The Large-scale structure of the circular jet in the transition region, which influences the subsequent flow in the turbulent region, was studied experimentally. Measuring equipments are composed of the two channel hot-wire anemometer, the computer controlled two-directional traverse mechanism, the data acquisition system, and FFT-analyzer. The circular jet has 50mm diameter. The mean velocity distribution, the velocity fluctuation, the auto 'cross correlations and the power spectra were acquired at moderate Reynolds number of 10$^{4}$. And the VITA method was used to measure the convection velocity of Large-scale eddy. The phase of u'is in advance of that of v'in all regions. .over bar. $R_{u}$(.tau.=0) is approximately zero in the potential core region, but a small regular deviation is observed. At a position in the mixing layer region the convection velocity is different along the part of the eddy, and in this experiment the convection velocity of the inner region is larger than the outer region. The averge convection velocity of the eddy along y/D=0 was approximately constant in the transition region.D=0 was approximately constant in the transition region.

The transient response of an airfoil to a rapidly deploying spoiler is numerically investigated using the turbulent compressible Navier-Stokes equations in two dimensions. Algebraic Baldwin-Lomax model, Wilcox $\kappa-\omega$ model, and SST $\kappa-\omega$ turbulence model are used to calculate the unsteady separated flow due to the rapid spoiler deployment. The spoiler motion relative to a stationary airfoil is treated by an overset grid hounded by a Dynamic Domain-Dividing Line which has been devised by the authors. The adverse effects of the spoiler influenced by the spoiler location and the hinge gap are expounded. The numerical results are in reasonably good agreement with the existing experimental data.

In order to compute pressure variation for a water distribution system, an expression for the friction factor as a function of Reynolds number and the relative roughness needs to be properly incorporated in computational algorithm. Considering Moody s friction variation, Developed Unsteady Network Analyzer (UNA) has been modified to match computational results with EPANET 2.0. Substantial improvement can be found in the application of Improved UNA to both an hypothetical pipeline network and a real system located in Ulsan City. Random number generator is employed to represent the uncertainty of water use in real pipeline network. Comparisons of application between EPANET 2.0 and improved UNA 2.0 indicate advantages and potentials of this approach.

Analysis of two-dimensional flow in an involute gear pump has been done by using FLUENT. Analysis extended to the turbulent flow includes the mass flow rate with functions of pressure difference between inlet and outlet, rotational velocities of involute gear, and clearances between tip of gear and housing. In general mass flow rate decreases with decreasing rotational velocity, and with increasing clearance and pressure difference. The flow rate efficiency of gear pump, which is defined with the theoretical flow rate, has been presented in terms of the above parameters.

This report describes the experimental research on the flow phenomena of the aq uaous polymer solution within the Cuette flow of the concentric, cylinders type with a wide circular gap. We have investigated the phenomena of the fluid flow through torque measuring in the system that the inner cylinder is stationary and the outer one is rotating. Geometrical parameters of the system are the gap ratio of t/R$_{0}$=0.2 and Aspect ratio of l/t=100. The torque increases considerably in about 420-480RPM, So, it is considered a turbulent transition boundary, the higher plymer concentration is, the lower torque value is and the higher transition Reynolds number is. In each of the polymer concentration, the unstable boundary of torque, that is, idiosyncrasies of torque is observed around 220-280RPM. and the boundary is looked upon as a resonant vibration which is caused by the inner cylinder and tortional vibration of torque sensor.r.

