  • The flow characteristics of developing turbulent pulsating flows are investigated experimentally in the entrance region of a square duct ($40mm{\times}40mm$ and 4,000mm). Mean velocity profiles, turbulence intensity and entrance length are measured by using a hot-wire anemometer system together with data acquisition and processing systems. It is found that the velocity waveforms are not changed in the fully developed flow region where that $x/Dh{\geq}40$. For turbulent pulsating flow, the turbulent components in the velocity waveforms increase as the dimensionless transverse position approaches the wall. Mean velocity profiles of the turbulent steady flows follow the one-seventh power law profile in the fully developed flow region. Turbulence intensity increases as the dimensionless transverse position increases from the center to the wall of the duct, and is slightly smaller in the accelerating phase than in the decelerating phase for the turbulent pulsating flows. The entrance length of the turbulent pulsating flow is about 40 times as large as the hydraulic diameter under the present experimental conditions.

  • ADCP는 하천의 3차원 유속과 수심 자료를 매우 효율적이고 빠르게 측정할 수 있으며, 그 자료의 공간 및 시간적 해상도는 기존의 전통적인 유속 측정 방법들과 비교하여 매우 정밀하다는 장점이 있다. 하지만 ADCP는 하상 부근과 센서 근처에서의 미계측 영역이 발생하고 이 미계측 영역의 유속을 얼마나 정확하게 산정하느냐에 따라 ADCP 유량 측정의 정확도에 영향을 미친다. 본 연구에서는 ADCP 유량 산정 시 범용적으로 활용되고 있는 1/6 멱법칙(power law)을 활용한 미계측 영역의 유량 측정 결과의 정확도를 분석하였다. 이를 위해 실규모 직선수로에서 ADCP를 고정시킨 상태에서 측정한 유속 자료를 1/6 멱법칙과 대수 법칙(log law)을 적용하여 외삽 한 유속분포와 유량 산정 결과를 ADV를 이용하여 정밀하게 측정한 결과와 비교하였다. 비교 결과 전체적으로 대수 법칙으로 외삽한 경우가 높은 정확도를 나타냈으며, 수표면 근처 미계측 영역에서는 1/6 멱법칙은 유량을 작게 산정하는 경향을 나타냈고, 하상 근처의 미계측 영역에서는 유량을 크게 산정하는 경향을 나타냈다. 이 결과는 기존 1/6 멱법칙을 활용한 하상 및 수표면 부근 미계측 영역 유량 추정 방법이 오차를 수반함을 의미한다. 따라서 ADCP 정지법 측정 방식을 사용할 경우, 대수 법칙이 1/6 멱법칙보다 정확한 상하부 미계측 유량 추정 결과를 보여주었으므로 대안으로 고려되어야 할 것이다. 또한 제방 근처 미계측 영역의 유량 측정 정확도를 높이기 위해서는 수심이 0.6 m 이상을 확보한 측선을 기준으로 유량을 산정할 경우 신뢰도 높은 유량 측정 결과를 보였다. 향후, ADCP 정지법 측정 방식에 비해 보다 많이 활용되고 있는 보트탑재 이동식 ADCP의 경우도 이와 같은 검증이 필요하다고 하겠다.

  • The entry guidance design involves trajectory optimization and generation of a drag acceleration profile as the satisfaction of trajectory conditions during the entry flight. The reference trajectory is parameterized and optimized as piecewise linear functions of the velocity. A regularization technique is employed to achieve desired properties of the optimal drag profile. The regularized problem has smoothness properties and the minimization of performance index then prevents the drag acceleration from varying too fast, thus eliminating discontinuities. This paper shows the trajectory control using the simple control law as well as the information of reference drag acceleration.

