A novel space vector modulation strategy in the non-orthogonal three-dimensional coordinate system for multi-level three-phase four-wire inverters is proposed in this paper. This new non-orthogonal three-dimensional space vector modulation converts original trigonometric functions in the orthogonal three-dimensional space coordinate into simple algebraic operations, which greatly reduces the algorithm complexity of three-dimensional space vector modulation and preserves the independent control of the zero-sequence component. Experimental results have verified the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed three-dimensional space vector modulation in the new non-orthogonal three-dimensional coordinate system.

A study of radiative heat heat transfer has been done in the non-orthogonal coordinate system utilizing the finite volume method and the P.1 approximation. Radiation of absorbing, emitting and scattering media in a concentric annulus has been solved using the non-orthogonal coordinate and the calculations were compared with the existing results. The results obtained from the analysis using the finite volume method are in good agreement with the existing calculations for all optical thicknesses. It was also shown that for only optically thick cases, P-1 approximation can be used in a non-orthogonal coordinate. Convective heat transfer analysis has been carried out to obtain the temperature fields in a cross flow around a circular cylinder and the finite volume method was applied in the non-orthogonal coordinate system to analyze radiative heat transfer. Effects of the optical thickness, the ratio of the surface temperature of the cylinder tot he free stream temperature, and the scattering albedo on radiation have been presented.

Turbulent flows around tube banks and in the diffuser were studied using a non-orthogonal boundary fitted coordinate system and the modified K-.epsilon. turbulence model. In these cases, many problems emerge which stem from the geometrical complexity of the flow domain and the physical complexity of turbulent flow itself. To treat the complex geometry, governing equations were reformulated in a non-orthogonal coordinate system with Cartesian velocity components and discretised by the finite volume method with a non-staggered variable arrangement. The modified K-.epsilon. model of Hanjalic and Launer was applied to solve above two cases under the condition of strong and mild pressure gradient. The results using the modified K-.epsilon. model results in both test cases.

The finite-volume method for radiation in a three-dimensional non-orthogonal gas turbine combustion chamber with absorbing, emitting and anisotropically scattering medium is presented. The governing radiative transfer equation and its discretization equation using the step scheme are examined, while geometric relations which transform the Cartesian coordinate to a general body-fitted coordinate are provided to close the finite-volume formulation. The scattering phase function is modeled by a Legendre polynomial series. After a benchmark solution for three-dimensional rectangular combustor is obtained to validate the present formulation, a problem in three-dimensional non-orthogonal gas turbine combustor is investigated by changing such parameters as scattering albedo, scattering phase function and optical thickness. Heat flux in case of isotropic scattering is the same as that of non-scattering with specified heat generation in the medium. Forward scattering is found to produce higher radiative heat flux at hot and cold wall than backward scattering and optical thickness is also shown to play an important role in the problem. Results show that finite-volume method for radiation works well in orthogonal and non-orthogonal systems.

본 연구에서는 계단형 벽면조건을 없게 하기 위해서 비직교 좌표계(non-orth- ogonal coordinate system)를 사용하여 수치해석하였다. 비직교 좌표계를 이용한 수 치해석의 예는 Thompson등이 Laplace방정식 혹은 Poisson방정식을 해석함으로써 비직 교 격자망을 구성한 바 있고, Fahgri와 Asako는 대수적 비직교 좌표변환으로 유한차분 방정식을 유도하여 비정규경계면을 갖는 관로에서의 유동특성을 해석하였으며 이재헌 과 이상렬은 Fahgri와 Asako의 방법을 비정규경계면을 갖는 밀폐공간내에서의 자연대 류의 수치해석에 적용한 바 있다. 본 해석에서도 Fahgri와 Asako의 변환법으로 유한 차분방정식을 유도하였는데, 이 방법을 사용할 경우 확대관의 경사벽면을 계단형으로 만들지 않고 유한차분방정식을 유도할 수 있어서 계단형 벽면으로 인한 해의 오차를 제거할 수 있다. Fig.2는 본 해석에서 사용한 비직교 격자망을 나타낸다.

