In the present study, turbulent flows around cubic and L-shape buildings were simulated numerically. Standard ${\kappa}$-$\varepsilon$, RNG ${\kappa}$-$\varepsilon$, LES turbulence models were adopted for the present simulation. The wind pressure coefficients from these results were compared with the available experimental data. The result of RNG ${\kappa}$-$\varepsilon$ and LES turbulent models gave better prediction than that of standard ${\kappa}$-$\varepsilon$ turbulent model which is widely used in the turbulent flow simulation.

이 글에서는 난류유동의 수치모사 기법으로서 최근 주목을 받고 있는 LES에 대해서 살펴보았다. LES의 개념은 공간에서의 여고에 근거를 두고 있으며 따라서 난류모델은 작은 스케일의 유동 구조에만 국한된다. LES의 이러한 장점은 DNS에 좀도 가까운 난류모델링의 가능성을 의미한다. 또한 그간 발전된 LES의 기법들에 대해 고찰해보았으며 LES는 DNS의 처선책으로서 난류유 동을 예측하기 위한 도구로서 그 전망은 매우 밝다.

제트류는 다양한 크기와 운동량의 에디가 복잡하게 혼합되어 이루어져 있으며, 이를 정확하게 모델링하고 이해하기 위해서는 제트류의 다양한 특성들을 잘 반영하여 연구를 수행해야 한다. 다양한 연구 수행 방법 중 수치해석 방법은 상대적으로 공간 및 시간적 비용이 적게 들어서 널리 사용되고 있다. 이러한 수치해석 방법에는 DNS(Direct Numerical Simulation), LES(Large Eddy Simulation), RANS(Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes) 등이 있으며, 그중 LES는 난류 모델링을 사용하는 RANS 방법에 비해 더욱 정확한 흐름 모델링을 제공하는 장점이 있다. 이러한 LES는 대규모 에디는 직접 해석하면서, 일정 크기 이하의 에디는 모델링을 사용해 해석하는 것이 특징이다. 하지만, LES를 사용하기 위해서는 적절한 그리드 크기를 결정하는 것이 중요하며, 이는 모델의 정확성과 연산 비용에 큰 영향을 미친다. 하지만, 여전히 적절한 그리드 크기를 결정하는 것은 어려운 문제이다. 이러한 LES 모델링을 사용할 때 적절한 그리드 크기를 결정하기 위해서는 정확한 시간 평균 속도 변동을 연구하는 것이 앞서 선행되어야 한다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 기계학습 기반 접근 방식을 사용하여 난류 제트 내 시간 평균 속도 변동을 예측하는 연구를 진행하였다. 즉, 난류 제트 역학을 이해하는 데 중요한 파라미터인 시간 평균 유속을 이용하여 시간 평균 속도 변동을 예측하는 데 초점을 맞추었다. 모델의 성능은 평균 제곱 오차와 R-제곱 등 다양한 지표를 사용하여 평가되었다.

In this study, turbulent flows in a grooved channel are numerically investigated by Large Eddy Simulation (LES). Especially, a parametric study is carried out to study effects of length and depth of a groove on large-scale flow structures. For one test case, comparison of LES results with those of DNS reveals a good agreement even though the number of grid points of LES is only 6.5% of that of DNS. This confirms that LES is a suitable tool for a parametric study of turbulent flows. The subsequent parametric study using LES shows that the large-scale turbulent structures are significantly affected by the geometry of the groove. Especially, when the length of the groove is short such that the recirculation region occupies the entire groove, the turbulent flow in the groove becomes very weak in both mean and fluctuation quantities.

The turbulent mixing and combustion of a shear coaxial injector under supercritical pressures have been theoretically/numerically investigated. Turbulent numerical model is based on large eddy simulation with real-fluid transport and thermodynamics over the entire pressure; Soave modification of Redlich-Kwong equation of state, Chung's model for viscosity/conductivity, and Fuller's theorem for diffusivity to take account Takahashi's compressible effect. The results are compared with previous researcher's. The large-scale vortices shedding from the outer rim into the recirculation region to react with gaseous oxygen was investigated.

