In the present study, the flow behaviors of square jets surface discharged and submerged discharged into shallow water were each simulated using computational fluid dynamics, and the results were compared. As for the verification of the models, the results of the hydraulic experiment conducted by Sankar, et al. (2009) were used. According to the results of the verification, the present application of computational fluid dynamics to the flow analysis of square jets discharged into shallow water was valid. As for the wall jet, which is one form of submerged discharges, at the bottom wall boundary, the peak velocity of the jet rapidly moved from the center of the jet to the bottom wall boundary due to the restriction of jet entrainment and the no-slip condition of the bottom wall boundary, and, as for the surface discharge, because jet entrainment is limited on the free water surface, the peak velocity of the jet moved from the center of the jet to the free water surface. This is because jet entrainment is restricted at the bottom wall boundary and the surface so that the momentum of the central core of the jet is preserved for considerable time at the bottom wall boundary and the surface. In addition, due to the effect of the bottom wall boundary and the free water surface, the jet discharged into shallow water had a smaller velocity diminution rate near the discharge outlet than did the free jet; at a location where it was so distant from the discharge outlet that the vertical profile of the velocity was nearly equal (b/x =20~30), moreover, it had a far smaller velocity diminution rate than did the free jet due to the effect of the finite depth.

하천에서 홍수 예방 및 가뭄재해 방지를 목적으로 최근 4대강 살리기 사업이 수행되었다. 특히, 안정적인 용수공급 및 다양한 수재해 피해를 최소화하기위해 다기능보가 설치되었다. 설치된 보는 고정보와 가동보로 구분되며 평상시에는 고정보를 넘어가는 월류흐름이 발생하며 홍수 시에는 추가적으로 가동보를 개방하여 오리피스 흐름이 발생한다. 최근 기후변화로 인해 집중호우가 빈번히 발생하며 이는 보 주변에서 빠르고 복잡한 흐름을 유발하게 된다. 이러한 흐름특성은 보하류의 세굴문제뿐만 아니라 물받이와 바닥보호공의 안전성에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 영상기법을 활용하여 도수가 발생하는 조건에서 고정보 하류의 물받이공 및 바닥보호공에 난류흐름특성 및 압력분포를 분석하였다. 길이 8.0 m, 폭 0.3 m를 갖는 개수로에서 실험을 수행하였으며 0.2 m 높이의 고정보는 상류경계로부터 3.0 m지점에 위치하였다. 보 하류부에서 유속성분은 비접촉식 유속측정 기법인 입자영상유속계(Particle Image velocimetry, PIV)와 기포흐름을 측정할 수 있는 기포영상유속계(Bubble Image velocimetry, BIV)를 적용하였다. 그러므로 기포 존재유무와 관계없이 보 하류부 구간에 대한 유속장 성분을 취득하였다. 도수흐름은 물받이공 및 바닥보호공 영역의 바닥면을 따라 빠른 유속을 갖는 제트류가 발생하고 수면과 바닥으로 강한 진동이 발생하여 불안정한 흐름이 야기된다. 바닥면에 작용하는 압력을 측정하기 위해 흐름방향을 따라 피에조미터를 설치하였고 압력수두 분포를 초고속카메라로 촬영하여 그 특성을 분석하였다. 실험을 결과를 통해 보 하류부에 영향을 미치는 인자를 도출하였으며 향후 보 설계기준에 반영할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Sparkjet actuator, also known as plasma synthetic jet actuator, which is a kind of active flow control actuator is considered as being high possibility for the supersonic flow control due to ejecting stronger jet compared to the other active flow control actuators. Sparkjet actuator generates high temperature and high pressure flow inside the cavity by using arc plasma and leads momentum by ejecting such flow through orifice or nozzle. In this research, numerical calculation of sparkjet actuator with respect to the location of electrodes which exists inside the cavity is conducted and the change of the performance of sparkjet actuator is suggested. As the location of electrodes goes closer to the bottom of the cavity, impulse is increased and the average pressure inside the cavity maintains higher. When the location of electrode is 25% and 75% of the entire cavity height, impulse is 2.515 μN·s and 2.057 μN·s, respectively. Each impulse is changed by about 9.92% and -10.09% compared to when the location of electrodes is 50% of the entire cavity height.

Effects of injector position and momentum flux ratio on a vertical jet in a cross flow field were studied qualitatively and shown by using air and water. The experiment was carried out by fixing the momentum flux ratio and varying the position of the injector hole. Conversely, the injector hole position was fixed and the momentum flux ratio was varied. Image visualization was performed by a Shadowgraph technique using a high speed camera. The visualized images were compared for finding differences in spraying through Density Gradient Magnitude Image. It is observed that as the x/d of the apparatus increased the jet break up height decreases and the spray angle also decreases. When x/d is 0, the spray reaches the floor and ceiling at any momentum flux ratio.

보를 월류하는 흐름에 대하여 하류 수심이 보의 높이보다 낮고, 보 월류 후 수심의 공액수심보다 작거나 크고 같은 경우를 각각 자유도수와 수중도수라고 한다. 수중도수가 발생하는 경우 하류 수심이 보의 경사면을 따라 흐르는 하강류를 덮게 되며 유속을 감쇄시키기 때문에 최대 유속은 자유도수에 비해 매우 작게 발생한다. 그러나 수중도수는 자유도수에 비해 에너지 감쇄 효율이 낮기 때문에 도수구간의 거리가 증가하게 된다. 따라서 인명피해를 발생시키는 도수구간 재순환영역의 길이를 검토하는 것이나 보 하류 바닥보호공 길이 설계를 위해 수중도수에서의 흐름에 대하여 검토하는 것은 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 k-ω SST 난류모형을 이용하여 보 월류 후 발생하는 수중도수를 수치모의하고 평균흐름과 난류량의 종방향 변화에 대하여 검토하였다. 기존 실험수로에 k-ω SST 난류모형을 사용하여 모형의 적용성을 검토하였다. 다양한 하류 수심을 설정하여 평균흐름과 난류량에 대한 침수도의 영향 및 자유도수 계산결과와 벽면 제트 결과를 함께 비교하였다. 검토 결과 수중도수는 평균흐름과 난류량의 변화율이 자유도수보다 작고 벽면 제트보다는 큰 것을 확인하였다. 또한 침수도가 증가되면서 평균흐름과 난류량의 변화율이 작아지는 것을 확인하였다. 이것은 침수도의 변화에 따른 역압력경사의 차이에 의한 것으로 판단된다.

