The primary objective of the current work is to predict speed performance of the medium patrol boat over $F_N=0.5$ employing experimental materials based on the CFD before model tests. In other words, the predicted brake powers according to ship speeds are assessed satisfying the main engine capacity. The subject ships are selected the two different stern hull forms. The flow computation are conducted considering free surface and dynamic trim using a commercial CFD code(STAR-CCM+). The resistances of the bare-hull are obtained from CFD. Wave patterns, pressures and limiting streamlines on the hull and velocity distribution in the propeller plane for the two hull forms are compared using CFD. The effective powers of the object ships are assessed based on CFD. Resistance increase according to the attached appendages and quasi-propulsive efficiency are employed the experimental datas. Speed performance prediction method concerning high speed vessels like a medium patrol boat is developed employing CFD and experimental data.

Experiments have been performed using two-color PIV in hydrogen non-premixed flames with various conditions of coaxial air, which was classified into three cases with/without reaction. Mean velocity, turbulence intensity and Reynolds stress were analyzed using flow fields from PIV measurement First, the similarity of pure jet had a good agreement with previous results of other researchers. It was found that the decay of centerline velocity was proportional to $x^{-1}$ in coaxial air conditions. By normalizing axial distance with effective jet diameter defined by effective density, the data of centerline velocity collapsed a single line. And the radial profiles of mean velocity showed that they didn't become self-similar because the curves differed from each other as coaxial air velocity increased at fixed fuel velocity. Also, turbulence intensity became self-similar further downstream than mean velocity.

The swirl flow applied for high efficiency and reduction of emission such as NOx, CO in a gas turbine engine makes recirculation zone by shear layer in the combustion chamber. This recirculation zone influences a decreasing flame temperature and flame length by burned gas recirculation. Also it is able to suppress from instability in lean-premixed flame. In this study, it was found that the swirl flow field was characterized as function of swirl number using PIV measurement in dump combustor. As increasing swirl number, a change of flow field was presented and recirculation zone was shifted in the nozzle exit direction. Also turbulent intensity and turbulent length scale in combustor were decreased in combustion. It has shown reduction of eddies scale with swirl number increasing.

It is very important to understand the flow characteristics for design of the hull forms with better resistance and propulsive performance. The experimental results explicating the local flow characteristics are also invaluable for validation of the CFD codes for both inviscid and viscous flow calculations. This paper describes the techniques and equipment developed for the measurement of wave pattern on the free surface and local mean velocity fields around the stern of the modern container ship with bow and stern bulbs in KRISO towing tank. The results contained in this paper can provide the valuable information on the flow characteristics of the modern commercial hull form of small block coefficient with high speed.

The flow characteristics around KRISO 300K VLCC double-body model have been experimentally investigated in a closed-type subsonic wind tunnel. The local mean velocity and turbulence statistics including turbulent intensity. Reynolds shear stress and turbulent kinetic energy were measured using a x-type hot-wire probe. The measurements were carried out at several transverse stations of the stern and near wake regions. The surface flow was visualized using on oil-film technique to see the flow pattern qualitatively. The flow in the stern and near wake region revealed complicated three-dimensional flow characteristics. The VLCC model shows a hook-shaped wake structure behind the propeller boss in the main longitudinal vortex region. The thin boundary layer at midship was increased gradually in thickness over the stern and evolved into a full three-dimensional turbulent wake.

Contrary to the flow rate in fully filled pipe flows, the flow rate in partially filled pipe flows is significantly influenced by the variation of water level, channel slop, and so on. The major difference in these two flows results from the existence of a free surface. To make it clear, in the present study, a similarity of the velocity profile in a partially filled circular pipe has been investigated according to the water level. A particle image velocimetry (PIV) technique was applied to measure the three-dimensional velocity profiles. As a result, there is found a similarity of the velocity profile near the central region. However, near the side wall, the similarity is broken due to the interaction between the wall and the free surface.

