To evaluate the accurate performance of turbomachinery, it is important to measure the unsteady flow phenomena downstream of the rotor blade. This paper presents the development of the fast-response total pressure probe for the measurement of the total pressure field at the exit of rotor and the result of measurement in a 1-stage axial turbine. The fast-response total pressure probe was fabricated by installing a fast-response pressure sensor near the head of a Kiel probe. And it measured the phase-lock averaged total pressure downstream of an 1-stage axial turbine. The developed probe successfully measured the accurate total pressure distribution at rotor exit and made possible to evaluate the loss distribution and the accurate performance of turbomachinery.

In the present study the unsteady forces acting on the pitching foils such as a flat plate, NACA0010, NACA0020, NACA65-0910 and BTE have been measured by using a six-axis sensor in a circulating water tunnel at a low Reynolds number region. The unsteady characteristics of the dynamic drag and lift have been compared to the quasi-steady ones which are measured under the stationary condition. The pitching motion is available for keeping the lift higher after the separation occurs. Especially, the characteristics of the dynamic lift are quite different from the quasi-steady one at high pitching frequency regions. As the pitching frequency deceases, the amplitude of the dynamic lift becomes closer to the quasi-steady one. However, the phase remains different between the steady and unsteady conditions even at low pitching frequencies. On the other hand, the dynamic drag is governed strongly by the angle of attack.

In order to evaluate properly ship motion relating to the berthing maneuver, the hydrodynamic forces acting on ship hull in berthing maneuver need to be estimated rightly. CFD has been employed for time-domain simulation of transient flow induced by Wigley model moving laterally from rest in shallow water. The numerical solutions successfully captured not only the characteristics of the transitional hydrodynamic forces but also some interesting features of the flow field around a berthing ship according to the water depth. In this paper, the consideration is carried out on the approximate formula based on the CFD results, which can estimate hydrodynamic forces especially lateral drag coefficient starting from the rest to the uniform movement.

이번 연구에서는 저속 비압축성 유체-구조 연성을 고려한 위상 최적화을 위해 새로운 모노리틱 해석을 개발한다. 이 새로운 해석 기법에서는 기존의 유체-구조 연성 시스템 해석 기법에서 유체와 구조 영역을 분리하고 연성 조건을 만족시키는 것과 다르게 하나의 일치된 해석 방정식을 유체 영역과 구조 영역에 동일하게 적용한다. 또한, 경계조건을 만족시키기 위하여 단일화 된 해석 방정식의 물성치를 바꾸어주는 새로운 방식을 제시하였다. 이 새로운 방법에서는 유체, 구조 영역을 분리하지 않고 Navier-Stoke's 방정식과 선형 탄성식을 동시에 사용하였다. 또한, 유체-구조 영역이 연성 해석 중 변화하는 것을 반영하기 위하여 구조 변위를 이용하여 Deformation tensor를 계산하였고 이를 이용하여 변형 후에서의 Navier-Stoke 방정식의 미분을 계산하는 방법을 제안하였다. 그리고, 정상 상태 유체를 가정하고 속도에 비례하는 마찰힘인 Darcy's force 항을 Navier-Stoke 방정식에 넣고 이 마찰 힘의 크기를 변화시킴으로 해서 유체 방정식에서의 연성 경계 조건을 만족시켰다. 선형 탄성 방정식에서 Divergence이론을 이용해서 경계에서 작용하는 외력이 하는 일을 내부 시스템에 하는 일로 계산하였다. 개발된 모노리스 해석 방법을 이용하여 저속 비압축성 유체가 구조에 미치는 압축력을 계산하였고 이용하여 컴플라이언트 미케니즘을 설계하였다.

Impeller blades in the centrifugal compressor are subjected to static loads due to the high-speed rotation and steady aerodynamic forces. At the same time, aerodynamic excitations by the interaction between the impeller and the diffuser vanes(DV) periodically excite the impeller blades in resonant conditions, which may lead to high cycle fatigue (HCF) and eventually result in failure of the blades. In order to predict the structural response accurately, the aerodynamic excitation and the major resonant conditions were predicted by performing the unsteady flow analysis and modal analysis using ANSYS. Next, a unidirectional forced vibration analysis was performed by using fluid-structure interaction (FSI) method, and the safety of HCF was evaluated based on the results.

The hydrodynamic interference between two circular cylinders in tandem and side by side arrangements was investigated by measuring of lift and drag on each cylinder. The time variations of interference lift and drag coefficients in each arrangement were observed at center-to-center pitch ratios of P/D=1.25 and 2.5 and Reynolds number of $Re=1.5\times10^4$. Average interference lift and drag coefficients were also observed at pitch ratios from P/D=1.25 to 2.5 and Reynolds number from $Re=1.5\times10^4$ to $1.5\times10^4$. The hydrodynamic interference between two circular cylinders differed with the shape of the arrangement and the pitch ratio, but the characteristics were revealed by measuring of lift and drag on each cylinder.

An oscillating foil can produce a driving force through the generation of a reversed $K\'{a}rm\'{a}n$ vortex street, and it can be expected to be a new highly effective propulsion system. A simple pitching foil model was made and it was operated within a water channel. The wake formation behind a pitching foil was visualized and unsteady fluid forces were measured using a 6-axis force sensor based on force and moment detectors. We have been examined various conditions such as reduced frequency, amplitude and pivot point in NACA 0010. The results showed that thrust coefficients increased with a reduced frequency. We also presented the experimental results on the characteristics of a pitching foil at various parameters.

A numerical investigation was performed based on the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes(RANS) equations for the two-dimensional unsteady flow around a vertical axis turbine(VAT) with three or four blades. VAT is one of the promising devices for tidal current energy conversion. The geometry of the turbine blade was $NACA65_3$-018 airfoil, for which CFD analysis using Fluent was carried out at several angles of attack and the results were compared with the corresponding experimental data for validation and calibration. Then CFD simulations were carried out for the whole vertical axis turbine with a two-dimensional setup. The CFD simulation demonstrated the usefulness of the method to study the typical unsteady flows around VATs and the results showed that the optimum turbine efficiency could be achieved for carefully selected combinations of the number of blade and Tip-Speed Ratio(TSR).

This paper presents the theoretical analysis of a flow driven by surface tension and gravity in an inclined circular tube. A governing equation is developed for describing the displacement of a non-Newtonian fluid(Power-law model) that continuously flows into a circular tube owing to surface tension, which represents a second-order, nonlinear, non-homogeneous, and ordinary differential form. It was found that quantitatively, the theoretical predictions of the governing equation were in excellent agreement with the solutions of the equation for horizontal tubes and the past experimental data. In addition, the predictions compared very well with the results of the force balance equation for steady.
