  • In this study a microchannel with various arrangement of blocks is newly proposed. This design comprises periodically arranged simple blocks. In this configuration, the stirring is greatly enhanced at a certain geometric parameter set. To characterize the flow field and the stirring effect both the numerical and experimental methods were employed. To obtain the velocity field, three-dimensional numerical computation to the Navier Stokes equations are performed by using a commercial code, FLUENT 6.0. The fluid-flow solutions are then cast into studying the characteristics of stirring with the aid of Lyapunov exponent. The numerical results show that the particles' trajectories in the microchannel heavily depend on the block arrangement. It was shown that the stirring is significantly enhanced at larger block-height and it reaches maximum when the height is 0.8 times the channel width. We also studied the effect of the block stagger angle, and it turns out that the stirring performance is the best at the block angel ${45^\circ}$.

  • Nowadays, optimum structural design techniques based on CSR have been developed and applied to the preliminary design stage focused on minimum weight and minimum construction cost of ship structure. Optimum structural design algorithm developed before could minimize weight and cost on fixed compartment arrangement. However, to develop more efficient design technique, a designer needs to combine optimized compartment arrangement with optimized ship structural design because compartment arrangement has a large effect on structural design according to the change of still water bending moment as a consequence of compartment arrangement change. In this study, automated algorithm for compartment arrangement of an oil tanker is developed to apply preliminary structural design. The usefulness of developed algorithm is verified with Aframax oil tanker constructed by STX shipbuilding Co.Ltd..

  • Because the moist foods like anchovy were appeared lower quality by hot air that occurred the lipid oxidation, the drying system by using the cold air has been used widely. This study has been carried out on the performance improvement according to arrangement angle of baffle and location of air duct in the cold air dryer. The main parameters in this study are the arrangement angles which are without, $0^{\circ}$, $10^{\circ}$, $20^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$ and $40^{\circ}$, and the locations of air duct are without, front, center and back. For this study we have conducted the numerical analysis method using fluent in order to obtain the optimal condition of the drying performance. As the arrangement angle of baffle is increased, the relative humidity is proportionally decreased, the value at $40^{\circ}$ is 42.2% that indicate the reduction of about 4% than without it. After the air duct was installed, the decreased relative humidity is showed within 1%, therefore, the effect of air duct for improving the dry capacity is more large than the arrangement angle of baffle. Finally, we have obtained the optimal conditions that the arrangement angle is $40^{\circ}$ with the air duct for a cold air dryer.

  • In order to estimate volume transport by upwelling for single artificial seamount, same shape and size of artificial seamount already deployed was applied to numerical experiment. The result showed that strong upwelling appeared at front while took place downwelling at rear. The strongest upwelling existed at the top of the artificial seamount. Volume transport by upwelling was computed as 785 m3/s. Column arrangement was applied to two artificial seamount in three cases; case 1) no clearance, case 2) sixty-five meters of clearance as half of artificial seamount's length, and case 3) hundred-thirty meters of clearance as an artificial seamount's length. All cases of column arrangements showed more upwelling volume transport than that of single seamount. Particularly, the case of no clearance calculated as 106% and appeared the most upwelling effect comparing to two other cases. Row arrangement was also applied to two artificial seamount in three cases; case 4) no clearance, case 5) forty meters of clearance as an artificial seamount's width, and case 6) eighty meters of clearance as twice of artificial seamount's width. Upwelling volume transport in case 4 increased 48% than the case of single seamount. Other two cases of 5 and 6 were estimated as 97% increased and more effective than case 4. According to the case experiments, column arrangements show more upwelling volume transport than that of row arrangements. In cases of column arrangements, with decreasing clearance between two seamount, the effect increases while showing maximum value at clearance zero. In cases of row arrangements, on the contrary, with decreasing clearance between two seamount, the effect decreases while showing minimum value at clearance zero. Since simple barotropic condition was considered for this study, further study is necessary by considering baroclinic condition to get close to reality. In conclusion, in deploying artificial seamount, optimal arrangement should be well designed to enhance primary and secondary productivity and to increase the diversity of species as well as reducing time and space.

  • This research proposes a method to control combustion instability in a gas turbine combustor having an annular combustor form and compares the effect of flow symmetric braking through nozzle arrangement and the corresponding change in equivalent ratio. To this end, the symmetry breaking effect was confirmed through mode analysis of FFT, Time signal, and phase trajectory. In addition, the unstable area and the stable area were identified through mode analysis, and this was shown on the contour map. The present research shows that instability occurs when the equivalent ratio and the arrangement of the nozzles are symmetry or when the nozzles are continuously arranged, but if the arrangement and equivalent ratio are not symmetry, the combustion instability decreases dramatically even if the difference in the equivalent ratio is small.

  • Fiber arrangement was important for fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites using injection fabrication. In this work, fiber arrangement in CF/PP was investigated to use electrical resistance (ER) method during injection times. There were 3 types of injection products of CF/PP with different ER change ratio by fiber arrangement. High ER change ratio case of injection CF/PP products had better increased tensile strength. This reason was due to the fiber arrangement of CF/PP by injection. Fractured surface and contact angle of CF/PP products were used to evaluate for injection product quality. Uniform fiber arrangement of CF/PP by injection type exhibited the uniform heat condition of melted CF/PP. Steady thermal transfer effect occurred from melted CF/PP to steel injection mold. Steady thermal transfer effect of CF/PP was transmitted to high ER change ratio of mold. Ultimately, good condition CF/PP product by injection molding method could be predicted by using ER method.

  • When the shear force governs the response of an RC element, as in the case of a low-rise shear wall, the effect of shear on the element's response is thought to be responsible for the 'pinching effect' in the hysteretic loops. However, it was recently shown that this undesirable pinching effect can be eliminated in the hysteretic load-deformation curves of a shear-dominant element if the steel grid orientation is properly aligned in the direction of the applied principal stresses. In this paper, the presence and absence of the pinching mechanism in the hysteretic loops of the shear stress-strain curves of RC elements was explained rationally using a compatibility aided truss model. The analytical results indicate that the pinching effect of the RC elements is strongly related to the direction of the steel arrangement. The area of the energy dissertation does not increase proportionally to the difference between the direction of the principal compressive stress and the direction of the steel arrangement.

  • The horizontal thermal storage tank with heat pipe which is suitable for the sensible heat storage system is able to store a hot water from the heat source such as heating pad efficiently and to supply a hot water to load rapidly. Therefore Arrangement of heating pad affects thermal flow and thermal storage efficiency. So, if effective arrangement is decided for condition of constant number of heating pad, the more rapid thermal flow effect and higher thermal storage efficiency is obtainable by active heat transfer. In this experiments, number of heating pad is ranged from three, five and nine, and when number of heating pad is constant, arrangement are two types of concentration-type and dispersion-type. As a result, for the case of concentration-type of heating pad, strong entrainment take place in horizontal thermal storage tank with heat pipe by active heat transfer and in the constant number of heating pad, the concentration-type has the higher efficiency with about 5∼6% than the dispersion-type. Therefore, when heating pad is equipted to horizontal thermal storage tank with heat pipe, concentration-type of heating pad is an efficient design in constant number. of heating pad.
