  • 본 연구에서는 비정렬격자계를 사용하여 덮개 꼬리 로터의 제자리 비행에 대한 압축성, 비정성 유동을 해석하였다. 유동계산을 위한 수치적 기법으로는 셀 중심에 기초한 유한체적법과 내재적인 시간적분법을 사용하였다. 계산은 로터의 한 블레이드에 대해 수행되었으며, 블레이드와 블레이드 사이에는 주기적 경계조건을 설정하였다. 덮개가 없는 로터 형상에 대한 성능은 실험 결과와 잘 일치함을 보였다. 덮개를 포함하는 로터 형상에 대한 계산은 비교된 실험 형상의 불확실성을 고려하여 추력이 일치하는 피치각을 가지는 경우에 대해 수행하였으며, 자세한 유동은 실험결과와 잘 일치함을 확인할 수 있었다. 그 결과로부터 본 방법이 블레이드 끝단간극을 포함하는 복잡한 3차원 덮개 꼬리 로터 형상 해석에 매우 유용하게 사용될 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

  • CMBT(Curved Moving Boundary Treatment) is a newly developed scheme for the treatment of a no slip condition on the curved solid wall of moving obstacle in a flow field. In our research CMBT was used to perform LBM simulation of a flow over a moving circular cylinder to determine the flow feature and aerodynamics characteristic of the cylinder. To ascertain the applicability of CMBT on the complex shape of the obstacle, it was first simulated for the case of the flow over a fixed circular cylinder in a channel and the results were compared against the solution of Navier-Stokes equation with deforming mesh technique. The simulations were performed in a moderate range of reynolds number at each moving cylinder to identify the flow feature and aerodynamic characteristics of circular cylinder in a channel. The drag coefficients of the cylinder were calculated from the simulation results. We have numerically confirmed that the critical reynolds number for vortex shedding is ar Re=250 and the result is the same as the case of fixed cylinder. As the cylinder approaching to one wall, the 2nd vortex is developed by interacting with the wall boundary-layer vorticity. As the velocity ratio increase the third vortex are generated by interacting with the 2nd vortexes developed on the upper and lower wall boundary layer. The resultant $C_d$ decrease as reynolds number increasing and the Cd approached to a value when Re>1000.

  • Two types of aerodynamic admittance function (AAF) that have been adopted in bridge aerodynamics are addressed. The first type is based on a group of supposed relations between flutter derivatives and AAFs. In so doing, the aero-elastic properties of a section could be used to determine AAFs. It is found that the supposed relations hold only for cases when the gust frequencies are within a very low range. Predominant frequencies of long-span bridges are, however, far away from this range. In this sense, the AAFs determined this way are of little practical significance. Another type of AAFs is based on the relation between the Theodorsen circulation function and the Sears function, which holds for thin airfoil theories. It is found, however, that an obvious illogicality exists in this methodology either. In this article, a viewpoint is put forward that AAFs of bluff bridge deck sections are inherently dependent on oncoming turbulent properties. This kind of dependence is investigated with a thin plate and a double-girder bluff section via computational fluid dynamics method. Two types of wind fluctuations are used for identification of AAFs. One is turbulent wind flow while the other is harmonic. The numerical results indicate that AAFs of the thin plate agree well with the Sears AAF, and show no obvious dependence on the oncoming wind fields. In contrast, for the case of bluff double-girder section, AAFs identified from the turbulent and harmonic flows of different amplitudes differ among each other, exhibiting obvious dependence on the oncoming wind field properties.

  • Immersed boundary method (IBM) is the most effective method to overcome the disadvantage of LBM (Lattice Boltzmann Method) related to the limitation of the grid shape. IBM also make LBM possible to simulate flow over complex shape of obstacle without any treatment on the curved boundary. In the research, IBLBM was used to perform LBM simulation of a flow over a moving circular cylinder to determine the flow feature and aerodynamics characteristic of the cylinder. To ascertain the applicability of IBLBM on the moving obstacle near the wall, it was first simulated for the case of the flow over a fixed circular cylinder in a channel and the results were compared against the solution of moving cylinder in the channel using IBLBM. The simulations were performed in a moderate range of Reynolds number at each moving cylinder to identify the flow feature and aerodynamic characteristics of circular cylinder in a channel. The drag and lift coefficients of the cylinder were calculated from the simulation results. We have numerically confirmed that the critical Reynolds number for vortex shedding is Re=50 and the result is the same as the case of fixed cylinder. As the cylinder approaching to a wall (${\gamma}<2.5$), the 2nd vortex is developed by interacting with the wall boundary-layer vorticity. When the cylinder is very closed to the wall, ${\gamma}<0.6$, the cylinder acts like blockage to block the flow between the cylinder and wall so that the vortex developed on the upper cylinder elongated and time averaged lifting and drag coefficients abruptly increase.

