본 연구에서는 격자 생성, 초기유동조건 및 경계조건 설정 등 일련의 전처리 과정을 사용자에게 친숙한 그래픽 인터페이스 환경으로 개발하였다. MFC/Visual C++를 이용하여 개발된 전처리 프로그램은 Windows 계열의 OS와 호환이 가능하며, 기하학적 격자생성, 초기값 설정 및 수치해석 코드의 제어변수를 생성할 수 있다. 한편 사용자의 편의를 위해서 전처리 과정을 격자생성(단일격자생성, 다중격자생성), 유체 물성치정의, 경계조건 생성, 초기조건 생성 및 코드제어로 구분하였다. 개발된 전처리 프로그램의 특성으로서 다중 격자 생성 작업을 단일 격자계의 중첩으로 구성될 수 있도록 각 경계면을 "interface"형을 취하는 기능을 제공하도록 하였으며 개발된 전처리 과정을 16도의 경사면을 가지는 Compression ramp 문제 및 축대칭 Bump 문제에 적용하여 개발된 전처리 과정을 검증하였다.

This research presents an efficient method based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) for estimating the resistance performance of a ship with a large settlement amount and a dynamic trim. The settlement of the inviscid flow analysis and the results of dynamic trim were used to set a large attitude for the ship prior to performing a viscous flow analysis; a viscous flow analysis was subsequently performed by Dynamic Fluid Body Interaction (DFBI). This method is termed as method I, in which a simple grating system can be used without employing the overset mesh technique by setting many attitudes before interpretation. Thus, method I is advantageous in reducing calculation time and improving calculation accuracy. The viscous flow analysis was performed using a commercial CFD code STAR-CCM+. Compared with the final convergence result, the first viscous flow analysis result of method I exhibited a variation of less than 1 % of resistance. The result was obtained by changing the gratings each time an attitude is changed at each calculation stage, based on the DFBI method provided to STAR-CCM+ using a simple grating system, which is not a superposed grating. This method is termed as method II. Compared with method II of resistance, method I exhibited a dif erence of 0.03-0.6 % for linear velocity. The results of method I were confirmed to be qualitatively and quantitatively appropriate through comparison with several trillion simulations.

This paper introduces a computational method for analysis of the 6-DOF motions of a ship in waves using an overset grid technique which consists of inner and outer domains for representing body motions and numerical wave tank, respectively. High order interpolation scheme is employed to increase numerical accuracy over the interface where physical values, such as velocities and pressure, interact between the inner and outer domains. The numerical schemes and algorithm are addressed in the present paper. An application to motion of KCS container carrier in head waves is presented, and the comparison of responses on heave and pitch motions shows good agreement with those of model tests.

In this study, aerodynamic drag of a bearingless rotor hub was predicted by computational fluid dynamics methodology using unstructured overset mixed meshes. The calculated results showed that the drag due to pressure forces rather than the viscous drag act as a major factor on both the fuselage and rotor hub, and the drag acting on the torque tube accounted for the largest portion in the hub drag. It was also found the hub drag accounted for 39 ~ 41% of the fuselage drag. Finally, the result confirmed the drag of the designed rotor hub satisfied the requirement of the aerodynamic hub drag by comparing with the drag trend of developed helicopter.

The present paper presents the CFD result for a beam wave test case. An ONR tumblehome ship model with bilge keels is used. The beam wave test is for zero forward speed and roll and heave 2DOF with wave slope $a_k=0.156$ and wavelength ${\lambda}=1.12L_{PP}$, with $L_{PP}$ the ship length. The problems is solved numerically with an unsteady Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes approach. The free surface flow is computed using a single-phase level-set method and the motions in each time step are integrated using a predictor-corrector iteration approach which uses dynamic overset grids moving with relative ship motion. The predicted CFD results for motions and forces are compared with experimental data, showing a reasonable agreement.

Recent CFD solvers in engineering have to treat geometrically complex domains and moving body problems. In ship hydrodynamics, flow around the stern and ship motions in waves are examples of such cases mentioned before. The unstructured grid scheme is successfully applied for these problems, but it has weakness of inefficient memory usage and intensive computational time as compared to the structured grid method. Overset grid scheme is one of the alternatives for structured grid system taking advantage of fast and memory efficiency. Overset grid scheme is especially useful for moving body problem because there is no need to re-mesh around the body. In this paper, we adopted the Suggar++, the grid connectivity and interpolation utility for the overlapping grid, to WAVIS which is the in-house flow solver of KRISO. Then we introduced some applications using the overset grid method for flow analysis around the ships. The computed results show that WAVIS with Suggar++ is practically feasible and has an advantages for moving geometry cases.

Parallel implementation and performance assessment of the grid assembly in a structured chimera grid approach is studied. The grid assembly process, involving hole cutting and searching donor, is parallelized on the PC cluster. A message passing programming model based on the MPI library is implemented using the single program multiple data(SPMD) paradigm. The coarse-grained communication is optimized with the minimized memory allocation because that the parallel grid assembly can access the decomposed geometry data in other processors by only message passing in the distributed memory system such as a PC cluster. The grid assembly workload is based on the static load balancing tied to flow solver. A goal of this work is a development of parallelized grid assembly that is suited for handling multiple moving body problems with large grid size.

In this paper, viscous flow calculation of pump-jet that is used as underwater propulsor was made by using RANS equation. For the validation, calculation for DTRC4119 marine propeller was made and reasonable agreements were obtained between the present results and the experiment. An unstructured overset mesh technique is used for analysis of relative motion between rotor and stator in pump-jet propulsor. Results for pump-jet propulsor were compared with computational results of another researcher.

In this paper, diagonal implicit harmonic balance method with overset grid technique is applied to analyze helicopter rotor blade flow in hover and forward flight condition. The chimera grid need interpolation time with sub-grid and background grid in moving problem such as forward flight on every time step. Present method is available enough to reduce the grid module interpolation time. In order to demonstrate present method, Caradonna & Tung's and AH-1G rotor blades are used and the results are compared to other researchers' result and experimental data.

The numerical procedure has been developed for simulating incompressible viscous flow around a turbine stage with rotor-stator interaction. This study solves 2-D unsteady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations on a non-orthogonal curvilinear coordinate system. The Marker-and-Cell concept is applied to efficiently solve continuity equation. To impose an accurate boundary condition, O-H multiblocked grid system is generated. O-type grid and H-type grid is generated near and outer rotor-stator The cubic-spline interpolation is applied to handle a relative motion of a rotor to the stator. Turbulent flows have been modeled by the Baldwin- Lomax turbulent model. To validate present procedure, the time averaged pressure coefficients around the rotor and stator are compared with experiment and a good agreement obtained.
