Subcooled boiling under low pressure was numerically investigated using computational fluid dynamics(CFD). The wall boiling model was used for simulating the subcooled boiling; this model requires sub-models consisting of bubble departure diameter, nucleation site density and bubble departure frequency. The CFD code CFX provides the default models based on experimental data. Because these models are mostly developed under high pressure conditions, it would not be predicted well in low pressure conditions. Thus in this study, CFD validation for subcooled boiling under low pressure was analyzed. The numerical results were compared with experimental data from published paper. Simulations were performed with mass flux ranging from 250 to $750kg/m^2s$, heat flux ranging from 0.37 to $0.77MW/m^2$ and constant outlet pressure of 0.11 MPa. Employing the empirical correlation developed under low pressures could increase the accuracy of numerical analysis.

This paper describes the development of new sweeping machine based on Cyclone Technology, which maintains constant suction power and uses it in a industrial applications as a method for dust removed from grinding work. The performance of a cyclone separator is determined by the turbulence characteristics and particle-particle interaction. To achieve this goal, we design cyclone technology based dust separator for sweeping machine has been proposed as a system which is suitable to work utilizing dust suction alternative to conventional manual system. and Numerical analysis with computational fluid dynamics(CFD) was carried out to investigate the working fluid that flow into cyclone dust separator in order to design optimal structure of the sweeping machine. The validation of cyclone model with CFD is carried out by comparing with experimental results.

이 글에서는 CFD의 효율적인 적용 및 사용을 통하여 제품의 설계와 생산 공정의 최적화가 어떻게 구현될 수 있으며 CFD를 이용한 최적화 과정 에서 걸림돌이 되는 것들로는 어떤 요소들이 있는 지 관하여 다루고자 한다. CFD와 같은 CAE tool 을 이용한 설계 과정의 최적화는 최신의 기술을 장착하고 있는 상업용 CFD 소프트웨어들에 의하여 가능하며 이들 코드들에 관한 특성들도 이 글 에셔 취급하고자 한다. 잘 알려진 바와 같이 제품 의 초기 개념 설계 단계에서부터 계획 및 상세설계에 이르기까지 각 단계에서 최적의 조건을 구하 기 위해서는 주어진 구속조건에서 변수들에 관한 반복적인 시뮬레이션이 수행되어야 한다. 이러한 과정에서 각각의 조건에 관한 시뮬레이션 과정이 시간이 비교적 많이 소요되는 수동적인 방법으로 이루어질 경우 최적화는 불가능하다. 즉 각 설계 변수의 최적화 조건을 구하기 위하여 CAE과정에 서 자동화(automation)은 필수적일 것이다. 전산 유체 역학(computational fluid dynamics)은 지난 30여 년 동안 다양한 유체유통 및 열전달 분야에서 사용되어져 오고 있는 시뮬레이션 기술이 다. 산업분야에서 CFD에 대한 요구가 증대됨에 따라 20여 년 전부터 상업용 CFD 코드가 등장하기 시작하였으며 근래 들어서는 약 80여 종류의 상업용 CFD 코드가 자동차, 전자, 화공, 건설, 조 선, 제강과 같은 여러가지 종류의 산업분야에서 이용되어 오고 있다 하지만 상업용 CFD 코드가 고가인 이유 때문에 비교적 풍부한 예산이 확보된 대기업 및 국책 연구소 중심으로 이에 관한 사용 자 층은 매우 제한적이었다. 아울러 사용상의 난 점 때문에 CFD를 전공한 전문가 집단 위주로 사 용되어 오고 있다. 이런 측면에서 볼 때 설계 분야 에 종사하는 엔지니어들이 CFD를 이용하여 설계를 하는 데는 상당한 괴리감이 존재하게 된다. 전 통적으로 CFD와 같은 해석은 설계에 대한 타당서 검증의 목적으로 설계 사이클에서 맨 마지막에 수행되어져 왔기 때문에 CFD가 설계에 직접적인 도움을 주지 못하고 보조의 역할밖에 하지 못하는 수몽척인 도구로 여겨져 왔다. 이려한 설계 경향 은 CFD가 설계 과정에서 요구하는 시간 내에 시뮬레이션이 불가능하기 때문에 나타난 현상이다 상기에서 언급된 문제점인 시abf레이션의 시간 단 축은 설계 부서 에서 사용되는 CAD 도구와 CFD와 같은 CAE tool을 적절하게 접목함으로써 (integration) 가능할 것이다. 이후에서는 CFD의 시뮬레이션 과정을 자동화하기 위하여 고려되어 야 할 요소들에는 어떤 것들이 있는지에 관하여 알아보고자 한다.

Rock grouting is important to improve the waterproof efficiency and mechanical strength of rock medium with joint for utilizing the underground rock space such as tunnel. The grouting materials typically has been used the cement materials, which represent Bingham fluid model. This model can express the relationship of viscosity and yield strength. In addition, it is dependent with elapsed time. The grouting injection performance can be deteriorated with an increase of viscosity and yield strength in the grouting process if the time dependence is ignored. Therefore, in this study, the characteristics of viscosity and yield strength were investigated according to water-cement ratio and time dependence in the laboratory test. Numerical simulation was carried out to investigate the grouting performance according to the time dependence of characteristics in terms of the viscosity model. Given the results, the grouting injected distance and cumulative grout volume were significantly decreased when the time dependence of grouting material was considered. This study, considering the characteristics according to the time dependence of viscosity and yield strength, will be meaningful to the design of grouting injection in field applications.

As one of the alternatives to solve the problem of unstable food supply and demand imbalance caused by abnormal climate change, the need for plant factories is increasing. Airflow in plant factory is recognized as one of important factor of plant which influence transpiration and heat transfer. On the other hand, Digital Twin (DT) is getting attention as a means of providing various services that are impossible only with the real system by replicating the real system in the virtual world. This study aimed to develop a digital twin model for airflow prediction that can predict airflow in various situations by applying the concept of digital twin to a plant factory in operation. To this end, first, the mathematical formalism of the digital twin model for airflow analysis in plant factories is presented, and based on this, the information necessary for airflow prediction modeling of a plant factory in operation is specified. Then, the shape of the plant factory is implemented in CAD and the DT model is developed by combining the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) components for airflow behavior analysis. Finally, the DT model for high-accuracy airflow prediction is completed through the validation of the model and the machine learning-based calibration process by comparing the simulation analysis result of the DT model with the actual airflow value collected from the plant factory.

ln this paper, a finite element analysis procedure is proposed for the incremental multi-step excavations in a fluid-saturated porous medium such as saturated soil ground. As the basis of derivation, Biot's equation was used. The proposed procedure was applied to some one- and two-dimensional problems under incremental excavations. Unsaturated cases as well as saturated cases were considered for comparison. Through numerical tests, the effects of permeability and excavation speed on the deformation history was investigated. Results showed that pore pressure built up during incremental excavation has a significant effect on the deformation and stresses of solid skeleton and validated the use of the present procedure for the analysis of multi-step excavations in fluid-saturated media such as in saturated shallow ground.

Wind tunnels tests have been evaluating wind load estimation by discussing the most important design elements in very tall buildings. Such tests have some uncertainties, however, with respect to the data of the reduced model and the calculated empirical values. In contrast, CFD analysis can simulate the actual scale and shorten the time of simulation. Nevertheless, the utilization of CFD analysis is negligible because of its low reliability. In this paper, the reliability of CFD analysis will be proven by comparing the results of a wind tunnel test and CFD analysis for the prototype models shown in previous studies. The effect of the turbulence intensity on the reliability is also presented.
