The present experimental and numerical investigations are performed on the characteristics of transitional flow in a concentric annulus with a diameter ratio of 0.52, whose outer cylinder is stationary and inner one rotating. The pressure losses and skin-friction coefficients have been measured for the fully devel-oped flow of water and that of 0.2％ CMC-water solution at a inner cylinder rotational speed of 0∼600 rpm, respectively. The transitional flow has been examined by the measurement of pressure losses to reveal the relation of the Reynolds and Rossby numbers with the skin-friction coefficients. The occurrence of transition has been checked by the gradient changes of pressure losses and skin-friction coefficients with respect to the Reynolds numbers. The increasing rate of skin-friction coefficient due to the rotation is uniform for laminar flow regime, whereas it is suddenly reduced for transitional flow regime and, then, it is gradually decreased for turbulent flow regime.

수제는 유수에 의한 하안 침식을 방지하기 위한 목적의 수공구조물이다. 최근에는 하천복원 및 생태계복원에 대한 관심이 증가되면서, 하안 침식 방지뿐만 아니라 수제에 의한 흐름분리 및 재순환영역의 생태 서식처 제공에 대한 역할이 부각되고 있다. 따라서 수제 설계 시, 수제 설치에 따른 수리특성 변화를 미리 파악하는 것이 필요하지만, 수제 간격, 설치 방향, 수제 높이, 수제 길이, 하도 특성 및 접근 유수 특성 등 다양한 인자에 의해 수리특성 변화를 예측하기란 쉽지 않으며, 비용과 시 공간 측면에서 물리 모형을 이용한 접근법도 용이하지 못하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 2차원 수치모형을 이용하여 수제 설치에 따른 흐름특성 변화를 모의하고, 모형의 적용성을 판별하고자 하였다. 지배 방정식은 기본적으로 천수방정식을 적용하게 되는데, 수제 주변 흐름 특성은 난류에 의한 횡방향 확산이 중요한 인자로작용하게 된다. 상수 와점성(constant eddy viscosity) 모형, 포물선형 와점성 (parabolic eddy viscosity) 모형을통해 개발 모형의예측 결과와 실험수로 결과를 비교하였다. 수제하류의 재순환영역의 길이가 실험수로의 결과에 비해서 5~6 배까지 확대된 결과를 나타내고 있어, 만족할 만한 결과를 현재까지 얻지 못하였다. 횡방향 확산이 중요한 만큼 k-$\varepsilon$ 모형 등 다양한 난류 모형의 적용이 고려되어질 필요가 있으며, 또한 1차원 요소가 아닌 2차원 요소의 적용을 고려할 필요도 있다.

We describe a parallel implementation for the large-eddy simulation(LES) of stratified and rotating turbulence based on MPI. The parallelization strategy is specified by eliminating the tridiagonal solver with explicit method and by domain decompositions for solving the poisson equation. In this simulation we have run on CRAY-T3E under the message passing platform MPI with a various domain decomposition and the scalability of this parallel code of LES are also presented. The result shows that we can gain up to 16 times faster speed up on 64 processors with xyz-directional domain decomposition and scalable up to $128{\times}128{\times}$ which processing time is almost similar to that of $40{\times}40{\times}40$ on a single processor machine with a sequential code.

Numerical simulations of free surface flow over a broad-crested rectangular weir are conducted by using the volume of fraction (VOF) method and three different turbulence models, the k-${\varepsilon}$, RNG k-${\omega}$ and k-${\omega}$ SST models. The governing equations are solved by a second-order accurate finite volume method and the grid sensitivity study of solutions is carried out. The numerical results are evaluated by comparing the solutions with experimental and numerical results of Kirkgoz et al. (2008) and some non-dimensionalized experimental results obtained by Moss (1972) and Zachoval et al. (2012). The results show that the present numerical model can reasonably reproduce the experimental results, while three turbulent models yield different numerical predictions of two distinct zones of flow separation, the first zone is in front of the upstream edge of the weir and the second is created immediately behind the upstream edge of the weir where the flow is separated to form the separation bubble. The standard k-${\varepsilon}$ model appears to significantly underestimate the size of both separation zones and the k-${\omega}$ SST model slightly over-estimates the first separation zone in front of the weir. The RNG k-${\varepsilon}$ model predicts both separation zones in overall good agreement with the experimental measurement, while the k-${\omega}$ SST model yields the best numerical prediction of separation bubble at the upstream edge of the weir.

