An aerodynamic calculation in hover of KUH main rotor blade is performed using a three-dimensional unstructured hybrid mesh viscous flow solver. The flow solver utilizes a vertex-centered finite-volume scheme that is based on the Roe's flux-difference splitting with an implicit Jacobi/Gauss-Seidel time integration. The eddy viscosity are estimated by the Spalart-Allmaras one-equation turbulence model. A solution-adaptive mesh refinement technique is used for efficient capturing of the tip vortex. Calculations are performed at several operating conditions with varying collective pitch setting for KUH main rotor blade in hover. Good agreements are obtained between the present and other results using HOST and CAMRAD II in overall rotor performance. It is demonstrated that the present vertex-centered flow solver is an efficient and accurate tool for the assessment of rotor performance in hover.

In this paper, in order to apply magnetic fluid with superparamagnetic property as the substitute of ferromagnetic materials, physical properties of magnetic fluid are investigated. A targeted drug delivery system using a capsule filled magnetic fluid is proposed where a magnetic fluid capsule and cylinders are considered as a drug and vital organs, respectively. The dynamic governing equation of this system first is derived. Fluid viscosity, clearance between a cylinder and a magnetic fluid capsule, and levitation height with respect to different cylinder height are considered as major parameters to evaluate dynamic characteristics of the system. The experiments and simulations for the position control of the magnetic fluid capsule in various cylinders are conducted using PID controller. The results show that magnetic fluid with the superparamagnetic property can be applied to a targeted drug delivery system.

This article describes the numerical investigation of blood flow in the stenosed artery bifurcation with acceleration of the human body. Using the commercial software FLUENT, three-dimensional analyses were performed for six simulation cases with different body accelerations and bifurcation angles. The blood flow was considered to be pulsation flow, and the blood was considered to be a non-Newtonian fluid based on the Carreau viscosity model. In order to consider periodic body acceleration, a modified, time-dependent, gravitational-force term was used in the momentum equation. As a result, flow variables, such as flow rate and wall shear stress, increase with body acceleration and decrease with bifurcation angle. High values of body acceleration generate back flow during the diastolic period, which increases flow fluctuation and the oscillatory shear index at the stenosis.

A numerical investigation has been carried out on recirculation zone formed downstream of a compressible flow over a backward facing step. The study has been performed by solving Two-Dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. The system of governing equations has been solved, using an explicit Harten-Yee Non- MUSCL Modified flux type TVD scheme and a zero-equation algebraic turbulence model to calculate the eddy viscosity coefficient. The recirculation region dimensions are characterized over a range of Mach numbers of fixed step height 5mmThe detail of recirculation zone such as pressure, temperature, recirculation length, strength etc are reported. The variations of these characteristics due to change of Mach number are also presented.

An oil hydraulic line is modeled in which a pipe or two pipes of different size connected in series and terminated in a chamber, i.e. a composite line system. The frequency response characteristics are investigated analytically and experimentally. The theoretical analysis is base on unsteady laminar flow of a viscous compressible fluid. It is generally difficult to obtain exactly the frequency equation of these lines system and its solutions in consideration of viscosity of hydraulic fluid, because the diameters of two pipes and length are different. The effect of the position where the cross-sectional area of changes suddenly, the inner radius of pipe and the volume of terminal chamber on the frequency characteristics of this composite line system are also described.

Journal locus with aerated lubricant is analyzed under the dynamic loading condition. In this analysis, we have found that aerated lubricant influences two major factors on the film formation. One is the density variation of the lubricant due to the volume change by the bubbles and the other is the viscosity changes of the lubricant due to the surface tension of the bubble. Those two major factors surprisingly increase the load capacity in certain ranges of bubble sizes and densities. Modified Reynolds'equation is developed with the consideration of aerated ratio in the lubricant and journal locus is computed with Mobility method with the computation of two dimensional pressure distribution over the bearing area.

Recently, as the development of manufacturing technique on SMC(sheet molding compound), various numerical and experimental approaches to injection and compression molding have been investigated. Injection and compression molding, however, has so various cases with complicated boundary condition that it is difficult to analyze mold characteristics precisely. In addition, since a slight change in process variables can significantly change the resulting mold thickness, a proper design is important to compression molding process. Therefore, in this study, the effects of various parameters on compression molding process have been investigated using FEM(finite element method) to formulate the melt front advancement during the mold filling process. To verify the results of present analysis, they are compared with those of reference. The results show a strong effect of initial charge volume, injection time and pressure as a result of variations in the rectangular charge shape.

The present study is devoted to investigate the transient flow and to estimate the filling time fur underfill process by using the numerical model established on the fluid momentum equation. For optimization of the design and selection of process parameters, this study extensively presents an estimation of the filling time in the view points of some important factors related to underfill materials and flip-chip geometry. From the results, we conclude that the filling time changes with respect to the under fill materials because of different viscosity, surface tension coefficient and contact angle. It reveals that, as the gap height increases, the filling time decreases substantially, and goes to the saturated values.

Minimum fludizing velocities and voidages were investigated for closely sized sand and magnesia particles with mean diameters in the range of $297-841\;{\mu}m$ over the temperature between 15 and $1.000^{\circ}C$. Boundaries between changing behaviour at $Re_{mf}=14$ and Ar=17,000 were observed. In beds of fine particles in Geldart's group "B", the minimum fluidizing velocity ($U_{mf}$) decreased as temperature increased, but not as much as expected on account of the gas viscosity increase, furthermore the increase in the minimum fluidizing voidage (${\in}_{mf}$). With larger particles in group "D", $U_{mf}$ increased, first, with temperature increase because of reduced gas density, and depending on the particle size, $U_{mf}$ reduced as flow conditions moved from turbulent to laminar. Among the correlations predicting $U_{mf}$, Ergun equation agreed best with the experimental data providing that the change in ${\in}_{mf}$ according to temperature is allowed for.

free volume in polymers is defined as the difference of the specific volume and the volume which is not available for the particular molecular motion which is responsible or the process that is considered . Relations between free volume and viscosity free volume and diffusion coefficient are pre-sented both in the case of simple low molecular weight liquids and in the case of polymers. Molecular models and free volume models are reminded starting from the equilibrium state equation of Simha and Somcynski. The non equilibrium situations of specific volume of glass polymers below Tg are shown introducing different relaxation volume equations which involve different material's parameters and con-cept of the fictitious temperature. The diffusivity equations of Vrentas and Duda are introduced both for the glassy and rubbery states. The possibility of introducing time relaxation functions is also suggested. The importance of finding experimental evidences of the free volume is stressed. highlights of the free volume measurement methods are given in particular as to dilatometry photocromy fluorescence electron spin resonance small angle X-ray scattering positron annihilation spectroscopy.
