In the ship design process, ship motion and propulsion performance in sea waves became very important issues. Especially, prediction of ship propulsion performance during real operation is an important challenge to ship owners for economic operation in terms of fuel consumption and route-time evaluation. Therefore, it should be considered in the early design stages of the ship. It is thought that the averaged value and fluctuation of effective inflow velocity to the propeller have a great effect on the propulsion performance in waves. However, even for the nominal velocity distribution, very few results have been presented due to some technical difficulties in experiments. In this study, flow measurements near the propeller plane using a stereo PIV system were performed. Phase-averaged flow fields on the propeller plane of a KVLCC2 model ship in waves were measured in the towing tank by using the stereo PIV system and a phase synchronizer with heave motion. The experiment was carried out at fully loaded condition with making surge, heave and pitch motions free at a forward speed corresponding to Fr=0.142 (Re=2.55×106) in various head waves and calm water condition. The phase averaged nominal velocity fields obtained from the measurements are discussed with respect to effects of wave orbital velocity and ship motion. The low velocity region is affected by pressure gradient and ship motion.

A feasibility study of thrust control of hybrid propulsion system for lunar exploration is presented. The thrust control experiments were performed by controlling the oxidizer mass flow rate where the thrust modulation is carried by using a ball valve and a stepping motor. The gaseous oxygen (GOX) and the HDPE (High Density PolyEthylene) were used for the oxidizer and solid fuel, respectively. It was found that the thrust levels were stable without much fluctuation during the modulation period, and that the thrust was exactly controlled with target thrust modulation ratio of 53% and 32%.

하천은 하천에 서식하는 동 식물뿐만 아니라 인간에게 매우 중요한 역할을 하고 있다. 그러나 인간의 활동과 산업화에 의해 많은 인위적인 교란을 받고 있으며, 대표적으로 수자원의 이용/발전에 의해 건설된 댐과 저수지를 예로 들 수 있다. 이러한 댐과 저수지는 하천 상 하류간의 생태학적 단절을 초래하여 생물 서식처에 직접적인 영향을 미치고 있으며, 하류하천에 서식하는 생물들에 대한 영향을 고려하지 않고 건설되는 실정이다. 특히, 발전방류로 인한 급격한 유량의 변화와 온도의 변화는 댐 하류하천의 수생태계에 심각한 영향을 미친다고 알려져 있다. 특히, 댐에서의 온도 차이를 가지는 방류로 인해 국내에서의 운문댐, 보령댐 등 일부 댐에서는 벼 수확량 감소사례가 발생하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 댐 발전방류로 인한 수온의 변동이 하류하천에 미치는 영향을 파악하였다. 발전방류로 인한 하류하천의 수리분석과 수온 변화를 모의하기 위하여 CMS-Flow 모형을 사용하였다. 괴산댐 하류에 위치한 달천의 2.3 km구간을 대상구간으로 하였으며, 달천 상류에 위치한 괴산댐은 빈번하게 발전방류를 발생시키고 있다. 발전방류로 인한 수온의 변동이 하류하천에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위하여 1년 동안의 발전방류 조건에 대하여 모의를 수행하였다. 봄, 여름, 가을, 겨울 총 4계절로 구분하여 발전방류로 인한 수온의 변동이 미치는 범위를 거리에 따라 분석하였을 때, 봄은 1.73 km, 여름은 1.92 km, 가을은 1.74 km, 겨울은 2.01 km까지 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 방류되는 수온과 하류하천의 수온 차이가 크게 발생하는 여름과 겨울의 경우가 봄과 가을에 비해 영향을 미치는 범위가 큰 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통하여 댐 발전방류로 인한 하류하천의 수온 변화를 분석함으로써, 댐 하류하천에서 서식하는 생물들을 고려한 댐 운용 계획을 수립하는데 중요한 기초자료가 될 것으로 기대된다.

최근 이상기후로 인한 국지성 호우의 발생빈도 및 강우강도의 증가는 하천횡단구조물의 안정성에 문제가 되고 있다. 하천 횡단구조물(보, 물받이공 등)의 파괴는 국부 세굴(bed scour), 파이핑(piping), 구조물 본체의 불안정성 등의 원인으로 발생되고 있으며, 이 중에서 구조물 본체의 불안정성은 도수(hydraulic jump)로 인한 압력변이도 주요 원인이 될 수 있다 (Bower and Toso, 1988; Kazemi, F. et al., 2016). 그러나, 현재 직접적인 파괴 원인인 세굴 등에 대한 연구에 비해 압력변이로 인한 구조물의 파괴원인을 분석하는 연구는 미비한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 흐름조건을 발생시켜, 하천횡단구조물 주변의 도수특성 및 도수로 인한 압력변이에 대하여 수리실험 및 수치모의를 통하여 검토하고자 한다. 수리실험에 사용하는 수로는 길이 10 m, 폭 0.3 m, 높이 0.4 m이며 상류로부터 2.5 m 떨어진 곳에 보(weir)를 설치하였다. 실험조건은 다양한 흐름조건에 따른 도수 발생을 검토하고자 상하류 수위를 조절을 통해 Froude 수의 범위를 1 < Fr < 10로 설정하였다. 압력변이는 전압형 압력계(Model : UNIK 5000, 압력 측정 변위 : -2 ~ 5 kPa)를 사용하였으며, 보(weir) 하류단에서 2.5 cm 간격으로 천공하여 측정하였다. 또한 3차원 모형인 FLOW-3D 모형을 이용하여 실험수로를 재현하였으며, 도수 발생 위치, 도수 길이, 도수 발생 시 압력변이에 대하여 실험결과와 수치모의 결과를 비교하여 수치모형을 검증하였다. 최종적으로 Froude 수에 따른 도수특성(도수 발생위치, 도수 길이 등) 및 최대 압력변이를 무차원화 하여 나타내었다. 본 연구는 도수 발생 시 압력변이로 인한 구조물 파괴분석에 대한 기초가 되는 기본적인 연구이나, 향후에는 물받이공 길이, 두께 등 하천횡단 구조물 설계인자 도출에 선행연구로 발전할 수 있다고 판단된다.

