A parametric study of a 2.5 kW class propeller type micro hydraulic turbine was performed. In order to analyze the internal flow characteristics in the hydraulic turbine, three dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with shear stress transport turbulence model were used and the hexahedral grid system was used to construct computational domain. To secure the reliability of the numerical analysis, the grid dependency test was performed using the grid convergence index method based on the Richardson extrapolation, and the grid dependency was removed when about 1.7 million nodes were used. For the parametric study, the axial distance at shroud span (L) between the inlet guide vane and the runner, and the inlet and outlet blade angles (β₁, β₂) of the runner were selected as the geometric parameters. The inlet and outlet angles of the runner were defined in the 3 spans from the hub to tip, and a total of 7 geometric parameters were investigated. It was confirmed that the outlet angles of the runner had the most sensitive effect on the power and efficiency of the micro hydraulic turbine.

유한체적법을 기반으로 나비에 스톡스 방정식을 비구조격자로 풀어 실린더 주위의 공력특성을 규명하였다. 보텍스, 속도, 압력, 잔차, 항력계수 등의 데이터를 가지고 분석하였고 레이놀즈 수는 50, 100이다. 유동특성은 Re>50에서 주기적으로 진동하는 소용돌이를 후류에 형성하며 이 현상은 이동하는 실린더에서도 유사한 현상을 보여 주었다. 지면효과는 실린더 위쪽에서 형성된 소용돌이가 벽면에 근접할수록 실린더의 후방으로 길게 늘어나는 형상을 보이고, 실린더와 근접벽면 사이의 유속이 정체되어 실린더와 벽면 사이의 간격이 0.6 에서는 근접 평판과 실린더 사이의 유동이 거의 끊겨짐을 알 수 있었다. 본 수치계산의 검증을 위하여 항력계수를 타 연구결과와 비교하였다.

분자-연속체 하이브리드 기법은 연속체 유체역학으로 예측하기 어려운 마이크로/나노 스케일 유동에 대해 개발되고 발전해 왔다. 분자동역학은 고체표면 주변 영역에서 사용되고, 나머지 영역에서는 나비아스톡스 방정식이 사용된다. 본 연구에서는 나노채널에서 고체-액체 상호작용과 표면 거칠기의 영향을 연구하기 위해 분자-연속체 하이브리드 기법을 이용하여 쿠에트 유동을 해석하였다. 우리는 고체-액체 상호작용 힘인 표면 에너지와 표면 거칠기가 유동의 표면 경계조건에 영향을 주는 것을 발견하였다. 표면 에너지가 낮을 때에는 유동이 고체 표면에서 미끄러짐이 발생하였고, 표면 에너지가 증가함에 따라 미끄러짐의 크기가 감소하였다. 표면 에너지가 높을 때에는 로킹(locking) 경계조건이 형성되었다. 또한 표면 거칠기는 유동이 고체 표면에서 미끄러지는 것을 방해하여 로킹 경계조건이 잘 형성되도록 영향을 주었다.

In this paper, we studied the effects of intersection angles of the flow-foucusing type droplet generation device inlet channel on droplet diameter using numerical simulation modeling. We modeled different intersection angles with a fixed continuous channel width, dispersed channels width, orifices width, and expansion channels width. Numerical simulations were performed using COMSOL Multiphysics$^{(R)}$ to solve the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations for a two-phase flow in various flow-focusing geometries. Modeling results showed that an increase of the intersection angle causes an increase in the modification of the dispersed flow rate ($v^{\prime}{_d}$), and the increase of the modification of the continuous flow rate ($v^{\prime}{_c}$) obstructs the dispersed phase fluid flow, thereby reducing the droplet diameter. However, the droplet diameter did not decrease, even when the intersection angle increased. The droplet diameter decreased when the intersection angle was less than $90^{\circ}$, increased at an intersection angle of $90^{\circ}$, and decreased when the intersection angle was more than $90^{\circ}$. Furthermore, when the intermediate energy deceased, there was a decrease in the droplet diameter when the intersection angle increased. Therefore, variations in the droplet diameter can be used to change the intersection angle and fluid flow rate.

This paper provides quantification of the effects of the turbulence model and grid refinement on the analysis of tip vortex flows by using the RANS(Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes) method. Numerical simulations of the tip vortex flows of the NACA $66_2$-415 elliptic hydrofoil were conducted, and two turbulence models for RANS closure were tested, i.e., the Realizable $k-{\varepsilon}$ model and the Reynolds stress transport model. Numerical results were compared with available experimental data, and it was shown that the data for the Reynolds stress transport model that were computed on the finest grid system had better agreement in reproducing the development and propagation of the tip vortex. The Realizable $k-{\varepsilon}$ model overestimated the turbulence level in the vortex core and showed a diffusive behavior of the tip vortex. The tip vortex cavitation on the hydrofoil and its trajectory also showed good agreement between the current numerical results that were obtained using the Reynolds stress transport model and the results observed in the experiment.

