In this paper, wind tunnel tests of a scaled wind turbine have been performed to investigate the effects of turbulent intensity of oncoming flow on turbine wake field. The scaled turbine model was carefully designed to satisfy the similarity conditions. The wind velocities and turbulent intensities were measured using hotwire anemometer in order to compare with existing wake model. It was found from the tests that the existing wake models well fit with test results at turbulent flow rather than at uniform flow. Finally modified wake model has been proposed based on the measured data.

레이놀즈 분해법은 유속을 비롯한 변수를 평균 성분과 변동 성분으로 분해하는 분석 방법으로, 난류 분석의 기본이 되는 방법이다. 그러나 유체 내에 장애물이 존재할 경우, 흐름에 큰 와류가 존재하여 난류 변동 성분과 구분되는 고유 구조가 형성되는데, 이러한 경우에 레이놀즈 분해법을 적용하면 고유 구조의 변동 성분이 난류로 처리되어 난류 강도가 과다하게 책정될 수 있다는 한계점이 있다. 이에 대한 대안으로 제안된 것이, 변수를 평균 성분, 파동 성분, 변동 성분으로 분해하는 삼중 분해법이다. 삼중 분해법은 흐름 내의 고유 구조를 추출하는 것을 가능하게 하여 다양한 연구에서 사용되어왔다. 삼중 분해법을 구현하기 위해 이용되는 방법론 중 하나로, 공분산 행렬을 이용하여 유속장을 분해하는 방법인 적합 직교 분해법이 많이 사용된다. 본 연구에서는 원기둥 후류에 적합 직교 분해법을 사용하여 삼중 분해법을 시행하고, 후류의 흐름 구조를 분석하는 것을 목표로 하였다. 영상 유속계를 사용하여 실험을 통해 원기둥 후류의 수평 유속장을 측정하였고, 측정 자료에 적합 직교 분해법을 적용한 결과, 첫 두 모드에서 큰 규모의 와류가 파동 형태로 전파되는 것이 관찰되어 고유 구조의 존재를 확인할 수 있었다. 해당 성분을 삼중 분해법의 파동 성분으로 상정하였고, 푸리에 분석을 적용한 결과에서도 원기둥 후류의 고유 진동수가 뚜렷하게 나타나는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 원기둥 후류의 에너지 전달 구조를 확인하기 위하여 에너지 방정식에 삼중 분해법을 적용하여 식을 유도하고, 실험 자료로부터 각 항을 계산하여 비교해보았다.

The effect of free stream turbulence on the flow characteristics behind a circular cylinder is investigated in the present experimental study. The various free stream turbulent intensities are generated by different combinations of cylinder locations and grid shapes. Split film sensor with constant temperature anemometer is used to measure the local instantaneous velocity components. Experimental results demonstrate the large scale coherent structures are rapidly distorted and the Strouhal number is decreased with increasing free stream turbulent intensity.

Mean flows and Reynolds stresses through circular and elliptic wire-mesh screens in the wind tunnel are measured by using the hot-wire system, and flow structures are investigated. Flow in the core of the wake are nearly uniform and the shear layer is developed along the edge of the screen The turbulent kinetic energy in the core decreases at the fast rate. However turbulence components are not in local equilibrium in the shear layer. The shear layer of the circular screen develops outward according to the radial mean motion. On the other hand, 3-dimensional transverse mean motion was turned to the main mechanism for the elliptic shape of the wake to be circular at the downstream.

The wake effects behind wind turbines were investigated by using data from a Met Mast tower and the SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system for a wind turbine. The results of the wake investigations and predicted values for the velocity deficit based on the eddy viscosity model were compared with the turbulence intensity from the Lange model. As a result, the velocity deficit and turbulence intensity of the wake increased as the free stream wind speed decreased. In addition, the magnitude of the velocity deficit for the center of the wake using the eddy viscosity model was overestimated while the turbulence intensity from the Lange model showed similarities with measured values.

The flow characteristics around KRISO 300K VLCC double-body model have been experimentally investigated in a closed-type subsonic wind tunnel. The local mean velocity and turbulence statistics including turbulent intensity. Reynolds shear stress and turbulent kinetic energy were measured using a x-type hot-wire probe. The measurements were carried out at several transverse stations of the stern and near wake regions. The surface flow was visualized using on oil-film technique to see the flow pattern qualitatively. The flow in the stern and near wake region revealed complicated three-dimensional flow characteristics. The VLCC model shows a hook-shaped wake structure behind the propeller boss in the main longitudinal vortex region. The thin boundary layer at midship was increased gradually in thickness over the stern and evolved into a full three-dimensional turbulent wake.

복잡지형에서의 풍력단지 CFD 모델링을 통한 시뮬레이션 결과가 이 논문에 주어졌다. 이 연구를 위하여 작은 산(오름)들로 둘러싸인 제주도 성산 풍력단지가 선택되었고, 두 개의 주풍향에 대하여 ANSYS CFX로 시뮬레이션 하였다. 격자생성을 위하여 실제 지형데이터가 사용되었고, 풍력발전기와 복잡지형으로부터 발생하는 후류효과를 예측하기 위하여 SST 난류모델 및 액추에이터 디스크 모델이 적용되었다. 그 결과, 성산 풍력단지 주변에 있는 작은 산 및 풍력발전기에서 발생하는 후류의 영향은 3~7 km 계속된다고 예측되었다. 또한 그 후류는 풍속 및 난류강도에 상당한 영향을 미치고 있다고 예측되었다.

Experimental studies are made of the characteristics of turbulent flow around the propeller shaft in Cavitation Tunnel using a 2-component LDV system. First the flow uniformity and turbulence levels at the test section are measured. The turbulent boundary layer around the propelle shaft and the wakes behind the propeller shaft are also measured. It is shown that the former represents the general turbulent boundary layer around the propeller shaft but the latter represents the complicated flows behind it.

The flor characteristics around the KRISO 3600TEU container ship model have been experimentally investigated in a subsonic wind tunnel. The mean velocity and turbulence characteristics in the stern and wake regions were measured using an x-type hot-wire probe. The flow characteristics in the stern and near wake regions revealed a complicated three-dimensional flow pattern. The measured results showed clearly the formation of longitudinal vortices and their effect on the flow pattern in the wake region. The shear layer developed along the ship model expands showly to the downward direction. The turbulence statistics measured can be used as comparative data of numerical simulations and provide insights into development of accurate turbulence models for the ship design.