Effects of injector position and momentum flux ratio on a vertical jet in a cross-flow field are qualitatively studied and displayed using air and water. The position of the injector hole and the momentum flux ratio is changed and image visualization is performed using a shadowgraph technique and a high-speed camera. The visualized images are compared to find differences in spraying using density gradient magnitude image. It is observed that, as the x/d of the apparatus increases, the jet break-up height decreases. When x/d is 0, the spray reaches the bottom and ceiling at any momentum flux ratio.

There are around 7,500 manure tanks to treat the manures from pigs in Korea. In the tank, there are too much sediments deposited on the base and wall, which causes low efficiency of stock capacity and manure fermentation. In order to minimize sediments and to ferment manure effectively, we developed a 2-fluid jet mixer for mixing sediments in liquid livestock manure tank. For developing the prototype, we tested a factorial experimental system with various nozzles, and simulated CFD models with two kinds of nozzle arrangement. From the results of factorial experiment and CFD simulation, we concluded the dia. ratio of primary : secondary nozzle should be 1:2 and the nozzles should be arranged at the same distances toward to the circumferential direction. With this results, we manufactured a 2-fluid jet mixer which is consists of four 2-phase nozzles, centrifugal slurry pump and root's type air blower. And, we carried out the performance test of the prototype in the round shaped liquid manure tank in the farm. The performance test results showed that the uniformity of TS (Total Solid) and VS (Volatile Solid) was raised from 21.3 g/L, 13.3 g/L In steady state to TS and VS to 23.0 g/L, 14.1 g/L in the mixing operation. Therefore, we could conclude that the prototype of 2-fluid mixer could make the solid material which could be sediments in the tank not to be deposited in the tank and to be contacted to air bubbles which could enhance the efficiency of the fermentation of livestock manure.

This paper aims at optimizing the auxiliary ventilation system in large-opening limestone mines with unducted fans. An extensive CFD and also site study were carried out for optimization at the blind entries. The fan location, operating mode, and layout are the parameters for optimization. Since the jet stream discharged from the auxiliary fan is flowing faster than 15 m/s in most of the cases, the stream collides with floor, sides or roof and even with the jet stream generated from the other fan placed upstream. Then, it is likely to lose a large portion of its inertial force and then its ventilation efficiency drops considerably. Therefore, the optimal fan installation interval is defined in this study as an interval that maximizes the uninterrupted flowing distance of the jet stream, while the cross-sectional installation location can be optimized to minimize the energy loss due to possible collision with the entry sides. Consequently, the optimization of the fan location will improve ventilation efficiency and subsequently the energy cost. A number of different three-dimensional computational domains representing a full-scale underground space were developed for the CFD study. The velocity profiles and the CO concentrations were studied to design and optimize the auxiliary ventilation system without duct and at the same time mine site experiments were carried out for comparison purposes. The ultimate goal is to optimize the auxiliary ventilation system without tubing to provide a reliable, low-cost and efficient solution to maintain the clean and safe work environment in local large-opening underground limestone mines.

This study investigated the hydraulic impact scope and dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration distribution by the micro-bubble aeration in the Juksan Lake located in Asan city in Chungcheongnam-do province. A tracing experiment for hydraulic impact scope was used which constituted a 20% rhodamine solution. A 160 m-guideline was installed in the horizontal direction of the micro-bubble jet flow and the rhodamine concentration, water temperature, and DO concentration were measured at depths of 1 m, 2 m, and 3 m at intervals of 10 m. In the Juksan Lake, the effective range of jet flow discharged by the micro-bubble generator was about 40 m, and after then the jet plume moved up to 80 m to 120 m through the advection and diffusion processes of ambient water. DO concentration in the lake was maintained at 7.4-12.6 mg/L during tracking experiment. The DO of the lake sediments improved from 0.2 mg/L to 8.0 mg/L after applying micro-bubble aeration. In conclusion, the micro-bubble aeration can be an effective technology for the management and improvement of water quality in an agricultural reservoir.

A numerical analysis on the smoke behavior and evacuee safety has been performed with computational fluid dynamics. The purpose of this study is to build computational processes for an evacuation and prevention of a fire disaster of a 3 km-length tunnel in Korea. To save computational cost, 1.5 km of the tunnel that can include a few cross-passing tunnels is considered. We are going to assess the fire safety in a road tunnel according to the smoke level, which consists of the smoke density and the height from the floor. The smoke density is obtained in detail from three-dimensional unsteady CFD analysis. To obtain proper temperature distributions on the tunnel wall, one-dimensional conduction equation is considered instead of an adiabatic wall boundary or a constant heat flux. The tunnel considered in this study equips the cross passing tunnels for evacuees every 250 m. The distance is critical in both safety and economy. The more cross passing tunnels, the more safe but the more expensive. Three different jet fan operations can be considered in this study; under- and over-critical velocities for normal traffic condition and 0-velocoty operation for the traffic congestion. The SE (smoke environment) level maps show a smoke environment and an evacuating behavior every moment.
