The stirred tank reactor is one of the most commonly used devices in industry for achieving mixing and reaction. Here we report on results obtained from the large eddy simulations of flow inside the tank performed using a spectral multi-domain technique. The computations were driven by specifying the impeller-induced flow at the blade tip radius. Stereoscopic PlY measurements (Hill et al. $^{(1)}$) along with the theoretical model of the impeller-induced flow (Yoon et al. $^{(2)}$) were used in defining the impeller-induced flow as superposition of circumferential, jet and tip vortex pair components. Large eddy simulation of flow in a stirred tank was carried out for the three different Reynolds numbers of 4000, 16000 and 64000. The effect of different Reynolds numbers is well observed in both instantaneous and time averaged flow fields. The instantaneous and mean vortex structures are identified by plotting an isosurfaces of swirling strength for all Reynolds numbers. The Reynolds number dependency of the non-dimensional eddy viscosity, resolved scale and subgrid scale dissipations is clearly shown in this study.

The paper describes the prediction method for the unsteady flow field and the aeroacoustic noise of an small axial fan. The prediction method is comprised of various CFD conditions and acoustic analogy by using Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings equation. The diameter of tested axial fan is 170 mm and number of blade is 5. Virtual anechoic room which has same size with real one was used for CFD. URANS and LES models were used. For mesh dependence study, a different mesh type was tested and optimized mesh was selected. Calculation conditions were also studied such as time step and turbulence model for accurate noise analysis. In this paper, we got optimum analysis conditions and computational results. The unsteady pressure fluctuation at given 4 points were compared between the measured data and computational results. Also, the predicted acoustic spectrum at 3 given microphone points were compared with measured ones.

Much numerical and experimental research has been done for the flow around an oscillating airfoil. The main research topics are vortex shedding, dynamic stall phenomenon, MAV's lift and thrust generation. Until now, researches mainly have been concentrated on analyzing the wake flow for the variation of frequency and amplitude at a low angle of attack. In this study, wake structures and acoustic wave propagation characteristics were studied for a plunging airfoil at high angle of attack. The governing equations are the Navier-Stokes equation with LES turbulence model. OHOC (Optimized High-Order Compact) scheme and 4th order Runge-Kutta method were used. The Mach number is 0.3, the Reynolds number is, and the angle of attack is from $20^{\circ}$ to $50^{\circ}$. The plunging frequency and the amplitude are from 0.05 to 0.15, and from 0.1 to 0.2, respectively. Due to the high resolution numerical method, wake vortex shedding and pressure wave propagation process, as well as the propagation characteristics of acoustic waves can be simulated. The results of frequency analysis show that the flow has the mixed characteristics of the forced plunging frequency and the vortex shedding frequency at high angle of attack.

Fluid temperature fluctuations in a mixing tee pipe were numerically analyzed by LES model in order to clarify internal turbulent flows and to develope an evaluation method for high-cycle thermal fatigue. Hot and cold water with an temperature difference $40^{\circ}C$ were supplied to the mixing tee. Fluid temperature fluctuations in a mixing tee pipe is analysed by using the computational fluid dynamics code, FLUENT, Temperature fluctuations of the fluid and pipe wall measured as the velocity ratio of the flow in the branch pipe to that in the main pipe was varied from 0.05 to 5.0. The power spectrum method was used to evaluate the heat transfer coefficient. The fluid temperature characteristics were dependent on the velocity ratio, rather than the absolute value of the flow velocity. Large fluid temperature fluctuations were occurred near the mixing tee, and the fluctuation temperature frequency was random. The ratios of the measured heat transfer coefficient to that evaluated by Dittus-Boelter's empirical equation were independent of the velocity ratio, The multiplier ratios were about from 4 to 6.

Recent research has shown that quadrupole noise has a significant influence on the overall characteristics of flow-induced noise and on the performance of underwater appendages such as sonar domes. However, advanced research generally uses the Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings analogy without considering the quadrupole source to reduce computational cost. In this study, flow-induced noise is predicted by using an LES turbulence model and a developed formulation, called the formulation Q1As method to properly take into account the quadrupole source. The noise around a circular cylinder in an underwater environment is examined for two cases with different velocities. The results from the method are compared to those obtained from the experiments and the permeable FW-H method. The results are in good agreement with the experimental data, with a difference of less than 1 dB, which indicates that the formulation Q1As method is suitable for use in predicting quadrupole noise around underwater appendages.

