In the present study a detailed examination of various porous media models for predicting filtration efficiency and pressure drop of diesel particulate filter (DPF), such as sphere-in-cell and constricted tube models, are attempted. In order for demonstrating their validities of correct estimation on permeability, geometry of property configurations common in commercial cordierite DPFs are correlated to the porous media flow models, and validations of predicted filtration efficiencies due to the use of different unit collectors are made with experiments. The result shows that the porosity, pore size and permeability of cordierite DPF can be successfully correlated by Kuwabara flow field with correction factor of 0.6. The unit collector efficiency predicted by sphere-in-cell model agrees very well with measurements in accumulation mode, whereas that by constricted tube model with significant prediction error.

Considering the characteristics of industrial machines that lack vehicle-induced wind, forced convection by a cooling fan is mostly required. Therefore, numerical analysis of an engine room is usually performed to examine the cooling performance in the room. However, most engine rooms consist of a number of parts and components at specific positions, leading to high costs for numerical modeling and simulation. In this paper, a new methodology for three-dimensional computer-assisted design simplification was proposed, especially for the pile of components and parts at the engine room outlet. A porous media model and regression analysis were used to derive a meta-model for imitating the flow rate reduction at the outlet by the pile. The results showed that the fitted model was reasonable considering the coefficient of determination. The final numerical model of the engine room was then used to simulate the velocity distribution by changing the mass flow rate at the outlet. The results showed that both velocity distributions were significantly changed in each case and the meta-model was valid in imitating the flow rate reduction by some piles of components and parts.

Generally, thermal analysis of spent fuel storage cask has been conducted using the porous media and effective thermal conductivity model to simplify the structural complexity of spent fuel assemblies. As the fuel assembly is composed of two regions; active fuel region corresponding to UO2 pellets and unactive fuel region corresponding to the top and bottom nozzle, the heat transfer performance can be influenced depending on porous media application at these regions. In this study, numerical analysis on concrete storage cask of spent fuel was performed to investigate heat transfer effects for two cases; one was porous media application only to active fuel region(case 1) and the other one was porous media to whole length of fuel assembly(case 2). Using computational fluid dynamics code, the three dimensional, 1/4 symmetry model was constructed. For two cases, maximum temperatures for each component were evaluated below the allowable limits. For the case 1, maximum temperatures for fuel cladding, neutron absorber and baskets inside the canister were slightly higher than those for the case 2. In particular, even though the helium flows with low velocity due to buoyant forces occurred at the top and bottom of unactive fuel region, treating only active fuel region as the porous media was ineffective in respect of the heat removal performance of concrete storage cask, implying a conservative result.

In current investigation, a novel beam finite element model is formulated to analyze the buckling and free vibration responses of functionally graded porous beams resting on Winkler-Pasternak elastic foundations. The novelty lies in the formulation of a simplified finite element model with only three degrees of freedom per node, integrating both C⁰ and C¹ continuity requirements according to Lagrange and Hermite interpolations, respectively, in isoparametric coordinate while emphasizing the impact of z-coordinate-dependent porosity on vibration and buckling responses. The proposed model has been validated and demonstrating high accuracy when compared to previously published solutions. A detailed parametric examination is performed, highlighting the influence of porosity distribution, foundation parameters, slenderness ratio, and boundary conditions. Unlike existing numerical techniques, the proposed element achieves a high rate of convergence with reduced computational complexity. Additionally, the model's adaptability to various mechanical problems and structural geometries is showcased through the numerical evaluation of elastic foundations, with results in strong agreement with the theoretical formulation. In light of the findings, porosity significantly affects the mechanical integrity of FGP beams on elastic foundations, with the advanced beam element offering a stable, efficient model for future research and this in-depth investigation enriches porous structure simulations in a field with limited current research, necessitating additional exploration and investigation.

