버블젯 타입 마이크로 엑츄에이터의 설계변수에 따른 유동특성에 관한 수치해석적 연구를 수행하였다. 수치 모델은 저장소로 부터의 잉크 유동과 기포의 성장 및 소멸, 노즐을 통한 액적의 토출과 리필 과정을 포함한다. 기포의 거동은 전체 엑츄에이터의 성능에 중요한 영향을 미치는 요소이기 때문에, 본 연구에서는 open pool 해석을 통하여 기포의 성장과 소멸 및 소멸시의 캐비테이션 현상에 대해 살펴보았다. 또한 마이크로 엑츄에이터의 노즐 형상의 변화, 챔버와 리스트릭터의 기하학적 변화에 따른 액적의 토출과 잉크 리필과정에 대한 수치예측을 수행하였다. 설계변수의 변화에 따른 수치해석의 결과는 마이크로 엑츄에이터의 성능특성을 예측할 수 있으며 또한 마이크로 엑츄에이터의 최적설계에 유용하리라 판단된다.

복합추진장치가 포함된 경우와 포함되지 않은 경우의 축대칭 물체 주위 유동특성을 조사하기 위한 실험적 수치적 연구가 수행되었다. 축대칭 물체주위 유동특성 파악을 위해 선박해양공학연구센터의 캐비테이션 터널에서 표면압력분포와 LDV 장치를 이용한 주위유속분포 계측 시험이 우선적으로 이루어졌으며, 비압축성 RANS 방정식을 유한체적법으로 해석하는 수치적 방법이 표준 k-${\varepsilon}$ 난류모형을 이용하여 수행되었다. 선체와 프로펠러 상호작용은 양력면이론에 의하여 계산된 유기속도를 프로펠러 면에 분포하여 경계조건으로 처리하는 방법을 택하였다. 추진장치의 여러 가지 배열변화에 따른 실험적 결과를 기반으로 타당한 수치적 방법이 개발될 수 있다고 생각된다.

The flow characteristics around a horn-type rudder behind an operating propeller of a high-speed large container carrier are studied through a numerical method in fully wetted and cavitating flow conditions. The computations are carried out in a small scale ratio of 10.00(gap space=5mm) to consider the gap effects. The Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equation for a mixed fluid and vapor transport equation applying cavitation model are solved. The axisymmetry body-force distribution technique is utilized to simulate the flow behind an operating propeller. The gap flow, the three-dimensional flow separation, and the cavitation are the flow characteristics of a horn-type rudder. The pattern of three-dimensional flow separation is analyzed utilizing a topological rule. The various cavity positions predicted by CFD were shown to be very similar to rudder erosion positions in real ship rudder. The effect of a preventing cavitation device, a horizontal guide plate, is also investigated.

The injection nozzle of an electro-hydraulic injector is being opened and closed by movement of a injector's needle which is balanced by pressure at the nozzle seat and at the needle control chamber, at the opposite end of the needle. In this study, the effects of needle movement in a piezo-driven injector on unsteady cavitating flows behavior inside nozzle were investigated by cavitation numerical model based on the Eulerian-Lagrangian approach. Aimed at simulating the 3-D two-phase flow behavior, the three dimensional geometry model along the central cross-section regarding of one injection hole with real design data of a piezo-driven diesel injector has been used to simulate the cavitating flows for injection time by at fully transient simulation with cavitation model. The cavitation model incorporates many of the fundamental physical processes assumed to take place in cavitating flows. The simulations performed were both fully transient and 'pseudo' steady state, even if under steady state boundary conditions. As this research results, we found that it could analyze the effect the pressure drop to the sudden acceleration of fuel, which is due to the fastest response of needle, on the degree of cavitation existed in piezo-driven injector nozzle.

In recent practice a half round prismatic bar has fillet welded or formed through foundry work along the centerline on rear concave surface of the horn to mitigate gap flow between fixed and movable part of the rudder system. When the gap clearance has been blocked with this practice, numerical simulations indicate that the practices are not only effective in reducing the gap flow but also in mitigating the cavitation. The blocking effects are remarkably improved when a pair of blocking bar is bisymmetrically attached with respect to centerline on the opposite convex surface of the movable part. The blocking bar could be placed on the exposed surface under maximum rudder angle. This implies that the blocking bar could be easily adopted not only in a design stage but also in a maintenance stage for mitigating rudder cavitation. In addition, the numerical simulations imply that more improvements could be anticipated through the selection of section shape of prismatic bar for gap flow blocking.

