The turbulent flow field characteristics of a gun-type gas burner with and without a duct were investigated under the isothermal condition of non-combustion. Vectors and mean velocities were measured by hot-wire anemometer system with an X-type hot-wire probe in this paper. The turbulent flow field with a duct seems to cause a counter-clockwise recirculation flow from downstream to upstream due to the unbalance of static pressure between a main jet flow and a duct wall. Moreover, the recirculation flow seems to expand the main jet flow to the radial and to shorten it to the axial. Therefore, the turbulent flow field with a duct increases a radial momentum but decreases a axial momentum. As a result, an axial mean velocity component with a duct above the downstream range of about X/R=1.5 forms a smaller magnitude than that without a duct in the inner part of a burner, but it shows the opposite trend in the outer part.

The turbulent swirling flow field characteristics of a gun-type gas burner with a combustion chamber were investigated under the cold flow condition. The velocities and turbulent quantities were measured by hot-wire anemometer system with an X-type probe. The turbulent swirling flow field in the edge of a jet seems to cause a recirculation flow from downstream to upstream due to the unbalance of static pressure between a main jet flow and a chamber wall. Moreover, because the recirculation flow seems to expand the main jet flow to the radial and to shorten it to the axial, the turbulent swirling flow field with a chamber increases a radial momentum but decreases an axial as compared with the case without a chamber from the range of about X/R=1.5. As a result, these phenomena can be seen through all mean velocities, turbulent kinetic energy and turbulent shear stresses. All physical quantities obtained around the slits, however, show the similar magnitude and profiles as the case without a chamber within the range of about X/R=1.0.

한양대학교 중형 아음속 풍동의 설계요구사항에 따라 균일도 증가 및 난류도 감소를 위한 최적설계를 수행하였다. 신뢰성 있는 풍동실험을 위해 먼저 풍동 시험부의 균일도와 난류강도 특성이 먼저 파악되어야 한다. 한양대학교 중형 아음속 풍동의 비균일도와 난류강도는 세 부분의 속도영역에서 피토관과 X형 열선프로브로 각각 측정되었다. 풍동 시험부의 유속이 증가함에 따라 비균일도가 작아졌으나 시험부의 측정단면이 확산부에 가까워질수록 비균일도가 크게 나타났다. 난류강도는 시험부 중앙에서 설계 요구조건에 비해 약간 높게 측정되었다.

A contact strip shape of a high speed train pantograph system was optimized with CFD to increase the aerodynamic performance and stability of contact force, and the results were validated by a wind tunnel test. For design of the optimal contact strip shape, a Kriging model and genetic algorithm were used to ensure the global search of the optimal point and reduce the computational cost. To enhance the performance and robustness of the contact strip for high speed pantograph, the drag coefficient and the fluctuation of the lift coefficient along the angle of attack were selected as design objectives. Aerodynamic forces were measured by a load cell and HWA (Hot Wire Anemometer) was used to measure the Strouhal number of wake flow. PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) was adopted to visualize the flow fields. The optimized contact strip shape was shown a lower drag with smaller fluctuation of vertical lift force than the general shaped contact strip. And the acoustic noise source strength of the optimized contact strip was also reduced. Finally, the reduction amount of drag and noise was assessed when the optimized contact strip was applied to three dimensional pantograph system.

The flow and combustion patterns have been investigated inside the gasoline engine cylinder with the swirl or tumble flow, whereas the air flow characteristics, which are generated in the part of intake system before entering into the intake manifold, have not been known completely. It is necessary to analyze the flow field in the intake system consisting of air rater, throttle valve and intake manifold. The throttle valve, used to control the intake air flow rate, is important because it makes various mass flow rate and flow patterns. Three-dimen-sional How characteristics such as velocities, turbulent intensities and Reynolds shear stresses are measured by the hot wire anemometer at the exit of the throttle valve with the variation in the valve opening angle($15^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$, $75^{\circ}$ and $90^{\circ}$) and the Reynolds numbers (45000, 70000 and 140000). There are a lot of changes in flow characteristics at $75^{\circ}$ due to the large recirculation flow comparing with those of the other cases, and the streamwise velocity is especially enforced strongly below the valve shaft. The other component velocities are relatively large near the centerline parallel to the valve shaft. The effects of the Reynolds number on the flow field are not severe.

The passive control methods such as horizontal and vertical fences on the lower surface of the bluff body were applied to suppress the vortex shedding and enhance the aerodynamic stability of flow. For investigating the effects of the passive control methods, wind tunnel experiments on the unsteady flow field around a bluff body near a moving ground were performed. The boundary layer and velocity profiles were measured by the Hot Wire Anemometer (HWA) system and the vortex shedding patterns and flow structures in a wake region were visualized via the Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) system. Also, it is a measuring on moving ground condition that the experimental values of the critical gap distances, Strouhal numbers and aerodynamic force FFT analyses. Through the experiments, we found that the momentum supply due to moving ground caused the vortex shedding at the lower critical gap distance rather than that of fixed ground. The horizontal and vertical fences increase the critical gap distance and it can suppress the vortex shedding. Consequently, the stability characteristics of the bluff body near a moving ground could be effectively enhanced by the simple passive control such as the vertical fences.
