A surface piercing propeller (SPP) in tunnel has been proposed recently as a new propulsion system for a high speed air cavity ship. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the characteristics of the SPP in tunnel through a series of model tests. A model propulsion system is placed on a dummy body made of Acrylics. The tunnel is divided into two regions by a guide vane extending from the inlet to the center of the propeller shaft. Air has been supplied from an air nozzle placed at the bottom of the dummy body and the changes in propeller performances caused by the air flow are investigated. The measurements are done for open water and in-tunnel conditions, both for fully and partially submerged propeller. The influence of the guide vane configurations on the propeller performance is also studied. The experiments are performed at the variable pressure circulation water channel of Inha University

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. Therefore, major performances are determined by aerodynamic characteristics of vane. In order to design the sensor compatible to the requirement, aerodynamic characteristics of sensors were investigated by using CFD and dynamic response analysis was also performed for transient performance. The final aerodynamic performance was measured by the wind tunnel test at Aerosonic and the results were compared with the present design. The results showed that the aerodynamic design using the CFD can be successfully used for the design of vane type multi-function air data sensor.

The work presented in this paper concerns the aerodynamic characteristics and compression wave generated in a tunnel when a high speed train enters it. A large number of solutions have been proposed to reduce the amplitude of the pressure gradient in tunnels and some of the most efficient solutions consist of (a) addition ofa blind hood, (b) addition of inclined part at the entrance, and (c) holes in the ceiling of the tunnel. These are numerically studied by using the three-dimensional unsteady compressible Euler equation solver with ALE, CFD code, based on FEM method. Computational results showed that the smaller inclined angle leads to the lower pressure gradient of compression wave front. This study indicated that the most efficient slant angle is in the range from $30^{\circ}$ to $50^{\circ}$. The maximum pressure gradient is reduced by $26.81\%$ for the inclined angle of $30^{\circ}$ as compared to vertical entry. Results also showed that maximum pressure gradient can be reduced by $15.94\%$ in blind hood entry as compared to $30^{\circ}$ inclined tunnel entry. Furthermore, the present analysis showed that inclined slant angle has little effect on aerodynamic drag. Comparison of the pressure gradient between the inclined tunnel hood and the vertical entry with air vent holes indicated that the optimum inclined tunnel hood is much more effective way in reducing pressure gradient and increasing the pressure rise time.

Tunnel site where high water pressure is applied, such as subsea tunnel, generally selects the shield TBM (Tunnel Boring Machine) to maintain the tunnel excavation face. The shield TBM has cutters installed, and the cutters wear out during the process of excavation, so it should be checked and replaced regularly. This is called CHI (Cutterhead Intervention). The conventional CHI under high water pressure is very disadvantageous in terms of safety and economics because humans perform work in response to high water pressure and huge water inflow in the chamber. To overcome this disadvantage, this study proposes a new method to dramatically reduce water pressure and water ingress by injecting an appropriate grout solution into the front of the tunnel face through the shield TBM chamber, called New Face Grouting Method (NFGM). The tunnel model tests were performed to determine the characteristics, injection volume, and curing time of grout solution to be applied to the NFGM. Model test apparatus was composed of a pressure soil tank, a model shield TBM, a grout tank, and an air compressor to measure the amount of water inflow into the chamber. The model tests were conducted by changing the injection amount of the grout solution, the curing time after the grout injection, and the water/cement ratio of grout solution. From an economic point of view, the results showed that the injection volume of 1.0 L, curing time of 6 hours, and water/cement ratio of the grout solution between 1.5 and 2.0 are the most economical. It can be concluded that this study has presented a method to economically perform the CHI under the high water pressure.

고속철도는 일반철도와는 달리 터널구간에서 여러 가지 공기역학적인 문제가 발생한다. 개활지와 비교하여 크기가 매우 작은 터널에서 고속으로 운행하는 열차는 큰 공기저항을 받게 되어 주행 안정성이 떨어지고, 터널 내의 급격한 압력변동으로 객차 내 승객의 이명감 발생, 터널출구에서의 소음공해 등 일반철도에서는 예상치 못했던 문제를 유발시킨다. 이 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 본 고에서는 공기압의 특성 분석에 대하여 소개하고자 한다. 수치시뮬레이션을 통해 이명감 기준을 만족하는 최적의 단면을 검토하였다. 또한, 경부고속철도를 운행하는 열차에서 객차내 압력을 측정하였고, 화신5터널에서 터널내 압력 및 터널출구에서의 미기압을 측정하였다. 동시에 열차주행 모형실험을 수행하여 수치시뮬레이션의 입력조건으로 사용된 각종 매개변수 등의 적정성을 비교 검증하였다.

충격쇄파압은 권파성 파랑이 구조물 전면에 갑자기 충돌할 때 발생하며 접촉면에서 공기포켓의 생성여부에 따라 충격쇄파압의 작용특성이 달라진다. 수괴의 직접적인 충돌에 따른 Wagner형은 접촉면에서 단일 압력 첨두치를 보이는 반면, Bagnold형은 공기포켓의 진동에 의하여 비접촉면에서도 압력의 첨두치를 보이는 특성이 있다. 본 연구에서는 시공 중의 수중터널 벌크헤드의 배면(육측면)에 발생하는 충격쇄파압을 고찰하였다. Navier-Stokes 방정식을 직접 푸는 수치해석을 적용하여 벌크헤드 인근에 발생하는 쇄파를 모의한 결과, 벌크헤드의 배면에서 강한 Bagnold형 충격쇄파압이 발생함을 확인하였다. 본 충격쇄파압의 존재는 동일 조건에 대하여 수행한 수리모형실험에 의해서도 확인되었으며, 실험결과와 수치해석결과가 대체적으로 유사한 성향을 보임을 확인하였다.

This Paper aims for analyzing the effect of opening types on wind-driven ventilation performance in basement parking lots of apartment. The scale model of basement parking lot was made, wind tunnel tests conducted. Wind pressure of three opening types was measured, wind pressure coefficient calculated. As the result, it showed that the air flow pattern of stack type opening was strongly changed by wind direction, but it was almost not at scuttle vent type. But, as for the difference of wind pressure coefficient, stack type opening was more than the other two types.

Sudden intrusion of a large amount of surface water into a flood defensive tunnel or pipeline system can compress the residual air. The compressed air may explode along with water through the inlet or air vent, resulting in hydraulic capacity degradation or safety hazards. This study aims to investigate the behavior of compressed air body in pipelines according to the residual air condition with a series of laboratory experiments measuring pressure variation. It has been found that flow characteristics and residual air conditions have a dominant influence on the magnitude and periodicity of the pressure variation. A proper measure to effectively control the residual air is required for securing the design capacity of flood defensive pipeline systems, since the peak pressure is predominantly affected by residual air conditions.
