Supersonic coaxial jets are investigated numerically by using the axisymmetric, Wavier-Stokes equations which are solved using a fully implicit finite volume method. Three different kinds of coaxial nozzles are employed to understand the flow physics involved in the supersonic coaxial jets. Two convergent-divergent supersonic nozzles are designed to have the same Mach number 2.0, and used to compare the coaxial jet flows with those discharging from one constant-area nozzle. The impingement angle of the annular jets are varied. The primary pressure ratio is changed in the range from 2.0 to 10.0 and the assistant jet ratio from 1.0 to 3.0. The results obtained show that the fluctuations of the total pressure and Mach number along the jet axis are much higher in the constant-area nozzle than those in the convergent-divergent nozzles, and the constant-area nozzle lead to higher total pressure losses, compared with the convergent-divergent nozzles. The assistant jets from the annular nozzle affect the coaxial jet flows within the distance less than about ten times the nozzle throat diameter, but beyond it the coaxial jet is conical with self-similar velocity profiles. Increasing both the primary jet pressure ratio and the assistant jet pressure ratio produces a longer coaxial jet core.

추력기의 성능 등을 예측하려면 기하학적 모양과 압력비를 고려한 노즐 유동 특성을 해석해야 한다. 이 논문에서는 연속체 역학 역학의 가정이 성립하는 한계를 파악하기 위해서 인공위성 자세 제어용으로 사용되는 실제 축대칭 노즐에서의 유동을 계산하였다. 유동은 정상 상태의 비반응 압축성 유동이고 비정렬 격자계를 사용하였다. 추력기의 면적비는 56이고 주위 압력의 진공도를 변경하면서 해석하였는데 그 압력이 $10^{-3}$ 기압 이하가 되면 연속체 역학은 더 이상 타당하지 않게 된다.

본 연구에서는 정맥 등과 같은 혈관의 상황을 모사하기 위하여 선형적으로 벽 두께가 변하는 축 대칭 관의 벽면과 유동의 상호작용을 유한요소 방법으로 해석하였다. 사용한 유한요소 상용 소프트웨어(ADINA)의 타당성을 검증하기 위해서 막힘이 있는 혈관에서의 벽과 혈류의 상호작용을 해석하고 이를 기존의 실험결과와 비교하였다. 또한 2차원 신축 벽을 가지는 평판 사이의 유체 유동에 대한 결과를 기존 연구결과와 비교하였다. 축대칭 문제의 경우, 입구의 압력은 일정하게 유지하면서 출구 압력을 감소시켜 나간다. 출구 압력의 감소에 따라, 유량은 증가하며, 관내 유로의 단면적은 감소한다. speed index(평균속도를 파의 속도로 나눈 값)가 1 근방에서 유량은 최대가 되며, 유로 단면적이 최소가 된다. 그리고 출구압력이 좀 더 감소하면 유량은 오히려 줄어든다. 이와 같은 현상을 유동제한(flow limitation) 혹은 초킹(choking)이라 하는데, 폐의 기도(airway) 및 모세혈관, 그리고 이외의 여러 정맥들에서 자주 발생하는 폭포효과의 원인이 된다. 상류벽 두께와 하류 벽두께의 비가 2 일 경우에는 하류쪽에서 목(area throat)이 형성되며 이 비가 3일 경우에는 상류 쪽으로 이동하는데 하류 벽면의 강성(stiffness)이 상류 쪽에 비해 강하게 되어서 상류 쪽에서 먼저 붕괴가 일어나기 때문이다.

본 연구에서는 butterfly valve주위의 비압축성 및 압축성유동 특성을 수치해석을 통하여 조사하였다. 밸브는 문제를 단순화시키기 위하여 평판 디스크로 간주하였으며, 다양한 디스크 각도 및 압력비 변화에 대한 계산을 수행하였다. 각도가 증가함에 따라 디스크 상류면의 정체점은 디스크의 중심으로 이동하는 것을 볼 수 있었고, 입구공기의 유입 속도는 감소함을 볼 수 있었다. 최고 유속은 디스크와 벽면사이에 형성되는 vena contracta 효과에 의해 생기는 목의 하류에서 형성됨을 볼 수 있었다. 압력비를 감소함에 따라 압축성 효과는 증대되며 유동이 초음속화 되면서 생성되는 강한 wall jet에 의해 shock cell structure가 형성되는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 입구유량은 디스크 각도와 압력비의 증가에 따라서 감소하며, 압력손실계수는 디스크 각도의 증가 및 압력비의 감소에 따라 증가하였다.

An ejector is a machine utilized for mixing fluid, maintaining a vacuum, and transporting fluid. The Ejector enhances system efficiency, are easily operated, have a mechnically simple structure, and do not require a power supply. Because of these advantages, the ejector has been applied to a variety of industrial fields such as refrigerators, power plants and oil plants. In this work, an ejector was used to safely recycle anode tail gas in a 5 kW Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell system at KEPRI(Korea Electric Power Research Institute). In this system, the ejector is placed at mixing point between the anode tail gas and the cathode tail gas or the fresh air. Commercial ejectors are not designed for the actual operating conditions for our fuel cell system. A new ejector was therefore designed for use beyond conventional operating limits. In this study, the entrainment ratio is measured according to the diametrical ratio of nozzle to throat in the designed ejector. This helps to define important criteria of ejectors for MCFC recycling.

