A visualization study of flow characteristics in a mixer using multi-nozzle bubbling was performed. The mixer is filled with liquid glycerin (dynamic viscosity = $1000mPa{\cdot}$ s at $25^{\circ}C$) and convective mixing is induced by air bubbles generated from 9 orifices installed on the bottom of the mixer. To visualize the flow field, PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) system consisting of 532nm Nd:YAG laser, $2k\times2k$ CCD camera and synchronizer is adopted. The bubbles generated with uniform size and frequency form bubble stream, and bubble streams rise vertically without interaction between bubble streams. Mixing efficiency is affected by the height of bubbler and the effective height of bubbler is 20mm from the bottom of the mixer.

Particle image velocimetry is performed in order to analyze flowfield induced by a dielectric barrier discharge plasma actuator. The velocity vector fields are obtained for the two different input voltage conditions; the voltage 3 and 5 kV at the frequency 10 kHz. The obtained flowfields show that the air is accelerated and its speed increase almost linearly over the covered electrode. The amount of momentum induced by the DBD plasma actuator is estimated from the obtained velocity fields, and the estimated values reasonably agree with the previous experiment.

The flow-field of a liquid-metal system is very important for the safety analysis and the design of the steam generator of liquid-metal fast breeder reactor. Dynamic neutron radiography (DNR) is suitable for a visualization and measurement of a liquid metal flow and a two-phase flow in a metallic duct. However, the three dimensional DNR techniques is not enough to obtain the velocity information in the wide channel up to now. In this research, a high speed DNR technique was applied to visualize the heavy liquid-metal flow field in the narrow channel with the HANARO-beam facility. The images were taken with a high frame-rate neutron radiography at 250 fps and analyzed with a Particle Image Velocimetry(PIV) method. The images were compared with the results of the commercial CFX code to study the feasibility of DNR technique for the measuring the heavy liquid-metal flow field. The PIV images could discern the turbulent vortex flow in the two-dimensional narrow channel.

This experiment has been carried out to measure the process of droplet formation between water phase fluid$(PVA\;3\%)$ and organic phase fluid(oil), Internal and External flow fields measured by a Dynamic Micro-PIV method Water-in-oil(W/O) droplets successfully generated at a cross junction and Y junction. Internal and external flow fields were measured when the droplet grew up, stretched and separated.

Simultaneous measurement of velocity and concentration fields in a stirred mixer flow using a combined Stereo-PIV/Planar-LIF technique is carried out. Instantaneous velocity fields and concentration fields represent the local flow characteristics. A baffle is perpendicularly attached to the Wall to remove inactive region which shows very slow dispersion. It is found that the baffle produces tip vortex and breaking the divided streamline, so that mixing efficiency could be increases significantly.

Three-dimensional models of stenosis blood vessels were prepared using a 3D printer. The models included a straight pipe with axisymmetric stenosis and a pipe that was bent $10^{\circ}$ from the center of stenosis. A refractive index matching method was utilized to measure accurate velocity fields inside the 3D tubes. Three different pulsatile flows were generated and controlled by changing the rotational speed frequency of the peristaltic pump. Unsteady velocity fields were measured by a time-resolved particle image velocimetry method. Periodic shedding of vortices occurred and moves depended on the maximum velocity region. The sizes and the positions of the vortices and symmetry are influenced by mean Reynolds number and tube geometry. In the case of the bent pipe, a recirculation zone observed at the post-stenosis could explain the possibility of blood clot formation and blood clot adhesion in view of hemodynamics.

This paper is the fifth investigation on the methods of evaluating flow characteristics in a steady flow bench. In previous studies, several assumptions used in the steady flow bench were examined and it was concluded that the assumption of the solid rotation may lead to serious problems. In addition, though the velocity profiles were improved as the measuring position went downstream, the distributions were far from ideal regardless of the valve angle and evaluation position. The eccentricities were also not sufficiently small to disregard the effect on impulse swirl meter (ISM) measurement. Therefore, the effect of these distribution and eccentricity changes according to the positions needs to be analyzed to discuss the method of flow characteristics estimation. In this context, the effects of evaluation position on the steady flow characteristics were studied. For this purpose, the swirl coefficient and swirl ratio were assessed and compared via measurement of the conventional ISM and calculation based on the velocity by particle image velocimetry(PIV) from 1.75B, 1.75 times bore position apart from the cylinder head, to the 6.00B position. The results show that the swirl coefficients by ISM strictly decrease and the curves as a function of the valve lift become smooth and linear as the measuring position goes downstream. However, the values through the calculation based on the PIV are higher at the farther position due to the approach of the tangential velocity profile to ideal. In addition, there exists an offset effect between the velocity distribution and eccentricity in the low valve lift range when the coefficients are estimated based on the swirl center. Finally, the curve of the swirl ratio by ISM and by PIV evaluation as a function the measuring position intersect around 5.00B plane except at $26^{\circ}$ valve angle.

The study of nitrogen dilution effect on flame stability was experimentally investigated in non-premixed turbulent lifted hydrogen jet with coaxial air. hydrogen gas was used as a fuel and coaxial air was injected to make flame liftoff. And both of the fuel jet and coaxial air velocity were fixed as $u_F$=200 m/s and $u_A$=16 m/s, while nitrogen diluents mole fraction was varied from 0 to 0.2. For the analysis of flame structure and flame stabilization mechanism, the simultaneous measurement of PIV/OH PLIF had been performed. It was found that the turbulent flame propagation velocity increased as decreasing of nitrogen mole fraction. We concluded that the turbulent flame propagation velocity was expressed as a function of turbulent intensity, even though the mole fraction of nitrogen diluents gas was changed.

The Ejector is used to get low pressure, and it has been applied to a lot of industry field like the heat engine, the fluid instrument power plant, the food industry, environment industry etc... because there are not any problem even it is mixed with a any kind of liquid, gas, and solid. The flow characteristics in ejector are investigated by PIV and CFD. The experiment using PIV measurement for mixing pipe’s flow characteristics acquired velocity distribution, .Condition : when mixing pipe’s diameter ratio is 1:1.9, and the flux is $Q_{1}=1.136\;l/s$, $Q_{2}=1.706\;l/s$, $Q_{3}=2.276\;l/s$.
