Characteristics of flow patterns in horizontal gas-liquid two-phase flow for two different sizes of pipe were investigated based upon a statistical analysis of differential pressure fluctuations at an orifice. The probability density function and the power spectral density function of the traces indicate peculiar shapes depending upon the two-phase flow regime. Mixed and separated flows also could be identified by the autocorrelation function. The transition region from separated flow to mixed flow also could be identified by these statistical properties. The experimental data determined by this method were compared with the flow pattern maps suggested by other investigators. The result indicates that the statistical characteristics of differential pressure fluctuations at orifices may be a useful tool for identifying flow patterns of horizontal gas-liquid two-phase flow.

후류손실을 가지는 혼합 전단층에 대하여 밀도변화가 없는 유동 및 밀도변화가 있는 유동의 선형 불안정성 해석을 수행하였다. 기본 유동의 속도장 및 밀도장은 tanh 함수를 사용하였으며, Gaussian 형태의 해석적 함수를 사용하여 두 유동을 분리시키는 평판 바로 다음에 존재하는 후류 손실 유동을 포함시켰다. 공간적 선형 불안정성 해석을 수행하여 불안정성 모드의 성장률과 파장속도를 주파수의 함수로서 구하였다. 해석 결과로부터 후류 손실을 가지는 혼합층은 sinuous 모드와 varicose 모드의 두 개의 불안정성 모드를 가짐을 알았다. 밀도가 균일한 경우에는 varicose 모드보다 sinuous 모드가 지배적이다. 밀도가 균일한 경우에는 varicose 모드보다 sinuous 모드가 지배적이다. 밀도구배가 존재하나 빠른 자유유동의 밀도가 높은 경우에는 밀도가 균일한 경우와 마찬가지로 sinuous 모드가 지배적인 모드가 된다. 그러나 느린 자유 유동의 밀도가 높은 경우에는 밀도장의 두께가 속도장의 두께보다 상대적으로 얇아지면 varicose 모드가 sinuous 모드보다 더욱 불안정하여질 수 있다. varicose 모드와 sinuous 모드의 성장률이 비슷한 밀도장의 두께에서는 두 불안정성 모드가 주파수 변화에 따라 분지 되어지는 경향을 보인다.

덕트유동에서 재료입자의 변형은 그 입자의 초기위치와 방향에 의존한다. 이러한 변 형과정을 이해하기 위하여 변형구배텐서를 덕트 전단면에 걸쳐 초기위치와 시간의 함수로 계산할수 있어야한다. 따라서 본 논문은 입자궤적 궤도에 접하는 직교좌표계를 선택하여 3 차원 덕트유동에서의 변형구배텐서를 덕트 전단면에 걸처 초기위치와 시간의 함수로 계산할 수 있어야한다. 따라서 본 논문은 입자궤적 궤도에 접하는 직교좌표계를 선택하여 3차원 덕 트 유동에서의 변형구배텐서를 효과적으로 계산할수 있는 간단한 방법을 제안한다. 이러한 특수 좌표계로부터 구해진 변형구배텐서가 덕트유동에서의 변형척도를 이해하는데에 매우 중요함을 알수 있었다.

In this study, we present a grid refinement model in the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) for two-dimensional incompressible fluid flow. That is, the model combines the desirable features of the lattice Boltzmann method and stream function-vorticity formulations. In order to obtain an accurate result, very fine grid (or lattice) is required near the solid boundary. Therefore, the grid refinement model is used in the lattice Boltzmann method for stream function-vorticity formulation. This approach is more efficient in that it can obtain the same accurate solution as that in single-block approach even if few lattices are used for computation. In order to validate the grid refinement approach for the stream function-vorticity formulation, the numerical simulations of lid-driven cavity flows were performed and good results were obtained.

A two-dimensional Stokes flow past a vertical plate in a channel is analyzed. The vertical plate is located at the center of the channel, and plane Poiseuille flow exists far upstream and downstream of the vertical plate. The Stokes approximation is used, and the flow is investigated analytically using the method of eigenfunction expansion and the point collocation method. From the analysis, the stream function and pressure distribution are obtained, and the pressure and shear stress distributions on the plate and channel wall are calculated. The additional pressure drop induced by the vertical plate and the force exerted on it are calculated as functions of the length of the vertical plate. For a typical length of the vertical plate, the streamline pattern and pressure distribution are shown. In addition, numerical analysis of laminar flow with a small Reynolds number is carried out to analyze the effect of a small Reynolds number on the flow pattern.

A two-dimensional Stokes flow past a circular cylinder in a channel is analyzed. The circular cylinder is located at the center of the channel, and a plane Poiseuille flow exists upstream and downstream far from the circular cylinder. The Stokes approximation is used, and the flow is investigated analytically by using the eigenfunction expansion and the least square methods. From the analysis, the stream function and pressure distribution are obtained, and the pressure and shear stress distributions on the circular cylinder and channel wall are calculated. The additional pressure drop induced by the circular cylinder and the force exerted on it are calculated as functions of the length of the radius of the circular cylinder. For a typical length of the radius of the circular cylinder, the streamline pattern and pressure distribution are shown.

A simple but efficient grid generation technique by using the modified compressible form of stream function has been formulated. Transformation of a physical plane to a streamline plane, the Von Mises Transformation, has been widely used to solve the differential equations governing flow phenomena, however, limitation arises in low velocity region of boundary layer, mixing layer and wake region where the relatively large grid spacing is inevitable. Modified Von Mises Transformation with simple mathematical adjustment for the stream function is suggested and applied to solve the confined coaxial turbulent jet mixing with simple $\kappa-\epsilon$ turbulence model. Comparison with several experimental data of axial mean velocity, turbulent kinetic energy, and Reynolds shear stress distribution shows quite good agreement in the mixing layer except in the centerline where the turbulent kinetic energy distributions were somewhat under estimated. This formulation is strongly suggested to be utilized specially for free turbulent mixing layers in axisymmetric flow conditions such as the investigation of mixing behavior, jet noise production and reduction for Turbofan engines.

This paper investigates the linear stability of wakes with special emphasis on the effect of chemical reaction. Velocity and density profiles for laminar flows are obtained from analytic profiles as well as from simulation. Wakes have two generalized inflection points and two unstable modes-sinuous and varicose modes. For analytical laminar profiles, sinuous modes are more unstable than varicose modes irrespective of density variation, which shows wakes will be destabilized by sinuous modes. Large velocity difference and density difference lead to more unstable wakes due to large momentum difference. For simulated laminar profiles, chemical reaction with stoichiometric chemistry increases temperature and stabilizes the flow due to increase in compressible reacting wades, flow becomes stable as velocity increases due to viscous dissipation.

Through the analysis of conventional TVD limiters, a new multi-dimensional limiting function is derived for an oscillation control in multi-dimensional flows. Then, Multi-dimensional Limiting Process (MLP) is developed with the multi-dimensional limiting function. The major advantage of MLP is to prevent oscillations across a multi-dimensional discontinuity, and it is readily compatible with more than 3rd order spatial interpolation. Moreover, MLP shows a good convergence characteristic in a steady problem and it is very simple to be implemented. Through numerical test cases, it is verified that MLP substantially improves accuracy, efficiency and robustness both in continuous and discontinuous flows.
