Cooling fog is being used in various parts of society such as fine dust reduction, cleanliness, and temperature drop. Cooling fog has the advantage of low flow rate and ease of use compared to other spray systems. In the case of cooling fog, it was confirmed that the injection angle increased as the pressure increased and the nozzle diameter increased. In this study, the minimum injection angle was 33.61 degrees and the maximum injection angle was 107.38 degrees. It was confirmed that the larger the nozzle diameter and the smaller the pressure, the larger the droplet size. In addition, it was confirmed that the Sauter Mean Diameter (SMD) increased along the X and Y axis directions. It was confirmed that the size of the droplet decreases as it approaches the nozzle tip due to the characteristics of the nozzle design factor.

Average temperature and temperature uniformity in a battery cell are the important criteria of the thermal management of the battery pack for hybrid electric vehicles and electric vehicles (HEVs and EVs) because high power with large size cell is used for the battery pack. Thus, liquid cooling system is generally applied for the HEV/EV battery pack. The liquid cooling system is made of multiple cooling plates with coolant flow paths. The cooling plates are inserted between the battery cells to reject the heat from batteries to coolant. In this study, the cooling plate with U-shaped coolant flow paths is considered to evaluate the effects of coolant flow condition on the cooling performance of the system. The counter flow and parallel flow set up is compared and the effect of flow rate is evaluated using CFD tool (FLUENT). The number of counter-flows and flow rate are changed and the effect on the cooling performance including average temperature, differential temperature, and standard deviation of temperature are investigated. The results show that the parallel flow has better cooling performance compared with counter flow and it is also found that the coolant flow rate should be chosen with the consideration of trade-off between the cooling performance and pressure drop.

An experimental work was conducted to investigate the characteristics of the onset of flooding in vertical annuli with a direct injection mode using air and water. The onset of flooding was determined by means of pressure drop measurement while the air velocity was increased gradually under fixed liquid flow rates. Data of the onset of flooding were collected for various combinations of the tube size and the nozzle number. A theoretical analysis of the onset of flooding was also performed based on an envelope theory. The result shows that the onset of flooding in small-scale annuli can be predicted relatively well by the theory. A modified Wallis parameter was used to investigate the scaling effect of flooding phenomena in the annuli, indicating a relatively reasonable result. The number of nozzle has no effect on the flooding velocity when liquid was injected through 2, 3, 4 and 6 nozzles but the initiation of flooding was significantly expedited when 12 nozzles were employed for liquid injection.

The spray characteristics of the oxidizer-rich preburner are investigated. This system is generally operated at an oxidizerfuel mixture ratio of 50. The spray quality and mixing performance are very important for safe combustion. To know the spray characteristics of the oxidizer-rich preburner, we have designed various swirl injectors and measured droplet velocity and size by the PDPA system. The flow discharge coefficient of the fuel orifice is $0.12{\sim}0.21$, oxidizer orifice discharge coefficient is $0.16{\sim}0.28$. From the spray visualization, fuel nozzle spray angle is $15^{\circ}{\sim}25^{\circ}$, oxidizer nozzle spray angle is $65^{\circ}{\sim}85^{\circ}$ and combined spray angle is reduced $2^{\circ}{\sim}5^{\circ}$ compared to the oxidizer nozzle only case. From the PDPA measurement, droplet SMD is $175\;{\mu}m$ at 50 mm and $190\;{\mu}m$ at 100 mm of variant 1 combined case. The number concentration measurement revealed the reason of the droplet diameter increasement with distance. That is due to drop coalescence results from collision of drops which is occurred in dense sprays at a long distance from nozzle orifice exit.

A study of low NOx atomizer was carried out to reduce nitrogen oxides(NOx) in a liquid fuel burner flame. The basic concept of NOx reduction in this atomizer is the fuel 2-staging combustion which is generated by a single atomizer forming two different stoichiometric flames. Two orifices swirl atomizer was selected and modified to realize this concept, and it was tested to obtain the design process of low NOx atomizer. These experiments were achieved to find out the relationship between the injection pressures and the flow rate, spray angle and drop size of swirl atomizer as well as to confirm the NOx reduction concept in real plant(power boiler). In comparison between experimental and theoretical results, the correct discharge coefficient and spray angle were obtained. In real burning test, NOx reduction rate was reached to above 27% of the case using conventional swirl atomizer.

