A method is proposed in this paper to estimate the workability of self-compacting concrete (SCC) in different mixing conditions with different mixers and mixing volumes by recording the mixing process based on deep learning (DL). The SCC mixing videos were transformed into a series of image sequences to fit the DL model to predict the SF and VF values of SCC, with four groups in total and approximately thirty thousand image sequence samples. The workability of three groups SCC whose mixing conditions were learned by the DL model, was estimated. One additionally collected group of the SCC whose mixing condition was not learned, was also predicted. The results indicate that whether the SCC mixing condition is included in the training set and learned by the model, the trained model can estimate SCC with different workability effectively at the same time. Our goal to estimate SCC workability in different mixing conditions is achieved.

In order to investigate the mixing of dissimilar grades during the arbitrary grade transition in bloom caster, a computational model has been developed. The model is fully transient and consists of two sub models, which account for mixing in the bloom tundish, mixing in the strand. The developed model was verified using concentration histories measured on 1 : 1 scale bloom tundish water model. The result of numerical model showed good agreement with the experimental results of water model. By using this numerical model, the mixing of dissimilar grades in bloom caster has been simulated. As that result, the characteristics of the steel mixing in the bloom tundish and strand was showed and the amount of the intermixed grade bloom was predicted.

In order to consider the effect of Karman vortex for mixing, mixing indices are calculated for 4 models of micro channel flows driven from the combinations of a circular cylinder and a oscillating stirrer. And their results are compared to that of a simple straight micro channel flow(model I). The mixing rate is improved 5.5 times by Karman vortex (model II) and 11.0 times by the stirrer(model III) respectively. In case of successive mixing by the cylinder and the stirrer(model IV), $27\%$ of shortening the channel length for the complete mixing as well as 1.37 times improvement of mixing efficiency then model III. And then, variation of mixing indices are much stable comparing with the others. Thus, it is found that the Karman vortex plays a good role as a pre-mixing method. The D2Q9 Lattice Boltzmann methods are used.

The present study is focused on the small scale turbulent mixing processes in the scalar field. In order to deal with molecular mixing in turbulent flow, the linear eddy model is addressed. In each realization, the molecular mixing term is implemented deterministically, and turbulent stirring is represented by a sequence of instantaneous, statistically independent rearrangement event called by triplet map. The LEM approach is applied with relatively simple conditions. The characteristics of scalar mixing and PDF profiles are addressed in detail.

Various types of equation for mixing rule on permittivity of mixture have been proposed, but none of these is not perfect because of the inconsistency between the actual geometrical configuration and the basic model for calculation. Serial model and parallel model are lower and upper extremes of mixing manner, the apparent permittivity of any other type of mixture stay between these two extreme states. For the random mixture of the stumpy fine particles, customarily the logarithmic mixing rule has been applied. But, the logarithmic mixing rule does not give the proper value of permittivity in low or high mixing rate of constituent. The author proposed the new mixing rule that gives better consistency with measured value in whole mixing range compared to the logarithmic rule. In this paper, a desirable refinement on the equation proposed in the previous paper is made to adapt to thr configuration image of actual compound and then the equation has been expanded to the complex permittivity to apply the mixing rule on the dissipative materials cases.

구획실 내 프로판 가스화재에 대해 Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS)를 이용한 수치계산을 수행하고 실험과의 비교를 통해 적용된 연소모델 예측성능을 평가하였다. 검토된 연소모델은 FDS v5.5.3의 혼합분율 연소모델과 FDS v6.6.3의 Eddy Dissipation Concept (EDC) 모델이며, EDC 모델에서 화학반응기구는 1-step Mixing Controlled, 2-step Mixing Controlled, 3-step Mixing Controlled 및 Mixing Controlled 반응과 유한화학반응이 혼합된 3-step Mixed 반응을 적용하였다. 구획실 내부의 온도에 대해서는 각 연소모델들 간의 예측성능 차이는 그다지 크지 않음을 확인하였다. 연소모델 차이에 의한 $O_2$와 $CO_2$ 농도에 대한 예측성능 차이보다는 CO에 대한 예측결과 차이가 크게 나타났다. CO 농도에 대해서는 EDC 3-step Mixing Controlled 모델이 가장 높게 예측하며 혼합분율 연소모델은 실험보다는 낮게 예측하였다. EDC 3-step Mixed 모델이 가장 예측성능이 좋았지만 EDC 2-step Mixing Controlled 모델도 충분히 합리적인 수준으로 예측하고 있음을 확인하였다. EDC 1-step Mixing Controlled 모델에 기존에 제안된 CO 수율을 적용할 경우 CO 농도에 대해서 너무 과소 예측하며 CO 예측 정확도를 높이기 위해 수율을 높이면 $CO_2$ 농도에 대한 합리적인 예측이 어려워지는 문제점이 있었다.

