  • Recently, various-shaped coastal structures have been studied and developed. Among them, the submerged breakwater became generally known as a more effective structure than other structures, bemuse it not only serves its original function, but also has the ability to preserve the coastal environment. Most previous investigations have been focused on the wave deformation and energy dissipation due to submerged breakwater, but less interest was given to their internal properties and dynamic behavior of the seabed foundation under wave loadings. In this study, a direct numerical simulation (DNS) is newly proposed to study the dynamic interaction between a permeable submerged breakwater aver a sand seabed and nonlinear waves, including wave breaking. The accuracy of the model is checked by comparing the numerical solution with the existing experimental data related to wave $\cdot$ permeable submerged breakwater $\cdot$ seabed interaction, and showed fairly nice agreement between them. From the numerical results, based on the newly proposed numerical model, the properties of the wave-induced pore water pressure and the flow in the seabed foundation are studied. In relation to their internal properties, the stability oj the permeable submerged breakwater is discussed.

  • In this study, a CFD methodology is employed to address the problem of the prediction of the flow in a T-junction. An Unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) approach has been selected for its low computational cost. Moreover, Unsteady Reynolds Navier-Stokes methodologies do not need complex boundary formulations for the inlet and the outlet such as those required when using Large Eddy Simulation (LES) or Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS). The results are compared with experimental data and an LES calculation. In the past, URANS has been tried on T-junctions with mixed results. The biggest limit observed was the underestimation of the oscillatory behavior of the temperature. In the present work, we propose a comprehensive approach able to correctly reproduce the root mean square (RMS) of the temperature directly downstream of the T-junction for cases where buoyancy is not present.

  • This study investigates the effectiveness of using a plasma actuator for active control of turbulent flow around a finite square cylinder. The primary objective is to analyze the impact of plasma actuators on flow separation and wake region characteristics, which are critical for reducing drag and suppressing vortex-induced vibrations. Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) was employed to explore the flow dynamics at various operational parameters, including different actuation frequencies and voltages. The proposed methodology employs a neural network trained using the Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) algorithm to determine optimal control policies for plasma actuators. This network is integrated with a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solver for real-time control. Results indicate that this deep reinforcement learning (DRL)-based strategy outperforms existing methods in controlling flow, demonstrating robustness and adaptability across various flow conditions, which highlights its potential for practical applications.

  • The turbulent flow characteristics in the channel flow are investigated using large eddy simulation(LES) of FDS code, built in NIST(USA), in which the near-wall flow is solved by Werner-Wengle wall function. The periodic flow condition is applied in streamwise direction to get the fully developed turbulent flow and symmetric condition is applied in lateral direction. The height of the channel is H=1m, and the length of the channel is 6H, and the lateral length is H. The total grid is $32{\times}32{\times}32$ and $y^+$ is kept above 11 to fulfill the near-wall flow requirement. The Smagorinsky model is used to solve the sub-grid scale stress. Smagorinsky constant $C_s$ is 0.2(default in FDS). Three cases of Reynolds number(10,700, 26,000, 49,000.), based on the channel height, are analyzed. The simulated results are compared with direct numerical simulation(DNS) and particle image velocimetry(PIV) experimental data. The linear low-Re eddy viscosity model of Launder & Sharma and non-linear low-Re eddy viscosity model of Abe-Jang-Leschziner are utilized to compare the results with LES of FDS. Reynolds normal stresses, Reynolds shear stresses, turbulent kinetic energys and mean velocity flows are well compared with DNS and PIV data.

  • The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficiency and the prediction accuracy of developed large eddy simulation (LES) program for complex turbulent flows, such as recirculating and swirling flows. To save the computational cost, a Beowulf cluster system consisting 16 processors was constructed. The flows in backward-facing step and dump combustor were examined as representative recirculating and swirling flows. Firstly, a direct numerical simulation (DNS) for laminar backward-facing step flows was previously conducted to validate the overall performance of program. Then LES was carried out for turbulent backward-facing step flows. The results of laminar flow showed a qualitative and quantitative agreement between simulations and experiments. The simulations of the turbulent flow also showed reasonable results. Secondly, LES results for non-swirling and swirling flows in a dump combustor were compared with the results of Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) using standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ model. The results show that LES has a better performance in predicting the mean axial and azimuthal velocities, comer recirculation zone (CRZ) and center toroidal recirculation zone (CTRZ) than those of RANS. Finally, it was examined the capability of LES for the description of unsteady phenomena.

