This paper presents the state of the art of the CFD applications to vegetated open-channel flows. First, important aspects of the physics of vegetated flows found through the laboratory experiments are briefly reviewed. Then, previous CFD applications to one-dimensional vertical structure, partly-vegetated flows, compound open-channel flows with floodplain vegetation, and fully three-dimensional numerical simulations are reviewed. Finally, topics for further researches such as relationship between the resistance and flexural rigidity, additional drag due to foliages, and melting the experience of CFD with the depth-averaged modeling, are suggested.

The Lago Sofia conglomerates encased in the Cretaceous Cerro Toro Formation, southern Chile, represent a gigantic submarine channel system developed along a foredeep trough. The channel system consists of several tributaries along the trough margin and a trunk channel along the trough axis. Voluminous debris flows were generated ubiquitously along the tract of the submarine channel mainly by the failure of nearby channel banks or slopes. The flows transformed immediately into multiphase flows and resulted in very thick-bedded mass-flow deposits with a peculiar structure sequence. The mass-flow deposits commonly overlie fluted or grooved surfaces and consist of a lower division of clast-supported and imbricated pebble-cobble conglomerate with common basal inverse grading, and an upper division of clast- to matrix-supported and disorganized pebble conglomerate or pebbly mudstone with abundant intraformational clasts. The structure sequence suggests a temporal succession of a turbidity current, a bipartite hyperconcentrapted flow with active clast collisions near the flow base, and a cohesive debris flow probably with a rigid plug. The multiphase flow is interpreted to have resulted from transformation of clast-rich but cohesive debris flows. Cohesive debris flows appear to transform more easily into dilute flow types in subaqueous environments because they are apt to hydroplane. This is in contrast to the flow transitions in subaerial environments where noncohesive debris flows are dominant and difficult to hydroplane.

본 연구에서는 수치모의를 통하여 전단면 식생 수로에서 와도의 생성을 분석하였다. 지배방정식에서 난류 폐합을 위해 레이놀즈응력모형을 이용하였다. 거친 하상-매끄러운 측벽 및 매끄러운 하상-거친 측벽을 갖는 개수로 흐름을 수치모의하여 서로 다른 형태의 이차흐름 구조가 형성되는 것을 확인하였다. 즉, 거친 하상 조건에서는 자유수면 이차흐름의 규모가 감소되고, 거친 측벽 조건에서는 자유수면 이차흐름의 구조가 더 커지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 전단면 식생 수로를 수치모의하여 수심 크기의 바닥 이차흐름이 형성되고, 식생 밀도가 증가함에 따라 자유수면 이차흐름이 점차 사라지는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 이차흐름 생성에 중요한 역할을 하는 난류의 비등방성 및 레이놀즈응력 분포를 식생밀도에 따라 살펴보았다. 한편, 와도 방정식을 분석한 결과, 비식생 수로의 경우 벽 및 수면 경계 근처에서는 난류 비등방성에 의한 생성항이, 경계와 떨어진 곳에서는 레이놀즈응력에 의한 생성항이 와도 생성에 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 식생 수로에서는 이러한 특성이 사라지는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 비식생 수로에서는 바닥과 수면에서의 와도 생성이 강하게 발생되지만, 식생 수로에서는 바닥과 식생 높이에서 와도 생성이 크게 발생되는 것으로 나타났다.

측벽이 존재하는 개수로 난류흐름에 대한 DNS 자료를 사용하여 레이놀즈 전단응력 및 이차흐름의 생성메커니즘을 규명하였다. 측벽 부근에서 이차흐름의 양상을 보면, 상부 및 하부 모서리 부근에서는 측벽을 향해 침투되는 이차흐름이 형성된 반면, 그 외의 영역에서는 수로 중앙을 향해 분출하는 이차흐름이 형성된 것으로 나타났다. 측벽 부근에서 레이놀즈 전단응력의 분포를 산정하였으며, 고유구조와 연계하여 분석하였다. 사분면 해석에서 측벽을 향해 침투되는 이차흐름이 생성된 영역에서는 쓸기현상이 지배적인 반면, 측벽으로부터 분출되는 이차흐름이 형성된 영역에서는 분출현상이 지배적인 것으로 나타났다. 또한 조건부 사분면 해석을 통해 레이놀즈 전단응력의 생성 및 이차흐름의 양상이 지배적인 고유구조의 방향성에 의해 결정된다는 것을 확인하였다.

