Large eddy simulations of transitional flows around a stud installed on a flat plate have been performed to investigate an influence of grid resolution on turbulence stimulation by the stud. Because streamwise vortical structures generated by the stud played an important role in turbulence stimulation of boundary layer, streamwise vorticity was compared in the wake region behind the stud when the number of grids increased or decreased by a ratio of ${\sqrt{2}}$ in streamwise, wall-normal and spanwise directions respectively. The streamwise vorticity was shown to be mainly affected by spanwise grid resolution (${\Delta}z^+$) rather than streamwise and wall-normal grid resolution. In a viewpoint of numerical efficiency as well as physical resolution, ${\Delta}x^+{_{min}}=7.6$, ${\Delta}x^+{_{max}}=41$, ${\Delta}y^+{_{wall}}=0.25$ and ${\Delta}z^+=7.6$ was found to be desirable. Once a grid resolution was determined in each direction, a grid verification was carried out by increasing or decreasing the grid resolution y a ratio of ${\sqrt{2}}$ in all directions. The grid uncertainties of pressure and drag coefficients were 21.6 % and 2.8 % while the corrected uncertainties were 2 % and 0.3 %, respectively.

국지성 집중호우에 따른 도심지 내수 침수 피해의 주원인으로 하수관거의 설계기준을 초과하는 강우가 침수피해의 주요 원인이며, 도심화로 인해 불투수 면적이 증가함에 따라 유출되는 시간이 짧아 저지대의 피해는 불가피하다. 2010년과 2011년에 100년 이상의 강우사상이 서울시에 연이어 나타나면서 집중호우로 인한 피해지역이 유사하게 나타났으며, 광화문 거리의 연이은 침수는 현재 서울시의 하수관거의 용량과 빗물펌프장 및 저류조 시설로 구성된 기존 수방대책의 한계점을 보이고 있다. 이에 서울시는 광화문 일대의 배수능력을 향상시키기 위하여 효자배수분구 빗물배수터널을 계획하고 있다. 일본, 미국 및 유럽 등지에서는 대심도 지하수로 시설에 대한 수리실험 및 수치 연구를 바탕으로 다양한 지하방수로가 건설되어 국지성 집중 강우에 대해 적절히 대응하고 있으나, 국내의 경우에는 대심도 지하방수로 시설에 대한 연구가 미비하여 지하방수로 설계 지침 및 기술적 자료가 부족한 실정이다. 그러므로 대심도 빗물배수터널 시설에서의 흐름특성 분석에 관한 수리실험 및 수치해석 등의 구체적인 연구가 필요하다고 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 수리모형 실험의 물질적 및 시간적 한계를 극복하기 위하여 일반적으로 3차원 유체거동의 특성분석에 많이 사용되는 Fluent 6.3 모형을 이용하여 대심도 빗물배수터널 시설의 접선식 유입구에 대한 흐름특성을 수치모의 하였다. 접선식 유입구 및 수직갱(drop shaft)에 대한 기하 모형의 격자망은 수치해석의 안정성 확보를 위하여 그림 1과 같이 6면체 격자로 구성하였다. 맨홀 내의 다상유동을 고려하기 위하여 VOF(Volume of Fluid) Scheme을 적용하였으며, 수치해석 방법으로는 비정상류, 1st order implicit method를 사용하였다. Fluent에서의 난류 흐름을 계산하는 방법에는 난류 운동에너지와 난류 에너지 소산율 $\epsilon$의 전달 방정식을 도입한 k-$\epsilon$ 난류 모형을 채택하였다.

When pipe components made of carbon steel in nuclear, fossil, and industry plants are exposed to flowing fluid, wall thinning caused by FAC(flow accelerated corrosion) can be generated and eventually ruptured at the position of pressure boundary. The aim of this study is to identify the locations at which local wall thinning occurs and to determine the turbulence coefficient related to local wall thinning. Experiment and numerical analyses for the tee sections of down scaled piping components were performed and the results were compared. In particular, flow visualization experiment which was used alkali metallic salt was performed to find actual location of local wall thinning inside tee components. In order to determine the relationship between turbulence coefficients and local wall thinning, numerical analyses were performed for tee components in the main feedwater systems. The turbulence coefficients based on the numerical analyses were compared with the local wall thinning based on the measured data. From the comparison of the results, the vertical flow velocity component(Vr) flowing to the wall after separating in the wall due to the geometrical configuration and colliding with the wall directly at an angle of some degree was analogous to the configuration of local wall thinning.

