This paper presents the property of the Squeeze Film Damper (SFD) using Magneto-Rheological fluid (MR fluid). The damping property of a SFD for a flexible rotor system varied according to vibration mode. MR fluid is known as a functional fluid with controllable apparent viscosity of the fluid by applied magnetic field strength. When the MR fluid is applied in the SFD, the SFD using MR fluid can effectively reduce vibrations of the flexible rotor in a wide range of rotating speed by control of the applied magnetic field strength. To investigate in detail the SFD using MR fluid, the SFD to support one mass was constructed and its performance was experimentally investigated in the present study. The damping property of the SFD using MR fluid has viscous damping by Newtonian fluid, but not Coulomb friction by Bingham fluid. Therefore, The system damped by the SFD can be considered as a linear system.

The present study investigates the effect of the shear rate-dependent thermal conductivity of non-Newtonian fluids on the heat transfer enhancement in a pipe flow. An axially-constant heat flux boundary condition was adopted in the thermal fully developed region. The present analytical results of Nusselt numbers for various non-Newtonian fluids show heat transfer enhancement over those of a shear rate-independent thermal conductivity fluids. The present analytical results showed good agreement with the previous experiments which excluded the temperature-dependent viscosity effect on heat transfer. This study also proposes the use of a shear rate-dependent thermal conductivity fluids in the design of a heat exchanger for heat transfer enhancement as well as reduction of fouling.

To product multi-grade oil like engine oil, a sort of mineral base oil is mixed with a fundamental additive liquid package and a polymer liquid as viscosity index improver in order to improve the lubricating property of oil. That is, engine oil is the mixture of more than two fluids. In this paper, it will be systematically organized the governing equation describing non-Newtonian thermo-hydrodynamic lubrication related with the mixture of incompressible fluids based on the principle of continuum mechanics. Then, in order to find how the thermal analysis effect on the bearing performance lubricated with the mixture of multi-fluids, it will be compared to the performances between the mixture of each liquid to be blended and multi-grade engine oil as a single fluid in a high speed journal bearing. It is found that, in the case of lower viscosity oil, the difference of pressure distribution between the above two cases turns out to be existed, even if the load capacity is same level.

An analysis is made to study the solute transport in a Casson fluid flow through an annulus in presence of oscillatory flow field and determine how this flow influence the solute dispersion along the annular region. Axial dispersion coefficient and the mean concentration expressions are calculated using the generalized dispersion model. Dispersion coefficient in oscillatory flow is found to be a function of frequency parameter, Schmidt number, and the pressure fluctuation component besides its dependency on yield stress of the fluid, annular gap and time in the case of steady flow. Due to the oscillatory nature of the flow, the dispersion coefficient changes cyclically and the amplitude and magnitude of the dispersion increases initially with time and reaches a non - transient state after a certain critical time. This critical value varies with frequency parameter and independent of the other parameters. It is found that the presence of inner cylinder and increase in the size of the inner cylinder inhibits the dispersion process. This model may be used in understanding the dispersion phenomenon in cardiovascular flows and in particular in catheterized arteries.

Since Winslow (1) has reported an electro - theological (ER) effect which features remarkable and reversible changes in the properties of the fluid due to an imposed external electric field, numerous applications of ER fluids in mechanical devices, such as clutches, control valves, active dampers, and etc. have been proposed to improye dramatical ly their performances (2,3). When the external electric field is imposed to the ER fluid, it behaves as a Bingham fluid, displaying a field dependent yield shear stress which is widely variable. Without the electric field, the ER fluid has a reversible and constant viscosity so that it flows as a Newtonian fluid. Another salient feature of the ER fluid is that the time required for the variation is very short (< 0.001 sec) (4-6). These attractive.characteristics of the ER fluid provide the possibility of the appearance of new engineering technology , for instance, an active vibration control system. Recently, the application of the ER fluid to rotor-bearing systems has been also initiated.

It is attempted, in this study, to analyze the movement of the fluidity of polar magnetic fluid and to relate Newtonian fluid with the Inlet Length of infinity plates when distance between parallel plates is L. A numerical analysis is performed for the variation of inlet length when magnetic effect parameter and polar effect parameter which give special advantages to magnetic fluid are increased. From the result of numerical analysis, we confirmed that the inlet length shortens as the flux around the center axis is accelerated and the flux around the surface of a wall is controlled as the magnetic effect parameter and the polar effect parameter are increased.

The rheological properties of exopolysaccharide(EPS-R) produced by marine bacteria Hahella chjuensis KCTC 2395 was investigated. EPS-R solution showed a characteristic non-Newtonian behavior fluid properties. In aqueose dispersions of EPS-R 1%, consistency index(K) and flow behavior index(n) were 1,410 cp and 0.73. EPS-R solution was pseudoplastic fluid by power-low model. Rheological propertie of EPS-R was found to be influenced by the concentration of salt, pH, temperature and ionic compounds.

유한요소법을 이용하여 애뉼라다이 팽창현상을 수치 해석학적으로 분석하였다. 이보 고는 계속적인 연구의 일부로써 비탄성 비뉴토니안 유체인 지수법칙형의 유체에 대한 모사 이다. 이지수법칙형의 유체는 간단하나 고분자 공정 연구에 많이 쓰이는 구성식으로써, 분석 결과는 환형압축체의 두께는 지수법칙 지수에 비례하여 증가하였다. 높은 전단응력 감소유 체의 경우 두께는 증가하지 않고 감소하였다. 비등온 유체 및 여러 다른 형태의 압출형에 대한 수치해석 결과도 예시하였다.

In this study, a smart material applicable to speed bumps was developed using low-cost starch and waterbased suspensions, and their properties were investigated. Viscosity and shear stress according to the shear rate was measured by a rheometer to observe shear thickening behavior according to starch concentration. The shear thickening phenomenon and applicability to speed bumps were identified macroscopically via drop weight test and bike driving test, measuring the vibration after impact with a driving speed of 5-25 km/h. As a result of the viscosity measurement, shear thickening occurred after the shear thinning region at the beginning, and the critical strain causing the shear thickening phenomenon decreased as the concentration of starch increased. Also, the viscosity and shear stress increased significantly with the increase of the starch concentration. As a result of the drop weight test and the bike driving test, the suspension was changed to a solid-like state in a short time, and the impact energy was absorbed in the fluid. The shear thickening phenomenon easily occurred as the concentration of the fluid and the applied impact (velocity) increased. Therefore, it can be proposed the development of a smart speed bump material that operates in the range of 5-25 km/h with a Non-Newtonian fluid based on water and starch.
