In this study, the variation of spark plug location in the combustion chamber was investigated for the sake of emission characteristics from SI engine by using PDA valve. The swirl is ong of the important parameters that effects emission characteristics. PDA valve has been used to satisfy the requirements of sufficient swirl generation to improve combustion and emission reduction to effect on flow profile on a combustion chamber. Especially, the variation of spark plug location have an important effect to analyze exhaust gas and the early flame propagative process. Therefore, this test is forced that injection timing, spark timing and intake air motion govern the stable combustion. From the results, it showed that the variable spark plug location and PDA valve can be reduced exhaust gas.

Jet impingement on a moving plate, which is applicable to cooling of hot metals in a steel-making process, is investigated numerically by solving the Navier-Stokes equations in the liquid and gas phases. The liquid-gas interface or free surface is tracked by a level-set method which is improved by incorporating the ghost fluid approach based on a sharp-interface representation. The computations are made for multiple jets as well as a single jet to compare their flow characteristics. Also, the effects of the nozzle pitch, moving velocity of plate and jet velocity on the interfacial motion and the associated flow and temperature fields.

There are many difficulties in realizing Ultra-micro gas turbine system. Among them, the effects of tip clearance upon the micro turbine flowfield are discussed in this paper. The flowfield was investigated numerically with the Reynolds-averaged three-dimensional thin-layer Navier-Stokes equations. Calculations were conducted with clearance height from 0％ to 10% of the passage height. Leakage mass flow and deterioration of efficiency are proportional to the clearance height for the clearance height larger than 4%. However, in the case of 2% clearance, leakage flow is significantly reduced due to relative motion of the casing and as a result deterioration of efficiency is very small. It is difficult to control tip clearance in micro turbines, but the results of this study indicate that if the clearance height is controlled within a few per-cent of passage height, deterioration of stage performance will be small.

Shock waves form in the intergalactic medium as a consequence of accretion, merger, and turbulent motion during the structure formation of the universe. They not only heat gas but also govern non-thermal processes through the acceleration of cosmic rays (CRs), production of magnetic fields, and generation of vorticity. We examine diffusive shock acceleration of the pre-existing as well as freshly injected populations of nonthermal, CR particles at weak cosmological shocks. Since the injection is extremely inefficient at weak shocks, the pre-existing CR population dominates over the injected population. If the pressure due to pre-existing CR protons is about 5 % of the gas thermal pressure in the upstream flow, the downstream CR pressure can absorb typically a few to 10 % of the shock ram pressure at shocks with the Mach number M<3. Yet, the re-acceleration of CR electrons can result in a substantial synchrotron emission behind the shock. The implication of our findings for observed bright radio relics is discussed.

A rotary kiln furnace is one of the most widely used gas-solid reactors in the industrial field. Although the rotary kiln is a versatile system and has different size, approach to the reactor modeling can be generalized in terms of flow motion of the solid and gas phases, heat transfer, and chemical reactions on purpose. In this paper, starting from a zero-dimensional model and extending to higher dimension and comprehensive models, overall procedure of the design development of rotary kiln reactors and considerations are presented. The approaches to performance analysis of the reactors are introduced and examples of application cases are presented.

This paper describes the electron transport characteristics in $SiH_4$ gas calculated for the range of E/n:0.5~300(Td) and Pressure:0.5, 1, 2.5(Torr) by the Monte carlo simulation and Boltzmann equation method using a set of electron collision cross sections determined by the reported results. The motion has been calculated to give swarm parameters for the electron drift velocity, longitudinal and transverse diffusion coefficients, the electron ionization coefficients, characteristics energy and the electron energy distribution function. The electron energy distributions function has been analysed in $SiH_4$ at E/N: 30, 50(Td)for a case of the equilibrium region in the mean electron energy and respective set of electron collision cross sections. The results of Monte carlo simulation and Boltzmann equation have been compared with experimental data by ohmori ad Pollock.

The performance of gas turbine engines is affected by instabilities, like as rotating stall and/or surge. Rotating Stall is a transient intermediate stage between normal flow and complete flow breakdown leading to engine surge. Rotating Stall is associated with large amplitude nonaxisymmetric flow variations rotating around the compressor annulus. This paper presents the evolutions of stall propagation in a compressor cascade by numerical analysis. The flow phenomena due to stall cells and propagation speed are examined using 2 dimensional Navier - Stokes equations.

This paper represents how a muzzle brake affects the dynamic characteristics of the recoil system. A muzzle brake is a device attached to the muzzle for the express purpose of diverting the propellant gas stream from its original path, thereby creating a foreward thrust on the recoiling gun which is in opposition to its rearward motion. In order to obtain the full advantage of a muzzle brake, it is necessary that the recoil system of a gun be designed for the purpose.

The linear MHD(magnetohydro-dynamic) machine obtains the linear motion by replacing the solid conducting secondary of LIM with the ionized gas, plasma or the liquid metal. The electromagnetic pump which is a kind of MHD machine is divided into induction pump and conduction pump. This paper shows the classification and development trends of MHD machines and the characteristics of double sided flat linear induction pump (DFLIP).

In previous modeling of Helmholtz-type pulse combustion water heater, muffler and the motion of the flapper valve were omitted. In present work, these have been included in modeling for providing more accurate information regarding the thermal and dynamic behavior of the water heater. In addition, a computer simulation based on the modeling was developed. The comparison of computer predictions with available experimental data shows that the simulation is satisfactory in predicting the nature of operating behavior, amplitudes of the pressure oscillations, and the magnitude of the frequency. But the predicted time-averaged axial temperature of the flue gas along the flue tube length is somewhat below the previous experimental results. The temperature pulsation of the combustion chamber and the velocity pulsation of the flue gas were predicted which have never been measured in previous studies. In particular, the latter is of importance for a valid determination of the heat transfer enhancement due to the gas flow pulsation. Heat transfer results in flue tube were presented and discussed. Also the effects on the installation of the muffler were investigated.
