일반적으로 건축물의 설계시 풍동 실험을 통한 풍환경의 평가를 수행하고 있으며, 이는 환경 영향 평가법에서 정한 건축 사업 시행 시 수반되어야 할 자연환경, 생활환경 그리고 사회경제환경의 영향 평가의 일환으로 실시되고 있다. 그러나, 풍동 실험의 경우 여러 가지 현실적 제약조건으로 설계와 실험의 피드백 (Feedback)이 원활하지 못하며, 특히 대상 건축물이 공장과 같이 대기 오염원이 되는 경우 실험은 더욱 어려운 형편이다. 이에 대한 보완책으로 전산 유체 역학을 이용한 건축물의 풍압 해석에 의한 풍하중 추정이나 인접 지형-지물의 영향을 고려한 건축물 주위의 풍환경 평가가 있다. 전산 모사에 의해 풍동 실험의 미비점을 보완하고, 보다 상세한 정보를 확보함으로써 건축물의 구조적 안전성의 증대와 환경 피해 감소를 기할 수 있다. 그러나 복잡한 지형-지물이나 건축물 주위의 풍환경에 대한 전산 모사는 주로 두 가지의 기술적 어려움을 수반하게 되다. 그 중 하나는 고정 경계면을 이루는 형상의 복잡성으로 인해 기존에 많이 이용하고 있는 Body-fitted 격자계를 이용하는 경우, 격자 생성 과정이 매우 복잡하고 어려울 뿐 만 아니라 생성된 격자가 주로 비정렬 (unstructured) 특성을 갖게 되어 수치해석 과정의 효율을 저하시키는 요인이 되며, 격자의 형상도 수치해석의 수렴성을 저하시키는 예가 많다. 다른 어려움으로 풍환경은 전형적인 난류 유동장으로서 난류의 전산 해석은 아직도 해결하지 못한 부분이 많다는 점이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 복잡한 지형-지물이나 건축물의 풍하중과 풍환경의 전산 모사 기술 확보를 위하여 수행중인 연구의 일환으로 물체 형상의 기하학적 복잡성의 극복을 위한 가상경계법 (Immersed Boundary Method)과 난류 유동장의 물리적 엄밀성을 높이기 위한 다와동 모사 (Large Eddy Simulation)을 이용한 물체 형상과 무관한 유동장 해석 기술 개발에 대하여 다루고자 한다. 먼저 최근에 유동 해석에 이용되는 방법인 가상경계법(IBM)은 물체를 포함한 전체 전산 영역을 직교 좌표계에 의해 이산화하고, 유동장내 존재하는 물체의 표면에서의 점착 조건을 만족시키기 위하여 지배 방정식에 적절한 외력을 추가로 고려하는 방법이다. 본 연구에서는 가상경계법을 이용하여 경계층에 위치한 건물 형상의 각진 물체 주위 사이에 형성되는 공동 내부의 비정상 유속 및 압력에 대한 전산 해석을 수행하고, 풍상측 전면에 형성되는 경계층에 의한 영향을 분석하였다.

Heat exchanger tube array in a heat recovery steam generator is exposed to the hot exhaust gas flow and it could cause the flow induced vibration, which could damage the heat exchanger tube array. It is needed for the structural safe operation of the heat exchanger to establish the characteristics of flow induced vibration in the tube array. The researches for the flow induced vibration of typical heat exchangers have been conducted and the nondimensional PSD(Power Spectral Density) function with the Strouhal number, fD/U, had been derived by experimental method. The present study examined the results of the previous experimental researches for the nondimensional PSD characteristics by CFD analysis and the basis for the application of flow induced vibration to the heat recovery steam generator tube array would be prepared from the present CFD analysis. For the previous mentioned purpose, the present CFD analysis introduced a single circular cylinder and calculated with the unsteady laminar flow over the cylinder. The characteristics of vortex shedding and lift fluctuation over the cylinder was investigated. The derived nondimensional PSD was compared with the results of the previous experimental researches and the characteristics of lift PSD over a single circular cylinder was established from the present CFD study.

