In curing Process of tire, Contact and slip occurs between green tire and curing bladder. The curing process is a critical step in the manufacture of tires. In this investigation, curing bladder shaping is examined using a finite element method. Specifically, a finite element model between the inner part of green tire and the outer part of curing bladder is generated using contact element and curing bladder is generated using incompressible element, The experimental tensile tests are used to get the material properties of bladder rubber on practical conditions. Numerical analyses are performed on two different bladder types, different overall outer diameters of curing bladder and different heights of curing bladder.

An inverter-excited induction generator is discussed in this paper. A brief review of the capacitor-excited induction generator is given and the steady state characteristics of the induction generator excited by an inverter are evaluated. It is shown that the output voltage of the system can be controlled by adjusting the slip, for given operating conditions. The introduction of feedback control makes it possible to control the output voltage stably over the wide range of speed and load. Experimental results are given. The output of the induction generator is then converted into a CVCF(Constant Voltage-Constant Frequency) power source using a PWM inverter with simple control circuit.

A commercial CFD code is used to compute the 3-D viscous flow field within the impeller o( a centrifugal pump. Several preliminary numerical calculations are carried out to determine the influence of the parameters such as the grid systems, the numerical schemes, the turbulence models and the shape of the vaneless diffusers at the design flow rate. The results of the preliminary study are used for the calculation of the off-design flow conditions. The circumferentially averaged results such as the radial and tangential velocities, the exit flow angle, the slip factor, the static pressure and the total pressure are compared with the experimental data at the impeller exit to discuss the influence of the prescribed parameters.

Numerical simulation is performed for microdroplet deposition on a pre-patterned micro-structure. The level-set method for tracking the liquid-gas interface is extended to treat the immersed (or irregular-shaped) solid surface. The no-slip condition at the fluid-solid interface as well as the matching conditions at the liquid-gas interface is accurately imposed by incorporating the ghost fluid approach based on a sharp-interface representation. The method is further extended to treat the contact angle condition at an immersed solid surface. The present computation of a patterning process using microdroplet ejection demonstrates that the multiphase characteristics between the liquid-gas-solid phases can be used to improve the patterning accuracy.

In this study, we present the theoretical, numerical and experimental results of the sink flow from a rotating, circular tank Strikingly enough, when the upper free surface was set with no-slip boundary conditions, the Ekman boundary-layer develops not only above the bottom surface but under the free surface. The sink fluid is coming from the two Ekman layers, and the mass transfer from the bulk, inviscid region is dependent on the rotational speed. It is also remarkable to see that all the fluid gathered along the axis flows through a rapidly rotating fluid column with almost the same size as the hole.

The time-development of the wake vortices of the unsteady viscous flow past a semicircular cylinder is simulated using the vortex particle methods for direct numerical simulations(DNS). The early wake behaviour of the flow behind an impulsively started a semicircualr cylinder is evaluated for a range of Reynolds numbers between 60 and 200 with opposite body configurations respectively. The diffusion scheme based on the particle strength exchange(PSE) is used to account far the viscous effect accurately. And the vorticity generation algorithm to enforce the no-slip boundary conditions is employed. In order to redistribute particles efficiently on the distorted Lagrangian grid the particle distribution technique is adaptively revised, while maintaining the uniform resolution. The results of the simulations are compared to other experimental results.

Recently the micro flows have been received much attention in the applications with regard to Micro Electro Mechanical Systems(MEMS). Such flows are governed by relatively large viscous forces, compared with inetia force, and frequently specified by slip wall boundary conditions. In the present study, computations are applied to investigate the compressible viscous flows through an extremely small channel, and theoretical analyses are conducted using the Fanno flow theory. The axisymmetic, compressible, Wavier-Stokes equations are numerically solved by a fully implicit finite implicit method. The predicted results are validated with previous experimental data available. The results obtained show that for small Reynolds numbers, the viscous frictional force significantly influences the compressible micro channel flows.

An elasticity solution for sandwich plates assembled with non-rigid bonding and subjected to edgewise loads is presented. The solution satisfies the equilibrium equations of the face and core elements, the compatibility equations of stresses and strains at the interfaces, and the boundary conditions. To investigate the effects of bonding stiffnesses on the responses of sandwich plates, numerical evaluations are conducted. The results obtained have shown that the bonding stiffness, up to a certain level, has a strong effect on the plate mechanical response. Beyond this level, the usual assumption of perfect bonding used in classical theories is quite acceptable. An answer to what constitutes perfect bonding is found in terms of the ratio of the core stiffness to the bonding stiffness.

In this paper, the wave propagation in generalized thermo elastic plate immersed in fluid is studied based on the Lord-Shulman (LS) and Green-Lindsay (GL) generalized two dimensional theory of thermo elasticity. Two displacement potential functions are introduced to uncouple the equations of motion. The frequency equations that include the interaction between the plate and fluid are obtained by the perfect-slip boundary conditions using the Bessel function solutions. The numerical calculations are carried out for the material Zinc and the computed non-dimensional frequency, phase velocity and attenuation coefficient are plotted as the dispersion curves for the plate with thermally insulated and isothermal boundaries. The wave characteristics are found to be more stable and realistic in the presence of thermal relaxation times and the fluid interaction.