  • We present the radial variations of the scale heights and the vertical velocity dispersions in a sample of nearby edge-on galaxies using BIMA/CARMA $^{12}CO$ ($J=1{\rightarrow}0$), VLA/EVLA HI, and Spitzer $3.6{\mu}m$ data. Both the disk thicknesses and the velocity dispersions of gas and stars vary with radius, contrary to assumptions of previous studies. We investigate how the interstellar gas pressure and the gravitational instability parameter differ from values derived assuming constant velocity dispersions and scale heights. Using the measurement of the disk thicknesses and the derived radial profiles of gas and stars, we estimate the corresponding volume densities. The gravitational instability parameter Q follows a fairly uniform profile with radius and is ${\geq}1$ across the star-forming disk. The star formation law has a slope that is significantly different from those found in more face-on galaxy studies. The midplane gas pressure appears to roughly hold a power-law correlation with the midplane volume density ratio (${\rho}_{H2}/{\rho}_{HI}$).

  • An analysis for the computation of Fatigue Damage Index (FDI) under the effects of the various combination of the ocean loads like random waves, current, platform motion and VIV (Vortex Induced Vibration) for a certain design water depth is a critically important part of the analysis and design of the marine riser platform integrated system. Herein, a 'Computer Simulation Model (CSM)' is developed to combine the advantages of the frequency domain and time domain. A case study considering a steel catenary riser operating in 1000 m water depth has been conducted with semi-submersible. The riser is subjected to extreme environmental conditions and static and dynamic response analyses are performed and the Response Amplitude Operators (RAOs) of the offshore platform are computed with the frequency domain solution. Later the frequency domain results are integrated with time domain analysis system for the dynamic analysis in time domain. After that an extensive post processing is done to compute the FDI of the marine riser. In the present paper importance is given to the nature of the current profile and the VIV. At the end we have reported the detail results of the FDI comparison with VIV and without VIV under the linear current velocity and the FDI comparison with linear and power law current velocity with and without VIV. We have also reported the design recommendations for the marine riser in the regions where the higher fatigue damage is observed and the proposed CSM is implemented in industrially used standard soft solution systems (i.e., OrcaFlex*TM and Ansys AQWA**TM), Ms-Excel***TM, and C++ programming language using its object oriented features.

  • This report presents the findings of a one-year monitoring effort to empirically characterize and evaluate the nature of near-ground winds for structural engineering purposes. The current wind engineering practice in the United States does not explicitly consider certain important near-ground wind characteristics in typical rough terrain conditions and the possible effect on efficient design of low-rise structures, such as homes and other light-frame buildings that comprise most of the building population. Therefore, near ground wind data was collected for the purpose of comparing actual near-ground wind characteristics to the current U.S. wind engineering practice. The study provides data depicting variability of wind speeds, wind velocity profiles for a major thunderstorm event and a northeaster, and the influence of thunderstorms on annual extreme wind speeds at various heights above ground in a typical rough environment. Data showing the decrease in the power law exponent with increasing wind speed is also presented. It is demonstrated that near-ground wind speeds (i.e., less than 10 m above ground) are likely to be over-estimated in the current design practice by as much as 20 percent which may result in wind load over-estimate of about 50% for low-rise buildings in typical rough terrain. The importance of thunderstorm wind profiles on determination of design wind speeds and building loads (particularly for buildings substantially taller than 10 m) is also discussed. Recommendations are given for possible improvements to the current design practice in the United States with respect to low-rise buildings in rough terrain and for the need to study the impact of thunderstorm gust profile shapes on extreme value wind speed estimates and building loads.

  • 본 연구는 온실에 작용하는 풍하중 산정을 위한 설계 풍속을 결정하는데 필요한 자료를 제공하기 위하여 10m 이하 높이에서의 풍속을 측정하여 풍속고도분포지수를 산정하고 변화를 분석하였다. 고도에 따른 풍속분포함수를 결정하기 위한 풍속고도분포지수를 계산하기 위해서는 $5m{\cdot}s^{-1}$ 이상의 풍속을 사용하는 것이 타당하다고 판단된다. 농촌 개활지인 부안지역의 고도에 따른 풍속변화는 지표면으로부터 풍속이 지수함수로 증가하는 우리나라의 RDC 기준과 일본의 JGHA 기준과 잘 일치하였고 풍속고도분포지수도 0.26으로 기준들에서 제시된 0.25와 거의 동일한 값을 나타내었다. 반면 군위지역의 경우는 풍속고도분포지수가 0.06으로 산정되어 지표면조도가 클수록 풍속고도분포지수가 증가하는 일반적인 변화 경향과는 반대로 나타났다. 이는 타워가 주변지대보다 약 2m 가량 더 높은 위치에 설치되었기 때문에 유선의 급격한 변화에 의한 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 일반적으로 농촌 개활지에 설치되는 온실의 설계를 위해 적용할 풍속고도분포로는 우리나라의 RDC기준과 일본의 JGHA기준에서 제시한 풍속고도분포가 가장 타당한 것으로 사료된다. 부안의 경우 오전 7시 경부터 풍속고도 분포지수가 감소하다가 오후 3시경에 최소가 된 후 다시 증가하여 24시경에 일정해지는 것으로 나타나 시간에 따른 풍속고도분포지수의 일반적인 변화경향과 잘 일치하였다. 부안지역은 형상변수가 1.51로 나타나 간척지인 부안지역의 풍속특성이 제주도 연안지역과 유사한 풍속특성을 가지고 있음을 확인하였다.

