본 논문에서는 경사축에 의해 추진기의 후면에 형성되는 비대칭 후류를 모델링하였고 이를 사용하여 추진기에 발생하는 비정상력과 모멘트를 계산하였다. 또한 공동발생시 비대칭후류가 공동 형상에 미치는 영향을 계산, 검토하였다. 추진기의 비대칭 후류위치를 계산하기 위해 유입유동을 축방향, 접선방향 그리고 반경방향으로 나누고 축방향 유동만을 이용, 후류면에서 zero pressure jump 조건을 만족하는 대칭후류 위치를 계산한 후, 접선방향 및 반경방향의 유동을 추진기의 매회전 위치에서 계산하여 대칭 후류와의 선형 합을 통해 비대칭 후류위치를 계산하였다. 새로운 비대칭 후류모델을 비정상 공동중의 추진기에 적용하여 대칭후류모델의 결과 및 실험 결과와 비교하였다. 비교결과 비대칭 후류모델로부터 계산된 비정상력 및 모멘트가 대칭 후류모델로부터의 결과들 보다 실험치와 좋은 일치를 보임을 확인하였다.

Design and developments of a propeller fan for a cooling tower have been accomplished by both numerical prediction of performance and experimental validation with a wind tunnel, Main interest lies on blade geometry of a fan for optimal design of aerodynamic performance. The present methodology for numerical estimation is commercial program, Fine/Turbo, which gives us engineering information such as flow details near the blades and flow rate of it. The numerical results are compared with precise experimental output and show good agreement. Also new proposed model of a blade with the program show improved performance relative to present running model in market.

With the sharp increase of the oil price, the issue of the energy saving requires even higher propulsive efficiency of the propellers. Traditionally the propellers have been designed with the criteria such as that of Lerbs optimum based on the lifting line theory and the empirical formulae of Lerbs and van Manen giving relations of the wake pitch with the wake non-uniformity. With the aid of the high speed computer, it is now possible to apply the time-consuming iterative approaches for the solution of the lifting surface problems. In this paper we formulate the variational problem to optimize the efficiency of the propeller operating in the given ship wake using the lifting surface method. The variational formulation relating the spanwise circulation distribution with the propulsive efficiency to be maximized is however non-linear in circulation distribution functions, thus the iterative method is applied to the quasi-linearized equations. The blade shape design also requires the iterative procedures, because the shape of the blade which is represented by the lifting surface is unknown a priori. The numerical code was validated with the DTNSRDC propeller 4119 which is well-known to be optimum in uniform inflow condition. In addition existing (well-designed) commercial propellers were selected and compared with the results of the open water tests and the self-propulsion tests.

This paper aims to develop a submerged propeller turbine for micro hydropower plant which allows to sustain high values of efficiency in a broad range of hydrological conditions (H=2~6 m, $Q=0.15{\sim}0.39m^3/s$). The two aspects to be considered in this development are mechanical simplicity and high-efficiency operation. Unlike conventional turbines that have spiral casing and gear box, this is directing driving and no spiral casing. A 10 kW class turbine which has the most high potential of the power generation has been developed. The most important element in the design of turbine is the runner blade. The initial blade is designed using inverse design method and then the runner geometry is modified by classical hydraulic method. The design process is carried out in two steps. First, the blade shape is fix and then other components of submerged propeller turbine are designed. Computational fluid dynamics analyses based on the Navier-Stokes equations have been used to obtain overall performance data for the blade and the full turbine, respectively. The results generated by performance parameters(head, guide vane opening angle and rotational speed) variations are theoretically analysed. The evaluation criteria for the blade and the turbine performances are the pressure distribution and flow's behavior on the runner blades and turbine. The results of simulation reveals an efficiency of 91.5% and power generation of 10.5kW at the best efficiency point at the head of 4m and a discharge of $0.3m^3/s$.

