Abstract

In this study, the numerical investigation of the non-linear behavior of the fluid flow with physical properties, such as porosity and intrinsic permeability of a porous medium, and kinematic viscosity of a fluid, are carried out. The applied numerical model is ANSYS CFX which is the three-dimensional fluid dynamics model and this model is verified through the application of existing physical and numerical results. As a result of the verification, the results of the pressure gradient-velocity relationship and the friction coefficient-Reynolds number relationship produced from this study show relatively good agreement with those from existing physical and numerical experiments. As a result of the simulation by changing the porosity and intrinsic permeability of a porous medium and the kinematic viscosity of a fluid, the kinematic viscosity has the biggest effect on the non-linear behavior of the fluid flow in the porous medium.

본 연구에서는 다공성 매질의 공극율과 투수능 그리고 유체의 동점성 계수와 같은 물리적 특성에 따른 유체흐름의 비선형 거동에 대한 수치적 분석을 수행하였다. 적용된 수치모형은 ANSYS CFX 3차원 유동해석 모형이며, 모형의 검증은 기존의 물리적 실험 결과 및 수치모의 결과의 적용을 통해 수행되었으며, 적용된 압력경사와 유속과의 관계 그리고 마찰계수와 레이놀즈 수와의 관계에 대해 비교적 잘 일치하였다. 다공성 매질의 공극율과 투수능 그리고 유체의 동점성 계수의 값을 변화시키면서 모의한 결과 유체의 동점성 계수가 다공성 매질의 유체흐름의 비선형 거동에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.
