An experimental investigation of two-dimensional steady natural convection cooling in a vertical open top cavity with conducting side walls of finite thickness is presented. The various heat-generating discrete heaters are located on one vertical wall of the cavity. When each heater dissipates different amount of power, the purpose of the work is to obtain the optimal array condition of the heaters. The four cases of non-uniform heating conditions are considered. The temperature fields in the cavity were visualized by the interferometer and local temperatures of the vertical wall were measured by thermocouples. The heaters were arranged in two configurations: flush-mounted on a vertical wall or protruding from the wall about 4.5 mm. The vertical wall was constructed out of copper or epoxy-resin sheet. Experiments have been conducted for air with constant Prandtl number(Pr=0.7), the aspect ratio of 4.6, 7.5, 9.5, power input in the range of 0.9 W ~ 4.2 W. For the enhancement of the cooling effectiveness, the upper and lower of vertical wall would give the better position for the heaters of higher heat flux.

When fluid flows at high speed over an open cavity, large acousitc pressure is produced by fluid/structure interaction at the downstream edge of the cavity. The goal of this paper is suggestion of effective control method to suppress the noise generated from cavity and numerically simulation of active control. The cavity instability mechanism is simulated and a close-loop control algorithm is implemented. The effects of the actuator and some control function are discussed. The compressible Navier-Stokes equations are solved with the high-order and high-resolution numerical schemes to precisely simulate the interaction between flow and acoustic. The results show that noise is effectively suppressed with the control method suggested in this paper.

Numerical simulations have been carried out for a supersonic two-dimensional flow over open, rectangular cavities (length-to-depth ratios are L/D = 1.0) in order to investigate the effect of non-equilibrium condensation of moist air on supersonic flows around the cavity for the flow Mach number 1.83 at the cavity entrance. In the present computational investigation, a condensing flow was produced by an expansion of moist air in a Laval nozzle. The results obtained showed that in the case with non-equilibrium condensation for L/D = 1.0, amplitudes of oscillation in the cavity became smaller than those without the non-equilibrium condensation. Furthermore, the occurrence of the non-equilibrium condensation reduced the peaks of power spectrum density and the frequency of the flow field oscillation increased in comparison with the case of $S_0$ = 0.

This paper describes results of experimental and numerical analyses, in order to analyze a reinforcement effect of concrete mat on open cut restoration of underground cavity. The plate loading tests were conducted to evaluate a reinforcement effect of concrete mat, at reinforcement depths from the ground surface of 10 cm, 20 cm, and 30 cm. The result showed that the reduction ratio of stress (earth pressure) was about 60% at all reinforcement depth. The reinforcement effect considering ground surface settlement and reduction ratio of stress based on laboratory tests and numerical analysis was significant, at reinforcement depths from the ground surface of 10 cm~20 cm. LFWD test results showed that subgrade modulus was the largest when concrete mat was installed 20 cm below ground surface. Therefore, it is effective to reinforce concrete mat within 20 cm from the surface, when the underground cavity due to damage of underground utilities was formed in the height direction to the bottom of the pavement layer.

A numerical simulation is carried out mixed convection in horizontal channel with a heat source from below of rectangular cavity. Finite volume method was employed for the discretization and PISO algorithm was used for calculating pressure term. The parameters governing the problem are the Reynolds number ($10^{-2}{\leq}Re{\leq}50$), the Rayleigh number ($10^3{\leq}Ra{\leq}2.06{\times}10^5$), the Prandtl number ($0.72{\leq}Pr{\leq}909$), the aspect ratio ($0.5{\leq}AR=W/H{\leq}2$) and the angle of inclination ($0^{\circ}{\theta}60^{\circ}$). Mean Nusselt number distributions were obtained and effect of Reynolds number, Rayleigh number and Prandtl number on mixed convection in the horizontal channel with rectangular cavity were investigated.

A Numerical study on two-dimensional laminar natural convection with and without surface radiation in fully or partially open square cavity was performed. The cavity has one vertical heated wall facing a vertical opening and two horizontal insulated walls. The pressure boundary condition was applied to the opening instead of the velocity boundary condition. The results of this study showed that the increase of partition length decreased the convective and the radiative Nusselt numbers. It was also found that the increase of wall emissivity decreased the convective Nusselt numbers but increased the radiative Nusselt numbers.

A 9-year-old male Maltese with foamy nasal discharge, respiratory distress, and sneezing followed by epistaxis was presented to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Seoul National University. Radiography showed no significant findings from an open mouth view. Rhinoscopy also did not find any remarkable lesions in the nasal cavity. But when vigorously swabbing the nasal cavity, numerous cells having round nuclei, coarse reticular chromatin, one large nucleolus and distinct cytoplasmic vacuoles, which is typical for canine transmissible venereal tumor cells were collected. We thoroughly searched for any primary transmissible venereal tumor at the other areas of the body other than the nasal cavity, but found none. The patient responded well to vincristine, and the clinical signs resolved with no respiratory distress, sneezing or epistaxis.

In this paper, a compact L-shaped shorted pin patch to be used at local oscillator port in radar detector is proposed. Shorted pin patch operates as short-open cavity while conventional patch operates as open-open cavity. Shorted pins are L-shaped to obtain quarter wave length and three-quarter wave length resonance for the fundamental(X-band) and $2^{nd}(3^{rd})$(K- and Ka-band) mode resonance frequency, respectively. Thus, the proposed patch can be compact. It is also possible to operate at triple band(X-, K-, Ka-band) with small return loss in radar detector, It is expected that shorted pin patch could improve radar detector sensitivity.

Investigations into cavity flows have been conducted for decades now, most of them being about zero-pressure-gradient flows entering a cavity on a straight wall. However, the flow over curved walls in real-life situations has not been fully investigated. As cavity flows on curved walls exert centrifugal force, these walls are likely to possess different features from straight walls. To verify this possibility, this study investigated cavity flows on curved walls. Using numerical method, the effect of two variables, namely, radius of curvature on a curved wall and inlet Mach number, were investigated for subsonic and supersonic cavity flows. The result demonstrates that the value of the peak pressure generated inside the cavity increases with the decrease in the radius of curvature on a curved wall or an increase in the inlet Mach number. The total pressure loss in the cavity also results in an increase in the cavity drag.

High-speed heavy loaded monohull ships can benefit from application of drag-reducing air cavities under stepped hull bottoms. The subject of this paper is the steady hydrodynamic modeling of semi-planing air-cavity hulls. The current method is based on a linearized potential-flow theory for surface flows. The mathematical model description and parametric calculation results for a selected configuration with pressurized and open air cavities are presented.
