This paper compares various potential based panel methods for the analysis of two-dimensional hydrofoil. The strength of singularity on each panel is assumed to be constant or linear. Robin boundary condition as well as Neumann and Dirichlet boundary conditions are applied to various formulations to evaluate the accuracies of the methods. Pressures and lifts are computed for various two-dimensional hydrofoil geometries and are compared with the analytic solutions. Extensive studies are performed on the local errors near the trailing edge, known to be sensitive to the foil geometry with sharp trailing edge and high camber. Robin boundary condition with the perturbation velocity potential formulation shows the best accuracy and convergence rate.

선행 연구에서 블레이드 뒷전에 탄성 플랩이 장착되면 받음각에 따라 양력의 증가가 항력의 증가보다 상대적으로 더 커지게 되어 전체적인 양항비(앙력과 항력의 비)가 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 본 논문에서는 선행의 연구를 참조하여 플랩의 길이가 변함에 따라서 양력과 항력의 변화를 비교하였다. 블레이드의 종류와 플랩의 제원은 현재 이용되는 수직축 풍력 발전기의 제품과 동일하게 사용하였다. EDISON_CFD와 MIDAS_IT를 이용하여 플랩이 장착된 블레이드 주변의 유체 유동을 해석하고, 플랩의 상하변위를 계산하였다. 이 과정을 반복 수행하여 플랩의 거동을 분석하고 플랩의 길이와 받음각에 따른 양항비를 비교하여 이전보다 효율적인 플랩을 설계하였다.

본 논문은 2차원 해면효과의 수치계산 결과를 정리하였다. 지면으로부터의 높이변화에 따른 점성유동장을 계산하기 위하여 지배방정식으로는 비압축성 RANS 방정식을, 시간에 대하여서는 음해법으로 프로그램을 구성하였다. 압력항은 가상압축성과 4차 수치확산항을 추가하는 것에 의해 계산하였으며, 높은 레이놀즈 수에서의 효과적인 계산을 위해 Baldwin- Lomax 난류모델을 도입하였다. 해면효과가 없는 무한유중에서의 NACA-0012 단면 계산결과를 실험 데이터와 비교하는 것에 의해 프로그램의 타당성을 확인하였다. NACA-6409와 두께 비 4.6%의 날개에 대하여 해면효과를 고려한 계산을 수행하였다. 계산결과, 높이의 변화에 따라 계산된 무차원계수, 압력 및 속도분포는 해면효과의 특성을 잘 보여주고 있다.

Recently, the erosion due to cavitation frequently occurs on a horn-type rudder of a high-speed large container carrier. It is necessary to understand the flow characteristics around a rudder in fully wetted and cavitating flow condition, and the process of generation and collapse of cavitation for a rudder design to minimize the cavity-induced erosion. The flow characteristics around a two-dimensional hydrofoil(NACA66) are investigated through the computational method utilizing a viscous flow theory applied to a cavitation model. The computational results from the viscous flow theory are verified by the comparison with the experimental results, and are compared with those from the potential flow theory. The effects of angle of attack, Reynolds number, cavitation number, and thickness ratio on the cavitating flow are also investigated.

A 3-dimensional unsteady numerical analysis has been performed to evaluate the aerodynamic characteristics of a Giromill. Generally, the structure of a Giromill is simple and therefore easy to develop. In addition, the high solidity of the Gironmill helps improve the self-starting capacity at a low tip speed ratio (TSR). However, contrary to the Darrieus wind turbine which has a TSR of 4-7, a Giromill has a low TSR of 1-3. In this study, the aerodynamic characteristics of the Giromill are investigated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Three straight-bladed wings are used, and the solidity of the Giromill is 0.75. In contrast to a Darrieus wind turbine having low solidity, the Giromill shows a sudden decrease in the aerodynamic performance because of the interference between the wings and an increase in the drag on the wings in the downstream direction where wind flow is significantly reduced. Consequently, the aerodynamic performance decreased at a TSR value lower than 2.4.

Panel methods are essential tools for analyzing a fluid-flow problem around complex three dimensional bodies, but they lack ability to solve viscous effects. On the other hand, CFD methods are considered as powerful tools for analyzing fluid-flow characteristics including viscosity. However, they also have short falls, requiring more computing time and showing different results depending on the selection of turbulence models and grid systems. In this paper a hybrid scheme combining a panel method and a CFD method is suggested. The scheme adopts a panel method for far-field solution where viscous effects are negligible and a CFD method for the solution of RANS equations in near-field where viscous effects are relatively strong. The intermediate region between the far-field and near-field is introduced where the calculated field point velocities by the panel method are given as boundary velocities for the CFD method. To verify the scheme, calculated results, by a panel method, a CFD method and the hybrid scheme, for a two dimensional foil section are compared. The suggested hybrid scheme gives reasonable results, while computation time and memory can be dramatically reduced. By using the hybrid scheme efforts can be concentrated for the local flow near the leading and trailing edges, by providing more dense grid system, where detailed flow characteristics are required.

Nonlinear aeroelastic characteristics of a two dimensional typical section model with bilinear plunge spring are investigated. Doublet-point method(DPM) is used for the calculation of supersonic unsteady aerodynamic forces which are approximated by using the minimum-state approximation. For nonlinear flutter analysis structural nonlinearity is represented by an asymmetric bilinear spring and is linearized by using the describing function method. The linear and nonlinear flutter analyses indicate that the flutter characteristics are significantly dependent on the frequency ratio. From the nonlinear flutter analysis, various types of limit cycle oscillations are observed in a wide range of air speeds below or above the linear flutter boundary. The nonlinear flutter characteristics and the nonlinear aeroelastic responses are investigated.

A comparative study on the turbulent flaw simulation and the potential flaw analysis has been performed. A law Mach number preconditioned Navier-Stokes solver, using the multi-block grid method and a panel method based on the velocity potential, have been developed and validated by comparison to the experimental data. The present numerical analysis methods are applied to the ground effect problem around the NACA 4412 airfoil. It has been confirmed that the potential flaw analysis on the ground effect, using the image method, is consistent, to some degree, with the viscous calculations for high Reynolds number flows.

A Finite volume method for the computation of the two-dimensional, incompressible, steady, laminar Navier-Stokes equation is developed using a non-staggered grid system in a general curvilinear coordinate. The numerical pressure fluctuations, usually encountered when the non-staggered grid system is used, is suppressed by the momentum interpolation method. Flows around a NACA0012 foil section have been computed by the present method and the results show good agreements with other experimental and numerical ones.
