The frost and mist in the windshield disturb the sight of driver and passengers especially in winter. This possibly leads to safety problems. In order to export automobiles to the countries of North America, the safety regulation requires the frost of selected area should be completely melted in 30 minutes. The defrost pattern and time for melting of frost are fully dependent on the flow and temperature field near the windshield. Furthermore, the flow and temperature field near the windshield are dependent on the air discharged from defrost nozzle. The present work has been done for understanding the flow features of the discharged air and internal flow within the nozzle duct. The three dimensional Navier-Stokes code was used for performing the generic A/C duct flow analysis. The present results were nearly coincided with experimental data. To perform the parametric study of the effectiveness of the number of guide vanes, the discharge angle and the location of nozzle were changed. The ratio of volume flow rate through defrost nozzle and side exit were compared to investigate the influence of parameters on the effectiveness of defrost nozzle. The velocity profiles and flow patterns of the defrost nozzle duct were also analyzed.

현대 전장의 탐지기술 발달로 인해 항공기의 생존성이 크게 위협받고 있다. 그중 적외선(IR) 추적 미사일은 항공기의 생존성에 큰 영향을 끼치며, 항공기 임무 성공률을 저하시키는 주된 요인이다. 항공기 생존성을 증가시키기 위하여 곡률을 추가한 형상 변형 노즐에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 항공기 생존성을 증가시키기 위한 형상 변형 노즐 중 Double Serpentine 노즐을 선정한 다음, 노즐의 최대 면적변화율의 위치 효과를 분석하였다. 노즐의 최대 면적변화율이 노즐의 추력과 출구의 평균 온도에 영향을 끼치는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 최대 면적변화율이 노즐 후방에 위치함에 따라 추력 페널티가 줄어드는 것을 확인하였다.

Hysteresis is an effect by which the order of previous events influences the order of subsequent events. Hysteresis phenomenon of supersonic internal flows with shock waves has not yet been clarified satisfactorily. In the present study, experiments are carried out on internal flow in a supersonic nozzle to clarify the hysteresis phenomena for the shock waves. Flow visualization is carried out separately on the straight and divergent channels downstream of the nozzle throat section. Results obtained were compared with numerically simulated data. The results confirmed hysteresis phenomenon for shock wave in the Laval nozzle at a certain specific condition. The relationship between hysteresis phenomenon and the range of the rate of change of pressure ratio with time was shown experimentally. The existence of hysteretic behavior in the formation, both the location and strength, of shock wave in the straight part of the supersonic nozzle with a range of pressure ratio has also been confirmed numerically.

A mathematical methodology is proposed for designing nozzle hole shapes producing controlled geometric cavitation. The proposed methodology uses an unstructured RANS flow solver, with the ability to compute sensitivity derivatives via an adjoint algorithm. The adjoint formulation for the N-S equations is presented while variation of the turbulence viscosity is not taken into account during the geometry modifications. The sensitivities are calculated in a mode independently of the shape parameterisation. The method is used to develop and evaluate conceptual shapes for nozzle hole cavitation reduction. The localized region at the hole inlet producing cavitation, is parameterised using its radius of curvature, while a cost function is formulated to eliminate the negative pressures present at this location. Sensitivity derivatives are used to assess the dependence of the localized region on the minimum pressure, and to drive the geometry to the targeted shape. The results show that the computer model can provide nozzle hole entry shapes that produce predefined flow characteristics, and thus can be used as an inverse design tool for nozzle hole cavitation control.

Inkjet printhead may have a lot of nozzles to increase productivity as a manufacturing tool. So, the uniformity of jetting performance among a lot of nozzles has been one of the key issues in inkjet technology In this study, we investigated the cross-talk effect which should be reduced for uniform jetting performance among a lot of nozzles. Due to the cross-talk, the jetting performance of a nozzle can be affected when neighboring nozzles are firing. For experimental study, we used commercial inkjet head SE-128 from Dimatix. To understand the cross-talk effect of SE-128 head, we measured the change in jetting speed of a nozzle when neighboring nozzles are jetting. The measured jetting speed was compared to the case of one nozzle jetting. Also, we used laser vibrometer to measure change in pressure wave due to cross-talk. As a result of the cross-talk, the jetting speed can become faster or sometimes slower depending on firing nozzle location. If the all nozzle are jetting, the jetting speed of a nozzle became slower because the pressure wave for jetting is reduced.

Accumulation of coal ash at the boiler wall reduces combustion and fuel efficiency. The design of a wall blower is important to effectively remove coal ash. We present numerical results for the removal of coal ash from boiler walls of domestic coal-fired power plants, associated with the computational fluid dynamics for the flow from spray nozzle to boiler wall. The numerical model simulates an erosion process in which the multiphase fluid comprising saturated vapor and fluid water is sprayed from the nozzle, and the water particles impact the boiler wall. We adopt the Finnie erosion model for water particles. We obtain the erosion rate density as a function of nozzle angle and its injection angle. As excessive coal ash removal usually induces damage to the boiler wall, the removal operation typically focuses on a large area with uniform depth rather than the maximum removal of coal ash at a specific location. In order to estimate the removal performance of the wall blower nozzle considering several functionality and reliability factors, we evaluate the optimal injection and nozzle angles with respect to the biggest cumulative and highest erosion rates, as well as the widest range and lowest standard deviation of the erosion rate distribution.

When high-pressure gas is exhausted through nozzle exit to the atmosphere, expanded supersonic jet is formed with the Mach disk at a specific condition. In two-dimensional supersonic jets, the hysteresis phenomenon of the reflected shock waves is found to occur under quasi-steady flow conditions. Transitional pressure ratio between the regular reflection and Mach reflection in the jet is affected by this phenomenon. In the present study, experiments are carried out on internal flow in a supersonic nozzle to clarify the hysteresis phenomena for the shock waves and to discuss its interdependence on the rate of the change of pressure ratio with time. Flow visualization is carried out separately on the straight and divergent channels downstream of the nozzle throat section. The influence that the hysteresis phenomena have on the location of shock wave in a supersonic nozzle is also investigated experimentally.

The present study addresses an experimental investigation of the near field flow structures of supersonic, dual, coaxial, free, jet, which is discharged from the coaxial annular nozzle. The secondary stream is made from the annular nozzle of a design Mach number of 1.0 and the primary inner stream from a convergent-divergent nozzle. The objective of the present study is to investigate the interactions between the secondary stream and inner supersonic jets. The resulting flow fields are quantified by pitot impact and static pressure measurements and are visualized by using a shadowgraph optical method. The pressure ratios of the primary jet are varied to obtain over-expanded flows and moderately under-expanded flows at the exit of the coaxial nozzle. The pressure ratio of the secondary annular stream is varied between 1.0 and 4.0. The results show that the secondary annular stream significantly changes the Mach disc diameter and location, and the impact pressure distributions. The effects of the secondary annular stream on the primary supersonic jet flow are strongly dependent on whether the primary jet is under-expanded or over-expanded at the exit of the coaxial nozzle.