  • Aiming at the problem of non-stationary wind field simulation of downbursts, a non-stationary down-burst generation system was designed by adding a nozzle and program control valve to the inlet of the original wall jet model. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method was used to simulate the downburst. Firstly, the two-dimensional (2D) model was used to study the outflow situation, and the database of working conditions was formed. Then the combined superposition of working conditions was carried out to simulate the full-scale measured downburst. The three-dimensional (3D) large eddy simulation (LES) was used for further verification based on this superposition condition. Finally, the wind tunnel test is used to further verify. The results show that after the valve is opened, the wind ve-locity at low altitude increases rapidly, then stays stable, and the wind velocity at each point fluctuates. The velocity of the 2D model matches the wind velocity trend of the measured downburst well. The 3D model matches the measured downburst flow in terms of wind velocity and pulsation characteris-tics. The time-varying mean wind velocity of the wind tunnel test is in better agreement with the meas-ured time-varying mean wind velocity of the downburst. The power spectrum of fluctuating wind ve-locity at different vertical heights for the test condition also agrees well with the von Karman spectrum, and conforms to the "-5/3" law. The vertical profile of the maximum time-varying average wind veloci-ty obtained from the test shows the basic characteristics of the typical wind profile of the downburst. The effectiveness of the downburst generation system is verified.

  • Flow rate measurement uncertainties of the ultrasonic flow meter are generally influenced by many different factors, such as Reynolds number, flow distortion, turbulence intensity, wall surface roughness, velocity integration method along the acoustic paths, and transducer installation method, etc. Of these influencing factors, one of the most important uncertainties comes from the velocity integration method. In the present study, a optimization weighting factor method for 5-chord, which is given by a function of the chord locations of acoustic paths, is employed to obtain the mean velocity in the flow through a pipe. The power law profile is assumed to model the axi-symmetric pipe flow and its results are compared with the present weighting factor concept. For an asymmetric pipe flow, the Salami flow model is applied to obtain the velocity profiles. These theoretical methods are also compared with the previous Gaussian, Chebyshev, and Tailor methods. The results obtained show that for the fully developed turbulent pipe flows with surface roughness effects, the present weighting factor method is much less sensitive than Chebyshev and Tailor methods, leading to a better reliability in flow rate measurement using the ultrasonic flow meters.

  • The present study investigates the effects of Cattaneo-Christov thermal effects of stagnation point in Walters-B nanofluid flow through lubrication of power-law fluid by taking the slip at the interfacial condition. For the solution, the governing partial differential equation is transformed into a series of non-linear ordinary differential equations. With the help of hybrid homotopy analysis method; that consists of both the homotopy analysis and shooting method these equations can be solved. The influence of different involved constraints on quantities of interest are sketched and discussed. The viscoelastic parameter, slip parameters on velocity component and temperature are analyzed. The velocity varies by increase in viscoelastic parameter in the presence of slip parameter. The slip on the surface has major effect and mask the effect of stagnation point for whole slip condition and throughout the surface velocity remained same. Matched the present solution with previously published data and observed good agreement. It can be seen that the slip effects dominates the effects of free stream and for the large values of viscoelastic parameter the temperature as well as the concentration profile both decreases.
