Asymmetric tip clearance in an axial compressor induces pressure and velocity redistributions along the circumferential direction in an axial compressor. This paper presents the mechanism of the flow redistribution due to the asymmetric tip clearance with a simple numerical modeling. The flow field of a rotor of an axial compressor is predicted when an asymmetric tip clearance occurs along the circumferential direction. The modeling results are supported by CFD results not only to validate the present modeling but also to investigate more detailed flow fields. Asymmetric tip clearance makes local flow area and resultant axial velocity vary along the circumferential direction. This flow redistribution 'seed' results in a different flow patterns according to the flow coefficient. Flow field redistribution patterns are largely dependent on the local tip clearance performance at low flow coefficients. However, the contribution of the main flow region becomes dominant while the tip clearance effect becomes weak as the flow coefficient increases. The flow field redistribution pattern becomes noticeably strong if a blockage effect is involved when the flow coefficient increases. The relative flow angle at the small clearance region decreases which result in a negative incidence angle at the high flow coefficient. It causes a recirculation region at the blade pressure surface which results in the flow blockage. It promotes the strength of the flow field redistribution at the rotor outlet. These flow pattern changes have an effect on the blade loading perturbations. The integration of blade loading perturbation from control volume analysis of the circumferential momentum leads to well-known Alford's force. Alford's force is always negative when the flow blockage effects are excluded. However when the flow blockage effect is incorporated into the modeling, main flow effects on the flow redistribution is also reflected on the Alford's force at the high flow coefficient. Alford's force steeply increases as the flow coefficient increases, because of the tip leakage suppression and strong flow redistribution. The predicted results are well agreed to CFD results by Kang and Kang(2006).

With the development of a living standard, the importance of indoor air conditioning system in all kinds of buildings and vehicles has increased. A lot of researches on energy losses in a duct and various kinds of flow pattern in branches or junctions have been carried out over many years, because the primary object of a duct system used in HVAC is to provide equal flow rate in the interior of each room by minimizing pressure drop. In this study, to get equal flow distribution in each branch, a blockage is applied to the rectangular duct system. The flow analysis for flow distribution of a rectangular duct with two branches was performed by CFD. By using SIMPLE algorithm and finite volume method, flow analysis is performed in the case of 3-D, incompressible, turbulent flow. Also, the standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ model and wall function method were used for analysis of turbulent fluid flow. The distribution diagrams of static pressure, velocity vector, turbulent energy and kinetic energy in accordance with variation of Reynolds number and blockages location in a rectangular duct show that flow distribution at duct outlets is improved by a blockage. In this rectangular duct system, mean velocity and flow rate distribution in two branch outlets are nearly constant regardless of variation of Reynolds number, and a flow pattern of the internal duct has a same tendency as well.

순환골재 입도 분리를 위해 사용되는 일반적인 스크린은 막힘 현상으로 인해 함수 시료 처리가 제한적이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존 스크린의 분리 효율을 개선하기 위하여, DEM(Discrete Element Method) 기반의 모사 실험을 통해 스프링 기반의 추가 보조 진동 장치의 우수성을 판단하였다. 스프링 디자인에 따른 변위, 진폭 및 변형 각 분석을 통해 운동 특성을 확인하였으며, 이를 스크린에 적용하여 입자의 거동을 모사하였다. 입자 모사 결과, 스프링이 적용된 스크린의 물질 흐름 및 분리 효율은 각각 9.2 kg/s, 97 %로 나타났으며, 기존 스크린과의 비교를 통해 막힘 방지 스프링의 적용은 기존 스크린을 개선할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 MMS인 경우 고성능의 중급 IMU가 사용되고 보행자 항법시스템에서는 MEMS형의 저급 IMU가 사용된다고 가정한 후 GPS 신호가 단절되었을 경우 IMU에 의해 생성되는 위치 및 자세 오차를 시뮬레이션을 통하여 계산하였다. 또한 GPS 신호 단절 시에 고도계, 전자나침반 및 2가지 센서를 동시에 이용하는 MultiSensor를 이용하여 중급 및 저급 IMU를 보정하였을 경우의 정확도 향상 효과를 분석하였다. 실험 결과 중급 IMU의 경우 MMS에서 요구되는 3차원 위치오차 정확도가 5m라고 가정할 경우 GPS 단절 시간이 30초가 넘으면 요구 정확도를 만족하지 못하였다. 하지만 GPS 단절 구간에서 고도계 전자나침반 그리고 MultiSensor를 이용하여 IMU 보정을 수행할 경우 약 60초까지 요구정확도를 만족하였다. 또한 고도계 및 전자나침반을 동시에 사용할 경우 고도계에 의한 영향이 더욱 큰 것으로 판단된다 MEMS IMU와 같은 저급 IMU가 사용되는 보행자 항법 시스템의 요구 위치 정확도가 약 20m라고 가정할 경우 4초 이후에는 요구 정확도를 만족하지 못하였으며 자세 오차도 매우 급증하였다. 하지만 GPS 신호 단절시 보조센서를 이용하여 저급 IMU 보정을 수행하였을 경우 약 15초까지 요구 정확도를 만족할수 있을 것으로 시뮬레이션 결과 예측되었으며 또한 중급 IMU 실험과는 반대로 보행자 항법과 같은 속도가 느린 시스템에서 고도계 및 전자나침반 2가지 센서를 동시에 사용할 경우 전자나침반에 의한 영향이 더욱 큰 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 GPS 신호 단절이 발생할 수 있는 지역에 대하여 MMS 또는 보행자 항법시스템을 운용할 경우 요구 정확도에 따른 보조센서 통합을 이용하여 정확도를 높이는 자료로써 사용될 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

