This study presents development of digital particle holographic system and its application to spray field to measure three-dimensional velocities and sizes of spray droplets. A double exposure hologram recording system with synchronization system for time control was established and digital holograms can be recorded in a short time interval. To process recorded holograms, the correlation coefficient method was used for focal plane determination of particles. To remove noises and improve the quality of holograms and reconstructed images, the Wiener filter was adopted. The two-threshold and image segmentation methods were used in binary image transformation. For particle pairing, the match probability method was adopted. The developed system was applied to spray field and three-dimensional velocities and sizes of spray droplets were measured. The measurement results of digital holographic system were compared with those made by laser instruments, PDPA(Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer), which proved the feasibility of in-line digital particle holographic system as a good measurement tool for spray droplets.

An experimental investigation has been conducted to study the spray and combustion characteristics using the air-assisted twin fluid atomizer. Axial mean and fluctuating velocity components as well as drop-size distributions in non-reaction spray were measured with a nonintrusive phase doppler technique. Droplet number density distributions were also visualized using high speed CCD camera. Locations of spray and flame boundaries are obtained by direct photographic method. It is confirmed that at the fixed fuel flow rate, the increase of the atomizing air flow causes improvements on both spray and combustion characteristics under stable flame conditions. Internal group combustion modes where flame is located inside the spray boundary are observed to exist in the upstream region of higher droplet number density.

The spray characteristics were investigated to study the effect of shroud air with swirl flow on simplex type fuel injector for gas turbine combustor. The spray tests using PDA(Phase Doppler Anemometry) technique were conducted to compare the performance of simplex atomizer with $0^{\circ},\;40^{\circ},\;50^{\circ}$ swirled-shroud air conditions. In this study. we found that the injector with strong swirled-shroud air has the better atomization Performance compared with weaker swirled and non-swirled conditions.

This paper presents the comparison of prediction accuracy of hybrid models. To obtain the experimental results fur comparing with the numerical results, the macroscopic and microscopic structures of the hollow-cone spray such as spray development process, spray penetration and the distribution of mean droplet size are investigated by using a shadowgraph technique and phase Doppler particle analyzer. Also, the numerical researches using various hybrid models are performed. LISA model and WAVE model are used for the primary breakup, and TAB, DDB, and RT model are used for the secondary breakup.

Spray characteristics of an injector employed in mono-propellant hydrazine thrusters were investigated by PIV(particle image velocimetry) and PDA(phase Doppler anemometry) techniques. The instantaneous plane images captured by PIV measurement were examined in order to judge the pass-fail criteria of spray injection performance according to the specific pressure supplied. PDA technique was also applied to measure the velocity and droplet size of spray which were not obtainable by PIV measurement. The objective of this experimental study is the evaluation of the injector performance which may be utilized for the design of brand-new injector through the clear understanding of spray characteristics.

A new ultrasonic pulse-echo technique was developed and described for vibration measurement of the suspension assembly in hard disk drives. The method is based upon the difference in magnitude of two consecutive reflection waves from a moving object(suspension), while the traditional ultrasonic vibrometer uses the phase shift of the reference wave and the reflection wave. A cone-shape delay line is designed to access the small structure. A simple mathematical model is presented and analyzed with experimental results to show the feasibility of the method. The advantages of this ultrasonic vibration measurement method are relatively high resolution, low cost, and ease of implementation comparing with the Laser Doppler vibrometer.

The evolutionary structure of tip vortices has been investigated with a two-dimensional LDV system for a plain and a slotted blade, respectively. To analyze the effect of slots which bypasses a part of main stream into the tip face, velocity profiles, vortex sizes, their displacements and turbulence intensities during one revolution of the rotor were measured by the phase averaging process. For the comparison of circumferential velocity components of the plain blade and the slotted blade, the peak values of the slotted blade were lower than those of the plain blade, and axial velocity components of the slotted blade were considerably larger than those of the plain blade. The slotted rotor blade enlarged the core size and made the vortex delayed compared with those of the plain blade at the same wake ages. Turbulence profiles had peaks inside the core radii and decayed gradually in the radial direction of vortex coordinate. Also, using a quasi 3-D LDV measurement technique the budget of turbulence kinetic energy was analyzed in radial direction of the vortex core.

The evolutionary structure of a tip vortex in the initial period have been investigated by the two-dimensional LDV system. Circumferential and axial components of mean velocities, their turbulences and Reynolds stresses were measured by the phase averaging technique at seven different wake ages within one revolution of the rotor. Core growth was also analyzed. It was resulted that circumferential velocity components showed a Rankine combined vortex shape and their circulation profiles viewed in the radial direction were close to the n = 2 model of Vatistas' algebraic formula, while axial velocity components seemed to have the Gaussian profiles In these measured ranges with the base width of three times of core radii. Peaks of circumferential velocities and core radii showed distinct asymmetric behaviors before the wake age of $150^{\circ}$ over inboard and outboard sides of the slipstream, but they became symmetric afterwards. Turbulence profiles which had two peaks Inside the core radii in the earlier wake age were also changed to single peaks after $150^{\circ}$. These trends imply that the tip vortex was barely mature at this wake age.

This paper presents the error performance of 16 star-QAM with diversity reception in microcell systems in the presence of additive white Gaussian noise(AWGN) and cochannel interference. The differential detection of 16 star-QAM is split into phase detection and amplitude detection. This technique can reduce the degradation of error performance which is due to fading and the complexity of receiver. Diversity reception is proposed to improve the degradation of error performance due to fading. Equal gain and maximal ratio combinings were adopted for the phase detection and the amplitude detection, respectively. The performance of 16 star-QAM was evaluated for various of Rician factor K, maximum Doppler frequency f_DT, signal to cochannel interference ratio and diversity branch L.
