산업사회가 발전함에 따라 거대한 플랜트(plant)를 포함하여, 원자력 발전소 와 로켓트 등과 같이 구조적 안전성과 정확한 성능의 확보가 극히 중요시되 는 설비들이 많이 등장하고 있다. 이들 설비를 구성하고 있는 파이프계 (piping system)는 강성 또는 연성재료 및 각종 valve등으로 구성되어 있기 때문에, 고온 고압 고속의 유체가 파이프 내부를 흐를 때 일으키는 진동현상 및 플랜트의 과도운전 상황에서의 일어나는 수격현상(water hammer 또는 steam hammer)과 이로 기인한 제반 진동문제는 안전성확보 측면에서 많은 관심이 고조되고 있다. 이와 관련되어 유체유발진동에 관한 많은 연구들이 수행되었으며, 파이프계에 장착된 밸브에 대한 연구는 Weaver등에 의하여 실험적, 이론적으로 수행되었다. 그들은 유동방정식에서 비정상 베르누이 방 정식을 사용하여 내부유동방정식을 간략하게 유도하였으나, jet flow에 의한 유체의 운동량변화를 고려하지 않고 해석되어 그 결과에 의문이 제기된다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 체크밸브(check valve)가 부착된 파이프계에서 일어 나는 유체유발진동 및 안정성에 관한 이론적 연구를 수행하여, 파이프계의 설계에 필요한 파라미터의 영향을 파악하고자 한다. 원자력 발전소와 같이 구조적 안정성이 요구되는 플랜트를 국내 기술로 설계 시공하려는 국내 실 정에서 이로 인한 파이프계에 발생할 수 있는 유체유발진동과 안정성을 예 측할 수 있는 해석이론은 파이프계의 설계 및 운전조건의 선정에 있어서 그 의의가 크다고 할 수 있겠다.

최근 국내의 PWR 발전소에서는 유체유발진동에 의한 핵연료의 Fretting Wear가 많이 발생하였다. 이는 Baffle Jetting이나 그 밖의 요인도 있을 수 있으나 핵연료의 장주기화, 높은 열적여유도등의 설계요건을 만족하기 위한 노심 내의 유동조건 변화에 기인한다. 특히 고리 2호기에서 발생한 핵연료 손상 중 15%정도가 유체유발진동으로 추정되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 손상 핵연료의 노심내 위치, 부위, 유동조건 등으로 부터 유체유발진동의 주요 손상 원인을 규명하는데 있다. 이를 위해 핵연료 집합체에서 발생할 수 있는 유체유발진동 메카니즘의 특징과 유동조건, 손상 핵연료의 노심내 위치, 파손 부위, 집합체와 지지격자의 기하학적 형태를 고려한 유동 방향 등을 연관 분석 결과 파손을 일으키는 주요원인을 단일 집합체 내에서 발생되는 Vortex Shedding과 인접한 집합체 사이에서 발생되는 Fluidelastic Instability의 중복효과로 규명하였다 또한 최근 핵연료 설계에 도입된 Mixing Vane의 효과가 과도하여 핵연료 손상을 일으키는 가설을 정립하였다.

A novel cooling method induced by acoustic streaming generated by ultrasonic vibration at 30㎑ is presented. Ultrasonic vibration is obtained by piezoelectric devices and the maximum vibration amplitude of 50 m is achieved by including a horn, mechanical vibration amplifier in the system and making the complete system resonate. To investigate the enhancement of heat transfer capability of acoustic streaming, the temperature variations of heat source and air in the vicinity of heat source are measured in real-time. It is observed that acoustic streaming is instantly induced by ultrasonic vibration, resulting in the significant temperature drop due to the bulk air flow caused by acoustic streaming. In addition, it is observed that the cooling effect on the heat source is maximized when the gap between the ultrasonic vibrator and heat source coincides with the multiples of half-wavelength of the ultrasonic wave. This fact results from the resonance of the sound wave. The theoretical analysis of the dependence on the gap is also accomplished and verified by experiment. The advantage of the proposed cooling method by acoustic streaming is noise-free due to the ultrasonic vibration and maintenance-free because of the absence of moving parts. Moreover. This cooling method can be utilized to the nano and micro-electro mechanical systems, where the fan-based conventional cooling method can not be employed.