The development of efficient systems for water quality improvement for water sources such as lakes, dams and reservoirs has become a necessity to provide not only a cleaner and safer water to the urban society, but also to provide a cleaner and safer environment for the aquatic organisms living in lakes, dams and reservoirs. This study concentrates on the outlet design and internal flow analysis of an axial flow pump used in a floating type water treatment system completely powered by renewable energy source. The treatment system is designed to raise water from depths of about 3~5m up to the water surface where it is naturally mixed with air as it is released back to the reservoir. The outlet of a typical axial flow pump is modified to suit the floating type water mixer. The performance of the axial flow pump is studied by investigating the internal flow of the system. Results show that the change in outlet shape does not alter the performance of the original pump at the maximum efficiency point as long as the cross sectional area of inlet is the same as the outlet. The axial pump for floating type water treatment system has good cavitation performance in the whole flow passage.

Cavitation on an axi-symmetric hemispherical head-form body was studied using an Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations solver based on a cell-centered finite volume method. To consider compressibility effects on the vapor phase and cavity interface, a pressure-based compressible flow CFD code was developed. To validate the developed CFD code, cavitating flow around the hemispherical head-form body was simulated using pressure-based incompressible and compressible CFD codes and validated against existing experimental data in the three-way comparison. The cavity shedding behavior, length of re-entrant jet, drag history, and Strouhal number of the hemispherical head-form body were compared between two CFD codes. The results, in this paper, suggested that the computations of cavitating flow with compressibility effects improve the description of cavity dynamics.

국내를 포함한 전 세계 50여개 원전의 발전사업자는 유동가속부식에 의한 탄소강 배관 감육을 관리하기 위하여 CHECWORKS 프로그램을 이용하고 있다. CHECWORKS 프로그램은 대구경 배관에만 적용 가능한 것으로 알려져 있기 때문에 소구경 배관에 대해서는 현장 배관감육 관리 담당자의 경험과 판단에 따라 배관을 관리하고 있다. 이에 따라 본 논문에서는 국내 원전 소구경 배관 4개 라인그룹에 대하여 CHECWORKS 프로그램과 FLUENT 코드를 이용하여 유동가속부식과 유동 특성을 분석하였다. 그 결과 현장 배관감육 관리 담당자의 기술력에 따라 CHEC- WORKS 프로그램도 소구경 배관 감육 관리에 이용할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

Flow control butterfly valve(FCBV) is known to have difficulty in controlling flow rate along valve opening due to its high flow rate. In low opening condition, the butterfly valve also has some shortcomings such as noise, vibration and erosion which are mostly caused by cavitation effects. Therefore, the FCBV requires proper remedies to reduce cavitation effects and to improve flow control performance. Numerical analysis is applied to FCBV flow to find effects of design factors such as seat diameter and valve opening rate. Cases with 3 different sizes of seat diameter and various valve opening rate are selected for the numerical analysis. From the analysis results, it is found that the FCBV with small seat diameter shows better pressure loss performance and reduced cavitation effects.

Lately, the cavitation and erosion phenomena in the rudder have been increased for high-speed container ships. However, cavitation is not prone to occur in model experiments because of low Reynolds number. In order to predict the cavitation phenomena, the - analysis of the viscous flow in the rudder gap is positively necessary In this study, numerical calculation was applied to the two-dimensional flow around the rudder gap using FLUENT code. The velocity and pressure field were numerically acquired and cavitation phenomena could be predicted. And the case that the round bar was installed in the rudder gap was analyzed. For reducing the acceleration force when fluid flow through the gap, modified rudder shape is proposed, It is shown that modified rudder shape restrain the pressure drop at the entrance of the gap highly both in the computational results and in the model experiment, and reduce the cavitation bubbles.
