When a body with slant angle behind its shoulder is moving at a high speed, the turbulent motion around the afterbody is generally associated with the flow separation, and determines the normal component of the drag. By changing the slant angle of the afterbody, the drag coefficients can be changed, drastically. Understanding and controlling the turbulent separated flows has significant importance for the design of optimal configuration of the moving bodies. In this paper, a new Large Eddy Simulation technique has been developed to investigate turbulent vortical motions around the afterbodies, using slant angle. By understanding the structure of the turbulent flow around the body, the new configuration of afterbodies is designed to reduce the drag of body, and the nonlinear effects, due to the interaction between the body configuration and the turbulent separated flows, are investigated by use of the developed LES technique.

The assessment of PIV to measure the mean velocity and turbulence was carried out over a train of fixed two-dimensional dunes. The agreement between the PIV and LDV is good enough even in regions of flow reversals and high shear. Though limited in the wall normal direction field-of-view, PIV provides instantaneous flow fields, which reveal the complex nature of flow over dunes, as well as more sophisticated analyses such as two-point space correlation and quadrant analysis with a reasonable accuracy The present study is expected to be directly applied to more complex flow such as sediment transport.

The flow around a rotating circular cylinder near a plane wall is investigated by the measurement of the lift acting on the cylinder and by the flow visualization using the hydrogen bubble technique in the circulating water tank. The experimental parameters are the rotating direction of the cylinder, the space ratios H/D($H/D=0.05{\sim}0.5$) between cylinder and plane wall and the velocity ratios ${\alpha}({\alpha}=0{\sim}{\pm}2.0)$. In the case of clockwise, the lift on the rotating circular cylinder was increased with the reduction of the space ratios and with the velocity ratios, the upper separation point was more shifted in the rotating direction with them. In the case of anticlockwise, the absolute value of the lift on the rotating circular cylinder was increased with the space ratios and with the velocity ratios, the lower separation point was more shifted in the rotating direction with them.

The present study deals with turbulent flow over a long train of fixed two-dimensional dunes, identical in size and shape. A detailed study was carried out by PIV over a range of flow depths in a fully developed region. The present study confirmed the global features of flow past a fired dune noticed in previous studies, i.e. the size and shape of the reverse flow, the mean velocity and turbulence profiles across the separated and attached flows. The turbulence and shear stress profiles reveal the presence of larger values along the line extending from crest to crest. At stations ahead of the dune crest, the presence of a peak in the streamwise turbulence profiles around y/h = 2 indicates the sustenance of turbulence generated in the separation zone of the previous zone which will be carried over to the next dune.

The Visualizations of the flowfield through tube banks with in-line and staggered arrangements were investigated by PIV. Strouhal numbers, velocity vectors and velocity profiles around the cylinders with in-line and staggered arrangements were observed at the pitch ratio $P_t/D=2.0$ and Reynolds number of $Re=4.0{\times}10^3$. As the results The flow patterns through tube banks were almost a straight line in case of the in-line arrangement while it was almost 八 type in case of the staggered arrangement in the direction of the wake. The average velocity in the rear region of the tube banks with the staggered arrangement was far smaller than that with the in-line arrangement. The Strouhal number in the last rank was far smaller than that in the front ranks in both of the in-line and staggered arrangements. The wake of each cylinder changed with time and with the position of the cylinder.

The purpose of this study was to develop of the smoke flow visualization device of learning wind tunnel, teaching-learning materials in order to demonstrate air-flow around the fluid-flow field qualitatively and understand the resistance concepts of fluid-flow in secondary school. The contents of this study were consisted of the development and experiment of smoke flow visualization for learning wind tunnel. The main results of this study were as follows: First, this developed teaching-learning material here will help students understand the fundamental physical phenomena related with the resistance of fluid and the various patterns of air-flow in the field of transportation technology. Second, flow visualization has shown the same tendency in both of theoretical and experimental patterns. Third, the airfoil model has the smallest wake region meaning resistance against air-flow of circular cylinder and square rod model. Forth, flow separation point at leading edge and wide wake region began to show under the angle of attack of airfoil model ${\alpha}$ is $20^{\circ}$. Fifth, the wake width of the flow field behind a golf ball with dimple became slightly narrower than that without dimple. Sixth, the developed device was made to apply the teaching and learning materials for the experiment and practice in order to increase students' interest and attitude.

