The Objective of this study is to investigate the effect of internal swiller angle and swirl chamber aspect ratio of nozzle on spray characteristics for application of spray system in micro fabrication process. The macro-spray characterictics such as the spray angle and breakup process were obtained by photographs illustrating atomization. The micro-spray characteristics such as droplet size and axial velocity were measured by using PDA with swirler angle and swirl chamber aspect ratio. The swiller angles were $13.5^{\circ},\;27^{\circ},\;and\;40.5^{\circ}$. The swirl chamber aspect ratios were 1.2, 1.6, and 2.0. It was found that the smaller swirl chamber aspect ratio was, the larger axial velocity and drop size were.

Ejector is an equipment devised for making use of the low pressure occurring from the fast fluid injection and it is a transportation equipment which can obtain vacuum using the kinetic energy of the fluid. This ejector system is, nowadays, widely used for construction machinery, heavy equipments, the cooling and ventilation of electronic devices and for the various fluid transportation and pumps. In this study, it is attempted to perform a numerical analysis and an experiment to find out the characteristics of fluid quantity, velocity and the pressure distribution of the induction pipe by changing the length and the radius ratio of the nozzle of ejector. From the results, it is investigated that the distributions of velocity and pressure of induction pipe attached are changing with the length and the radius ratio of the nozzle. In addition, it is shown that for the small and large ejector, the efficiency is the maximum when the length of the nozzle arrived to the neck of the ejector, however, if it is installed at below or above the neck the efficiency is rather decreased.

A numerical analysis of reactive flow in a MILD(Moderate and Intense Low oxygen Dilution) combustor is accomplished to elucidate the characteristics of combustion phenomena in the furnace with the variation of air fuel ratio. For the smaller magnitude of air injection velocity(10 m/s), the air flow could not penetrate toward upper part of furnace. On the other hand, the air flow suppresses the fuel flow for the case of air injection velocity 30 m/s. The air velocity 18 m/s is corresponding to the stoichiometric air flow velocity, and for that case, the air flows to relatively more upper part of the furnace when compared with the case of air injection velocity 10 m/s. The reaction zone is produced with the previous flow pattern, so that the reaction zone of the air injection velocity 10 m/s is biased to the air nozzle side and for the case of air injection velocity 30 m/s, the reaction zone is inclined to the fuel nozzle side. For the cases with the air injection velocities 16, 18, 20 m/s, the reaction zone is nearly located at the center between air nozzle and fuel nozzle. The maximum temperatures and NOx concentrations for the cases of air injection velocity 16, 18, 20 m/s are lower than the cases with air injection velocity 10, 30 m/s. From the present study, the stoichiometric air fuel ratio is considered as the most optimal operating condition for the NOx reduction.

Diverter is an essential element in gravimetric calibration method of flowmeter. Error of diverter are influenced by flow velocity profile of nozzle outlet, motion velocity of diverter and detecting location. That's why, time detection position of diverter is tuned through repetitive test for minimizing error of diverter. Further the diverter must be compared with the other institutions test since the influence on the accuracy of the flow meter used in the test. In this paper, errors (flow velocity profile of nozzle outlet, motion velocity of diverter and detecting location) of diverter are decreased by produced uni-direction diverter and error of gravimetric calibration system is decreased. Uni-direction diverter is calibrated by gravimetric calibration system with precision flowmeter, the flowmeter is calibrated by pipe prover and other institutions and uni-direction diverter is evaluated. Uni-direction diverter is not influenced by flow velocity profile of nozzle outlet, motion velocity of diverter and detecting location. As a result, Uni-direction diverter can calibrate in wider scope since increasing ratio of maximum and minimum flow rate of uni-direction diverter.

The goal of this study is to show the way to decrease the noise from air nozzles. The variables of this test are the shapes of air nozzles, air flow rate and the distance between a reflection plate and a nozzle tip. This experiment is aimed to find the most appropriate condition to minimize the noise. These are the results. If diameter ratio is more than 12:8, noise level increases by over 10 dB(A) regradless of the distance between a reflection plate and a nozzle and the existence of a reflection plate. And when $L_2$ of a nozzle is 5mm long, noise level rise relatively highly. So, it is strongly recommended that $L_2$ should be manufactured more than 10mm. The reason for a high intensity noise is that when diameter ratio is more than 12:8, the diameter of a nozzle tip($D_2$) turns small drastically, which increases the air velocity. It is assumed that when the vortes is great around the spots where a nozzle hole is suddenly smaller, great turbulent flow increases much noise.

