The three-dimensional flows in the Weis-Fogh mechanism are studied by flow visualization and numerical simulation by the vortex method. The vortex method. especially the vortex stick method, is employed to investigate the vortex structure in the wake of the two wings. The pressure is estimated by the Bernoulli equation, and the lift on the wing are also obtained. As the results the eddies near the leading edge of each wing in the fling stage take a convex shape because the eddies shed from both tips entrain the flows and the downwash in the rotating stage is deflected toward the outside because the outside tip vortex is stronger than the inside one. And the lift coefficient on the wings in this mechanism is almost independent of the Reynolds number.

The unsteady nature of vortex structures has been investigated by a large eddy simulation (LES) in an axial flow fan with a shroud covering only the rear region of its rotor tip. The simulation shows that the tip vortex plays a major role in the structure and unsteady behavior of the vortical flow in the fan. The movements of the vortex structures induce high-pressure fluctuations on the rotor blade and in the blade passage. Frequency characteristics of the fluctuating pressure on the rotor blade are analyzed using wavelet transform. The dominant frequency of the real-time pressure selected at the high pressure fluctuation region corresponds well to that of the fluctuating rotor torque and the experimental result of fan noise. It is mainly generated due to the unsteady behavior of the vortical flow, such as the tip vortex and the leading edge separation vortex.

In this study, we present experimental results of cavitating flow around a vortex generator which is used to improve the flow in the wake of ships and enhance propulsion efficiency. We conducted experiments at the CNU cavitation tunnel on a total of six vortex generators, two different aspect ratios and three taper ratios. We recorded cavity patterns using a high-speed camera and quantitatively evaluated cavity fraction using OpenCV. The most important finding of this study is that the vortex cavity generated at a root leading edge of the vortex generator develops at a specific angle.

높은 받음각 상태에 있는 연장된 앞전을 갖는 편요된 삼각날개 주위의 와류 유동 특성에 대하여 날개 윗면에서의 압력 측정을 통하여 연구하였다. 본 연구에서는 와류 유동의 물리적 현상, 특히 높은 받음각 상태에서 받음각과 옆미끄럼각이 날개 형상 주위의 공력 특성에 미치는 영향에 중점을 두었다. 실험 데이터로부터 LEX 와류가 날개와류에 유익한 효과를 부여함을 명확하게 알 수 있었다. 이는, 작은 옆미끄럼각 상태에서는 비교적 높은 받음각에 이르기까지 와류의 붕괴 없이 날개와류를 안정화시킴을 알 수 있다. 특정 범위의 받음각과 옆미끄럼각 상태에서는 롤링 모멘트가 역전되는 흥미로운 유동 현상을 관찰할 수 있었다.

In recent years, propellers with various blade configurations such as highly skewed propellers are often fitted to ships from the viewpoint of reduction of vibration and noise. In the design of such propellers, design charts based on methodical series tests are to be complemented by theoretical calculations for accurate estimation of propeller open-water characteristics. The author intended to develop a method to estimate propeller open-water characteristics based on Quasi -Vortex - Lattice Method originally developed by Lan for solving planar thin wings, The Quasi - Vortex - Lattice Method has the simplicity and flexibility of Vortex - Lattice Method. Its accuracy is comparable to that of the Vortex - Lattice Method. Converged solution can be obtained with a small number of control points and further, leading edge suction force can be calculated directly. In the present paper, a numerical method to estimate propeller open-water characteristics based on the Quasi - Vortex - Lattice Method is reviewed and its application to marine propellers is described in detail. Comparison of propeller open-water characteristics obtained by the present method with experimental data showed good agreement for a wide variety of propellers including highly skewed propellers.

