The objective of this study is to develop and validate a numerical method which can handle the multi-rotor aerodynamic characteristics. For the purpose of power estimation, table look-up method is implemented to the existing unsteady panel code that is coupled with a time-marching free wake model. Also, the Reynolds number scaling is implemented for the application to various regions of Reynolds number. The computed results are validated against the available experimental data for coaxial and tandem rotors. In the validation case for the coaxial rotor, more accurate result is acquired when the thickness effect is considered. The wake instability problem occurs at a particular separation distance between the rotors for tandem rotors. The wake instability is avoided by setting the single-rotor wake geometry as the initial wake geometry for the multi-rotor analysis. The estimated result for rotor separation effect is compared with the result of the momentum theory.

In this paper, the preconditioned multistage time stepping methods which are popular multigrid smoothers is implemented for the compressible Navier-Stokes calculation with full-coarsening multigrid method. The convergence characteristic of the point-Jacobi and Alternating direction line Jacobi(DDADI) preconditioners are studied. The performance of 2nd order upwind numerical fluxes such as 2nd order upwind TVD scheme and MUSCL-type linear reconstruction scheme are compared in the inviscid and viscous turbulent flow caculations.

기존의 유선망에 환경에 무선망이 출현함으로써 유무선이 통합된 단일 망으로 변화하고 있다. 그러나 기존 유선망에 비해 무선망은 대역폭 및 왕복시간, 높은 패킷 손실률 등 여러 요소의 영향으로 만족할만한 데이터 전송 효율을 얻지는 못하고 있다. 특히 멀티미디어 데이터의 전송오류 패킷에 대한 재전송을 수행함에 있어서 기존 유선망에서의 재전송 알고리즘인 FEC나 ARQ기법 및 Selective Ack 기법을 무선망에 피대로 적용하기에는 효율적이지 못하다. 따라서 무선망에 적합한 새로운 재전송 기법이 필요하게 되었다. 본 논문에서는 유무선이 통합된 홈 서버환경 하에서 제안한 재전송 알고리즘을 통하여 MPEG-4 데이타의 전송 효율을 높일 수 있는 방안을 제시하고자 한다.

This study concentrates on the upwind schemes for convergence acceleration of the multigrid method for the Navier-Stokes equations. Comparative study of the upwind schemes in the Fourier space has been performed to identify why the second-order upwind scheme with enlarged stencil can be preconditioned better than the classical second-order upwind scheme. The full-coarsening multigrid method with implicit preconditioned multistage scheme has been implemented for verification of analysis. Numerical simulations on the inviscid and turbulent flows with the Spalart-Allmaras turbulent model have been performed. The results showed consistent trend with the analysis.

It is well known that preconditioning methods are efficient for convergence acceleration in the compressible low Mach number flows. In this study, the original Euler equations and three differently nondimensionalized preconditioning methods are implemented in two dimensional inviscid bump flows using the 3rd order MUSCL and DADI schemes as numerical flux discretization and time integration, respectively. The multigrid and local time stepping methods are also used to accelerate the convergence. The test case indicates that a properly modified local preconditioning technique involving concepts of a global preconditioning allows Mach number independent convergence. Besides, an asymptotic analysis for properties of preconditioning methods is added.

In this paper, a three-dimensional Euler aeroelastic analysis program is developed with a second-order staggered algorithm to reduce the lagging errors between the fluid and structural solvers. In the unsteady aerodynamic analysis, a dual-time stepping method based on the diagonalized-ADI algorithm is adopted to improve the time accuracy and a parallelized multi-grid method is used to save the computing time. The aeroelastic analyses of AGARD 445.6 wing model have been performed to verify the Euler aeroelastic analysis code. The analysis results are compared with the experimental data and other computational results. The results show comparatively good correlation when they are compared with other references.

In the present study, solution algorithms for the connotation of unsteady flows on an unstructured mesh me presented Dual time stepping is incorporated to achieve the 2-nd order temporal accuracy while reducing the linearization and the factorization errors associated with a linear solver. Hence, any time step can be used by only considering physical phenomena. Gauss-Seidel scheme is used to solve linear system of equations. Rigid motion and suing analogy method for moving mesh are all considered and compared. Special treatments of suing analogy for high aspect ratio cells are presented. Finally, numerical results for oscillating ing are compared with experimental data.

Time marching methods are well-suited for high speed compressible flow computations. However, it is well known that the time marching methods suffer a slow down in convergence due to disparity in Eigenvalues. A local preconditioning method is one of numerical methods to enhance convergence characteristics of low mach number flows by modifying Eigenvalues of the governing equations. In this paper, the local preconditioning method of Weiss is applied to a 2 dimensional Navier-Stokes code and the efficiency of the preconditioning method is shown through a number of computational examples.

In the present paper, a new calculation algorithm far solving large scale environmental or geophysical flows with free surface is proposed where the non-hydrostatic pressure component is taken into consideration. Predictor-corrector fractional step approach with explicit, forward time marching scheme in the sigma coordinate system is employed. In order to validate the present calculation algorithm and to estimate the effects of non-hydrostatic pressure on resultant flow and free surface movements, example calculations are carried out for typical steady and unsteady flow problems. Present method can be applied to the meso-scale free surface flows with complex bottom topography where MAC-like 3-d hydrodynamic calculations are quite ineffective and uneconomic.

A flow control on airfoil installed a vortex cell for high efficiency wind turbine blade in stationary and dynamic stall conditions have been numerically investigated by solving the compressible Navier-Stokes equations. The numerical scheme is based on a node-based finite-volume method with Roe's flux-difference splitting and an implicit time-integration method coupled with dual time step sub-iteration. The computed result for the airfoil in the stationary showed that lift-drag ratio increases due to low pressure by the vortex cell. The oscillating airfoil with the vortex cell showed that the magnitude of hysteresis loop is reduced due to the enhanced vortex in the cell.
