A method is developed to include the effect of volume expansion in the description of the flame dynamics using G-equation. Line volume-source is used to represent the effect of the exothermic process of combustion with source strength determined by the density difference between the burned and the unburned region. Volume expansion adjusts the flow field to accommodate the increased volume flow rate crossing the flame front. Test result predicted the measured velocity field qualitatively. The method was applied to study the interaction of vortex and premixed flame. Increased volume expansion did not change the initial growth rate of flame area. However, the residence time and flame surface area increased with higher expansion ratios.

In this study a stretching-mapping method is proposed for calculating the materials' stretching exponents, which are to be used in quantification of the mixing effect. In this method, the mapping tensor associated with the deformation of each fluid material is first obtained. Then deformations of a lot of materials are obtained by applying the mapping tensor. The local stretching rates and their space-average values are next computed with the mapped deformations. Application to a simple time-periodic flow within a cavity shows that the method is indeed effective compared with the conventional method; i.e. the mapping method is fast and yields the same results as the conventional one.

The quality of chaotic mixing in three-dimensional micro channel flow has been numerically studied using Fractional-step method (FSM) and particle tracking techniques such as $Poincar{\acute{e}}$ section and Lyapunov exponents. The flow was driven by pressure distribution and the chaotic mixing was generated by applying alternating current to electrodes embedded on the bottom wall at a first half period and on the top wall at a second half period. The equations governing the velocity and concentration distributions were solved using FSM based on Finite Volume approach. Results showed that the mixing quality depended significantly on the modulation period. The modulation period for the best mixing performance was determined based on the mixing index for various initial conditions of concentration distribution. The optimal values of modulation period obtained by the particle tracking techniques were compared with those from the solution of concentration distribution equation using FSM and CFX software and the comparison showed their good match.

이 논평에서는 수치해석에 관련된 국내의 난류모델의 연구현황을 살펴보았다. 국내에서 연구가 많이 되었던 혼합거리모델, R, .epsilon. 2차방정식모델, 대수응력모델의 연구현황을 주로 살펴 보았다. 국내에서는 아직 연구인력이 적기 때문에 꼭 필요한 부분이지만 연구가 되지 않은 부 분이 많았으며 현재 연구가 되고 있는 부분도 그 연구량이 적은 형편이다. 앞으로 전산유체역 학에 의해 열유체기계내의 복잡한 난류유동을 해석하여 기계설계와 운전을 개선하는데 활용하기 위해서는 더욱 많은 연구가 요구된다. 그 중에서 특히 더 관심을 갖고 연구될 분야를 열거 해 보면 (1) 벽면부근의 저 레이놀즈 R, .epsilon. 방정식모델과 대수응력모델에 관한 연구 (2) 복잡한 3차원유동을 정확히 해석할 난류모델 개발에 관한 연구 (3) 복잡한 난류유동에서 열전 달모델에 관한 연구 (4) 레이놀즈응력모델에 관한 연구 (5) Large Eddy Simulation에 관한 연구를 들 수 있다. 이들 연구에서는 난류모델의 물리적 의미에 관한 이론적 연구와 이 모델들 을 여러 경우의 실제유동에 적용하여 검증하는 연구가 병행되어야 할 것이다.

In the microfluidic devices the most important thing is mixing efficiency ol various fluids. In this study a newly designed miler is proposed to enhance the mixing effect with the purpose to apply it to microchannel mixing in a short future. This design is composed of a channel with cross baffles periodically arranged on the both bottom and top surfaces ol the channel. To obtain the yow patterns, the numerical computation was performed by using a commercial code, ANSYS CFX 10.0. To evaluate the mixing performance, we computed Lyapunov exponent and obtained Poincare sections. it was shown that our design provides the excellent mixing effect.

A numerical study of unsteady mixed convection in a cavity with high viscous fluid is presented. Finite volume method was employed for the discretization and PISO algorithm was used for calculating pressure term. The parameters governing the problem are the Rayleigh number ($10^3\;{\leq}\;Ra\;{\leq}\;10^5$), the Reynolds number (0 < Re $\leq$ 1), and the aspect ratio (0.5 $\leq$ AR $\leq$ 2). The fluid used is silicon oil, a high prandtl number fluid, Pr = 909.1. The results show velocity vectors and temperature distributions. It is found that the periodic flows in a cavity are observed at very low Reynolds numbers, and the period of periodic flow decreases with increasing Reynolds and Rayleigh numbers, and increases with increasing aspect ratio. Also, the Reynolds number range of periodic flow increases with increasing Rayleigh numbers and aspect ratio.

A two-dimensional Navier-Stokes solver using hybrid meshes is parallelized with a domain decompostion method. The focus of this paper is placed on minimizing the amount of effort in parallelizing the serial version of the solver, and this is achieved by adding an additional layer of cells to each decomposed domain. Most subroutines of the serial solver are used without modification, and the information exchange between neighboring domains is achieved using MPI(Message Passing Interface) library. Load balancing among the processors and scheduling of the message passing are implemented to reduce the overhead of parallelization, and the speed-up achieved by parallelization is measured on the transonic invisicd and turbulent flow problems. The parallelization efficiencies of the explicit Runge-Kutta scheme and the implicit point-SGS scheme are compared and the effects of various factors on the results are also studied.

In this paper, the problem of transonic aerodynamic characteristics of a NACA0012 airfoil is numerically investigated in the inviscid gas-droplet two-phase flow with the compressible two-fluid model. In the present study, the airfoil flight in the cloud is simulated by taking account of the viscous drag of the droplets, the heat transfer, the phase change, and the droplet fragmentation The two-fluid equation system is solved by the fractional-step method and the WAF-HIL scheme. The effects of size and volume fraction of the droplets on the flow characteristics of the airfoil in the cloud are elaborated and discussed.

In this paper, numerical simulation of cavitation flow for modified NACA66 hydrofoil was made by using the multi-phase RANS equation based on pseudo-compressibility. The Homogeneous mixture model comprised of the mixture continuity, mixture momentum and liquid volume fraction equations was utilized. A vertex-centered finite-volume method was used in conjunction 2nd-order Roe's FDS to discretize the inviscid fluxes. The viscous fluxes were computed based on central differencing The Spalart-Allmaras one equation model was employed for the closure of turbulence. Reasonable agreements were obtained between the calculation results and the experiment for pressure coefficients on the hydrofoil surface.
