The herringbone groove journal bearing (HGJB) has chevron type grooves on stationary or rotating member of the bearing so that they pump the lubricant inward the grooves when journal rotates. As a result, the pressure is generated around the journal so that the radial stiffness and dynamic stability are improved comparing to the plain journal bearing (PJB) when the bearing operates near the concentric condition. The narrow groove theory, conventionally adopted to simulate the concentric operation of HGJB, is limited to the infinite number of grooves. A numerical study of air-lubricated HGJB is presented for the finite number of grooves. The compressible isothermal Reynolds equation is solved by using Finite Element Method together with the Newton-Raphson iterative procedure and perturbation method. The solutions render the static and dynamic performances of HGJB. Comparison of present results with a PJB validates previously published finite difference solution. The HGJB's geometric parameters influence its static and dynamic characteristics. The optimum geometric parameters are presented for the air-lubricated HGJB in particular conditions.

In this paper, the propagation characteristics due to the horizontal water temperature variations in the sea such as thermal fronts is analyzed by the ray theory. Two models for the temperature anomaly layer are chosen. One is a plane type and the other is a cylindrical type. In the plane type, the temperature increases linearly from a isothermal region to 5km with the gradient of about $2^{\circ}C.$/km, and decreases with the same gradient in next 5km. In the cylindrical type, water temperature increases only with the same gradient from a half cylindrical thermal boundary surface. The result showed that the gradient of acoustic rays decreases in the temperature increasing region and vice versa in temperature decreasing region. And, the transmission loss due to the temperature variation was less than O.2dB in the plane type model as well as in the cylindrical one.

This study was performed to select media for the development of biological activated carbon process. Using activated carbon made by Norit, Calgon, Samchully Co., removal efficiency of humic acid by the isothermal adsorption test and biodegradation of organic matters by microbes attached to BAC and observation and counting of microbes attached to BAC were examined. The removal efficiency of humic acid with dose of activated carbon was influenced by initial concentration. Compared with other activated carbon, Norit was found to be most effective in view of adsorption capacity, biodegradation of organic matter, and attachment characteristics of microorganism. In conclusion, Norit which has high adsorption capacity and good biodegradation of organic matter was recommended for selecting media in BAC process.

The effects of the temperature rise and the turbulence are very important factors to predict the accurate performance of a large tilting pad journal bearing. In this study, the dynamic characteristics of a large tilting pad journal bearing are analyzed, taking into account the three dimensional variation of lubricant viscosity and turbulence. The effects of the temperature rise and the turbulence on the stiffness and damping coefficients are investigated in comparison with the results from the laminar or isothermal theory. The stiffness and damping coefficients increase due to the turbulence but decrease due to the temperature rise. The results show that the effects of both the temperature rise and turbulence must be considered simultaneously in order to predict the dynamic characteristics of a large tilting pad journal bearing more accurately.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the radiant emission characteristics of diffuse equi-lateral trapezoid groove cavity for the case of uniform surface temperature. The theoretically developed results for the apparent emissivity are presented and the values of apparent emissivity for the trapezoid groove cavity were compared with those of the V-groove cavity. In the experimental part of this study, the test models were manufactured from 100x 100x 15mm copper plates on which the equi-lateral trapezoid cavities were grooved. The inclined angles of the groove were 30,45 and 60 degrees and the ratio of groove depth to base surface width varied from 1 to 5 for each inclined angle. As a result of this work, it was found that the trapezoid groove cavity was more general form of V-groove and the apparent emissivity of trapezoid groove cavity was greater than that of V-groove cavity. The resulting equation for the apparent emissivity in the trapezoid groove cavity was valid for the angles greater than 40 degrees.

An experimental study was conducted to investigate an isothermal characteristics of the condenser surface of disk type heat pipe using PF 5060 and FC 40 as working fluids. Desired temperature range at the condenser surface was $90^{\circ}C{\sim}130^{\circ}C$, which was cooled by natural convection. The operating temperature, the height of vapor space, the wall thickness of condenser, and the existence of a wick structure were considered as experimental factors. The temperature difference and the temperature fluctuation at the condenser surface were analysed to describe the performance of the heat pipe.

A premixed flame propagating in a tube suffers strong variation in its shape and structure depending on boundary conditions. The effects of thermal boundary conditions and flow fields on flame propagation are numerically investigated. Navier-Stokes equations and species equations are solved with a one-step irreversible global reaction model of methane-air mixture. Finite volume method using an adaptive grid method is applied to investigate the flame structure. In the case of an adiabatic wall, friction force on the wall significantly affected the flame structure while in the case of an isothermal wall, local quenching near the wall dominated flame shapes and propagation. In both cases, variations of flow fields occurred not only in the near field of the flame but also within the flame itself, which affected propagation velocities. This study provides an overview of the characteristics of flames in small tubes at a steady state.

Recently, the application of 3-roll mill is increasing, because of its flexibility in spread control and stand arrangements due to its compact size. But deformation characteristics and microstructural change in the process is not well known. In this study, austenite grain size (AGS) predictions were made by isothermal FE analyses and a microstructure model available in the literature. From this study, the effect of draught on the AGS characteristics was analyzed based on the divided zones of two major recrystallization behaviors.

Transient liquid phase (TLP) bonding is essential technology to repair micro-cracking on the airfoil of blades and vanes for gas turbines. Understanding of the characteristics of TLP bonding of the superalloys is necessary in the application of the technology for repairing these components. In this study, the focus was on investigating TLP bonding characteristics of ${\gamma}^{\prime}$ precipitation strengthened Ni based superalloy. TLP bonding was carried out with an amorphous filler metal in various bonding conditions, and the microstructural characterization was investigated through optical microscopy (OM) and electron probe micro-analysis (EPMA). The experimantal results explained clearly that bonding temperatures had critical effects on the TLP bonding behaviors, and that isothermal solidication of the joints made at higher temperatures than $1170^{\circ}C$ was controlled by Ti diffusion instead of B.

In the present paper some of the magnetic properties of the nanocrystalline Fe-based magnets produced by an appropriate annealing of their metallic glass precursors are reviewed. These properties are discussed on the grounds of their characteristics measured at the elevated temperatures. It is shown that the effective magnetostriction these magnets display, results from the competition among two contributions of the opposite sign originating from the individual magnetic phases, crystalline phase and the residual glassy matrix in which the nanocrystallites are embedded. It is also shown that at certain conditions the magnets considered expose superparamagnetic behavior and that their isothermal magnetization characteristics can successfully be used to calculate the distribution of the particle volumes. Application of the recently invented new genetic algorithm method, a powerful tool to calculate these distributions is, finally, presented.
