A simplified fast-running system code is developed to simulate loop transients such as pump coastdown, loop failures and natural circulation. Special emphasis is put on the numerical investigation of the natural circulation system with multiloop. For this purpose, 5 governing equations are derived, and they are discretized by the space-time integration technique. The developed computer program is applied to three sample problems; transition from 2-loop to 1-loop operation, transition from 1-loop to 2-loop operation, and the transient behavior with decay power in the case of 2-loop operation.

In the present study, the unsteady in a square-selctional 180.deg. curved duct are experimentally investigated. The experimental study using air in a square-sectional 180.deg. curved duct is carried out to measure axial velocity distributions with data acquisition and processing system. In this system, Rotating Machinery Resolver(RMR) and PHASE Software are used to obtain the results of unsteady flows. In conclusion, the exact measurement of unsteady flow using LDV system depends upon uniformity of metreials, duct thickness, and scattered particles.

The purpose of the present study is to measure the viscosity of liquid in the capillary tube viscometer using the unsteady flow concept. The capillary tube viscometer is consisted of a small cylindrical reservoir, capillary tubes, and the mass flow rate measuring system interfaced with computer. Two capillary tubes with 1.152 and 3.002 mm I.D. are used to determine the diameter effects on the viscosity measurements. The instantaneous shear rate and gravitational driving force in the capillary tube are determined by measuring the mass flow rate through the capillary tube instantaneously. The measured viscosities of water and aqueous Separan solution are in good agreement with the reported experimental data.

The objective of the present study were to measure the viscosities of non-Newtonian fluids by the transient flow concept in a capillary tube and to apply to hemodynamic studies and pump performance evaluations. The developed capillary tube viscometer could be used to measure the viscosities of the non-Newtonian fluids for a wide range of the shear rate by a run of experiment in a very short time interval. The measured viscosities of water and blood fur different shear rates were good agreement with those of the well established data. The measured viscosities for muddy water varied with the shear rates.

A numerical investigation is made of transient evolutionary prcocess of electroosmotic flow in a two-dimensional microchannel connected to a reservoir. The channel height is very small so that two electric double layers forming on the charged surfaces are overlapped. Transient transports of ions in the electrolyte solution are computed by integrating the Nernst-Planck equation together with the Poisson equation for electric potential. The numerical results illustrate that there are two distinct transient phases. The physical mechanisms and relevant time scales for the transient evolution are described.

Effects of the increase rate of Reynold number on near-wall turbulent structures are investigated by performing direct numerical simulations of transient turbulent channel flows. The simulations were started with the fully-developed turbulent channel flow at $Re_{\tau}=180$, then temporal accelerations were applied. During the acceleration, the Reynolds number, based on the channel width and the bulk mean velocity, increased almost linearly from 5600 to 13600. To elucidate the effects of flow acceleration rates on near-wall turbulence, a wide range of durations for acceleration were selected. Various turbulent statistics and instantaneous flow fields revealed that the rapid increase of flow rate invoked bypass-transition like phenomena in the transient flow. By contrast, the flow evolved progressively and the bypass transition did not clearly occur during mild flow acceleration. The present study suggests that the transition to the new turbulent regime in transient channel flow is mainly affected by the flow acceleration rate, not by the ratio of the final and initial Reynolds numbers.

In this study, the piping system conveying unsteady flow is considered. The effects of coupling between the pipe motion and the velocity and pressure of fluid are included for the dynamic stability and response analysis of the piping system. The dynamic equations for a piping system are derived by Newtonian dynamics. For the momentum and continuity equations, the concept of moving control volume is applied. Thus, the governing equations derived herein are valid for the applications to the vibration problems occurred when a piping system starts up or shuts down and also when the valves and pumps operate. For a simply supported straight pipe, the stability analysis is conducted for various nondimensional parameters. The dynamic responses, in both stable and unstable region of stability chart, are numerically tested by the use of central difference method.

비유선형 물체 주위의 유동은 정체유동, 경계층 박리 및 재부착, 주기적 와열의 생성등의 복잡한 유동현상이 공존한다. 이와 같은 유동의 2-방정식 난류모델을 이용한 정확한 예측은 일반적으로 불가능 하다고 인식되어 왔으나, 본 연구에서는 기존의 비교적 단순한 난류모델을 활용한 정사각주 주위의 비정상 난류유동의 예측 가능성을 체계적으로 규명하였다. 적절한 난류모델의 선정과 더불어 시간 정확도, 공간 정확도 및 대류항 처리법 등이 해석의 결과에 미치는 영향을 살펴 보았다. 기존의 표준 κ-ε모델은 정체점 주위에서 난류생성항의 과도한 예측으로 말미암아 재부착 및 와열생성의 정확한 예측이 불가능 하였으나, RNG κ-ε 모델을 사용한 경우 이와 같은 현상을 제거 할 수 있었다. 그러나 이 경우에도 예측의 정확도가 시간 증분, 격자의 크기 및 대류항 처리법 등에 영향을 받았으며, 특별히 대류항 처리법에 따라 상당히 민감하게 변하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 실리콘 오일을 용매로 사용하여 조성된 전기유동유체의 전기장 부하 변화에 따른 역학적 특성을 고찰하였으며 그응용성에 대하여 연구하였다. 유체에 가해지는 전기장은 0~0.25kV/mm까지 변화시켰고 외부에서 가해지는 회전력은 0∼500rpm까지의 범위로 설정하였으며 용매의 점성계수 및 각각의 용매에 대한 입자 중량비를 달리하여 자체 조성한 4종류의 전기유동유체에 대하여 특성을 고찰하였고, 전기유동유체의 항복응력도 부 하되는 전기장의 함수로 증가함을 알수 있었다. 또한 부하되는 전기장의 크기 뿐만이 아니 라 입자의 중량비 용매의 점성계수도 전기유동유체의 거동에 많은 영향을 미침을 알수 있었 다. 또한, 전기유동유체를 이용한 응용예로서 지능구조물을 제작하여 전기장에 따른 진동특 성변화를 고찰하였다. 실험결과 부하되는 전기장의 강도가 증가함에 따라 구조물의 고유진 동수가 점차적으로 증가하였으며 입자의 중량비가 증가할수록 증가폭이 커 넓은 범위의 제 어영역을 가짐을 알수 있었다. 전기유동유체의 진동제어 이용가능성을 입증하기 위하여 시 간영역에서 구조물의 전기장에 대한 과도 진동제어 응답과 강제진동제어 응답을 실험하였다.

최근 경수로 핵연료 손상 원인 중의 하나인 연료봉 마모(Fretting Wear)가 지지격자의 스프링력 저하뿐만 아니라 원자로 냉각재 유동에 기인한 집합체 진동(Self-excited Fuel Assembly Vibration)에 의해 유발될 수 있는 것으로 밝혀져 해외 연료공급자들은 새로운 연료개발시 집합체 유동시험을 수행하여 냉각재 유동에 의한 집합체 진동 여부를 확인하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 경수로 핵연료집합체에 대한 모드해석 및 진동시험으로부터 고유진동수 및 진동모드형태를 구하여 모의 집합체 유동시험 결과와 비교 평가하였고 냉각재 유동에 의해 과도한 집합체 진동이 발생됨을 확인하였으며 가연성흡수봉집합체를 삽입한 경우에 대한 유동시험 결과와도 비교하였다. 또한, 이들 집합체의 진동 변위량과 손상 연료의 마모량 분포의 상관성을 비교 평가하였다.
