A twin unidirectional impulse turbine for wave energy conversion has been suggested in our previous study, and the performance under unsteady flow has been investigated by quasi-steady analysis. In the present study, the performance of twin impulse turbine under unsteady flow condition has been investigated by unsteady analysis of Computational fluid dynamics. As a result, the mean efficiency of twin unidirectional impulse turbine under unsteady flow is lower than the maximum efficiency of unidirectional impulse turbine. Moreover, it is verified that airflow goes backward in the reverse turbine in low flow rates.

The unsteady supersonic flow over two- and three-dimensional cavities has been analyzed by the integration of unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes(RANS) with the k-$\omega$ turbulence model. The unsteady flow is characterized by the periodicity due to the mutual relation between the shear layer and the internal flow in the cavity. An explicit 4th order Runge-Kutta scheme and an upwind TVD scheme based on the flux vector split with the van Leer limiters are used for time and space discritizations, respectively. The cavity has a L/D ratio of 3 for two-dimensional case, and same L/D and W/D ratio of I for three-dimensional case. The Mach and Reynolds numbers are 1.5 and 450000 respectively. In the three-dimensional flow, the field is observed to oscillate in the 'shear layer mode' with a feedback mechanism that follows Rossiter's formula. In the two-dimensional simulation, the self-sustained oscillating flow has more violent fluctuation inside the cavity. The primary fluctuating frequencies of two- and three- dimensional flow agree very well with the 2nd mode of Rossiter's frequency. In the three-dimensional flow, the 1st mode of frequency could be seen.

This paper presents flow characteristics of a sweeping jet issued by a feedback-free fluidic oscillator. Overall flow characteristics of feedback-free sweeping jet (FFSJ) were analyzed using flow visualization. The feedback-free sweeping jet has a sinusoidal external flow pattern. The oscillating frequency of the FFSJ is three times higher than that of a conventional sweeping jet at the same Reynolds number. Flow structure and turbulence characteristics were investigated using time-resolved particle image velocimetry (TR-PIV). In instantaneous velocity fields, the flow did not stay at ends but changed the direction continuously in contrast to the conventional sweeping jet. Velocity distributions at each plane which were extracted from mean velocity field has Gaussian distribution, which is similar with a circular jet. The sweep angles were constant as 45° at all Reynolds numbers in the high flow rate regime.

진동수주형 파력발전장치는 수주, 터빈, 발전기 그리고 전력변환 장치 등이 연계된 복잡한 물리적인 특성을 나타낸다. 본 연구는 1/4 스케일의 모형시험을 통해 진동수주와 터빈의 물리적인 관계의 도출에 중점을 두고 있다. 진동수주실과 연성된 터빈의 공력특성은 오리피스를 활용하여 모사하였다. 진동수주실 성능평가에 핵심요소인 터빈효과는 오리피스를 통과하는 유속과 압력강하로 대표할 수 있다. 진동수주형 파력발전장치의 터빈효과는 모형시험에서 계측된 유속과 압력강하로부터 비선형적인 관계를 갖는 것을 확인하였다.

자유표면을 가지는 유체에서 물체가 운동을 하게되면 물체와 자유표면의 교차점 주위에서 유제유동이 매우 급격해진다. 이 유동현상은 부유체의 운동에 따르는 유체유동, 탱크내에서의 슬로싱, 조파기 문제, 물체의 입수등 여러문제에서 발생된다. 이 유동은 교차점 주위에서 특이성을 가진다고 알려져 있었으나 Roberts(1987)는 물체의 운동이 충격운동이 아닐 경우에는 특이성이 존재하지 않는다는 것을 밝혔다. 본 논문에서는 표면장력을 고려하여 물체의 운동이 충격운동인 경우에도 특이성을 가지지 않는 해석해를 구하였고, 해의 특성을 조사하여 진동현상에 대한 임계치를 구하여 교차점에서 떨어진 거리가 이 임계치보다 작은 곳에서는 진동현상이 존재하지 않는다는 것을 밝혔다.

