  • Here in this paper, the steady paint film flow on a vertical wall of a non-Newtonian pseudo plastic fluid for drainage problem has been investigated. The exact solution of the nonlinear problem is obtained for the velocity profile. Also the average velocity, volume flux, shear stress on the wall, force to hold the wall in position and normal stress difference have been derived. We retrieve Newtonian case, when material constant ${\mu}_1$ and relaxation time ${\lambda}_1$ equal zero. The results for co-rotational Maxwell fluid is also obtained by taking material constant ${\mu}_1$ = 0. The effect of the zero shear viscosity ${\eta}_0$, the material constant ${\mu}_1$, the relaxation time ${\lambda}_1$ and gravitational force on the velocity profile for drainage problem are discussed and plotted.

  • HFO refrigerants have recently come to be regarded as promising alternatives to R134a for use in turbo chillers. This study provides results from experiments evaluating the film condensation heat transfer characteristics of HFO refrigerants R1234ze(E) and R1233zd(E) on smooth horizontal laboratory tubes. The experiments were conducted at a saturation vapor temperature of $38.0^{\circ}C$ with surface sub-cooling temperatures in the range of $3{\sim}15^{\circ}C$. We observe that the film condensation heat transfer coefficient decreases as surface sub-cooling temperatures increase. In the case of laboratory tubes with a diameter of 19.05 mm, the film condensation heat transfer coefficients of R1234ze(E) and R1233zd(E) were approximately 11% and 20% lower than those of R134a, respectively. Furthermore, our investigation of the effect of tube diameter on film condensation heat transfer coefficients, demonstrates an inverse relationship where the film condensation heat transfer coefficient increases as laboratory tube diameter decreases. We propose experimental correlations of Nusselt number for R1234ze(E) and R1233zd(E), which yield a ${\pm}20%$ error band.

  • Dispersion of coolant jets in a film cooling flow field is the result of a highly complex interaction between the film cooling jets and the mainstream. In order to investigate the effect of blowing ratios on the film cooling of a turbine blade, cylindrical body model is used. Mainstream Reynolds number based on the cylinder diameter is $7.1{\times}10^4$. The effects of coolant flow rates are studied for blowing ratios of 0.7, 1.0, 1.3 and 1.7, respectively. The temperature distribution of the cylindrical model surface is visualized with infrared thermography (IRT). Results show that the film cooling performance could be significantly improved by the shaped injection holes. For higher blowing ratio, the spanwise-diffused injection holes are better due to the lower momentum flux away from the wall plane at the hole exit.

  • Effect of activation energy and crystallization kinetics of polyethylenes (PEs) on the dynamics and stability has been investigated by changing rheological properties and crystallization rate in film casting process. The effect of changes of these properties has been shown using a typical example of short-chain branching (SCB) in linear polyethylenes. SCBs in linear polymers generally lead to the increase of the flow activation energy, and to the decrease of the crystallization rate, making polymer viscosity lower in the case of equivalent molecular weight. In general, the increment of the crystallinity of polymers under partially crystallized state helps to enhance the process stability by increasing tension, and lower fluid viscoelasticity possesses the stabilizing effect for linear polymers. It has been found that the fluid viscoelasticity plays a key role in the control of process stability than crystallization kinetics which critically depends on the cooling to stabilize the film casting process of short-chain branched polymers operated under the low aspect ratio condition.

  • A parametric study on anti-vortex holes for turbine blade cooling was investigated numerically. Three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations and shear stress transport turbulence model were used for analysis of anti-vortex film cooling. Validation of numerical results was carried out comparing with experimental data. The cooling performance of anti-vortex holes was assessed by two geometric variables, the ratio of diameters of holes and the lateral distances between the primary hole and anti-vortex hole at blowing ratios of 0.5 and 1.0. The results showed that the spatially-averaged film-cooling effectiveness increases as the ratio of the diameters increases and the distance between the primary hole and anti-vortex hole decreases.

  • The functional packaging film, that keeps the freshness of the fresh produce, has composed of the ferro fluid particles, chitin and chitosan. The film exhibited selectivity in permeability for carbon dioxide and ethylene gases. Antagonistic effect of the film for Fusarium, Botrysphania, Altanaria and E. coli was excellent. The film kept the favorable taste of Kimchi and Korean strawberry well.

  • The anomalies that appear at every multiple of 15 ℃ in the viscosity of a thin liquid film of water and of water near solid interfaces are explained in this paper by comparing the thermal wavelength and molecular free volume of water, and quantum numbers are found. The possibility that these anomalies are related to the preferred and/or lethal temperatures of organisms is considered. The toxicity of heavy water (D₂O) can also be explained with this approach.

  • A comprehensive theory of the spin coating technique has been reviewed and the basic principles and parameters controlling the process are clearly highlighted, which include spin speed, spin time, acceleration and fume exhaust. The process generally involves four stages: a dispense stage, substrate acceleration stage, a stage of substrate spinning at a constant rate and fluid viscous forces dominate fluid thinning behaviour and a stage of substrate spinning at a constant rate and solvent evaporation dominates the coating thinning behaviour. The study also considered some common thin film defects associated with this technique, which include comet, striation, chucks marks environmental sensitivity and edge effect and possible remedies.

  • Natural convection of a magnetic fluid is different from that of Newtonian fluids because a magnetic body force exists in an addition to gravity and buoyancy forces. In this paper, the natural convection of a magnetic fluids (W-40) in a rectangular enclosure is investigated by numerical and experimental methods. One side wall is kept at a constant temperature ($25^{\circ}C$), and the opposite side wall is also kept at a constant temperature ($20^{\circ}C$), Under above conditions, the magnitude of the magnetic fields were varied and applied. GSMAC scheme is used for the numerical method, and the thermo-sensitive liquid crystal film (R20C5A) is utilized in order to visualize wall-temperature distributions as an experimental verification. This study has resulted in the following fact that the natural convection of a magnetic fluid is controlled by the direction and intensity of the magnetic fields.
