In this paper, a study of performance improvement for a centrifugal vertical pump having specific speed of 330 is introduced. The existing model has high efficiency but needs better NPSH required performance. Such that new pump model is designed to obtain larger suction specific speed. 6 design parameters considered to affect pump performance are selected for impeller design. Key design parameters are investigated using by design of experiments and CFD, and impeller inlet diameter is increased to get better suction performance. The amount of inlet diameter increase is determined by using cavitation analysis. The results show that new design model has higher efficiency and better NPSH required performance than the existing model.

When a ship is damaged and flooded, the motion of the damaged ship is significantly influenced by the flooding water dynamics. The flooding water in the damaged ship has been treated as a lumped mass under the quasi-static assumption in most of previous researches. To calculate the motion of damaged ship rigorously, it is necessary to analyze the coupled dynamics of flooding water. In this study, a series of numerical and experimental studies is conducted for the damaged part of ITTC RORO passenger. FLOW3D is used for investigating the feasibility of the state of the art CFD technique. An applicability of the coupled motion analysis of damaged ships can be confirmed by agreement between the numerical results and the model experiments. A CFD technique is considered for the numerical modeling of the dynamics of flooding water.

JAEA started the LSTF experiments in 1985 for the fourth stage of the ROSA Program (ROSA-IV) for the LWR thermal-hydraulic safety research to identify and investigate the thermal-hydraulic phenomena and to confirm the effectiveness of ECCS during small-break LOCAs and operational transients. The LSTF experiments are underway for the ROSA-V Program and the OECD/NEA ROSA Project that intends to resolve issues in thermal-hydraulic analyses relevant to LWR safety. Six types of the LSTF experiments have been done for both the system integral and separate-effect experiments among international members from 14 countries. Results of four experiments for the ROSA Project are briefly presented with analysis by a best-estimate (BE) code and a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code to illustrate the capability of the LSTF and codes to simulate the thermal-hydraulic phenomena that may appear during SBLOCAs and transients. The thermal-hydraulic phenomena dealt with are coolant mixing and temperature stratification, water hammer up to high system pressure, natural circulation under high core power condition, and non-condensable gas effect during asymmetric SG depressurization as an AM action.

In this study, the heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics of a condenser for a refrigerator are analyzed with the numerical method. The main objective of the study is to obtain basic data in order to develop a new type of condenser focused on an influence of thermal resistance of air side and thermal contact resistance on the heat transfer performance. The CFD technique was used for whole study, and experiments were performed in order to verify the reliability of the numerical analysis and predict the thermal contact resistance. In this study, a heat exchanger sample was made of a part of condenser to make the experimental and numerical analysis simple and efficient. Water was used for the inner working fluid of the heat exchanger, and an experimental apparatus was composed concisely. A heat exchanger sample of tube type was used to verify the reliability of numerical analysis, and a heat exchanger of fin and tube type was used to predict the ratio of thermal contact resistance to the overall thermal resistance.

The Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model is a method of studying the flow phenomenon of fluid using a computer and finding partial differential equations that dominate processes such as heat dispersion through numerical analysis. Through CFD, a lot of information about flow disorders such as speed, pressure, density, and concentration can be obtained, and it is used in various fields from energy and aircraft design to weather prediction and environmental modeling. The simulation used for fluid analysis in this study utilized Gexcon's (FLACS) CODE, such as Norway, through overseas journals, for the accuracy of the analysis results through many experiments. It was analyzed that a technology for treating two or more catalysts with physical properties under low-temperature atmospheric pressure conditions could not be found in the prior art. Therefore, it would be desirable to establish a continuous plan by reinforcing data that can prove the effectiveness of producing efficient synthetic oil (renewable oil) through the application that pyrolysis under low-temperature and atmospheric pressure conditions.

갱내환기는 지하광산 안전성에 직접적인 영향을 미친다. 갱내환기는 정상시에는 작업공간내 유해물질의 희석을 위한 충분한 량의 급기를 통하여 쾌적한 환경을 유지하는 것이 목적이나 갱내화재와 같은 비상시에는 화재의 확산제어와 구조활동의 지원을 목적으로 한다. 본 연구를 통하여 작업공간 국부환기 뿐만 아니라 화재연 제어를 위한 방재팬을 개발하였다. 방재팬은 풍관없이 가동되며 작업공간내 유해물질의 희석 및 배기 기능을 갖추고 있으며 동시에 화재시 화재연 배기를 목적으로 한다. 본 논문은 개발된 방재팬과 기존 국부팬의 연결 운전을 통한 화재연의 배기효율 연구가 목적이다. 일련의 현장 실험 및 CFD분석을 통하여 맹갱도 작업공간내 방재팬의 화재연 배기효율을 분석하였으며 이를 위하여 SF6 추적가스를 이용한 공간내 기류 및 유해물질 유동을 검토하였다. 대단면 석회석 광산에서 수행한 현장실험과 CFD분석 결과를 비교한 결과, 갱내에서 가장 리스크가 큰 맹갱도 굴진 작업장에서 기존 국부팬 1대와 조합 운전하는 경우, 팬의 설치 위치 및 운전모드의 적절한 선택시에 효율적인 화재연 배기가 가능함을 보였다. 또한 CFD분석을 통하여 벤츄리효과에 의한 배기효율도 확인할 수 있었다. 팬 설치 위치 및 운전모드가 배기효율을 결정하는 가장 중요한 변수임을 보였다.

The Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes(RANS) analysis of the 3-D steady flow around the NREL Phase VI horizontal axis wind turbine(HAWT) rotor was performed. The CFD analysis results were compared with experimental data at several different wind speeds. The present CFD model shows good agreements with the experiments both at low wind speed which formed well-attache flow mostly on the upper surface of the blade, and at high wind speed which blade surface flow completely separated. However, some discrepancy occurs at the relatively high wind speeds where mixed attached and separated flow formed on the suction surface of the blade. It seems that the discrepancy is related to the onset of stall phenomena and consequently separation prediction capability of the current turbulence model. It is also found that strong span-wise flow occurs in stalled area due to the centrifugal force generated by rotation of the turbine rotor and it prevents abrupt reduction of normal force for higher wind speed than the designed value.

대부분의 가연성가스의 누출 및 화재/폭발 등의 실험은 큰 위험성이 있으며 실험을 진행할 수 있는 부지 선정에 큰 어려움이 있어 가급적 전산유동해석(CFD) 등의 간접적 방법을 많이 활용하였다. 그러나 2016년 10일 강원도 영월군에 에너지안전실증연구센터가 개소함에 따라 대규모/고압/초저온 등의 실험 뿐아니라 소규모 가연성 가스의 누출 및 검지 실험이 가능하게 되어 본 실험을 계획하였다. 본 실험에서는 가스센서를 교정하고 가스가 누출될 공간에 배치 후 LP가스를 누출시켜 가스센서에 검지된 값을 Contour map으로 가시화하였다. 또한 동일 조건으로 해석한 전산유동해석 결과값과 비교하여 LEL 25% 값의 실제 누출(28s, 최대 3.7m)의 차이점에 대해 분석하였다.

A numerical program based on computational fluid dynamics has been developed to simulate characteristics of an EHD induction micropump. The ambiguity of boundary conditions was removed by adopting an equation formulated for electric potential as the dependent variable. The calculations show that the dependency of frequency agrees well with the experiments and the previous analysis. The instability, caused by backflows, is getting stronger as the channel depth increases, which is consistent with experiments. The present study reveals that it is due to the limit in the penetration depth which the electric field can affect. Despite the disadvantage of large channel depth, there is a certain optimal depth for the maximum flow rate.