We have developed a cylindrical mixing layer model of a stellar jet including cooling effect in order to understand an optical emission mechanism along collimated high velocity stellar jets associated with young stellar objects. The cylindrical results have been calculated to be the same as the 2D ones presented by Canto & Raga(1991) because the entrainment efficiency in our cylindrical model has been obtained to be the same value as the 2D model has given. We have discussed the morphological and physical characteristics of the mixing layers by the cooling effect. As the jet Mach number increases, the initial temperature of the mixing layer goes high because the kinetic energy of the jet partly converts to the thermal energy of the mixing layer. The initial cooling of the mixing layer is very severe, changing its outer boundary radius. A subsequent change becomes adiabatic. The number of the Mach disks in the stellar jet and the total radiative luminosity of the mixing layer, based on our cylindrical calculation, have quite agreed with the observations.

We consider the subdiagonal bilinear model and ARMA model with subdiagonal bilinear errors. Sufficient conditions for geometric ergodicity of associated Markov chains are derived by using results on generalized random coefficient autoregressive models and then strict stationarity and ,a-mixing property with exponential decay rates for given processes are obtained.

MARS-KS, a domestic regulatory confirmatory code of Republic of Korea, had been developed by integrating RELAP5/MOD2 and COBRA-TF. The integration of COBRA-TF allowed to extend the capability of MARS-KS, limited to one-dimensional analysis, to multi-dimensional analysis. The use of COBRA-TF was mainly focused on subchannel analyses for simulating multi-dimensional behavior within the reactor core. However, this feature has been remained as a legacy without ongoing maintenance. Meanwhile, MARS-KS also includes its own multidimensional component, namely MULTID, which is also feasible to simulate three-dimensional convection and diffusion. The MULTID is capable of modeling the turbulent diffusion using simple mixing length model. The implementation of the turbulent mixing is of importance for analyzing the reactor core where a disturbing cross-sectional structure of rod bundle makes the flow perturbation and corresponding mixing stronger. In addition, the presence of this turbulent behavior allows the secondary transports with net mass exchange between subchannels. However, a series of assessments performed in previous studies revealed that the turbulence model of the MULTID could not simulate the aforementioned effective mixing occurred in the subchannel-scale problems. This is obvious consequence since the physical models of the MULTID neglect the effect of mass transport and thereby, it cannot model the void drift effect and resulting phasic distribution within a bundle. Thus, in this study, the turbulence mixing model of the MULTID has been improved by means of the inter-channel mixing model, widely utilized in subchannel analysis, in order to extend the application of the MULTID to small-scale problems. A series of assessments has been performed against rod bundle experiments, namely GE 3X3 and PSBT, to evaluate the performance of the introduced mixing model. The assessment results revealed that the application of the inter-channel mixing model allowed to enhance the prediction of the MULTID in subchannel scale problems. In addition, it was indicated that the code could not predict appropriate phasic distribution in the rod bundle without the model. Considering that the proper prediction of the phasic distribution is important when considering pin-based and/or assembly-based expressions of the reactor core, the results of this study clearly indicate that the inter-channel mixing model is required for analyzing the rod bundle, appropriately.

In the chemical, mineral and electronics, mechanically stirred tanks are widely used for complex liquid mixing processes. The paper present results from a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model for the mixing tank in casing process. We used CFD software, FLUENT(Fluent, Inc, Lebanon, NH, version 6.2). A species transport model was used to model the problem. The flow patterns in a mixing tank, 1.6 m in diameter and 2.0 m in height, were studied using CFD. Numerical analysis results show that improved mixing tank was reduced low speed flow region and turbulent region in internal flow of mixing tank.