Wall-bounded 유동과 달리 자유 전단 유동은 Hyperbolic Tangent Profile을 가지고 비점성 불안정에 의해 지배된다. 따라서 자유 전단 유동에서 난류로의 천이과정은 비점성 불안정성 이론에 의해 해석되어 진다. 본 연구는 분리판(Splitter plate)에 의해 분리된 속도가 다른 자유 유속의 혼합에 의해 형성되는 혼합층에서 와류병합과정에 대한 속도비의 영향에 대하여 연구한다. 속도비는, R, $ \frac{U_1-U_2}{U_1+U_2}$ 로 정의되며, 여기서 $U_1$은 분리판 위에서의 자유 유속을 그리고 $U_2$ 는 분리판 아래에서의 자유 유속을 나타낸다. 본 연구에서 와류구조의 병합작용을 분석하기 위하여 2차원 비정상 Large-Eddy Simulation 방법을 적용하였다. 속도비의 변화에 따라 혼합층에서 불안정 Wave가 성장하게 되고, 유체는 2차원 와류구조에서 Roll-up한다. 이러한 2차원 와류구조는 주위의 다른 와류구조와 상호작용을 하게 되고 하나의 커다란 와류구조를 형성하는 것을 볼 수 있다. 혼합층에서 와류병합과정은 반복적으로 일어나는 것을 알 수 있었고, 이 결과를 이용하여 혼합층의 성장을 제어할 수 있다.

The characteristics of involute gear pump with eccentric gap between gear tip and housing have been studied in terms of volumetric flow rate and/or flow efficiency. The analysis has been done with FLUENT/R-13 employing with k-e model for the turbulent flow under the given conditions of rotational velocity, gap distance and outlet pressure. The effect of parameters continues to be shown for the eccentric gear as same as for the concentric gear such that the volumetric flow rate (volumetric efficiency) increases as the increases of rotational velocity and decrease of gap distance and of outlet pressure. In the meantime, the shape of pressure build-up appears to be exponentially increase as gap distance decreases at upstream position. The pressure is rapidly developing in the upstream and remains almost constant thereafter in the downstream of circumferential flow path. This typical characteristics becomes more profound as eccentricity increases. The pump performance for the eccentric gear pump with minimum gap distance shows better than its concentric counterpart. However, it shows not for the concentric pump with minimum gap distance. Therefore, the gap reduction due to eccentricity may be positive for pump performance.

This study is an experimental analysis for local scour of the riverbed at pier. The basic equation with dimensionless elements(Pier Reynolds Number, Dimensionless Turbulence Intensity) is derived through dimensional analysis. After testing the goodness of fit of data, the coefficients are determined by multiple regression analysis. In the region where the value of the attack angle is near 20 degrees, there exists a transition region where the slope of equation with Pier Reynolds Number changes from positive to negative and that of equation with Dimensionless Turbulence Intensity changes from negative to positive adversely. As a result of testing the equation suggested on this study by using the data of the Institute of National Construction, it is found that the scour depth and width at pier can be predicted approximately.

The two dimensional PIV (particle image velocimetry) measurement technique is applied to water flow in a narrow cavitation tunnel. The nearly homogeneous and isotropic turbulent flows are generated by the honeycomb installed in the tunnel and visualized with a PIV technique. The velocities in the measurement plane at the tunnel centerline 184cm downward from the honeycomb were measured and calculated by an image correlation technique. The turbulent properties are evaluated and each term in the turbulent kinetic energy equation is calculated for the conditions with different internal pressures. Lowering the internal pressure gives an effect on the turbulent flow due to growing bubbles which are resolved in the water. The turbulent kinetic energy in the measurement plane is decayed much slower than those of other research results carried out with wind tunnels. With decreasing the tunnel internal pressures the turbulent intensities are increased about 1.5 times and the anisotropic tendency is also increased.

In this study, it was experimentally investigated the effect of the clearances distance between the rod and the impinging plate on characteristics of the thermal flow. For the heat transfer enhancement of wall jet region, the right triangle and the square rods were arranged in front of the impinging plate with various clearance distances. As results, the heat transfer enhancement rate of potential core region at H/B=2 was higher than that of transition region at H/B=10. In this experiment range, the maximum heat transfer enhancement rate was about 46 % higher at the square rod with H/B=2 and C=1mm compared with the flat plate. The heat transfer enhancement rate of the right triangle rod was on average about 3 to 8 % higher than that of the square rod, regardless of the clearance.
