This paper presents a study of transient overvoltages caused by capacitor switching on the utility distribution system. Capacitor banks used for power factor correction and voltage regulation can improve efficiency of the power system. But transient voltages due to capacitor switching on the utility system affect the sensitive customer load equipments. If Distributed Generation System (DGS) is involved in the system, the problems become more serious. In this paper, effect of transient voltages at the customer load created by utility capacitor switching is analyzed by simulations Solutions to this problem are presented.

Transient flow inside a hollow shaft of a Gas Turbine engine during sudden engine stop may result in non uniform heat transfer coefficients in the shaft due to flow instability similar to steady Taylor vortex, which may decrease the lifetime of the shaft. In the present study, transient Taylor vortex phenomena inside a suddenly stopped hollow shaft are studied analytically. Flow visualization is also performed to study the shape and onset time of Taylor Vortices for various initial rotational speed.

Transient flow in a cold-water supply system for cooling the inside of a coal mining pit was numerically simulated. Properly designed and presetted pressure reducing valves control the level of pressures of the piping system at normal or emergent conditions Quasi-steady relations to simulate the valve motion are obtained and the transient performance of the valve is investigated in the present paper. The present method reasonably simulate transient phenomena in the system including the pressure reducing valve. Excessive valve motion and column separation are simulated when the flow is abruptly reduced. A calculated example of the real system is also presented. The simulation can be used for the safety-check and the guidance for design and operation in emergent cases of the system.

The main purpose of igniter is sure ignition of main propellant at desired ignition delay times. Since ignition mechanism of solid rocket propellant involves so many complicated physical and chemical phenomena, it is almost impossible to predict ignition behavior with pure analytical means. In this study, one dimensional and unsteady ignition transient phenomena in solid rocket was analyzed by finite volume method. In analysis, assumption was made that ignition occurs when propellant surface temperature reaches to it's auto-ignition temperature.

Water leak phenomena in the liquid sodium which is a coolant of liquid metal reactor, were investigated by carrying out sodium-water reaction experiment. It was confirmed that sodium and water react each other by the analysis of material composition of aspecimen at the end of experiment. When steam of $100kg/cm^2$ was passed through the leak path of the specimen for 4 hours, reaction products from sodium-water reaction were observed on the leak site. However, re-opening phenomena were not observed at this condition. It was interpretted that the reaction product precipitated on leak path and thermal transient caused self-plugging and re-openning phenomena, respectively.

Because real flow of engine exhaust is very hot and highly transient, it may cause thermal and inertial loads on catalyzed filters in DPF. Transient and detailed flow and thermal simulations are necessary in this field. To assess the importance of time dependent phenomena, typical cone-type configuration such as an underbody DPF is selected for steady and transient analysis. User defined functions of FLUENT by sinusoidal inlet velocities are written and integrated with main solver for realistic simulation. Also, 4-cylinder and 6-cylinder engines for 3,000 L class are considered for the dynamic exhaust effect of engine type. Key parameters to understanding of catalyst performance and durability issues such as flow uniformity index and peak velocity are investigated. Also, pressure drop for engine power are considered. From the simulation results for three different cases, proper approach is recommended.

An experimental study was carried out to evaluate the characteristics of transient performance of carburettered gasoline engine under rapid accelerating transient driving conditions. In order to evaluate the characteristics of transient performance quantitatively, the concept of dead time $t_d$ response delay time $t_r$ are introduced. Performance parameters such as air mass fiowrate Gat, engine speed N, manifold boost pressure Pb, and output torque T are measured simultaneously during the rapid opening of the throttle valve by the stepping motor. During the rapid opening of the throttle valve, air mass fiowrate Gat is increased immediately without delay time, but response of engine revolution N, and output torque T are delayed. Therefore hesitation, and stumble phenomena are occurred. Dead time $t_d$ and response delay time $t_r$ of engine revolution N, which is extremely delayed comparing to other performance parameters, are respectively 0.2-0.3sec., 3.0-4.6sec., and dead time rate $t_d/{\Delta}t$ and response delay time rate $t_r/{\Delta}t$ are linearly increased with the throttle valve opening rate ${\theta}$ during the acceleration from 12 degree to 20 degree at 1250rpm.

THC(Total Hydrocarbon) emissions during cold start and warm-up phase constitute the majority of THC emissions during the FTP-75 mode. As the basic approach to improve the emission performance of Gasoline engine during transient phase, the effect of spark timing retard from MBT on THC emission characteristics is studied by engine test using a Fast response Flame Ionization Detector(FFID). A cyclic analysis of the combustion process shows that high THC emissions are produced first few cycles during the transient phase. This paper presents the results of engine performance and emission of Gasoline engine with various spark timing. consequently, This paper was focused on the combustion phenomena with various spark timing during transient phase which was analyzed by Fast response Flame Ionization Detector (FFID) equipment to measure the cyclic THC emission characteristics.

The power characteristics of the Mg-Air fuel cell were investigated with regard to variation of load conditions. The types of load current using for the Mg-Air fuel cell with 10% NaCl electrolyte were step type, ramp type and pulse type. It was found that transient phenomena occurred in the step current load, which is due to activate of the oxidation-reduction reaction process. And the transient time increase with the load current increase. In the load current of ramp type, the slop of voltage drop increased with current load slop ${\alpha}$ increase. The load voltage and power decreased according to the pulse period of load current decrease were attributed to the metal sludges.

An experimental investigation on transient heat transfer phenomena of impinging diesel-spray on a flat plate in a pressurized chamber is carried out. A diesel spray is injected from a single-hole nozzle and impinges to a heated flat plate in the chamber. A fast-response thermocouple installed in the top surface of the plate measures the transient variation of surface temperature of the plate under various conditions of the chamber pressures. Utilizing the semi-infinite model, the temporal variation of the heat flux on the plate is determined. Effects of various parameters, such as vertical distances between the nozzle and the plate, radial distances from the injection-axis, and the chamber pressures, on the heat flux characteristics of impinging diesel-spray are studied.
