Viscoelastic fluid is used in various industrial sites because its cost reduction and environmental benefits by preventing formation of fine droplets that scattered around. However, viscoelastic fluids, unlike newtonian fluids, contain a shear thinning characteristic that decrease in viscosity as shear rate increases and elastic characteristic, making it difficult to predict spray breakup process. In this study we made three test fluids. Boger fluid with viscoelastic characteristics, and two newtonian fluids, were prepared to exclude shear thinning characteristics and study the effects of elastic characteristic only. Flow visualization, spray angle, and SMD were measured for three test fluids using laboratory scale impinging jet test apparatus. As a result, it was confirmed that Boger fluid, unlike the newtonian fluid, was not formed fine droplets that scattered around and the breakup process appeared differently. In addition, SMD was found to be large in Boger fluid, and the SMD according to pressure was confirmed that there is no significant difference.

Glove valves are used for various purposes in the process control field because such valves enable easy control of temperature and pressure. However, such valves are associated with significant loss of pressure and also have the disadvantage of complicating the shape of the cage or plug to facilitate linear flow rate change. In this paper, the shape of the plug, one of the valve flow control elements, was designed to improve the flow characteristics of the glove valve, and then CFD analysis was performed using compressible fluid. The numerical analysis results of the glove valve were analyzed according to the opening ratio and the pressure ratio of the valve. From these results, it was found that the proper notch on the side of the plug contributed to reducing the energy loss of the fluid through the valve and improving the linearity of the valve.

Fluid characteristics at microscale were tried to be solved in this paper by showing how they deviate with conventional flow governing equations. (e.g. Navier-Stokes Equation) In earlier studies, this deviation phenomena was caused because of omitting no slip flow condition, micropolar effect and EDL(Electric Double Layer)effect of fluid which are usually negligible at macroscaled phenomena. The characteristics of fluid flow were tried to be studied by measuring pressure difference of specified length of the channels using the almost squared micromachined channels. By acquiring pressure difference, we could drive different values (viscosity, flow velocity. etc) from it and these data will be compared with macroscaled flow characteristics. As making microchannel is not easy work and that our knowledge is at mere stage, we had to fail to make it in this time. The hardest thing in this work is to make a hole which is directly connected with channel. The more efficient and easy way of making microchannel is proposed in this paper.

For the improvement of the pump characteristics in the partial capacity range, it must be verified that the influence of the impeller design factor on the internal flows and the influence of the impeller internal flows on the pump characteristics. In this paper, in order to understand the influence of outlet angles on flow conditions and characteristics of a mixed flow pump, experiments were carried out for four kinds of impeller, which have the same inlet angle distributions and meridional section shapes. Results shown that separation and stall in the partial capacity range were enlarged by the outlet angles. The relationship between the separation and the stall at the impeller and the discharge flow conditions were clarified.

In this study, there are 6 mixers that are installed in a 600,000 barrel tank. We identified internal flow characteristics of floating roof tank with varying the number of operation from 4 to 6 because mixer is a variable that influence flow characteristics of the tank. And while varying an angle from Right $60^{\circ}$, Right $30^{\circ}$, Left $30^{\circ}$ to Left $60^{\circ}$, we identified internal flow characteristics of the tank. As a result, maximum velocity of flow was 0.02m/s stationarily when we changed the number of operation from 4 to 6. Maximum velocity of flow by change of an angle was from 0.42m/s to 0.47m/s. Therefore, we identified that these factors don't have a great influence on internal flow characteristics of a tank by investigating results with varying the number of operation and an angle.

This paper reports the fluid flow and heat transfer around a module cooled by forced air flow generated by a piezoelectric(PZT) cooling fan. A flexible PZT fan with distortion in a fluid transport system of comparatively simple structure which was mounted on a PCB in a parallel-plate channel($450{\times}80{\times}700mm^3$) accelerates surrounding fluid locally. Input voltages of 20-100V and a resonance frequency of 23Hz were used to vibrate the cooling fan. Input power to the module was 4W. The cooling effect using a PZT fan was larger than that of free convection. Fluid flow around the module were visualized by using PIV system. The temperature distribution around heated module were visualized by using liquid crystal film(LCF). We found that the flow type was y-shaped and the cooling effect was increased by the wake generated by a piezoelectric cooling fan.

본 연구는 물탱크 내부의 사류구역 최소화에 목적을 두고 진행하였으며 입수관의 형태를 개선하여 물탱크 내부에서 발생하는 유동특성을 전산유체역학(Computational Fluid Dynamics, CFD)모사 기법을 이용하여 분석 하였다. 기존에 물탱크에 사용되던 자유낙하 방식의 입수관을 다공형 스크류 노즐 입수관으로 개선하고 유동 특성을 분석한 결과 노즐 안에 스크류 날개가 설치된 경우 유동흐름의 폭이 넓게 분사 되었으며 원통형 물탱크 내부에서도 넓은 유동 흐름이 나타났다. 또한 사각형 물탱크에 다공형 스크류 노즐 입수관이 1개 설치되어 있을 경우와 2개 설치되어있을 경우의 유동해석과 추적자모의를 수행하였으며 그 결과 입수관을 2개 설치할 경우 MODAL, MORILL index값이 1에 가깝게 나타나 Plug Flow 특성에 근접하단 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

The flow characteristics passing a multi-point Pitot tube flow-meter of diamond shape and the characteristics of flow coefficients of the flow-meter are experimentally studied by varying combination of upstream rectangular dual elbows. The results provide the flow coefficients, which show good stability and reliability within the Reynolds number range coveted here in this study, and which can be used to measure flow-rates in practice. The variation of dual elbows upstream can change the velocity field so much that the flow pattern might thwart the precise flow measurement using the multi-point Pitot tube. The strongest swirl is detected in the case of $90^{\circ}$ dual elbow combination of all. In addition, it is observed that flow separation remains unchanged and occurs at the same point irrespective of various upstream dual elbow combinations.

This study examined the fluid flow characteristics of a hydraulic retarder adapted as an auxiliary brake for heavy vehicles. The commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software STAR-CCM+ was used to investigate the torque performance and flow characteristics of the hydraulic retarder. The numerical results showed that the pressure distribution was higher near the inner wall surface of the rotor and stator. The pressure of the working fluid increased in the radial direction of the rotor and stator. The variation in the fluid velocity intensity showed a similar trend to that of the fluid pressure, but the maximum velocity appeared near the outer wall surface of the rotor and stator interface. The numerical results showed that increasing the revolution speed of the retarder greatly increased the rate of torque generation.