Dam-break flow occurs when an elevated dam suddenly collapses, resulting in the catastrophic release of rapid and uncontrolled impounded water. This study compares laminar and turbulent closure models for simulating three-dimensional dam-break flows using OpenFOAM. The Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) model, specifically the k-ε model, is employed to capture turbulent dissipation. Two scenarios are evaluated based on a laboratory experiment and a modified multi-layered block obstacle scenario. Both models effectively represent dam-break flows, with the turbulent closure model reducing oscillations. However, excessive dissipation in turbulent models can underestimate water surface profiles. Improving numerical schemes and grid resolution enhances flow recreation, particularly near structures and during turbulence. Model stability is more significantly influenced by numerical schemes and grid refinement than the use of turbulence closure. The k-ε model's reliance on time-averaging processes poses challenges in representing dam-break profiles with pronounced discontinuities and unsteadiness. While simulating turbulence models requires extensive computational efforts, the performance improvement compared to laminar models is marginal. To achieve better representation, more advanced turbulence models like Large Eddy Simulation (LES) and Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) are recommended, necessitating small spatial and time scales. This research provides insights into the applicability of different modeling approaches for simulating dam-break flows, emphasizing the importance of accurate representation near structures and during turbulence.

In this study, the coupled-numerical model has been newly developed to investigate numerically scouring and deposition around a coastal structure like a submerged breakwater using a numerical wave model and a lagrangian particle model for sand transport. As a numerical wave model, LES-WASS-2D (Hur and Choi, 2008) is adopted. The model is able to consider the flow through a porous midium with inertial, laminar and turbulent resistance term and determine the eddy viscosity with LES turbulence model. Distinct element method (Cundall and Strack, 1979), which is able to apply to many dynamical analysis of particulate media, as a lagrangian particle model for sand transport is newly coupled to the numerical wave model. The numerical simulation has been carried out to examine the scour problem in front of an impermeable submerged breakwater using the newly coupled-numerical model. The numerical results has been compared qualitatively with an existing experimental data and then its applicability has been discussed.

The present paper studies the effect of the slope gradient of a fully permeable submerged breakwater using a newly developed numerical model that is able to consider the flow through a porous midium with inertial, laminar and turbulent resistance terms, i.e. simulate directly WAve-Structure (submerged breakwater)-Sand seabed interaction and can determine the eddy viscosity with LES turbulence model in 2-Dimensional wave field (LES-WASS-2D). The developed model was validated through the comparison with an existing experimental data, and further used for various numerical experiments in oder to investigate the complicated hydrodynamics on the varying slope gradient of permeable submerged breakwater. We found an acceptable phenomenon, as we expect intuitively, that reflection and transmission coefficients decrease simultaneously as slope gradient decrease. In addition, the breaking point, the circulation flow and mean vorticity around a submerged breakwater are throughly discussed.

담수가 해수에서 흘러드는 하구에서는 성층이 관측되며 이것은 난류의 미세구조를 변화시키는 주요 원인으로 작용한다. 이러한 성층화 현상은 하구 내 부유사의 군집인 하구 최대혼탁수(Estuarine Turbidity Maximum, ETM)의 형성에 영향을 주게 된다. 본 연구는 성층의 하구 최대 혼탁수 생성 메커니즘에 관심을 두고 수치모델링을 활용한 미세 난류의 부유사 거동 분석에 초점을 두었다. 성층과 전단응력 사이의 난류 혼합을 대표하는 유동인 켈빈-헬름홀츠 불안정성(Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability)을 도입하고 성층 경계면 근처에서 부유사의 이송을 높은 레이놀즈수(Reynolds number) 유동에서 RANS(Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes Simulation)보다 다양한 규모의 에너지 획득이 가능하여 미세 난류 구조 재현에 장점을 갖는 Large-eddy Simulation(LES)를 활용하여 모사하였다. 여기에서, 부유사는 주위 유동의 물리적 특성 변화에 영향을 미치지 않는 Passive scalar로 가정하였으며 $6^{th}$-order Lagrangian 다항식 보간법을 적용하여 입자의 이동 속도를 계산하고 이를 시간에 대해 적분함으로써 이동 궤적을 추적하였다. 수치 모델 결과 Lock-exchange 유동 내에서 켈빈-헬름홀츠 불안정성이 발생함에 따라 경계면 주위에 위치한 부유사가 billow 내에서 트랩핑(trapping)되는 것을 보여주어 KH-billow 혹은 braids 내의 미세 난류에 의한 영향이 확인되었다. 본 연구에서는 LES를 활용하여 성층류 및 성층류 내의 부유사 혼합을 모사하여 난류의 정도에 따른 이동 궤적의 차이에 대해서 분석함으로써 성층의 난류 강도 저하에 따른 부유사의 군집으로의 영향에 대해 서술한다.

To investigate the flame dynamics in an annular combustor with single swirl injector, a 3D large-eddy simulation (LES) and a level-set flamelet turbulent combustion model have been implemented. The LM6000 developed by GEAE has been used as the combustor of concern and boundary conditions are based on experimental data. The strong central toroidal recirculation zone induced by the volume expansion of the combustion gas and the vortex breakdown continuously occurred through the procession of the vortex with decreasing strength, are observed.
