Direct numerical and large eddy simulations of transitional flows around studs installed on flat plate and bulbous bow have been performed to investigate an effectiveness of turbulence stimulators on laminar-to-turbulence transition at a very low speed. The flow velocity was determined to be 0.366m/s corresponding to 4 knots of full-scale ship speed when the objective ship was Kriso container ship. The spatial evolution of skin friction coefficient disclosed that a fully development of turbulence was observed behind the second stud installed on flat plate while a rapid transition from laminar to turbulence gave rise to the fully development of turbulence behind the first stud installed on bulbous bow. A comparison of streamwise mean velocity profiles showed that the viscous sublayer and log-layer were in good agreement with previous results although the friction velocity of Smagrosinsky sub-grid scale model was about 10% larger than that of direct numerical simulation. While the turbulence intensities of bulbous bow was similar to those of flat plate in inner region, larger intensities of turbulence were observed in outer region of bulbous bow than those of flat plate.

The effect of tip clearance height on the three-dimensional flow and aerodynamic loss in the wake region of a high-turning turbine rotor cascade has been investigated with a miniature cone-type five-hole probe. Distributions of velocity magnitude, secondary velocity vectors, and total-pressure loss coefficient are presented for three tip gap-to-span ratios of h/s = 0.0, 0.5 and 1.0 percent. The result shows that with the increment of h/s, tip leakage vortex tends to be intensified and aerodynamic loss due to the leakage vortex is increased as well. In the case of h/s = 1.0 percent, aerodynamic loss in the tip-leakage flow region is found dominant in comparison with that in the passage vortex region. With increasing h/s, mass-averaged secondary loss coefficient has a greater portion in the mass-averaged total-pressure loss coefficient.

In this study, the numerical analysis of propellant supply manifold of a sub-scale model combustor with the same combustion and acoustic resonance conditions as the real combustor was carried out. The analysis of the results is based on the shape of the manifold and the number and type of inflow channels. The manifold form of the main propellant was rounded so that the recirculation area was small and easy to manufacture. The liquid oxygen mainfold included a distributor to uniformly supply the flow, and since the kerosene manifold was directly in contact with the flame side, the inflow channel was formed at a radial $360^{\circ}$ so as to minimize the recirculation region. The liquid nitrogen manifold was configured as a radial inflow channel to reduce the velocity difference near the injector.

In this study, 3-dimensional URANS simulation was performed to analyze the effect of the nozzle-rotor axial gap spacing of a supersonic impulse turbine on turbine performance. The computations were conducted for four different axial gap cases corresponding to about 6%, 10%, 20% and 30% of the blade height, respectively. The results show a good agreement with previous studies and the turbine efficiency decreases drastically in certain range. It is examined that the turbine performance characteristics could change depending on the influence of leading edge shock to the nozzle outlet. It is also found that the entropy rise distributions along the span differ from each other.

This paper presents the results of fluidelastic instability analysis performed for the U-tube bundle of a Westinghouse model 51 steam generator, one of the recirculating types designed at an early stage, in which the principal region of external cross-flow is associated with the U-bend portion of tube. The prerequisites for this analysis are detailed informations of the secondary side flow conditions in the steam generator and the free vibration behaviours of the U-tubes. In this study, the three-dimensional two-phase flow field in the steam generator has been calculated employing the ATHOS3 steam generator two-phase flow code and the ANSYS engineering analysis code has been used to calculate the free vibration responses of specific U tubes under consideration. The assessment of the potential instability for the suspect U-tubes, which is the final analysis process of the present work, has been accomplished by combining the secondary side velocity and density distributions obtained from the ATHOS3 prediction with the relative modal displacement and natural frequency data calculated using the ANSYS code. The damping of tubes in two-phase flow has been deduced from the existing experimental data by taking into account the secondary side void fraction effect. In operation of the steam generator, the tube support conditions at the tube-to-tube support plate intersections due to either tube denting degradation or deposition of tube support plate corrosion products or ingression of dregs. Thus, various hypothetical cases regarding the tube support conditions at the tube-to-tube support plate intersections have been considered to investigate the clamped support effects on the forced vibration response of the tube. Also, the effect of anti-vibration bars support in the curved portion of tube has been examined.

The anisotropy caused by the fiber orientation, which is inevitably generated by the flow during injection molding of short fiber reinforced polymers, greatly influences dimensional accuracy, mechanical properties, and other quality of the final product. Since the filling stage of the injection molding process plays a vital role in determining fiber orientation, an accurate analysis of flow field for the filling stage is needed. Unbalanced filling occurs when a complex or a multi-cavity mold is used leading to development of regions where the fiber suspension is under compression. It is impossible to make an accurate calculation of the flow field during filling with the analysis assuming incompressible fluid. A mold with four cavities with different filling times was produced to compare the numerical analysis results with the experimental data. There was a good agreement between the experimental and theoretical results when the compressibility of the polymer melt was considered for the numerical simulation. The fiber orientation states for compressible and incompressible fluids were also compared qualitatively as well as quantitatively in this study.

We analyze the jamming/deception performance of an active decoy against ground tracking radars on dynamic combat scenarios. Based on the movement and the interference flow of an airborne platform, the trajectories of the active decoy is accurately calculated by solving 6-degree of freedom equations of motion. On realistic combat scenarios, numerical simulations are examined to analyze the jamming performance of the decoy for various movements of the platform and RF specifications of the active decoy. Effective jamming/deception area against the ground tracking radars is estimated from the simulation.

