2-edge box girder bridges have been widely used in civil engineering practice. However, these bridges show weakness in aerodynamic stability. To overcome this weakness, additional attachments, such as fairing and flap, are usually used. These additional attachments can increase the cost and decrease the constructability. Some previous researchers suggested an aerodynamically stabilized 2-edge box girder section, giving a slope to the edge box instead of installing additional attachments. However, their studies are limited to only dynamic stability, even though static aerodynamic coefficients are as important as dynamic stability. In this study, focus was given to the evaluation of static aerodynamic response for a stabilized 2-edge box girder section. For this, the slopes of the edge box were varied from $0^{\circ}$ to $17^{\circ}$ and static coefficients were obtained through a series of wind tunnel tests. The results were then compared with those from computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis. From the results, it was found that the drag coefficients generally decreased with the increasing box slope angle, except for the specific box slope range. This range of box slope varied depending on the B/H ratio, and this should be avoided for the practical design of such a bridge, since it results in poor static aerodynamic response.

The aerodynamic design of the two-stages of centrifugal compressors in an 1.2MW industrial gas turbine is completed with the application of numerical analyses. The final shape of an intake, the axial guide vanes and a return channel is determined using several interactions between design and two-dimensional turbulent flow analysis, focused on the minimum loss of internal flows. The one-dimensional turbulent flow analysis, focused on the minimum loss of internal flows. The one-dimensional design and prediction of aerodynamic performances for the compressors are performed by two different methods; one is a method with conventional loss models, and the other a method with the two-zone model. The combination methods of the Betzier curves generate three-dimensional geometric shapes of impeller blades which are to be checked with a careful change of aerodynamic blade loadings. The impeller design is finally completed by the applications of three-dimensional compressible turbulent flow solvers, and the effect of minor change of design of the second-stage channel diffuser is also studied. All the aerodynamic design results are soon to the verified by component performance tests of prototype centrifugal compressors.

There has been necessity to supplement the fin database to improve the accuracy of low-fidelity aerodynamic solver for missile configuration. In this study, fin database is expanded by in-house solver, utilized in the triservice data the previously established into regions beyond means of CFD. Fin alone data of CFD analysis results in the original region is matched well with triservice data originated from the wind tunnel tests. Extensive fin aerodynamic data from CFD analysis is added to the existing database of the low-fidelity solver. For confirmation, aerodynamic characteristics of body-tail and body-canard-tail missile configurations is computed using upgraded low-fidelity solver at transonic region. The result using improved solver shows good agreements with wind tunnel test and CFD analysis results, which implies that it becomes more accurate.

하중해석을 위한 선형 패널법에서 압력과 다운워시와의 관계는 공력영향계수로 표현되며 점성 효과는 무시되고 천음속 영역에서 압축성 효과를 적절히 표현하지 못한다. 공력영향계수는 공력면의 평면형상에 의해 결정되므로 저 레이놀즈 수의 유동의 특성을 나타내는 데는 한계가 있다. 따라서 공력계수의 시험치를 구속조건으로 하여 압력분포를 직접 보정하거나 다운워시를 보정하여 유효 캠버나 두께를 반영하여 압력분포를 보정하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 전승보정방법과 후승보정방법을 초소형 비행체의 균형해석 및 하중해석을 위한 공기력 보정에 적용하였다. 이론적인 공기력은 패널법을 이용하였으며 단일 구속조건과 이중 구속조건을 적용하여 보정행렬과 보정된 압력계수를 구하였다. 초소형 비행체의 공력보정에 있어서 비행영역의 특성으로 인해 후승보정방법이 보다 나은 결과를 나타내었다.

연구에서는 주파수 영역 패널법을 이용하여 조종면이 있는 날개의 비선형 공력특성을 해석하였다. 날개의 비선형 공력특성을 해석하기 위해 반복적 캠버변형 기법을 도입하였다. 캠버변형 기법은 기지의 에어포일 공력특성을 이용하여 날개의 비선형 공력특성을 해석한다. 날개의 한 단면에서의 에어포일 캠버변형이 날개의 다른 단면에 미치는 영향은 다차원 뉴턴 반복법을 사용하여 고려하였다. 해석결과를 실험값과 비교하여 본 방법의 유효함을 보였다. 본 방법은 많은 계산 자원을 요하지 않으면서 신속하게 날개의 비선형 공력특성을 예측할 수 있어 항공기 설계 초기 단계에서 유용할 것으로 생각된다.

A space launch vehicle departs the ground in a low speed, soon reaches a transonic and a supersonic speed, and then flies in a hypersonic speed into the space. Therefore, the design of a launch vehicle should include the prediction of aerodynamic characteristics for all speed regimes, ranging from subsonic to hypersonic speed. Generally, Empirical and analytical methods and wind tunnel tests are used for the prediction of aerodynamic characteristics. This research presents considerable factors for aerodynamic analysis of a launch vehicle using CFD. This investigation was conducted to determine effects of wake over the base section on the aerodynamic characteristics of a launch vehicle and also performed to determine effects of the sting which exist to support wind tunnel test model.

The present paper discusses the characteristics of unsteady aerodynamic forces on long-span curved roofs. A forced vibration test is carried out in a wind tunnel to investigate the effects of wind speed, vibration amplitude, reduced frequency of vibration and rise/span ratio of the roof on the unsteady aerodynamic forces. Because the range of parameters tested in the wind tunnel experiment is limited, a CFD simulation is also made for evaluating the characteristics of unsteady aerodynamic forces on the vibrating roof over a wider range of parameters. Special attention is paid to the effect of reduced frequency of vibration. Based on the results of the wind tunnel experiment and CFD simulation, the influence of the unsteady aerodynamic forces on the dynamic response of a full-scale long-span curved roof is investigated on the basis of the spectral analysis.

Aerodynamic design of the vane type multi-function probe was tried by using CFD and wind tunnel test for the MALE UAV and small business jets. The present multi-function probe can measure total pressure, static pressure and angle of attack by using rotating vane.

In oder to design the sensor compatible to the requirement, aerodynamic characteristics of sensors was investigated by using CFD and dynamic response analysis was also performed for trasient performance. The final aerodynamic performance was measured by the wind tunnel test at Aeorsonic and the results successfully used for the design of vane type multi-function air data sensor.

Flutter wind-tunnel test is an expensive and complicated process. Also, the test model may has discrepancy in the structural characteristics when compared to those of the real model. "Dry Wind-Tunnel" (DWT) is an innovative testing system which consists of the ground vibration test (GVT) hardware system and software which computationally can be operated and feedback in real-time to yield rapidly the unsteady aerodynamic forces. In this paper, we study on the aerodynamic forces of DWT system to feedback in time domain. The aerodynamic forces in the reduced-frequency domain are approximated by Minimum-state approximation. And we present a state-space equation of the aerodynamic forces. With the two simulation model, we compare the results of the flutter analysis.
