This paper deals with the flow characteristics of air-water two-phase flow in a vertical tube of 10mm I.D. and 600mm in length at an adiabatic condition. The obtained experimental data were covered with the liquid superficial velocity ranging from 0.095m/s to 2.56m/s. and the gas superficial velocity ranging from 0.032m/s to 21.08m/s. The effects of the gas and liquid superficial velocity on the flow pattern transitions, frictional pressure drop, and film thickness and gas-liquid interface roughness were also examined. It was found that the film thickness increased and the liquid film wave length was more longer with the liquid superficial velocity $j_L$ increasing at $j_G$ constant. It was also showed that the frictional pressure drops were experienced in three regions. namely increasing region(bubbly flow), decreasing region (Taylor bubble and slug flows) and re-increasing region (annular flow).

Hot-firing tests were performed on the third sub-scale gas generator for development of a 75 ton-class liquid rocket engine. This paper deals with the analysis results of low-frequency combustion instabilities that were encountered during combustion tests of the gas generator. The low-frequency pressure fluctuations seem to be related to chamber pressure and pressure drops through oxidizer/fuel injectors.

The characteristics of flow pattern transitions in a horizontal cocurrent gas-liquid flow have been investigated by means of a statistical analysis of instantaneous pressure drop curves at an orifice. The dimensionless intensity of pressure drop fluctuation shows a sudden change during the course of flow transitions, indicating that it may be a good measure to identify the flow regime transitions. The probability density function of the curves feature a unique pattern depending upon the flow regimes and the statistical properties of the PDF also have particular ranges for each flow regime. In conclusion, the statistical analysis of instantaneous pressure drops may be a powerful tool for predicting the flow regime transitions.

The performance of fuel cell is enhanced with increasing reaction surface. Narrow flow channels in flow plate cause increased pumping power. Therefore it is very important to consider the pressure drops in the flow channel of fuel cell. Previous research for pressure drop for micro channel of fuel cell was focused on effects of various configuration of flow channel without electrochemical reaction. It is very important to know pressure loss of micro flow channel with electrochemical reaction because fluid density in micro channel is changed due to chemical reaction. In this paper, it is investigated that the pressure drops in micro channel of various geometries at anode and cathode with electrochemical reaction and compared them to friction coefficient (fRe), velocity, pressure losses for corresponding non reacting flow channel. The results show that friction factors for cold flow channel could be used for parallel and bended flow channel for flow channel design of fuel cell. In the other hand, pressure drop for serpentine flow channel is the lowest among flow channels due to bypass flow across gas diffusion layer under reacting flow condition although its pressure drop is highest for cold flow condition.

Field measurements have revealed that the pressure drop over a borehole during drilling of a slim oil well or a well with a long reach can depend significantly on the rotation speed of the drill pipe. An accurate prediction of the annular frictional pressure drop is therefore important for conditions where the annular clearance is small. An experimental study was carried out to study solid-liquid two phase flow in a slim hole annulus. Annular velocities of carrier fluids varied from 0.2 m/s to 1.5 m/s. The carrier fluids which were utilized included tap water and CMC water solutions. Pressure drops and average flow rates were measured for the parameters such as inner-pipe rotary speed, carrier fluid velocity, hole inclination and particle injection rate. For both water and CMC solutions, the higher the concentration of the solid particles is, the larger the pressure gradients become.

Cases of cardiac arrests due to cardiovascular ailments have increased recently., portable Current portable resuscitators which can be automatically supply oxygen operated by the pressure of supplied oxygen without manual or electronic actuators are now widely used in emergency worldwide. However, reductions in Pressure drop characteristics through the extended use of this type of resuscitator, however, is are not well-known described. This paper describes the reduction in pressure loss drop performance of the various holes in within the flow control disc of with various hole size of the portable resuscitators using on breathing resistance through the CFD simulation, and suggests the an optimum optimal design of the hole shapes for the minimization of alteration in order to minimize this pressure drops.

Peristaltic mass transfer of fluid in a channel with standing wall oscillations is analyzed. Averaged nonlinear Navier-Stokes equations of motion are examined for a wide range of Reynolds numbers and external pressure drops. Nonpropogating wall oscillations with relatively big amplitudes essentially increase the liquid flow. Most effective intensifying of mass transfer occurred for low Reynolds numbers.

Incompressible turbulent flow in a single cavity of the stepped multi-cavity labyrinth seal is numerically analyzed to investigate an effect of the shaft speed on the leakage. SIMPLER algorithm is used to solve governing equations, and low-Reynolds k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model as outlined by Launder and Sharma is adopted to predict turbulent flow. Pressure drops for the cavity with and without the groove are evaluated for four different Reynolds numbersand three different shaft speeds.

The heat transfer and thermal stress analysis was performed on the ceramic core of the matrix-type recuperator. The efficiency was calculated as 34% to 65%. Triple-pass arrangement provided higher preheated air temperatures, lower thermal stresses and the increase of pressure drops. Higher temperature gradients and maximum peak stresses appeared on the corners of the ceramic core. The effect of boundary conditions was significant and the use of spring-load sealing mechanism could release thermal stresses.
