This study was conducted to provide reference data for designing an alarm system that can help prevent the overturning of a container crane under wind load. Two methods, namely, fluid-structure interaction (FSI) analysis and windtunnel test, were adopted in this investigation. To evaluate the effect of wind load on the stability of the crane, a 50-ton-class container crane that is widely used in container terminals was adopted as the analysis model and 19 values were considered as design parameters for wind direction. First, the wind-tunnel test for the reduced-scale container crane model was performed according to the wind direction by using an Eiffel type atmospheric boundary-layer wind tunnel. Next, the FSI analysis for the real-scale container crane was conducted using ANSYS and CFX. Then, the uplift force determined from the FSI analysis was compared with that determined from the wind-tunnel test. Finally, a formula to compensate for the difference between the results of the FSI analysis and the wind-tunnel test was proposed.

This research focused on designing an appropriate thermocouple sensor for a thermal boundary layer with a large temperature gradient. It was designed to minimize the conduction error from a constant temperature wall in a boundary layer. A $79.9-{\mu}m$ thermocouple was chosen, and a five-axis device jig was developed to fabricate a butt-welded thermocouple, which is different from arc-welded junction thermocouples. This was used to minimize the size of the thermocouple junction. In addition to fabricating butt-welded thermocouples, a thorough calibration was conducted to decrease the internal error of a multimeter to ensure that the data from the butt-welded and regular thermocouples were almost the same. Based on this method, a butt-welded thermocouple with a small junction was found to be suitable for measuring the temperature in a thermal boundary layer with very large thermal gradients. Using this thermal boundary layer probe, the thermal boundary layers in a turbine cascade were measured, and the Nusselt numbers were obtained for the turbine endwall.

In the continuing quest for increased turbomachinery efficiency, the part played by blade profile shape remains crucial. The application of a heated thin metallic film with CTA(constant temperature anemometer) to the measurements of the laminar and turbulent boundary layer behavior(shock-boundary layer-interaction) in a transonic wind tunnel. Results of measurements with hot-film sensors on transonic compressor blades are extremely difficult to interpret because of ambiguous probe signals due to the complexity of the local flow pattern. In order to get the explicit information and give the designer to interpret characteristic signals from hot-film probes, a method was developed by comparing the results with other measuring technic results.

남극의 설퇴현상을 모의실험하기 위하여 폐쇠식 대기경계층난류풍동을 호주 시드니대학토목공학과에 제작 설치하였다. 철강과 100mm높이의 구형판자 및 촘촘한 양탄자등의 실험요소를 사용하여 경계층전단난류를 유도발생켰다. 유도발생된 난류는 호주령 남극령토의 해안지역에 부는 난류와 비슷한 유형을 뛰었다. 자연눈에 대처할 물질을 찾기 위하여 몇몇종류의 가루를 사용하였으나 중탄산나트륨이 가장 적합한 것임이 증명되었다. 남극건물모델주위에 실험을 통해 쌓인 눈의 형태로부터 등고선무늬를 형상화 시켰으며 image processing unit을 이용하여 등고선무늬를 포착한 후 등고선 분석 software를 이용, 눈의 형태와 양을 분석하였다.

남극환경은 남극의 거센 바람 및 이에 수반되는 적설현상을 피하기 위해 땅에서 띄우는 고상식 및 지하에 설치하는, 두가지의 형태를 취하고 있다. 고상식의 경우 건물밑으로 바람을 통하게 함으로써 적설현상을 피하는데 효과적이기는 하나 남극의 거센 바람에 대응하기 위하여 구조적인 문제를 해결해야 하는 취약점을 지니고 있다. 본 연구는 경계층난류풍하를 이용하여 고상식 남극건물에 가해지는 풍하중을 파악함으로서 남극건물의 design guide line을 제시하였다.

The simulation of the air flow over models in atmospheric boundary layer wind tunnel is a research region based on advanced scientific technologies imposed by the necessity of studying the turbulent fluid dynamics in the proximity of the Earth's surface. In this study, the atmospheric boundary layer wind tunnel of UCD is used, the mean velocities are measured by augmentation devices such as roughness blocks and spires. The experimental results of mean velocity profile are well fitted with the value of power law.

Wind tunnel testing on the real-scale pantograph for high-speed train has been conducted to investigate the aerodynamic characteristic of the pantograph at high-speed. The mid-scale subsonic wind tunnel of Korea Airforce Acamedy with 3.5m width, 2.45m height, and 8.8m length test section has been employed. The test model has been supported above 50cm height from the bottom of test section using vertical strut to eliminate the boundary layer generated from the bottom of the test section. The height of the pantograph has been varied in three cases, in both of the normal running and reverse running modes. The resultant lift forces of the pantograph to catenary system in all the cases have been measured and the relation between the test conditions and the lift forces have been extensively analyzed.

A numerical wind tunnel simulation is performed in order to predict wind loads acting on a building. The aim of the present study is to suggest a guideline for the numerical wind tunnel analysis, which could provide more detail wind load distributions compared to the wind code and expensive wind tunnel experiments. To validate the present numerical simulation, wind-induced loads on a 6 m cube model is predicted. Atmospheric boundary layer is used as a inlet boundary condition. Various effect of numerical methods are investigated such as size of computational domain, grid density, turbulence model and discretization scheme. The appropriate procedure for the numerical wind tunnel analysis is suggested through the present study.

The methods of atmospheric boundary layer generation in test section were reviewed. To utilize conventional aerodynamic wind tunnels as atmospheric wind tunnels, boundary layer growth should be accelerated. To achieve this, improvement of boundary layer generation devices is required and it might be done by CFD. In this respect, CFD application cases in boundary generation devices were reviewed and potential areas were considered. Some cases are tried by Fluent 5 code.
