For simulation of three-dimensional turbulent flow with LES and DNS takes much time and expense with current available computing resources. It is nearly impossible to simulate turbulent flow with high Reynolds number. So, the emerging alternative is the Grid computing for needed computation power and working environment. In this study, the CFD code was parallelized to adapt it for the parallel computing under the Grid environment. In the first place, the Grid environment was built to connect the PC-Cluster facilities belong to the different institutions using communication network system. And CFD applications were calculated to check the performance of the parallel code developed for the Grid environment. Although it is a fundamental study, it brings about a important meaning as first step in research of the Grid.

A new numerical algorithm using equal order linear finite element and fractional step method has been developed which is capable of analyzing unsteady fluid flow and heat transfer problems. Streamline Upwind Petrov-Galerkin (SUPG) method is used for the weighted residual formulation of the Navier-Stokes equations. It is shown that fractional step method, in which pressure term is splitted from the momentum equation, reduces computer memory and computing time. In addition, since pressure equation is derived without any approximation procedure unlike in the previously developed SIMPLE algorithm based FEM codes, the present numerical algorithm gives more accurate results than them. The present algorithm has been applied preferentially to the well known bench mark problems associated with steady flow and heat transfer, and proves to be more efficient and accurate.

Numerical analysis has been carried out to investigate laminar convective heat transfer in a tube for supercritical water near the thermodynamic critical point. Fluid flow and heat transfer are strongly coupled due to large variations of thermodynamic and transport properties such as density, specific heat, viscosity, and thermal conductivity near the critical point. Heat transfer characteristics in the developing region of the tube show transition behavior between liquid-like and gas-like phases with a peak in heat transfer coefficient distribution near the pseudocritical point. The peak of the heat transfer coefficient depends on pressure and wall heat flux rather than inlet temperature and Reynolds number, Results of the modeling provide convective heat transfer characteristics including velocity vectors, temperature, and the properties as well as the heat transfer coefficient. The effect of proximity to the critical point is considered and a heat transfer correlation is suggested for the peak of Nusselt number in the tube.

Fluid model based numerical analysis is done to simulate a low damage etch back system for 20 nm scale semiconductor fabrication. Etch back should be done conformally with very high material selectivity. One possible mechanism is three steps: reactive radical generation, adsorption and thermal desorption. In this study, plasma generation and transport steps are analyzed by a commercial plasma modeling software package, CFD-ACE+. Ar + $CF_4$ ICP was used as a model and the effect of reactive gas inlet position was investigated in 2D and 3D. At 200~300 mTorr of gas pressure, separated gas inlet scheme is analyzed to work well and generated higher density of F and $F_2$ radicals in the lower chamber region while suppressing ions reach to the wafer by a double layer conducting barrier.

Basalt originates from volcanic magma and flood volcanoes, a very hot fluid or semifluid material under the earth's crust, solidified in the open air. Basalt is a common term used for a variety of volcanic rocks, which are gray, dark in colour, formed from the molten lava after solidification. Recently, attention has been devoted to continuous basalt fibers (CBF) whose primary advantage consists in their low cost, good resistance to acids and solvents, and good thermal stability. In order to investigate reinforcement effect, this paper did FEM analysis with shell element. The result were as follows; BCF deck plate did elastic behavior to 450 kN, reinforcement effect of basalt fiber (BF) was less. But BCF's perpendicular deflection occurred little about 23 mm comparing with RC deck plate in load 627 kN. Stiffness was very improved by basalt fiber reinforcement.

This paper describes the performance characteristics of flow and structure in the post-chamber and nozzle. Using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique, the stress and compressible flow fields in the downstream of the post chamber and nozzle were numerically calculated. Besides, the stress characteristics at the wall of post-chamber and nozzle were investigated under different thickness (2mm, 5mm and 10mm) of the nozzle wall. The stress pattern demonstrates that the strength of nozzle wall having 10mm is safer than that of 5mm or 2mm according to von Mises stress irrespective to the pressure field

Nonlinear and forced oscillations of supported viscous droplet were focused in the present study. The droplet has a free contact line with solid plate and inviscid fluid. Natural frequencies of a pendant droplet have been investigated experimentally by imposing the acoustic wave while the frequency is being increased at a fixed amplitude. The evaporation was observed at atmosphere pressure. The droplet was recorded throughout the entire evaporation process and transient variations of the volume was measured. The evaporation process of oscillating droplet with thermofoil has been also observed to investigate analyzing the resonance effect on the thermal characteristics of droplet. It is found that a pendant droplet shows the resonant behaviors at each mode similar to the theoretical analysis. During imposing the acoustic wave, the pendant droplet makes a rotating motion in its longitudinal axis which is a new shape oscillation mode. The evaporation rate of a pendant droplet at resonant frequency is significantly enhanced.

The wafer's size has been increased up to 300mm according as the devices have been integrated sophisticatedly. For this process to make 300mm-wafer, it is required strict level which removes the particulates on the surface of wafer. Therefore we need new type wet-station which can reduce DI water and chemical in the cleaning process. Moreover, it is very important to control the temperature and the concentration of chemical wet-stat ion. The chemical supply system which is used currently is not only difficult to make a fit mixing rate of chemical in cleaning process, but also it is difficult to make fit quantity and temperature. We propose new chemical supply system, which overcomes the problems via analysis of fluid and thermal transfer on chemical supply system,

Transient characteristics of a boiler and turbine system for a steam power plant are simulated. One-dimensional unsteady models are introduced for each component. An interaction between boiler and turbine and a control of the water level in the drum are taken into account. Transient responses of the system to the variations of main system variables such as fuel and air flow rate, cooling water injection rate at the attemperator, gas recirculation rate at the furnace and opening of the turbine control valve are examined. Effect of fluid inertia and tube wall thermal inertia on predicted dynamic behavior is investigated.

The dynamic behavior of a single-pressure heat recovery steam generator and turbine system for the combined cycle power plant is simulated on the basis of one-dimensional unsteady governing equations. A water level control and a turbine power control are also included in the calculation routine. Transient response of the system to the variation of gas turbine exit condition is simulated and effect of the turbine power control on the system response is examined. In addition, the effect of the treatment of inertia terms(fluid inertia and thermal inertia of heat exchanger metal) on the simulated transient response is investigated.