Ever since the ideal forming theory has been developed fur process design purposes, application has been limited to sheet forming and, for bulk forming, to two-dimensional steady flow. Here, application for the non-steady case was performed under the plane-strain condition based on the theory previously developed. In the ideal flow, material elements deform following the minimum plastic work path (or mostly proportional true strain path) so that the ideal plane-strain flow can be effectively described using the two-dimensional orthogonal convective coordinate system. Besides kinematics, for a prescribed final part shape, schemes to optimize a preform shape out of a class of initial configurations and also to define the evolution of shapes and boundary tractions were developed. Discussions include the two problematic issues on internal tractions and the non-monotonous straining. For demonstration purposes, numerical calculations were made for a bulk part under forging.

A detailed numerical analysis of the evolution of thermal stratification in a curved piping system in a nuclear power plant is performed. A finite volume based thermal-hydraulic computer code has been developed employing a body-fitted, non-orthogonal curvilinear coordinate for this purpose. The cell-centered, non-staggered grid arrangement is adopted and the resulting checkerboard pressure oscillation is prevented by the application of momentum interpolation method. The SIMPLE algorithm is employed for the pressure and velocity coupling, and the convection terms are approximated by a higher-order bounded scheme. The thermal-hydraulic computer code developed in the present study has been applied to the analysis of thermal stratification in a curved duct and some of the predicted results are compared with the available experimental data. It is shown that the predicted results agree fairly well with the experimental measurements and the transient formation of thermal stratification in a curved duct is also well predicted.

Since heat exchangers are composed of bank of tubes, the knowledge on the flow and heat transfer characteristics of the tube bank are required for the optimum design and selection of heat exchangers. In this paper, the turbulent flow fields and heat transfers normal to a staggered tube bank are solved numerically employing K-.epsilon. 2 equation turbulence model and non-orthogonal coordinate transformation for the treatment of curved surface of tubes. Predicted mean Nusselt numbers of tube bank agree reasonably well with Grimision's correlation

This paper addresses a numerical method for predicting transient temperature distributions in the wall of a curved pipe subjected to internally thermal stratification flow. A simple and convenient numerical method of treating the unsteady conjugate heat transfer in the non-orthogonal coordinate systems is presented. The proposed method is implemented in a finite volume thermal-hydraulic computer code based on a cell-centered, non-staggered grid arrangement, the SIMPLEC algorithm, a higher-order bounded convection scheme, and the modified version of momentum interpolation method. Calculations are performed for the transient evolution of thermal stratification in two curved pipes, where the one has thick wall and the other has so thin wall that its presence can be negligible in the heat transfer analysis. The predicted results show that the thermally stratified flow and transient conjugate heat transfer in a curved pipe with a finite wall thickness can be satisfactorily analyzed by the present numerical method, and that the neglect of wall thickness in the prediction of pipe wall temperature distributions can provide unacceptably distorted results.

The three-dimensional turbulent flow in curved pipes susceptible to flow-accelerated corrosion has been analyzed numerically to predict the pressure and shear stress distributions on the inner surface of the pipes. The analysis employs the body-fitted non-orthogonal curvilinear coordinate system and a standard $ {\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model with wall function method. The finite volume method is used to discretize the governing equations. The convection term is approximated by a high-resolution and bounded discretization scheme. The cell-centered, non-staggered grid arrangement is adopted and the resulting checkerboard pressure oscillation is prevented by the application of a modified version of momentum interpolation scheme. The SIMPLE algorithm is employed for the pressure and velocity coupling. The numerical calculations have been performed for two curved pipes with different bend angles and curvature radii, and discussions have been made on the distributions of the primary and secondary flow velocities, pressure and shear stress on the inner surface of the pipe to examine applicability of the present analysis method. As the result it is seen that the method is effective to predict the susceptible systems or their local areas where the fluid velocity or local turbulence is so high that the structural integrity can be threatened by wall thinning degradation due to flow-accelerated corrosion.
