In this study, the characteristics of turbulent flow and collection efficiency for an one-stage electrostatic precipitator(ESP) with slit type collecting electrode for urban railway underground tunnels were obtained using computational fluid dynamics(CFD) commercial code FLUENT 6.3 and lab-scale experiments. The electrostatic precipitator was operated under high gas velocity(3~12m/s). Five different designs of collecting electrode, flat plate-type and a slit-type of 3mm, 5mm, 7mm and 10mm slit width and four various gas velocity(3, 6, 9, and 12m/s) were used and applied. A standard k-${\varepsilon}$ model in CFD commercial code FLUENT 6.3 was used for flow simulation. The flow simulation results showed that the turbulent intensity of flat plate-type was higher than slit-type under all gas velocity conditions and also the turbulent intensity of flat plate-type was increased continuously, but in case of slit-type was maintained at constant range. And, the turbulent intensity was decreased according to increasing of slit width. The experimental results showed that the collection efficiency of slit-type was higher than flat plate-type under all gas velocity conditions. And, over 6m/s gas velocity condition, the collection efficiency of 5mm and 7mm was highest, when compared to 3mm and 10mm.

Although the motion of the three-phase contact line on a solid substrate has been extensively studied thus far, the understanding of the dynamics of the contact line of liquid/liquid/gas phases is far from complete. Here we deposit a drop of isopropyl alcohol (IPA) on water and HFE-7100 whose free surfaces are exposed to air to observe the flow field around the contact line. By combining the shadowgraph and high-speed imaging techniques, we find that vortices are spontaneously generated at the contact line, which grow in size with time. The flow is attributed to the Marangoni stress that pulls a liquid of lower-surface tension toward a liquid surface having a higher surface tension. However, it is not still clear why the entrained lower-surface-tension liquid should whirl rapidly beneath the contact line. We also visualize the flow by the particle image velocimetry (PIV) to find out that the rotational velocity reaches the order of 1 mm/s near the free surface.

Three dimensional numerical analysis of the oxygen and air were performed to investigate the combustion characteristics in a Corner-type pulverized coal boiler. With the actual operation data of the power plant, the distribution of velocity, gas temperature, $O^2$, $CO_2$, $H_2O$, $N_2$ as well as the particle tracking in the boiler were investigated. The predicted values at the outlet of furnace for the gas temperature and major species concentrations gave a good agreement with the designed values. The present analysis on combustion characteristics in a boiler would provide the useful information for the stable boiler operation and in trouble shooting boiler problem.

The goal of this research is the shape design of the valve using a computer simulation. For an analysis a basic mathematical model describing compression cycle is considered as consisting of five sets of coupled equations. These are the volume equation (kinematics), valve dynamic equation (dynamics), ideal gas equation (thermodynamics), Bernoulli equation (fluid dynamics), and dynamic equation of fluid particle based on Helmholtz equation (acoustics). Valve motion is made by the superposition of free vibration modes obtained by the finite element method. That is, the eigenvalues and eigenvectors are the sufficient modeling factors fur the valve in the simulation program. Thus, to design a shape of the valve, shape design sensitivity through chain-ruled derivatives is considered from two sensitivity coefficients, one is the design sensitivity of the capability of compressor with respect to the eigenvalues of the valve, and the other is the design sensitivity of the eigenvalue with respect to the shape change of the valve. In this research, the continuum design sensitivity analysis concepts are used for the latter.

본 연구에서는 서로 다른 항력 모델이 원추형 유동층 연소기 내의 수력학적 특성과 열전달 현상에 미치는 영향에 대해, 입자상 유동에 대한 분자운동론을 적용한 오일러-오일러 모델을 사용하여 수치 해석적으로 연구하였다. Gidaspow 항력 모델과 Syamlal-O'Brien 항력 모델에 대해 유입 공기의 속도와 입자의 크기를 변화시키면서 연소기 내의 압력강하나 베드 팽창률 및 벽과 베드 사이의 열전달 계수의 변화를 조사하였다. 그 결과 베드의 팽창률은 속도가 증가함에 따라 커졌으며 압력강하는 속도의 증가에 따라 감소하였다. 벽과 베드 사이의 열전달 계수는 유입 속도가 증가하면 증가하고 입자의 크기가 증가하면 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 베드의 팽창률이나 압력 강하와 같은 수력학적 특성은 항력 모델에 큰 영향을 받지 않았으나 열전달 계수는 항력 모델에 따라 차이가 나타났다.

