The purpose of this paper, was to compare its result with both the settler of inclination plate and the settler of stick fin through the pilot test to know optimized interval of fin. According to intervals of fin, We get most optimized interval of fin in laboratory is inclination plate with $60^{\circ}$ and wide of fin with 50 mm, interval of fin with 150 mm. The result of laboratory showed 67.6~70.6%, 70.4~74.2% for the settler of inclination plate, the settler of inclination plate stick fin. The sedimentation efficiency of the settler of inclination plate stick fin showed 2.8% higher than the sedimentation efficiency of the settler of inclination plate. From now on, Inclination plate settler stick fin requirement in study.

Comparison between performance of a plate fin and that of a modified plate fin is investigated as a function of the position, the non-dimensional width and height of wings as well as the non-dimensional fin length using a two-dimensional separation of variables method. The ratio of the incremental rate of heat loss to that of the area of a modified plate fin is also presented as a function of the height of wings. The modified plate fin is made by attaching the wings to upper and lower sides of a plate fin. One of the results shows that performance of a modified plate fin is more improved as the wings approach left (higher) thermal reservoir.

In this paper,to know sedimentation efficiency compared with sedimentation efficiency's experiment result by general and inclination plate settler, its and fin stick of inclination plate. Experiment result is inclination plate settler increase sedimentation efficiency's 6.96% than general settler, When fin stick of inclination plate is the optimum condition of one side, inclination plate's angle $60^{\circ}$, fin's width 67mm, fin's interval 200mm, sedimentation efficiency of many experimental condition increase 6.63% than inclination plate settler. A studdy on the site plottage through the result, Water inclination plate settler of the present's application reduce 30% of its than general settler. According to the above statements, fin stick of inclination plate's sedimentation efficiency is 0.95 times of inclination plate settler's. Concluding remarks, Fin stick of inclination plate reduce 28.5% of its than inclination plate settler.

For the study of an effect that fin thickness and shape of heat exchanger have on the elevation of heat transfer efficiency, we make models of plate fin type heat exchanger and louvered fin type heat exchanger which was given a transformation of fin thickness in plate f)n type heat exchanger and louvered fin type heat exchanger which are often used now. And the effect of fin thickness on pressure drop and characteristics of heat transfer was experimented and analysed when air velocity and temperature of plate heating was a variable. The results of experiment shows below. Pressure drop shows larger in louvered fin type exchanger than in plate fin type exchanger, size of pressure drop shows like this order that fin thickness is 0.3mm, 0.2mm, 0.1mm. Mean heat transfer coefficient shows higher in louvered fin type exchanger than in plate fin type exchanger, size of mean heat transfer coefficient by fin thickness shows same in both case in louvered fin type heat exchanger and plate fin type exchanger like this order that fin thickness is 0.1mm, 0.2mm, 0.3mm.

Heat loss, fin effectiveness and efficiency of a plate fin are investigated as a function of non-dimensional fin length and Biot number using a two-dimensional separation of variables method. The value of temperature of the left side is set to be different from that of the right side for this plate fin to satisfy the real physical condition. Also temperature distribution within this plate fin is listed. One of the results shows that the fin can be considered to be useful in view of fin effectiveness on the given range of Biot number when non-dimensional fin length is larger than 3.

Underwater torpedo has control fin with very low aspect ratio due to launching from limited size of cylindrical torpedo tube. If the aspect ratio of control fin of underwater vehicle is very low three-dimensional flow around control fin largely reduces control forces. In this study, the end plate was applied to reduce the three-dimensional flow effects of partially movable control fin of underwater vehicle. Through numerical simulations the flow field around control fin was examined with and without end plate for different flap angles. The pressure, vorticity, lift and torque on the control fin were analyzed and compared to experiments. The comparison have shown a reasonable agreement between numerical and experimental results and the effect of end plate on a low aspect ratio control fin. When the end plate was attached to the movable control fin, the lift increased and the actuator shaft torque did not significantly change. As this means less consumption of the actuator shaft torque compared to the control fin that has the same control force, the inner actuator capacity can be reduced and energy consumption can be saved. Considering this, it is expected to be effectively applied to the control fin design of underwater vehicles such as torpedoes.

The present research was experimentally performed to analyze the effect of delta-wing vortex generators(DWVG) on the heat transfer of fin surface of the plate fin-oval tube. The local heat transfer coefficient of the fin surface for four kinds of DWVG's arrangement was measured by the naphthalene sublimation technique for Reynolds numbers ranging from 2000 to 3200. The results showed that the heat transfer of the plate fin-oval tube can be significantly enhanced by DWVG for relatively low Reynolds numbers.

Fin conduction not only enhances heat transfer to the ambient air but also increases tube-to-tube conduction. The latter is known to deteriorate the heat exchanger performance. Heat conduction between neighboring tubes thorough the fin is numerically investigated for accurate performance analysis of plate finned-tube heat exchangers. Governing equations for arbitrary plate fin are solved and the temperature distribution is obtained using the principle of superposition. Analysis is made using finite element method by changing the shapes of fin, the arrangements of tubes and the fin parameter mD. It is found that tube-to-tube conduction is significant when mD is small or the distance between neighboring tubes is small.

The present experimental study investigates the impact of porous fins on the pressure drop and heat transfer characteristics in plate-fin heat exchangers. Systematic experiments have been carried out in a simplified model of a plate-porous fin heat exchanger at a controlled test environment. Comparison of performance between the porous fins and the conventional louvered fins has been made. The experimental results indicate that friction and heat transfer rate are significantly affected by permeability as well as porosity of the porous fin. The porous fins used in the present study show a similar air-side performance to the louvered fin. The correlations of friction and modified j-factor are also given for the design of the plate-porous fin heat exchanger.
