Experimental data are presented which describe the effects of a combustor-level high free-stream turbulence on the near-wall flow structure and heat/mass transfer on the endwall of a linear high-turning turbine rotor cascade. The end wall flow structure is visualized by employing the partial- and total-coverage oil-film technique, and heat/mass transfer rate is measured by the naphthalene sublimation method. A turbulence generator is designed to provide a highly-turbulent flow which has free-stream turbulence intensity and integral length scale of 14.7% and 80mm, respectively, at the cascade entrance. The surface flow visualizations show that the high free-stream turbulence has little effect on the attachment line, but alters the separation line noticeably. Under high free-stream turbulence, the incoming near-wall flow upstream of the adjacent separation lines collides more obliquely with the suction surface. A weaker lift-up force arising from this more oblique collision results in the narrower suction-side corner vortex area in the high turbulence case. The high free-stream turbulence enhances the heat/mass transfer in the central area of the turbine passage, but only a slight augmentation is found in the end wall regions adjacent to the leading and trailing edges. Therefore, the high free-stream turbulence makes the end wall heat load more uniform. It is also observed that the heat/mass transfers along the locus of the pressure-side leg of the leading-edge horseshoe vortex and along the suction-side corner are influenced most strongly by the high free-stream turbulence. In this study, the end wall surface is classified into seven different regions based on the local heat/mass transfer distribution, and the effects of the high free-stream turbulence on the local heat/mass transfer in each region are discussed in detail.

Although the motion of the three-phase contact line on a solid substrate has been extensively studied thus far, the understanding of the dynamics of the contact line of liquid/liquid/gas phases is far from complete. Here we deposit a drop of isopropyl alcohol (IPA) on water and HFE-7100 whose free surfaces are exposed to air to observe the flow field around the contact line. By combining the shadowgraph and high-speed imaging techniques, we find that vortices are spontaneously generated at the contact line, which grow in size with time. The flow is attributed to the Marangoni stress that pulls a liquid of lower-surface tension toward a liquid surface having a higher surface tension. However, it is not still clear why the entrained lower-surface-tension liquid should whirl rapidly beneath the contact line. We also visualize the flow by the particle image velocimetry (PIV) to find out that the rotational velocity reaches the order of 1 mm/s near the free surface.

The flow and heat transfer characteristics on the impingement surface can be controlled by the change of vortex with the acoustic excitation, because the flow characteristics of an impinging jet are affected strongly by the vortices formed at the jet exit. To investigate the effects of acoustic excitation, we measured the velocity, turbulent intensity distributions for the free jet and local heat transfer coefficients on a impingement surface. As the acoustic excitation, subharmonic frequency of excited frequency plays an important role to the control of the jet flow. If the vortex pairings are promoted by the acoustic excitation, turbulence intensity of the jet flow is increased quickly. On the other hand if the vortex pairings are suppressed, the jet flow has low turbulence intensity at the center of the jet. Therefore, the low heat transfer rates are obtained on the impingement plate for a small nozzle-to-plate distance. However, it has high heat transfer rates at a large distance between the nozzle and plate due to the increasing of potential-core length.

Vortex and swirl occurring in a pump suction intake sump normally reduce the performance and disturb the safe operation of the circulation water pump in thermal power plants. This paper presents a case study of one particular intake sump design via a CFD analysis and a hydraulic model testing. The physical experiments and numerical analysis were performed under two flow and three level variation conditions. The vortex patterns around the pump suction pipe have been predicted by a commercial CFD code with the k-${\varepsilon}$ model. The model tests were conducted on a 1/10 model for a practical intake sump. The location, number and general pattern of the free surface vortex and submerged vortex predicted by CFD simulation were found to be a good agreement with those observed in the model testing.

우주발사체용 액체추진제 공급시스템에서 산화제가 엔진으로 공급될 때 다양한 환경 또는 외력에 의해서 탱크 내부의 출구영역에서 와류가 발생한다. 이러한 swirl을 방지하기 위한 탱크 내부에 AVD(Anti-Device Vortex)라는 와류방지 장치를 설치한다. 유동해석을 통해 LOX(액체산소) 공급에 효율적인 와류방지장치의 성능을 확인하였다. AVD 개수와 길이에 따라 공급시간에 대한 질유량과 산화제 자유표면에서 swirl의 크기 등을 분석해서 최적의 크기와 개수를 도출하고 설계에 반영하고자 한다.

