This study aims to analyze the characteristics of ventilation corridor and propose its utilization strategies in Jeonju city in order to discuss how to utilize urban ventilation corridors as a planning factor for reducing heat wave impact and fine particle pollution. For these purposes, cold air characteristics such as cold air flow and height of cold air in Jeonju area located in the Honam Jeongmaek were analyzed and major ventilation corridors were specified. Based on them, we proposed mountain management strategies for securing and utilizing ventilation corridors. We used KALM (Kaltluftabflussmodell), a cold air simulation model developed in Germany and identified both the cold air flow and the height of cold air layer generated during 6 hours at night. As a result, the cold air flow generated in the forests located in the northeast and east sides of the Jeonju city became clear and the height of cold air layer increased in the valley terrain and farmland areas with time. In particular, Jeonju City has an ideal structure of urban ventilation corridor. Based on the results, the area where the cold air generation is active was designated as the 'cold air conservation area', and the area requiring the management for the good cold air flow was as the 'cold air management area'. This study is expected to be used as basic data of policy making and research for reducing heat wave impact and fine particle pollution such as climate change adaptation policy and urban forest plans for ventilation corridor composition.

It is well known that an Oscillating Water Column Wave Energy Converter (OWC-WEC) is one of the most efficient wave absorber equipment. This device transforms the vertical motion of water column in the air chamber into the air flow velocity and produces electricity from the driving force of turbine as represented by the Wells turbine. Therefore, in order to obtain high electric energy, it is necessary to amplify the water surface vibration by inducing resonance of the piston mode in the water surface fluctuation in the air chamber. In this study, a new type of OWC-WEC with a seawater channel is used, and the wave deformation by the structure, water surface fluctuation in the air chamber, air outflow velocity from the nozzle and seawater flow velocity in the seawater channel are evaluated by numerical analysis in detail. The numerical analysis model uses open CFD code OLAFLOW model based on multi-phase analysis technique of Navier-Stokes solver. To validate model, numerical results and existing experimental results are compared and discussed. It is revealed within the scope of this study that the air flow velocity at nozzle increases as the Ursell number becomes larger, and the air velocity that flows out from the inside of the air chamber is larger than the velocity of incoming air into the air chamber.

하천에서 물 흐름이 보와 댐과 같은 수공구조물을 지날 때 일반적으로 흐름상태에 다양하고 급진적인 변화가 발생한다. 특히 흐름이 구조물을 지나면서 사류(supercritical flow)로 변하고 다시 상류(subcritical flow)로 복원되면서 일어나는 도수(hydraulic jump) 현상은 수위의 급변화, 흐름 에너지 소산, 변동성이 강한 압력 분포 등이 특징이다. 이러한 흐름 특성들은 보나 여수로와 같은 수공구조물 자체의 성능뿐만 아니라 이들 수공구조물의 하류에서 발생하는 국부세굴로 인해 구조물의 안정성에 부정적인 영향을 줄 수 있다. 따라서 수공구조물을 설계할 때는 이들 구조물을 통과하는 흐름의 비정상 난류 흐름 특성을 정확하게 해석하여 반영하여야 한다. 이 연구에서는 k-omega SST 난류 모형과 자유수면의 급격한 변동을 해석하기 위한 하이브리드-VOF(hybrid volume of fluid)기법을 이용하여 도수현상을 수치적으로 재현하고자 한다. 기존 CFD(computational fluid Dynamics) 모델링에서는 자유수면 변동의 영향을 고려하기 위해 VOF 기법을 많이 사용하였다. 하지면 전통적인 VOF 기법은 다상흐름(multiphase flow)을 오직 부피분율(volume fraction)의 함수로만 고려하며 모의함으로써 강한 수면변동뿐만 아니라 공기연행(air entrainment)를 동반하는 난류 흐름을 모의하는데는 한계가 있다. 이 연구에서 이용하는 Eulerian 기법인 하이브리드 VOF 기법은 물과 공기의 각 상에 대하여 흐름 특성들을 개별적으로 계산하기 때문에 공기연행을 포함한 급변류 흐름에서 전통적인 VOF 기법보다 적용성이 우수하다. 이와 같은 난류모형과 자유수면 포착기법을 이용하여 3차원 비정상 난류 흐름 수치모형을 구축하여 수공구조물 주변에서 발생하는 강한 공기연행과 난류 특성를 보이는 급변류를 수치적으로 재현한다. 이 연구는 계산된 수치해석 결과를 기존 수리실험 결과와 비교하여 수치모형의 적용성을 평가하고 도수 현상에서 발생하는 독특한 흐름 특성을 제시한다.

