In influence of the vapor phase turbulent stress (i.e., the too-phase Reynolds stress) to the characteristics of two-phase system in a horizontal pipe has been theoretically investigated. The average two-fluid model has been constituted with closure relations for stratified flow in a horizontal pipe. A vapor phase turbulent stress model for the regular interface geometry has been included. It is found that the second order waves propagate in opposite direction with almost the same speed in the moving frame of reference of the liquid phase velocity. Using the well-posedness limit of the two-phase system, the dispersed-stratified How regime boundary has been modeled. Two-phase Froude number has been found to be a convenient parameter in quantifying the onset of slugging as a function of the global void fraction. The influence of the taper phase turbulent stress was found to stabilize the flow stratification.

In this paper, tapered shape of multiport power divider/combiner modified for 2 GHz range from the model published by [10] is proposed. Parameters determining electrical property of the circuit structure have been analyzed by HFSS simulation. For input matching, balance of output signals and phase linearity at each output port, one circular hole has been etched out on the circuit surface. 1:2 and 1:3 power dividers/combiners designed by this study have been compared with the same circuits designed by the method of [10] in terms of S-parameters. As a result, it has been found that the modified structure of power divider/combiner have improved return loss more than 20 dB and another 18 dB, respectively, at 2 GHz.

This study was conducted to develop a stem volume table for the Robinia pseudoacacia using stem taper equations. Specifically, Kozak's model was used in the estimation of each model parameter. The fitness of the estimated model was statistically verified and results of the residual analysis were found significant. Therefore, this model is considered applicable in the preparation of stem volume table for R. pseudoacacia. Furthermore, volume with bark and without bark table were developed based on the bark thickness estimation equation. The bark thickness estimation equation was also statistically significant, The stem volume table developed for R. pseudoacacia, which was first in Korea, is vital in managing these forests.
