A meteorological model, RAMS, and a commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model, FLUENT are combined as a one-way off-line nested modeling system, namely, RAMS/FLUENT system. The system is experimentally applied in the wind simulation over a complex terrain, with which numerical simulations of wind field over Foyeding weather station located in the northwest mountainous area of Beijing metropolis are performed. The results show that the method of combining a meteorological model and a CFD model as a modeling system is reasonable. In RAMS/FLUENT system, more realistic boundary conditions are provided for FLUENT rather than idealized vertical wind profiles, and the finite volume method (FVM) of FLUENT ensures the capability of the modeling system on describing complex terrain in the simulation. Thus, RAMS/FLUENT can provide fine-scale realistic wind data over complex terrains.

Numerical simulations have been carried out for a 138K LNG Carrier (KLNG) model ship with free surface, using WAVIS 2.0 and Fluent 6.3.26 with various $y^+$ values and different grid densities. Level-set method for free surface capturing was adopted in WAVIS, while VOF has been used in Fluent. The calculated results were compared with the experiment data. Resistance coefficient, wave pattern, wave profile along the hull surface, axial velocity contours and transverse vectors had been analyzed. When the first $y^+$ value was fixed at 60, the simulation results from both WAVIS and Fluent were improved as the number of grids increased. The convergence time of WAVIS was much shorter than that of Fluent. Furthermore, WAVIS predicted the velocity field and the wave profile along the hull surface better than Fluent. However, Fluent gave better wave patterns.

The purpose of this research is to model numerically the turbulent gas-particle flows in a rectangular chamber using Eulerian-Eulerian Method. A computer code using the ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}-Ap$ two-phase turbulence model is developed for the numerical study. This code and the Eulerian multiphase model in FLUENT were used for the numerical simulations of the two-phase flow in a rectangular chamber. The numerical results calculated by the two different turbulent gas-particle codes have shown that the ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}-Ap$ model results in a stronger diffusion of the flow momentum in the gas-particle turbulence interaction than the Eulerian multiphase model in FLUENT.

This paper assesses the two-equation turbulence models available in a commercial code, FLUENT, for heat transfer in a turbulent heated pipe flow. In case of flow under $Re_D=10,000$, Standard $\kappa-\epsilon$ and Realizable $\kappa-\epsilon$ models overpredict the Nusselt number about $20\%$ compared with the experimental correlation, and RNG $\kappa-\epsilon$ model overpredicts about $30\%$ when the two-layer zonal method is employed. When wall function method is adopted, all $\kappa-\epsilon$ models show better predictions. Standard $\kappa-\omega$ and SST $\kappa-\omega$ models have the dependency on the first grid point ($0.3). As Reynolds number becomes high, the predictions of all $\kappa-\epsilon$ and $\kappa-\omega$ models are in a good agreement with the experimental correlation.

Reburning is an efficient combustion technology to reduce nitrogen oxide by injecting hydro-carbon fuel to the downstream of the main combustion. In this paper LPG has been used not only as main fuel but also as reburn fuel and air was used as an oxidizer with 15kW swirl burner. Experimental studies have been done to evaluate effect of reburning for NOx reduction. Also to examine the effect of the amount of burnout air for complete combustion by reburn fuel on NOx reduction, test was conducted by reducing the amount of burnout air. Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulation was performed using the commercial CFD code FLUENT 6.3 to simulate experimental results and investigate the thermo-chemical characteristics. An evaluation of reaction models for swirl burner has been carried out for propane-air with two step finite-rate eddy-dissipation model in FLUENT.

도시 우수 배수 시스템에서 우수 관거는 개수로 흐름 상태로 가정하여 설계되었기 때문에 맨홀에서의 에너지 손실은 일반적으로 중요하게 고려되지 않았다. 그러나 과부하흐름에서 에너지 손실은 관거의 배수능력을 저하시켜 도심지역의 침수피해를 가중시키는 요인이 된다. 그러므로 과부하 사각형 맨홀 내에서의 수두 손실을 분석할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 FLUENT 6.3 모형을 이용하여 과부하 사각형 합류맨홀에서의 흐름특성을 모의하고 맨홀 내 손실수두의 변화를 계산하여 손실계수를 산정하였다. 또한 실험결과와 수치모의 결과를 비교 및 분석하여 사각형 맨홀에서의 손실계수 산정에 FLUENT 6.3모형의 적용성을 확인하였다. 맨홀 폭(B)과 연결관경(d)의 비(B/d)에 따른 손실계수를 산정하였다. B/d가 증가할수록 사각형 합류 맨홀에서의 손실계수는 증가하였다. 중간 단차 맨홀에서 단차 변화에 따른 손실계수의 변화를 산정하였다. 단차가 5 cm이상 증가하면 맨홀 내 수심과 손실계수가 점진적으로 증가하였으므로 중간 맨홀에서의 적정 단차는 5 cm로 판단된다. 따라서 우수 관거 시스템의 여러 형태의 사각형 맨홀에서의 흐름의 변화 및 손실계수를 예측할 때, Fluent 6.3 모형은 사용 가능하리라 판단된다.

Lately, the cavitation and erosion phenomena in the rudder have been increased for high-speed container ships. However, cavitation is not prone to occur in model experiments because of low Reynolds number. In order to predict the cavitation phenomena, the - analysis of the viscous flow in the rudder gap is positively necessary In this study, numerical calculation was applied to the two-dimensional flow around the rudder gap using FLUENT code. The velocity and pressure field were numerically acquired and cavitation phenomena could be predicted. And the case that the round bar was installed in the rudder gap was analyzed. For reducing the acceleration force when fluid flow through the gap, modified rudder shape is proposed, It is shown that modified rudder shape restrain the pressure drop at the entrance of the gap highly both in the computational results and in the model experiment, and reduce the cavitation bubbles.

In general, 4-pole parameter and three-point method are used for predicting transmission loss which is one of characteristics of Muffler using CAE tools. However, these mehtods show different results from experiment when the flow effects are presented in practical model. In this parer, to overcome these problems, both Fluent and.Sysnoise are used to analyze the performance of extended inlet/outlet muffler including flow effects with varying flow velocity at inlet of duct. Flow fields and quadrupole source is calculated by Fluent. And Sysnoise is used to analyze acoustic performances of muffler with quadrupole source data extracted from Fluent. Finally, the variation of transmission loss is estimated according to various inlet flow velocity.
