Detailed flowfield resulting from the secondary sonic gas injection into a divergent section of supersonic conical nozzle has been numerically investigated. The three-dimensional flowfield associated with the bow-shock/boundary-layer interaction inside the nozzle has been solved by Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with an algebraic and $\kappa$-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model. The numerical results have been compared with the experimental results for the identical flow conditions, and it is shown that the comparison is satisfactory Effects of different injection pressures of the secondary jet on the shock/boundary-layer interactions and the overall flow structure inside the nozzle have been investigated. The vortex structures behind the shock interaction and wall pressure variations have also been studied.

천음속 또는 초음속 유동이 유동장의 하류에서 부여되는 압력조건에 의하여 감속되는 경우나, 유동방향의 갑작스런 변화를 요구하는 물체 혹은 벽면이 존재하는 경우에 발생한 충격파는 벽면을 따라 발생하는 층류 혹은 난류 경계층과 복잡한 상호간섭 (interaction)을 일으켜 충격파에 의한 박리 발생, 충격파 하류에 새로운 충격파 발생, 충격파가 큰 진폭으로 진동하게 되는 현상 등을 발생시킨다. 이러한 간섭현상은 고속유동이 통과하는 유체요소나 유체기기의 성능을 좌우하는 매우 중요한 유동현상으로, 유체기계의 설계 시 사전에 고려되어야 할 중요한 공학적 문제이다.(중략)

본 연구에서는 와선 지배방정식의 계산을 위해 쌍곡선 blending 함수를 이용하여 와선운동의 정확한 계산을 할 수 있었고 이 방법을 통하여 임의로 거동하는 와선이 강체구와 간섭하는 경우의 3차원 유동장에 대한 해석과 이에 의한 쌍극 음향장 해석을 수행하였다. 경계치 적분방법을 통해 강체구에 작용하는 힘을 계산할 수 있었고 이 방법은 물체의 형태에 구애 받지 않으므로 임의 형상에 대해서도 유동장과 음향장 계산이 가능하다고 본다.

미러 하우징에서 발생하는 윈드노이즈는 다양한 종류의 발생원인을 가지고 있다. 'A'-필라 와동과의 간섭으로 발생하는 것에서부터 하우징 자체의 형상 파라미터와 관련한 소음, 작은 부품간의 매칭상태에 따라 불리한 조건에서 발생하는 소음 등이 있다. 본 연구는 제조과정이나 조립과정에서 발생하는 소음이 아닌 순수 형상 변화에 따라 유동장과 소음장에 어떤 변화를 야기하는지에 대한 것으로 한정 지었으며 대표적인 디자인 파라미터 별 유동장과 소음장에 미치는 영향의 대소를 조사하였다. 조사 방법은 상용 CFD 툴인 PowerFLOW 해석을 통해 유동장 및 소음장에 대한 상세한 분석을 수행했으며 미러 디자인 측면에서 참고할 가이드를 제시하고자 했다.

A program that predicts trajectories of projectiles influenced by the interference flow field of helicopters is developed. The interference flow field are computed using a compressible inviscid solver in conjunction with an actuator disc model. The trajectories are predicted using 6-DOF (Degree of Freedom) equations as well as an alternative form of modified point mass equations of motion. The method for the interference flow field prediction method are validated with ROBIN(ROtor Body INteraction) model. A Sierra international bullet and a 105mm projectile are used to validate the trajectory method. Trajectories of a Sierra International bullet and a HYDRA 70 rocket firing from a helicopter are predicted.

Lateral thrust jet has better maneuverability performance than the control surface like the conventional fin for attitude control or orbital transition of guided weapons. However, in the supersonic region, a jet interaction flow occurs due to the lateral thrust jet during flight, and a complicated flow structure is exhibited by the interaction of the shock wave, boundary layer flow, and the vortex flow. Especially, hit-to-kill interceptors require precise control and maneuvering, so it is necessary to analyze the effect of jet interaction flow. Conventional jet interaction analyses were performed under low altitude conditions, but there are not many cases in the case of medium altitude condition, which has different flow characteristics. In this study, jet interaction flow analysis is performed on the lateral jet controlled interceptor operating at medium altitude. Based on the results, the structural characteristics of the flow field and the changes of aerodynamic coefficient are analyzed.

To numerically simulate aerodynamics of rotor-airframe interaction in a rigorous manner, we need to solve the Navier-Stokes system for a rotor-airframe combination in a single computational domain. This imposes a computational burden since rotating blades and a stationary body have to be simultaneously dealt with. An efficient alternative is a momentum source method in which the action of rotor is approximated as momentum source in a stationary mesh system built around the airframe. This makes the simulation much easier. The magnitude of the momentum source is usually evaluated by the blade element theory, which often results in a poor accuracy. In the present work, we evaluate the momentum source from the simulation data by using the Navier-Stokes equations only for a rotor system. Using this data, we simulated the time-averaged steady rotor-airfame interaction and developed the unsteady rotor-airframe interaction. Computations were carried out for the simplified rotor-airframe model (the Georgia Tech configuration) and the results were compared with experimental data. The results were in good agreement with experimental data, suggesting that the present approach is a usefull method for rotor-airframe interaction analysis.

Supersonic jets impinging on $60^{\cire}$ wedge were investigated to obtain fundamental design data for jet deflector It was of interest to study flow phenomena such as shock interaction and separation induced by shear layer. Experiments using supersonic cold flow system were conducted for Schlieren flow visualization and measurement of surface pressure. Numerical results were compared with the experimental results. The major parameters are underexpansion ratio, distance from nozzle to apex and design Mach number. Flow conditions were obtained for the wedge shock to attach on or detach from the wedge. The dominant feature of flow-field is shock pattern induced by the Interaction between the wedge shock and the barrel shock.

The interaction between wall blowing and oxidizer flow can generate a very complicated flow characteristics in combustion chamber of hybrid rockets. LES analysis was conducted with an in-house CFD code to investigate the features of turbulent flow without chemical reactions. The numerical results reveal that the flow oscillations at a certain frequency exists on the fuel surface, which is analogous to those observed in the solid propellant combustion. However, the observation of oscillating flow at a certain frequency is only limited to a very thin layer adjacent to wall surface and the strength of the oscillation is not strong enough to induce the drastic change in temperature gradient on the surface. The visualization of fluctuating pressure components shows the periodic appearance of relatively high and low pressure regions along the axial direction. This subsequently results in the oscillation of flow at a certain fixed frequency. This implies that the resonance phenomenon would be possible if the external disturbances such as acoustic excitation could be imposed to the oscillating flow in the combustion chamber.

An integrated analysis of kerosine/LOX based KSR-III rocket body/plume flowfield has been performed. The analysis has been executed employing three kind of gas thermo-chemical models including calorically perfect gas, multiple species chemically reacting gas, and chemically frozen gas models and their effect on rocket flowfield has been accessed to provide the most appropriate gas thermo-chemical model which meets a specific purpose of performing rocket body and plume analysis. The finite-rate chemically reacting flow solution exhibited higher temperature throughout the flowfield than other gas models due to the increased combustion gas temperature caused by the chemical reactions within the nozzle. All the reactions were dominated only in the shear layer and behind the barrel shock reflection region where the gas temperature is high and the effect of finite-rate chemical reactions on the flowfield was found to be minor. However, the present plume computation including finite-rate chemical reactions revealed major reactions occurring in the plume and their reaction mechanisms and as well.
