Using DNS data for turbulent flows in an open-channel with sidewalls, the mechanisms by which secondary flows are generated and by which Reynolds shear stresses are created, are demonstrated. Near the sidewall, secondary flows invading towards the sidewall are observed in the regions of both lower and upper corners, while secondary flows ejecting from the sidewall towards the center of the channel are created elsewhere. The distributions of Reynolds shear stresses near the sidewall are analyzed, connecting their productions with coherent structures. A quadrant analysis shows that sweeps are dominant in two corner regions where secondary flows invading towards the sidewall are generated, but that ejections are dominant in the region where secondary flows ejecting towards the center of the channel are created. Also, conditional quadrant analyses reveal that the productions of Reynolds shear stresses and the patterns of secondary flows are determined by the directional tendencies of coherent structures.

일반적으로 식생흐름의 층 적분 모형은 층의 수에 따라 2층 및 3층 모형으로 구분한다. 즉, 전체 수심을 식생영역과 상부영역으로 구분하는 2층 모형과 식생영역을 바닥 조도의 영향 유무에 따라 내부 및 외부 식생영역으로 구분하는 3층 모형으로 나뉜다. 본 연구에 사용된 수리실험 자료는 기존의 연세대학교에서 수행한 실험결과를 이용하여 각 모형의 정확성을 예측해 보았다. 다양한 실험조건에 적용한 결과, 3층 모형이 식생영역에서 유속의 변화를 고려할 수 있지만 레이놀즈응력의 영향에 민감하고, 적분된 유속은 2층 모형에 의한 예측 결과가 더욱 정확하였다. 3층 모형에서는 내부 식생영역의 결과는 전체흐름구조에 미미한 영향을 미치므로 무시할 수 있으며, 이를 바탕으로 식생영역에서 유속 변화가 고려되는 수정 2층 모형을 제시하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 기존의 2층 모형과 3층 모형의 장점을 취합하여 수정된 2층 모형의 방정식을 바탕으로 모형의 정확성을 평가하기 위하여 2층 모형, 3층 모형, 수정 2층 모형의 유속 분포를 비교 분석하여 모형을 검증하였다.

Reynolds averaged Wavier-Stokes simulations based on the Reynolds stress model was performed to investigated the effect of inlet flow angle on the distributions of the Reynolds stress tensor inside tip leakage vortex of a linear compressor cascade. Two different inlet flow angles ${\beta}=29.3^{\circ}$(design condition) and $36.5^{\circ}$(off-design condition) were considered. Stress tensor analysis, which transforms the Reynolds stress into the principal direction, was applied to show an anisotropy of the normal stresses. Whereas the anisotropy was highest in the region where the tip leakage vortex collides the suction side of the blade and tip leakage flow enters between blade tip of the pressure side and the endwall, it had the lowest value at the center of tip leakage vortex. It was also found that the magnitude of maximum shear stress at design condition was greater than that of off-design condition.

The temporal distribution of the turbulence kinetic energy (TKE) and the vertical component of Reynolds stresses ($-{\bar{u^{\prime}w^{\prime}}}$) was measured during one wave period under high wave energy conditions. The wave data were obtained at Hujeong Beach in the east coast of Korea at January 14~18 of 2017 when an extratropical cyclone was developed in the East Sea. Among the whole thousands of waves measured during the period, hundreds of regular waves that had with similar pattern were selected for the analysis in order to give three representing mean wave patterns using the ensemble average technique. The turbulence properties were then estimated based on the selected wave data. It is interesting to find out that $-{\bar{u^{\prime}w^{\prime}}}$ has one clear peak near the time of flow reversal while TKE has two peaks at the corresponding times of maximum cross-shore velocity magnitudes. The distinguished pattern of Reynolds stress indicates that vertical fluxes of such properties as suspended sediments may be enhanced at the time when the horizontal flow direction is reversed to disturb the flows, supporting the turbulence convection process proposed by Nielsen (1992). The characteristic patterns of turbulence properties are examined using the CADMAS-SURF Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) model. Although the model can reasonably simulate the distribution of TKE pattern, it fails to produce the $-{\bar{u^{\prime}w^{\prime}}}$ peak at the time of flow reversal, which indicates that the application of RANS model is limited in the prediction of some turbulence properties such as Reynolds stresses.

An experiment was carried out to figure out the turbulence flow characteristics in the wake of the transom stern's 2-dimensional section by 2-frame grey level cross correlation PIV method at Re= $3.5{\times}10^3$, Re= $7.0{\times}10^3$. The angles of transom stern are $45^{\circ}$(Model "A"), $90^{\circ}$(Model "B") and $135^{\circ}$(Model "C") respectively. The depth of wetted surface is 40mm from free surface. Strong turbulence intensity appears at the interaction between the flow separation of the bottom of a model and the free surface. This study provides statistic flow information such as turbulence intensity, Reynolds stress and turbulence kinetic energy. Model C type (Raked transom) has low Reynolds stress and turbulence kinetic energy.

This paper presents a turbulence modeling of the open-channel flows over smooth-rough bed strips. A Reynolds stress model is used for the turbulence closure. The simulated mean flow and turbulence structures are compared with the previously reported experimental data. Comparisons reveal that the developed Reynolds stress model successfully predicts the mean flow and turbulence structures of open-channel flows over smooth-rough bed strips. The computed flow vectors show cellular secondary currents, of which the upflow occurs over the smooth bed strip and the downflow over the rough bed strip. It is found that the cellular secondary currents affect the mean flow and turbulence structure. A budget analysis of the streamwise vorticity equation is also carried out to investigate the mechanism by which the secondary currents are generated.