As urban heat environment problems occur due to climate change, urban thermal environmental problems such as heat waves and tropical nights are becoming more serious in cities. In South Korea, forest areas favorable for generating cold air account for about 63 percent of the land area. Furthermore, the Jeongmaek, the axis of the main mountain ranges of Korea, is located close to the cities. Hence, the management of cold air is an effective way to improve the thermal environment of Korean cities. We selected the Nak-nam Jeongmaek located in the southern part of Korean Peninsular as well as two cities (Jinju-si and Sancheong-gun) located at the Jeongmaek to analyze its cold air characteristics and suggest management strategies of cold air. We used KALM (Kaltluftabflussmodell), a cold air simulation model developed in Germany and identified both the cold air flow and the height of cold air layer generated during 6 hours at night. As a result, the cold air flow generated in the Jeongmaek became clear and the height of cold air layer increased with time. Based on the results, we proposed management plans to maintain and expand the cold air flow. For example, forest areas with active cold air generation were designated as 'cold air conservation areas', and areas requiring management for good cold air flow were as 'cold air management areas'. This study is expected to be useful for establishing systematic urban ventilation plan to improve thermal environment in Korea cities.

최근 기후변화의 영향과 급격한 도시화로 인한 하천 저류능력의 감소 및 부적절한 하수시설의 설계로 도시유역의 홍수 위험성이 증가하면서 적극적인 구조물적 홍수방어대책으로 대심도터널의 활용에 대한 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 일본을 비롯한 외국에서는 대심도터널의 활용이 적극적으로 고려되고 있으며 실제 설치 및 운영 사례 또한 증가하고 있다. 그러나 국내에서는 아직까지 홍수 방어용 대심도터널의 설치 및 운영된 사례가 없고 설계 및 시공과 관련한 기준 및 연구가 미미한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 대심도터널 내부에서의 이상흐름 거동특성을 구명하기 위하여 터널을 모형화한 수평관에서 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 직경 100 mm 투명 아크릴관으로 제작된 수평관 내부를 흐르는 물에 공기를 주입하여 기포를 발생시키고 전기전도계를 이용하여 유속변화에 따른 관에서의 물-공기 혼합 이상흐름의 거동특성에 대해 살펴보았다. 실험결과 터널 계통 전반에서의 물-공기(이상류) 거동 특성을 파악할 수 있었다. 이를 통해 대심도터널 내부 공기에 대한 효과적인 제어로 흐름의 안정화 및 그에 따른 수리성능의 개선효과를 기대할 수 있으며, 도시지역의 집중강우로 인한 수방재 대응 기술개발을 위한 기초자료로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The interpretation on the diffusion of radiation contaminants in air is usually to apply a Gaussian plume equation that obtains normal distributions in stable air flow conditions to draw a conservative conclusion. In this study, a numerical study using computational fluid dynamics methods was performed to interpret the air flow pattern and the diffusion of the radiation contaminants at the Wolseong nuclear power plants, and a more detailed solution can be obtained than the Gaussian plume equation, which is difficult to use to simulate complex terrains. The results show that a significant fluctuation of air flow in the terrain appears in the case of a northwester and southeaster because of the mountain located in the northwest and the sea located in the south-east. The northwesterly air flow shows the most unstable flow in the vertical direction when it passes over the terrain of mountain. The stable southeasterly air flow enters into the nuclear power plant from the sea, but it becomes unstable rapidly because of the interference by the building and the terrain. On the other hand, in the case of a northeaster and southwester, a small interruption of air flow is caused by the terrain and wake behind the buildings of nuclear power plants.

In this paper, a systematic design method on an IPMC(ionic polymer-metal composite)-driven ZNMF(zero-net-mass-flux) pump is introduced for the flow control of an MAV's (micro air vehicle) wing. Since the IPMC is able to generate a large deformation under a low input voltage along with its ability to operate in air, and is easier to be manufactured in a small size, it is considered to be an ideal material of the actuating diaphragm. Through the numerical methods, an optimal shape of the IPMC　diaphragm was found for maximizing the stroke volume. Based on the optimal IPMC diaphragm, a proto-type ZNMF pump with a slot, was designed. By using the flight speed of the MAV considered in this work, the driving frequencies(~ 40 Hz) of IPMC diaphragm, and the flow velocity through the pump's slot, the calculated non-dimensional frequency and the momentum coefficient ensure the feasibility of the designed ZNMF pump as a flow control device.
