  • This paper reports the study on development and verification of numerical models and analyzes of flow at high speed around structural elements in the shape of a curved pipe (e.g., a fragment of a water slide). Possibility of engineering estimation of wind forces acting on an object in the shape of a helix is presented, using relationships concerning toroidal and cylindrical elements. Determination of useful engineering parameters (such as aerodynamic forces, pressure distribution, and air velocity field) is presented, impossible to obtain from the existing standard EN 1991-1-4 (the so-called wind standard). For this purpose, flow at high speed around a torus and helix, arranged both near planar surface and high above it, was analyzed. Analyzes begin with the flow around a cylinder. This is the simplest object with a circular cross-section and at the same time the most studied in the literature. Based on this model, more complex models are analyzed: first in the shape of half of a torus, next in the shape of a helix.

  • It is important to consider powertrain cooling performance, when engine is applied to new vehicle. If the performance is poor, engine will be damaged by overheating. But, the development timing of engine is faster than timing of vehicle, it is difficult to test the cooling performance of new engine and vehicle. In this study the powertain cooling performance was estimated with some test and calculation data. First, the heat rejection test was conducted. From this test, the heat rejection data at required rpm and load was acquired. Second, coolant flow test was conducted. From this test coolant flow rate to radiator was measured. Then engine torque and rpm was calculated from vehicle load and speed. Vehicle load and speed was calculated from test mode. Then by comparing these data, the powertrain cooling performance was estimated.

  • The accurate wind speed information at the hub height of a wind turbine is very essential to the exact estimation of the wind turbine power performance testing. Several methods on the site calibration, which is a technique to estimate the wind speed at the wind turbine's hub height based on the measured wind data using a reference meteorological mast, are introduced. A site calibration result and the wind resource assessment for the Taekwanryung test site are presented using a one-month wind data from a reference meteorological mast and a temporal mast installed at the site of wind turbine. From this analysis, it turns out that the current location of the reference meteorological mast is wrongly determined, and the self-developed codes for the site calibration are working properly. Besides, an analysis on the uncertainty allocation for the wind speed correction using site calibration is performed.

  • The accurate wind speed information at the hub height of a wind turbine is very essential to the exact estimation of the wind turbine power performance testing. Several methods on the site calibration, which is a technique to estimate the wind speed at the wind turbine's hub height based on the measured wind data using a reference meteorological mast, are introduced. A site calibration result and the wind resource assessment for the TaeKwanRyung test site are presented using three-month wind data from a reference meteorological mast and the other mast temporarily installed at the site of wind turbine. Besides, an analysis on the uncertainty allocation for the wind speed correction using site calibration is performed.

  • A cross-flow fan is widely used on many industrial fields: a blower for the general industry, mining industry, automobile and home appliances. The design point of the cross-flow fan is generally chosen by based on the region within low static pressure and high flow rate. It relatively makes high dynamic pressure at low speed because a working fluid passes through an impeller blade twice. However, it has low static pressure efficiency between $30\%$ and $40\%$ because of relative high impact loss. Recently, in the air-conditioning systems, the operating behaviors at the off-design points are highly regarded to broaden the application area for various air-cooling loads. Especially, at the low flow rate, there exists a rapid pressure head reduction, a noise increase and an irregular flow against a rearguider as a scroll of centrifugal fan. Numerical analyses are carried out for cross-flow fan including the impeller, the rearguider and the stabilizer. Numerical domains are discretized by hexahedral cells. Three-dimensional, unsteady governing equations are solved using FVM, SIMPLE algorithm, sliding grid system and standard k-$\epsilon$ turbulence model.

  • In case of hollow cylinder extrusion using porthole die, the effects of extrusion parameters-temperature, the speed of extrusion, the shape of the die and mandrel-on metal flow in porthole die extrusion of aluminum have been investigated. However, there have been few studies about condenser tube extruded by porthole die. This study was designed to evaluate metal flow, welding pressure, extrusion load, tendency of mandrel deflection according to variation of chamber length. in porthole die. Estimation was carried out using finite element method. Porthole die is analyzed in as non-steady state. Analytical results provide useful information the optimal design of porthole die.

  • This experiment was conducted to investigate the possibility that milking speed traits can be improved by estimating their genetic parameters and to provide basic information when the goals for dairy cattle improvement are established. The amount of milk within the first three minutes (3MG) was 8.97 Kg and 57% of total milk was produced within 3 minutes, but it was lower than that of the recommended level (70%). The highest milk flow (HMF) and average milk flow (DMHG) in the main milking phase were 3.66kg/min and 2.43kg/min, respectively, which were lower than those of the recommended levels (4.0 5.0kg/min and 3.0 4.0kg/min), suggesting slower milking speed of domestic dairy cattle compared to that of foreign dairy cattle. The heritability estimates on the highest milk flow (HMF), maximum milk flow (HMG) in one minute and average milk flow (DMHG) in the main milking phase were 0.35, 0.31 and 0.29, respectively, which are suitable for the improvement of traits with medium heritability. The genetic correlation between total milk yields (MGG) and average milk flow (DMHG) in the main milking phase was 0.591, while the genetic correlations among milking speed traits including the highest milk flow (HMF), maximum milk flow (HMG) in one minute and average milk flow (DMHG) in the main milking phase were in the range of 0.889 0.997.

  • The main purpose of this paper is to develop the practical method to estimate the congestion price in odor to overcome the difficulty of traditional microeconomics approach for demand and cost function concepts. In this paper, we estimate the theoretical congestion toll which reflecting the real traffic conditions such as a speed-density functions using a traffic engineering methods We calculates the optimal congestion toll based on the real traffic conditions assuming that the electronic road pricing (ERP) systems ave installed for the study road. After evaluating the various speed-density relationship methods. we found that the Drake model is best suited for the Gangbyeon Expressway Using the Drake model, the optimal congestion toll will be 94 to 3,255 Won for the traffic speed between 44km/h to 68 km/h based on wage rate method and 107 to 6,381 Won for the marginal substitution method for the Gangbyeon Expressway in city of Seoul, Korea.
