The velocity and pressure fields of a ship's Weis-Fogh type propulsion mechanism are studied in this paper using an advanced vortex method. The wing (NACA0010 airfoil) and channel are approximated by source and vortex panels. and free vortices are introduced away from the body surfaces. The viscous diffusion of fluid is represented using the core-spreading model to the discrete vortices. The velocity is calculated on the basis of the generalized Biot-Savart law and the pressure field is calculated from an integral, based on the instantaneous velocity and vorticity distributions in the flow field. Two-dimensional unsteady viscous flow calculations of this propulsion mechanism are shown. and the calculated results agree qualitatively with the measured thrust and drag due to un-modeled large fluctuations in the measured data.

The velocity and pressure fields of a ship's propulsion mechanism of Weis-Fogh type are studied by advanced vortex method. The wing of NACA0010 type and the channel are approximated by a finite of source and vortex panels, and the free vortices are introduced from the surface of their bodies. The viscous diffusion of fluid is represented by the core-spreading method. The velocity field is calculated on the basis of Biot-Savart law and the pressure field is calculated from the integration equation formulated by Uhlman. The flow fields of this propulsion mechanism are unsteady and complex, but the flow fields are clarified by numerical simulation.

The three-dimensional flows in the Weis-Fogh mechanism are studied by flow visualization and numerical simulation by the vortex method. The vortex method. especially the vortex stick method, is employed to investigate the vortex structure in the wake of the two wings. The pressure is estimated by the Bernoulli equation, and the lift on the wing are also obtained. As the results the eddies near the leading edge of each wing in the fling stage take a convex shape because the eddies shed from both tips entrain the flows and the downwash in the rotating stage is deflected toward the outside because the outside tip vortex is stronger than the inside one. And the lift coefficient on the wings in this mechanism is almost independent of the Reynolds number.

본 연구는 Weis-Fogh형 수차의 유체역학적 특성을 개선 와법으로 수치계산한 것이다. 날개(NACA0010에어포일)와 양쪽 수로 벽은 소스(Source) 및 볼텍스 판넬로 근사하였고, 자유 볼텍스는 각 물체 전체표면에서 도입하였다. 타임스텝마다 날개를 이동시켜가며 본 수차의 유동장 즉 비정상 속도장과 압력장을 계산하였다. 계산변수로는 주요 설계인자인 날개 뒷전에서 날개 축까지의 거리, 수로 폭 및 최대 열림각으로 하였다. 본 수차의 1매의 날개에 대한 최대 효율 및 출력계수는 속도비 U/V=2.0에서 각각 26% 및 0.4였다. 본 수차의 유동장은 날개가 수로 내에서 비정상적으로 움직이기 때문에 매우 복잡하다. 그러나 개선 와법을 이용하여 명확하게 계산할 수 있었다.

Here is represented a vortex panel method to evaluate the performance characteristics of the 2-dimensional turbomachinery with circular arc blades or logarithmic blades. The present method is characterized by distributing small consecutive panels of linearly varing vortex strength satisfying boundary condition at control points and Kutta condition at trailing edge. To confirm the reliability of the present method, experimental result of a 2-D pump impeller of six circular arc blades is compared with the calculated one. As an application of the present method, figures are presented in series showing velocity and pressure distribution between blades.

헬리콥터의 후류가 공기력에 미치는 영향은 매우 크다. 하지만 후류의 형상은 매우 복잡하며 예상하기 힘들다. 본 연구에서는 수치적인 방법을 통하여 후류를 자세히 관찰할 것이다. 후류에서의 와류를 자세히 관찰하기 위한 수치적 방법으로는 와류격자법과 자유후류법을 사용하였다. 본 연구에서 제자리 비행에서의 후류 형상을 관찰하였다. 적절한 추력계수를 갖는 제자리 비행에서는 익단 와류 뿐 아니라 블레이드의 안쪽에서 발생하는 counter-rotating vortex도 관찰할 수 있다. 이러한 와류들이 아래로 내려가면서 익단 와류와 counter-rotating vortex가 서로 가까워지며 서로에게 영향을 끼치게 된다. 이에 따라 와류들은 자체적인 불안정성으로 인해 형상이 변한다.

An experimental study has been made to investigate the effect on wake flow and vortex shedding frequency by vortex stabilizer in Karman vortex type air flow sensor. The conditions investigated include 3 types of shapes and 3 types of separation distances of the vortex stabilizer. The phase averaged technique and smoke-wire flow visualization method are used to understand the detail information. The rolling up position of shear layer is fixed by the influence of the vortex stabilizer. Especially, the convex type vortex stabilizer has shown the more stable repeatability and linearity regarding the vortex shedding frequency compared to the other types.

Current trends in propeller design have led to the need for extremely complex blade shapes, which place great demands on the accuracy of design and analysis methods. This paper presents a new proposal for improving the prediction of propeller performance with a vortex lattice method using the lifting surface theory. The paper presents a review of the theory and a description of the numerical methods employed. For 8 different propellers, the open water characteristics are calculated and compared with experimental data. The results are in good agreement in the region of a high advanced velocity, but there are differences in the other case. We have corrected the parameters for the trailing wake modeling in this paper, and repeated the calculation. The new calculation results are more in agreement with the experimental data.

The Flow patterns around two cylinders in various arrangements were studied by a discrete vortex method. The flow for the surface of each cylinder was represented by arranging bound vortices at adequate intervals. The viscous diffusion of fluid was represented by the random walk method. The vortex distributions. streaklines. timelines and velocity vectors around two cylinders were calculated for centre-to-centre pitch ratios of P/D=1.5 and 2.5, attack ang1es of $a=0^{circ}, 30^{circ}, 60^{circ} and 90^{\circ}$. and Reynolds number of Re= 1200. The results of simulation correspond to the photographs by flow visualization and the flow intereference between two cylinders in various arrangements were clearly visualized by a numerical simulation.

The velocity and pressure fields of a ship's propulsion mechanism of the Weis-Fogh type, in which a airfoil moves reciprocally in a channel, are studied in this paper using the advanced vortex method. The airfoil and the channel are approximated by a finite number of source and vortex panels, and the free vortices are introduced from the body surfaces. The viscous diffusion of fluid is represented using the core-spreading model to the discrete vortices. The velocity is calculated on the basis of the generalized Biot-Savart law and the pressure field is calculated from integrating the equation given by the instantaneous velocity and vorticity fields. Two-dimensional unsteady viscose flows of this propulsion mechanism are numerically clarified, and the calculated results agree well with the experimental ones.
