  • In this study, a CFD methodology is employed to address the problem of the prediction of the flow in a T-junction. An Unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) approach has been selected for its low computational cost. Moreover, Unsteady Reynolds Navier-Stokes methodologies do not need complex boundary formulations for the inlet and the outlet such as those required when using Large Eddy Simulation (LES) or Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS). The results are compared with experimental data and an LES calculation. In the past, URANS has been tried on T-junctions with mixed results. The biggest limit observed was the underestimation of the oscillatory behavior of the temperature. In the present work, we propose a comprehensive approach able to correctly reproduce the root mean square (RMS) of the temperature directly downstream of the T-junction for cases where buoyancy is not present.

  • This paper presents an analysis of microwave device component. An H-Plane waveguide component with arbitrary shape is analyzed using finite element method(FEM) cooperated with boundary element method(BEM). The finite element method(FEM) is applied to the junction region and the boundary element method(BEM) to the waveguide region. For the application of BEM in the waveguide structure, a ray representation of the waveguide Green's function is used. The proposed technique was applied to the analysis of the waveguide inductive junction to compare the numerical result with the result of the mode matching technique. The comparison showed good agreements between the two results. Transmitted powers were also computed in T-junction waveguides for the various shape of the junction area.

  • In this paper, a small duplexer is designed and implemented using a H-plane T-junction and Transmitting/Geceiving filte with a dual mode cavity resonator for Ku-band. Transmitting(TX) filter is designed at center frequeny 12.5 GHz and Receiving(RX) filter, at center frequency 14.5 GHz. Both filters have a 100 MHz bandwidth. This duplexer is reduced to about 40% by the conventional duplexer of cavity bandpass filter structure in size. Operating characteristics of duplexer is optimized in order not to distors matching characteristics of each filter when interfaced to a H-plane T-junction. Consequently, the responses of filter with H-plane T-junction nearly coincide with that of filter itself.

  • The T-junction exists widely in industrial engineering, especially in nuclear power plants, which plays an important part in nuclear power reactor thermal-hydraulics. However, the existing prediction models of the liquid entrainment are mainly based on the small branches or small breaks while there are a few researches for large branches (d/D > 0.2). Referring to the classical models about the onset of liquid entrainment of the T-junction, most of previous models regard liquid as ideal working fluid and ignore surface tension. This paper aims to study the effect of surface tension on the liquid entrainment, and develops an improved model based on the reasonable assumption. The establishment of new model employs the methods of force analysis, dimensional analysis. Besides, the dimensionless Weber number is adopted innovatively into the model to show the effect of surface tension. What is more, in order to validate the new model, three kinds of working fluids with different surface tensions are creatively adopted in the experiments: water, silicone oil and ethyl alcohol. The final results show that surface tension has a nonnegligible effect on the onset of liquid entrainment in large branch T-junction. The new model is well matched with the experimental data.

  • 본 논문에서는 non-radiative dielectric (NRD) guide를 이용한 듀플렉서를 설계하였다. 설계된 듀플렉스는 두 개의 gap-coupled 필터와 T-junction으로 구성되어 있다. Gap-coupled 필터의 설계에는 차단 주파수 영역 등가회로를 이용하였으며 T-junction은 30dB 이상의 반사손실을 갖도록 최적화하여 두 가지의 형태로 설계하였다 위의 설계과정을 통하여 1% 대역폭, 0.1dB ripple, 37.7 및 38.3 GHz의 중심주 파수를 갖는 듀플렉서를 설계하였다. 두 가지 형태의 결합부를 갖는 듀플렉서에 대해 시뮬레이션하여 응답특성을 비교한 결과 듀플렉서의 응답특성이 원하는 결과에 근접하게 나옴을 확인하였다.

  • In this paper, we have designed the duplexer using non-radiative dielectric(NRD) guide in millimeter wave band. The designed duplexer is composed of two stepped-impedance filters and T-junction. Stepped-impedance filters we designed with an equivalent circuit model of evanescent waveguide and the T-junction is optimized to minimize return loss of -20 dB or more. The characteristics of duplexer show good agreements with the expected results.

  • The purpose of the research was to examine the relative effect of binocular disparity and T-junction on the determination of object's belongingness in brightness perception when regular repeating structure was present in the stimuli. Using Howe's stimuli, the variation of White illusion stimuli, Experiment 1 found that object's belongingness was mainly determined by monocular information (T-junction as well as regular repeating structure) rather than by binocular disparity when both informations on belongingness were inconsistent. Experiment 2, using the stimuli employing only regular repeating structure and binocular disparity, found that object's belongingness was not determined by any single information. These results imply that when the regular repeating structure and binocular disparity are inconsistent on object's belongingness, T-junction plays an important role in the determination of the object's belongingness and that the brightness perception is affected by it.
