This study explores the application of Blade Element Theory (BET) to predict the aerodynamic performance of three-dimensional propellers, addressing the computational challenges associated with traditional methods like moving mesh and Multiple Reference Frame (MRF). By utilizing two-dimensional flow analysis to compute lift and drag coefficients, this approach enables rapid and efficient aerodynamic performance predictions with significant reductions in computational time. Comparative analysis with three-dimensional simulations reveals BET's accuracy, with thrust predictions showing slight overestimation at higher RPMs. Findings highlight BET's potential for preliminary propeller design, particularly for low-solidity, low-speed applications. This method provides an efficient alternative for optimizing propeller performance in electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) systems, pivotal for advancing Urban Air Mobility (UAM) solutions.

In this paper, a numerical study was conducted on the development of HVAC(Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning) performance required for a large-scale greenhouse. In order to increase the simulation efficiency, fan model, porous media, and radiator model, etc. provided by Fluent were used based on the part performance analysis such as blowing fans and PTC heaters. Developed simulation method was applied to the decision of fan position to secure the flow uniformity and the determination of the heater specification to maintain the temperature suitable for plant growth. This study is the first step for the development of integrated environmental control system of greenhouse for high-income crop cultivation and the simulation method will be revised after correlation test.

In this paper, numerical simulations were conducted to secure both flow distribution and uniform flow discharge through a wall mount type air sterilizer. In order to increase the reliability of the simulation results where there is no well-known validation case for air sterilizer, mesh sensitivity study was performed under the constraint that y+ set to one for k-w SST turbulent modeling for both the air sterilizer and the fan. The installation of various guides and structures was reviewed in the point of flow distribution and pressure drop inside the sterilizer, and the exhaust pressure conditions were predicted to secure uniform flow discharge at outlets. This study has been done based on the computational analysis during the development stage of the air sterilizer, and the results will be verified through physical testing after production of prototype.

This study analyzed the relationship between the community structure of benthic macroinvertebrates and habitat changes in open estuaries among the sites included in the national estuary monitoring program. The estuary survey was conducted under the “Guidelines for Investigation and Evaluation of Biometric Networks” and classified by sea area, 80 places in the East Sea, 102 places in the South Sea, and 19 places in the West Sea were investigated. In a total of 201 open estuaries, benthic macroinvertebrates were identified with 4 phyla, 9 classes, 41 orders, 139 families, 269 species and 196 species in the East Sea, 182 species in the South Sea, and 90 species in the West Sea. The highest population densities were Insecta in the East Sea, the Malacostraca in the South Sea, and the Annelida in the West Sea. Through SIMPER analysis, species contributing to the similarity of benthic macroinvertebrates communities in each sea area were identified. Some species greatly influenced the similarity of clusters. The benthic community in the East Sea was affected by the salinity, so the contribution rate of freshwater species was high. On the other hand, the benthic communities of the South and West Seas showed species compositions are influenced by the substrate composition. As results, the benthic macroinvertebrate community in Korean estuaries was impacted by salinity and substrate simultaneously, and the close relationship with geographical distance was not observed. The result of this study is expected to be used to respond to environmental changes by identifying and predicting changes in the diversity and distribution of benthic macroinvertebrates in Korea estuaries.

In this study, the analysis of the unsteady viscous flow field using the uRANS equation in a moving mesh was studied. The simulation domain is composed of an overset zone fixed to a propeller and rotating at a constant angular speed and a far zone which is located in the far distance and does not move. Each zone is composed of a polyhedral meshes for the accurate and robust gradient calculation in addition to the reduction of computation time. Simulation technique was applied to the aerodynamic analysis of the 5-inch propeller and compared with those of the MRF and the thrust test. The thrust predicted by the moving mesh showed good correlation with the MRF result within 0.5% difference, but the torque showed a tendency to under-prediction by about 10% compared to the MRF. In the future, we plan to further validate the numerical analysis technique using the moving mesh by applying it to the configurations in which precise test results exist.

Spare part management is very important to products that have large number of parts and long lifecycle such as automobile and aircraft. Supply chain must support immediate procurement for repair. However, it is not easy to handle spare parts efficiently due to huge stock keeping units. Qualified forecasting is the basis for the supply chain to achieve the goal. In this paper, we propose an agent based modeling approach that can deal with various factors simultaneously without mathematical modeling. Simulation results show that the proposed method is reasonable to describe demand generation process, and consequently, to forecast demand of spare parts in long-term perspective.

CONWIP is robust and efficient for various type of operating system, such as series, parallel, and assembly systems. Especially, assembly system would be controlled couple of modified CONWIP system. In the following paper, we developed Critical Path CONWIP system that gives signal to sub-line from a station of critical path then, compared with m-conwip, discrete-card-buffer CONWIP. 2 representative asymmetric assembly system models are used to compare each control system. As a result, critical path CONWIP holds less whole work-in-process with similar output. It can decrease total cost and WIP for high holding cost assembly system