The pipping system is widely used in many industries as equipment for transporting fluids over long distances. In high-pressure pipe, as the speed of the fluid increases, a loud noise is generated. Therefore, various studies have been conducted to reduce pipe noise. In this paper, a pipe noise analysis was developed to predict and quantitatively assess the flow-induced vibration and acoustic-induced vibration due to valve flow in high-temperature and high-pressure. To do this, a high-fidelity fluid analysis technique was developed for predicting internal flow in the pipe with valve. In additional, the contribution of compressible/incompressible pressure by frequency band was evaluated using the wavenumber-frequency analysis. To predict a low/middle frequency pipe noise, the vibroacoustic analysis method was developed based on Finite Element Method (FEM). And the pipe noise prediction method for the middle/high frequency was developed based on Statistical Energy Analysis (SEA).

The nonlinear differential equations of motion of a fluid conveying curved pipe are derived by use of Hamiltonian approach. The extensible dynamics of curled pipe is based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. Some significant differences between linear and nonlinear equations and the dynamic characteristics are discussed. Generally, it can be shown that the natural frequencies in curved pipes are changed with flow velocity. Linearized natural frequencies of nonlinear equations are slightly different from those of linear equations.

A spacer grid assembly is one of the most important structural components of the nuclear fuel assembly of a Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR). A primary design requirement is that the fuel rod integrity be maintained by the spacer grid assembly during the operation of the reactor. In this study, we suggested a new spacer grid assembly having a fuel rod support, which is capable of sliding when the fuel rod vibrates due to flow-induced vibrations in the reactor. By adjusting the relative displacement between the fuel rod and its support, the proposed design will help in reducing fuel rod fretting damage.

Vortex-induced vibrations are a type of flow-induced vibrations caused by alternating lift forces. With increasing demand for renewable energy, the application of vortex-induced vibrations to renewable energy has been widely studied. Vortex-induced vibrations for aquatic clean energy (VIVACE) converter is a renewable energy device that generates electricity from rivers or oceans using vortex-induced vibrations. To increase the design life and power harnessing capacity of the VIVACE converter, the estimation of fluid forces due to vortex-induced vibrations is essential. Herein, vortex-induced vibrations were experimentally tested, and their amplitude and frequency response were measured. The amplitude results showed four different branches: initial branch, upper branch, lower branch, and desynchronization range. According to the fluid force coefficient results, the maximum lift coefficient occurred at the upper branch. Additionally, a mathematical model is proposed to estimate fluid forces due to vortex-induced vibrations without using measurement devices. This mathematical model enables the estimation of fluid force coefficients and phase lag using amplitude and frequency response of vortex-induced vibrations.

Improved version of previous 'Orthotropic' closure approximation, termed 'ORW' has been numerically developed using new homogeneous flow data. Previous 'Orthotropic' closure approximation, i.e., ORF or ORL showed non-physical oscillation for interaction coefficient $C_1$<0.001 at simple shear flow. It also shows non-physcial oscillation and under-prediction compared with 'Distribution Function Calculation' at non-homogeneous flow of center-gated disk. These phenomena are mainly due to the flow data of 'Distribution Function Calculation' which were used for least-square optimization. ORW obtained by fitting flow data of low interaction coefficient does not show non-physical oscillation and results in reasonably good behaviors at non-homogeneous flows as well as homogeneous flows. Fitting function forms have not been found to improve overall behaviors. It has been found that considering all the eigenvalues of orientation tensor (including the third eigenvalues) might end up with a better closure approximation than just considering the first and second eigenvalues. It is, however, very important and yet difficult to select appropriate function forms of eigenvalues. Numerical simulation including coupling and in-plane velocity gradient effects were performed for injection mold filing process with a film-gated strip and a center-gated disk using ORW and various other closure approximations for comparisons. Although ORW is in excellent agreement with 'Distribution Function Calculation', the predicted results seem to have consistent error in comparison with experimental data. The diffusivity term with constant interaction coefficient might have to be further investigated in order to accurately describe orientation states.
