저속의 압축성 유동장에서의 원형 실린더 주위의 유동 및 열전달특성을 해석하였다. 비압축성 유동장에서의 실린더 주위의 유동 및 열전달현상에 대하여는 실험과 수치해석을 포함한 광범위한 연구가 진행되어 왔으며 매우 잘 알려져 있다. 실린더 벽면과 주위 유동장의 온도차가 큰 경우, 밀도의 변화가 커지므로 유동장은 압축성 유체가 되나 지배 방정식의 복잡함과 적절한 수치해석 방법의 부족으로 실린더 주위의 유동장을 압축성유체로 해석한 경우는 매우 드물다. 현재 압축성유동 해석에 널리 사용되는 time marching algorithm은 저속의 유동장 해석시 지배방정식에 나타나는 eigenvalue들의 괴리에 의하여 수렴속도가 현저히 떨어지게 된다. 본 연구에서는 이와 같은 난점을 극복할 수 있는 time-derivative preconditioning 방법을 사용하여 온도차가 큰 유동장에서의 강제 및 혼합대류에 대한 계산을 수행하였고 이들의 열전달특성을 비교하였다. 강제대류의 경우 실린더 벽면 온도의 증가에 따른 밀도 감소의 영향은 유동장의 Re수를 감소시켜 확산의 영향을 증가시키면서, 혼합대류의 경우 부력의 영향은 가열되는 유동장의 범위와 재순환 영역을 강제대류에 비해 현저히 감소시킨다.

Low-speed gas flows around a micro-scale flat plate are investigated using a kinetic theory analysis. The Boltzmann equation simplified by a collision model is solved by means of a finite difference approximation with the Discrete Ordinate method. Calculations are made for flows around a 5% flat plate with a finite length of 20 microns. The results are compared with those from the Information Preservation method and a continuum approach with slip boundary conditions. It is shown that three different approaches predict a similar basic flow patterns, while the results from the present method are more accurate than those from the other two methods in details.

It is well known that preconditioning methods are efficient for convergence acceleration in the compressible low Mach number flows. In this study, the original Euler equations and three differently nondimensionalized preconditioning methods are implemented in two dimensional inviscid bump flows using the 3rd order MUSCL and DADI schemes as numerical flux discretization and time integration, respectively. The multigrid and local time stepping methods are also used to accelerate the convergence. The test case indicates that a properly modified local preconditioning technique involving concepts of a global preconditioning allows Mach number independent convergence. Besides, an asymptotic analysis for properties of preconditioning methods is added.

The objective of this study is to apply preconditioning to Wavier-Stokes equations with a turbulence model. The concept of a pseudo sonic speed was adopted. Roe's FDS was used for spatial discretization, LU-SGS scheme was used for time integration. In order to test the algorithms, the low speed flows around NACA airfoils and the flows through supersonic nozzle were calculated. The algorithm developed in the present study shows good performance in the calculations of low speed viscous flows and supersonics flows.

Low-speed gas flows in micro-channels are investigated using a kinetic theory analysis. The Boltzmann equation simplified by a collision model is solved by means of a finite difference approximation with the discrete ordinate method. Calculations are made for flows in simple micro-channels and a micro-fluidic system consisting of two micro-channels in series. The results are compared well with those from the DSMC method and an analytical solutions to the Wavier-Stokes equations. It is shown that the present method is a useful tool for the modeling of low-speed flows in micro-channels.

A kinetic theory analysis is made of low-speed gas flows around a micro-plate. The Boltzmann equation simplified by a collision model is solved by means of a finite difference approximation with the discrete ordinate method. The method does not suffer from statistical noise which is common in particle based methods and requires much less amount of computational effort. Calculations are made for flows around a micro-scale flat plate with a finite length of 20 microns. The method is assessed by comparing the results with those from several different methods and available experimental data.

The flow characteristics around the stern region of two VLCCs with the same forebody and slightly different afterbody are investigated along with propulsive performance of the ship. The local mean flow measurements and the resistance and self-propulsion tests are carried out in the towing tank for the two VLCC hull forms. The measured results clearly show the formation of bilge vortices and their effect on propulsive efficiency. The comparisons are made for the two VLCC hull forms and the relation between stern framelines and bilge vortex strength is explored. Experimental data can provide a good test case to validate the accuracy of numerical methods and turbulence model of CFD codes for ship flow calculation.

A simple but efficient grid generation technique by using the modified compressible form of stream function has been formulated. Transformation of a physical plane to a streamline plane, the Von Mises Transformation, has been widely used to solve the differential equations governing flow phenomena, however, limitation arises in low velocity region of boundary layer, mixing layer and wake region where the relatively large grid spacing is inevitable. Modified Von Mises Transformation with simple mathematical adjustment for the stream function is suggested and applied to solve the confined coaxial turbulent jet mixing with simple $\kappa-\epsilon$ turbulence model. Comparison with several experimental data of axial mean velocity, turbulent kinetic energy, and Reynolds shear stress distribution shows quite good agreement in the mixing layer except in the centerline where the turbulent kinetic energy distributions were somewhat under estimated. This formulation is strongly suggested to be utilized specially for free turbulent mixing layers in axisymmetric flow conditions such as the investigation of mixing behavior, jet noise production and reduction for Turbofan engines.
