  • 도시 배수 시스템에서 유입유량이 관거의 만관 상태를 초과하거나 하류 흐름 때문에 발생하는 역류의 영향을 받는다면, 관거 시설은 과부하(surcharge) 상태인 압력흐름이 된다. 중력흐름 상태에서 맨홀의 수두 손실은 일반적으로 무시되지만, 과부하 맨홀에서의 수두 손실은 중요하며, 우수 관거 시스템의 전체 손실에 상당한 부분을 차지하게 된다. 이러한 현상은 여러 개의 맨홀을 가지는 도시 배수 시스템에서 특히 중요한 사항이 된다. 따라서 관거 시설 내 맨홀에서의 수리적 에너지 손실에 대한 연구와 보다 구체적인 설치 기준의 제시가 요구되고 있는 실정이다. 특히 배수관거 시스템의 하류부에 설치되는 4방향 합류맨홀은 맨홀으로 유입되는 주 유입관과 측면 유입관의 유입흐름의 영향으로 맨홀 내의 유수교란에 의한 흐름특성이 복잡하므로 이에 따른 흐름특성의 변화를 분석하고 에너지 손실을 연구할 필요가 있다. 그러므로 우수 관거 시스템의 우수 배제 능력을 증가시켜 도심지의 침수를 방지하기 위한 관거시설의 적정 설계 기준이 필요하며, 합리적인 설계 기준을 제시하기 위하여 과부하 4방향 합류 맨홀 내에서의 수두 손실을 분석할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 수리모형 실험의 물질적, 시간적 한계를 극복하고 과부하 4방향 합류맨홀에서의 복잡한 흐름특성을 분석하기 위하여 일반적으로 3차원 유체거동의 특성분석에 많이 사용되는 FLUENT 6.3 모형을 선택하였다. 합류맨홀 및 접합 관거의 기하 모형의 격자망은 수치해석의 안정성 확보를 위하여 맨홀과 연결관의 합류부분에서는 사면체 격자로 구성하고 합류부분을 제외한 구간에서는 6면체 격자로 구성하였으며, 각 격자의 면은 가능한 사각형 또는 삼각형의 형태를 취하도록 하였다. 합류맨홀 모형의 벽면에는 No-Slip 경계조건을 부여하였으며, 유입부에는 속도 조건, 유출부와 맨홀의 자유수면 부분의 경계에서는 대기압 조건을 부여하였다. 수리모형 실험 결과와 비교하기 위하여 유입 관거의 유속 조건을 수리 모형실험의 조건과 동일하게 채택하여 수치모의를 수행하였다. 수치모형의 적용 결과 맨홀 내에서의 유속변화, 수심변화 및 압력변화에 대해서는 수리모형 실험 결과와 유사한 경향을 나타내고 있으며, 수치모형에 의하여 산정된 4방향 합류맨홀에서의 손실계수 값과 수리모형 실험에 의하여 산정된 손실계수 값이 유사하므로 우수 관거 시스템의 4방향 합류맨홀에서의 흐름 변화 및 손실계수 예측하는 데에 있어서 FLUENT 6.3 모형은 사용 가능하리라 판단된다.

  • The technology of joining BT (Biotechnology) with NT (Nanotechnology) must be rapidly arranged in 21c. Specially, the technical value is important more and more since the research about MEMS, which synthesizes BT and NT, is variously proceeding on the wide fields. This study by simulation shows the Fluid-Flow within micro Pump used in Bio-MEMS technology through Fluent Program. Namely, this experiment shows the most suitable external conditions and Pump Model within micro Pump by observing the flow of fluids as to the conditions of pressure, temperature and Model when the Fluid flows within micro Pump. We saw the variousness of pressure and temperature as to the existence of Chamber through examining by reference of Fluid-Flow. In the case of the existence of Chamber, the variousness of pressure and temperature is less than in the case of the non-existence of Chamber. By this simulation, we know that the Pump, which has a Chamber, affects the Fluid-Flow less than that. So we can say that it is necessary for us to design the Pump which has a Chamber.

  • In this study, breakwater model which has several outlet pipes to discharge heated water is settled in the experimental open channel and velocity distribution of wall jet is measured. Numerical simulation of velocity structure of wall jet using 3-dimensional computer model. Fluent model, is also carried out. The calculated results are verified with the experimental results and the flow characteristics of wall jet are investigated. The length of zone of flow establishment of wall jet is shorter than that of free jet, and the diminution rate of jet centerline longitudinal velocity is larger than that of free jet. Characteristics of buoyant jet and non-buoyant simple jet simulated by Fluent model are compared. Near the outlet pipe, in the region where x/lQ is over 15, this is reversed. Comparison of vertical distribution of longitudinal velocity shows that positive velocity of non-buoyant jet is bigger than that of buoyant jet in the bottom layer and in the upper layer, negative velocity of non-buoyant jet is bigger too. Flow separation in free surface of the buoyant jet occurs in smaller distances from the outlet than the non-buoyant jet. Buoyant jet expands faster than the non-buoyant jet in vertical direction.