Objective: Stress is one of the most important etiological factors in our lives. Human body makes effort to keep his homeostasis from stress by using autonomic nerve system. So we need markers which can evaluate autonomic nerve system easily. HRV represents such markers. Sympathetic and Parasympathetic nerve system are part of autonomic nerve system, related with cur body and diseases in ENT, Dermatology, Ophthalmology are also deeply related with stress, Sympathetic and Parasympathetic nerve system. So we can expect that it can help understanding patients to evaluate autonomic nerve system with HRV Research Methods and Procedures: Forty one patients who have seif-recognized stress in Dept. of Oph & Otolaryngo & Dermatology were selected. SDNN. RMSSD, LF, HF, norm-LF, norm-HF, LF/HF ratio, LnLF, LnHF were checked. Results: Men showed lower SDNN, HF, and LnHF than women(p<0.05). Age over-forty group showed significant lower SDNN, LF, HF, LnLF, LnH(p<0.01), and lower RMSSD(p<0.05) than age under-forty group. There's no big differences for age at norm-LF, norm-HF, and LF/HF ratio. Skin disease group showed higher SDNN, RMSSD, LF, HF, LnLF, LNHF than the others, facial palsy group showed higher norm-HF. LF/HF ratio, and mouth-throat group showed higher norm-LF, but there's no statically significant difference. Comparing skin disease group with the others, the others showed statically significant low SDNN(P<0.01), RMSSD, LF, HF, LnLF and LnHF(P<0.05).

A water driven ejector loop was designed and constructed for air absorption. The used ejector was horizontally installed in the loop and annular water jet at the throat entrained air through the circular pipe placed at the center of the ejector. Wide range of water flow rate was provided using two kinds of pumps in the loop. The tested range of water flow rate was 100${\ell}$ /min to 1,000 ${\ell}$/min. Two-phase flow inside the ejector loop was simulated by CFD analysis. Homogeneous particle model was used for void fraction prediction. Water and air flow rates and pressure drop through the ejector were automatically recorded by using the LabView based data acquisition system. Flow characteristics and air bubble velocity field downstream of the ejector were investigated by two-phase flow visualization and PIV measurement based on bubble shadow images. Overall performance of the two-phase ejector predicted by the CFD simulation agrees well with that of the experiment.

In order to investigate the operating characteristics of a supersonic steam ejector, the axisymmetric, compressible, Reynolds-averaged, Navier-Stokes computations are performed using a finite volume method. The secondary and back pressures of the ejector system with a second throat are changed to investigate their effects on the suction mass flow. Three operation modes of the steam ejector system, the critical mode, subcritical mode and back flow mode, are discussed to predict the critical suction mass flow. The present computations are validated with some experimental results. The secondary and back pressures of the supersonic steam ejector significantly affect the critical suction mass flow. The present computations predict the experimented critical mass flow with fairly good accuracy. A good correlation is obtained for the critical suction mass flow. The present results show that provided the primary nozzle configuration and secondary pressure are known, we can predict the critical mass flow with good accuracy.

An experimental study on the performance and instability development characteristics of a centrifugal compressor equipped with a cambered variable diffuser has been performed with varying diffuser vane angles. The test was conducted at the design speed of 20,800 rpm and the 80% design speed of 16,640 rpm for 5 diffuser angles : 65$^{\circ}$, 70$^{\circ}$, 75$^{\circ}$, 77.5$^{\circ}$, 80$^{\circ}$ The steady performance test results showed that choking mass flow rate decreases and total pressure ratio increases with a narrowed surge margin as the diffuser vane angle increases. Unsteady pressures were measured using high-frequency pressure transducers at the inducer and the diffuser throat to investigate the instability phenomena such as rotating stall and surge inside the compressor. From the unsteady measurements, it is found that the transient process from rotating stall to surge was mainly affected by diffuser angles. The results of the present study can be applied to the instability control of the centrifugal compressors using a variable diffuser.

Compound choking frequently occurs at a minimum area of the flow passage, where two or more streams which have different stagnation properties are merged. This phenomenon is especially important in that the flow choking may not be given by Mach number, M=1 at the nozzle throat. In order to obtain a detailed understanding of the flow characteristics involved in the compound flow choking, the two-dimensional, compressible, Wavier-Stokes equations are solved using a fully implicit finite volume method and the predicted solutions are compared with the results of the one-dimensional theoretical analysis. Stagnation pressure and temperature of each stream are changed to investigate the effects on the compound choking. The results show that stagnation pressures of each stream affect Mach number and static pressure distributions downstream of the exit of the convergent nozzle. However, the flow characteristics of the compound choking are not significantly dependent on the total temperature ratio.
