A theoretical study by numerical method has been performed on the natural convection of an air contained in enclosures. The enclosures have rectangular cross section with one vertical wall heated and the other cooled, and with two horizontal partition plates of finite thermal conductivity. Steady two-dimensional flow was assumed. The computation was executed by means of the Implicit Alternating Direction (I.A.D) finite-difference method. Two partition plates of Aluminium whose thickness were 0.05mm was employed in computation. Isothemals, streamlines, local Nusselt numbers and mean Nusselt numbers were obtained for various Grashof numbers and aspect ratio and these results were compared with those in the case of the enclosure with two horizontal insulated plates. From the present results, the heat transfer in the case of partition plates was greater than that in the case of insulation. This study suggests a method to measure the overall heat-transfer of coefficient in double walls which supported by partition plates for insulative construction.

The effect of the interactive flow on convective heat transfer from two vertical isothermal parallel plates have been studied numerically by the finite difference method. The Reynolds number, Grashof number, the relative length, L$_{2}$/L$_{1}$, and the dimensionless plate spacing, b/L$_{1}$ are varied as parameters. In case of outside mean Nusselt number, left outside mean Nusselt numbers show same values as L$_{2}$/L$_{1}$ and b/L$_{1}$ increase, but right outside mean Nusselt numbers decrease as L$_{2}$/L$_{1}$ increases. The inside mean Nusselt numbers are constant at narrow spacings and increase at wide spacings as Grashof numbers increase. The optimun plate spacing on left inside mean Nusselt numbers is b/L$_{1}$=0.4 at Re=100 and b/L$_{1}$=0.3 at Re=200. For the right inside mean Nusselt number, the optimum plate spacings move to the narrow spacing as Reynolds numbers increase and L$_{2}$/L$_{1}$ decrease.

The frosting characteristics on the vertical parallel plates with three cooling plates were experimentally investigated. The experimental parameters were the cooling plate temperature, the air humidity, the air temperature, the air Reynolds number, and the location. The frosting conditions were limited to air temperatures from 10 to $15^{\circ}C$ , air Reynolds numbers from 1600 to 2270, air humidity ratios from 0.00275 to 0.0037kgw/kga and cooling plate temperatures from -10 to $-20^{\circ}C$. Frost growth and density toward the front of the plate were more thick and dense than toward the rear. Frost growth increased with decreasing plate temperature and increasing humidity. In the conditions of the laminar flow, dew point below $0^{\circ}C$and non-cyclic frosting period, frost thickness increased with increasing air temperature. The reason of increasing frost thickness with increasing air temperature was sublimation-ablimation process. The average growth thickness along the locations showed little dependence on the Reynolds numbers.

This paper proposes a method of detecting the license plates of vehicles. The proposed technology applicable to different formats of license plates detects the numbers by standardizing the images at edge points. Specifically, in accordance with the format of each license plate, the technology captures the image in the character segment, and compares it against the sample model to derive their similarity and identify the numbers. Characters with high similarities are used to form a group of candidates and to extract the final characters. Analyzing the experimental results found the similarity of the extracted characters exceeded 90%, whereas that of less identifiable numbers was markedly lower. Still, the accuracy of the extracted characters with the highest similarity was over 80%. The proposed technology is applicable to extracting the character patterns of certain formats in diverse and useful ways.

The heat transfer performance and pressure drop characteristics of brazed-plate heat exchangers with 20 and 30 plates were experimentally measured and analyzed in this study. The mass flow rates of the heat exchangers with 20 and 30 plates were fixed at 0.6 and 0.9 kg/s for the low temperature side, respectively. The mass flow rate for the high temperature side was controlled from 0.2 kg/s to 1.2 kg/s. The inlet temperatures for the high and low temperature sides were $10^{\circ}C$ and $7^{\circ}C$, respectively. The heat transfer characteristics were not influenced by the number of plates. The pressure drop at the heat exchanger with 30 plates was slightly higher than that with 20 plates. The values calculated from the correlations based on gasket plate heat exchangers were compared with the experimental results. It was found that the predicted Nusselt numbers for the gasket plate heat exchangers were about 5% to 20% lower than the measured Nusselt numbers for the brazed plate heat exchangers. However, a pressure drop comparison showed that the calculated pressure drops at the gasket plate heat exchangers were less than half of the measured pressure drops at the brazed plate heat exchangers.

The flatness is the most important nature for the surface plates. For finding such a flatnes a surface plate is surveyed along a number of straight lines parallel to the edges of plate which form a grid pattern. Next the variations in height of the grid points are measured relative to a datum point. the relation between the number of such grid points and the flatuness of a measured surface plate is formulated in this study. In addtion it is found that the grid-point-numbers suggested by KS B 5254 and JIS B 7513 have very poor reliability for estimation of flatness incase of the surface plates with poor original flatness.

The steady laminar mixed convection from two finite vertical parallel plates has been studied by numerical procedure. The governing equations are solved by the finite difference method and point successive over relaxation scheme at R3=100-1000, Gr=0-10$^{6}$ , Pr=0.71 and dimensionless plate spacing b/$\ell$=0.05-0.1. The plume interaction caused by the thermal interference of two plates is observed. As Reynolds numbers are increased, optimum plate spacings are moved to narrow spacings at the same Grashof number, and as Grashof numbers are increased, to wide spacings at the same Reynolds number.

Existing license plate recognition system is used as an optical character recognition method, but a method of using deep learning has been proposed in recent studies because it has problems with image quality and Korean misrecognition. This requires a lot of data collection, but the collection of license plates is not easy to collect due to the problem of the Personal Information Protection Act, and labeling work to designate the location of individual license plates is required, but it also requires a lot of time. Therefore, in this paper, to solve this problem, five types of license plates were created using a virtual Korean license plate generation program according to the notice of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. And the generated license plate is synthesized in the license plate part of collectable vehicle images to construct 10,147 learning data to be used in deep learning. The learning data classifies license plates, Korean, and numbers into individual classes and learn using YOLOv5. Since the proposed method recognizes letters and numbers individually, if the font does not change, it can be recognized even if the license plate standard changes or the number of characters increases. As a result of the experiment, an accuracy of 96.82% was obtained, and it can be applied not only to the learned license plate but also to new types of license plates such as new license plates and eco-friendly license plates.

Two-dimensional numerical simulation has been performed to investigate mixed convection heat transfer between inclined parallel plates with bottom-heated and top-cooled uniformly. The ratio of parallel plate length to height is 9.33, Prandtl number is 909(that of silicone oil at 298K) and Rayleigh number is 8600. In the ranges of the Reynolds number Re from 0 to 1.8 and the angle of inclination ${\theta}$ from 0 to 90 degree. The governing equations are discretized using the finite volume method. In this study, the effects of the Reynolds number, the angle of inclination, and the local and mean Nusselt numbers are presented and discussed. It is found that the periodic flow of mixed convection between inclined parallel plates is shown at $0^{\circ}{\leq}\;{\theta}<30^{\circ},\;Re<0.063$, and the flow pattern can be classified into three patterns which depend on Reynolds number and the angle of inclination. The minimum average Nusselt numbers occur at Re=0.05 regardless of the angle of inclination.

In the present paper, free vibration analysis of angle-ply laminated composite annular and circular plates is performed by numerical methods. First-order shear deformation plate theory is used for kinematic relations. The related governing equations of motion are discretized via differential quadrature and discrete singular convolution methods. Frequency values are obtained for different lamina scheme, thickness-to-radius ratio, and mode numbers. The advantages and accuracy of these two methods are also tested in detail.