The high-pressurized spray nozzle is used f3r special washing and cutting with strong impact force. The performance of this nozzle, which focused on spray penetration and radial dispersion, was mainly investigated to maximize the momentum and minimize the flow loss. Hence, our experimental research was conducted by changing the aspect ratio ranging from 0 to 3 with nozzle outlet of 1.1. The spray trajectory far high-pressurized water was experimentally investigated using PDPA diagnostics, which was available at spray downstream region. As the spray at upstream near the nozzle exit did not show the improved disintegration. The results showed empirical correlation with regard to non-dimensional axial velocity distribution, spray penetration, and radial spreading rate with photographic visualization.

The local heat transfer rate of an axisymmetric submerged air jet impinging on normal to a heated flat plate was investigated experimentally with varying solidity of mesh screen. The mean velocity and turbulent Intensity profiles of streamwise velocity component were measured using a hot-wire anemometry. The temperature distribution on the heated flat surface was measured with thermocouples. The screen installed in front of the nozzle exit(behind of 35mm) modify the jet flow structure and local heat transfer characteristics. For higher solidity screen, turbulence intensity at core lesion is high and increases the local heat transfer rate at nozzle-to-plate spacings(L/D<6). For larger nozzle-to-plate spacings(L/D>6), however, the turbulent Intensities of all screens tested in this study approach to an asymptotic curve, but the small mean velocity at the core region reduces the local heat transfer rate for high solidity screens.

MILD combustion was first developed to suppress thermal NOx formation in combustor for heating industrial furnaces. In this paper, the effect of co-flow MILD combustor geometry and operating conditions on the formation of MILD combustion was analyzed using 3 dimensional numerical simulation. The numerical simulations were carried out using ANSYS Fluent. The combustion and turbulence flow was modeled using the Eddy Dissipation Concept(EDC) model and realizable $k-{\varepsilon}$ model respectively. The results show that the high temperature region and average temperature decreased due to an increase in the air velocity and decrease the wall thickness of fuel nozzle. In particular, the MILD combustion flame was found to be stable with a combustion flame region at fuel velocity 10 m/s, air velocity 20 m/s, fuel nozzle thickness 1.0 mm, equivalence ratio 0.9, and outlet area ratio 40%.

MILD (Moderate and Intense Low-oxygen Dilution) combustion using oxygen as an oxidizer is considered as one of the most promising combustion technologies for high energy efficiency and for reducing nitrogen oxide and carbon dioxide emissions. In order to investigate the effects of nozzle angle and oxygen velocity conditions on the formation of oxygen-MILD combustion, numerical and experimental approaches were performed in this study. The numerical results showed that the recirculation ratio ($K_V$), which is an important parameter for performing MILD combustion, was increased in the main reaction zone when the nozzle angle was changed from 0 degrees to 15 degrees. Also, it was observed that a low and uniform temperature distribution was achieved at an oxygen velocity of 400 m/s. The perfectly invisible oxy-MILD flame was observed experimentally under the condition of a nozzle angle of $10^{\circ}$ and an oxygen velocity of 400 m/s. Moreover, the NOx emission limit was satisfied with NOx regulation of less than 80 ppm.

The flow characteristics of unventilated dual impinging jets were experimentally investigated. Two nozzles with an aspect ratio of 20 were separated by 6 nozzle widths. The Reynolds number based on nozzle width and nozzle exit velocity was set to 5,000. A Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) was used to measure turbulent velocity components. It was found that, when an impingement plate was installed in the converging region, there was a stagnation region in the inner area between nozzles. However, when it was installed in the combined region, both jets were merged and collided into the plate, showing single-jet characteristics. In addition, at a dual impinging jet, as the distance between a nozzle and an impingement plate decreased, the spanwise turbulent intensity at the plate increased.