다공질 매체의 거동은 선형 열역학적 다공 탄성 거동, 선형 다공 점성-탄성 거동, 다공소성 거동, 그리고 다공 점성-소성 거동 등으로 모형화가 된다. 또한 시간에 따라 그 거동 양상이 복합적인 형태를 띈다. 다공질 매체는 간극 속의 구성물들이 서로 상대속도를 가지며 상호 작용을 하기 때문에 coupling 효과를 고려한 다공질 매체의 변형 거동에 대한 구성모델의 개발이 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 균질하고 등방성을 가진 재료들로 이루어진 다공질 매체의 3차원적인 거동을 포화도에 따라 완전 포화시와 부분 포화시로 나누어 연속체 다공 역학의 뼈대 위에 지배방정식들을 구한다. 또한 다공질 매체의 거동을 이해하고 해석할 수 있는 구성모델을 개발할 수 있는 토대를 마련한다. 본 연구가 확장될 경우 다공질 매체의 정확한 거동 해석과 변형량 예측이 이루어질 수 있을 것이다. 특히 도시 고형화 폐기물 매립지반의 3차원적인 거동을 해석할 수 있는 기초가 마련되어 비균질하고 이방성을 가진 재료들로 이루어진 다공질 매체 지반의 활용이 활발하게 이루어 질 것으로 기대된다.

The physics of the plume-induced shock and separation particulary at a high plume to exit pressure ratio and supersonic speeds up to Mach 3.0 with aid without a passive control method, porous extension, were studied using computational techniques. Mass-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with the RNG k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model were solved using a fully implicit finite volume scheme and a 4-stage Runge-Kutta method. The courol methodology for plume-afterbody interactions is to use a perforated wall attached at either the nozzle exit or the edge of the missile base. The Effect of porous wall length on plume interference is also investigated. The computational results show the main effect of the porous extension on plume-afterbody interactions is to in the plume from strongly underexpanding during a change in flight conditions. With control, a change in porous extension length has no significant effect on plume interference.

The distributions of mass flow rate and pressure are major factors to deside the performance of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). These factors are affected by channel configuration of air plate. In this paper. structural analysis is performed to investigate deformation of porous media. Two kind of models are suggest for flow analyses. Deformed porous media and undeformed porous media are considered for air plate model. The Numerical flow analysis results with deformed porous media and undeformed porous media had some discrepancy in pressure distribution. The pressure and velocity in a working condition are numerically calculated to predict the performance of the air plates. Distributions of the parameters in the PEMFC are analyzed numerically under steady-state conditions.

A Monte Carlo simulation based on Potts model in a three dimensional lattice was studied to analyze and design microstructures in porous sintered compacts such as porosity, pore size, grain (particle) size and contiguity of grains. The effect of surface energy of particles and the content of additional fine particles to coarse particles on microstructure development were examined to obtain fundamentals for material design in porous materials. It has been found that the larger surface energy enhances sintering (necking) of particles and increases contiguity and surface energy does not change pore size and grain size. The addition of fine particles also enhances sintering of particles and increases contiguity, but it has an effect on increment of pore size and grain size. Such a simulation technique can give us important information or wisdom for design of porous materials, e.g., material system with high surface energy and fine particle audition are available for higher strength and larger porosity in porous sintered compacts with applications in an automobile.

PURPOSES : A finite difference model considering snow melting process on porous asphalt pavement was derived on the basis of heat transfer and mass transfer theories. The derived model can be applied to predict the region where black-ice develops, as well as to predict temperature profile of pavement systems where a de-icing system is installed. In addition, the model can be used to determined the minimum energy required to melt the ice formed on the pavement. METHODS : The snow on the porous asphalt pavement, whose porosity must be considered in thermal analysis, is divided into several layers such as dry snow layer, saturated snow layer, water+pavement surface, pavement surface, and sublayer. The mass balance and heat balance equations are derived to describe conductive, convective, radiative, and latent transfer of heat and mass in each layer. The finite differential method is used to implement the derived equations, boundary conditions, and the testing method to determine the thermal properties are suggested for each layer. RESULTS: The finite differential equations that describe the icing and deicing on pavements are derived, and we have presented them in our work. The framework to develop a temperature-forecasting model is successfully created. CONCLUSIONS : We conclude by successfully creating framework for the finite difference model based on the heat and mass transfer theories. To complete implementation, laboratory tests required to be performed.
