Uniformity of velocity is quite important design points of a vertical laminar flow type clean room. In the present paper, flows in a room with a bottom pannel are numerically simulated by using a low-Reynolds number $k-{\epsilon}$ model, and a new flow model of the pannel are suggested. Resistance coefficient of the pannel and size of the exhaust channel show considerable effects on flow pattern and uniformity of flow on the bottom. Reflection coefficient also has important roles. A possibility to obtain the uniform and unidirectional flow is tested by adjusting the distribution of resistance coefficient of the pannel. Such a numerical simulation of the flow will be a good method to get optimun design parameters.

Heat transfer performance variation of a condenser caused by non-uniform distribution of air flow was investigated using a numerical simulation method. A heat exchanger used for a outdoor unit of a commercial heat pump system and represented by a numerical model was selected. Non-uniform profile of air-velocity was constructed by measuring the air velocity at various locations of the outdoor unit. Simulation was conducted for various refrigerant circuits and air flow conditions. Simulation results show that the heat transfer capacity was reduced depending on the air-flow rate and the refrigerant circuit configuration. It is also shown that the capacity reduction rate is increased as the average air velocity decreases.

An analysis has been conducted of the flow characteristics and pumping performance of a thermopneumatic micropump with electrically conducting fluid. In the present study, considered is a thermopneumatic micropump for electrically conducting fluids with electromagnetic resistance alternately exerted at the inlet and outlet by alternately applied magnetic fields. A model of Prescribed Deformation is used for the motion of the membrane. Here, the pumping performance of the micropump and flow characteristics of the electrically conducting fluid are investigated in the range of Hartmann number less than 30. The current numerical study shows that the net flow rate through the micropump is almost proportional to the strength of the applied magnetic field.

The importance of intake system can not be overstressed in the recent heavy duty commercial vehicle design. The basic requirements of intake system are to have less flow resistance and better air cleaning performance which have direct effects on the performance and service life of engine. In order to improve the performance of engine intake system, the flow phenomena in the intake system should be fully understood. With readily availble CFD code, the numerical analysis becomes the more reliable tools for flow optimization in recent design work. In this research, flow field in the intake system was analyzed by STAR-CD, the 3-D computational fluid dynamics code. Especially, the flow inside of air cleaner was thoroughly analyzed. Pressure distribution and velocity profile in the air cleaner and intake duct was obtained. Having the dust seperated from incoming air at the expense of less pressure drop is the ultimate goal for the research.

The purpose of this study was to reduce the airborne noise emitted from the package air-conditioner(PAC) therefore, the optimim design melthods of the fans and the flow-paths were investigated experimentally through the anlaysis of the nose problems caused by the conventional PAC system, and the fan performance tests and the systme resistance measurements of the parts which belong to the flow-paths of the PACwere used to study these noise problems. As a results, through the optimized flow-paths of the new PAC system with the lowset system resistance, and by adjusting and matching the operating point of each fan to each PAC system, the airborne noise reductions from the new indoor PAC and the outdoor one were achieved upto 5.5 dBA and 6.6 dBA respectively in overall noise level as compared with the conventional PAC system.

In this study, flow analyses of a vehicle at driving were carried out after each installation of a tuning part, specifically the bonnet air ducts, the rear spoiler, and the rear diffuser. The study models were designed to comprise a total of eight cases in which each of the three parts were mounted individually or all together in vehicles. Assuming that the vehicle were driven with an average high speed of 100 km/h, the speed and pressure around the vehicle were obtained using CFD when driving. The rear diffuser that becomes the most effective among the three mounting parts has a major role in reducing air resistance.

The white plume from the cooling tower can be generated by mixing between discharging hot and humid air and cold air outside. This causes various problems such as icing, traffic disturbances, and fire factors in the vicinity, moreover it can also damage the image of a company. Various methods can be used to prevent white plume, one of them is to install a heat exchanger at the outlet of the cooling tower so that the heat exchanger transfers as much heat as possible to lower the temperature. Therefore the air flow path in the cooling tower should be optimized. Installation of the filler can be used to make the air flow better, thus we investigate the effect of filler on the air flow using CFD method. The pressure and velocity profile in the cooling tower could be acquired by the calculations. The filler made the velocity of the air entering the heat exchanger uniform this was because high flow resistance of the filler suppresses the generation of eddy in the cooling tower. But the total air pressure drop increased about 2 times with filler because the pressure drop by the filler accounted for about 60% of the total pressure drop.

가솔린엔진의 출력제어를 위해 나비형(butterfly-type) 스로틀밸브가 응용되고 있다. 그러나 기존의 나비형 스로틀밸브는 밸브 후방에서 발생하는 강한 와류현상으로 인해 매우 큰 흡입 유로의 저항을 유발하게 된다. 이러한 유로저항은 엔진의 체적효율(volumetric efficiency)을 떨어뜨려 궁극적으로 엔진의 출력과 효율에 부정적인 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구에서는 CFD수치해석 기법을 이용하여 기존 나비형 스로틀밸브의 문제점 개선을 위해 제안한 벤투리형(venturi-type) 가변스로틀밸브(VGTV)의 공기역학적 작동특성에 관해 알아보았으며, 본 장치의 유량과 저항계수($K_L$)의 변화특성 분석을 통해 가솔린엔진의 체적효율 개선효과를 평가하는데 연구의 목적을 두고 있다. 본 연구를 통해 기존의 나비형 스로틀밸브에 비해 새롭게 제안된 벤투리형 가변스로틀밸브의 유로저항이 평균 49.0%정도 개선된다는 사실을 알 수 있었으며, 이는 엔진의 체적효율과 출력에 매우 큰 영향을 줄 것으로 기대된다.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of hydrocolloids on the changes in physical properties of a model ice cream. The model ice cream contained water, sugar, skin milk powder, com oil, and 4 different hydrocolloid stabilizers (gelatin, pectin, hydroxyethylstarch, locust bean gum), was manufactured in a batch type freezer. The following physical characteristics of ice cream were examined: flow behavior, overrun, air cell size, ice crystal size, and melt resistance. With regard to flow behavior, all of aged mixes had a lower apparent viscosity relative to the mix before aging, and ice cream mix containing locust bean gum had the highest viscosity. Air cell size was observed to range from 20 to $38\;{\mu}m$, and ice cream with locust bean gum showed the largest size. There was an inverse correlation between overrun and air cell size. The ice crystal sizes of all samples ranged from 25 to $35\;{\mu}m$. Ice cream with added pectin contained the smallest ice crystal size, which was significantly difference from other stabilizers (p<0.05), and resulted in superior melt resistance with increased melting time compared to other samples.

Recent aerodynamic and acoustic studies of VPI(velopharyngeal insufficiency) are non-invasive and safety, therefore, many researchers have used it to diagnose the hyper/hyponasality and articulation disorders of cleft palate patients. The purpose of this study was to estimate mainly the oropharyngeal air pressure and over all air flow in cleft lip and palate patients. The pressure-collecting catheter was positioned in the oropharyngel cavity around tongue base. Twelve adult control group and three cleft lip & palate patients were participated to this experimentation. Aerophone II was used to measure peak air flow, mean air flow, phonatory airflow, phonatory efficiency and resistance. The results were as follows: 1) Airflow of cleft lip ＆ palate patients group were higher than those of control group. Fricative sounds /s/ and /s'/ showed the statistic significance of mean airflow and volume data. 2) Intraoral air pressure of cleft lip ＆ palate patients was lower than those of control group.