메탄은 변환을 통해 아세틸렌 및 수소와 같은 에너지 생산에 보다 유용한 기체를 얻을 수 있다. 메탄의 열분해 온도는 약 1,200 K로 알려져 있으며, 그 이상의 고온 환경 및 첨가물을 제공한 경우 효과적인 변환을 기대할 수 있다. 이러한 고온 환경 및 화학반응을 제공할 수 있는 시스템으로 열플라즈마 반응로가 있다. 일반적인 열플라즈마는 아크 방전이나 고주파 유도결합 방전으로 플라즈마 발생기에서 발생시킨 이온화된 열유체로 10,000 K 이상의 초고온과 최대 수천 m/s의 특성을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 효율적인 메탄 변환을 위한 저전력 아크 플라즈마 발생기 및 반응로 내부의 온도 및 속도장을 전산모사하여 열유동 특성을 분석하였다. 아크 플라즈마 토치 영역의 전산해석은 전자기적 현상과 고온 열유동의 유체역학적 현상이 함께 작용하므로 기존에 사용되고 있는 전산유체 역학적인 방법론에 전자기적 현상에 대한 보존 방정식이 결합된 자기유체역학(Magnetohydrodynamic, MHD)방법을 이용하였고, 반응기 내부의 복잡한 열유동은 안정적인 계산이 가능한 상용 전산 유체역학(Computational Fluids Dynamics, CFD) 코드를 MHD 코드를 이용한 전산해석 결과 및 고온 물성치와 결합하여 해석하였다. 전산해석에 사용된 운전 변수로는 방전기체인 아르곤과 수소의 전체 유량을 45 L/min 으로 고정하고 수소의 비율을 0%, 6%, 12.5%, 20%로 하였으며, 각 유량 조건에서 입력 전력을 0.7 ~ 2.5 KW로 변화시켜 전체 15종의 운전조건에 따른 전산해석을 수행하여 각각의 운전변수에 따라 입력전력 기준 오차 1 ~ 28%에 해당하는 결과를 도출하였다. 본 연구를 통해 개발된 전산해석 방법을 이용하여 다양한 조건에서 아크 플라즈마 반응로 내부의 온도 및 속도장에 대한 전산해석 결과를 제시하였고, 효율적인 메탄 변환 공정을 개발하기 위한 아크 플라즈마 반응로의 설계조건 및 운전 조건을 제시할 수 있는 기반을 확보하였다.

미국 QED Technologies(이하 QED)가 세계 최초로 상용화한 자기유동유체연마장치(이하 MRF$^{(R)}$-Magnetorheological (Fluid) Finishing)는 역시 QED가 개발한 간섭계 응용장비인 SSI$^{(R)}$(Subaperture stitching interferometer)와 같이 운용하면 1um 이하의 나노광학산업에서 ${\lambda}/10$ 또는 ${\lambda}/100$ 이상 더 정밀한 영역을 손 쉽게 제조할 수 있는 획기적인 공정을 가능하게 한다. 이러한 능력 때문에 미국, 유럽 및 일본 등의 첨단광학회사들은 96년 상업화된 이후 MRF$^{(R)}$와 SSI$^{(R)}$ 공정을 앞다투어 도입하며 기존공정이 지니고 있던 많은 한계들을 극복했다. 우리나라의 MRF와 SSI의 도입은 선진국에 비해 10년 이상 늦어진 2008년에 이르러서야 최초의 장비가 도입되었으며 이후 꾸준히 그 응용분야가 확장되어 가고 있다. 2012년에는 한국천문연구원과 그린광학에 SSI의 최신장비인 ASI(Aspheric Stitching Interferometer)와 MRF가 각각 도입됐다. 이를 계기로 해서 한국사무소에서 제안을 하여 QED사의 총괄대표이사인 Dr. Andrew Kulawiec, 응용기술부장인 Paul Dumas, QED 한국사무소의 오한석 박사와 신지식 박사가 그간의 기술동향을 발표하는 기술강연회가 지난 2012년 10월 23일 개최되었다. 한국천문연구원, 그린광학과 한국광학기기산업협회의 후원으로 한국천문연구원 은하수홀에서 개최된 이번 강연회에서는 다음과 같은 세가지 주제를 다루었다. 1. MRF의 원리 및 응용분야의 현황과 장비개발 현황 2. SSI의 원리 및 응용분야의 현황과 장비개발 현황 3. 광학설계와 가공실현성에 도움이 되는 비구면을 표현하는 새로운 식 Q-Polynominal 이번 강연회는 특히 QED의 공정 및 장비개발자들이 직접 참가한 기술강연회로 지난 2004년 및 2008년에 열린 기술강연회와 차별화되며, 25개 업체 약 50여 명이 참석하여 성황리에 마무리되었다. 향후 국내의 사용자 그룹에 대한 세미나를 정기적으로 개최해 QED의 첨단광학기술에 대한 정보교환의 장을 확대할 예정이며, 기술강연회도 가능한 한 정기화할 예정이다. 이번 강연회의 주제 중 우선 MRF와 SSI에 대한 논의를 광학세계 1월호에 소개하고자 한다.

We have measured the spectral transmittances of UV blocking soft contact lenses, regular soft contact lenses and regular RGP lenses using the method suggested in ANSI Z80.20 standard. In order to evaluate visible light transmitting and UV blocking characteristics, we have calculated transmittances by integrating over the specific spectral ranges, i.e., visible light, UVA, UVB and UVC. We found that mean transmittances of visible light for all three categories were over 90.0 % which could be considered as within acceptable range for a contact lens. The transmittance of the UVA and UVB radiation for the UV blocking soft lenses except some cases was within UVR (Ultraviolet radiation) transmittance standard. The UV blocking ability of regular soft and RGP lenses was poor as rather expected. These results will be expected to assist clinical opticians and practitioners in utilizing the transmittance characteristics about the contact lens.
