  • Drag prediction is sought for the aifoil having laminar and turbulent flow characteristics with CFD code being unable to predict transition to turbulent flow. Laminar flow simulation presents some insight to the transition position. Separate simulations with laminar and turbulent flow and their combination estimate the drag of the airfoil containing laminar and turbulent flow characteristics.

  • Agricultural or rural landscape provides various ecosystem services. However, the ecosystem services function is declining due to various environmental problems such as climate change, land use change, stream intensification, non-point pollution and garbage. The A1B scenario predicts that the mean air temperature of South Korea will rise $3.8^{\circ}C$ degrees celsius in 2100. Agricultural sector is very vulnerable to climate change, so it must be thoroughly predicted and managed. In Korea, the facility horticulture complex is 54,051ha in 2016 and is the 3rd largest in the world(MAFRA, 2014). Facilities of horticultural complexes are reported to cause problems such as groundwater decrease, vegetation and insects diversity reduction, landscapes damage and garbage increase, compared with the existing land use paddy fields. Heat island phenomenon associated with climate change is also accelerated by the high heat absorption of horticultural sites. Therefore, we analyzed the heat island phenomenon occurring in the facility of horticultural complex in Korea. As an improvement measurement, I examined how much air temperature is reduced by putting the channel and the open space. In the case of the Buyeo area, the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation was analyzed for the average summer temperature distribution in the current land use mode at $38.9^{\circ}C$. As an improvement measurement, CFD simulation after 10% of 6m water channel was found to have an effect of lowering the summer temperature of about $2.7^{\circ}C$ compared with the present average of $36.2^{\circ}C$. In addition, CFD simulations after analyzing 10% of the open space were analyzed at $34.7^{\circ}C$, which is $4.2^{\circ}C$ lower than the present. For the Jinju area, CFD simulations were analyzed for the average temperature of summer at $37.8^{\circ}C$ in the present land use pattern. As an improvement measure, CFD simulations after 10% of 6m water channel were found to have an effect of lowering the summer temperature of about $2.6^{\circ}C$ compared to the current average of $35.2^{\circ}C$. In addition, CFD simulations after analyzing 10% of the open space were analyzed at $33.9^{\circ}C$, which is $3.9^{\circ}C$ lower than the present. It can be said that the effect of summer temperature drop in open space and waterway has been proven. The results of this study are expected to be reflected in sustainable agriculture land use and used as basic data for government - level policy in land use planning for climate change.

  • The use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is becoming an increasingly popular means to model wind flows in and around buildings. The first published application of CFD to both indoor and outdoor building airflows was in the 1970's. Since then, CFD usage has expanded to include different aspects of building design. Wind tunnel testing (WTT) on buildings for wind loads goes back as far as 1908. Gustave Eiffel built a pair of wind tunnels in 1908 and 1912. Using these he published wind loads on an aircraft hangar in 1919 as cited in Hoerner (1965 - page 74). The second of these wind tunnels is still in use today for tests including building design ($Damljanovi{\acute{c}}$, 2012). The Empire State Building was tested in 1933 in smooth flow - see Baskaran (1993). The World Trade Center Twin Towers in New York City were wind tunnel tested in the mid-sixties for both wind loads, at Colorado State University (CSU) and the [US] National Physical Laboratory (NPL), as well as pedestrian level winds (PLW) at the University of Western Ontario (UWO) - Baskaran (1993). Since then, the understanding of the planetary boundary layer, recognition of the structures of turbulent wakes, instrumentation, methodologies and analysis have been continuously refined. There is a drive to replace WTT with computational methods, with the rationale that CFD is quicker, less expensive and gives more information and control to the architects. However, there is little information available to building owners and architects on the limitations of CFD for flows around buildings and communities. Hence building owners, developers, engineers and architects are not aware of the risks they incur by using CFD for different studies, traditionally conducted using wind tunnels. This paper will explain what needs to happen for CFD to replace wind tunnels. Ultimately, we anticipate the reader will come to the same conclusion that we have drawn: both WTT and CFD will continue to play important roles in building and infrastructure design. The most pressing challenge for the design and engineering community is to understand the strengths and limitations of each tool so that they can leverage and exploit the benefits that each offers while adhering to our moral and professional obligation to hold paramount the safety, health, and welfare of the public.

  • 본 연구에서는 GIS와 CFD 모델을 이용하여 풍속과 풍향이 건물 화재에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 이를 위해, 2020년 10월 8일 울산의 한 아파트에서 발생한 화재 사고에 대한 수치 실험을 수행하였고, 현실적인 기상 조건을 반영하기 위하여 국지기상예보시스템(LDAPS)의 바람과 온위 자료를 초기·경계 자료로 사용하였다. 먼저, 현실적인 경계 조건을 사용하여 두 가지 수치 실험을 수행하였다(규준 실험에서는 건물 화재를 고려하고, 다른 실험에서는 건물 화재를 제외하고는 규준 실험과 동일한 기상 조건 이용). 그런 다음, 규준 실험과 유입 풍속과 방향이 다른 4개의 수치 실험을 추가로 수행하였다. 수치 실험 결과, 발화 지점이 건물 풍상측에 위치할 때에는 화재로 인한 강한 상승 기류가 건물 지붕과 풍하측 지역에 영향을 미쳤다. 또한, 대피층(15층)은 건물 풍상 측 벽면의 화재를 풍하측으로 확산시키는 역할을 했다. 유입 풍속이 약할수록 발화점 주변으로의 화재가 좁게 확산되었지만 건물 위로 화염이 도달하는 고도는 상승했다. 유입 풍향이 반대인 경우, 발화 지점이 풍하측에 위치할 때에는 화염이 건물 풍상 측으로 확산되지 않았다. 본 연구 결과는 풍속과 풍향이 화재가 발생한 건물 주변의 흐름과 온도(화염) 분포에 중요하다는 것을 보여준다.