The two-dimensional unsteady incompressible viscous flow behind rectangular bluff bodies between two parallel plates was analyzed numerically. The steady state flow and the vortex flow behind rectangular bluff bodies in the channel were investigated for two regimes i.e., the laminar(Re = 100, 300, 500) and the turbulent flows(Re = 10⁴∼10/sup 6/). The vortex shedding was generated by a physical disturbance(6%) numerically imposed at the rear of the bluff bodies for a short time. It was observed that the perturbed flow became periodic after a transient period. And in the case of unsteady inflow, the sinusoidal pulsatile flow was applied as the inlet condition in the turbulent flow of Reynolds number of 1.0×10/sup 5/. FLUENT code was employed to solve the problems. The power-law scheme was used to get stable linearized equations and the PISO algorithm was applied to finding the solution of them.

Numerical investigations are presented, which show that a back-flow flap can improve the dynamic stall characteristics of oscillating airfoils. The flap was able to weaken the stall vortex and therefore to reduce the peak in the pitching moment. This paper gives a brief insight into the method of function of a back-flow flap. Initial wind tunnel experiments were performed to define the structural requirements for a detailed experimental wind tunnel characterization. A structural integration concept and two different actuation mechanisms of a back-flow flap for a helicopter rotor blade are presented. First a piezoelectric actuation system was investigated, but the analytical model to estimate the performance showed that the displacement generated is too low to enable reliable operation. The seond actuation mechanism is based on magnetic forces to generate an impulse that initiates the opening of the flap. A concept based on two permanent magnets is further detailed and characterized, and this mechanism is shown to generate sufficient impulse for reliable operation in the wind tunnel.

본 연구에서는 진동자를 이용하여 채널 내 공기 중 산소의 확산을 증대시키는 방법을 고안하였다. 왕복 유동 시 물질 전달을 지배하는 두 가지 요소인 왕복 유동 주파수와 왕복 유동 거리가 채널 내의 길이방향 확산에 어떤 영향을 미치는지에 대해 선행연구 결과를 이용한 이론적 해석을 통하여 보여주었으며, 이러한 채널내의 길이방향 확산 량의 증가가 스택 성능에 미치는 영향에 대해 알 수 있었다. 스택의 채널 내의 길이방향 확산량은 연료전지가 반응하는 반응량에 비례하게 되며, 따라서 스택내의 길이방향 확산 량을 늘려주는 만큼 연료전지의 최고 파워 밀도가 늘어나게 된다. 이러한 길이방향 확산 량을 증가시키기 위해서는 왕복 유동이 좋은 방법이 되며, 연료전지 운전 시 왕복 유동의 주파수를 증가시키게 되거나 왕복 유동의 거리를 증가시킬수록 채널 내의 길이방향으로 확산 량이 증대되게 된다.

The aerodynamics of the Wells turbine has been studied using 3-d, unstructured mesh flow solver for the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations. The basic feature of the Wells turbine is that even though the cyclic airflow produces oscillating axial forces on the airfoil blades, the tangential force on the rotor is always in the same direction. Geometry used to define 3-D numerical grid is based upon that of an experimental test rig. The 3-D Wells turbine model, consisting of approximate 220,000 cells is tested of four axial flow rates. In the calculations the angle of attack has been varied between 10˚ and 30˚ of blades, Representative results from each case are presented graphically andy analysed. It is concluded that this technique holds much promise for future development of Wells turbines.

Effects of the oscillating incoming flow on vortex shedding and lock-on behind a square cylinder are investigated using numerical simulations at a Reynolds number of 100. Vortex shedding occurred at low forcing frequencies of the incoming flow similar to the natural vortex shedding. As the forcing frequency further increases, the shedding frequency decreases to the half of the forcing freqnency. For a sufficiently large frequency, vortex shedding returns to the natural vortex shedding irrespective of the forcing amplitude. Also, the lock-on region becomes wider with higher forcing amplitudes. The phase diagram between the drag and lift shows a simple periodic behavior in the lock-on region, while a complicated periodic phase relation is observed when there is no lock-on.
