing and the flow pattern changed to large vortex structure with tumble direction, intake ports with different entry angles have different tumble centers. Tumble eccentricity of intake port with low entry angle was large, so that the port had relatively much angular momentum compared to others which was expected to improve combustion performance.

Problems related with flows around structures are typical in various engineering fields. The characteristics of these flow structures depend strongly on the shape of the body. The flow regime around square cylinders which are also employed in various applications has also been investigated. In addition to a single body, flows past closely spaced structures arranged in tandem are observed in numerous practical applications. In this study, the flow characteristics around the circular and the square cylinder were investigated according to S/D. The velocity fields and Reynolds stress of the single cylinders were acquired to explain the flow behaviors between tandem cylinders. The differences observed in the flow behaviors of square and circular cylinders were studied. The flow patterns around two tandem cylinders can be classified into three types of wake interference behaviors according to S/D. This is related with the flows between cylinders.

The flow around two rectangular cylinders with aspect ratio of 0.5 in a tandem arrangement, was investigated using pressure measurements (in a wind tunnel) and flow visualizations (in a water tunnel) in the range of P/h from 0.6 to 4.0. Four flow patterns were identified, and processes of shear layers wrapping around, the shear layer reattachment, vortices wrapping around and vortices impingement, were observed. Mean and rms pressure distributions, flow visualizations and Strouhal numbers were presented and discussed. The paper revealed that the variations of Strouhal numbers were associated with the shear layers or vortex interference around two cylinders.

The plume interference is a complex phenomenon, consisting of plume-induced boundary layer separation, separated shear layer, multiple shock waves, and their interactions. The base knowledge of plume interference effect on powered missiles and flight vehicles is not yet adequate to get an overall insight of the flow physics in plume-freestream flow field. Computational studies are performed to better understand the flow physics of the plume-induced shock and separation for Simple, Rounded, Porous-extension test model configurations. The present study simulates highly underexpanded exhaust plume effect on missile body at the transoni $c^ersonic speeds. In order to investigate the plume-induced separation phenomenon, Simple, Rounded and Porous-extension plate are attacked to the missile afterbody. The computational result shows that the rounded afterbody and the porous-extension wall attached at the missile base can alleviate the plume-induced shock wave and separation phenomenon and improve the control of the missile body.dy.

The instrumented capsule is subjected to flow-induced vibration(FIV) due to the flow of the primary coolant and then the structural integrity of the capsule during irradiation in the HANARO reactor is an issue of major concern. For this purpose the acceleration was measured by four accelerometers attached to the protection tube of the capsule mainbody and the displacement of test holes was calcultated using commercial finite element program ANSYS to evaluate the structural interference with the neighboring flow tubes under the reactor operating condition. The calculated displacements of test holes in the reactor in-core were found to be lower than the values of allowable design criteria.

An ejector is designed for the purpose of engine bay cooling. The primary flow of the ejector is the exhaust gas of the PW206C turboshaft engine. The mass flow of secondary flow is calculated by using the approximate analytic equation. And the effect of exhaust gas flow on the fuselage surface is investigated by using the Fluent Code. Three types of exhaust duct shape were compared in the viewpoint of surface temperature and aerodynamic drag. As a result, exhaust duct shape P3 shows minimum interference of exhaust gas and fuselage and minimum increment of drag among the three candidate shapes.

We consider a power controlled code division multiple access (CDMA) system with multiple flow types. At each of the N nodes, there are F flow types with different signal-to-interference-and-noise-ratio (SINR) requirements. To keep the complexity of the transmitter low, we assume that each node uses the same power level for all its flows. The single flow case has been fully solved and is well-understood. We concentrate on the multiple flow case, and use a novel and different approach. For the uplink problem with N = 2 and F arbitrary, the necessary and sufficient conditions to have a solution are found and proved. For the general N > 1 uplink problem, we provide a necessary condition for the problem to have a solution and an iterative algorithm to find the optimum solution. For the downlink case with F > 1 some properties of the optimal sequences are obtained.

Using a three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model with the $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence closure scheme based on the renormalization group theory, flow regimes in urban street canyons are classified according to the building and street aspect ratios. The transition between skimming flow (SF) and wake interference flow (WIF) is determined with the size of double-eddy circulation generated behind the upwind building. The transition between WIF and isolated roughness flow (IRF) is determined with the flow reattachment distance from the upwind building. The critical aspect ratios at which the flow transition occurs are found and compared with those in previous studies. The results show that the flow-regime classification method used in this study is quite reasonable and that the values of the critical aspect ratios are generally consistent with those in fluid experiments or large-eddy simulation. The regression equation describing a relation between the building and street aspect ratios at the flow-regime transition is presented.

Three-dimensional vortical flow and separated flow topology near the casing wall in an axial flow fan having two different tip clearances have been investigated by a Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) flow simulation. The simulation shows that the tip leakage vortex formed close to the leading edge of the blade tip on suction side grows in the streamwise direction. On the casing wall, a separation line is formed upstream of the leakage vortex center due to the interference between the leakage vortex and main flow. The reverse flow is observed between the separation line and the attachment line generated downstream of the trailing edge, and increased with enlarging tip clearance. The patterns of a leakage velocity vector including a leakage flow rate are also analyzed according to two tip clearances. It is noted that the understanding of the distribution of a limiting streamline on the casing wall is very important to grasp the characteristics of the vortical flow in the axial flow fan.
