Current turbulence models including modified $K-{\varepsilon}-{\tau}$ turbulence model do not predict compression effect on turbulence accurately in an internal combustion engine. The $K-{\varepsilon}-{\tau}$ turbulence model was suggested to improve the predictability of compression effect by We et al. In this paper a numeri-cal study was performed to clarify the applicability of the $K-{\varepsilon}-{\tau}$ turbulenc model to the calculation of the in-cylinder flow of an axisymmetric engine. THe results using $K-{\varepsilon}-{\tau}$ turbulence model are compared to those from the modified $K-{\varepsilon}-{\tau}$ turbulence model and experimental data. The mean veloc-ity and rms velocity profiles using $K-{\varepsilon}-{\tau}$ turbulence model showed a better agreement with an experimental data than those of modifid $K-{\varepsilon}-e$ turbulence model.

Applicability of the RNG k-$\varepsilon$ model to the analysis of unsteady axisymmetric turbulent flow of a reciprocating engine including port/valve assembly is studied numerically. The governing equations based on non-orthogonal including port/valve assembly is studied numerically. The governing equations based on a non-orthogonal coordinate formulation with Cartesian velocity components are used and discretised by the finite volume method with non-staggered variable arrangements. The predicted results using the RNG k-$\varepsilon$ model of the unsteady axisymmetric turbulent flow within a cylinder of reciprocating model engine including port/valve assembly are compared to these from the modified k-$\varepsilon$ model and experimental data. Using the RNG k-$\varepsilon$ model seems the have some potential for the simulations of the unsteady turbulent flow within a port/valve-cylinder assembly over the modified k-$\varepsilon$model.

이차원 표층방류 밀도분류의 거동을 조사하기 위하여 k-$\varepsilon$ 이방정식 수치모델을 개발하였다. 평균류 및 난류수송에 관한 계산결과를 실험결과와 비교하여 본 수치모델이 이들의 흐름특성을 양호하게 예측할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 방류구에 있어서의 k 및 $\varepsilon$의 설정이 표층 밀도분류의 흐름에 미치는 영향을 정량적으로 평가하였다. 또한, 많은 연구에서 무시되어 왔던 $\varepsilon$ 방정식에 있어서의 부력생성항 및 계수 $C\varepsilon$$_3$의 값에 대한 검토를 행하여 흐름의 전개에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 이차원표층 밀도분류에 관한 계산결과를 제시하고 중요한 몇가지 흐름특성에 대하여 토의하였다.

This study is concerned with the critical evaluation of predicative capability of a k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model using the Renormalization Group(RNG) theory. The present numerical model for solution of the Navier-Stokes System is based on the modified PISO algorithms. Computations have been performed with the RNG-based K-$\varepsilon$ model for the two-dimensional flow over a backward-facing step, a confined coaxial jet, and a swirling flow in a swirl combustor. Numerical results are compared with experimental data in terms of mean flow velocities, turbulent kinetic energy, and turbulent stresses. Numerical results clearly indicate that the RNG-based K-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model shows a significant improvement over a standard K-$\varepsilon$ model in predicting the turbulent flows with flow separation and swirl.

An extended $k-\varepsilon$ tuebulence model modified by considering the streamline curvature effect and standard $k-\varepsilon$ turbulence model have been applied for three dimensional analysis of turbulece flow in a $90^{\circ}$ curved duct. By comparision of the results with the experimental data, the modified extended $k-\varepsilon$ model gave closer agreement with experimental data than the results from standard $k-\varepsilon$ model owing to an extra time scale of the production rate and parameter describing effects of streamline curvature included in the dissipation rate equation.

핀틀 움직임에 의해 발생되는 큰 유동박리에 대해 적합한 2-방정식 난류모델의 압축성계수 보정모델을 판단하기 위하여 수치적 연구를 수행하였다. 난류모델은 저 레이놀즈수 k-${\varepsilon}$ 모델과 k-${\omega}$ SST 모델에 압축성 보정 모델(Wilcox와 Sarkar 모델)을 적용하여, 핀틀 노즐의 세부유동장을 관찰하고 노즐 벽면에서의 압력을 실험데이터와 비교 분석하였다. 마하디스크(Mach disk)의 위치와 박리영역에서의 압력 회복 형태는 난류모델에 따라 다르게 나타났으며, 각 난류모델에 압축성 보정을 적용하여 유동 박리 포획의 정확도를 개선하였다. 압축성이 보정된 k-${\varepsilon}$ 모델이 실험결과와 매우 잘 일치하였다.

Many turbulence models have been developed in order to analyze the flow characteristics in an engine cylinder. Watkins introduced k-${\varepsilon}$ turbulence model for in-cylinder flow, and Reynolds modified turbulence dissipation rate by applying rapid transformation theory, Wu suggested k-${\varepsilon}-{\tau}$ turbulence model in which length scale and time scale are separated to introduce turbulence time scale, and Orszag proposed k-${\varepsilon}$ RNG model. This study applied the models to in-cylinder flow induced by intake valve and piston moving. All models showed similar flow fields during early stage of intake stroke. At the end of compression stroke, ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ Watkins, ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ Reynolds and ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ RNG predicted well second and third vortex, especially ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ RNG produced new forth vortex near central axis at the lower part of cylinder which was not predicted by the other models.

The ability of turbulence model to accurately describe the complex characteristics of the flow field and the fuel spray is of great importance in the optimum design of diesel engine. The numerical simulations of the flow field and the spray characteristics within the combustion chamber of direct injection model entgine are performed to examine the applicability of turbulence model. The turbulence models used are the RNG $\varepsilon$ model and the modified $\varepsilon$ model which included the compressibility effect due to the compression/expansion of the charges. In this study, the predicted results in the quiescent condition of direct injection model engine show reasonable trends comparing with the experimental data of spray characteristics, i. e., spray tip penetration, spray tip velocity. The results of eddy viscosity obtained using the $\varepsilon$ model in the spray region is significantly larger than that obtained using the RNG $\varepsilon$ model. The application of the RNG model seems to have some potential for the simulations of the spray characteristics, e. g., spray tip penetration, spray tip velocity, droplets distribution over the $\varepsilon$ model.

This article describes the numerical investigation of turbulent blood flow in the stenosed artery bifurcation under periodic acceleration of the human body. Numerical analyses for turbulent blood flow were performed with different magnitude of periodic accelerations using a modified turbulence model which was considering drag reduction of non-Newtonian fluid. The blood was considered to be a non-Newtonian fluid which was based on the power-law viscosity. In order to validate the modified $k-{\varepsilon}$ model, numerical simulations were compared with the standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ model and the Malin's low Reynolds number turbulence model for power-law fluid. As results, the modified $k-{\varepsilon}$ model represents intermediate characteristics between laminar and standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ model, and the modified $k-{\varepsilon}$ model showed good agreements with Malin's verified power law model. Moreover, the computing time and computer resource of the modified $k-{\varepsilon}$ model were reduced about one third than low Reynolds number model including Malin's model.