Heat transfer characteristics in a narrow rectangular channel are experimentally investigated for upward and downward flows. The experimental data obtained are compared with existing data and predictions by many correlations. Based on the observations, there are differences from others: (1) there are no different heat transfer characteristics between upward and downward flows, (2) most of the existing correlations under-estimate heat transfer characteristics, and (3) existing correlations do not predict the high heat transfer in the entrance region for a wide range of Re. In addition, there are a few heat transfer correlations applicable to narrow rectangular channels. Therefore, a new set of correlations is proposed with and without consideration of the entrance region. Without consideration of the entrance region, heat transfer characteristics are expressed as a function of Re and Pr for turbulent flows, and as a function of Gz for laminar flows. The correlation proposed for turbulent and laminar flows has errors of ${\pm}18.25$ and ${\pm}13.62%$, respectively. With consideration of the entrance region, the heat transfer characteristics are expressed as a function of Re, Pr, and $z^*$ for both laminar and turbulent flows. The correlation for turbulent and laminar flows has errors of ${\pm}19.5$ and ${\pm}22.0%$, respectively.

본 논문은 식생된 개수로 흐름에서 난류의 비등방성이 평균유속 및 난류구조에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위한 수치모의 연구이다. 비등방성 난류모형인 레이놀즈응력모형을 이용하여 식생이 없는 일반 개수로 흐름과 침수 및 정수식생된 개수로 흐름에서의 평균유속 및 난류구조를 수치모의하였다. 수치모의 결과를 기존의 실험결과 및 k-$\epsilon$ 모형과 응력대수식모형에 의한 계산 결과와 비교하였다. 식생이 없는 일반 개수로 흐름과 정수식생된 개수로 흐름에서의 평균유속과 레이놀즈응력을 계산한 결과 등방성 및 비등방성 난류모형에 의한 해석 결과의 차이가 거의 나타나지 않았다. 즉, 난류의 비등방성의 영향이 매우 작은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 자유수면 및 바닥 근처에서 발생되는 난류의 감쇠효과에 의한 난류의 비등방성은 레이놀즈응력이 가장 잘 예측하는 것으로 나타났다. 침수식생된 개수로 흐름의 경우 식생높이 부근에서 난류의 비등방성이 강하게 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 계산된 평균유속 및 난류구조는 레이놀즈응력모형이 다른 모형 보다 가장 정확한 예측을 수행하였으며, 등방성 모형인 k-$\epsilon$ 모형은 식생높이 보다 높은 영역에서 평균유속 및 난류강도를 각각 과대 및 과소 예측하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 계산된 결과를 이용하여 식생된 개수로 흐름에서의 부유사량을 산정한 결과 등방성 난류모형이 부유사량을 과소 산정하는 것으로 나타났다.

A 2D-LDV system was employed to investigate the flow field characteristics in fully developed drag reducing turbulent channel flows. The additive used in this study was Habon-G which showed splendid drag reduction effect and minimum mechanical degradation trend in the closed flow circulation loop. In order to have better understanding of the drag reduction mechanism, the instantaneous velocities were carefully measured under various experimental conditions and the flow characteristics including time-averaged velocity, turbulent intensity and Reynolds shear stresses were carefully assessed. The time-averaged velocity profiles of surfactant flows showed more parabolic shape(typically shown in a laminar flow) together with significant suppression of turbulent production, yielding the shear induced micelle structure orienting in the flow direction due to its isotropic characteristics. Especially it was observed that the maximum intensity for drag reducing flows was shifted away from the wall and that the streamwise and normal turbulent intensities were strongly altered. This phenomenon strongly suggests that the viscous sublayer becomes thicker with addition of surfactant. Turbulent momentum transport was drastically suppressed across the whole drag reducing channel flow.

Direct numerical simulations of turbulent channel flows with moving wall conditions on the top wall are performed to examine the effects of the moving wall on the turbulent characteristics. The moving wall velocity only applied to the top wall with the opposite direction to the main flow is systematically varied to reveal the sustained-mechanism for turbulence. The turbulence statistics for the Couette-Poiseuille flow, such as mean velocity, root mean square of the velocity fluctuations, Reynolds shear stress and pre-multiplied energy spectra of the velocity fluctuations, are compared with those of canonical turbulent channel flows. The comparison suggests that although the turbulent activity on the top wall increases with increasing the Reynolds number, that on the bottom wall decreases, contrary to the previous finding for the canonical turbulent channel flows. The increase of the turbulent energy on the top wall is attributed to not only the increase of the Reynolds number but also elongation of the logarithmic layer due to increase of the wall layer on the top wall. However, because the logarithmic layer is shortened on the bottom wall due to the decrease of the wall layer, the turbulence energy on the bottom wall decreases despite of the increase of the Reynolds number.

We are concerned with a free boundary problem for the 2D Stokes channel flows, which determines the profile of the wing for the channel, so that the given traction force is to be distributed along the wing of the channel. Using the domain embedding technique, the free boundary problem is transferred into the shape optimization problem through the compliant formulation by releasing the traction condition along the variable boundary. The justification of the formulation will be discussed.