연안과 천해의 저질은 그 상층 해수의 변화에 영향을 받으며, 또한 반대로 상층의 수질을 변화시키기도 한다. 저질은 지질학적 기원을 갖는 기부위에 상층의 물에서 가라앉는 부유현탁물질과 수중생물의 배설물, 생물의 사체 등의 유기질이 층을 이루면서 형성된다. 저질은 화학적, 생물적 변화나 물의 유동에 의한 영향을 받지만 변화속도가 비교적 작고, 상층 수질의 변화 결과를 누적적으로 받기 때문에 수질변화의 평균적 이력(履歷)을 간직하며, 수역의 오염의 진행경향이나 그 속도에 대해서 수질만으로는 알 수 없는 장기간의 영향에 대한 적산적(積算的)관점에서의 정보를 보유하고 있다. 이 조사해역은 굴을 비롯한 패류 양식장이 밀집분포하고 있는 해역이며, 진해만에서 수하식 양식장의 분포비중이 가장 큰 해역으로서 양식의 역사도 30년이 넘는다. 이 해역은 외해와의 해수교류가 원활하지 못하여 양식생물의 배설물과 양식장의 탈락물이 이 육지로부터 유입되는 오염부하물질과 더불어 그대로 해저에 퇴적되고 있는 곳이라고 할 수 있다. 이 연구는 양식장 저질의 유기오염의 수준을 평가하여 양식장 및 연안해역의 관리를 위한 자료로 제공하고자 하였다.

In the present study, characteristics of steady state laminar flows of a straight duct connected to a 180$^{o}$ curved duct were examined in the entrance region through experimental and numerical analyses. For the analysis, the governing equations of laminar flows in the Cartesian coordinate system were applied. Flow characteristics such as velocity profiles and secondary flows were investigated numerically and experimentally in a square cross-sectional straight duct by the PIV system and a CFD code(STAR CD). For the PIV measurement, smoke particles produced from mosquito coils. The experimental data were obtained at 9 points dividing the test sections by 400 3m. Experimental and numerical results can be summarized as follows. 1) Reynolds number, Re was increased, dimensionless velocity profiles at the outer wall were increased due to the effect of the centrifugal force and secondary flows. 2) The intensity of a secondary flow became stronger at the inner wall rather than the outer wall regardless of Reynolds number. Especially, fluid dynamic phenomenon called conner impact were observed at dimensionless axial position, x/D$_{h}$=50.

동맥의 일부분의 팽창하는 동맥류는 높은 사망률을 야기하는 혈관계 질환이다. 동맥류의 발생 및 파열에는 동맥류 내부의 혈류의 유동에 의한 혈관벽 전단 응력 및 압력이 주용한 원인 중 하나로 의심되고 있다. 복부대동맥류 내부의 혈류 유동 특성을 밝히기 위해서 동맥류의 최대 확장부가 복부동맥의 1.5배, 2배인 유리 모델을 제작하였다. 정상류 상태에서 다양한 레이놀즈수에 대해서 속도 및 난동도를 입자영상속도계를 이용하여 측정하였다. 경계층 박리로 인한 재순환 부분이 끝나는 재부착점은 동맥류 최대 확장부 후부에서 발생하였으며, 이 위치는 레이놀즈수의 변화에 따라 바뀌었다. 축방향 속도의 난동은 최대 확장부 후부에서 크게 나타났으며, 이 위치에서 난동에 의한 부가적 응력이 크며 혈관벽 구조변화가 발생하리라 예측된다. 동맥류 내부의 압력분포는 수치해석에 의해 계산되었다. 동맥류 내부 압력은 크기가 증가함에 따라 커졌으며 압력은 동맥류 최대 확장부 후부에서 발생하는 재부착점에서 최대값을 나타내었다. 동맥류 최대확장부 후부는 압력이 최대값을 가지며, 전단력의 변화 및 난동이 큰 지역이므로 동맥류의 파열이 발생하기 쉬운 지역으로 예측된다.

Linear estimation in isotropic turbulence is examined to approximate conditional averages in the form of fluctuating velocity fields conditioned on local velocity. The conditional flow fields and their associated vorticity field are computer using experimental data [Van Atta and Chen] and energy spectrum model [Driscoll and Kennedy]. It appears that ring vorticies could be the dominant structure. Due to the extremely large vorticity in the viscous region of a conditional ring vortex, the energy spectrum model can be used appropriately by changing the Reynolds number. The hairpin vortex could be detected by combining vorticies in isotropic field with an anisotropic orientation imbedded in uniform mean shear flow and this is consistent with other studies [Kim and Moin].
