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.

Numerical analysis of wind turbine scale effect was performed by using computational fluid dynamics. For the numerical analysis of wind turbine. Three dimensional Navier-Stokes solver with various turbulence models was tested and realizable k-e turbulence model was selected for the simulation of wind turbines. To validate the present method, performance of NREL (National Renewable Energy Laboratory) Phase VI wind turbine model was analyzed and compared with experiment and blind test data. Using the present method, numerical simulations for various size of wind tunnel model were carried out and characteristics were observed in detail. The power loss due to the interference between wind turbine and nacelle was also computed for relatively larger nacelle installation in wind tunnel test. The present results showed good correlations with experimental data and reasonable trends of scale effect of wind turbine.

The equation which is related to TXV performance was investigated. On the basis of this equation, the TXV simulation program was developed. Results of the developed TXV simulation program were proven by the experiment on the influence of pressure difference between TXV entrance and exit and equalizing pressure. Simulation results show very good agreement with experimental results, the RMS error between them was 1.83%. The capillary tube simulation program was made by the basic equation of fluid dynamics. Results of this program were proven by data which were experimented previously. The RMS error between simulation results and experimental results was 4.13% .

최근 수중폭발로 인한 구조물의 충격응답에 대한 연구는 매우 높은 비용과 소요시간, 민감한 환경문제 등으로 인하여 실제 시험보다는 컴퓨터를 통한 수치해석적 연구가 활발히 진행되어 왔다. 또한 시뮬레이션의 기술 향상과 더욱 정교해진 기능들로 수치 시뮬레이션의 효율성이 증가되었을 뿐 아니라 그 신뢰성까지 증가하였다. 본 연구에서는 유체 표면의 Acoustic Pressure와 구조물 표면 변위의 적절한 관계를 다루는 구조-유체 상호작용(FSI : Fluid-Structure Interaction), 수중폭파 형태를 결정하는 유체의 깊이와 폭발물과 구조물 사이의 거리에 대한 파라미터를 상용 유한요소 프로그램인 ABAQUS에 적용한 시뮬레이션 값과 실험적 이론 값 비교에 중점을 두었다. 수중폭발로 인한 파이프의 충격테스트 응답 분석은 ABAQUS/Explicit을 사용하여 수행되었고, 시간이력에 따른 충격하중, Acoustic Pressure, 타격지점의 응력, 속도, 변형에너지 등 ABAQUS CAE에서 결과를 나타내었다.

현재 가연성 가스의 누출시 누출된 가스의 확산과 VCE에 의한 과압을 예측하기 위해 여러 모델들이 이용되고 있다. 그러나 이 모델들은 누출설비의 지형과 장애물 그리고 건물들의 영향에 대해서는 충분히 고려하지 않은 단순한 접근방법을 이용하고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 누출된 물질의 연소형태, 설비의 Geometry, 난류, 장애물, 바람의 영향 등 여러 변수를 고려하여 보다 정확하게 분석할 수 있는 CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) Model을 검토함으로서 누출된 가스의 확산과정과 분포형태 그리고 폭발시 화염과 과압의 결과를 2D와 3D의 가상공간에서 제시하였다. 이러한 CFD 분석결과는 폭발에 대한 리스크 분석과 리스크 기반의 설계에 있어 유용하게 활용될 것으로 판단된다.

Seismic Safety Analysis of Intake Tower is very important because failure of intake tower may incur huge chaos on the modem society. Recently, there has been growing much concern about earthquake resistance of existing structures. This research demonstrates the dynamic fluid pressure calculation using added mass simulation. The actual safety evaluation has been conducted through not only the static analysis but also the dynamic analysis. According to the analysis results, the vibration incurred by earthquake may induce considerable damage to the hydraulic structure. Therefore, the appropriate design process out of exact calculation is quite necessary.

In this study, wing design optimization for long-endurance unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is investigated. The fluid-structure integration (FSI) analysis is carried out to simulate the aeroelastic characteristics of a high-aspect ratio wing for a long-endurance UAV. High-fidelity computational codes, FLUENT and DIAMOND/IPSAP, are employed for the loose coupling FSI optimization. In addition, this optimization procedure is improved by adopting the design of experiment (DOE) and Kriging model. A design optimization tool, PIAnO, integrates with an in-house codes, CAE simulation and an optimization process for generating the wing geometry/computational mesh, transferring information, and finding the optimum solution. The goal of this optimization is to find the best high-aspect ratio wing shape that generates minimum drag at a cruise condition of $C_L=1.0$. The result shows that the optimal wing shape produced 5.95 % less drag compared to the initial wing shape.

A CFD analysis method is developed and applied for investigating the gas flow and the byproduct particle trajectory in Roots type vacuum pump. The internal fluid flow and thermal fields between the rotors and the housing of vacuum pump are analyzed by using the dynamic mesh, the numerical methods for unsteady 2-D Navier-Stokes equation and the standard k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model of the Fluent code. Coupled with the flow simulation results, the particle trajectory of the byproduct flowing into the pump with gas stream is analyzed by using discrete phase modeling technique. The CFD analysis results show the pressure, the velocity and the temperature distributions in pump change abruptly due to the rotation of rotors, and back flows are produced due to the strong reverse pressure gradients at rotor/rotor and rotor/housing clearances. The predicted byproduct particle trajectory results also show the particles impinge on the clearance surfaces between the housing and the rotor of pump and then may form the deposit layer causing the failure of pump.

To investigate the effects of ocean conditions on the thermal stress and deformation caused by thermal stratification of a pressurizer surge line in a floating nuclear power plant (FNPP), the finite element simulation platform ANSYS Workbench is utilized to conduct the fluid-solid-thermal coupling transient analysis of the surge line under normal "wave-out" condition (no motion) and under ocean conditions (rolling and pitching), generating the transient response characteristics of temperature distribution, thermal stress and thermal deformation inside the surge line. By comparing the calculated results for the three motion conditions, it is found that ocean conditions can significantly improve the thermal stratification phenomenon within the surge line, but may also result in periodic oscillations in the temperature, thermal stress, and thermal deformation of the surge line. Parts of the surge line that are more susceptible to thermal fatigue damage or failure are determined. According to calculation results, the improvements are recommended for pipeline structure to reduce the effects of thermal oscillation caused by ocean conditions. The analysis method used in this study is beneficial for designing and optimizing the pipeline structure of a floating nuclear power plant, as well as for increasing its safety.
