This research was aimed to figure out the trend of dust diffusion at open pit limestone mine for assessing the environmental impacts on the high voltage power transmission line. It is rather easy to assess the dust generation and size distribution of limestone dust at the blasting site, but it is very hard to assess the expected area of dust diffusion and amount of dust fall by the distances from the dust source. In this research, a 3-dimensional fluid dynamic simulation software (3D-Flow) was used for analysing the above mentioned matters to assess the impacts to the insulators on the transmission tower by the blasting dust. It was verfied that the 3D-Flow is reliable tool for simulating dust movement, and the limestone dust is not much hazardous to the power transmission line.

The interaction between a normal shock wave and a boundary layer along a wall surface in internal compressible flows causes a very complicated flow. This interaction region containing shock train and mixing region is called as pseudo-shock waves. Pseudo-shock waves in the divergent part of a rectangular nozzle have been investigated by using large-eddy simulation (LES). LES studies have been done for the complex flow phenomena of three-dimensional pseudo-shock waves. The LES results have been validated against experimental wall-pressure measurements. The LES results are in good agreement with experimental results. Pseudo-shock length and corner separation have been studied in three-dimensional LES model. Comparison of centerline pressure measurement and 3D visualization measurement has been discussed for the corner separation position. It has been concluded that the pseudo-shock length should be measured by using 3D visualization measurement.

Study on the Ti-6Al-4V have been carried out using cutting simulation, and researches for cutting force and chip shape prediction have been actively conducted under various conditions. However, a 3D printer application method using Ti-6Al-4V metal powder material as a high-power method has been studied for the purpose of prototyping, mold modification and product modification while lowering material removal rate. However, in the case of products / parts made of 3D printers using powder materials, problems may occur in the contact surface during tolerance management and assembly due to the degradation of the surface quality. As a result, even if a 3D printer is applied, post-processing through cutting is essential for surface quality improvement and tolerance management. In the cutting simulation, the cutting force and the chip shape were predicted based on the Johnson-Cook composition equation, but the shape of the shear type chip was not predictable. To solve this problem, we added a damaging term or strain softening term to the Johnson-Cook constitutive equation to predict chip shape. In this thesis, we applied the constant value of the S-K equations to the cutting simulation to predict the cutting force and compare with the experimental data to verify the validity of the cutting simulation and analyzed the machining characterization by considering conditions.

Jet pump in automotive fuel tank module is used to deliver fuel to fuel pump so that the pump is operated without aeration in suction side. In this study, three dimensional simulation model of jet pump is developed to understand performance variation over design parameters. Performance of jet pump is also investigated experimentally in terms of operating pressures. The experimental data is used to verify the three dimensional simulation model of jet pump. Verification results show that the three dimensional simulation model of jet pump is about 1% error with experiment. The simulations are conducted in terms of throat ratio and primary flow induction angle. As the throat ratio is increased, the flux ratio is trade-off at 3 times of throat diameter. On the other hand, as primary flow induction angle is increased, vapor pressure inside the nozzle is decreased. In summary, the results show that liquid jet pump has to be optimized over design parameters. Additionally, high velocity of induced flow is able to evolve cavitation phenomena inside the jet pump.

As computer capacity has been progressed continuously, the studies of the flow characteristics have been performing by the numerical methods actively. Recent numerical simulation has a tendency to require the higher-order accuracy in time, as well as in space. This tendency is more true in LES and acoustic noise simulation. In this study, 3-dimensional unsteady Incompressible Navier-Stokes equation was solved by numerical method using the fractional step method with the fourth order compact pade scheme to achieve high accuracy To validate the present code and algorithm, 3D flow-field around a cylinder was simulated. The drag coefficient and lift coefficient were computed and, then, compared with experiment. The present code will be tailored to LES simulation for more accurate turbulent flow analysis.

In case of constructing submerged breakwaters for the purpose of preventing coastal erosion, the number of submerged breakwaters, as well as their asymmetry is dependent on the field conditions. The aim of the present study was to examine the 3-D hydrodynamic characteristics (3-D wave field, wave height, mean water level, and mean flow) around the asymmetric submerged breakwaters using a 3-D numerical model, LES-WASS-3D, which was validated through a comparison with existing experimental data and showed fairly nice agreement. From the numerical results, the wave height, mean water level, and mean flow are discussed in relation with the variation in the breakwater length ratio.

A computer simulation model for rice circulating concurrent-flow dryer was developed and verified by conduction a series of pilot-scale experiment. The effects of design parameter and operating conditions on dryer performance were analyzed by using simulation. The results indicated that the developed model was found suitable for analyzing operating characteristics. The other results from simulation also showed that; 1) an increse in the initial moisture content resulted in an increase in the drying rate and a reduction in the grain temperature and total energy requirements. 2) an increase in the drying air temperature resulted in an increase in the drying rate and grain temperature. 3) an increase in air flow rate resulted in an radical increase in drying rate, fan power requirements and total energy requirements but an radical decrease in final head rice yield. 4) an increase in the bed depth resulted in an increase in fan power requirements and a lowering of the final head rice yield.

Flow difference between reacting and non-reacting case in a swirl stabilized annular combustor is investigated using 3D Large Eddy Simulation with flamelet turbulent combustion model. The combustor of concern is the LM6000, lean premixed dry low-NOx annular combustor, developed by GEAE. Boundary conditions are based on experimental data. Heat release as a result of combustion put the dilatation of density in primary combustion zone highly increased so that the main swirl stream behind of a swirl cup stretched further downstream than that of non-reacting case. The oval shape of core flow in cross-section to flow direction, which clearly observed in non-reacting case, tends to be circle, and small vorticities in wide range in non-reacting case disappears, but the size of iso-vorticity increase in reacting case.

The purpose of this 3-D numerical simulation is evaluate the application of a commercial CFD code to predict 3-D flow characteristics of wind turbine. The experimental approach, which has been main method of investigation, appears to be its limits, the cost increasing disproportionally with the size of the wind turbines, and is hence mostly limited to observing the phenomena. Hence, the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques and Wavier-Stokes solvers are considered a very serious contender. The flow solver CFX-TASCflow is employed in all computations presented in this paper. The 3-D flow separation and the wake distribution of 2 bladed Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines (HAWTs) are compared to Heuristic model and visualized result by NREL(National Renewable Energy Laboratory). Simulated 3-D flow separation structure on the rotor blade is very similar to Heuristic model and the wake structure of the wind turbine is good agree with visualized results.

The purpose of this 3-D numerical simulation is evaluate the application of a commercial CFD code to predict 3-D flow and power characteristics of wind turbines. The experimental approach, which has been main method of investigation, appears to be its limits, the cost increasing with the size of the wind turbines, hence mostly limited to observing the phenomena on rotor blades. Therefore, the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques and Navier-Stokes solvers are considered a very serious contender. The flow solver CFX-TASCflow is employed in all computations in this paper. The 3-D flow separation and the wake distribution of 2 and 3 bladed Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines (HAWTs) are compared to Heuristic model and smoke-visualized experimental result by NREL(National Renewable Energy Laboratory). Simulated 3-D flow separation structure on the rotor blade is very similar to Heuristic model and the wake structure of the wind turbine is good consistent with smoke-visualized result. The calculated power of the 3 bladed rotor by CFD is compared with BEM results by TV-Delft. The CFD results of which is somewhat consist with BEM results, under an error less than 10%.
