The hypersonic flow on the stagnation streamline of a blunt body is analyzed with quasi one-dimensional (1-D) Navier-Stokes equations approximated by adopting the local similarity to the two-dimensional (2-D)/axisymmetric Navier-Stokes equations. The governing equations are solved using the implicit finite volume method. The computational domain is confined from the stagnation point to the shock wave, and the shock fitting method is used to find the shock position. We propose a boundary condition at the shock, which employs the shock wave angle in the vicinity of the stagnation streamline using the shock shape correlation. As a result of numerical computation conducted for the hypersonic flow over a sphere, the proposed boundary condition is shown to improve the accuracy of the prediction of the shock standoff distance. The quasi 1-D Navier-Stokes code is efficient in computing time and is reliable for the flow analysis along the stagnation streamline and the prediction of heat flux at the stagnation point in the hypersonic blunt body flow.

본 연구는 정상류 Navier-Stokes 방정식에 섭동(perturbation) 이론을 적용하여 주기함수 간극에 대한 삼승법칙의 수정에 대해 논하였다. 이를 위해, 주기함수를 진폭과 파장에 대한 무차원 함수로 전환한 뒤 미소 계수에 대한 무차원 유동함수와 연속 방정식을 적용하였다. 이러한 과정을 통해 정상류 Navier-Stokes 방정식의 섭동 근사해를 구하였으며 이를 유한 차분법에 적용하였다. 단일 절리 모델에 대한유한 차분 수치해석을 통해, 수정된 삼승 법칙이 주기함수 간극의 유체 유동에 대한 정상류 Navier-Stokes 방정식의 섭동 근사해와 잘 일치하는 것으로 나타났다. 이를 통해 본 연구에서 제시된 삼승 법칙이 간극 분포에 따른 유체 유동의 평가에 있어 유용하게 적용될 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

General classes of boundary-pressure-driven flows of incompressible Newtonian fluids in three­dimensional (3D) channels and in 3D pipes with known steady laminar realizations are investigated respectively. The characteristic physical and geometrical quantities of the flows are subsumed in the kinetic Reynolds number Re and a parameter $\psi$, which involves the energetic ratio and the directions of the boundary-driven part and the pressure-driven part of the laminar flow. The solution of non-stationary dimension-free Navier-Stokes equations is sought in the form $\underline{u}=u_{L}+U,\;where\;u_{L}$ is the scaled laminar velocity and periodical conditions are prescribed for U in the unbounded directions. The objects of our numerical investigations are autonomous systems (S) of ordinary differential equations for the time-dependent coefficients of the spatial Stokes eigenfunction, where these systems (S) were received by application of the Galerkin-method to the dimension-free Navier-Stokes equations for u.

The Reynolds equation is commonly used to investigate the lubrication characteristics of a spool valve. However, the applicability of the Reynolds equation is questionable for analyzing a spool valve because cavitation often occurs in the grooves of the valve and the depth of a groove is much higher than the clearance in most cases. In this study, the validity of the Reynolds equation in the spool valve analysis is investigated by comparing the results obtained from the Reynolds equation and those obtained from the Navier-Stokes equation. The results are compared in terms of the lateral forces, friction forces, and volume flow rates (leakages). A significant difference of more than 20% is found in the lateral forces in cases where cavitation occurs and there are many grooves. Therefore, the Navier-Stokes equation should be used to investigate the lubrication characteristics of a spool valve when cavitation occurs and when the spool valve contains many grooves.

In this paper, the response surface method using three-dimensional Navier-Stokes analysis to optimize the shape of a multi-blade centrifugal fan, is described. For numerical analysis, Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with standard k - c turbulence model are transformed into non-orthogonal curvilinear coordinate system, and are discretized with finite volume approximations. Due to the large number of blades in this centrifugal fan, the flow inside of the fan is regarded as steady flow by introducing the impeller force models for economic calculations. Linear Upwind Differencing Scheme(LUDS) is used to approximate the convection terms in the governing equations. SIMPLEC algorithm is used as a velocity-pressure correction procedure. Design variables, location of cur off, radius of cut off, expansion angle of scroll and width of impeller were selected to optimize the shapes of scroll and blades. Data points for response evaluations were selected by D-optimal design, and linear programming method was used for the optimization on the response surface. As a main result of the optimization, the efficiency was successfully improved. It was found that the optimization process provides reliable design of this kind of fans with reasonable computing time.