  • The zone conditional two-fluid equations are derived and validated against DNS database of a premixed turbulent flame. The conditional statistics of major flow variables are investigated to understand the mechanism of flame generated turbulence. The flow field in burned zone shows substantially increased turbulent kinetic energy, which is highly anisotropic due to reaction kinematics across thin f1amelets. The transverse component may be larger than the axial component for a distributed pdf of the flamelet orientation angle, while the opposite occurs due to redistribution of turbulent kinetic energy and flamelet orientation normal to the flow at the end of a flame brush. The major source or sink terms of turbulent kinetic energy are the interfacial transfer by the mean reaction rate and the work terms by fluctuating pressure and velocity on a flame surface. Ad hoc modeling of some interfacial terms may be required for further application of the two-fluid model in turbulent combustion simulations.

  • A homogeneous flow field including more than 2000 spherical particles was directly simulated. Particles are settling by gravity with the Reynolds number ranging from 50 to 300, based on diameter and slip velocity. Particular attention was focused on the distribution of particles. The Reynolds-number dependence, influences of particle rotation and loading ratio, and the dynamics of particle clusters are discussed. In the higher Reynolds number case, the wake attraction causes particle clusters and the average drag coefficient decreases significantly. Non-rotating particles maintain cluster structure and rotating ones moves randomly in the horizontal direction. It is because of the difference in the direction of the lift force.

  • Steady flow of an ER (electro-rheological) fluid in a two-dimensional electrode channel is studied by using FEM. Hydrodynamic interactions between the particles and the fluid are calculated by solving the Navier-Stokes equation combined with the equation of motion for each particle, where the multi-body electrostatic interaction is described by using point-dipole model. Motion of the particles in the ER fluid is elucidated in conjunction with the mechanisms of the flow resistance and the increase of viscosity. The ER effects have been studied by varying the Mason number and volume fraction of particles. These parameters have an influence on the formation of the chains resulting in the changes of the fluid velocity and the effective viscosity of ER fluids.

  • 중력류 또는 밀도류는 주변 유체에 비해 상대적으로 밀도가 큰 유체가 밀도차에 의한 추진력으로 흐르는 것이다. 중력류의 수치모델링에는 두 가지 어려움이 있다. 즉, 적합한 지배방정식을 구성하여 적용하는 것 그리고 난류의 영향을 합리적으로 반영하는 것이다. 기존 중력류 해석을 위한 지배방정식들은 유체의 연속방정식과 운동량 방정식 그리고 밀도 또는 농도의 이송방정식을 조합하여 구성된다. 이들 지배방정식을 이용한 연구들은 대부분 두 유체 사이의 밀도차가 충분히 작아서 밀도 변동(variations)의 영향은 오로지 부력항에서만 유지된다는 Boussinesq 근사에 근거를 둔다. 그리고 이송방정식에서 밀도 또는 농도의 확산계수을 점성계수의 함수로 표현하기 위해서 Schmidt 수를 이용한다. 수치모델링에서 Schimdt 수는 상수값을 적용하지만, 이 값은 밀도의 연직방향 경사에 근거한 부력빈도(buoyancy frequency)와 난류량의 따라 큰 차이를 보이는 것으로 알려져있다. 한편, 표준 통계학적 난류모델과 벽함수를 적용한 수치모델링은 초기 중력에 의해서 무너지는(slumping) 단계를 넘어 관성력으로 추진되는 단계와 점성 효과가 지배적인 단계에서는 정확도에 현저히 낮아지기 때문에 대부분 큰와모의(large-eddy simulation, LES) 또는 DNS(direct numerical simulation)수준의 고해상도(high-resolution) 해석기법을 적용하여 공학적인 문제에 적용하는 데는 한계가 있다. 이 연구에서는 Boussinesq 근사와 Schmidt 수를 사용하지 않으며, LES 보다 적용이 용이한 DES (detached-eddy simulation)기법을 조합한 다상흐름 수치모델을 적용하여 중력류를 해석을 시도하였다. 수치해석결과를 실험값과 함께 기존 수치모델링 기법으로 구한 수치해와 비교분석하여 이 연구에서 개발 및 적용된 수치모델링 기법의 적용성을 평가한다.

  • Erosion-corrosion in a pipe system often occurs at fittings, valves, and weld beads where flow separation and reattachment yield high turbulence intensity. Thus identifying their correlations would be the first step towards resolving the erosion-corrosion problems associated with industrial applications. Bremhorst of the Univ. of Queensland, Australia, proposed that a rotating cylinder with surface roughness (two backward-facing steps periodically mounted on a circular cylinder) be an economical and tractable tool which can generate extreme flow conditions for erosion-corrosion study. In this work, DNS has been carried out for turbulent flows around the same rotating cylinder as his experimental apparatus. Our result shows that a region of intense turbulence intensity and high wall-shear stress fluctuation is formed along the cylinder surface in the recirculating region behind the step, where high mass-transfer capacity is also experimentally observed. Since corrosion is mass-transfer controlled, our finding sheds light on the direction of future corrosion research.
