In the present paper, a new calculation algorithm far solving large scale environmental or geophysical flows with free surface is proposed where the non-hydrostatic pressure component is taken into consideration. Predictor-corrector fractional step approach with explicit, forward time marching scheme in the sigma coordinate system is employed. In order to validate the present calculation algorithm and to estimate the effects of non-hydrostatic pressure on resultant flow and free surface movements, example calculations are carried out for typical steady and unsteady flow problems. Present method can be applied to the meso-scale free surface flows with complex bottom topography where MAC-like 3-d hydrodynamic calculations are quite ineffective and uneconomic.

VOF 방법에 의한 자유표면 유동계산의 정확성을 개선하기 위해 이차정도 모델을 개발하였다. 개발된 이차원 모델의 정확성을 비교하기 위하여 여러 가지 크기의 원형 및 Solitary wave형상의 자유표면 유동을 통하여 기존에 개발된 두 가지의 일차정도 모델과 비교하였다. 비교결과 반경이 큰 원과 같이 곡률이 작은 형상의 경우에는 일차정도 모델도 비교적 정확한 결과를 보여주고 있으나 작은 반경의 원형이나 Solitary wave와 같이 곡률이 큰 형상의 경우 일차정도 모델은 많은 오차를 보여주는 반면에 이차정도 모델은 어느 경우에나 매우 정확한 결과를 보여준다.

수치격자의 크기제한에 의한 자유표면 유동해석 문제를 효율적으로 다루기 위하여 자유표면의 모든 격자를 x 방향으로 4,8,12개로 등분할 하고, y 방향으로는 4개로 잘라서 계산하였다. 이중격자 또는 삼중격자로 Navier-Stokes 방정식의 각항에 크기가 다른 격자를 사용해 효율을 향상시키는 계산방법의 연장으로, 본 논문에서는 자유표면 방정식에 보다 세분화된 격자를 적용해, Marker Particle 이동 및 자유수면 형성에 효율향상을 줄수 있는 수치방법을 도입하였다. 계산결과에 의하면 초기사용 격자가 coarse한 경우가 본방법의 효과가 커짐을 알 수 있고 대상물로는 층류유동에서 Wigley모형과 낭류유동의 S103 모형이다.

Two-dimensional nonlinear free-surface wave problems are analyzed with consideration of viscosity. Navier-Stokes equation and continuity equation are solved by the application of Finite Analytic Method, and MAC scheme is used far the treatment of free surface. Surface tension effect is also considered and laminar flow is assumed. The free-surface waves in shallow water, the flows around a vortex-pair with free surface and the wave ahead of a rectangular body are simulated to test the present numerical scheme. In the shallow water problem, viscous effect due to the friction on the bottom is observed. In the second problem, the approach of a vortex-pair to the free surface is simulated to examine the interaction of vortex-pair with the free surface. In the third problem, the wave ahead of a semi-infinite floating body is simulated.

Under the assumption of potential flow, free-surface flow around a hydrofoil is calculated by the high-order spectra1!boundary-integral method, This method is one of the most efficient numerical methods by which the nonlinear interactions between hydrofoil and free-surface can be simulated in time-domain. In this method. the wave potential which represents the nonlinear evolution of free-surface is solved by the high-order spectral method and the body potential which provides the effects of hydrofoil and shed vortex is solved by the boundary-integral method. The calculated free-surface profiles which are generated by a uniformly translating hydrofoil are compared with other experimental results. And they show relatively good agreements each other. As another example, free-surface flow generated by a heaving and translating hydrofoil is calculated and discussed.

A computationally efficient numerical method based on potential flow is developed for time-domain simulation of the nonlinear free-surface flows around a 2-dimensional hydrofoil. This numerical method, namely, spectral/boundary-element method, is a mixed one of the high-order spectral method and the boundary-element method in time-domain. The high-order spectral method is used to calculate the nonlinear evolution of free-surface, and the boundary-element method is used to calculate the effects of the hydrofoil and the shed vortex. As application examples, nonlinear free-surface flows around a 2-dimensional hydrofoil which starts from the rest and translates near the free-surface with or without harmonic oscillations are calculated. Nonlinear/unsteady results of free-surface waves and hydrodynamic farces are shown and discussed. Particularly, the results of steady-state which are obtained as a special case of the present unsteady solution are compared with others' calculated and experimental results, and good agreements are observed.

A nonlinear sloshing problem is numerically simulated. During excessive sloshing the sloshinginduced impact load can cause a critical damage on the tank structure. A three-dimensional free-surface flow in a tank is formulated in the scope of potential flow theory. The exact nonlinear free-surface condition is satisfied numerically. A finite-element method based on Hamiltons principle is employed as a numerical scheme. The problem is treated as an initial-value problem. The computations are made through an iterative method at each time step. The hydrodynamic loading on the pillar in the tank is computed.

In this paper, effects of free surface on viscous flow is investigated. Continuity equation coupled with Navier-Stokes equations are solved numerically by using an artificial compressibility method[1, 2]. The body-fitted generalized curvilinear coordinate system is employed to deal with arbitrary body shape. The IAF scheme with finite difference method is used to solve the equations, and a diagonal algorithm is applied to time-varying Jacobian matrices for the computational economics. Free surface shape is obtained by applying zero pressure condition to still water surface at each time step. A numerical test is made for larminar flow around a circular cylinder vertically piercing the free surface. Computed flow patterns are largely affected by the existance of free surface in low Reynolds number flows treated in this paper. Free surface causes viscous pressure drag to vary much in depth direction in accordance with the variations of flow pattern.

This paper presents calculated results of the free-surface flow around a Series 60($C_B=0.6$) model. Three-dimensional Navier-Sotkes equations are solved and Baldwin-Lomax algebraic turbulence model is adopted to simulate the high Reynolds-number flow. To reduce computational efforts, velocity components near the wall are extrapolated with a the solved by using the Implicit Approximate Factorization method[2]. The successive-over-relaxation method is used for solving pressure-Poisson equation when obtaining the pressure field projecting the divergence-free velocity field. To simulate the free-surface flows more precisely, the numerical scheme solving the equation for the kinematic boundary condition is very important. In this paper, there numerical schemes are employed and the results are compared with the available experimental data.

Two-dimensional Stokes flow due to the line source and line sink of same strength in semi-infinite flow region with free surface is analysed using complex variable theory and conformal mapping. Surface tension effects are included while gravity is neglected. From the results of analysis, flow pattern and free surface shape are obtained and velocity distribution on the free surface is determined with 2 independent parameters Ca (capillary number) and h (non-dimensionalized distance between source and sink). When the location of the sink is above the source, velocity on the free surface converges and a cusp occurs on the free surface for the value of Ca above some critical capillary number.