난류응력은 순간속도성분을 시간평균성분과 편차성분의 합으로 보고 Navier-Stokes 방정식으로부터 Reynolds 방정식을 유도할 때 나타나게 된다. Reynolds 방정식으로부터 수심 적분된 천수방정식을 유도하는 과정에서 시간 평균된 유속성분을 수심 적분된 유속성분과 편차성분의 합으로 본다면, 분산응력 (dispersion stress)이라고 하는 추가적인 새로운 항이 잔류하게 된다. 점성응력, 난류응력, 그리고 분산응력을 통칭하여 유효응력 (effective stress)이라고 한다. 일반적으로 수심에 비해 수로 폭이 넓은 개수로에서는 유효응력이 흐름특성의 수치 근사해에 큰 영향을 미치지 못한다고 가정하여 2차원 수심적분 모형에서 유효응력을 생략하기도 한다. 또한 유효응력을 적용하더라도, 점성응력이 난류응력에 비해 무시할 만큼 작다고 가정하여 난류응력만을 적용하며, 분산응력은 무시된다. 하지만 만곡부에서는 원심력과 편수위로 인한 횡방향 압력의 불균형이 발생하기 때문에, 만곡부의 이차류가 발생되며, 유속의 연직방향 분포도 일정하지 않게 된다. 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 만곡부의 이차류 특성을 수심적분 2차원 모형에 반영하기 위해 분산응력을 고려한 모형의 개발 및 검증이다. 불규칙한 모의영역을 원활히 나타낼 수 있도록 곡선좌표계를 사용하는 여타 모형들과 달리 유한유소법을 이용하여 수치해를 구하며, 따라서 x, y 좌표축을 사용하는 데카르트 좌표계를 사용하여 지배방정식을 나타낸다. 분산응력의 유 무에 따른 수치결과를 Rozovskii의 $180^{\circ}$ 만곡수로 실내실험 자료와 비교하여 개발 모형을 검증한다.

Large eddy simulation code was developed to predict the turbulent flows over backward-facing steps including a recirculating flow phenomena. Localized dynamic ksgs-equation model was employed as a LES subgrid model and the LES solver was implemented on parallel computer consisting of 16 processors to reduce computational costs. The results of laminar flow showed qualitative and quantitative agreements between current simulations and experimental results availablein literatures. The simulation of the turbulent flows also yielded reasonable results. From these results, it can be expected that developed LES code will be very useful to analyze the combustion in stabilities and noise of a practical combustor in the future.

45.deg. corss jet flow, at the mixing of two jet flows, was experimentally studied. For this study, only the statistical turbulent characteristics and high order moments will be analysed by on-line computer system (hot-wire anemometer system, dynamic analyser and computer system, plotting and printing system). Since mean velocity distributions, intensities of turbulence, Reynolds stresses, correlation coefficients, and other general results were already studied and presented. One dimensional probability density distributions of u', v', and w' were analysed comparing with Gaussian curve, which showed skew and flat tendency according to the Y and Z directions. For the analysis of the joint flow of turublent components, the joint probability density distributions were examined. The fagures were drawn so as to be read joint probabilities, joint probability densities, fluctuating velocities u', v', and w'. For further detailed examination of the variations of skewness and flatness phenomena, iso-joint probability density contours obtained from the profiles of the joint probability density distributions were studied. According to the displacement of positions from the center of the mixing flow and the directions, the flatness and skewness factors were increased.

Numerical simulations have been performed for assessment of compressibility correction of two-equation turbulent models suitable for large scale separation flows perturbed by a pintle strokes. Two-equation turbulence models, the low Reynolds k-${\varepsilon}$ and the k-${\omega}$ SST models with or without compressibility correction proposed by Wilcox and Sarkar are evaluated. The detail flow structures are observed and static pressures along nozzle wall are compared with experimental results. Mach disk location and pressure recovery profiles in flow separation region are noticeably distinct between turbulent models of k-${\varepsilon}$ and k-${\omega}$ SST. The compressible effect corrections to those models improve resolving of separation flow behaviors. The compressibility corrections to k-${\varepsilon}$ model have provided very comparable results with test data.

Turbulent Couette flow between coaxial cylinders with inner one rotating has been investigated experimentally and numerically. The radius ratio of the coaxial cylinders is 0.43. Mean velocity and turbulent stresses have been measured by hot-wire anemometer in the range of Reynolds number based on the velocity at rotating wall and the radial distance between walls, 60,900-187,000. For the numerical computation, the Reynolds stress model has been used as a turbulence closure model. Measurements of mean velocity show that the velocity profile of wall layer largely deviates from universal logarithmic law due to the effect of streamline curvature, especially in the region near the stationary outer cylinder. The results computed with the Reynolds stress model agree well with the experimental data in the prediction of circumferential intensity of turbulent fluctuations. However, the computed level of radial intensity is much higher than the measurement. Curvature-corrected versions of the Reynolds stress model improves the prediction of turbulent intensities, but the results are not fully satisfactory.

In the case of multi-function weirs installed in Korea, the free hydraulic jump or the submerged hydraulic jump is occurred depending on the height of the gate opening and the tailwater level when the sluice gate of the movable weir is partially opened. In this study, the submerged hydraulic jump for the flows under the sluice gate were simulated and the mean flow, turbulence statistics, and relative water depth are investigated using numerical simulation. For numerical simulation, the unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equation, volume of fluid method, and k-ωSST turbulence model were used. The numerical model was validated using the results of other researchers' previously performed experiments, and it was investigated that the numerical model appropriately simulates the two-phase flow in the hydraulic jump. In addition, the distribution of mean flow, turbulence statistics, and the length of recirculation region was investigated.
