In this paper, numerical simulations are performed on the lock-in phenomena of vortex induced vibration(VIV) of a two dimensional cylinder. A deforming grid as well as a rigidly moving grid are used to simulate the movement of the cylinder. The grid deformation is accomplished by the linear spring analogy. Converged solutions, which are obtained by controling the grid size and the non-dimensional time step, are used for comparison and validation of the analysis results. Moreover, the efficiency and the accuracy of the coupling methods for fluid-structure interaction are examined.

풍력 터빈은 복잡한 바람 조건에 노출되어 운용 되는 시스템으로서 경제성과 신뢰성을 확보하기 위해서는 이러한 조건하에서 시스템에 작용하는 정확한 공력 하중 예측이 필요하다. 여러 조건 중에서도 요에러는 풍향이 수시로 바뀌기 때문에 피할 수 없는 비정상 유동 중에 하나이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 요에러 발생시 공력 하중예측을 적절히 예측하기 위해서 와류 격자 기법을 기반으로 하는 비선형 와류 보정기법을 적용하였다. 비선형 와류 보정기법은 실속 이후의 공력 예측을 위해 기지의 공력 테이블을 이용하는 방법으로서 실속 이후의 공력 테이블 값의 양력과 와류 격자 기법에서의 양력 값이 일치하도록 순환(circulation)을 분포시키는 기법이다. 또한 요에러시에 발생할 수 있는 동적 실속을 계산하기 위해 Beddoes-Leishmen 동적 실속 모델을 비선형 와류 보정 기법에 적용하는 연구를 수행하였다. 요에러시 공력 하중 예측에 관한 수치해석 기법 연구의 적절성을 알아보기 위해 NREL-Phase VI Rotor 실험 결과와 비교 하였다. 그 결과 기존의 여타의 기법들과 비교하여 본 연구에서 제안한 기법의 적절성을 확인 할 수 있었다. 앞으로 본 연구를 바탕으로 다양한 비정상 공력 조건에 대한 풍력 블레이드의 공력 하중 해석에 대해 수행할 계획이다.

In this paper, we propose an efficient technique for improving the grid based fluid simulation by sub-grid visuals. The detailed turbulency generated efficiently by Vortex Particle Method are blended with the flow fields coming from the traditional incompressible Navier-Stokes solver. The algorithm enables large- and small- scale detail to be edited separately.

원형주상체 주위의 유동을 규명하기 위해 회류수조에서 원주방향으로 24개의 위치에 대하여 압력을 계측하였으며, laser sheet을 이용하여 유동을 가시화 하였다. Reynolds수가 4800에서 40000인 범위에 대하여 실험을 수행하였다. 또한, 원형단면체 주위의 비정상 층류유동에 대한 Navier-Stokes방정식의 해를 구하는 수치해석기법을 개발하였다. 효과적인 격자배치를 위하여 H와 O-type의 중첩격자를 사용하였고, 이산화 방법으로는 정규격자시스템에서 유한차분법을 적용하였다. 실험과 수치해석결과에서 뚜렷한 와류박리현상을 볼 수 있었으며, 압력계수 (C$_{p}$ ), 항력계수(C$_{D}$), 스트로얼수(St)를 정량적으로 비교하였을 때, 비교적 잘 일치하는 것을 확인하였다.다.

The unsteady vortex lattice method is used to model twisting and flapping motions of a rectangular flat plate wing. The results for plunging and pitching motions were compared with the limited experimental results available and other numerical methods. They show that the method is capable of simulating many of the features of complex flapping flight. The lift, thrust and propulsive efficiency of a rectangular flat plate wing have been calculated for various twisting angles and reduced frequency with an amplitude of flapping angle($20^{\circ}$). And the effects of the twisting on the aerodynamic characteristics of the flapping wing are discussed by examination of their trends.

An aerodynamic shape optimization technique has been developed for helicopter rotor blades in hover based on a continuous adjoint method on unstructured meshes. The Euler flow solver and the continuous adjoint sensitivity analysis were formulated on the rotating frame of reference for hovering rotor blades. In order to handle the repeated evaluation of the design cycle efficiently, the flow and adjoint solvers were parallelized using a domain decomposition strategy. A solution-adaptive mesh refinement technique was adopted for the accurate capturing of the tip vortex. Applications were made for the aerodynamic shape optimization of Caradonna-Tung rotor blades and UH60 rotor blades in hover. The results showed that the present method is an effective tool to determine optimum aerodynamic shapes of rotor blades requiring less torque while maintaining the desired thrust level.

Effects of helicopter wakes on helicopter aerodynamics are serious, but the wake configuration is very complicated and hard to predict. The purpose of this study is the detailed observation of wake using numerical methods. Vortex lattice method and freewake method are used to track the vortices in the wake. In this paper, the wake configuration is observed during hovering flight. In the case of hovering flight at the moderate thrust level, besides tip vortex, counter-rotating vortex can be observed at the inboard part of blade. When the vortices move downward, tip vortex and counter-rotating vortex get close and influence to each other. Therefore, vortices are highly distorted due to their own instability.

This paper presents comparative results of configuration modeling and aerodynamic analysis to single-engine airplanes such as C-172, SR-20, and DA40NG. The software OpenVSP was used as an airplane configuration modeling tool. OpenVSP can provide the fastest method to get three-dimensional aircraft configuration from given basic data and drawings of aircraft. Parametric design input in OpenVSP, from given aircraft geometric parameters, was applied to small airplanes mentioned. New aircraft models in this study were reversely designed to coincide with the publicly obtained dimensions of the original aircraft. The basic aerodynamic analysis of newly designed modeling aircraft was performed by the vortex lattice method. Results are shown that the similarity of aerodynamic data obtained except for the lack of DA40NG. In conclusion, the modeling process applied to this work is valuable to obtain conceptual design insight in the reverse design from the small airplanes currently in use for flight training.

Without any validation of the incompressible assumption, most of previous studies on cavitation flow and its noise have utilized numerical methods based on the incompressible Reynolds Average Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations because of advantage of its efficiency. In this study, to investigate the effects of the flow compressibility on the Tip Vortex Cavitation (TVC) flow and noise, both the incompressible and compressible simulations are performed to simulate the TVC flow, and the Ffowcs Williams and Hawkings (FW-H) integral equation is utilized to predict the TVC noise. The DARPA Suboff submarine body with an underwater propeller of a skew angle of 17 degree is targeted to account for the effects of upstream disturbance. The computation domain is set to be same as the test-section of the large cavitation tunnel in Korea Research Institute of Ships and Ocean Engineering to compare the prediction results with the measured ones. To predict the TVC accurately, the Delayed Detached Eddy Simulation (DDES) technique is used in combination with the adaptive grid techniques. The acoustic spectrum obtained using the compressible flow solver shows closer agreement with the measured one.

The climate change occurring all over the world increases the risk, specially in urban area, Accordingly, rainwater pumping station expansion is required than before. In order to increase the efficiency of the rainwater pumping station, the analysis of flow characteristics in the pump sump is needed for vortex control. Many efforts have been made to illuminate the vortex behavior using PIV, but any reliable results have not been obtained yet, because of the limitations in image capturing and dependency of measured velocity values on the interrogation area and time interval used for velocity calculation. In this study, therefore, experiments were carried out to find out the limitation of PIV and estimate the validation of the velocity values associated with the analysis parameters such as interrogation area, time interval, grid size. For the experimental condition used in this study, the limitation of PIV and the effects of parameters on the velocity estimation are presented.
