Structures of interfacial waves in nearly-horizontal countercurrent stratified air-water flow have been measured by means of a needle contact method. Based upon a statistical analysis for the liquid film distribution, statistical properties of the waves such as mean film thickness, mean wave amplitude and rms value of the wave fluctuation have been calculated. The results show that the film distribution can be described by a Gaussian probability density function for the three-dimensional wave regime. It is also indicated that the mean film thick ness and the rms value of the wave fluctuation increase as gas and liquid flow rates are increased in countercurrent two-phase flow. The dimensionless intensity of the wave fluctuation may be regarded as a function of the Froude number and the dimensionless mean film thickness.

회전열파이크는 전기모터, 고온가스터빈 등의 냉각에 이용함으로써 성능개선을 얻을 수 있다는 점에서 지난 20년 동안 많은 연구가 이루어져왔다. 그동안 내부벽면형상개발은 Taper를 설치하거나, 계단식 단면변화 또는 Impeller설치와 같은 기술들이 연구되었다. 본 연구는 회전 열파이프 용기내벽에 Coil Insert를 설치하여 응축액막 유동효과에 대한 가시화실험 및 열전달 성능실험을 통하여 그 특성을 검토하였고 아래와 같은 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 1) Pool 영역에서는 Coil Insert에 의한 축방향 펌프효과가 매우 크며, 그 효과는 나선각이 클수록 크게 나타난다. 2) Coil Insert는 Pool에서 환상류로 천이를 촉진시키며, 나선각이 클수록 그 효과가 크게 나타난다. 3) Coil insert 열파이프의 열저항에 미치는 효과는 크지 않은 것으로 보인다. 4) Coil Insert에 의해 Dry-out한계의 증가가 예상되지만, 실험장치의 열부하한계에 의해 확인할 수 없었다.

대형 틸팅패드 저어널베어링은 고속안정성 특성이 우수한 베어링으로서 시스템의 안정성이 매우 중요시되는 터빈발전기 등 대형 고속 회전기계에 많이 사용되고 있다. 그런데 이들 대형 저어널베어링에서는 유막의 온도상승이 매우 많고, 유체의 흐름이 거의 난류영역에 이르기 때문에 베어링의 운전특성을 정확하게 예측하기가 어려운 실정이다. Hopf & Schuler는 대형 틸팅패드 저어널베어링에 대한 실험적 연구에서 유동상태에 따라 베어링의 온도분포가 서로 달라진다고 발표하였다. 대형 틸팅패드 저어널베어링은 구조적으로 유동상태가 복잡할 뿐만 아니라 계산과정도 까다로운 편이어서 온도상승과 난류를 고려하여 엄밀하게 운전특성을 예측한 연구는 거의 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 대형 틸팅패드 저어널베어리으이 운전특성을 보다 엄밀하게 예측하기 위하여 3차원 적으로 유막의 점도변화 및 패드에서의 열전달을 고려하고, 와점성계수를 이용한 난류윤활이론을 사용하여 유막의 온도상승 및 난류가 베어링의 온도분포, 부하능력, 마찰손실 등의 운전특성에 미치는 영햐을 보다 엄밀하게 제시하고자 한다.

The transient incompressible flow behind the widely-spaced co-axial jet is numerically simulated using the random vortex method(RVM). This numerical approach is based on the Lagrangian approach for the vorticity formulation of the unsteady Navier-Stokes equations, utilizing vortex elements to account for the convection and diffusion processes. The effects of the mass flow rate of an annular air jet and a central fuel jet on the co-axial jet flow dynamics is investigated. To validate the present procedure, the numerical results are compared with the available experimental data the present procedure, the numerical results are compared with the available experimental data in terms of the centerline and off-centerline profiles of the mean axial velocity. Discrepancies between the RVM results and the measurements are discussed in detail.

Velocity profiles of laminar, transition and turbulent boundary layers were investigated by using Particle Image Velocimetry(PIV) measurements on the flat plate at Mach 2.96. The Schlieren visualization and PIV measurements are also used to confirm whether the oblique shock wave generated from the leading edge affects the flow field over the flat plate. The laminar velocity profile measured from the experiment was well matched with the compressible Blasius solution. The velocity profile of the transition boundary layer was well correlated with the theoretical turbulent velocity profile from near the wall and the transition began from Re = $1.41{\times}106$. For the turbulent boundary layer, considering compressibility effects, the Van Driest-transformed velocity satisfies the incompressible log-law. It is found that the log region is extended farther in the wall-normal direction compared to the log region in incompressible boundary layer.

