The injected liquid does not break-up instantly after injection for diesel engine. There is some unbroken portion, which is the liquid core(The length of liquid core is called the break-up length) in the spray. If the liquid core is longer than the depth of the bowl in the small DI diesel engine, the liquid core impinges on the surface of the piston. Once the liquid core impinges on the surface, it cannot ignite or burn rapidly and thus prolongs burning time with a degradation in thermal efficiency. The break-up length of a diesel spray in a compressure vessel was measured by an electric resistance method, A voltage was applied between the nozzle and screen, bar, needle electrode inserted at various axial and radial positions into atomizing sprays. As a result, a current flows not only in the region of liquid core but also through the droplets of the spray. It is found that the break-up length measured with screen electrode is overestimated. The break-up length of the spray is found to be proportional to the square root of the density ratio of fuel and surrounding gas. The break-up length of the spray decreases as the injection pressure and the back pressure increase.

A specially designed injector using electric conductivity was used to measure the liquid film thickness accurately. The measurement conducted through the precise calibration, accuracy is demonstrated in comparison with the previous theory and the results using other measurement method. The tendency of liquid film thickness for geometric parameters was examined by the precise measurement. The variation of air core and stability are examined through the visualization of the formation of air core in swirl chamber and the variation of liquid film thickness by the time.

The atomization characteristics of an annular liquid (water) sheet of small radius with a core gas (air) flow were studied. Different sizes of annular gaps (0.2, 0.4 and 0.8 mm) were tested to find the effect of liquid sheet thickness on SMD. The inner diameter of the gas port for the core gas flow was 4 mm. Cross-section averaged SMD was measured for various liquid and gas velocities. Regions of the SMD decrease with the increase of the liquid velocity always existed regardless of the liquid sheet thickness. This attributes to the transition of the flow patterns of spray and also to the aerodynamic interaction between the atomizing gas and the ripples on the liquid sheet surface.

For future multi-core processors, 3D integration is regarded as one of the most promising techniques since it improves performance and reduces power consumption by decreasing global wire length. However, 3D integration causes serious thermal problems since the closer proximity of heat generating dies makes existing thermal hotspots more severe. Conventional air cooling schemes are not enough for 3D multi-core processors due to the limit of the heat dissipation capability. Without more efficient cooling methods such as liquid cooling, the performance of 3D multi-core processors should be degraded by dynamic thermal management. In this paper, we examine the architectural impact of cooling methods on the 3D multi-core processor to find potential benefits of liquid cooling. We first investigate the thermal behavior and compare the performance of two different cooling schemes. We also evaluate the leakage power consumption and lifetime reliability depending on the temperature in the 3D multi-core processor.

Core disruptive accidents have been investigated at Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute(KAERI) as part of the work to demonstrate the inherent and ultimate safety of conceptual design of the Korea Advanced Liquid Metal Reactor(KALIMER), a 150 MWe pool- type sodium cooled prototype fast reactor that uses U-Pu-Zr metallic fuel. In this study, a simple method and associated computer program, SCHAMBETA, was developed using a modified Bethe-Tait method to simulate the kinetics and thermodynamic behavior of a homogeneous spherical core over the period of the super-prompt critical power excursion induced by the ramp reactivity insertion. Calculations of the energy release during excursions in the sodium-voided core of the KALIMER were subsequently performed using the SCHAMBETA code for various reactivity insertion rates up to 100 S/s, which has been widely considered to be the upper limit of ramp rates due to fuel compaction. Benchmark calculations were made to compare with the results of more detailed analysis for core meltdown energetics of the oxide fuelled fast reactor. A set of parametric studies were also performed to investigate the sensitivity of the results on the various thermodynamics and reactor parameters.

The characteristics of a photonic crystal fiber sensor with reuleaux triangle are studied by using the finite element method. The wavelength sensitivity of the designed optical fiber sensor is related to the arc radius of the reuleaux triangle. Whether the core area is solid or liquid as well as the refractive index of the liquid core contributes to wavelength sensitivity. The simulation results show that larger arc radius leads to higher sensitivity. The sensitivity can be improved by introducing a liquid core, and higher wavelength sensitivity can be achieved with a lower refractive index liquid core. In addition, the specific channel plated with gold film is polished and then analyte is deposited on the film surface, in which case the position of the resonance peak is the same as that of the complete photonic crystal fiber with three analyte channels being filled with analyte. This means that filling process becomes convenient with equivalent performance of designed sensor. The maximum wavelength sensitivity of the sensor is 10200 nm/RIU and the resolution is $9.8{\times}10^{-6}RIU$.

A new hollow fiber filled with the lower refractive index liquid as core constructs a liquid core optical fiber(LCOF). The LCOF have been used as colorimetric cell to determine elements Cr and Cu in the presence of 70%- 50% ethanol or 50% dioxane aqueous solution, based on colored complex of Chromium(VI) with Diphenycarbazid(DPC) and copper with Chromaurd S(CAS) respectively. The sensitivity (1/ng/ml) of calibration curve of Cr and Cu are 0.052, 0.017 over the range 0 - 25, 0 - 24(ng/ml) respectively. The Cr in the animal gum and Nation Standard of China are determined with recoveries of 94 - 102%.

After reviewing the principle of a new display utilizing bent-core liquid crystals, we summarize the advantages and problems of this display. Then we will introduce our effort to overcome these problems mostly by synthesizing new materials. We obtained a variety of newly synthesized compounds showing the $SmAP_R$ phase. Mixing was effective to decrease and widening the temperature range of the $SmAP_R$ phase.

Experimental and theoretical studies on the air-assist coaxial atomizer have been continuously carried out for a long time. But now the importance of the theoretical study is tending to increase as with the development of computer. This study is concerned to the spray modelization, especially, the instability of the liquid jet surrounded by the air stream which flows with high velocity. To study the phenomena of the break up, we used the linear theory based on the classical Kelvin-Helmholtz theory for capillary wave at a simple interface and we investigated the variation of liquid core radius. As a result, we obtained that the drop diameter and the variation of the liquid core radius predicted by using our model are reasonable.
