A flow visualization of the 1st cycle motion of a fling-clapping wing that might be employed by butterflies during flight is performed. In this numerical flow visualization, he time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations are solved for two wing motion types; 'fling followed by clap and pause' and 'clap followed by fling and pause'. The result is observed regarding the main flow features such as the sequential development of the two families of separation vortex pairs and their movement. For the fling followed by clap and pause motion, a strong separation vortex pair of counter-clockwise develops in the opening between the wings in the fling phase and they then move out from the opening in the following clap phase. For the clap followed by fling and pause motion, the separation vortex pair developed in the outside space in the clap phase move into the opening in the following fling phase. The separation vortex pair in the opening developed in the fling phase of the clap followed by fling and pause motion is observed to be stronger than that in the opening developed in the fling phase of the fling followed by clap and pause motion.

자유흐름장에 놓여 있는 회전 와류쌍을 음원으로 갖는 비정상 유동장에서 사극음원이 음장에 미치는 효과를 알아보기 위해 이차원 음장 수치해석을 시도하였다. 비압축성 유동장에 대한 비정상 수력정보를 기반으로 오일러식에서 교란 압축성 소음항을 도출하였다. 원거리 자유 경계면은 비반사 경계조건을 이용하여 매우 안정된 해를 얻을 수 있었다. 계산된 결과들은 MAE 방법과 비교하여 정확도를 입증하였다. 본 연구를 통해 비압축성 압력교란을 원천항으로 하여 물체가 존재하지 않는 경우에도 사극음원에 의한 음장을 수치적으로 계산이 가능함을 입증하였다.

This paper describes results of an experimental study to examine the effect of a submerged horizontal breakwater to sea water exchange. Flow measurements were taken by using a PIV(Particie Image Velocimetry) system, and mean currents and wave ellipses extracted through the harmonic analysis are presented. As results, the rates of circulating flow were closely connected with the volume flux of incident waves and the counter-rotating vortex pair was observed at the onshore side of a plate. The dye study showed that incoming sea water and polluted water body mixed up significantly due to turbulent motions induced by a jet-like flow.

벽면 근처에 가까이 위치하는 회전와류쌍을 음원으로 갖는 비정상 유동장에서 벽면이 음장에 미치는 효과를 알아보기 위해 이차원 음장 수치해석을 시도하였다. 비압축성 유동장에 대한 비정상 수력정보를 기반으로 오일러식에서 교란 압축성 소음항을 도출하였다. 원거리 자유 경계면은 비반사 경계조건을 이용하였으며, 벽면에서는 벽면 효과를 음향장에 고려하였다. 자유흐름장에 놓인 와류쌍이 대칭인 나선팔을 갖는 반면에, 벽면이 있는 경우엔 음파가 전달되는 경로를 따라 방향성이 존재함을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통하여 벽면이 존재하는 경우에 비정상 수력정보를 이용하여 근거리와 원거리 음장을 동시에 수행할 수 있음을 알아내었다.

By employing vane tip concept, a new rotor blade (NRSB-I) has been designed to enhance the noise characteristics of BERP blade. Numerical analyses have been performed for hovering rotor and the results are compared with respect to those of original BERP blade. Although the thrust of designed rotor decreases by 6-7% due to cutout at the tip region, the results indicate that the actual performance loss is negligible because power reduction is greater than thrust loss. It is also found that aerodynamic fence is required at the outboard kink to obtain clearly separated twin-vortices because the vortex generated at kink is diffused during the convection over the blade surface.

Hybrid rocket shows interesting characteristics of complicated mixing layers developed by interactions between turbulent oxidizer flow and mass flow from surface due to fuel vaporization. In this study, compressible LES with a ring structure attached at the entrance of the combustor are performed. According to one recent report, adding a ring structure in the middle of the combustor helps increasing regression rate. From the numerical results, it is seen that vortex structures near the wall becomes stronger due to the interaction with surface mass injection, and the local heat flux increases due to the vortices. This phenomenon is obviously related to the generation of dimple structures which are seen in the number of experiments. Also, the ring structure at the entrance induces strong vortex flow which enhances heat transfer to the wall surface and mixing between fuel and oxidizer as well as reaction efficiency.

Vent mixer can provide main flow directly into a recirculation region downstream of the mixer to enhance fuel-air mixing efficiency. Based on experimental results of three-dimensional velocity, vorticity and turbulent kinetic energy obtained by a stereoscopic PIV method, the performance of the vent mixer was compared with that of the step mixer which was used as a basic model. Thick shear layers of the vent mixer induced the increase of the penetration height. The turbulent kinetic energy mainly distributed along a boundary layer between the main flow and the jet plume. This turbulent field activates mass transfer in a mixing region, leading to the mixing enhancement.

The detailed heat transfer coefficient on a rotating dimpled channel were measured using the transient liquid crystal technique. The channel height to dimple diameter was 2, dimple center distance to dimple diameter was 1.5 and channel aspect ratio was 4. Tested Reynolds number based on the channel hydraulic diameter was varied from 15000 to 35000 and corresponding rotation number was ranged from 0.026 to 0.057. Results showed that the Coriolis force by rotation enhanced the heat transfer coefficient on the trailing surface. As the Reynolds number increased, i.e. rotation number decreased, the heat transfer coefficient increased and the thermal performance factor decreased.

Today, the research to examine a fact that interaction between the air and the fluid free surface affects the steady state flow and air. We proved the interaction between vortex pairs and free surface on each condition that is created by the end of delta wings. another purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of surface active material which can change the surface tension and we must consider when we refer to turbulent flow on surface tension. therefore, this research examined the growth process of vortex pairs on condition of clean, contaminated free surface and wall after we made vortex pairs through counter rotating flaps. The results of this study suggest that vortex pairs in clean free surface rise safely but the vortex pairs in contaminated free surface and rigid, no slip is made secondary vortex or rebounding. However the secondary vortex in rigid, no slip is stronger than before, and we can find the vortex shape which roll up more completely. However, these will disappear by the effect of wall.
