In this study, the numerical analysis for laminar and turbulent flows around a circular cylinder is carried out from Reynolds number $10^4\;to\;10^6$, where the dramatic change of drag coefficients exists around Reynolds number $4{\times}10^5$. The numerical results are compared with those of the experiments and they show reasonable agreements. The good results can be obtained without turbulent model by minimizing mesh size in the body normal direction and increasing mesh numbers in the body tangential direction. The future study for 2-dimensional flat plates with no pressure gradients and 3-dimensional bodies must be made to verify whether the same conclusions can be drawn.

An experimental study of jet impinging the non-isothermal heating surface with linear temperature gradient is conducted with the presentation of the turbulent flow characteristics and the heat transfer rate, represented by the Nusselt number. The jet Reynolds number ranges from 15,000 to 30,000, the temperature gradient of the plate is 2~4.2$^{\circ}C$/cm and the dimensionless nozzle to plate distance (H/D) is from 2 to 10. The results show that the peak of heat transfer rate occurs at the stagnation point, and the heat transfer rate decreases as the radial distance from the stagnation point increases. A remarkable feature of the heat transfer rate is the existence of the second peak. This is due to the turbulent development of the wall jet. Maximum heat transfer rate occurs when the axial distance from the nozzle to nozzle diameter (H/D) is 6 or 8. The heat transfer rate can be correlated as a power function of Prandtl number, Reynolds number, the dimensionless nozzle to plate distance (H/D) and temperature gradient (dT/dr). It has been found that the heat transfer rate increases with increasing turbulent intensity. The wall jet is influenced by temperature gradient and the effect becomes more important at higher radii.

A low-Reynolds-number second moment turbulence closure was developed with the aid of DNS data. Model coefficients of nonlinear return to isotropy term were derived by use of Cayley-Hamilton theorem and two component turbulence limit condition as the functions of invariances of anisotropy and turbulent Reynolds number. Launder and Tselepidakis' cubic mean pressure strain model was modified to fit the predicted pressure-strain components to the DNS data. Two component turbulence limit condition was the precondition to be satisfied in developing the second moment turbulence closure for the realizable Reynolds stress prediction. But the satisfactions of Reynolds stress level and pressure-strain level of each component were compromised because the satisfaction of both levels was impossible.

The effect of roughness is a change in the velocity and turbulence distributions near the surface. Turbulence models with surface roughness effect are applied to the fully developed flow in a two-dimensional, rough wall channel. Modified wall function model, low-Reynolds number k-$\varepsilon$ model, and k-$\omega$ model are selected for comparison. In order to make a fair comparison, the calculation results are compared with the experimental data. The modified wall function model and the low-Reynolds number k-$\varepsilon$ model require further refinement, while the k-$\omega$ model of Wilcox performs remarkably well over a wide range of roughness values.

Fully developed turbulent flow in a square duct is numerically predicted with two nonlinear low-Reynolds-number ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ models. Typical predicted quantities such as axial and secondary velocities, turbulent kinetic energy and Reynolds stresses are compared in detail with each other. It is found that the nonlinear low-Reynolds-number ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ model adopted in a commercial code is unable to predict accurately duct flows involving turbulence-driven secondary motion with the prediction level of secondary flows one order less than that of the experiment.

현대에 이르러 초경량 무인 비행기에 대한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 이러한 비행체는 저레이놀즈수 영역에서 사용되는 특성으로 인해, 경계층 내에서 박리현상과 난류영역으로의 천이 등과 같은 여러 복합적인 현상을 발생시킴으로써 비행체의 공력특성에 큰 영향을 미친다. Bumpy Airfoil은 저레이놀즈수 유동에서의 이와 같은 문제를 해결하기 위해 제안된 익형이다. 따라서 본 논문은 전산열유체해석 프로그램인 EDISON_전산열유체를 이용하여 Bumpy Airfoil 형상에 대한 공력특성을 연구하였고, 발생하는 양항비를 원 익형과 비교하였다. 비압축성 조건 내에서, 공력 성능 향상을 위한 Bumpy Airfoil의 형상 변수로 Bump 개수와 높이를 선정하여 받음각에 따른 유동장을 분석하고 양항비를 수치해석 및 고찰하였다.

The most common approach for computing engineering flow problems at high Reynolds number is still the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) computations based on turbulence models with wall functions. The recently developed generalized wall functions blending between the wall-limiting viscous and the outer logarithmic relations ensure a smooth transition of flow quantities across two regions. The performances and convergence properties of widely used turbulence models with wall functions that are applicable for turbulence kinetic energy (TKE), turbulent and specific dissipation rates, and eddy viscosity are presented through a series of near wall flow simulations. The present results show that RNG k-𝜖 model should be carefully applied with small tolerance to get the stable solution when the first grid lies in the buffer layer. The standard k-𝜖 and RNG k-𝜖 models are not sensitive to the selection of wall functions for both TKE and eddy viscosity, while the k-ω SST model should be applied together with kL-wall function for TKE and nutUB-wall functions for eddy viscosity to ensure accurate and stable boundary conditions. The applications to a backward-facing step flow at Re=155,000 reveal that the reattachment length is reasonably well predicted on appropriately refined mesh by all turbulence models, except the standard k-𝜖 model which about 13% underestimates the reattachment length regardless of the grid refinement.

측벽이 존재하는 개수로 난류흐름에 대한 DNS 자료를 이용하여 난류의 비등방성을 해석하였다. 측벽의 2등분선(sidewall bisector)에서 난류강도의 분포를 통해 바닥과 자유수면에서의 비등방성을 분석하고, AIM을 도입하여 흐름장 전반에 걸쳐 세부적인 비등방성 해석을 수행하였다. 측벽의 2등분선에서의 난류강도의 분포를 통해 바닥과 자유수면 근처에서 난류강도가 강한 비등방성을 갖는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 또한 3개의 다른 영역에서 AIM의 도입을 통해 측벽이나 바닥근처에서는 난류의 비등방성이 구형 관수로 흐름과 유사한 것으로 나타났으나, 개수로 난류흐름의 주된 특성이 velocity-dip phenomena가 존재하는 영역에서는 구형 관수로 흐름과는 달리 천이영역이 존재한다는 것을 알 수 있었다.
