The present study has tested most of loss models previously published in the open literature and found an optimum set of empirical loss models for a reliable performance prediction of centrifugal compressors. In order to improve the prediction of efficiency curves, this paper recommends a modified parasitic loss model. Predicted performance curves by the proposed optimum set agree fairly well with experimental data for a variety of centrifugal compressors. The prediction method developed through this study can serve as a tool for preliminary design and assist the understanding of the operational characteristics of general purpose centrifugal compressors.

Two-dimensional Stokes flows through a micro channel with a couple of symmetric vertical fins are investigated. At far up- and down-stream from the fins, the plane Poiseuille flow exists in the channel. The slip boundary conditions are applied to take account of the Knudsen number effects. For the analysis, the method of eigen function expansion and collocation method are employed. By the results, the streamline patterns and pressure distributions are shown and the force exerted on the fin and the excess pressure drop due to the fins are determined as functions of the length of the fin and Knudsen number. It may be conjectured that the force and the excess pressure drop are almost independent of the Knudsen number.

A method to mitigate the thermal stratification phenomenon of pressurizer surge line is proposed by heating bottom outside of horizontal pipe. Unsteady two dimensional model has been used to numerically investigate an effect of heating the bottom of pipe. The dimensionless governing equations are solved by using the control volume formulation and SIMPLE algorithm. Temperature and streamline profiles of fluids and pipe walls with time are compared with the previous study result. The numerical result of this study shows that the outside heating can relaxate the thermal stratification flow of the pressurizer surge line. Maximum dimensionless temperature difference between hot and cold sections of the pipe inner wall which causes thermal stratification was reduced from 0.514 to 0.424 at dimensionless time 1, 632 and 1, 500 respectively.

Three-dimensional structures of a vortical flow field and heat transfer characteristics in a partially blocked 7-pin fuel assembly mock-up of sodium-cooled fast reactor have been investigated through a numerical analysis using a commercial computational fluid dynamics code, ANSYS CFX. The simulation with the SST turbulence model agrees well with the experimental data of outlet and cladding wall temperatures. From the analysis on the limiting streamline at the wall, multi-scale vortexes developed in axial direction were found around the blockage. The vortex core has a high cladding wall temperature, and the attachment line has a low cladding wall temperature. The small-scale vortex structures significantly enhance the convective heat transfer because it increases the turbulent mixing and the turbulence kinetic energy. The large-scale vortex structures supply thermal energy near the heated cladding wall surface. It is expected that control of the vortex structures in the fuel assembly plays a significant role in the convective heat transfer enhancement. Furthermore, the blockage plate and grid spacer increase the pressure drop to about 36% compared to the bare case.

Recently, as the income level and quality of life have improved, the desire for a pleasant environment has increased, and a deodorization plan is required through thorough prevention and diffusion of odorous substances in waste treatment facilities recognized as hateful facilities, appropriate collection, and selection of the right prevention facilities. In this study, a waste disposal facility was modeled and computerized analysis for odor and ventilation analysis was conducted. Numerical analysis of the waste treatment facility was performed at the size of the actual plant. CATIA V5 R16 for numerical model generation and ANSYS FLUENT V.13 for general purpose flow analysis were used as analysis tools. The average air-age of the internal was 329 seconds, and the air-flow velocity was 0.384m/s. The odor diffusion analysis inside the underground pump room showed congestion-free air circulation through streamline distribution and air-age distribution. This satisfies the ASHRAE criteria. In addition, the results of diffusion analysis of odorous substances such as ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, methyl mercaptan and dimethyl sulfide were all expected to satisfy the regulatory standards. Particularly in the case of the waste loading area, the air-flow velocity was 0.297m/s, and the result of meeting the regulatory standards with 0.167ppm of ammonia, 0.00548ppm of hydrogen sulfide, 0.003ppm of methyl mercaptan, and 0.003ppm of dimethyl sulfide was found.

