Underfloor air distribution (UFAD) is an air distribution strategy for providing ventilation and space conditioning in buildings. UFAD systems use the underfloor plenum beneath a raised access floor to provide conditioned air through floor diffusers that create a vertical thermal stratification during cooling operations. Thermal stratification has significant effects on energy, indoor air quality, and thermal comfort performance. The purpose of this study was to characterize the influence of a linear bar grille diffuser on thermal stratification in both interior and perimeter zones by developing Gamma-Phi based prediction models. Forty-eight simulations were carried out using a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technique. The number of diffusers, the air flow supply, internal heat gains, and solar radiations varied among the different cases. Models to predict temperature stratification for the tested linear bar grille diffuser have been developed, which can be directly implemented into dynamic whole-building simulation software such as EnergyPlus.

Evaluation of elliptic blending turbulence model (EBM) together with the two-layer model, shear stress transport (SST) model and elliptic relaxation model (V2-F) is performed for a better prediction of thermal stratification in an upper plenum of a liquid metal reactor by applying them to the experiment conducted at JNC. The algebraic flux model is used for treating the turbulent heat flux. There exist much differences between turbulence models in predicting the temporal variation of temperature. The V2-F model and the EBM better predict the steep gradient of temperature at the interface of thermal stratification, and the V2-F model and EBM predict properly the oscillation of temperature. The two-layer model and SST model fail to predict the temporal oscillation of temperature.

Simpson and Hunter (974) 의 포텐셜 에너지 anomaly(V)를 이용하여 한국 남해의 여름과 겨울철 성층 변동 및 수온과 염분이 성층의 강도에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 수온 및 염분은 국립수산과학원이 1999년 8월, 2000년 2월에 실시한 정선 관측 자료이다. 8월(여름)은 남해의 외해측에서 V 값이 높게 나타나는 반면, 2월(겨울)의 경우 연안역 가까운 곳에서 높게 나타났다. 8월은 대기의 가열 현상 및 쓰시마난류의 유입 등이 V 가 증가하는 주요 인자이며, 2월은 대기 냉각 및 남해연안수의 확장이 표 저층간의 성층의 세기를 변화시키는 요인으로 작용한다. 전 시기에 걸쳐 수온이 염분보다 성층의 세기 변화에 큰 영향을 미치며, 8월에는 수온과 염분이 성층의 세기를 증가시키는 작용을 하는 반면, 2월에는 염분이 성층의 세기를 감소시키는 작용을 한다.

In order to see the stratification related to the heat flux In Deukryang Bay, the oceanographic data on July 12, 1994 and the meteorological data of Kohung and Kwangju meteorological stations were analysed. The temperature durerences between the sea surface and the near bottom were 1~3 ton spring tide (July 12, 1994) In Deukryang Bay. The temperature anomalies were high about 3t during summer In 1994. These mean that the non mixing was not effective In destroying the stratification due to the sea surface heating by the solar radition, even though it was on spring tide. The maximum solar radiation was about 600 ly/day, which was the value of the same date of oceanographic observation. The sensible and the latent heat flux which are 0~100 ly/day were not so varied during summer. The absorbed heat flux through the sea surface was mostly lost by the back radiation. which ranges are about 0~-400 ly/day. The dimensionless mixing parameter related to the buoyancy flux was 5~150$\times$$10^{-5}$. The efficiency of tidal mixing to destroy the stratecation was 0.4~0.6%.

In this paper, the unsteady two dimensional model for the thermal stratification in the pressurizer surge line of PWR plant has been proposed to numerically investigate the heat transfer and flow characteristics. The dimensionless governing equations are solved by using the Control Volume Formulation and SIMPLE (Semi-Implicit Method for Pressure Linked Equations) algorithm. The temperature profile of fluids and pipe wall with time are shown when the thermal stratification occurs in the horizontal pipe. The numerical result shows that the maximum dimensionless temperature difference is about O.514 between hot and cold section of pipe wall at dimensionless time 1,632.

In this study, we numerically investigated the thermal stratification in solar seasonal thermal storage tanks. The vertical in/out flows were unsuitable for the thermal stratification in a large scale. The effect of an aspect ratio (AR) on the thermal stratification was investigated. When AR was less than 2, water adheres and flows along the upper wall due to buoyance and the surface effect. Thereafter, hot water flows down and a large scale vortex occurs in entire tank. For high AR, jet flows ejected from the inlet pipe impinges to the opposite wall and splits. The divided flows create two vortex flows in the upper and lower regions. These different flows strongly influence temperature and thermal stratification. The thermal stratification was evaluated in terms of the thermocline thickness and degree of stratification. Compared to ARs, the maximum degree of stratification was obtained with AR of 5 having the minimum thermocline thickness.

