It is well known that the height of tank metacenter above the centroid of fluid in a tank is given by i/v where I is the inertia moment of free surface and v is the fluid volume. It is supposed in this formula that the inclination of ship is small and that the free surface of fluid do not touch the top and the bottom of tank. It the inclination of ship is large, the height of tank metacenter may be possibly greater than that given by i/v. The height of tank metacenter is smaller than i/v when the free surface of fluid touch the top or the bottom of tank. The reasonable method to calculate the height of tank metacenter is presented in this paper and prepared in FORTRAN program by FUNCTION EFFRES. The approximate formula was also developed and given by $g_m=(1+\frac{2}{1}tan^2\theta)[1-EXP\{-12(\frac{\alpha(1-\alpha)k}{tan\theta})^{1.25}\}]\frac{i}{v}$ where $g_m$ is the distance from the centroid of fluid to the tank metacenter, $\theta$ is inclined angle of ship, $\alpha$ is the ratio of filled volume to tank capacity and k is the ratio of the depth to the width of tank. The values calculated by the approximate formula given in this paper were compared with the exact values from the computer program and proved out to be sufficiently precise for practical use.

Currently, the mobile device is required to be miniaturized and lightweight according to the needs of the consumer. For this purpose, each part is produced and assembled in units of modules. Accordingly, the display part is also composed of a cover glass, a touch screen, And it costs a large amount to replace the whole when it is damaged. Therefore, we propose a method to improve the durability of display part using ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) and MR fluid polishing. Before MR fluid polishing process, surface treatment was performed to obtain a polishable surface. A series of experiments were carried out to very fine surface roughness and to secure durability of cover glass. Polishing depth, feed rate, and abrasive size were selected to examine the MR fluid polishing results.

As a deterministic finishing process for the optical parts having complex surface, machining performance of the magnetorheological(MR) fluid jet polishing of optical glass are studied and compared with a general water jet polishing. First, design of the jet polishing system which has the special electromagnet-nozzle unit for stabilizing the slurry jet based on MR fluid and the change of jet shape as magnetic field is applied are explained. Second, for the BK7 glass, machining spot and its cross section profile are analyzed and the unique effect of MR fluid jet polishing is shown. Third, both material removal depth and surface roughness are explored in order to investigate the polishing performance of MR fluid jet. With the same ceria abrasives and amount in the polishing slurries, MR fluid jet shows superior machining performance compared to water jet and the difference of material removal mechanism and its resulting performance are described.

The advantages of the Magnetic Fluid Linear Pump(MFLP) is that this device could Pump the non-conductive. non-magnetic liquid such as Insulin or blood because of the segregation structure of the magnetic fluid and pumping liquid. In this device. the sequential currents are needed to Produce pumping forces so that Pumping Forces and Pumping speed mainly depend on the current Patterns. The excessive forces at Pumping moment could cause the medical shock, and weak forces at intermediate moment could cause the back flow or the pumping liquid. So the ripples of the pumping forces need to be reduced for the medical application. In this research, the driving characteristics in the MFLP by operating current is analysed. The change of magnetic fluid surface according to the driving currents could be obtained be magneto-hydrodynamic analysis so that Pumping fortes could be computed by integration of the surface moving to the pumping direction at each moment. The actual MFLP with 13mm diameter was made and tested for experiments. The effects of driving current and frequency on the pumping forces and pumping speed were analyzed and compared with experimental measurements.

Internal waves occur at the interface between two layers caused by a seawater density difference. The internal waves generated by a body moving in a two-layer fluid are also related to the generation of surface waves because of their interaction. In these complex flow phenomena, the experimental measurements and experimental set-up for the wave patterns of the internal waves and surface waves are very difficult to perform in a laboratory. Therefore, studies have mainly been carried out using numerical analysis. However, model tests are needed to evaluate the accuracy of numerical models. In this study, the various experimental conditions were evaluated using CFD simulations before experiments to measure the wave patterns of the internal waves and surface waves in a stratified two-layer fluid. The numerical simulation conditions included variations in the densities of the fluids, depth of the two-layer fluid, and moving speed of the underwater body.

The shear stress on a surface due to the thin film fluid flow is an important issue. In case of a rotating disk, the fluid is delivered to the edge of the disk by centrifugal force, which acts as a body force on the fluid. Wear of a surface is affected by the shear stress acting on the surface and curvature. In this study, we utilize computational fluid dynamics software to model the ratio of curvature and local shear stress on solid surfaces. The key goal of the study is to determine an optimized curvature for the thin film fluid flow on a solid surface in order to minimize the local shear stress affecting the wear of this surface. Our results on the effects of curvature will be utilized for the design of devices that utilize thin film fluid flow on a solid surface, such as rotating-disk spray systems and thin film coating.

Because the journal and bearing surface are fully separated by the oil film during the normal operation, fluid film bearings operating in the hydrodynamic lubrication region are expected to have an infinite life. However, there are many parameters that lead to interfere with the normal operation of the bearing and lead to its failure. In this paper, both the causes and countermeasures of the bearing failure are described. Also, the characteristics of wiped bearing surface are investigated through mechanical and chemical test.

In this paper, the investigation about the elevation control and the formation of the free surface of magnetic fluids is carried out theoretically and experimentally on the basis of magnetic fluids is carried out theoretically and experimentally on the basis of Rosensweig' Ferrohydrodynamic Bernoulli Equation. Governing equations of magnetic fields are solved using the concept of vector potential. While applied magnetic fields are induced by 4$\times$4 electromagnet located under the magnetic fluid, the fee surface of the magnetic fluid is formed the balance of surface force, gravity, pressure difference, magnetic normal pressure and magnetic body force. The results of numerical simulation and experiment show the formation of the free surface of the magnetic fluid. Using PID control, an experiment for the elevation control of the free surface of magnetic fluids is performed.

This paper describes a volume of fluid(VOF) method, mRHRIC for the simulation of free surface flows around ship hulls and provides its validation against benchmark test cases. The VOF method is developed on the basis of RHRIC method developed by Park et al. that uses high resolution differencing schemes to algebraically preserve both the sharpness of interface and the boundedness of volume fraction. A finite volume method is used to solve the governing equations, while the realizable ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ model is used for turbulence closure. The present numerical results of the resistance performance tests for DTMB5415 and KCS hull forms show a good agreement with available experimental data and those of other free surface methods.

With the development of high speed and accuracy machining, the micro-chips are formed in the machining process and broken particles are circulated with the cutting fluid. The surface roughness and accuracy of part are deteriorated because the metal particles included in the cutting fluid are embedded on machined surface. In this study, the influences of particles for the machined surface according to filtering degrees are evaluated and the embedding mechanism is suggested.