The flow through a centrifugal compressor rotor was calculated using the quasi-3-dimensional and fully 3-dimensional Navier-Stokes solution methods. The calculated results, obtained during the development of the computer codes for both methods are discussed. In the inviscid quasi 3-dimensional analysis, stream function formulation was used for the blade to blade (B-B) plane calculations, and the streamline curvature method was used for the meridional (H-S) plane calculations. In the viscous 3-dimensional flow analysis, a control volume method based on a general rotating curvilinear coordinate system was used to solve the time-averaged Navier-Stokes equations, and a standard k-.epsilon. model was used to obtain eddy viscosity. The quasi-3-dimensional analysis reasonably predicts the pressure distributions and requires much less computation time in the region where viscous effects are not strong; however, it fails to predict velocity field and loss mechanism through the impeller passage. The viscous 3-dimensional flow analysis shows reasonable pressure distributions and typical jet-wake flow field through the impeller passage. Secondary flow and total pressure distributions on cross-sectional planes explain the loss mechanisms through the impeller.

This study has been performed to evaluate the safety of the retainer-type ball valve for a high-pressure pipeline to a district heating plant. The retainer-type ball valve is an improved design for conventional ball valves, such as the floating ball valve and the trunnion ball valve. Numerical analysis of the valve design verification has been applied to investigate the safety factor and seat leakage of the DN300 and DN400 sizes. The given condition to solve the structural analysis was based on the international standard for ISO 5208. In this study, the methods for structural analysis are described in detail. The structural analysis results present the deformations, the equivalent stresses, and the safety factors. Through these results, this study successfully demonstrates the safety and seat leakage of the retainer-type ball valve. They also streamline the process of development for valve manufacturing.

자연대류유동 형태의 실내화재 해석은 Zone 모델과 Field 모델로 대별된다. Zone 모델은 화염과 연소가스로 인한 상부의 고온 연기층과 하부의 찬 공기층의 온도를 균일하게 간주하고, 실험값을 대입한 간단한 대수식으로 계산하여 간편하나 각각의 위치에 대한 온도와 유속 등을 구할 수 없다. Field모델은 해석영역을 다수의 격자로 구성하고 운동량, 에너지방정식 등을 수치해석하는 방법으로 많은 계산시간 및 컴퓨터 용량이 필요하나 각각의 위치에서의 유동 및 온도분포 등을 자세히 규명 할 수 있다. 열유동 수치해석에는 기존의 상용 프로그램들이 있어 강제대류에는 잘 적용되나, 자연대류에는 대부분 만족할 만한 결과를 주지 못하고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 실내화재해석의 기초연구로, 바닥면이 부분적으로 가열될 때 우측벽의 경계조건을 변화시켜 가면서 실내의 층류 자연대류로 인한 유동장과 온도장을 SIMPLE 수치해석방법을 이용하여 직접 수치해석 하였다.

The spermatogenesis and chromosome number were investigated in the pupal testes of Helicouerpa assulta Guenee by light microscopy. During the spermatogenesis, each bundle of P8(256) sperms developed by 6 mitotic and 2 meiotic spermatogonial divisions. From the early stage of spermatogenesis, it was distinguishable between two kinds of sperm differentiation, eupyrene and apyrene spermatogenesis, which are characteristic in Lepidoptera, by the differences in nuclear shape and cell distribution in immature spermatocyst. Through the followed spermiogenesis, the spermatocysts were developed into two kinds of mature cyst, a streamline-shaped eupyrene cyst with nucleated sperms of thready head or a long spindle-shaped apyrene cyst with anucleated sperms of cylindrical head. As the results off chromosomal analysis at metaphase of the spermatogonial mitosis and spermatocytic meiosis, the chromosome number were 2n=6a/n=31, respectively, and no variation between individuals.

Two dimensional slow viscous flow around two counter-rotating equal cylinders is investigated based on Stokes'approximation. An exact formal expression of the stream function is obtained by using the bipolar cylinder coordinates and Fourier series expansion. From the stream function obtained, the streamline patterns around the cylinders are shown and the pressure distribution in the flow field is determined. By integrating the stress distributions on the cylinder, the force and the moment exerted on the cylinder are calculated. The flow rate through the gap between the two cylinders is also determined as the distance between two cylinders varies. Special attention is directed to the case of very small distance between two cylinders concerned with the lubrication theory and the minimum pressure is calculated to explain a possible cavitation.