Minimization of nozzle induces many flow losses in micro-propulsion system. In this study, we studied about thermal transpiration based micro propulsion system to overcome these losses. Thermal transpiration device(Knudsen pump) having no moving parts can self-pump the gaseous propellant by temperature gradient only (cold to hot). We designed, fabricated the Knudsen pump and analyzed pressure gradient efficiency of membrane according to Knudsen number under vacuum condition. Experimental results showed that thick membranes are more effective than thin membranes in transition flow regime, and pressure gradient efficiency according to Knudsen number is increased to maximum 82% apart from membrane thickness in free molecular regime.

In this study, it was experimentally investigated the effect of the clearances distance between the rod and the impinging plate on characteristics of the thermal flow. For the heat transfer enhancement of wall jet region, the right triangle and the square rods were arranged in front of the impinging plate with various clearance distances. As results, the heat transfer enhancement rate of potential core region at H/B=2 was higher than that of transition region at H/B=10. In this experiment range, the maximum heat transfer enhancement rate was about 46 % higher at the square rod with H/B=2 and C=1mm compared with the flat plate. The heat transfer enhancement rate of the right triangle rod was on average about 3 to 8 % higher than that of the square rod, regardless of the clearance.

In this study, a numerical study was conducted to characterize the E-D nozzle which changes according to the nozzle pressure ratios. Three different numerical analysis models were designed by changing the pintle inflection angles. When the nozzle pressure ratio is low, the outside air flows into the E-D nozzle to form an open flow field. As the nozzle pressure ratio increases, the flow transition occurs to become the closed flow field where the recirculation region is isolated inside the nozzle. Also, the highest thrust coefficient was obtained in the analytical model with high pintle inflection angle at all nozzle pressure ratios.

지표수-지하수 통합모형인 SWAT-MODLFOW는 토양수가 침루과정을 거쳐 지하수로 유입되는 일방향 구조를 갖고 있어 지하수위 상승 및 하강에 따른 토양수량, 침루량, 중간유출량 등 수문성분량의 변화를 고려할 수 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 지하수위 변화에 따른 토양수의 분포양상 변화를 고려할 수 있도록 토양수-지하수간의 연결 구조를 양방향으로 개선하여 두 영역간의 연결성을 강화하였다. 지하수위가 상승할 경우 토양대와 지하수대간의 중첩 영역이 생기게 되는데, 이 중첩 영역을 지하수대로 간주하여 영역 내 흐름거동이 지하수 유동 메커니즘을 따르는 토양수-지하수 결합루틴을 새롭게 제시하였다. 이 결합루틴은 지하수 상승, 하강에 따라 토양수대의 두께가 변하는 가변 토양층 방식(variable soil layer method)으로 계산을 수행할 수 있도록 코드를 구성하였다. 개선된 SWAT-MODLFOW 모형을 무심천 유역에 적용하여 토양수와 지하수간의 상호작용을 해석하고 하천저지대와 같이 지하수위 상승지역에서의 수문성분량의 분포를 보다 현실적으로 구현할 수 있음을 입증하였다.

A modified model is proposed for calculation of transitional boundary layer flows. In order to develop the eddy viscosity model for the problem, the flow is divided into three regions; namely, pre-transition region, transition region and fully turbulent region. The pre-transition eddy-viscosity is formulated by extending the mixing length concept. In the transition region, the eddy-viscosity model employs two length scales, i.e., pre-transition length scale and turbulent length scale pertaining to the regions upstream and the downstream, respectively, and a universal model of stream-wise intermittency variation is used as a function bridging the pre-transition region and the fully turbulent region. The proposed model is applied to calculate three benchmark cases of the transitional boundary layer flows with different free-stream turbulent intensity (1%∼6%) under zero-pressure gradient. It was found that the profiles of mean velocity and turbulent intensity, local maximum of velocity fluctuations, their locations as well as the stream-wise variation of integral properties such as skin friction, shape factor and maximum velocity fluctuations are very satisfactorily predicted throughout the flow regions.
