하천에서의 흐름은 상류(常流)흐름으로 대표된다. 곳에 따라 수로경사가 급한 곳에서 국부적으로 사류(射流)가 생기지만 홍수흐름이 아니고는 보기 힘든다. 하천을 좋아하면서 그리고 전공하면서 현장에서 부딪치는 홍수의 사류흐름은 다스리면서 극복해 나가야하는 대상이이기에 이에 따른 어려움이 적게 나타나기를 늘 바라면서 살아왔다.

An optimization process was developed to improve mixed-flow pump performance. The optimization process was combined with CFX (a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code) and HEEDS (an optimization code). CFX is a widely used CFD software for turbo machinery, whereas HEEDS, which uses the SHERPA algorithm, is a newly introduced optimization code. HEEDS can use a large number of optimization variables; thus, it is possible to effectively consider interaction effects. In this paper, an impeller model, which is already optimized with design of experiments (DOE), is used as the base model. The optimization process developed in this paper shows an improved design within an acceptable timeframe.

하수관은 평상시 개수로 흐름특성을 가지며, 설계강우를 초과하는 홍수사상이 발생하는 경우에만 만수되어 관로 흐름특성이 나타난다. 개수로 흐름은 Froude수에 의해 상류와 사류로 구분되며, 일반적으로 등류수로로 가정한 후 유출량 또는 수심 등 흐름 변위를 산정한다. 사류인 경우 하수관 출구부에서 등류수심이 발생한다고 가정하면 해석이 용이하지만 길이가 짧은 하수관에서 실험을 수행한 결과 등류조건을 조성하기가 용이하지 않았다. 따라서 등류수심이 발생한다는 가정 하에 개발된 기존 마찰계수 산정식의 보완이 필요하다. 완변이 부등류 해석법을 이용하여 부등류 마찰계수 산정식을 개발하고자 시도하였으며, 이를 등류 마찰계수 산정식의 결과와 비교하였다.

A general program of meanline design and/or performance prediction for centrifugal/mixed-flow compressors is successfully commercialized using various empirical loss models. 4 types of diffusers, 3 types of exit elements, shrouded/unshrouded impellers and real gas option are included in the program capabilities. Total 16 cases of benchmark test results proved its reliability to be effectively utilized in the development processes.

A general program of three dimensional profile design of impellers for centrifugal/fixed-flow compressors is successfully commercialized using Bezier curves and quasi-3D flow analysis methods. Control points for meridional hub and shroud contours and blade camberline angles are arbitrarily changed to give smooth Bezier curves. With specified blade normal thicknesses, contructed geometry is instantly analyzed using flow analysis methods to be checked.

A mixed-type turbine was adopted and the rotor outer diameter was 108 mm. Turbine rotors were designed to the axial-type blade because the turbine operated at a low partial admission rate of 1.7-2.0% with two stages. Performance characteristics were studied when the spouting from the nozzle was toward radially inward or outward direction. Additionally, the effect at each stage of the rotor was measured. For comparing with each turbine performance, properties were measured based on various rotational speeds. Measured net specific torque was used to compare with the turbine system performance. On the mixed-type turbine, better performance was obtained when the operating air spouted toward radially inward direction. The specific torque was increased by 7.8% from using the second stage although its effect depended on the rotational speed.

In the present paper, a transonic mixed-flow compressor that has relatively lower frontal area than that of centrifugal compressors is discussed, and aerodynamic design as well as performance prediction are performed. Main design constraints are compressor exit Mach number of 0.3 and flow angle of 30degrees at the design point, and maximum overall compressor diameter of 177mm, that is 7.0inch. The mass flow rate of design point and pressure ratio are 1.05kg/s and 5.2:1, respectively. The aerodynamic design results show that the transonic compressor designed with forward-swept inducer and curved diffuser can have the target performance with efficiency of 75% within the given constraints. And the compressor exit flow characteristics are discussed here.

Nowadays, precise prediction of the pump performance becomes more important than ever before in high-value industries such as power plants and large ships. The power consumed in such pumps of large head and capacity definitely affects the efficiency of the entire system. In this study, we report the theoretical and CFD results used in prediction of the performance change caused by the reduction of impeller diameter. We have found that the theoretical calculation is somehow useful at least in estimating the very beginning condition for the CFD main calculation.