In the early design stage of underwater vehicles, it is important to estimate the vehicle's underwater motion performance. The key design elements for the motion are propellers, battery power, and underwater resistance of the vehicle. Small thrusters with motor and propeller are usually used for the UUV(unmanned underwater vehicles). In this study, a multiphysics thruster model combining electro-mechanical and hydrodynamics characteristics was proposed to estimate the thruster performance. To show the applicability of the mathematical model, an sample thruster was used for the derive the unknown parameters of thruster. Hydrodynamic parameters were calculated for a 3D geometry model of the propeller by ANSYS/CFX program. Finally, Matlab/simulink program was used for the numerical simulation to predict the thruster performance from the given voltage/current input to the motor. Also, proved validity of simulation model by experiment test. Test were done by 2 mode(middle/high speed, reverse). The thruster performance curves obtained from this simulation were confirmed to be similar with experiment results.

An outdoor free-running model test system was designed for assessing ship maneuverability with test uncertainty. The test model was a surface combatant of tumblehome hull geometry. The straight forward tests were conducted first to obtain the relationship between the propeller revolution rate and advance speed. During the outdoor tests, the propeller revolution rate to achieve a certain Froude number condition was higher than that in the indoor free-running model tests. Turning circle and zigzag tests for evaluating ship maneuverability criteria were carried out at the propeller revolution rate determined by the straight forward test results. The random and systematic standard uncertainties of maneuvering criteria were obtained by repeated tests and comparison with the indoor free-running model test results, respectively. The test uncertainty was largely dominated by the systematic standard uncertainty, while the random standard uncertainty was small with good repeatability.

본 연구는 BET 기법을 이용하여 멀티콥터에 사용되는 프로펠러 두 종류의 정지 비행 시 추력과 토크를 계산하였다. 3차원 형상 측정 장비로 프로펠러의 형상 정보를 추출하였으며 CATIA를 이용하여 에어포일의 단면 형상 데이터를 획득하였다. 추출된 에어포일 형상과 RPM 변화를 고려한 유동조건에 따른 양력 및 항력을 EDISON CFD를 활용하여 구한 다음 BET 기법을 이용하여 추력을 예측하였다. 이때 층류와 난류 두 조건에 대해 계산하여 그 결과를 비교하였다. 계산된 추력 결과를 제작사에서 제공하는 성능 데이터와 JavaProp 프로펠러 성능 예측 소프트웨어의 결과와 비교하였다. 추력의 경우, 9인치 프로펠러의 경우 제작사에서 제공하는 성능은 완전 난류 조건의 결과와 층류 조건 결과의 중간 값에 해당되었으며, 16인치 프로펠러의 경우 난류유동 조건 결과와 근사한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 토크는 두 모델 모두 예측값과 제작사의 성능 데이터와 큰 차이를 보였다.

A higher order panel method based on B-spline representation for both the geometry and the solution is developed for the analysis of steady flow around marine propellers. The self-influence functions due to the normal dipole and the source are desingularized through the quadratic transformation, and then shown to be evaluated using conventional numerical quadrature. By selecting a proper order for numerical quadrature, the accuracy of the present method can be increased to the machine limit. The far- and near-field influences are shown to be evaluated based on the same far-field approximation, but the near-field solution requires subdividing the panels into smaller subpanels continuously, which can be effectively implemented due to the B-spline representation of the geometry. A null pressure jump Kutta condition at the trailing edge is found to be effective in stabilizing the solution process and in predicting the correct solution. Numerical experiments indicate that the present method is robust and predicts the pressure distribution on the blade surface, including very close to the tip and trailing edge regions, with far fewer panels than existing low order panel methods.

In the Smart UAV Development Program, one of the 21c Frontier R&D Program, the tiltrotor has been studied as the concept of vehicle. The tiltrortor aircraft take-off and land in rotary wing mode like conventional helicopter, and cruise in fixed wing mode like conventional propeller airplane. For the conversion of the flight mode from helicopter to airplane, the nacelle located at wing tip has to be tilted from about 90 degrees of helicopter mode to about 0 degree of airplane mode. In this study, the aerodynamic characteristics of the wing with tilted nacelle is investigated using computation fluid dynamics technique. In order to feature out aerodynamic interferences between wing and nacelle, the flow calculations are conducted for the wing and the nacelle separately and for the combined geometry of wing and nacelle, respectively. Through this computations, not only the aerodynamic data-base for the wing-nacelle is constructed but also its contribution to the configuration design of the wing-nacelle is anticipated.