  • 본 연구에서는 너클 라인이 다수 존재하면서 안팎 형상이 비대칭으로 설계된 특이점을 갖는 쌍동선의 자항성능을 예측하기 위해 CFD 해석을 수행하였고, 해석 기법에 따른 차이를 파악하기 위해 MRF(Moving Reference Frame) 기법과 SDM(Sliding Mesh) 기법을 적용하였다. MRF 기법을 적용한 경우에는 time step당 프로펠러를 1˚ 회전시켰고, SDM 기법의 경우 10˚, 5˚, 1˚씩 회전시키며 각 기법별 예측된 자항성능을 비교하였다. 자항점 추정을 위한 몇 가지 프로펠러 회전수에서의 해석 결과 중 프로펠러의 토크는 기법에 따른 차이가 거의 없었지만 추력 및 선체가 받는 저항은 MRF 기법보다는 SDM 기법을 적용했을 때 더 낮게, SDM 기법의 time step당 프로펠러 회전각이 작을수록 높게 계산되었다. 선형 내삽을 통해 추정된 자항점의 프로펠러 회전수, 추력, 토크와 실선 확장법을 사용해 추정된 실선의 전달동력, 반류 계수, 추력 감소 계수 및 프로펠러 회전수도 동일한 경향을 보였으며, 대부분의 자항효율은 반대의 경향을 보였다. 프로펠러 후류의 경우 MRF 기법을 적용했을 때 정확도가 떨어졌고, SDM 기법의 time step당 프로펠러 회전각에 따라 표현되는 후류의 차이는 거의 없었다.

  • Among many factors to be considered for higher safety level requirements, the hull stability in intact and damaged conditions in seaways is of utmost importance. Since the assessment of a damaged ship is complicated due to the highly non-linear behavior, it is widely acknowledged that computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods are one of the most feasible approaches. Although many research activities are being reported on the damaged ship stability recently, most of them are not designed for validation of CFD studies. In this study, well-designed model tests were performed to build a CFD validation database, which is essential in developing better CFD methods for the damage stability assessment. The geometry of the damaged compartment and test conditions were determined based on preliminary CFD simulations. Free roll decay tests in calm water with both intact and damaged ships were performed and the roll motion characteristics were compared. The damaged ship showed a larger roll damping coefficient and more rapid decrease of roll amplitude than the intact ship. The primary reason of these efforts can be explained by the movement of the flooded water.

  • The numerical simulations were conducted to investigate the thermal-fluid phenomena occurred inside the experimental apparatus during a PCCS, used to remove heat released in accidents from a containment of light water nuclear power plant, operation. Numerical simulations of the flow and heat transfer caused by wall condensation inside the containment simulation vessel (CSV), which equipped with 18 vertical heat exchanger tubes, were conducted using the commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software ANSYS-CFX. Shear stress transport (SST) and the wall condensation model were used for turbulence closure and wall condensation, respectively. The simulation using the actual size of the apparatus. However, rather than simulating the whole experimental apparatus in consideration of the experimental cases, calculation resources, and calculation time, the simulation model was prepared only in CSV. Selective simulation was conducted to verify the effects of non-condensable gas(NC gas) concentration, CSV internal pressure, and wall sub-cooling conditions. First, as a result of the internal flow of CSV, it was observed that downward flow due to condensation occurred surface of the vertical tube and upward flow occurred in the distant place. Natural convection occurred actively around the heat exchanger tube. Due to this rising and falling internal flow, natural circulation occurred actively around the heat exchanger tubes. Next, in order to check the performance of built-in condensation model using according to the non-condensable gas concentration, CSV internal flow and wall sub-cooling, the heat flux values were compared with the experimental results. On average, the results were underestimated with and error of about 25%. In addition, the influence of CSV internal pressure and wall sub-cooling was small, but when the condensate was highly generated due to the low non-condensable gas concentration, the error was large compared to the experimental values. This is considered to be due to the nature of the condensation model of the CFX code. However, in spite of the limitations of CFD, it is valid to use the built-in condensation model of CFD for PCCS performance prediction from a conservative perspective.

  • 액체가 부분적으로 채워져 있는 용기를 고속으로 이송시키면 슬로싱이 발생하므로 신속한 이송 및 조정 안정성을 위해 슬로싱을 억제할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 사각용기를 수평방향으로 이송시킬 때 삼각형 속도 프로파일의 가속도 크기와 가감속 시간이 슬로싱에 미치는 영향을 수치해석적으로 연구하였다. 선행연구에서는 슬로싱의 1차 모드만을 고려하여 용기의 가감속 시간이 1차 고유 주기와 일치할 때 슬로싱이 상당히 억제됨을 보고한 바 있다. 반면 본 연구에서는 CFD 해석을 통해 슬로싱이 최소가 되는 가감속 시간을 찾고, 1차 모드 이외에 고차 모드를 함께 고려하여 이를 설명하였다. 또한, 질량과 스프링에 기반한 등가 모델을 이용한 해석을 수행하고 CFD 결과와 비교함으로써, 등가 모델의 정확성을 평가하였다.