In this paper, the author investigate viscous effects on the characteristics of TP620 hydrofoil. The pressure distribution on the foil section in non-cavitating flow should be considered its characteristics of displacement thickness due to viscous effects. Theoretical potential theory, which neglects viscous effects do not agree with this analysis, especially at leading edge region of the foil. And, the efficiency of TP620 hydrofoil considering viscous effects is a little lower than that of the foil, which neglected viscous effects.

Software has been developed for simulating particle dispersion in a circular pipe with sudden-expansion, which models the fuel feeding system of a combustor that uses metal powder like aluminum as fuel. The Lagrangian based discrete tracer point method was employed for a plug flow of particles that satisfies local turbulent velocity fluctuations. A radial velocity component was created to improve the flow turning outwards in the recirculation zone. The particle distribution patterns from both with and without the component were directly compared with the experiments near the reattachment.

A computational analysis of nozzle flow is conducted to investigate effects of the flight altitude on thrust performance. Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equation with k-${\omega}$ SST(Shear Stress Transport) turbulence model is employed to simulate the nozzle flow in various altitude conditions, where continuum mechanics is to be valid. Thrust performance of the nozzle is exceedingly poor upto 10 km of flight altitude because of the irreversible phenomena such as shock and/or flow separation occurring inside the nozzle, whereas it is restored to the nominal value as the altitude is attained higher than 30 km.

A computational fluid dynamics simulation of pyrotechnic material combustion inside a cylindrical closed vessel was carried out using the Eulerian-Lagrangian method. The 5th order upwind WENO scheme and the improved delayed detached eddy turbulence model were implemented to capture shock waves. The flow structure was analyzed inside the cylindrical vessel with a pressure sensor installed at the side wall center. The analysis revealed that the pressure oscillated because of the shock wave vibration. Additionally, the simulation results with four different sensor tab depths implied that, inside the sensor tab, eddies were generated by the excessively large gap between the sensor diaphragm and the side wall. These eddies caused irregularity to the measured time-pressure curve, which is an undesirable characteristic.

A thermo-fluid dynamic analysis was performed through the numerical simulation of a missile canister. Calculation was made in a fixed analytical volume and fully evaporated water was used as a coolant. To analyze the interaction among the hot gas, coolant, and mixture flow, Realizable $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence and VOF(Volume Of Fluid) model were chosen and parametric study was performed with the change of coolant flow rate. It could be found that the pressure on the canister top nonlinearly increased with the increase of coolant flow rate. Temperature and coolant distribution were closely related to the flow behavior in canister. Temperature on the canister bottom indicated a decrease being proportional to coolant flow rate in early times but after a specific time, the temperature increased with the tendency being reversed. In addition, the early part of temperature showed a fluctuating phenomenon because of the overall circulatory flow of mixture gas.

Turbulent boundary-layer over a micro-riblet film(MRF) was investigated experimentally. The MRF has sharp V-shaped micro scale grooves of $300{\mu}m$ in width and $176.8{\mu}m$ in height. Particle image velocimetry(PIV) system was employed to measure velocity fields of flow over the MRF coated plate. Flow over a smooth plate was also measured for comparison. The PIV measurements were taken in the streamwise wall-normal planes at Re$\theta$= 985 and 2342. Vortex structures of the flow were analyzed by extracting the swirling strength as an unambiguous vortex-identification criterion. As a result the number of spanwise vortices with clockwise(negative) rotation decreases rapidly in the near-wall region(y<0.2h), but decreases slowly in the outer region(0.2h

This study presents the wave run-up height around single and multiple surface-piercing cylinders according to wave period and steepness. In order to simulate 3D incompressible viscous two-phase turbulent flow, the present study employed a volume of fluid (VOF) method with realizable $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model based on commercial Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software, "STAR-CCM". The wave periods at model scale were 1.269s and 1.692s for a single cylinder and 1.716s for multiple cylinders. In each case, wave steepness of has 1/30 and 1/16 were used, respectively. Consequently, the results for wave run-up height with regard to wave steepness and period were compared with those of relevant previous experimental studies. The numerical simulation results showed a good qualitative agreement with experiments.