In this paper, the response surface method using three-dimensional Navier-Stokes analysis to optimize the shape of a forward-curved blades centrifugal fan, is described. For numerical analysis, Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with standard k-e turbulence model are transformed into non-orthogonal curvilinear coordinate system, and are discretized with finite volume approximations. Due to the large number of blades in forward-curved blades centrifugal fan, the flow inside of the fan is regarded as steady flow by introducing the impeller force models for economic calculations. Linear Upwind Differencing Scheme(LUDS) is used to approximate the convection terms in the governing equations. SIMPLEC algorithm is used as a velocity-pressure correction procedure.

In a spool valve analysis, the Reynolds equation is commonly used to investigate the lubrication characteristics. However, the validity of the Reynolds equation is questionable in a spool valve analysis because cavitation often occurs in the groove and the depth of the groove is much higher than the clearance in most cases. Therefore, the validity of the Reynolds equation in a spool valve analysis is investigated by comparing the results obtained from the Reynolds equation and the Navier-Stokes equation. Dimensionless parameters are determined from a nondimensional form of the governing equations. The differences between the lateral force, friction force, and volume flow rate (leakage) obtained by the Reynolds equation and those obtained by the Navier-Stokes equation are discussed. It is shown that there is little difference (less than 10%), except in the case of a spool valve with many grooves where no cavitation occurs in the grooves. In most cases, the Reynolds equation is effective for a spool valve analysis under a no cavitation condition.

An efficient numerical method to solve the unsteady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations is developed. A fully implicit time advancement is employed to avoid the CFL(Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy) restriction, where the Crank-Nicholson discretization is used for both the diffusion and convection terms. Based on a block LU decomposition, velocity-pressure decoupling is achieved in conjunction with the approximate factorization. Main emphasis is placed on the additional decoupling of the intermediate velocity components with only n th time step velocity The temporal second-order accuracy is Preserved with the approximate factorization without any modification of boundary conditions. Since the decoupled momentum equations are solved without iteration, the computational time is reduced significantly. The present decoupling method is validated by solving the turbulent minimal channel flow unit.

A high-order discontinuous Galerkin method for the two-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations was developed on unstructured triangular meshes. For this purpose, the BR2 methd(the second Bassi and Rebay discretization) was adopted for space discretization and an implicit Euler backward method was used for time integration. Numerical tests were conducted to estimate the convergence order of the numerical solutions of the Poiseuille flow for which analytic solutions are available for comparison. Also, the flows around a flat plate, a 2-D circular cylinder, and an NACA0012 airfoil were numerically simulated. The numerical results showed that the present implicit discontinuous Galerkin method is an efficient method to obtain very accurate numerical solutions of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations on unstructured meshes.

본 연구에서는 비정렬 격자계에서 가장 많이 쓰이는 근사 해법 중에 하나인 LU 기법의 Navier-Stokse 방정식에 대한 수렴성 및 안정성에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 적절한 스칼라 모델 방정식을 사용하여 LU 기법이 갖는 고유한 특성에 관한 해석적 논의를 수행하였으며, 이를 Navier-Stokes 방정식으로 확장하여 해석하였다. 그 결과 LU 기법의 강성도는 격자 종횡비가 높아짐에 띠라, 그리고 격자 레이놀즈 수 감소함에 따라 증가하게 된다. 또한 내부반복계산을 통해서 이러한 강성도가 부분적으로 극복될 수 있음을 보였으며, 평판 난류 유동 해석을 통해서 해석 결과를 검증하였다.
