In this study, we have discussed about the effect of hydrofoil arrangement and longitudinal moment characteristic on longitudinal motion stability of fully-submerged hydrofoil by the experiment of tandem hydrofoil model. First of all, tandem hydrofoil model that has canard wing arrangement has been made and characteristics of lift force and drag force by performing the lift force and drag force measuring experiment has also been estimated. Besides, tandem hydrofoil model's wing arrangement which has the initial stability and self stability of longitudinal motion has also been determined. In longitudinal stability experiment of tandem hydrofoil model, the motion characteristic of pitch and heave and the longitudinal stability of foil borne condition by variation of self stability of longitudinal moment and longitudinal distance are estimated. The result from the experiment and it's important conclusion can be described as below; Increase the self stability for longitudinal moment, the higher self stability for pitch motions in a constant pitch angles. By increasing the self stability for longitudinal moment, the range of fluctuation of pitch motion and heave motion for pitch angle also will change relatively small and longitudinal stability is excellent. Lastly, when the lift force of hydrofoil is remain constants, we can conclude that securing the enough self stability for longitudinal moment is essential for stable foil borne condition of tandem hydrofoil.

The steady-state aerodynamic characteristics of wings on the formation flight were analyzed using the Vortex Lattice Method. When two wings were at formation flight, the sectional lift coefficient of a rear wing was increased due to a front wing. The result showed that the lift drag ratio increased as the rear wing were placed downward and decreased as the lateral spacing between wings increased. The difference of lift drag ratio between forward wing and rear wing increase as the aspect ratio of wings increased. When a rear wings and a forward wings placed at the same height, wings on the formation flight had the maximum lift drag ratio. The results showed that the benefit of the formation flight increased as the number of wings on the formation flight increased.

The aerodynamic characteristics of FAST(Future Air Speed Transit) combined the body with tandem wing flying over nonplanar ground surface are investigated by using a boundary element method. To validate the present method, results of the present analysis are compared with the experiment and other numerical results. The arrangement of the tandem wing is determined to secure sufficient aero-levitation force and the stability through the analysis of the aerodynamic characteristics of the FAST. The FAST has the maximum lift characteristics when the tandem wing with lower endplate is located at the front side and the rear side of the body. The stability of the FAST can be secured by using the flaperon of the tandem wing.

Longitudinal static stability and steady aerodynamic characteristics of wings flying over nonplanar ground surfaces (rail and channel) are investigated using the boundary-element method. For a channel with it's fence higher than the wing height, the lift and the nose-down pitching moment increase as the gap between the wingtip and the fence decreases. For a rail with it's width wider than the wing span, the lift and the nose-down pitching moment increase as the rail height decreases. Longitudinal static stability of a single wing flying over nonplanar surfaces is worse than the case of the flat ground. In case of tandem wings, longitudinal static stability of the wings flying over the channel is better than the case of the flat ground. It is believed that the present results can be applied to the conceptual design of high-speed ground transporters.

In this study, an arrangement design process for multiple wind turbines, placed on the 10MW class floating wave-offshore wind hybrid power generation system, was presented, and the aerodynamic performance was evaluated by using a computational fluid dynamics. An arrangement design, which produces a maximum power in the site wind field, was found by using a commercial program, WindPRO, based on a blade element momentum theory, then the effect of wake interference on the system between multiple wind turbines was studied and evaluated by using ANSYS CFX.

유동 교란에 의하여 균일유동이 아닌 자유류가 항공기 날개 표면을 지나면 공력 계수들이 균일 자유류 유동과는 달라진다. 예를 들어, 항공기들의 편대 비행에서 앞의 항공기가 생성한 후류가 뒷 항공기에 영향을 주고, 두 개의 주익을 가지는 Tandem Wing 항공기의 경우 첫 번째 주익에서 발생된 후류가 두 번째 주익의 공력에 영향을 미친다. 본 연구는 NACA0012 익형의 앞쪽에 또 다른 익형을 배치하여 앞 쪽의 익형에서 발생한 후류가 뒤의 익형에 미치는 영향을 익형 사이의 거리에 따라 분석하였다. 앞쪽의 익형에서 발생한 압력계수와 뒤쪽에서 발생한 압력계수의 비교를 통해 후류의 효과가 어떤 영향을 끼치는지 확인 하였고, 두 익형 사이의 거리가 2c일 때 후류의 영향이 거의 없음을 확인 하였다.