The electrostatic precipitator (ESP) has been used for degrading atmospheric pollutants. These devices induce the electrical forces to facilitate the removal of particulate pollutants. The ions travel from the high voltage electrode to the grounded electrode by Coulomb force induced by the electric field when a high voltage is applied between two electrodes. The ions collide with gas molecules and exchange momentum with each other thus inducing fluid motion, electrohydrodynamic (EHD) flow. In this study, for the simulation of electric field and EHD flow in ESPs, an open source EHD solver, "espFoam", has been developed using open source CFD toolbox, OpenFOAM(R) (Open Field Operation and Manipulation). The electric potential distribution and ionic space charge density distribution were obtained with the developed solver, and validated with experimental results in the literature. The comparison results showed good agreement. Turbulence model is also incorporated to simulate turbulent flow; hence the developed solver can analyze laminar and turbulent flow. In distributions of electric potential and space charge, the distributions become distorted and asymmetric as the flow velocity increases. The effect of electrical drift flow was investigated for different flow velocities and the secondary flow in a flow of low velocity is successfully predicted.

실리콘 카바이드 입자(평균 입도 123 ㎛)의 유동층 태양열 흡열기의 성능 및 효율에 영향을 미치는 입자 거동 해석을 위해 MP-PIC 모델을 이용하여 전산모사를 수행하였고, 기존 실험결과와의 비교를 통해 검증하였다. 특히, 본 연구에서는 실험적으로 접근하기 어려운 유동층 표면 부근에서의 거동을 모사함으로써 흡열 성능과 입자 거동과의 상호 영향을 분석하였다. CPFD 모사결과는 입자층 및 프리보드에서의 평균 고체체류량과 압력요동 등 수력학적 특성 실험결과를 잘 예측하였다. 입자 흡열기에서 1차적으로 태양열 에너지를 흡수하여 층 내부로 전달하는 층 표면 부근에서의 국부 고체체류량은 입자층 내 기포거동에 따라 중심부에서 상대적으로 낮은 값을 나타내는 불균일 분포를 나타내었다. 프리보드 영역에서 국부 고체체류량은 기체속도가 증가할수록 축방향과 각 높이에서의 횡방향에서 불균일성이 증가하였고, 이는 입자 흡열기의 프리보드 영역 내 비산된 입자에 의해 반사된 태양광 에너지 손실과 연관된 압력강하 상대표준편차 증가의 원인임을 나타내었다. 입자 흡열기 내 기체속도 증가에 따른 국부적인 기체 및 입자 속도의 변화에 대한 고찰을 통해, 유동층 내 국부적인 입자거동 특성은 Geldart B 입자 물성과 관련된 입자층 내 기포 거동과 밀접하게 연관됨을 확인하였다. 유동층 입자 흡열기의 성능 척도인 일사량 당 유동기체의 출입구 온도차(∆T/I_DNI)는 입자 층 표면 및 표면 상부 프리보드 영역 내 압력요동 RSD와 상관관계가 매우 높음을 확인하였고, 이 결과는 흡열기 성능 개선에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

This study compares the results of collection efficiency of difference gas temperature in cyclone dust collector. The previous researcher's experiment results were used to confirm the reliability of CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) model. Based on this verified CFD model, we extended the analysis on the cyclone dust collectors. In CFD study, we used RNG k-epsilon model for analysis of turbulence flow, fluid is air, the velocity at inlet is 10 m/s, the temperature of air is $20^{\circ}C$, $100^{\circ}C$, $200^{\circ}C$, $300^{\circ}C$, $600^{\circ}C$ and $1000^{\circ}C$. As the temperature decreases, the average velocity of outer vortex and collection efficiency is increased, showed the highest collection efficiency at $20^{\circ}C$. It can be inferred smooth flow in cyclone dust collector is difficult because air viscosity increases as temperature increases. The power required at $1000^{\circ}C$ is almost 18 times greater than that of $20^{\circ}C$ to get the similar collection efficiency.

A flow visualization technique was developed to analyze flow distribution inside a dishwasher in this study. Then, a new design plan was proposed to improve the efficiency of the dishwasher by the analyzed results and it was confirmed experimentally by the developed technique. Gas flow fields inside a drying duct of a tub for a drying process was investigated by a developed PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) and a CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) method. Also, the flow visualization technique was developed for the liquid flow field of a rotor-arm system to propose the improved design idea. Also, interactions between liquid and gas were observed around the rotor-arm system. The two-phase flow was modified to the liquid flow field because laser sheets are refracted when pass through the two-phase flow. Thus, the flow visualization techniques was developed in this study to measure the instantaneous flow velocities in the liquid quantitatively.