The Characteristics of the flowfields of a square prism having a small square prism were investigated by measuring of lift and drag on the square prism and visualizing the flowfield using PIV. The experimental parameters were the width ratios(H/B=0.2~0.6) of small square prisms to the prism width and the gap ratios (G/B=0~3) between the prism and the small square prism. The drag reduction rate of the square prism initially increased and then decreased with the G/B ratio for the same H/B ratio, and increased with the H/B ratio for the same G/B ratio. The maximum drag reduction rate of 98.0% was observed at H/B=0.6 and G/B=1.0. The lift reduction rate of the square prism was not affected by the width and gap ratios; the total average value was approximately 66.5%. In case of a square prism having a small square prism, the stagnation regions were represented in the upstream and downstream sides of the square prism.

In this study, we investigate the characteristics of the drag reduction of a circular cylinder having a detached splitter plate at the wake side. We measure the fluid force on a circular cylinder and visualize the field using particle image velocimetry (PIV) with a high Reynolds number, Re = 10,000. The experimental paraeters used were the width ratios (H/B = 0.5~1.5) of splitters to the prism width and the gap ratios (G/B = 0~2) between the prism and the splitter plate. The drag-reduction rate of the circular cylinder increased with H/B in the case of the same G/B, and it increased and then decreased with G/B in the case of the same H/B. The vortices of the opposite direction on the upper and lower sides of the detached splitter plate were generated by installing the plate. Reverse flow was caused by the vortices at the wake region of the circular cylinder, and the drag of the circular cylinder was decreased by the reverse flow.

In this study, steady/unsteady aerodynamic characteristic for three dimensional symmetric wing was investigated numerically using Vortex Panel Method. This program utilized linearly varying vortices in x and y directions distributed on the wing surface and was applied to the incompressible potential. flow around a three dimensional wing Separation and deformation of the wake are not considered. The comparison between NACA Airfoil Data and the computed results showed excellent agreement. πus method was applied to unsteady wings undergoing both sudden pitch-up and constant rate pitching motion. In the unsteady flow analysis, a formation and a time-dependent locations of Starting Vortices are considered and the effect of Starting Vortices on aerodynamic characteristic of the wing was calculated. The present method can be extended to apply for more complicated cases such as pitching, flapping and rotating wing analysis.

세류침식은 급경사 나지사면에서 증가하는 지표흐름에 의해 빈번하게 발생하고, 과도한 토사유출로 인해 홍수 및 토사재해 위험 증가와 수질오염 등의 문제를 야기한다. 본 연구는 개발지역의 마사토를 활용하여 1.2 m × 5.5 m 규모의 3개 중규모 플롯에서 세류발달 특성, 유출 및 토사유출량을 파악하고자 강우와 유입수 모의실험을 수행하였다. 경사 조건 15°와 20°에서 유입수 유무에 따른 4회의 반복실험이 진행되었으며 마사토의 평균입경은 0.89 mm이다. 강우강도 범위는 90~140 mm/hr이며, 유입수 유량은 합리식으로 계산하였으며 100~130 ml/sec이다. 하천 차수분석방법인 Horton방법을 사용하여 세류별 차수를 나누었다. 세류절개는 유입수가 없는 경우 실험 시작 약 1분 후에 발생하였고, 최대 2차수까지 세류가 발달하였으며, 유입수가 있는 경우 약 30초 후 발생하였고, 최대 3차수까지 세류가 발달하였다. 세류발달에 대한 수리학적 특성을 파악하기 위하여 염료 추적방법에 의한 동영상 이미지 분석결과 유속은 0.06~0.43 m/s의 범위를 보였다. 유입수와 강우가 함께 공급되는 경우 강우모의 공급수량에 비해 1.32~1.69배 증가했고, 이에 따라 지표유출수는 1.13~3.93배로 증가폭의 범위가 넓었다. 세류발달에 의한 토사유출량은 유입수 유무에 따라 6.7~32.3배로 증가하였다. 결론적으로 강우와 유입수가 상호작용하는 경우 강우에 의한 박리현상보다 유입수에 의한 측벽붕괴 활동이 활발하게 진행되었고 이는 세류 발달 과정에서 지배적으로 이루어졌기 때문으로 판단된다.
