Because the mixing efficiency is influenced remarkably by varying the geometrical configurations, the study of flow characteristics inside the mechanical agitator is very important to improve the performances. The draught tube in the agitator makes intermixing between the screw and tube by interrupting radial flow, and it makes circulation region in a mixing chamber. In general, the helical screw agitator with a draught tube (HSA) is proved more efficient to mix than the others. Consequently, such as the shapes of helical screw, number of pitches and the variation of angular velocity are the main parameters for improving the capacity of HSA. And also the suspension of the solid particles in the agitator can be determined these parameters. The rate of solids suspension in the mixing chamber was quantified with a statistical average value, of. Numerical analyses were carried out, using a commercial CFD code, Fluent, to obtain the velocity, pressure and particle distributions under steady, laminar flow and no-slip conditions. Results are graphically depicted with various parameters.

Y-jet nozzle has various advantages over other twin-fluid nozzles and are used in industrial boilers. However, it costs large energy consumption because of assisted air and its design is complex. The Y-jet nozzle is consisted of a liquid and gas port and a mixing chamber. The diameter of the port and the length of the mixing chamber greatly affect spray and atomization characteristics, therefore, they are the most important factors in nozzle design. In this study, The experimental setup is consisted of a laboratory scale spray system. The characteristics of the Y-jet nozzle according to the design parameters were observed. As a result, it was found that the length of the mixing chamber did not have effect on the flow rate and the choking condition. The droplet size was measured using a Malvern type measuring device. In addition, measurements were conducted in the front and the right directions of the nozzles. Based on the results, the SMD View Ratio is defined. It is the asymmetrical design characteristics of the Y-jet nozzle.

본 연구에서는 온도조건에 따른 MR 유체의 물리적 특성을 연구하고자 침전 및 전단응력실험을 수행하였다. MR 댐퍼에 사용되는 MR 유체는 자성 파우더를 포함하고 있어 침전현상이 발생하므로 침강성과 인가전류에 의한 전단응력 변화를 상온과 고온조건에서 실험하였다. 침강특성을 조사하기 위하여 강제 대류형 오븐을 인가전류에 의한 전단응력을 측정하기 위하여 점도계를 사용하였다. 실험결과로부터 MR 유체는 시간과 온도에 따른 침강 특성이 다름을 그리고 교반시간이 큰 경우에 MR 유체의 분산성이 2배 이상 우수하였다. 전단률이 증가할수록 전단응력은 로그함수의 증가분포를 인가전류를 증가할수록 2차 함수의 증가분포를 그리고 MR 유체의 전단응력은 상온보다 고온에서 6-18% 낮은 분포를 보였다.

Numerical study on the advection in a microchannel with multi blocks has been performed. the microchannel is simulated three-dimensionally using a commercial fluid analysis code, FLUENT 6.0. Geometric factors of blocks are used in analysing the mixing effect. the numerical results show that the height of blocks in the channel is a key factor. Further study is required to investigate mixing effect of the microchamel with various shapes.

압력수 확산공정은 정수공정에서 응집제나 염소용해수를 고압의 압력수로 분사하여 혼합하는 공정이다. 본 연구의 목적은 압력수 확산공정에 대한 전산유체역학적(Computational Fluid Dynamics) 진단을 통해 투입한 약품의 완전 혼합거리 및 혼합 거리를 줄이기 위한 확산판의 크기와 설치거리를 도출하는 것이다. 진단결과 2,200 mm 대형관에 $5kg/cm^2$ 압력수를 50mm, 100 mm 분사관으로 분사할 경우 혼합이 완료되는 혼합거리는 4D였다. 혼합거리를 줄이기 위해 분사관 전방에 확산판을 설치할 경우 분사관이 50 mm일 때 0.1D 직경의 확산판을 분사관 전방 0.2D 거리에 설치하면 혼합거리를 3D로 줄일 수있다. 그러나 분사관이 100 mm인 경우는 확산판의 크기와 설치 거리와는 상관없이 확산판이 없는 4D보다 확산거리를 줄일 수 없는 것으로 진단되었다. 따라서 2,200 mm 관에 압력수를 분사하는 경우는 50 mm 분사관을 설치하는 것이 100 mm보다 훨씬 효율적인 것으로 나타났다.

We have investigated the mixing behavior of a tubular heat exchanger reactor using CFD and compared its mixing performance with different type of reactors such as jet mixer and continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR). The mixedness in each reactor was quantified introducing a statistical average value, the coefficient of variation (CoV), which is a normalized standard deviation of concentration of a component over the whole fluid domain. Through the analysis of the flow pattern and turbulent energy distribution, we suggested a simple but effective way to improve the mixing performance of the tubular heat-exchanger reactor, which include the addition of the internals and/or the increase of the recycle flow rate. It was found that the CoV value of the tubular reactor could be nearly equivalent to that of CSTR by applying those two alternatives suggested here.

Turbulence in journal bearing operation is examined and the thermal variability is studied for isothermal, convective and adiabatic conditions on the walls under aligned and misaligned conditions. Also, the effects of a contraction ratio at the cavitation region and the mixing between re-circulating oil and inlet oil on the fluid field of oil film are included. An algorithm for the solution of the coupled turbulent Reynolds and energy equations is used to examine the effects of the various factors. Heat convection is found to play only a small role in determining friction and load under no mixing condition. However, under realistic mixing condition, the heat convection cannot be ignored. The wall temperature and heat transfer have been found to be of secondary important factors to the mixing effectiveness at the groove and the final mixture temperature.

It is a serious subject for energy conservation to prevent the energy loss caused by mixing of heated and cooled air jets in a building which two types of air-conditioning systems are adopted in perimeter and interior zone. The purpose of this paper is to clarify the quantitative and qualitative mechanisms of the mixing loss and to propose preventive methods for it. In this paper, by using the dynamic heat load calculation method, heat extraction loads of a typical office building in Pusan are calculated. According to the results, numerical simulation based on the computational fluid dynamics were peformed in order to measure the mixing loss in physical size HVAC system. Then, the distributions of air temperature and velocity are analyzed in order to grasp the relations by setting temperature differences influence on the mixing loss.

The present work analyzed the effect of mixing vane shape on the flow structure and heat transfer downstream of mixing vane in a subchannel of fuel assembly, by obtaining velocity and pressure fields, turbulent intensity, flow-mixing factors, heat transfer coefficient and friction factor using three-dimensional RANS analysis. NJl5, NJ25, NJ35, NJ45, which were designed by the authors, were tested to evaluate the performances in enhancing the heat transfer. Standard $\kappa-\epsilon$ model is used as a turbulence closure model, and, periodic and symmetry conditions are set as boundary conditions. The flow blockage ratio is kept constant, but the twist angle of mixing vane is changed. The results with three turbulence models( $\kappa-\epsilon$, $\kappa-\omega$, RSM) were compared with experimental data.
