The primary objective of the current work is to obviously analyze regarding effects of trim conditions of a ship on resistance performance using model test and CFD. Model tests at a towing tank are conducted to investigate resistance for trim conditions at the given same displacement. Measured resistance shows small but distinct differences according to trim conditions. However, these differences are difficult to be clarified by measured physical quantities and wave pattern analysis from model tests. CFD is employed for the assessment of resistance performance according to trim conditions. The flow computation is conducted considering free surface and dynamic trim using a commercial CFD code (STAR-CCM+). The initiative of the present work is to systematically demonstrate pressure resistance acting on each region of divided finite zones of ship surface along the length and draught direction of surface when pressure distribution on the ship is interpreted. Also, a standard to assess the pressure resistance applied on the divided regions of a ship is established.

소형 풍력터빈 설계 시 고려해야 할 익형의 선택, 익형의 붙임각 및 Solidity 등이 터빈의 성능에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 한 개의 익형에 대한 공력계수를 이용하여 수학적 모델링을 통하여 최적 붙임각을 예측하여 경향을 파악하였다. 받음각에 따른 익형의 공력특성을 CFD 기법으로 파악한 후 5개의 Blade를 갖는 Turbine의 성능을 익형의 붙임각에 따라 파악하여 최대 성능을 갖는 붙임각을 최종 산출하였다. 익형 선정시 받음각에 대한 양력/항력 곡선을 이동시키는 캠버 익형의 기능보다는 항력 대양력의 비(L/D) 가 최대인 익형을 선정하는 것이 더욱 중요하며, Blade수가 적을수록 Torque의 양은 증가하고 Blade가 6이상이변 효율이 급격히 감소함을 알 수 있다.

In this study, the lift, drag and moments of the rudder that influences on the maneuvering ships directly has been investigated using CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics). One of typical ship rudders effecting on the forces and moments is the bow rudders during maneuvering on the sea. Thus, the forces and moments should be investigated for the bow of ship rudder. Among the IFS bow rudder series, the balance IFS 54 BR 15 is used for study. As a turbulent model, standard k-epsilon is applied to this study. The hydrodynamic of the bow rudder, especially lift, drag and moment coefficients are calculated for the different angles of attack. The angles of attack between water flow and rudder are presented in cases including 0°, 5°, 10°, 15°, 20°, 25°, 30° and 35°. The results of calculation for those influences on maneuvering performance of ships are compared with the relevant results of the previous experimental studies.

현재 전 세계적으로 가장 널리 개발하고 보급되어지고 있는 풍력산업의 시장 규모는 매년 확대되고 있다. 특히 소형 풍력발전 시스템은 낙도 등의 전력 공급이 어려운 지역에 경제성 있는 전력 보급을 가능하게 한다. 국내의 미전화 지역과 일반 가정에서 풍력 에너지 자원을 적극 활용 개발하기 위해서 보다 우수한 성능의 풍력발전기용 블레이드를 설계하고자, 공기역학적인 최적설계에 대해 연구함으로써 추후 보급형 풍력발전 시스템의 개발에 필요한 설계 기술을 확립하고자한다. 본 연구는 설계된 블레이드의 유동해석 및 성능예측을 위하여 경제적으로 많은 지원이 필요한 대규모 풍동실험이 아닌 상용 CFD를 사용하여 보다 효율적으로 우수한 성능을 가지는 풍력 터빈을 설계함에 있다. Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes 방정식에 기반을 둔 CFD의 경우 이론적으로 명확한 해석이 가능하고, 실제 터빈의 운전 환경과 동일한 다양한 물리적 변수를 입력 데이터로서 활용할 수 있는 장점이 있기 때문에 풍력 터빈의 설계 과정에서 반영된 미소한 블레이드 형상변화 및 운전 조건의 변화에 따른 유동장의 변화 및 풍력터빈 성능을 정확히 예측할 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다.

In this study, the effects of volute area distribution on the performance of a centrifugal pump were numerically studied using a commercial CFD code. To reduce the shutoff head, maintaining head and efficiency at a design flow rate, the flat head-capacity characteristic curves in which the head varies only slightly with capacity from shutoff to design capacity are frequently required. In order to control the shutoff head of a pump, several volute cross-sectional area distributions were proposed as a main parameter with the same impeller geometry The calculation results show that the slope of the performance characteristic curve of the centrifugal pump can be controlled by modifying the area distribution from volute tongue to volute outlet with fixed volute outlet area and also varied volute outlet area.

The authors carried out a model experiment to examine the hydrodynamic charactristics of the simple camber and the super-V otter board. The model otter boards are made of 1 mm thick iron plate. The simple camber otter board is made to have $12\%$ camber ratio and $432\;cm^2$ plane projected area, and the super-V otter board to have the same camber ratio as the former in every latitudinal section and almost the same plane projected area. The experiment had been done in a circular flow tank in the speed range of $0.1\~1.2m/sec$. As a result, it is examined that in the simple camber otter board the most effective angle of attack is about $25^{\circ}$, the shearing coefficient 1.47 and the drag coefficient 0.42, while in the super-V otter board they are about $20^{\circ}$, 1.40 and 0.40 respectively, so that the simple camber otter board performs a little better efficiency than the super-V otter board.

A fluidic device (FD) has been adopted in the safety injection tanks (SITs) of APR1400. A flow control mechanism of the FD was used to vary the flow regime in the vortex chamber corresponding to the SITs water level. The flow regime in the vortex chamber has a different pressure loss from low to high in accordance with the SITs water level. Nitrogen at the top of the SIT could be released owing to inertia of discharge flow when changing from a high flow rate to a low flow rate. This phenomenon is important to design improvement perspective because it can affect the performance of the FD. This paper shows a result of a preliminary numerical study to obtain the transient data related to air release in the flow turn-down period using a two-fluid free-surface model provided from ANSYS CFX 13.0. In conclusion, there is no significant effect on the performance of the FD, though a small quantity of air is released during the flow turn-down period.

Here has been examined a 3-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling in order to investigate the performance analysis of proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells with serpentine flow fields. The present CFD model considers the isothermal transport phenomena in a fuel cell involving mass, momentum transport, electrode kinetics, and potential fields. Co-current flow patterns for a PEMFC are considered for various geometries in the single straight cell. Current density distribution from the calculated distribution of oxygen and hydrogen mass fractions has been determined, where the activation overpotential has been also calculated within anode and cathode. CFD results showed that profiles differ from those simulations subjected to each the calculated activation overpotential. It is interesting that the present serpentine flow field shows the specific distribution of current density with respect to the aspect ratio of depth to width and the ratio of reaction area for various serpentine geometries. Simulation results were considered reasonable with the other CFD results reported in literature and global comparisons of the PEMFC model.
