Numerical analyses were performed to investigate the characteristics of regenerator in oscillating flow by using moving boundary method and Darcy model. In this work, periodic adiabatic boundary condition was suggested as the boundary condition of adiabatic part so that the effects of the thermal inertia of the wall could be considered. In carrying out numerical analyses, two models were applied and compared. One called isotropic model has the same thermal conductivity in radial and axial directions within a porous media. The other called aeolotropic model has different conductivity in each directions. Isotropic model could not show the advantage of energy reduction which needs to maintain constant wall temperature difference between heater and cooler. But aeolotropic model could simulate the reduction of energy consumption.

A numerical investigation on the three-dimensional laminar natural convection heat transfer in the periodically fully developed PCB channel has been performed. When heat generating blocks mounted on the adiabatic wall make a channel with their facing shrouding wall, the flow inside the channel becomes periodically fully developed. A single module in the periodically fully developed region is chosen for computational domain in order to save computer storage and computational time. The periodic boundary condition is applied in the anlaysis. The effects of the parameters such as the Rayleigh number, the number of the modules, and the height of channel are examined to obtain the optimum condition for the enhancement of the cooling effectiveness. The result shows that the cooling effect is improved with increasing Rayleigh number and channel height, and decreasing the number of the module. The result also indicates that increasing the height of the channel and number of the module is recommended for a limited space.

The energy crisis is culminating for the life of the fossil fuel in the future which is come to end at $30{\sim}40$ years. Moreover above 90% of the energy in our country depend on importing and the crisis is more seγious than it of other countries. So architects devote low energy house research and it means underground space research have become public opinion. But there is not an accurate and utility method calculating the heating load of underground space. In this study it is proposed that the heating load is calculated by setting adiabatic thichness of soil and predicting underground temperature. The prediction of the underground temperature is calculated by the latitude, the level, the distance from sea, the condition of earth surface.

In this study, we consider heat transfer enhancement in laminar channel flow by means of an infinite streamwise array of equispaced identical circular cylinders. This flow configuration can be regarded as a model representing a micro channel or an internal heat exchanger with cylindrical vortex generators. A numerical parametric study has been carried out by varying Reynolds number based on the bulk mean velocity and the cylinder diameter, and the gap between the cylinders and the channel wall. An immersed boundary method was employed to facilitate to implement the cylinders on a Cartesian grid system. No-slip condition is employed at all solid boundaries including the cylinders, and the flow is assumed to be periodic in the streamwise direction. Also, the Prandtl number is fixed as 0.7. For thermal boundary conditions on the solid surfaces, it is assumed that heat flux is constant on the channel walls, while the cylinder surfaces remain adiabatic. The presence of the circular cylinders arranged periodically in the streamwise direction causes a significant topological change of the flow, leading to heat transfer enhancement on the channel walls. The Nusselt number averaged on the channel wall is presented for the wide ranges of Reynolds number and the gap. A significant heat transfer enhancement is noticed when the gap is larger than 0.8, while the opposite is the case for smaller gaps. More quantitative results as well as qualitative physical explanations are presented to justify the effectiveness of varying the gap to enhance heat transfer from the channel walls.

액체연료를 사용하는 풀화재에서 화염불안정성에 대하여 산화제 유속변화와 농도변화의 효과를 알아보기 위해 컵버너 실험을 수행하였다. 연료는 헵탄을 사용하였고, 산화제는 공기에 질소와 이산화탄소를 희석하였다. 소화근처에서 축방향 및 화염 밑면에서 두 가지 형태의 대표적인 불안정성이 관찰되었다. 화염 밑면에서 발생되는 불안정성은 셀, 스윙, 회전 모드로 특성화 할 수 있고, 산화제의 유속이 증가할수록 모든 불활성 기체에서 셀, 스윙 모드에서 회전모드로 천이하였다. 이러한 화염밑면 불안정성에 영향을 미치는 변수들을 파악하기 위하여 초기혼합률, Le 수, 단열화염온도에 대해서도 함께 조사되었다. 이 중 Le 수가 불안정성 모드와 가장 큰 상관관계를 보이고 있지만 보다 정확한 관계를 규명하기 위해서는 더 많은 실험조건에서의 결과가 요구된다. 또한, 소화농도근처의 화염에서는 유속이 작거나 큰 경우에는 축방향 주기적인 진동불안정성이 나타나지 않고, 적절한 산화제 속도 영역에서만 관찰된다. 이는 작은 유속에서는 증발하는 연료속도가 임계유속이하이며, 큰 유속에서는 반응중인 연료유속과 산화제 유속이 유사하기 때문으로 판단된다.