자연하천에 존재하는 식생은 동식물에게 주거지를 제공할 뿐만 아니라 영양염류 흡착 및 정화작용을 통해 수질을 개선시키는 역할을 한다. 이러한 식생하천에 오염물질이 유입될 경우 식생에 의한 흐름 교란 작용으로 인해 오염물의 확산거동에 큰 영향을 주게 된다. 본 연구에서는 식생하천에서의 오염물질 혼합특성을 분석하기 위해 식생모형 실험을 수행하였고, Fischer et al (1979)이 제시한 이론식을 실험결과에 적용하여 종분산계수를 산정하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 자연하천을 재현하기 위해 실험수로에 수중식생 모형을 설치한 후 ADV-Vectrino유속계를 이용하여 유속을 측정하였으며 실험을 통해 식생흐름에서의 유속분포 자료를 취득하고 이를 바탕으로 종분산계수를 산정하였다. 먼저 수중 식생흐름에서 연직유속분포를 측정한 결과, 식생이 존재하는 바닥근처에서는 유속이 느리다가 비식생 구간으로 가면서 유속이 증가하는 분포를 나타낸다. 또한 이 설치된 테스트 구간에 밀도와 유량변화에 따른 케이스를 적용하여 비교 및 분석을 한 결과 식생 밀도를 고정시키고 유량을 증가 시켰을 때 식생구간과 식생이 없는 구간에서의 유속도 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 유량을 고정시키고 식생의 밀도를 순차적으로 높였을 경우 식생구간에서의 유속이 점차적으로 줄어드는 경향을 보였다. 다음으로 분산계수를 결정하는 방법에는 농도자료를 이용하는 방법과 유속자료를 이용하는 방법이 있는데 본 연구에서는 유속자료를 Fischer et al. (1979)의 이론식에 적용하여 분산계수를 산정하는 방법을 적용하였다. Fischer et al. (1979)가 제시한 식에서 먼저 전단 유속 값을 산정하기 위해 벽법칙 (Karman, 1930), 레이놀즈 전단응력 그리고, 난류운동에너지 (Graf, 1998) 방법을 사용한 후 복잡한 난류 흐름에 적용하기 가장 적합하다는 난류운동에너지 방법을 적용하여 전단 응력이 가장 크게 나온 식생모델 끝단에서의 값을 사용하였다. 그 결과, 수중 식생이 존재하는 흐름에서 무차원화 시킨 종분산계수는 6.89-9.78로 나타났다, 이는 Elder (1959)의 수심 적분을 통해 제시한 종분산계수 값 5.93보다 크다. 즉, 수중 식생이 존재할 경우 종분산계수는 식생이 존재 하지 않을 때 보다 증가하는 것으로 보여 진다.

Open-channel flows with submerged vegetation show two distinct flow structures in the vegetation and upper layers. That is, the flow in the vegetation layer is featured by relatively uniform mean velocity with suppressed turbulence from shear, while the flow in the upper layer is akin to that in the plain open-channel. Due to this dual characteristics, the flow has drawn many hydraulic engineers' attentions. This study compares layer-averaged models for flows with submerged vegetation. The models are, in general, classified into two-layer and three-layer models. The two-layer model divides the flow depth into vegetation and upper layers, while the three-layer model further divides the vegetation layer into inner and outer vegetation layers depending on the influence of the bottom roughness. This study compares the two-layer model and the three layer-model. It is found that the two-layer model predicts better the average value of the velocity and the prediction by the three-layer model is sensitive to Reynolds shear stress. In the three-layer model, the mean flow in the inner vegetation layer does not affect the flow seriously, which motivates the proposal of the modified two-layer model. The two-layer model, capable of predicting non-uniform mean velocity, is based on the Reynolds stress which is linear and of power form in the upper and vegetation layers, respectively. Application results reveal that the modified two-layer model predicts the mean velocity at an accuracy similar to the two- and three-layer models, but it predicts poorly in the case of very low vegetation density.

This paper presents a numerical investigation of the impact of the secondary currents on solute transport in open-channel flows. The RANS model with Reynolds stress model is used for flow modeling, and the GGDH(generalized gradient diffusion hypothesis) model is used to close the scalar transport equation. Using the developed model, the impact of secondary currents on solute transport in open channel flows over smooth-rough strip is investigated. Through numerical experiments, the secondary currents are found to affect the solute spreading, leading a movement of the position of the peak concentration and a skewed distribution of solute concentration. Due to the lateral flow of secondary currents near the free surface, the concentration at the rough strip is found to be larger than that at the smooth strip bed. The solute at the rough strip is more rapidly transported than smooth bed. A magnitude analysis of the solute transport rate in scalar transport equation is also carried out to investigate the effect of secondary currents and scalar flux on the concentration distribution.

A steady-state Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes simulation was conducted to investigate the distribution of the Reynolds stress tensor inside tip leakage vortex of a linear compressor cascade. Two different inlet flow angles ${\beta}=29.3^{\circ}$(design condition) and $36.5^{\circ}$(off-design condition) at a constant tip clearance size of $1\%$ blade span were considered. Classical methods of solid mechanics, applied to view the Reynolds stress tensor in the principal direction system, clearly showed that the high anisotropic feature of turbulent flow field was dominant at the outer part of tip leakage vortex near the suction side of the blade and endwall flow separation region, whereas a nearly isotropic turbulence was found at the center of tip leakage vortex. There was no significant difference in the anisotropy of the Reynolds normal stresses inside tip leakage vortex between the design and off-design condition.
