  • 유한요소법에 사용되어 효율적으로 파랑변형을 해석할 수 있는 (Legendre 보간 함수) 방법을 소개하였다. 고차의 보간함수를 사용하는 유한요소모형은 대부분이 Lagrangian 보간 함수를 사용한다. 이 경우, 적은 수의 요소를 사용하고도 정확한 결과를 얻을 수 있다는 장점이 있지만 결과를 얻기 위해 소요되는 시간이 증가한다는 단점이 있다. Mass lumping을 통하여 계산 시간을 절약할 수는 있지만 이 경우에는 해의 정확성이 떨어진다는 단점이 있어 정확도를 향상시키기 위하여 요소의 수를 증가시켜 다시 계산시간이 증대되는 문제가 생기게 된다. 본 연구에서 Lagrangian 보간 함수의 변형된 형태인 Legendre 보간함수에 수치적분을 사용하여 mass lumping을 수행한 것과 같이 대각 행렬을 만들어 시간 절약의 효과를 얻으면서도 정확도가 어느 정도 유지되는 방법을 소개하였다. Boussinesq 방정식을 이용한 다양한 수치 계산을 통하여 본 연구에서 제안하는 방법의 우수성을 검증하였다.

  • The main objective of this study is to investigate the fluid flow and the heat transfer characteristics of nanofluids using multi-phase thermal LBM and to realize theenhancement of heat transfer characteristics considered in the Brownian motion. In multi-phase, fluid component($H_2O$) is driven by Boussinesq approximation, and nanoparticles component by the external force gravity and buoyancy. The effect of Brownian motion as a random movement is modified to the internal velocity of nanoparticles(Cu). Simultaneously, the particles of both the phases assume the local equilibrium temperature after each collision. It has been observed that when simulating $H_2O$-Cu nanoparticles, the heat transfer is the highest, at the particle volume fraction 0.5% of the particle diameter 10 nm. The average Nusselt number is increased approximately by 33% at the particle volume fraction 0.5% of the particle diameter 10 nm when compared with pure water.

  • Liquid metal-cooled reactors use various passive safety systems driven by natural circulation. Investigating these safety systems experimentally is more advantageous by using a simulant. Although numerous experimental approaches have been applied to natural circulation-driven passive safety systems using simulants, there has been no clear validation of the similarity law. To validate the similarity law experimentally, SINCRO-V experiment was conducted using Wood's metal and water for simulant of the Wood's metal. A pair of SINCRO-V facilities with length-scale ratio of 14.1:1 for identical Bo' was investigated, which was the main similarity parameter in temperature field simulation. In the experimental range of 0.2-1.0% of decay heat, the temperature distribution characteristics of the small water facility were very similar to that of the large Wood's metal facility. The temperature of the Wood's metal predicted by the water experiment showed good agreement with the actual Wood's metal temperature. Despite some error factors like discordance of Gr' and property change along the temperature, the water experiment predicted the Wood's metal temperature with an error of 27%. The validity of the similarity law was confirmed by the SINCRO-V experiments.