  • 가솔린엔진의 출력제어를 위해 나비형(butterfly-type) 스로틀밸브가 응용되고 있다. 그러나 기존의 나비형 스로틀밸브는 밸브 후방에서 발생하는 강한 와류현상으로 인해 매우 큰 흡입 유로의 저항을 유발하게 된다. 이러한 유로저항은 엔진의 체적효율(volumetric efficiency)을 떨어뜨려 궁극적으로 엔진의 출력과 효율에 부정적인 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구에서는 CFD수치해석 기법을 이용하여 기존 나비형 스로틀밸브의 문제점 개선을 위해 제안한 벤투리형(venturi-type) 가변스로틀밸브(VGTV)의 공기역학적 작동특성에 관해 알아보았으며, 본 장치의 유량과 저항계수($K_L$)의 변화특성 분석을 통해 가솔린엔진의 체적효율 개선효과를 평가하는데 연구의 목적을 두고 있다. 본 연구를 통해 기존의 나비형 스로틀밸브에 비해 새롭게 제안된 벤투리형 가변스로틀밸브의 유로저항이 평균 49.0%정도 개선된다는 사실을 알 수 있었으며, 이는 엔진의 체적효율과 출력에 매우 큰 영향을 줄 것으로 기대된다.

  • In this work a multi-fidelity non-intrusive polynomial chaos (MF-NIPC) has been applied to a structural wind engineering problem in architectural design for the first time. In architectural design it is important to design structures that are safe in a range of wind directions and speeds. For this reason, the computational models used to design buildings and bridges must account for the uncertainties associated with the interaction between the structure and wind. In order to use the numerical simulations for the design, the numerical models must be validated by experi-mental data, and uncertainties contained in the experiments should also be taken into account. Uncertainty Quantifi-cation has been increasingly used for CFD simulations to consider such uncertainties. Typically, CFD simulations are computationally expensive, motivating the increased interest in multi-fidelity methods due to their ability to lev-erage limited data sets of high-fidelity data with evaluations of more computationally inexpensive models. Previous-ly, the multi-fidelity framework has been applied to CFD simulations for the purposes of optimization, rather than for the statistical assessment of candidate design. In this paper MF-NIPC method is applied to flow around a rectan-gular 5:1 cylinder, which has been thoroughly investigated for architectural design. The purpose of UQ is validation of numerical simulation results with experimental data, therefore the radius of curvature of the rectangular cylinder corners and the angle of attack are considered to be random variables, which are known to contain uncertainties when wind tunnel tests are carried out. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations are solved by a solver that employs the Finite Element Method (FEM) for two turbulence modeling approaches of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations: Unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes (URANS) and the Large Eddy simulation (LES). The results of the uncertainty analysis with CFD are compared to experimental data in terms of time-averaged pressure coefficients and bulk parameters. In addition, the accuracy and efficiency of the multi-fidelity framework is demonstrated through a comparison with the results of the high-fidelity model.

  • 전진익 항공기는 평익 항공기와 비교하였을 때 우월한 공력 특성을 갖고 있다. 그러나 전진익 항공기는 종래의 주익에 비하여 낮은 발산 속도를 갖고 있게 되고, 이는 설계 단계에서 필수적으로 고려하여야 한다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 공력탄성학적 테일러링에 대한 연구가 이루어졌다. 적층 판의 최적의 적층 배열을 찾기 위해선 반복적인 계산이 필요하고 이를 위하여 모델링이 용이하고 계산 효율성이 우수한 1차원 보 축소 해석을 수행한다. 해석을 위하여 다물체 동역학 프로그램인 DYMORE를 사용하였고 이를 해석해와 비교하였다. 또한 NACA0015 형상의 다중 셀 구조 단면을 해석하기 위하여 상용 프로그램 VABS를 사용하였고 전진익 항공기의 날개를 보다 현실적으로 해석하기 위하여 oblique 기능을 사용하였다. 공력탄성학적 테일러링을 통하여 얻은 최적의 발산 속도는 238.9m/s이고 이는 기존에 동일 중량, 단일 방향으로 적층한 날개에 비하여 42% 가량 개선된 수치이다. 하지만 공력탄성학적 테일러링이 부주의하게 적용할 경우 기존 단일 적층 날개에 비하여 오히려 감소된 발산 속도를 가질 수 있음을 확인하였다.
