Almost all power plant boiler has temperature distribution nonuniformity problem in heat transfer tube flow path. It can cause hot spot damage of superheated or reheated heat transfer section and reduce maintenance schedule when nonuniformity is severe. There are two solutions for improvement temperature nonuniformity. one is change of gas flow distribution of gas path and the other is contorl steam flow in tube bank. Of course, first method is very difficulty to apply but second method is'nt. In this paper, control steam flow is used to solve temperature nonuniformity of power plant boiler.

The present paper examines the thermal and flow characteristics of a parallel flow heat exchanger and investigates the effects of the parameters on thermal performance by defining the flow nonuniformity. Thermal performance of a parallel flow heat exchanger is maximized by the optimization using Newton's searching method. The flow nonuniformity is chosen as an object function. The parameters such as the locations of separator, inlet, and outlet are expected to have a large influence on thermal performance of a parallel flow heat exchanger. The effect of these parameters are quantified by flow nonuniformity. The results show that the optimal locations of inlet and outlet are 19.73 mm and 10.9 mm, respectively. It is also shown that the heat transfer increases by 7.6% and the pressure drop decreases by 4.7%, compared to the reference model.

지하저장공동의 적절한 설계와관리를 위해서는 공동주위의 지하수 흐름이 분석되어야 한다. 지하수 흐름은 수리전도도의 공간적인 변동성에 의해 영향을 받게 되므로 본 연구에서는 이러한 영향분석을 위해 추계학적 개념을 도입한 2차원 유한요소모형을 개발하였다. 추계학적으로 정의된 불균일 매질에서의 2차원 정류흐름에 대한 근사해를 얻기 위해 Monte carlo 방법을 이용하엿으며, 이를 위해 알려진 평균과 표준편차를 가진 수리전도도를 발생시켰다. 모형을 통한 예측결과의 불확실성은 수리전도도의 불균일성 뿐 아니라 수막시설이나 경계조건과 같은 흐름계의 성질에도 좌우되는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 수두와 동수경사의 예측에 대한 불확실성은 평균동수경사가 상대적으로 큰 공동직상부에서 크고, 경계로부터 멀수록 커지는 것으로 확인되었다. 본 연구에서는 특히 동수경사의 불확실성을 널리 안려진 기밀조건식과 관계시켜 분석하였다.

The application of carbon dioxide as an attractive natural working fluid in air cooling and heating system is increasingly important in view of the CFC substitution problem. The thermal performance of compact evaporator was analyzed using section-by-section method. The effects of the two-dimensional nonuniformity of air flow through the evaporator is presented. The detrimental effect of the aid flaw nonuniformity on the thermal performance of the evaporator is found to be significant for many typical applications. It is shown that total heat transfer rate of evaporator using $CO_2$ is higher than that using R134a at the simulation conditions.

The effect of flow distribution on thermal and flow performance of a parallel flow heat exchanger has been numerically investigated. The flow distribution has been altered by varying the geometrica l parameters that included the locations of the separators, and the inlet/outlet of the heat exchanger. Flow nonuniformities along paths of the heat exchanger, which were believed to be dominantly influential to the thermal performance, have been observed to eventually optimize the design of the heat exchanger. The optimization has been accomplished by minimizing the flow nonuniformity that served as an object function when the Newton's searching method was applied. It was found that the heat transfer of the optimized model increased approximately 7.6%, and the pressure drop decreased 4.7%, compared to those of the base model of the heat exchanger.

