Numerical analysis is conducted on the deformation of free surface of magnetic fluid. Steady magnetic fields are induced by a circular current loop. Governing equations of magnetic fields are solved by using the concept of vector potential. The free surface of magnetic fluid is formed by the balance of surface force, gravity, pressure difference, magnetic normal pressure and magnetic body force. The deformations of free surface of magnetic fluid are qualitatively clarified. And, the patterns of steady non-uniform magnetic fields induced by a circular current loop are quantitatively presented. The shape of free surface attained by the polar fluid approach is rougher and higher than that attained by the quasi-steady approach.

A fluid transient analysis on the Koreasat 1 & 2 pipeline system is conducted through numerical parametric studies in which unsteady friction results are compared with quasi-steady friction results and show relatively accurate prediction of the response curve with the unsteady friction. The code developed and used in this analysis has finished verification through comparing with the original Zielke model, the full and recursive convolution model and quasi-steady model as a reference. The unsteady friction is calculated by the recursive convolution Zielke model in which a complete evolution history of velocity field is no longer required so that it makes the fluid transient analysis on the complicated system possible. The results show that the application of quasi-steady friction to model cannot predict the entire response curve properly except the first peak amplitude but the application of unsteady friction to model can predict reasonably the response curve, therefore it is to know the characteristics of the propulsion system.

We make use of cubic B-spline interpolation function in two cases: heat conduction and fluid flow problems. Cubic B-spline test function is employed because it is superior to approximation of linear and non-linear problems. We investigated the accuracy of the numerical formulation and focused on the position of the breakpoints within the computational domain. When the domain is divided by partitions of equal space, the results show poor accuracy. For the case of a heat conduction problem this partition can not reflect the temperature gradient which is rapidly changed near the wall. To correct the problem, we have more grid points near the wall or the region which has a rapid change of variables. When we applied the unequally spaced breakpoints, the results show high accuracy. Based on the comparison of the linear problem, we extended to the highly non-linear fluid flow problems.

A parametric study on a fluidic oscillator was performed numerically in this work. Three-dimensional unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations were solved to analyze the flow in the fluidic oscillator. As turbulence closure, $k-{\varepsilon}$ model was employed. Validation of the numerical results was performed by comparing numerical results with experimental data for frequency of the oscillation. The parametric study was performed using five geometric parameters. Performance of the fluidic oscillator was evaluated in terms of velocity ratio and pressure drop. The results show that the inlet channel width and the distance between splitters are important factors in determining the performance of the fludic oscillator.

Hydromagnetic flow in a confined enclosure under a uniform magnetic field is studied numerically. The thermally active side walls of the enclosure are kept at hot and cold temperatures specified, while the top and bottom walls are insulated. The coupled momentum and energy equations associating with the electromagnetic retarding force as well as the buoyancy force terms are solved by an iterative procedure using the SIMPLER algorithm based on control volume approach. The changes in the flow and thermal field based on the orientation of an external magnetic field, which varies from 0 to $2{\pi}$ radians, are investigated. Resulting heat transfer characteristics are examined too.

Numerical investigation of asymmetric vortices at high angles of attack subsonic flow is performed using three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. A small bump has been carefully selected and attached near the nose of an ogive cylinder to simulate symmetric vortices. Selected bump shape does develop asymmetric vortices and is verified using Lamont's experimental results. By changing the angle of attack, Reynolds numbers, and Mach numbers, the characteristics of asymmetric vortices are observed. The angle of attack which contributes significantly to the generation of asymmetric vortices are over 30 degrees. By increasing Mach number and Reynolds number asymmetric vortices, hence the side forces show decreasing trend..

태양열 시스템에 사용되는 간접접촉을 열교환기는 열전달률감소, 부식, 스케일링 등의 문제에 기인하는 단점을 갖고 있다. 이러한 문제들을 해결하기 위하여 직접접촉 열교환기의 사용이 제안된다. 본 연구에서는 직접접촉 열교환기로서 분사칼럼이 도입되었다. 열전달률을 증가기키기위하여 작동유체는 연속유체와의 접촉면적을 증가시키기위하여 칼럼내에서 작고 균일한 방울들로 분산된다. 또한 작고 균일한 방울들로 만들기 위하여 열교환기 칼럼내에서 메쉬가 설치되었다. 디에틸 프탈레이트(Diethyl Pthalate , 밀도 : 1,052g/㎤)가 작동유체로 사용되었고, 메쉬가 있는 경우와 없는 경우로 비교 실험되었다. 실험중 칼럼의 길이방향으로 온도측정을 하였고, 두 유체간의 직접접촉 열교환 메카니즘을 알기 위하여 방울의 사진을 통하여 분석하였다. 방울이 제트형태로 형성될 때 방울은 작고 균일하였다. 한편 방울형태로 형성될 때는 크고 불균일하게 관찰되었으나 , 메쉬를 통해 칼럼내에서 효과적으로 작고 균일한 방울들로 되었다.

컴퓨터 성능과 전산유체역학 분야는 지속적으로 발전하고 있으므로 이에 따라 유체의 유동장은 더욱 정확하고 상세히 묘사할 수 있게 될 것이며, 더불어 ALE유한요소법 등과 같은 유체-구조 상호작용해석 기법이 발전해 나갈 것이다. 따라서, 현재 수행되고 있는 풍동실험은 다양한 모형제작으로 인한 비용문제와 완성된 모형의 정밀도 문제, 각 모형에 대한 반복적인 실험과정 등 적절한 설계형상을 선택하는 과정에서 효율성이 낮은 경우가 많으므로 수치해석에 의한 내풍안정성 평가과정을 병행함으로써 실험의 효율성이 낮은 부분을 보완, 최소화할 수 있을 것이다. 특히 적은 비용 및 시간내에 개략적인 내풍안정성 파악이 요구되는 개념설계 및 초기설계단계에 근사적인 내풍안정성 검토 기술로서 결과적으로 활용될 수 있을 것이다. 또한 수치해석기법의 가장 큰 장애요인었던 유체 유동장의 모사정도가 향상됨에 따라 수치해석에 의한 장대구조물의 내풍안정성해석은 앞으로 상당한 발전이 있을 것으로 전망된다.

In the present work, flow analysis has been performed for side channel type double stage ring blower by solving three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equation. Shear stress transport model is used as turbulent closure. The commercial CFD code CFX 11.0 is used for the calculations. Each of two stage is calculated separately and the second stage inlet flow is same as the first stage outlet flow so that consecutive calculation is possible. Velocity and pressure fields have been analyzed at the mid-plane between blades. The numerical results are validated with experimental data for head coefficients at different flow coefficients.