낙동강에서 다기능보의 건설과 하도의 준설로 인해 수심은 더욱 깊어졌으며 유속이 느려져 지체시간 또한 증가하였다. 이로 인해 수심이 깊은 일부구간에는 성층현상이 발생하였으며, 또한 녹조현상을 가중시키는 원인이 되었다. 본 연구에서는 저수지와 하구언에서 성층현상 재현성이 입증된 3차원 수리 수질 해석모형인 EFDC 모형을 낙동강에 적용하여 성층현상의 재현성을 평가하고자 하였다. 낙동강 수온 및 DO 성층화 현상을 재현하기 위해 낙동강 중 하류부에 EFDC 모형을 구축하고 성층화에 민감한 주요 매개변수에 대한 민감도 분석을 수행하였으며, 민감도 분석을 통해 최적의 매개변수를 선택하여 성층화를 재현하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다양한 성층교란 시나리오 분석의 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

진해ㆍ마산만에서 수온, 염도 및 DO농도를 연직방향으로 1년동안 측정하였다. 관측된 수온 및 염도 자료를 이용하여 성층화 특성을 분석하고, DO농도의 연직변화를 성층화 특성 및 저질오염도와 관련하여 분석하였다. 분석결과, 진해ㆍ마산만의 수온 성층화는 4월 이전에 시작되어 10월경에 종료되는 양상을 보이고 있는 것으로 판단되었다. 또한, 1998년 4월 연직방향의 평균 염도변화는 3.9(equation omitted) 정도로 증가되고, 1998년 8월 9.3(equation omited), 10월 4.3(equation omitted) 정도가 유지되어 가을철에도 염도 성층이지속되고 있는 것으로 파악되었다. 한편, DO 농도는 성층화가 시작되는 4월을 기점으로 연직방향 평균 DO농도변화도 2.6(mg/L)에서 6월 8.3(mg/L), 8월 5.9(mg/L), 9월 7.24(mg/L), 10월4.4(mg/L)으로 명확한 성층화 양상을 보이고 있다. DO 농도변화는 전체적으로 해역의 오염도와 밀접한 관련이 있으나. 성층화 기간동안 연직방향 DO 농도편차가 크게 나타나고 있는것은 수온 및 염도성층에 의한 표 저층간의 물질교환 저해에 의한 영향도 직접적인 요인으로 작용하고 있은 것으로 파악되었다.

A numerical analysis of thermal stratification in the upper plenum of the MONJU fast breeder reactor was performed. Calculations were performed for a 1/6 simplified model of the MONJU reactor using the commercial code, CFX-13. To better resolve the geometrically complex upper core structure of the MONJU reactor, the porous media approach was adopted for the simulation. First, a steady state solution was obtained and the transient solutions were then obtained for the turbine trip test conducted in December 1995. The time dependent inlet conditions for the mass flow rate and temperature were provided by JAEA. Good agreement with the experimental data was observed for steady state solution. The numerical solution of the transient analysis shows the formation of thermal stratification within the upper plenum of the reactor vessel during the turbine trip test. The temporal variations of temperature were predicted accurately by the present method in the initial rapid coastdown period (~300 seconds). However, transient numerical solutions show a faster thermal mixing than that observed in the experiment after the initial coastdown period. A nearly homogenization of the temperature field in the upper plenum is predicted after about 900 seconds, which is a much shorter-term thermal stratification than the experimental data indicates. This discrepancy is due to the shortcoming of the turbulence models available in the CFX-13 code for a natural convection flow with thermal stratification.

This investigation concerns thermal stratification of the water due to the temperature difference (${\Delta}T=T_{\infty}-T_i$) between the mean temperature of the water in the test tank (1m wide, 1m high, 2.1m long) and the temperature of the inflow water into the tank; flow rate of circulating water and height of the sink diffuser in the test tank. The additional objectives was to observe a stratification phenomena near an interface by measuring the velosities and the temperature difference and investigate an availabilities of the better effective hot water through establishing thermocline near an interface around the bottom of the tank. Following results were obtained through the experiments. 1. When the flow rate was constant and the temperature difference (${\Delta}T=T_{\infty}-T_i$) between the mean temperature of the flow in the test tank and the temperature of the inflow water increased by 5.6, 9.5, 13.5($^{\circ}C$), obtained the better effective advantage of hot water and the stress near an interface increased gradually. 2. When the ${\Delta}T=T_{\infty}-T_i$ was constant and flow rate increased by 4.0, 4.8, 6.4, 8.0 (LPM), obtained the better effective advent age of hot water and the mean stress near an interface increased gradually. 3. When the height of the sink diffuser was 25cm from tank bottom in comparison with 50cm, obtained the better effective advantage of hot water and the mean stress near an interface increased.