발전소의 주요시설 중 발전 시스템 냉각용으로 사용되는 순환수는 순환수 취수부(Circulation Water Intake Basin)를 통해 공급된다. 순환수 취수부 중 흡입수조(Pump Sump)에서 발생하는 다양한 형태의 와류는 순환수펌프(Circulation Water Pump) 및 관로에 악영향을 미친다. 특히, 공기의 흡입을 동반한 자유표면 와류는 진동, 소음, 공동현상 등을 발생시켜 순환수펌프의 성능 저하, 관로의 손상을 일으키며 발전이 중단되는 주요 원인이 된다. 따라서 수리모형 실험을 통해 순환수 취수부에 대한 수리특성을 반드시 확인하고, 와류 발생 시 와류를 제어할 수 있는 적절한 와류제어장치(Anti Vortex Device)를 적용하여 원활한 발전소 운영이 가능하도록 해야 한다. 자유표면 와류 저감을 위해 와류제어장치 중커튼월(Curtain Wall)을 사용하는 것이 일반적이며, 자세한 내용은 American National Standard for Pump Intake Design에서 기술하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 리비아 Tripoli West 4×350 MW 발전소의 순환수 취수부를 대상으로 하였으며, 실제 운영조건을 적용하고, 수리모형 실험을 통해 순환수 취수부 중 흡입수조에서 발생하는 와류제어장치의 와류저감 효과를 분석하였다. 또한, 수중와류 제어를 위해 플로어 스플리터(floor splitter)는 기본적으로 적용하였고, 자유표면에서 발생하는 와류제어를 위해 새로운 형태인 컬럼 커튼월(Column Curtain Wall)을 추가적으로 적용하여 효과를 확인하였다. 본 연구에서는 일반적으로 적용되었던 커튼월에 새로 개발한 컬럼 커튼월을 추가적으로 적용하여 수리특성을 분석한 결과, 균일한 흐름이 형성되면서 와류가 제어되는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 순환수펌프 관로 내에서 발생하는 와류각도는 ANSI/HI 9.8의 설계기준인 5° 이하로 나타나 흐름의 안정성을 확인하였다.

The free surface influenced the wake behind a rotating propeller and its effects were investigated experimentally in a circulating water channel with the variation of water depth. Instantaneous velocity fields were measured using two-frame PIV technique and ensemble-averaged to study the phase-averaged flow structure in the wake region. For an isolated propeller, the flow behind the propeller is affected only by the propeller rotation speed, the leading on the blades and the proximity of the propeller to the free surface. The phase-averaged mean velocity fields show that the potential wake and the viscous wake developed on the blade surfaces. The interaction between the tip vortices and the slipstream causes the oscillating trajectory of tip vortices. The presence of the free surface greatly affected the wake structure, especially for propeller immersion depth of 0.6D. At small immersion depths, the free surface modified the tip and trailing vortices and the slipstream flow structure downstream of X/D = 0.3 in the propeller wake.

The velocity and pressure fields of a ship's propulsion mechanism of Weis-Fogh type are studied by advanced vortex method. The wing of NACA0010 type and the channel are approximated by a finite of source and vortex panels, and the free vortices are introduced from the surface of their bodies. The viscous diffusion of fluid is represented by the core-spreading method. The velocity field is calculated on the basis of Biot-Savart law and the pressure field is calculated from the integration equation formulated by Uhlman. The flow fields of this propulsion mechanism are unsteady and complex, but the flow fields are clarified by numerical simulation.

The Characteristics of the conical vortices on the roof surface of a low-rise building has been investigated by using a PIV(Particle Image Velocimerty) technique. The scaled model of TTU building with 1:92 scaling ratio was used. The Reynolds number based on the free stream velocity and the length of the model was $1.96{\times}10^5$. When the angle of attack for the building model is $45^{\circ}$, the conical vortices are occurred symmetrically and the center of vortices are changed with respect to the angle of the approaching flow. The rotating direction of the conical vortices found to be counter-rotating. The secondary vortex motions are investigated using the instantaneous flow field data.