수직이착륙, 영어로는 VTOL(Vertical Take-Off and Landing)이라 불리는 기술은 공기역학을 거부한 첨단 항공우주기술이다. 일반적으로 고정익 항공기는 날개에서 발생하는 양력으로 하늘을 날지만 VTOL 항공기는 순수한 엔진 추력만으로 수직으로 이착륙하거나 단거리에서 이륙할 수 있다. 다만 높은 기술적 완성도를 요구하는 만큼 현재까지 실전 배치된 군용기 중 이 기술이 적용된 군용기는 해리어(Harrier)와 V-22 오스프리(Osprey), Yak-38 정도가 고작이다. 수직이착륙 기술에 대해 소개한다.

본 연구에서는 CFD 해석 프로그램 EDISON_CFD를 통하여 2차 세계 대전에 소련에서 제작한 복엽기 AN-2의 기체를 기본 모델로 하여 설제 기체에 사용된 TSAGI P-II-14 airfoil를 이용, 기본 모델의 상단 주익과 미익은 고정하고 하단 주 날개의 위치를 변화시켜 공력특성을 분석하였다. 익형의 평행배치의 경우 기본모델에 비해 양력은 적은 크기로 증가하나 항력이 급격히 증가하여 가장 양항비가 낮은 비효율적인 공력 해석 결과를 보였고 복염기 하단 주익의 돌출은 상단 주익의 돌출에 비해 미세한 양력 감소와 항력 증가를 보여 양항비가 감소하는 현상을 보였다. 상, 하단 주익의 상하 간격이 커질수록 양력은 중가, 항력은 감소하며 간격이 작아질수록 양력의 감소와 항력의 증가를 보였다. 본 연구 해석 결과에 따라 순항조건에서의 익형은 상,하 주익간 수직 간격을 넓게 배치하는 것이 가장 효율적으로 볼 수 있다.

During the initial stage of propulsion shaft design, the shaft alignment process includes a thorough consideration of lateral vibration to verify the operational safety of the shaft. However, a theoretical method for analyzing forced lateral vibrations has not been clearly established. The methods currently used in classification societies and international standards can only ensure a sufficient margin to avoid the blade-passing frequency resonance speed outside the range of ${\pm}20%$ of the maximum continuous rating (MCR) for the engine. Typically, in shaft alignment analyses, longer center distances between the support bearings promote affirmative results, but the blade order resonance speed can approach the lower limit for lateral vibration. Therefore, this matter requires careful attention by engineers, and a verification of the theoretical analysis by experimental measurements is highly desirable. In this study, both theoretical and experimental analyses were conducted using strain gauges under two draught conditions of vessels used as 50,000-DWT oil/chemical tankers, introduced recently as eco-friendly ships. Based on the analyses, the influence of the lateral vibration on the shafting system and the system's reliability was reviewed.

Numerical investigations have been conducted on the junction that connect the multi-tubular section and the single shell section in order to evaluate applicability of hybrid sections in wind turbine towers instead of conventional single shell towers. Major characteristics in structural details include extension of multi-tubular member into shell end section, installation of wing stiffeners, and different layout of floor beams. Elastic and nonlinear incremental analyses were conducted to examine stress concentration patterns and ultimate behaviors, respectively. Based on evaluation of structural performance due to vertical and horizontal forces, it has been confirmed that installation of floor beams and wing stiffeners sensitively affect ultimate strength of global wind tower.