In this paper, incompressible two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations are numerically solved for the study of steady laminar flow around a body with the wall effect. A second-order finite difference method is used for the spatial discretization on the nonstaggered grid system and the 4-stage Runge-Kutta scheme for the numerical integration in time. The pressure field is obtained by solving the pressure-Poisson equation with the Neumann boundary condition. To investigate the wall effect, numerical computations are carried out for the NACA 0012 section at the various blockage ratios. The pressure and skin friction on the foil surface, velocity pronto in its wake and drag coefficient are investigated as functions of the blockage ratio.

This work developed improved slip factor model and correction method to predict flow through impeller in forward-curved centrifugal fan. Both steady and unsteady three-dimensional CFD analyses were performed to validate the slip factor model and the correction method. The results show that the improved slip factor model presented in this paper could provide more accurate predictions for forward-curved centrifugal impeller than the other slip factor models since the present model takes into account the effect of blade curvature. The correction method is provided to predict mass-averaged absolute circumferential velocity at the exit of impeller by taking account of blockage effects induced by the large-scale backflow near the front plate and flow separation within blade passage. The comparison with CFD results also shows that the improved slip factor model coupled with the present correction method provides accurate predictions for mass-averaged absolute circumferential velocity at the exit of impeller near and above the flow rate of peak total pressure coefficient.

In this work the mixing and flow characteristics of a vane-type static mixer were investigated numerically for the reduction of NOx in the SCR-system of the diesel engines. The mixer was located in the 57 times pipe diameter away from the inlet. The analysis were performed by changing such various parameters as vane shape, angles, blockage ratio and location of the vane. The flow structure through the mixer was characterized by uniformity index and pressure drop. The results show that uniformity index and pressure coefficient are substantially influenced by the vane shape, angle, blockage ratio and position of the vane of the mixer.

A numerical procedure for optimizing the shape of three-dimensional sedimentation tank is presented to maximize its sedimentation efficiency. The response surface based optimization is used as an optimization technique with Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes analysis for multi-phase flow. Standard $k-{\epsilon}$ model is used as a turbulence closure. Three design variables such as, tank height to center feed wall diameter ratio, blockage ratio of center feed wall and angle of distributor are chosen as design variables. Sedimentation efficiency is defined as an objective function. Full-factorial method is used to determine the training points as a means of design of experiment. Sensitivity of each design variable on the objective function has been evaluated. And, optimal values of the design variables have been obtained.

The present work analyzed the effect of mixing vane shape on the flow structure and heat transfer downstream of mixing vane in a subchannel of fuel assembly, by obtaining velocity and pressure fields, turbulent intensity, flow-mixing factors, heat transfer coefficient and friction factor using three-dimensional RANS analysis. NJl5, NJ25, NJ35, NJ45, which were designed by the authors, were tested to evaluate the performances in enhancing the heat transfer. Standard $\kappa-\epsilon$ model is used as a turbulence closure model, and, periodic and symmetry conditions are set as boundary conditions. The flow blockage ratio is kept constant, but the twist angle of mixing vane is changed. The results with three turbulence models( $\kappa-\epsilon$, $\kappa-\omega$, RSM) were compared with experimental data.
