  • 본 연구는 무기체계 획득의 신뢰성과 연구개발의 효과를 증대하기 위한 모델링과 시뮬레이션 방법을 전산유체역학을 이용하여 연구하였다. 모델링과 시뮬레이션을 이용한 시험 평가가 무기체계의 획득에 신뢰성을 줄 수 있고, 시험에 필요한 시간과 비용의 절감, 사전에 예측하고 사후에 검증이 가능한 자료를 제공할 수 있다. 그러나 현재 우리의 무기체계 획득에서는 모델링과 시뮬레이션을 적극적으로 활용하지 않고 있으며 검증을 위한 소프트웨어 사용도 제한되고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 전산유체역학을 이용한 모델링과 시뮬레이션을 위해 GAMBIT과 FLUENT를 이용하여 모델링과 시뮬레이션을 실시하였다. 그 결과 기존의 연구보다 더 좋은 결과 확인하였고 향후 무기체계의 획득과 연구개발에 많이 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

  • A model combining multi-dimensional discretized population balance equations with a computational fluid dynamics simulation (CFD-DPBE model) was developed and applied to simulate turbulent flocculation and sedimentation processes in sediment retention basins. Computation fluid dynamics and the discretized population balance equations were solved to generate steady state flow field data and simulate flocculation and sedimentation processes in a sequential manner. Up-to-date numerical algorithms, such as operator splitting and LeVeque flux-corrected upwind schemes, were applied to cope with the computational demands caused by complexity and nonlinearity of the population balance equations and the instability caused by advection-dominated transport. In a modeling and simulation study with a two-dimensional simplified pond system, applicability of the CFD-DPBE model was demonstrated by tracking mass balances and floc size evolutions and by examining particle/floc size and solid concentration distributions. Thus, the CFD-DPBE model may be used as a valuable simulation tool for natural and engineered flocculation and sedimentation systems as well as for flocculant-aided sediment retention ponds.

  • After the collapse of the Tacoma bay bridge at Tacoma Washington, the accurate prediction of aerodynamics became crucial to the sound design of bridges. CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) becomes important tool for the prediction on wind effects on the bridge due to the recent development of CFD. The usage of CFD is further prompted by the advantages in using CFD, such as low-cost and fast feed-back of design. In this paper, an unsteady compressible Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes code is used for the computation of the flow over bridges. Coakley's ��q-${\omega}$ �� two-equation turbulence model is used for the turbulent eddy viscosity. For accurate and stable computations, the local preconditioning method is adapted to the code. Aerodynamic characteristics of a couple bridges are presented to show the validity and the accuracy of the method.

  • 한국의 2016년 화장률은 82.7%로 1994년의 20.5%보다 4배나 높았다. 화장률이 점차 증가함에 따라 화장시설이 부족해지면서 화장률이 높아질수록 화장시설의 증설이 요구되고 있으며, 또한 화장로의 장기간 작동에 따라 많은 양의 연료가 사용되고 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 연구에서는 화장로의 열효율 특성을 최적화하고, 증가하는 화장에 대한 요구에 대응하는 화장 시스템을 제안한다. 본 논문의 목적은 전산 유체 역학(computational fluid dynamics, CFD)을 사용하여 시뮬레이션을 수행함으로써 열전달 계수를 포함한 열흐름 특성을 조사하는 것이다. CFD 모델은 화장시설에 대한 현장 실험으로 검증되었다. 시뮬레이션 결과, 주 연소기에서 연료 소비가 거의 25% 감소하고 체류 시간이 증가했다. 시뮬레이션을 토대로 개량된 연소기, 열교환기, 2차 연소 공기 시스템, 내화 및 단열재를 사용하여 개선된 화장로를 구성하였다. 현장실험 결과 에너지 소비가 약 54.4%로 줄어들었으며 연소 시간이 거의 20 min 단축되었다.

  • In this paper, the coupling of fine-mesh computational fluid dynamics (CFD) thermal-hydraulics (TH) code and neutronics code is achieved using the Ansys Fluent User Defined Function (UDF) for code development, including parallel meshing mapping, data computation, and data transfer. Also, some CFD schemes are designed for mesh mapping and data transfer to guarantee physical conservation in the coupling computation. Because there is no rigorous research that gives robust guidance on the various CFD schemes that must be obtained before the fine-mesh coupling computation, this work presents a quantitative analysis of the CFD meshing and mapping schemes to improve the accuracy of the value and location of key physical prediction. Furthermore, the effect of the sub-pin scale coupling computation is also studied. It is observed that even the pin-resolved coupling computation can also create a large deviation in the maximum value and spatial locations, which also proves the significance of the research on mesh mapping and data transfer for CFD code in a coupling computation.

  • In this paper, the temperature distribution according to the property change of the insulating oil of the power transformer and max temperature were predicted through the ductility interpretation which heat-flow is coupled. By using CFD (Computation Fluid Dynamics) for the interpretation, the temperature distribution of 154kV the class single phase power transformer was predicted. The power loss causing the temperature rise of the transformer was changed to the heat source and we used as the input value for the heat-flow analysis. The temperature distribution was predicted according to the change of the density, specific heat, thermal conductivity and viscosity, that is the ingredient having an effect on the temperature rise of the transformer oil. The mineral oil of 4 kinds used in domestic and international based on the interpreted result was selected and the temperature distribution according to each load and Hot Spot temperature was predicted.

  • Enormous apartment complexes in urban areas, temporary inversion state and heat island effect occur due to the strong sunshine and weak wind speeds which hinders the dispersion of air pollutants that are emitted from neighboring areas of apartment complexes. In this study, analysis were conducted by using the Fluent code based on the CFD(Computation Fluid Dynamics), including building layout, material, building height from the ground surface, the heat, analysis of flow field in the apartment complex. It was estimated that the temporal radiation inversion phenomenon during the daytime, which was caused by the weak wind speed and higher temperatures in the upper level, contributed to the stagnation of the air pollutants in the lower layer of the apartment complex.

  • With the development of computational fluid dynamics (CFD), studies on shipbuilding and maritime issues including free-surface wave flow have been conducted. Although the volume of fluid (VOF) and level-set methods are widely used to study the free-surface wave flow, disadvantages exist. In particular, it takes a long time to obtain solutions. In this study, a free-surface capturing code is developed for ship and offshore structures. The developed code focuses on accuracy and computation time. Open source CFD libraries, termed OpenFOAM, are used to develop the code. The results obtained using the developed code are compared with those obtained using interFoam. The results show that the developed code could be used to capture the free-surface wave flow without numerical diffusion; moreover, the accuracy of the developed code is largely the same as that of interFoam.

  • Overheating in electrical motors results in detrimental effects such as degradation of the insulation materials, demagnetization of magnets, increases in Joule losses, and decreases in motor efficiency and lifetime. Thus, it is important to find ways to dissipate heat from the motor and to keep the motor operating at its most efficient temperature. In this study, a new design to guide air flow through a given brushless direct current (BLDC) motor is developed and the design is analyzed, specifically by using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. The results showed that the temperature distribution in the three proposed models is lower than that in the original model, although the speed of the cooling fan in the original model reaches a very high value of $15{\times}10^3$ rpm. The results also showed that CFD can be effectively used to simulate the heat transfer of BLDC motors.
