Aviation turbulence, caused by atmospheric eddies, is a disruptive phenomenon that leads to abrupt aircraft movements during flight. To minimize the damages caused by such aviation turbulence, the Aviation Meteorological Office provides turbulence information through the Korea aviation Turbulence Guidance (KTG) and the Global-Korean aviation Turbulence Guidance (GKTG). In this study, we evaluated the performance of the KTG and GKTG models by comparing the in-situ EDR observation data and the generated aviation turbulence prediction data collected from the mid-level Korean Peninsula region from January 2019 to December 2021. Through objective validation, we confirmed the level of prediction performance and proposed improvement measures based on it. As a result of the improvements, the KTG model showed minimal difference in performance before and after the changes, while the GKTG model exhibited an increase of TSS after the improvements.

LES analysis was conducted with in-house CFD code to investigate the turbulence evolution and interaction due to turbulence ring and splash plate in the gas generator. The calculation results show that the installation of turbulence ring can introduce additional turbulences and significantly improve turbulent mixing in the downstream flow. However, the addition of splash plate in the downstream of TR(Turbulence Ring) brings totally different shape of perturbation energy and enstrophy distribution into turbulent mixing. This enhancement can be done by the formation of the intensively strong vorticity and mixing behind the plate. Pressure drop was found to be a reasonable level of about 1% or less of initial pressure in all calculation cases. Also, calculation results revealed that the variation of shape and intrusion length of TR did not greatly affect the characteristics of turbulent mixing in the chamber. Even though the effect of installation location of splash plate on the turbulent mixing was not investigated yet, calculation results conclude the addition of splash plate leads to the increase in turbulent mixing with an acceptable pressure drop.

Large Eddy Simulation (LES) of turbulent premixed combustion flow is performed by using the dynamic subgrid scale model based on -equation describing the flame front propagation. After introducing the LES governing equations with dynamic subgrid scale (DSGS) model newly introduced into the -equation, the turbulent premixed combustion flow over backward facing step is analyzed to validate present formulation. The calculated results can predict the velocity and temperature of the combustion flow in good agreement with the experiment data.

The turbulent flow in the rotor-stator mixer is based on shear characteristics generated by the interaction of the stator with the rotor rotating at high speed. In this study, the flow characteristics analysis of the unsteady state generated by the interaction of the rotor and the stator in the prototype model of the emulsion-fuel related mixer development was performed with the MRF and SMM by applying the ANSYS FLUENT $k-{\varepsilon}$ (RKE) turbulence model. The behavior and shear characteristics of the flow particles generated at the interface between the designed rotor and stator, and trends such as velocity distribution and turbulence eddy dissipation, were predicted and verified using the CFD analysis.

Korean aviation Turbulenc Guidance (KTG) system is developed using the operational unified model (UM) of the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) and pilot reports (PIREPs) over East Asia. The KTG system comprised of twenty turbulence diagnostics that represent various turbulence potentials and have the best forecasting skills, which are combined into a single ensemble-averaged index, namely KTG, at upper-(above FL250) and mid-(below FL250) levels. It is found that the overall performance of the KTG is higher than those produced from the one single best index, and satisfies the minimum criteria (80% accuracy) that the system is operationally useful in aviation industry.

This study is performed to analyze the turbulence distribution of Fev. & Mar. in 2000 by the analysis of the parameters related with flight data of FDR(Flight Data Recorder). In the analysis, we selected the Solid State Flight Data Recorder(SSFDR) & Universal Flight Data Recorder(UFDR) flight data of the exact same aircraft(capacity 120 persons). Through this study, we verified that turbulence is concerned with configuration of the ground and flight situation of aircraft.

This study focused on the aerodynamic loads of the horizontal axis wind turbine blade due to the normal turbulence inflow condition. Normal turbulence model (NTM) includes the variations of wind speed and direction, and it is characterized by turbulence intensity and standard deviation of flow fluctuation. IEC61400-1 recommends the fatigue analysis for the NTM and the normal wind profile (NWP) conditions. The aerodynamic loads are obtained at the blade hub and the low speed drive shaft for MW class horizontal axis wind turbine which is designed by using aerodynamically optimized procedure. The 6-components of aerodynamic loads are investigated between numerical results and load components analysis. From the calculated results the maximum amplitudes of oscillated thrust and torque for LSS with turbulent inflow condition are about 5~8 times larger than those with no turbulent inflow condition. It turns out that the aerodynamic load analysis with normal turbulence model is essential for structural design of the wind turbine blade.
