Steady flow bench test is a practical, powerful and widely used test in most engine manufacturers to give a design concept of a new engine. In order to use steady data as a performance index, it is necessary to build some database, which can correlate the port characteristics with engine data. However, it is very hard to investigate all port and valve shapes with experimental tools. The steady flow scheme is relatively simple and its results are bulk ones such as flow rate and momentum of flow. Therefore a CFD code can be easily applied to the port evaluation. In this study, the steady flow test was simulated through two and three-dimensional analysis on intake port design for comparing with experimental data and confirming the feasibility of applying analytic method. For this purpose, the effect of valve curvature on flow rate was estimated by a CFD code. There results were compared with those of real steady flow tests. As a result, the 2-D analysis described the phenomena qualitatively well, and also the results of 3-D analysis were almost consistent with experimental data.

본 논문에서는 시작엔진 제작에 앞서 CFD기법을 이용하여 디젤 엔진 흡기포트의 유동 특성을 분석하고자 하였다. 유동 해석 결과 높은 밸브리프트에서는 흡기포트 곡률 최적화로 인해 흡입 공기량이 극대화되었으며, 낮은 밸브리프트에서는 스월 Chamfer를 적용하여 스월유동이 강화된 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

1400cc급 발전용 엔진 트로틀 바디의 최적화 및 성능 향상을 위하여 유동해석을 수행하였다. 베르누이 정리를 기본으로, 성능을 발휘하는 주요 설계인자인 트로틀 바디 내부의 트로틀 밸브 각도 및 흡기부 곡률 등을 설계 변수로 유동해석을 수행하였다. 벤튜리관 흡입부의 곡률을 증가시켜 트로틀 바디에서 소모되는 흡기저항을 줄였다. 감소된 흡기저항은 펌핑로스를 저감하여 연비향상에 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다. 결과적으로 해석결과 분석을 통하여 최적화된 모델을 제시하였다.

The braking force for a train is generally provided by compressed air. The pressure valve system that is used to apply appropriate braking forces to trains has a complex flow circuit. It is possible to make a channel shape that can increase the flow efficiency by 3D printing. There are restrictions on the flow shape design when using general machining. Therefore, in this study, the compressed air flow was analyzed in a pressure valve system by comparing flow paths made with conventional manufacturing methods and 3D printing. An analysis was done to examine the curvature magnitude of the flow path, the diameter of the flow path, the magnitude of the inlet and reservoir pressure, and the initial temperature of the compressed air when the flow direction changes. The minimization of pressure loss and the uniformity of the flow characteristics influenced the braking efficiency. The curvilinear flow path made through 3D printing was advantageous for improving the braking efficiency compared to the rectangular shape manufactured by general machining.

When the pressure at the weak spot established at a certain part of a high pressure vessel or piping system exceeds a design pressure, this weak spot is burst, and the pressurized gas emitted through the weak spot will cause a compression wave system. In this connection, in the present study, an experimental study by using a conventional shock tube facility is performed to estimate the effects of the material of diaphragm, curvature radius and thickness of materials on the valve opening time in diaphragm. Pressure sensor having 500kHz in natural frequency is installed at 35mm downstream of the rupture diaphragm to measure the static pressure history of propagating and being accumulated compression wave. 4 kinds of materials are used as diaphragm that is aluminium, copper, stainless steel and zinc. The diaphragm radii of curvature R are ${\infty}$, 120mm and 60, respectively. And the depth for $90^{\circ}$ groove is 0.04mm. It is found that the smaller the tensile strength and elongation of the rupture diaphragm is, the smaller the radius of curvature of the rupture diaphragm is, and for the same conditions the thinner the thickness of the rupture diaphragm is, the shorter the valve opening time becomes. Also, the tensile strength, elongation and the radius of curvature of the rupture diaphragm for the same conditions are smaller, the maximum pressure rise caused by the coalescences of the compression wave is smaller. Finally the pressure ratio is higher, the valve opening time is shortened and gradient of pressure increment is more steepen.

In this work, an optimum shape synthesis for rolling contact components was done to minimize contact forces considering dynamic characteristics of the system. Even this method was applied to an OHC type cam follower system, it can be expanded to general rolling contact shape design problems which are strictly forced to follow predetermined motion. First, the follower optimum angular motion was derived to minimize the valve peak acceleration while satisfying all the constraints of valve motion. Then the cam and follower contact shape were synthesized to give the proposed follower motion. Theoretically, two components shape to generate a predetermined motion can not be uniquely determined. So the cam shape was syntehsized with parametric synthesis method to minimize the peak contact force between cam and follower when the follower shape is assumed as a circle or an ellipse.

An intake port for Range Extender engine has been developed using CFD technique. Three dimensional intake port model has been built and computational analysis has been performed. Computed non-dimensional flow coefficient, swirl ratio and swirl number have been compared with the experimental result. Convex and concave curvature of the intake port have been optimized to reduce recirculation flow and flow resistance. Finally, the mean flow coefficient is 0.383 and the mean swirl number is 1.544. The intake port shows relatively excellent performance compared with those of general 2 valve engine system intake ports.

The flow characteristics of two-dimensional turbulent offset jet which is discharged parallel to a solid wall has been studied experimentally and numerically. In the experiment, 3-hole pitot tube and 2 channel constant temperature hot-wire anemometer are used to measure local mean velocity, turbulence intensity and Reynolds stress while scannivalve is used to measure the wall pressure distribution. It is confirmed experimentally that local mean velocity is closely related to wall pressure distribution. It is also verified that for large Reynolds numbers and fixed step height there exists a similarity in the distribution of wall pressure coefficient. The maximum values of turbulence intensity occur in the top and bottom mixing layers and the magnitude of Reynolds stress becomes large in the lower mixing layer than in the top mixing layer due to the effect of streamline curvature and entrainment. In the numerical analysis, standard k-.epsilon. model based on eddy viscosity model and Leschziner and Rodi model based on algebraic stress model are adopted. The numerical analyses predict shorter reattachment lengths than the experiment, and this difference is judged to be due mainly to the problem of turbulence model constants and numerical algorithm. This also causes the inconsistency between the two results for other turbulence quantities in the recirculation region and impingement region, which constitutes a subject of a continued future study.
