Effects of mean flow and nozzle damping on acoustic tuning of a gas-liquid scheme coaxial injector are investigated numerically adopting a linear acoustic analysis. The injector plays a role as a half-wave acoustic resonator for acoustic damping in a combustion chamber of a liquid rocket engine. As Mach number of mean flow in a chamber increases, the resonant frequency of the first tangential mode decreases slightly and the optimum injector tuning length varies negligibly. Nozzle damping affects neither the resonant frequency nor the optimum length. From these numerical results, effects of mean flow and nozzle damping on acoustic tuning of a resonator are negligible. As open area of the injectors increases, the acoustic amplitude decreases, but new injector-coupled modes appear.

The advantages of service in satellite links are representatively a long distance and large capacity transfer and simultaneous communication. And terrestrial links are of high speed and high quality data transfer Therefore a combined form of characteristics of satellite and terrestrial links is desirable to furnish a good quality service to subscribers. And in satellite links an analysis method and a simulation method of file transfer are conducted to evaluate the efficiency of file transfer. The parameters are used the message length and transmission time, and the number of chain record and transmission time. From the results of evaluation, in satellite links, it is found that when the message length is shorter than 512 bytes, the file transmission time becomes extremely long and when the message length is set at 1024 bytes, the file transmission time abruptly increase from 2048 bytes. Also it is confirmed that when the number of chain record is under 15, the file transmission time becomes extremely long and if the number increase up to 90,the time becomes gradually short and over 90,it becomes constant.Therefore,from the result of file transmission in th case of utilizing satelite links,it is confirmed that the optimum message length in the minmum transmission time is present closely at 1024 bytes.Also it is confirmed that when the satelite transmission sped becoms smaller from 24kbps to2400bps,the optimum message length also becomes smaller from 640 bytes to 256bytes.

In this paper, the method that reduce a computation time by optimizing computation process is proposed to realize low-power underwater acoustic communication system. At first, dependency of decision delay on tap length of linear equalizer was investigated. Variance is calculated based on this result, and the optimal decision delay bound is estimated. In addition to decide optimal tap length with decision delay, we extracted the MSE(Mean Square Error) graph. From the graph, we obtained variance value of the MSE-decision delay, and estimated the optimum decision delay range from the variance value. Also, using the extracted optimal parameters, we performed a simulation. According to the result, the simulation employing optimal tap length, which is only 40% of maximum tap length, showed a satisfactory performance comparable to simulation employing maximum tap length. We verified that the proposed method has 33% lower tap length than maximal tap length via sea trial.

Since the heat generation in a chip increases as the components are miniaturized and the computing speed becomes faster, suitable heat dissipation has become one of the primary limiting factors to ensure the reliable operation of the electronic devices. A pin-fin array could be used as an alterative cooling system of the electronic equipment. In this study, convective heat transfer through the pin-fin array is analyzed experimentally based on porous medium approach. The influence of the structure of the pin-fin array including the pin-fin spacing, the pin diameter and plate length on heat transfer characteristics is investigated and compared with the previous analytical results and existing correlation equations. Nowadays, electronic and mechanical devices become smaller and smaller. In this sense, the main purpose of this study is to decide the optimum pin-fin arrangement to get similar heat transfer performance when the length of the existing cooling system is reduced as a half.

Optimum engine performance is obtained when the spray characteristics is well matched to the geometry of a combustion chamber. Among many parameters governing the combustion performance in internal combustion engine, fuel supply characteristics and atomization are important performance factors. Therefore, spray characteristics of high pressure multi-hole injector has been studied experimentally. An experimental test system has been made to operate high pressure injection system and to visualize spray behavior. Spray visualization has been performed to analyze spray formation, spray cone angle, bent angle and penetration length. Spray interaction with piston has been analyzed with various injector installation angle, injection pressure and ambient pressure. Test results show that penetration length is greatly influenced by the injection pressure. Penetration length is decreased as ambient pressure increased. Spray cone angle is increased as injection pressure and ambient pressure increased. However, bent angle is not influenced by the change of injection pressure and ambient pressure. Spray cone angle distribution map is plotted using the experimental data. Fuel movement around the spark-plug has been enforced as increasing injector installation angle.

The frequency band above 20GHz is the great radio resource which has not been used. But the attenuation by atmosphere is so large that the radio systems using this frequency band must have shorter hops. There are few studies of optimal hop length for these millimetric wave radio links in Korea. In this paper we analyzed the millimetric wave propagation characteristics in atmosphere and estimated rain attenuation which have a great effect on hop length. Furthermore, we present a rainfall rate(mm/h) of the cities including Seoul and Pusan using the data collected by several rainfall gauges. This paper presents a method of obtaining the optimum hop length for millimer wave radio links based on the rain rate date.

Housing construction companies have been providing master bedroom walk-in closet as a selling point in modest sized apartments as small as 74m$^2$. It is noticeable that master bedroom walk-in closet in apartments provided by public sectors showed much variety in its size. This study tries to set up the guide line of master bedroom walk-in closet size. It is quite reasonable to assume that the biggest space-occupiers in walk-in closet are blankets and clothing. The survey conducted in this study shows that the number of clothes people keep in their closet does not show any significant difference regardless of square footage of their apartments. 34.7% of respondent answered they keep about 50-60 clothes using coat hangers, where 20-30 of those are winter clothes. It is calculated the required optimum length of the walk-in closet is 3.8m$^2$. Considering the most popular longitudinal dimension of master bedroom, 3.9m, and the space needed to accommodate blankets, it can be concluded that the required length of storage in master bedroom walk-in closet is 2.1m. The length can be adjusted reflecting the length of the master bedroom.

Recess is a geometrical configuration shape that the exit surface of an inner injector is located at a certain length inward from that of an outer injector. It is known to have the characteristics that it can augment mixing efficiency and flame stabilization through internal mixing of propellant in it. So, various experiments, such as backlit stroboscopic photography, phase Doppler particle analyzer(PDPA) and mechanical patternator, were performed at several recess lengths to grasp its effect on the spray characteristics of spray angle, breakup length, atomization and' mixing. Recess length was normalized to dimensionless recess number and two principal mechanisms of impingement and swirl recovery were introduced to explain its influence on the spray characteristics. The effect of recess on SMD doesn't appear significantly near the recess number where mixing efficiency attains to the maximum, whereas mass distribution and mixing efficiency are changed considerably. Thus, it can be inferred that a certain optimum recess number exists, where mixing efficiency becomes the maximum.
