A numerical procedure for analyzing the heat transfer in a regenerative cooling passage of liquid rocket has been developed. The thermal analysis is based on the numerical model of Naraghi〔1〕. The thermodynamic and transport properties of the combustion gases are evaluated using the chemical equilibrium composition. The pressure and heat flux obtained by the isentropic relation are in good agreement with the result of Navier-Stokes equations. The effect of design parameters on heat transfer is addressed for the pressure loss and temperature variation. Also, their constraints in designing the cooling passage are recommended. Finally, in a heated rectangular duct, the effects of secondary flow on heat transfer are scrutinized by the nonlinear k- e -fu of Park et at.〔2〕.

In engineering application of large eddy simulation, there are still questions as follows grid dependency on numerical results, the effect of upwind scheme against a calculation instability, appropriate boundary conditions dealing with turbulence fluctuation and the performance of SGS models. In this study, in order to develop the LES to the engineering application, large eddy simulation was carried out to investigate the effect of upwind scheme, turbulent subgrid model and the grid dependancy of the flow around a wall-mounted cube in a channel at Re=40,000 based on cubic height and bulk mean velocity. The computed velocities, turbulence quantities, separation and reattachment length were evaluated compared with the experimental results of R. Matinuzzi and C. Tropea.

The characteristics of unsteady heat transfer and boundary layer flow in the SSME turbine rotor passage are investigated with LRN $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model. The unsteady flow and heat transfer in a rotor blade passage as a result of wake/blade interaction is modeled by the inviscid/boundary-layer flow approach. The relevant governing equations are discretized to a system of finite different equations by means of a BTBCS implicit method. These equations have been solved numerically, for the velocity and temperature fields using TDMA method. Heat flux on the blade surface and flow parameters in the rotor passage are calculated with wake interaction. Numerical results show that velocity, pressure, turbulent kinetic energy and heat flux on the blade surface are varied periodically by wake passing.

The intermittent characteristics of fluid particle accelerations near the wall are investigated with the higher-order statistics and the probability density functions (PDF) by using a direct numerical simulation of turbulent channel flow. Also, the behaviors of acceleration associated with the coherent structures are discussed. The flatness factor of wall-normal acceleration is extremely high near the wall and it exceeds the previously reported value obtained in isotropic turbulence. The presence of the wall seems to make the accelerations more intermittent and the associated mechanism is explained with the PDFs. The skewness factor of wall-normal acceleration indicates that accelerations are associated with the streamwise vortices.

Maximum drag reduction (MDR) in turbulent channel flow by polymer additives is studied by direct numerical simulation. An Oldroyd-B model is adopted to express the polymer stress because it is believed that MDR is closely related to the elasticity of the polymeric liquids. The Reynolds number based on the bulk velocity and the channel height is 40000. MDR in the present study is $44{\%}$ and this is in a good agreement with the Virk's asymptote. Turbulence statistics are also in good agreements with the experimental observation. In the 'large drag reduction', the decrease of turbulent kinetic energy is compensated by the increase of energy transfer from the polymer to the flow. Therefore, MDR is a dynamic equilibrium state of the energy transfer between the polymer and the flow.

Hot press forming can produce high-strength components by rapidly cooling between closed punch and die after hot forming using quenchable boron steel austenized in a furnace. In the hot press forming process, the cooling rate is influenced by the size, position and arrangement of the cooling channel and the file condition of cooling water in the die. Also, mechanical properties of the final components and operation time are related to cooling rate. Therefore, the design of optimized cooling channel is one of the most important works. In this paper, the effect of position and size of the cooling channel on the cooling rate was investigated by using design of experiment and FE analysis in hot press bending process. Therefore the optimum cooling channel ratio was presented in the HPB.

The flow pulsation of two parallel channels is investigated using RANS and URANS approaches. The parallel channels are connected with a small gap and have different cross section areas. The ratio of a right side area and a left side area ($A_R$ / $A_L$) is 0.5. Computations are conducted using a CFX code. Turbulence models adopted for RANS are Reynolds stress model and Shear Stress Transport (SST) model. The bulk Reynolds number is 60,000. Predicted results are compared with the experimental result of Lee et al. and show the flow pulsation with the frequency of about 100 Hz at the center of the gap.

The friction drag reduction of a ship is of prime importance for the design and production of high-valued/high-tech ship. Thus, this study carried out the development of reliable numerical tools to identify the friction drag reduction mechanism for turbulent boundary layer on the ship surface and to deduce the optimum reduction technique by numerical experiment. The developed LES and DNS numerical tools were applied to simulate the turbulent channel flow These results were very well matched with previous results not only qualitatively but also quantitatively. The parallelization using MPI (Message Passing Interface) technique implemented in the developed code to speed up the simulation and to obtain the accurate results from the fine grid system was testified its computational efficiency.