  • Labyrinth seals are commonly used in various kinds of turbomachinery to reduce leakage flow. In the present 3D CFD analysis of see-through-type labyrinth air seal, the methodology of determining leakage and rotordynamic coefficients is suggested with the relative coordinate system for steady-state simulation. The leakage flow and rotordynamic forces predicted by using different solvers and turbulent models of FLUENT are compared with the results of the existing bulk-flow analysis code LABYSEAL.FOR and experiment. The present CFD result of direct stiffness(K) shows only improvement in prediction. The results of leakage and rotordynamic coefficients as well as computing time are sensitive against the used solver and turbulent model.

  • Leakage reduction through annular type labyrinth seals of steam turbine is necessary for enhancing their efficiency and the precise prediction method of seal leakage is needed. In this study, numerical analysis for leakage prediction of the combination-type-staggered-labyrinth seal has been carried out using FLUENT 6 which is commercial CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) code based on FVM (Finite Volume Method) and SIMPLE algorism. The present CFD results are verified with the theoretical analysis based on Bulk-flow concept which has been mainly used in predicting seal leakage. Comparing with the result of Bulk-flow model analysis, the leakage result of CFD analysis shows good agreement within 7.1% error.

  • The management science was concerned about how to use the main point of the management science model and it's technique by the rational primary factors. The problem's definition, estabilished of the model and it's solving. These function are very difficult and important problems, what is more important, are the model of management science's real prosecution to the manager and management scientist. The management science give us a clue to the solution of a business problem. To get needs conclusion and achieving the estabilished object, we must implement a plan, a stratgem, a policy. If we were not implementing the recommended items, we may call the estabilished model and problem solving impractical, ivory-tower theorizing. But, the implementation of management science model is a complicated problem that is involved mutual relations of managers and management scientist, linkage parts member and the resources of organization. And the other problems of implementation are very complicated problems composed of technologic and economic, social and politic, psychological. This paper reports the implementation of a success that possibly studies a fluent and a chief cause to systematic analysis. Then, first of all I will define of implementation and from these, construction of a unity system, I continue with a catch hold of a main point and a fluent for the successful implementation.

  • Assessment of aerodynamic noise is becoming increasingly important for automotive manufacturers. Flow passing a vehicle may indeed lead to high interior noise level and affect cabin comfort. Interior noise results from various mechanisms including aerodynamic fluctuations of the disturbed flow around the side mirror or pillar, hydrodynamic and acoustic loading of the car panels and windows, vibration of these panels and acoustic radiation inside the vehicle. Objective of the present study is to capture these important mechanisms in a simulation model and demonstrate the ability of the combined simulation tools Fluent / Virtual.Lab to provide accurate aerodynamic and interior noise prediction results. Previous study focused on the noise generated by the turbulence around the A-pillar structure of the HSM (Hyundai simplified model). The present study also includes the effect of the side-mirror and rain-gutter structures. Complete modeling process is presented including details on the unsteady CFD simulation and the vibro-acoustic model with absorption materials. Guidelines and best practices for building the simulation model are also discussed.

  • Mesh and turbulence model sensitivity analyses have been performed on computational fluid dynamics simulations executed with Hydra and ANSYS Fluent for a single CANadian Deuterium Uranium (CANDU) 37M nuclear fuel bundle placed within a standard pressure tube. The goal of this work was to perform a methodical analysis to objectively determine an appropriate mesh and to gauge the sensitivity of different turbulence models for CANDU subchannel flow under isothermal conditions. The boundary conditions and material properties are representative of normal operating conditions in a high-powered channel of the Darlington Nuclear Generating Station. Four meshes were generated with ANSYS Workbench Meshing, ranging from 22 to 84 million cells, and analyzed here to determine an appropriate level of mesh resolution and quality. Five turbulence models were compared in the turbulence model sensitivity analysis: standard k - ε, RNG k - ε, realizable k - ε, SST k - ω, and the Reynolds Stress Model. The intent of this work was to gain confidence in mesh generation and turbulence model selection of a single bundle to inform the decision making of subsequent investigations of an entire fuel channel containing a string of twelve bundles.
