체외수정을 기반으로 이루어지는 성게의 수정 과정은 성게 주변에서 형성되는 복잡한 난류 흐름의 영향을 받게 된다. 성게 몸체의 하류부에 형성되는 재순환 영역 (recirculation zone) 내에는 다양한 난류 와류 흐름이 존재하며, 이들은 성게 몸체에서 방출된 정자와 난자의 충돌을 일으키고 수정 과정에 지대한 영향을 미친다. 즉, 성게의 수정 과정을 이해하기 위해서는 성게 주변의 흐름에 대한 유체역학적 관점에서의 분석이 수행되어야 한다. 본 연구의 목적은 성게 몸체에 의해 발생한 난류 흐름이 성게의 체외 수정에 미치는 영향에 대해 조사하는 것이다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 상용 프로그램인 오픈폼 (OpenFaom)을 활용하여 수치 모의를 수행하였다. 성게 주변의 유동장은 LES (Large Eddy Simulation)을 기반으로 모의하였고, 정자와 난자의 확산 궤적은 라그랑지안 입자 추적 (Lagrangian Particle Tracking) 알고리즘을 통해 구현하였다. 총 5개의 유속 조건 (0.025 - 0.20 m/s) 에 대해 모의를 수행하였으며 정자와 난자 사이의 거리를 바탕으로 수정률을 산정하였다. 정자와 난자의 뭉쳐있거나 퍼져있는 공간적인 분포 형태는 Standardized Morisita 지수를 통해 수치적으로 표현하였으며 이들과 수정률과의 관계를 규명하였다. 연구 결과에 따르면 성게 수정은 유속 조건이 0.1 m/s일 때 가장 빈번하게 발생하였으며, 성게 수정의 성공 여부는 크게 2가지 조건에 의해 결정되었다. 첫 번째로, Standardized Morisita 지수가 높을수록 다시 말해 생식세포들이 공간적으로 뭉쳐있어야 하며 두 번째는, 생식세포들을 충돌시킬 수 있는 원동력인 작은 와류가 존재해야 한다. 와류의 크기가 너무 크게 되면 생식세포들은 충돌하지 않고 확산만 되기 때문에 오히려 수정률이 감소하였다. 영역별로 분석한 결과에 따르면, 성게 몸체에 의해 형성된 재순환 영역이 수정과정에 있어 가장 지배적인 영역임을 확인하였다.

A fluidic device (FD) has been adopted in the safety injection tanks (SITs) of APR1400. A flow control mechanism of the FD was used to vary the flow regime in the vortex chamber corresponding to the SITs water level. The flow regime in the vortex chamber has a different pressure loss from low to high in accordance with the SITs water level. Nitrogen at the top of the SIT could be released owing to inertia of discharge flow when changing from a high flow rate to a low flow rate. This phenomenon is important to design improvement perspective because it can affect the performance of the FD. This paper shows a result of a preliminary numerical study to obtain the transient data related to air release in the flow turn-down period using a two-fluid free-surface model provided from ANSYS CFX 13.0. In conclusion, there is no significant effect on the performance of the FD, though a small quantity of air is released during the flow turn-down period.

Visualization was done by using $CH^*$ chemiluminescence images and PMT measurements in order to understand the origin of fluctuating pressure and chemical luminosity at about 500 Hz frequency even in stable combustion, which was observed in recent experimental tests, and to find the physical correlation leading to Low Frequency Instability(LFI) in terms of phase angle. In stable combustion, chemical reactions are distributed along the shear layer flow showing a negative coupling(about 180 degree in phase angle) with combustion pressure. However, phase difference is shifted to a positive coupling showing less than 90 degree in unstable case. Also a periodic change in the distribution of chemical reactions is observed along with local flame extinction and the appearance of big scale vortex flow. In the transition to LFI, local flame extinction and small vortex flow start to appear in a row. As seen in the bluff body wake in reactive flow, the periodic appearance of vortex flow seems to share the same physical process of BVK(Bernard Von Karman) instability generation. Thus, the appearance of local extinction in 500 Hz fluctuations is gradually amplified to complete extinctions of about 20 Hz, and it leads into LFI.

비파괴검사(NDT)란 시험품에 손상을 주지 않고 내.외부에 존재하는 불연속부(결함)을 찾아내는 방법으로 다음과 같이 그 종류를 분류할 수 있다.

This experimental study investigates the effects of a downstream cylinder in the wake change on upstream object's diameter. A V-shaped object is placed in the upstream of the test section and a circular cylinder containing a load-cell is placed in the downstream. The velocity distribution of the wake generated from the upstream object with a change in its diameter is investigated. Further, the fluctuation in the lift coefficient and Karman-vortex emission frequency with a change in the position of the downstream cylinder is examined. The study results reveal the following. i) The flow velocity in the wake is smaller than that in the main stream. ii) The lock-in phenomenon occurs when the diameter of the upstream object is larger than that of the downstream cylinder. iii) To generate maximum fluctuating lift force of the downstream cylinder in the wake, the position of the downstream cylinder must be moved with changing diameter of the upstream object together.

To understand the low frequency instability(LFI) characteristics in hybrid rockets combustion, effects of equivalence ratio variations on the phase shift between pressure and heat release oscillations were investigated by using the direct numerical simulation. The change in the equivalence ratio of the main chamber was simulated by the temperature and composition variation of the combustion gas introduced into the post-combustion chamber. In the results, additional combustion appeared along with vortex generation at the backward step, and combustion pressure and heat release oscillations were observed as the vortex moved. In addition, the results confirmed that the phase difference between the pressure and heat release oscillation shifts because of the changes in the propagation velocity of pressure wave as the temperature of combustion gas changes.

Eyer since the Prandtl's experiment in 1934 and X-21 airjet test in 1950 both attempting to reduce drag, it was found that controlling the velocities of surface for extremely fast-moving object in the air through suction or injection was highly effective and active method. To obtain the right amount of suction or injection, however, repetitive trial-and error parameter test has been still used up to now. This study started from an attempt to decide optimal amount of suction and injection of incompressible Navier-Stokes by employing optimization techniques. However, optimization with traditional methods are very limited, especially when Reynolds number gets high and many unexpected variables emerges. In earlier study, we have proposed an algorithm to solve this problem by using step by step method in analysis and introducing SQP method in optimization. In this study, we propose more effective and robust algorithm and techniques in solving flow optimization problem.

A solar power generator is usually installed outdoors and it is exposed to extreme environments such as heavy fall of snow and high speed wind. Therefore, the solar tracker structure should be designed to have sufficient static and dynamic stiffness against such environmental conditions. In this paper, eigenvalue analysis of the solar tracker is carried out by varying the pose of the solar panel and unsteady flow analysis around a single tracker or multi-trackers arranged in a line is performed by varying the parameters such as wind directions, wind speeds and the pose of the solar panel to evaluate whether there exists an instability of resonance due to vortex shedding. Finite element eigenvalue analysis shows that natural frequencies and modes are almost not influenced by the pose of the solar panel and the finite element flow analysis shows that there does not exist periodic vortex shedding due to the flow around single tracker or multiple solar trackers in a line.

The behaviors of combustion-induced internal flows of SRM equipped with fin-slot grain and submerged nozzle are very complex and diverse. Cold air-flow tests for 2D and 3D scale models of SRM have been done in order to specify the visualization method to analyze particular internal flow patterns such as roll-torque inducing flow. Swirl flow induced by asymmetric vortical tubes also has been visualized through employing various light source and recording directions.