The effectiveness of passive control techniques for reducing the pressure oscillation generated in a supersonic cavity flow was investigated numerically and experimentally, respectively. The control device includes a sub-cavity installed in the upstream edge of a rectangular cavity. Time-dependent supersonic cavity flow characteristics with turbulent features were examined by using the three-dimensional, mass-averaged Navier-Stokes computation based on a finite volume scheme and large eddy simulation. The results show that the pressure oscillation near the trailing edge dominates overall time-dependent cavity pressure variations. Such an oscillation can be attenuated more significantly in the presence of the sub-cavity compared with the cavity without sub-cavity, and a larger sub-cavity leads to better control performance.

In this study, the visualization of the unsteady flow field of a Weis-Fogh-type water turbine was investigated using particle-image velocimetry. The visualization experiments were performed in a parameter range that provided relatively high-efficiency wing conditions, that is, at a wing opening angle ${\alpha}=40^{\circ}$ and at a velocity ratio of the uniform flow to the moving wing U/V = 1.5~2.5. The flow fields at the opening, translational, and closing stages were investigated for each experimental parameter. In the opening stage, the fluid was drawn in between the wing and wall at a velocity that increased with an increase in the opening angle and velocity ratio. In the translational stage, the fluid on the pressure face of the wing moved in the direction of the wing motion, and the boundary layer at the back face of the wing was the thinnest and had a velocity ratio of 2.0. In the closing stage, the fluid between the wing and wall was jetted at a velocity that increased as the opening angle decreased; however, the velocity was independent of the velocity ratio.

Double-diffusive convection induced by simultaneously-imposed lateral temperature and concentration gradients in a rectangular enclosure with aspect retio, 2.0 has been studied experimentally for adiabatic and isothermal horizontal boundary conditions. Visual observations show two distinct flow structures depending on the buoyancy ratio. The unicell flow structure is observed for a lower buoyancy ratio while the layered flow structure appears for a higher buoyancy ratio. There exists an unstable flow regime between two buoyancy ratios.

Unsteady 3D flowfields generated by transverse fuel injection into a supersonic mainstream are simulated with a DES turbulence model. Comparisons are made with experimental results in term of the temporal eddy position and eddy formation frequency. Results indicate that the DES model correctly predicts the convection characteristics of the large scale eddies. However, it is also observed that the numerical results slightly overpredict the eddy formation frequency.

A two-dimensional shallow-water flow around a cavity driven by a sinusoidally oscillating external flow was studied numerically. A container model of "T" shape was constructed in the numerical computation for comparison with the experimental observation. The numerical computation shows that the aspect ratio of the cavity is not much affecting the overall flow pattern, and for the aspect ratio 2, the deep region of the cavity has a stagnant flow motion. At larger Reynolds number, the flow field is characterized by many small vortices which are not present in the flow visualization. The flow pattern in the external region is in good agreement with the experimentally recorded particle trajectories. It turns out that two large coherent vortices situated in the exterior region of the cavity are responsible for clockwise and counterclockwise drift motions, in large scale, of particles.particles.

The experimental study on the ducted fan for the propulsion system of a small UAV has been performed. In this paper, to investigate the three-dimensional unsteady flow field characteristics of the ducted fan, it was measured by using a $45^{\circ}$ inclined hot-wire from hub to tip at inlet, behind the rotor and outlet of the ducted fan. The hot-wire signal data was acquired at fixed yaw angle. The data was averaged by using the PLEAT (Phase Locked Ensemble Averaging Technique), and then three of non-linear equations were solved simultaneously by using the Newton-Rhapson numerical method. Flow characteristics such as tip vortex, secondary flow and tip leakage flow were confirmed through axial, radial and tangential contour plot.

The thermo-flow field in road tunnel is influenced by some facts such as piston effect of vehicle's move, operation of ventilation facilities, natural wind and buoyancy effect of fire plume. Among those, piston effect is one of primary causes for formation of air flow in road tunnel and has an effect on initial direction of smoke flow in tunnel fire. In this study to analyze the unsteady flow in the tunnel caused by the run of vehicle, the experimental study of vehicle-induced unsteady flow on a reduced-scale model tunnel is presented. While the three types of vehicle shape such as basic type of rectangular shape, diamond-head type and stair-tail type are changed, the pressure and air velocity variations with time are measured. The rising ratio of pressure and velocity are in order of "basic type of rectangular shape > stair-tail type > diamond-head type". The experimental results would be good data for development of a numerical method on the vehicle-induced unsteady tunnel flow.