The pressure of the mold flux acting on the meniscus shell was investigated through the coupling analysis of heat transfer in the mold and fluid flow in the flux caused by the mold oscillation. Finite element method was employed to solve the conservation equation associated with appropriate boundary conditions. As reported by previous workers, the axial pressure is positive on the negative strip time and negative on the positive strip time. A maximum pressure is predicted toward the top of the meniscus shell which has the thin shell arid a maximum value is in proportion to the relative mold oscillation velocity. The relative mold oscillation velocity was changed by the effect of meniscus level fluctuation. Therefore the pressure of the mold flux acting on the meniscus shell was different each cycle of the mold oscillation due to the irregularity of relative mold oscillation velocity.

Self-excited noise generation from laminar flames in thin annular jets of methane/air premixture has been investigated experimentally. Various flames were observed in this flow configuration, including conical shape flames, ring shape flames, steady crown shape flames, and oscillating crown shape flames. Self-excited noise with the total sound pressure level of about 70dB was generated from the oscillating crown shape flames for the equivalence ratio larger than 0.95. Sound pressure and $CH^{\ast}$ chemiluminescence were measured by using a microphone and a photomultiplier tube. The frequency of generated noise was measured as functions of equivalence ratio and premixture velocity. A frequency doubling phenomena have also been observed. The measured $CH^{\ast}$ chemiluminescence data were analyzed from which the corresponding sound pressure has been calculated. By comparing the data with those of measured ones, the noise source can be attributed to the flame front fluctuation near the edge of the oscillating crown-shape flames. The flame stability regime was influenced sensitively to the supplying air through the inner tube.

In this study, the actual energy consumption of the secondary side District Heating System (DHS) with different hot water supply temperature control methods is compared. The two methods are Outdoor Temperature Reset Control and Outdoor Temperature Predictive Control. While Outdoor Temperature Reset Control has been widely used for energy savings of the secondary side system, the results show that the Outdoor Temperature Predictive Control method saves more energy. In general, the Outdoor Temperature Predictive Control method lowers the supply temperature of hot water, and it reduces standby losses and increases the overall heat transfer value of heated spaces due to more flow into the space. During actual energy consumption monitoring, the Outdoor Temperature predictive Control method saves about 6.6% of energy when compared to the Outdoor Temperature Reset Control method. Also, it is found that at partial load condition, such as during daytime, the fluctuation of hot water supply temperature with Outdoor Temperature Reset Control is more severe than that with Outdoor Temperature Predictive Control. Thus, it proves that Outdoor Temperature Predictive Control is more stable even at partial load conditions.

In order to meet the increasing needs of the hybrid energy source system for electric vehicles, which demand bidirectional power flow capability with a wide-voltage-conversion range, a bidirectional three-level DC-DC converter and some control strategies for hybrid energy source electric vehicles are proposed. The proposed topology is synthesized from Buck and Boost three-level DC-DC topologies with a high voltage-gain and non-extreme duty cycles, and the bidirectional operation principle is analyzed. In addition, the inductor current ripple can be effectively reduced within the permitted duty cycle range by the coordinated control between the current fluctuation reduction and the non-extreme duty cycles. Furthermore, benefitting from duty cycle disturbance control, series-connected capacitor voltages can also be well balanced, even with the discrepant rise and fall time of power switches and the somewhat unequal capacitances of series-connected capacitors. Finally, experiment results of the bidirectional operations are given to verify the validity and feasibility of the proposed converter and control strategies. It is shown to be suitable for hybrid energy source electric vehicles.

In the present study, a numerical analysis on the sloshing in a tank with the harmonic motion was investigated. A VOF method was used for two-phase flows inside the sloshing tank and a source term of the momentum equation was applied for the harmonic motion. This numerical method was verified by comparing its results with the available experimental data. The sloshing in a tank causes the instability of the fluid flows and the fluctuation of the impact pressure on the tank. By these phenomena of the tank sloshing, the sloshing problems such as the failure and the noise of system can be generated. For the reduction of these sloshing problems, the various baffles such as the horizontal/vertical plate baffles and the porous baffles inside the tank are installed. With the installations of these baffles, the characteristics of the liquid behavior in the sloshing tank, the impact pressure on the wall, the amplitude of the free surface near the wall and the sloshing noise were numerically analyzed.
