Several studies of film cooling were accomplished with a secondary flow channel parallel to the main flow. In real turbine blades, however, the direction of the secondary flow channel is generally normal to the main flow. Thus, this study performs a numerical analysis to investigate the effects of the direction of secondary flow on the effectiveness of double-jet film cooling. The blowing ratio is 1 and 2, and the lateral injection angle is $22.5^{\circ}$. The parallel channel case creates a well-developed anti-kidney vortex with a blowing ratio of 1, and the laterally averaged film cooling effectiveness of the parallel channel is enhanced compared to the normal channel. The normal channel shows higher performance with a blowing ratio of 2. Both cases show high film cooling effectiveness. These phenomena can be attributed to a high blowing ratio and flow rate rather than an anti-kidney vortex.

A set of stability equations is formulated for natural convection flows adjacent to a vertical isothermal surface melting in cold pure water. It takes account of the nonparallelism of the base flows. The melting rate is regarded as a blowing velocity at the ice surface. The numerical solutions of the linear stability equations which constitute a two-point boundary value problem are accurately obtained for various values of the density extremum parameter $R=(T_m-T_{\infty})/(T_0-T_{\infty})$ in the range $0.3{\leq}R{\leq}0.6$, by using a computer code COLNEW. The blowing effects on the base flow becomes more significant as ambient temperature ($T_{\infty}$) increases to $T_{\infty}=10^{\circ}C$. The maximum decrease of heat transfer rate is about 6.4 percent. The stability results show that the melting at surface causes the critical Grashof number $G^*$ and the maximum frequency of disturbances to decrease. In comparision with the results for the conventional parallel flow model, the nonparallel flow model has a higher critical Grashof number but has lower amplification rates of disturbances than does the parallel flow model. The spatial amplification contours exhibit that the selective frequency $B_0$ of the nonparallel flow model is higher than that of the parallel flow model and that the effects of melting are rather small. The present study also indicates that the selective frequency $B_0$ can be easily predicted by the value of the frequency parameter $B^*$ at $G^*$, which comes from the neutral stability results of the nonparallel flow model.

A scheduling system is developed for a parallel machine flow shop which reflects the situations of the manufacturing processes in the tire industry. The schedule is generated via simulation using heuristic rules to get satisfaction on such constraints as due dates, demands, work-in-process, process capacity, set-up times and scheduling speed. This system, constructed with relational DB, SQL and C language, consumes less than 10 minutes of PC simulation to handle real size problems.

The problem of scheduling n-jobs on m-uniform parallel machines is considered, in which each job has a release time, a deadline, and a processing requirement. The job processing requirements are allocated to the machines so that the maximum of the load differences between time periods is minimized. Based on Federgruen's maximum flow network model to find a feasible schedule, a polynomially bounded algorithm is developed. An example to show the effectiveness of our algorithm is presented.

The existence and the regularity of the particle trajectory flow X(x, t) along a velocity field u on $\mathbb{R}^n$ are discussed under the BMO-blow-up condition: $${\int}_{0}^{T}{\parallel}{\omega}({\tau}){\parallel}_{BMO}d{\tau}<{\infty}$$ of the vorticity ${\omega}{\equiv}{\nabla}{\times}u$. A comment on our result related with the mystery of turbulence is presented.

The flow and heat/mass transfer in the falling-film of a heat exchanger can be influenced by the motion of the surrounding refrigerant vapor. In this study, the effect of the vapor flow direction on the absorption heat transfer has been investigated for a falling-film helical coil which is frequently used as the absorber of ammonia/water absorption refrigerators. The experiments were carried out for different solution concentration. The heat and mass transfer performance was measured for both parallel and counter-current flow. The effect of vapor flow on the heat and mass transfer is found to be increased with decreasing solution concentration. In the experiments with low solution concentration, whose vapor specific volume is great, the counter-current flow of vapor resulted in uneven distribution of falling-film and reduced the heat transfer performance of the absorber. The direction of the vapor flow hardly affected the thermal performance as the solution concentration became stronger since the specific volume of the ammonia/water vapor was much smaller than that of the water vapor.

Although the dense interconnection datacenter networks (DCNs) (e.g. FatTree) provide multiple paths and high bisection bandwidth for each server pair, the single-path TCP (SPT) and ECMP which are widely used currently neither achieve high bandwidth utilization nor have good load balancing. Due to only one available transmission path, SPT cannot make full use of all available bandwidth, while ECMP's random hashing results in many collisions. In this paper, we present OFPT, an OpenFlow based Parallel Transport framework, which integrates precise routing and scheduling for better load balancing and higher network throughput. By adopting OpenFlow based centralized control mechanism, OFPT computes the optimal path and bandwidth provision for each flow according to the global network view. To guarantee high throughput, OFPT dynamically schedules flows with Seamless Flow Migration Mechanism (SFMM), which can avoid packet loss in flow rerouting. Finally, we test OFPT on Mininet and implement it in a real testbed. The experimental results show that the average network throughput in OFPT is up to 97.5% of bisection bandwidth, which is higher than ECMP by 36%. Besides, OFPT decreases the average flow completion time (AFCT) and achieves better scalability.

The optimal power flow(OPF) problem was introduced by Carpentier in 1962 as a network constrained economic dispatch problem. Since then, the OPF problem has been intensively studied and widely used in power system operation and planning. In these days, OPF is becoming more and more important in the deregulation environment of power pool and there is an urgent need of faster solution technique for on-line application. To solve OPF problem, many heuristic optimization methods have been developed, such as Genetic Algorithm(GA), Evolutionary Programming(EP), Evolution Strategies(ES), and Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO). Especially, PSO algorithm is a newly proposed population based heuristic optimization algorithm which was inspired by the social behaviors of animals. However, population based heuristic optimization methods require higher computing time to find optimal point. This shortcoming is overcome by a straightforward parallel processing of PSO algorithm. The developed parallel PSO algorithm is implemented on a PC cluster system with 6 Intel Pentium IV 2GHz processors. The proposed approach has been tested on the IEEE 30-bus system. The results showed that computing time of parallelized PSO algorithm can be reduced by parallel processing without losing the quality of solution.
