Due to the interaction between main oxidizer flow and the wall injected flow resulting from the regression process, a specific time characteristics identified in the frequency spectrum of streamwise velocity is generated in the hybrid rocket motor. In order to understand the response of the turbulent flow to two different types of external momentum forcing, LES analysis was conducted without considering the combustion. It turns out that both concentrated and distributed forcings do not lead to the disastrous resonance phenomenon. Energy contents are enhanced due to the added momentum but the peak frequency was not modified in the turbulent flow near the end of the rocket motor. Natural frequency of the flow system should be taken into account to further pursue the instability issue by using external forcing.

A three-dimensional inviscid flow solver has been developed based on unstructured meshes for the investigation of the effect of the external stores on the tail surfaces of a generic fighter aircraft. The numerical method is based on a vertex-centered finite-volume discretization and an implicit point Gauss-Seidel time integration. The calculations were made for a steady flow and the computed results were compared with experimental data to validate the flow solver. An unsteady time-accurate computation of the generic fighter aircraft with external stores at transonic flight conditions showed that the external stores cause unsteady loading on the horizontal tail surface due to the mutual interference between their wake and the horizontal tail surface. It was shown that downward deflection of the trailing edge flap significantly reduces the undesirable interference effect.

In this study, wind tunnel test on Quad-Tilt Propeller which has tandem wings is carried out to analyze the aerodynamic interference effect of front wing and propeller on rear wing during forward flight. Using 6-axis balance system, forces and moments of whole aircraft were measured and using strain gauge at wing root, bending moments were measured to observe change of aerodynamic force of each wings. A 12-hole probe was used to measure the flow field in the wing and propeller wake. Flow characteristics were observed qualitatively through flow visualization experiment using tuft and smoke. To measure the aerodynamic interference by elements, the influence of front wing and propeller on rear wing was analyzed by changing the wings and propellers mount combination.

본 논문에서는 3차원 섬유분포를 가정하여 고유동 섬유보강 시멘트 모르타르의 유동에 따른 섬유방향성변화를 해석적으로 파악해 보았다. 유동흐름은 평면상의 2차원 완전발달 전단흐름을 고려하였다. 유동에 따른 섬유의 회전운동은 섬유간의 상호 간섭효과를 무시한 Jeffery의 기본식에 근거하였다. 굳지 않은 섬유혼입 모르타르의 유동에 따른 섬유방향성 분포 변화를 흐름선과 동일 유동거리 상의 단면에 대해 파악하였다. 그 결과, 단면 내 위치에 따라서 섬유방향성 분포 변화가 크게 차이가 발생하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 유동거리에 따른 단면상의 섬유방향성 분포는 초기 유동거리에서 분포 형상에 큰 변화가 발생하였고, 유동에 따라 섬유가 유동방향과 나란하게 놓이는 경향이 커지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 섬유방향성 변화의 예측은 섬유보강 시멘트 복합체의 인장특성에 예측하는데 유용하게 사용될 것이다.

In the present study, unsteady calculations have been performed to simulate flows around a UH-60A full configuration including main rotor, fuselage, and tail rotor. A flow solver developed for helicopter aerodynamic analysis was used for the simulation of the complete helicopter in high-speed and low-speed forward flight. Unsteady vibratory loads on the main rotor blades were compared with flight test and other calculated data for the assessment of the present flow solver. Aerodynamic interaction of the three components of the helicopter was investigated by comparing with the results of main-rotor-alone, main rotor and fuselage, and tail-rotor-alone configurations. It was found that the existence of the fuselage has an effect on the normal force distribution of the main rotor by varying downwash distribution on the rotor disc, and tip vortices trailed from the main rotor strongly interact with the tail-rotor.

In this study, advanced (fluid-structure interaction (FSI)) analysis system has been developed in order to predict turbine cascade performance with blade deformation effect due to aerodynamic loads. Intereference effects due to the relative movement of the rotor cascade with respect to the stator cascade are also considered. Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with one equation Spalart-Allmaras and two-equation k-ω SST turbulence models are solved to accurately predict fluid dynamic loads considering flow separation effects. A fully implicit time marching scheme based on the (coupled Newmark time-integration method) with high artificial damping is efficiently used to compute the complex fluid-structure interaction problem. Predicted aerodynamic performance considering structural deformation effect of the blade shows somewhat different results compared to the case of rigid blade model. Cascade performance evaluations for different elastic axis positions are importantly presented and its aeroelastic effects are investigated.

In this study, computational analyses are carried out to investigate the interference flows and the aerodynamic characteristics of a hit-to-kill intercepter due to lateral jets at medium altitude. In addition, the analyses are performed for air and multi-species gas used in the side jet. The results indicate that the position of the barrel shock are shifted upstream and the structure of the shock wave are changed for the multi-species jet when compared to the air jet. As a result, the high pressure region with multi-species jet moves forward and the pitching moment is higher under the same flow condition. Moreover, the inclusion of high temperature effects makes drastic changes in pressure distribution. The jet width is much bigger, and the jet diffuses over wider range in medium altitude than in low altitude, because of the low density of the freestream.

A turbine stage consists of stators and rotors. The stator provides the required inlet flow conditions so that the rotor can produce the necessary power. Passing wakes generated from the trailing edge of the stator make an interaction with the rotor. In the present study, this flow mechanism is investigated using the numerical analysis. In case of a large gap distance between the stator and rotor, the flow can be solved independently. First, only the stator flow field is solved. Second, the rotor flow field is solved including the passing wake characteristics obtained from the stator analysis. The passing wake experiences the shearing as it approaches to the rotor blade leading edge. And it is chopped when it strikes the rotor blade. After that, the chopped wakes becomes the prolongation as it travels downstream. The flow according to the variation of the gap distance is also studied. Pressure jumps due to the passing wakes result in the pressure and lift loss and it gets stronger with the closer gap distance.

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.