For the heat and fluid flow analyses of a parallel flow heat exchanger, an improved model considering the effect of flat tube with micro-channels is proposed. The effect of flow distribution on the thermal performance of a heat exchanger is numerically investigated. The flow distribution is examined by varying geometrical parameters, i.e., the position of the separators and the inlet/outlet, and the aspect ratio of micro-channels of the heat exchanger. The flow nonuniformities along the paths of the heat exchanger are proposed and observed to evaluate the thermal performance of the heat exchanger. The optimization using ALM method has been accomplished by minimizing the flow nonuniformity. It is found that the heat transfer rate of the optimized model is increased by 6.0% of that of the reference heat exchanger model, and the pressure drop by 0.4%

The performance of a radiator is generally determined using a wind tunnel, in which the air velocity is uniform. However, when it is installed in a car, the distribution of the air velocity becomes nonuniform due to front-end openings, cross members, and horns etc., resulting in lower performance. In this study, several underhood flow simulations have been first performed to get flow rates and velocity distributions over the radiator. Secondly heat release rates are calculated by both a performance curve and a radiator model. Finally, using an engine cooling system simulator, radiator-top-tank temperature is predicted and the variations of heat release rate and radiator-top-tank temperature with nonuniformity of air velocity distributions are analyzed. The results show that the current engine cooling model successfully accounts for the nonuniformity effects that should be considered for higher accuracy in predicting engine cooling performance.

This study numerically analyzes the thermal and flow characteristics inside the header in PFHE(parallel-flow heat exchanger) by employing a three-dimensional turbulence modeling. The following quantities are examined by varying the injection angle of the working fluid, the location of entrance and the shape of entrance: flow nonuniformity, heat transfer rate, and flow distribution in each passage. The result shows that the degree of significance among the parameters affecting the header part is in the order of the injection angle, the shape of entrance, and the location of entrance. The result also indicates that heat transfer rates compared to the reference model are increased by about 152% for the angle of injection of -$20^{\circ}C$, by about 127% for the shape of entrance with right and left long rectangular form, and by about 108% for the location of entrance located at the lowest Position.

Compared to axial compressors, an analytical model capable of analyzing the flow in centrifugal compressor lacks because of the difficulty in governing equations for radial duct. Therefore, this paper presents a new model to predict flow field in a centrifugal compressor with a sinusoidal asymmetric tip clearance. To predict the 2 dimensional flow in the inlet and exit of the centrifugal compressor, the two flow fields are connected with compressor characteristic based on Moore-Greitzer model. Contrary to axial compressors, the nonuniformity of impeller exit pressure in centrifugal compressor decreases as flow coefficient decreases. In addition, that is sensitive to the slope of pressure rise by eccentricity. The maximum velocity exists right before the maximum tip clearance.

중적외선 카메라의 초점면배열 검출기는 검출기 화소마다 응답 특성이 달라 검출기 화소 간 불균일이 발생한다. 또한 카메라 운용 중 카메라 내부 발열 등의 영향으로도 영상에 불균일이 발생한다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 카메라 제작 단계에서 흑체를 이용해 검출기 화소 간 차이 교정용으로 이득과 오프셋 테이블을 생성해 보정하는 것이 일반적이다. 장비 운용 중 내부 발열 등에 의한 불균일을 보정하는 방법은 입력 영상을 기반으로 한 새로운 오프셋 값을 생성하는 방법을 사용한다. 본 논문에서는 장비 운용 중 발생하는 영상 불균일 보정을 위한 방법으로 입력되는 영상을 블록 형태의 패치로 분할한 후 균질한 영상 패치만 불균일 보정 테이블 생성에 사용하는 기법을 제안하였다. 제안된 기법은 불균일 보정 테이블 생성을 위해 획득하는 영상의 카메라 시선 움직임으로 인해 발생하는 움직임 자국 형태의 인공 패턴 노이즈 발생을 방지할 뿐만 아니라, 적은 수의 영상으로도 불균일 보정 성능 향상을 꾀할 수 있다. 실험 결과 기존 전통적인 영상 기반 불균일 보정 방법에서 발생하는 영상 흐름 자국 형태의 왜곡이 발생하지 않았으며 기존 방법 대비 50% 이상 적은 수의 영상으로도 양호한 보정 성능을 확인할 수 있었다.
