벽 근처에서의 흐름(near wall flow)을 해석하기 위한 낮은 레이놀즈수 수정(low-Reynolds number modification)을 포함하는 통계학적 난류모형을 이용한 3차원 비정상 레이놀즈-평균 나비어-스톡스 (URANS) 계산을 실시하여 사각형 수로에서의 중력류를 모의하였다. 3차원 계산 결과를 2차원 URANS 모의에 의한 계산 결과 그리고 실험결과와 비교하였다. 이 연구 결과는 적정 시 공간적 수치해상도를 가지고 벽 근처에서의 흐름을 주의 깊게 직접 해석하는 3차원 URANS 수치모의는 2차원 계산으로는 해석할 수 없는 대규모 Kelvin-Helmholtz 와구조 (vortical structure)의 붕괴(breakdown) 그리고 중력류 선단부에서 발달하는 Lobe-and-Cleft 흐름 불안정 등을 포함하는 중력류의 동적 특성을 높은 정확도로 재현할 수 있음을 보여준다.

Unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes(URANS) and Large Eddy Simulation(LES) simulation of an axial flow fan are calculated upon same conditions and computational grids in order to study aeroacoustic noise of an axial flow fan numerically. Results of computed performance and predicted noise are compared with those of measurement. Both performances show accurate results with a significant difference of less than 5%. However, noise of LES result is more close to measured noise qualitatively than URANS. Levels of tonal noises of both LES and URANS are quite similar with those of measured at BPF(Blade Passing Frequency) in sound spectrum. However, as leading edge separation and tip vortex shedding phenomena of LES are showed more clearly than those of URANS, sound level of broadband noise of LES corresponds better than that of URANS, especially.

A parametric study on a fluidic oscillator was performed numerically in this work. Three-dimensional unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations were solved to analyze the flow in the fluidic oscillator. As turbulence closure, $k-{\varepsilon}$ model was employed. Validation of the numerical results was performed by comparing numerical results with experimental data for frequency of the oscillation. The parametric study was performed using five geometric parameters. Performance of the fluidic oscillator was evaluated in terms of velocity ratio and pressure drop. The results show that the inlet channel width and the distance between splitters are important factors in determining the performance of the fludic oscillator.

An unsteady RANS analysis study of the 3-D flow around the NREL Phase VI horizontal axis wind turbine(HAWT) was performed using sliding mesh approach. Two different analysis models such as rotor-only and rotor with tower/nacelle were constructed to investigate the blade/tower interaction. Analysis results for the rotor with tower/nacelle were compared with the corresponding NREL's experimental data which produced fairly good validation of the present CFD model. Comparison of flows around those two models also clearly showed the blade/tower interaction even it was small for upwind configuration. Other visualization results and integrated aerodynamic loads including torque of the blade demonstrated the effective unsteady flow simulation capability of the present CFD model.