The leading edge of a turbine blade was simulated as a circular cylindrical surface. The effect of free-stream turbulence on the mass transfer upstream of the injectionhole has been investigated experimentally. The effects of injection location, blowing ratio on the Sherwood number distribution were examined as well. The mass transfer coefficients were measured by a naphthalene sublimation technique. The free-stream Reynolds number based on the cylinder diameter is 53,000. Other conditions investigated are: free-stream turbulence intensities of 3.9% and 8.0%, injection locations of $40^{\circ}$, $50^{\circ}$, and $60^{\circ}$ from the front stagnation point of the cylinder, and blowing ratios of 0.5 and 1.0. The role of the horseshoe vortex formed upstream edge of the injected jet is dicussed in detail. When the blowing ratio is unity, and the coolant jet is injected at $40^{\circ}$, the mass transfer upstream of the jet is not affected by the coolant jet at all. On the other hand, when the injection hole is located beyond $50^{\circ}$, the mass transfer upstream edge of the injection hole suddenly increases due to the formation of the horseshoe vortex, but it dereases as the free-stream turbulence intensity increases because the strength of the horseshoe vortex structure becomes weakened. The role of the horseshoe vortex is clearly evidenced by placing a rigid rod at the injection hole instead of issuing the jet. In the case of the rigid rod, the spanwise Sherwood number upstream of the injection hole is much larger due to the intense influence of the horseshoe vortex.

실제 씨앗의 3차원 형상과 운동요소에 기반하여 단풍나무(Acer palmatum 종) 씨앗의 자동회전 비행을 수치적으로 해석하였다. 운동요소의 표준 값은 낙하속도는 1.26 m/s, 회전속도는 133.6 rad/s (1,276 rpm), 코닝 각은 $19.4^{\circ}$, 피치 각은 $-1.5^{\circ}$이다. 씨앗 날개의 스팬 안쪽에 위치한 컴팩트한 앞전 와류가 씨앗 날개 바람 반대면에 커다란 부압을 발생하게 하였다. 부압의 피크는 안쪽 스팬 단면 앞전 부근에 발생하였다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 현저한 앞전 와류로 특징되는 흐름 형태와 공기력 계수의 값은 동적 상사를 갖도록 한 로봇 씨앗에 대하여 실험적으로 측정한 자료와 잘 일치하였다. 바람 반대 영역에 발달한 나선형 와류는 씨앗 끝을 향하여 전진하고 씨앗 끝 부분에서 이곳을 지나는 흐름과 합쳐지는데, 이와 같은 흐름이 자동회전하는 단풍나무 씨앗의 안정되고 부착된 LEV를 유지하게 하는 메카니즘으로 여겨진다.

Leading edge extension(LEX) in a highly swept shape applied to a delta wing features the modern air-fighters. The LEX vortices generated upon the upper surface of the wing at high angle of attack enhance the lift force of the delta wing by way of increased negative suction pressure over the surfaces. The present 3-D stereo PIV includes the Identification of 2-D cross-correlation equation, stereo matching of 2-D velocity vectors of two cameras, accurate calculation of 3-D velocity vectors by homogeneous coordinate system, removal of error vectors by a statistical method followed by a continuity equation criterion and so on. A delta wing model with or without LEX was immersed in a circulating water channel. Two high-resolution, high-speed digital cameras$(1280pixel\times1024pixel)$ were used to allow the time-resolved animation work. The present dynamic stereo PIV represents the complicated vortex behavior, especially, in terms of time-dependent characteristics of the vortices at given measuring sections. Quantities such as three velocity vector components, vorticity and other flow information can be easily visualized via the 3D time-resolved post-processing to make the easy understanding of the LEX effect or vortex emerging and collapse which are important phenomena occurring in the field of delta wing aerodynamics.

In the present work, the main features of primary vortices and the vorticity concentrations downstream of vortex bursting in crossflow plane of a delta wing with a sweep angle of Λ=70° were investigated under the variation of the sideslip angles, β. For the pre-review of flow structures, dye visualization was conducted. In connection with a qualitative observation, a quantitative flow analysis was performed by employing Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV). The sideslip angles, β were varied with four different angles, such as 0°, 4°, 12°, and 20° while angles of attack, α were altered between 25° and 35°. This study mainly focused on the instantaneous flow features sequentially located at different crossflow planes such as x/C=0.6, 0.8 and 1.0. As a summary, time-averaged and instantaneous non-uniformity of turbulent flow structures are altered considerably resulting in non-homogeneous delta wing surface loading as a function of the sideslip angle. The vortex bursting location on the windward side of the delta wing advances towards the leading-edge point of the delta wing. The trajectory of the primary vortex on the leeward side slides towards sideways along the span of the delta wing. Besides, the uniformity of the lift coefficient, C_L over the delta wing plane was severely affected due to unbalanced distribution of buffet loading over the same plane caused by the variation of the sideslip angle, β. Consequently, dissimilarities of the leading-edge vortices result in deterioration of the mean value of the lift coefficient, C_L.