CMBT(Curved Moving Boundary Treatment) is a newly developed scheme for the treatment of a no slip condition on the curved solid wall of moving obstacle in a flow field. In our research CMBT was used to perform LBM simulation of a flow over a moving circular cylinder to determine the flow feature and aerodynamics characteristic of the cylinder. To ascertain the applicability of CMBT on the complex shape of the obstacle, it was first simulated for the case of the flow over a fixed circular cylinder in a channel and the results were compared against the solution of Navier-Stokes equation with deforming mesh technique. The simulations were performed in a moderate range of reynolds number at each moving cylinder to identify the flow feature and aerodynamic characteristics of circular cylinder in a channel. The drag coefficients of the cylinder were calculated from the simulation results. We have numerically confirmed that the critical reynolds number for vortex shedding is ar Re=250 and the result is the same as the case of fixed cylinder. As the cylinder approaching to one wall, the 2nd vortex is developed by interacting with the wall boundary-layer vorticity. As the velocity ratio increase the third vortex are generated by interacting with the 2nd vortexes developed on the upper and lower wall boundary layer. The resultant $C_d$ decrease as reynolds number increasing and the Cd approached to a value when Re>1000.

This article examines the scale effect of the flow characteristics, resistance and propulsion performance on a 317k VLCC. The turbulent flows around a ship in both towing and self-propulsion conditions are analyzed by solving the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equation together with the application of Reynolds stress turbulence model. The computations are carried out in both model- and full-scale. A double-body model is applied for the treatment of free surface. An asymmetric body-force propeller is used. The speed performances including resistance and propulsion factors are obtained from two kinds of methods. One is to analyze the computational results in model scale through the revised ITTC' 78 method. The other is directly to analyze the computational results in full scale. Based on the computational predictions, scale effects of the resistance and the self-propulsion factors including form factor, thrust deduction fraction, effective wake fraction and various efficiencies are investigated. Scale effects of the streamline pattern, hull pressure and local flow characteristics including x-constant sections, propeller and center plane, and transom region are also investigated. This study presents a useful tool to hull-form and propeller designers, and towing-tank experimenters to take the scale effect into consideration.

유체내의 물체 주위에서 유동박리로 인해 생성되는 와류쉐딩은 열전달이나 물질전달을 촉진시키는 이점이 있으나, 항력을 증가시키거나 유동 및 온도의 요동에 의해 구조물을 손상시키는 단점이 있다. 특히 물체와 주위 유동 사이에 공진이 일어나면 항력값이 증가하면서 항력과 양력의 진폭이 급격히 증가하여 물체에 심각한 손상을 초래할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 레이놀즈수 200 이하의 층류유동에서 공진시 물체 주위의 유동현상과 이로 인한 양력과 항력의 변화들을 수치해석방법을 통하여 분석하였다 수치해석은 일반좌표계에서 유한체적법을 적용하여 Navier-Stokes 방정식을 차분화하였다. 이때 방정식의 종속변수로는 공변속도를 채택하였으며, 이산화된 방정식은 분리단계법을 이용하여 수치해를 구하였다. 입구유속의 강제진동에 의한 사각실린더 주위의 와류쉐딩시 공진이 발생하는 강제진동수의 범위는 원통실린더의 경우와 유사하였으나 상대적으로 폭이 더 좁았다 그리고 공진이 발생하는 강제진동수의 범위는 진폭이 증가할수록 증가하였다. 쉐딩 진동수가 일정하면서 입구유속의 진폭이 증가하면 이에 비례하여 실린더 주위의 유속이 상대적으로 증가하게 되어 와도가 강해지면서 입추유속 진폭에 비례하여 항력의 평균값 뿐 아니라 항력과 양력의 진폭도 증가하였다. 그리고 실린더 뒷면의 와류 생성영역은 진폭에 비례하여 감소하였다. 진폭의 변화에 따라 상변화가 서로 상이한 것은 실린더 뒤쪽의 와류들이 상하면의 합력차이를 변화시켰고 이것이 진폭변화에 따라 상변화를 상이하게 나타나게 한 원인으로 진폭이 클수록 실린더 뒤쪽에서 압력변화가 심하게 변하면서 실린더 앞쪽까지 더 많은 영향을 미쳤기 때문이다.선원의 사용자에게 제공되는 최종방사능을 평가하는데 유용하게 사용될 수 있다.r의 분포를 보였다.cting the effect of earthquake on structures.

Simulation of flow past a complex marine structure requires a fine resolution in the vicinity of the structure, whereas a coarse resolution is enough far away from it. Therefore, a lot of grid cells may be wasted, when a simple Cartesian grid system is used for an Immersed Boundary Method (IBM). To alleviate this problems while maintaining the Cartesian frame work, we adopted an Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) scheme where the grid system dynamically and locally refines as needed. In this study, We implemented a moving IBM and an AMR technique in our basic 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes solver. A Volume Of Fluid (VOF) method was used to effectively treat the free surface, and a recently developed Lagrangian Dynamic Subgrid-scale Model (LDSM) was incorporated in the code for accurate turbulence modeling. To capture vortex induced vibration accurately, the equation for the structure movement and the governing equations for fluid flow were solved at the same time implicitly. Also, We have developed an interface by using AutoLISP, which can properly distribute marker particles for IBM, compute the geometrical information of the object, and transfer it to the solver for the main simulation. To verify our numerical methodology, our results were compared with other authors' numerical and experimental results for the benchmark problems, revealing excellent agreement. Using the verified code, we investigated the following cases. (1) simulating flow around a floating sphere. (2) simulating flow past a marine structure.