연구목적: 파이프는 기계, 전자, 전기, 플랜트 등 많은 산업 분야에서 응용기기로 널리 사용되고 있으며, 소방, 화학 등 안전 관련 분야에서도 널리 사용되고 있습니다. 제품의 다양화에 따라 배관 분야에서도 기술의 중요성이 높아지고 있습니다. 특히 기존 동관을 스테인리스강으로 변경하는 경우 구조해석이나 유동 해석을 통해 안전성과 유동특성을 평가할 필요가 있다. 연구방법: 자체 개발한 일체형 인서트형 커넥터인 6.35 소켓 모델의 유동 안전성은 CFD 해석을 이용하여 유동유발진동(FIV) 평가 과정의 4단계를 통해 진행하였다. 연구결과: 배관계 벽면에 작용하는 압력변동의 진폭은 3,780Pa이하의 수준으로 형성되며, 이는 냉매 배관의 운전압력이나 설계응력과 비교했을 때 매우 작은 수준의 압력으로, 난류에 의한 진동이 배관의 구조안전성에 미치는 영향은 미미한 수준인 것으로 나타났다. 결론: 유동 해석을 통하여 후크조인트 체결 시 발생하는 압력 및 진동 등을 검토한 결과 일반적인 배관계의 고유진동수가 50Hz 이하에서 형성되는 것을 고려했을 때, 난류유동에 의해 유발되는 진동이 배관계의 공진을 발생시킬 가능성은 희박한 것으로 판단된다.

해안 항만구조물을 대표하는 혼성방파제의 설계에서 파랑하중에 의한 사석마운드 및 해저지반의 내부에서 과잉간극수압의 거동과 그에 따른 구조물의 파괴가 논의되어 왔고, 이를 수치시뮬레이션기법으로 규명하려는 시도가 있어왔다. 수치시뮬레이션에 관한 대부분의 연구에서는 선형 및 비선형의 해석법이 적용되었지만, LES 법에 의한 난류모델과 VOF 법에 의한 쇄파현상을 고려한 강비선형혼상류해석법이 적용된 사례는 거의 없었다. 본 연구의 선행 연구에서는 규칙파 작용하 혼성방파제-해저지반의 비선형상호작용해석에 혼상류해석법인 olaFlow 모델을 적용하였다. 본 연구도 동일한 해석법을 사용하여 불규칙파 작용하 혼성방파제-해저지반의 비선형상호작용해석을 수행하며, 이로부터 혼성방파제의 케이슨과 사석마운드 및 해저지반 근방에서 유의파고와 유의주기의 변화에 따른 수평파압, 과잉간극수압(시간변동 및 주파수스펙트럼), 평균유속, 평균와도 및 평균난류운동에너지 등을 검토하였다. 이로부터 케이슨 전면 사석마운드 수평부상에서는 최대무차원과잉간극수압, 평균난류운동에너지 및 평균와도가 동일하게 커지고, 또한 케이슨 전면의 정수면 근방에서는 항내측으로, 해저면 근방에서는 항외측으로 향하는 순환류가 형성되는 등의 중요한 결과를 알 수 있었다.

In this work a multi-fidelity non-intrusive polynomial chaos (MF-NIPC) has been applied to a structural wind engineering problem in architectural design for the first time. In architectural design it is important to design structures that are safe in a range of wind directions and speeds. For this reason, the computational models used to design buildings and bridges must account for the uncertainties associated with the interaction between the structure and wind. In order to use the numerical simulations for the design, the numerical models must be validated by experi-mental data, and uncertainties contained in the experiments should also be taken into account. Uncertainty Quantifi-cation has been increasingly used for CFD simulations to consider such uncertainties. Typically, CFD simulations are computationally expensive, motivating the increased interest in multi-fidelity methods due to their ability to lev-erage limited data sets of high-fidelity data with evaluations of more computationally inexpensive models. Previous-ly, the multi-fidelity framework has been applied to CFD simulations for the purposes of optimization, rather than for the statistical assessment of candidate design. In this paper MF-NIPC method is applied to flow around a rectan-gular 5:1 cylinder, which has been thoroughly investigated for architectural design. The purpose of UQ is validation of numerical simulation results with experimental data, therefore the radius of curvature of the rectangular cylinder corners and the angle of attack are considered to be random variables, which are known to contain uncertainties when wind tunnel tests are carried out. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations are solved by a solver that employs the Finite Element Method (FEM) for two turbulence modeling approaches of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations: Unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes (URANS) and the Large Eddy simulation (LES). The results of the uncertainty analysis with CFD are compared to experimental data in terms of time-averaged pressure coefficients and bulk parameters. In addition, the accuracy and efficiency of the multi-fidelity framework is demonstrated through a comparison with the results of the high-fidelity model.