액체 로켓의 추진제로 이용되는 극저온 유체는 발사체의 경량화를 위한 터보 펌프의 고속화로 인해 공동현상이 발생하게 된다. 그러나 극저온 유체는 등온 유체인 물과는 달리 낮은 액상/증기 밀도 비율을 가지며 온도에 민감한 잠열변화율을 갖게 된다. 이에 따라 극저온 유체에서 공동 현상이 발생하게 되면, 증발 냉각 현상이 발생하게 되어 공동 내부와 주 유체 사이의 온도 차이가 발생하게 된다. 따라서 이러한 극저온 유체의 특징을 반영해 주기 위해 기존의 경험적 공동 현상 모델을 수정하여 새로운 모델을 적용하였다. 또한 온도 변화에 따른 효과를 반영해 주기 에너지 방정식을 첨가 하였다.

A performance analysis of refrigeration system using the HFC-134a and scroll compressor is performed numerically. The refrigeration system mainly consists of various standard components such as heat exchanger, compressor, and expansion device. The model for heat exchanger performance is based on a tube-by-tube method which is analyzed separately by considering the cross-flow heat transfer with the outdoor air flow and pressure drop. Compressor is used the scroll-type compressor which has many merits such as high efficiency, low noise and vibration, and small in size. Short-tube is included as an expansion device. Vapour and liquid line are also considered for the performance analysis of refrigeration system. Using the modeling of various components of refrigeration system, a performance comparison of CFC-12 and HFC-134a is performed numerically for the various outdoor air temperature and various values of short-tube diameter. As the results of this study, the refrigeration system performance decreases as the outdoor air temperature increases. And the optimum short-tube diameter based on COP is 1.37mm for this system.

The present study investigated the effects of the experimental parameters on the cooling characteristics of the multichip module cooled by the indirect liquid cooling method using water, PF-5060, and paraffin slurry. The experimental parameters were coolants including Paraffin slurry with mass fraction of 2.5~7.5%, heat flux of 10~40W/$\textrm{cm}^2$ for the simulated VLSI chips and Reynolds numbers of 3,000~20,000. The size of paraffin slurry was constant as 10~40${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ before and after the experiment. The chip surface temperatures for paraffin slurry were lower than those for water and PF-5060. The local heat transfer coefficients for the paraffin slurry were larger than those for water and the local heat transfer coefficients reached a row-number-independent and thermally-fully-developed value approximately after the third row. The local Nusselt numbers for paraffin slurry with a mass fraction of 7.5% were larger by 20~38% than those for water. The paraffin slurry with a mass fraction of 5% shelved the best thermal and hydrodynamic characteristics when local heat transfer and pressure drop were considered simultaneously.

In an open-pool type research reactor with a downward forced flow in the core, pipes can be under sub-atmospheric pressure because of the large pressure drop at the reactor core in the atmospheric pool. Sub-atmospheric pressure can result in air inflow into the pipe from the pressure difference between the atmosphere and the inside of the pipe, which in a postulated pipe break scenario can lead to the breakdown of the cooling pump. In this study, a plant-scale experiment was conducted to study air inflow in large piping systems by considering the actual operational conditions of an advanced research reactor. The air inflow rate was measured, and the entrained air was visualized to investigate the behavior of air inflow and flow regime depending on the pipe break size. In addition, the developed drift-flux model for a large vertical pipe with a diameter of 600 mm was compared with other correlations. The flow regime transition in a large vertical pipe under downward flow was also studied using the newly developed drift-flux model. Consequently, the characteristics of two-phase flow in a large vertical pipe were found to differ from those in small vertical pipes where liquid recirculation was not dominant.
