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.

본 논문에서는 도로교통 여건과 제한속도 변화가 교통소통과 안전에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 교통소통지표로 통행속도와 순행속도, 「순행속도-통행속도」, 편차, 대편차비율, 상충횟수 등을 안전지표로 설정하고 도로교통 여건과 제한속도 변화가 이들에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 분석 결과에 의하면 제한속도는 소통지표에는 크게 영향을 주지만 안전지표에는 크게 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 분석되었다. 통계적 유의성 검정 결과 제한속도가 증가함에 따라 소통지표는 증가한다는 것이 유의하다고 입증되었다. 그러나 안전지표들은 증가하는 경우가 많지만 통계적으로는 유의성이 입증되지 않았다. 그러므로 다양한 도로여건과 교통량 변화에 따른 교통흐름 상태를 현실적으로 고려해서 제한속도가 설정되고 운영된다면 운전자들이 주행하는 속도에 부합되고 교통소통과 안전이 향상된다고 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서 제시한 교통소통지표와 안전지표들을 고려하여 제한속도를 산정하고 교통량 변화에 따라 제한속도를 운영할 경우 도로상의 교통 흐름을 안정화시키는 데 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

Flow through compliant tubes with linear taper in wall thickness is numerically simulated by finite element analysis. Two models are examined: a planar two-dimensional channel, and an axisymmetric tube. For verification of the numerical method, flow through a compliant stenotic vessel is simulated and compared to existing experimental data. Computational results for an axisymmetric tube show that as cross-sectional area falls with a reduction in downstream pressure, flow rate increases and reaches a maximum when the speed index (mean velocity divided by wave speed) is near unity at the point of minimum cross-section area, indicative of wave speed flow limitation or "choking" (flow speed equals wave speed) in previous one-dimensional studies. For further reductions in downstream pressure, flow rate decreases. Cross-sectional narrowing is significant but localized. When the ratio of downstream-to-upstream wall thickness is ${\le}$ 2 the area throat is located near the downstream end; as wall taper is increased to ${\ge}$ 3 the constriction moves to the upstream end of the tube. In the planar two-dimensional channel, area reduction and flow limitation are also observed when outlet pressure is decreased. In contrast to the axisymmetric case, however, the elastic wall in the two-dimensional channel forms a smooth concave surface with the area throat located near the mid-point of the elastic wall. Though flow rate reaches a maximum and then falls, the flow does not appear to be choked.

This paper proposes a method to estimate the flow speed of pedestrians in surveillance videos. In the proposed method, the average moving speed of pedestrians is measured by estimating the size of real-world motion from the observed motion vectors. For this purpose, pixel-to-meter conversion factors are calculated from camera geometry. Also, the height information, which is missing because of camera projection, is predicted statistically from simulation experiments. Compared to the previous works for flow speed estimation, our method can be applied to various camera views because it separates scene parameters explicitly. Experiments are performed on both simulation image sequences and real video. In the experiments on simulation videos, the proposed method estimated the flow speed with average error of about 0.1m/s. The proposed method also showed a promising result for the real video.

Velocity and density distributions of a high-speed and initial $CO_{2}$ jet flow have been analyzed simultaneously by a developed three-dimensional digital speckle tomography and a particle image velocimetry(PIV). Three high-speed cameras have been used for tomography and PIV since a shape of a nozzle for the jet flow is asymmetric and the initial flow is fast and unsteady, The speckle movements between no flow and $CO_{2}$ jet flow have been obtained by a cross-correlation tracking method so that those distances can be transferred to deflection angles of laser rays for density gradients. The three-dimensional density fields for the high-speed $CO_{2}$ jet flow have been reconstructed from the deflection angles by a real-time tomography method and the two-dimensional velocity fields have been calculated by a PIV method simultaneously and instantaneously.

A high-speed and initial helium jet flow has been analyzed by a developed four-dimensional digital speckle tomography. Multiple high-speed cameras have been used to capture movements of speckles in multiple angles of view simultaneously because a shape of a nozzle for the jet flow is asymmetric and the initial jet flow is fast and unsteady. The speckle movements between no flow and helium jet flow from the asymmetric nozzle controlled by a solenoid valve have been obtained by a cross-correlation tracking method so that those distances can be transferred to deflection angles of laser rays for density gradients. The four-dimensional density fields for the high-speed helium jet flow have been reconstructed from the deflection angles by a developed real-time tomography method.

For a hydro turbine electricity generation system in river or bay, a venturi system could be applied to accelerate flow speed at the inlet of the turbine system in a flow field. In this study, a steady flow simulation was conducted to understand the effect of venturi system on the acceleration of current speed at the inlet of a hydro turbine system. According to the continuity equation, the flow speed is inversely proportional to the cross-section area in a conduit flow; however, it would be different in an open region because the venturi system would be an obstruction in the flow region. As the throat area is 1/5 of the inlet area of the venturi, the flow velocity is accelerated up to 2.1 times of the inlet velocity. It is understood that the venturi system placed in an open flow region gives resistance to the upcoming flow and disperses the flow energy around the venturi system. The result of the study should be very important information for an optimum design of a hydro turbine electricity generation system.

Internal flow measurement of very low specific-speed semi-open impellers has been carried out by PIV in order to understand better the internal flow patterns that are responsible fur the unique performance of these centrifugal pumps operating in the range of very low specific speed. Two types of impellers, one equipped with six radial blades (Impeller A) and the other with four conventional backward-swept blades (Impeller B), are tested in a centrifugal pump operating at a non-dimensional specific-speed of $n_s=0.24$. Complex flow patterns captured by PIV are discussed in conjunction with the overall pump performance measured separately. It is revealed that Impeller A achieves higher effective head than Impeller B even though the flow patterns in Impeller A are more complex, exhibiting secondary flows and reverse flows in the impeller passage. It is shown that both the localized strong outward flow at the pressure side of each blade outlet and the strong outward through-flow along the suction side of each blade are responsible for the better head performance of Impeller A.

Sealing of lubricant-air mixture in the high performance machining center is one of most the important characteristics to carry out enhanced lubrication. High speed spindle requires non-contact type of sealing mechanism. Evaluating an optimum seal design to minimize leakage is concerned in the aspect of flow control. Effect of geometry and leakage path are evaluated according to variation of sealing geometry. Velocity, pressure, turbulence intensity of profile is calculated to find more efficient geometry and variables. This offers a methodological way of enhancement seal design for high speed spindle. The working fluid is regarded as two phases that are mixed flow of oil phase and air phase. It is more reasonable to simulate an oil jet or oil mist type high speed spindle lubrication. Turbulence and compressible flow model are used to evaluate a flow characteristic. This paper considers a design effect of sealing capability of non- contact type seals for high speed spindle and analyzes leakage characteristics to minimize a leakage 7 on the same sealing area.

In this study basic equations of fiber orientations is cimpared with experimental results. It is found that fiber orientations of short fiber reinforced polymeric composite under compression molding are governed by slope of flow speed in x-y direction. Fiber orientation angle of mold is also found to increase with closure speed and the compression ratio. At the middle of the mold, the slope of flow speed is larger in x-direction than in y-direction. At the wall of the mold, the shope of flow speed in y-direction occurs due to the effect of friction, hence affects the fiber orientation. The effect of partial flow, which incurs y-direction orientation causes to increase the fiber orientation angle at the fore part of the flow.
