보나 여수로와 같은 수공구조물의 주변에서 발생하는 흐름 거동은 구조물 모서리에서 발생하는 흐름분리(flow separation)와 이에 따른 전단층(shear layer)과 재순환(recirculation) 흐름 영역의 발달 그리고 분리된 흐름의 재부착(reattachment)이 특징이다. 공학적으로 난류의 해석에 있어서 이러한 흐름 거동들을 정확하게 예측하는 것은 수공구조물 설계에 있어서 중요하다. 이 연구에서는 흐름 분리와 재순환 영역의 발달 그리고 흐름 재부착을 포함하는 후방계단(backward-facing step) 흐름을 155,000의 레이놀즈수 조건에서 하이브리드 RANS/LES 모델을 적용하여 해석결과를 평가한다. 하이브리드 모델로는 벽에 인접한 격자의 해상도에 상대적으로 민감하지 않은 SST(shear-stress transport) 난류 모델을 이용하는 DES(detached-eddy simulation) 기법을 적용하였다. 계단 높이가 h인 계산영역은 흐름방향 길이가 34h, 높이는 계단 상류와 하류에서 각각 1h와 2h 그리고 폭은 $2{\pi}$이다. 계단은 상류단으로부터 10h 하류부 지점에 위치한다. 경계조건으로 상부와 하부 벽면에 대해서는 비활조건을 적용한다. 상류부 수로에서 완전 발달한 흐름을 재현하기 위해서 유입경계조건은 유입부 하류 $2{\pi}h$ 지점에서 계산된 유속과 난류량을 매핑(mapping)기법을 이용하여 반복적으로 적용한다. 총 3.1백만개와 7.3백만개의 셀로 계산영역을 구현한 두 개의 계산격자 그리고 약 3.1백만개의 셀을 이용했지만 벽면 근처에서의 격자 구성을 다른 방식으로 설정한 두 가지 격자를 이용하여 격자 해상도가 DES 수치해석 결과에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 수치해석결과는 본 연구에서 상류단 조건으로 적용한 매핑기법이 대상 수로에서 완전 발달한 흐름을 잘 재현함을 보여주며, 합리적인 DES 해석 결과를 얻기 위해서는 벽에 수직한 방향으로 적절한 격자의 해상도와 분포가 필요함을 보여준다.

In this study, aeroelastic response analyses have been conducted for a 3D wind turbine blade model. Advanced computational analysis system based on computational fluid dynamics(CFD) and computational structural dynamics(CSD) has been developed in order to investigate detailed dynamic responsed of wind turbine blade. Vibration analyses of rotating wind-turbine blade have been conducted using the general nonlinear finite element program, SAMCEF (Ver.6.3). Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS)equations with spalart-allmaras turbulence model are solved for unsteady flow problems of the rotating turbine blade model. A fully implicit time marching scheme based on the Newmark direct integration method is used for computing the coupled aeroelastic governing equations of the 3D turbine blade for fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems. Detailed dynamic responses and instantaneous Mach contour on the blade surfaces considering flow-separation effects are presented to show the multi-physical phenomenon of the rotating wind-turbine blade model.

In this study, performance analyses have been conducted for a 5MW class wind turbine blade model. Advanced computational analysis system based on computational fluid dynamics(CFD) and computational structural dynamics(CSD) has been developed in order to investigate detailed dynamic responsed of wind turbine blade. Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations with K-${\epsilon}$ turbulence model are solved for unsteady flow problems of the rotating turbine blade model. A fully implicit time marching scheme based on the Newmark direct integration method is used for computing the coupled aeroelastic governing equations of the 3D turbine blade for fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems. Predicted aerodynamic performance considering structural deformation effect of the blade show different results compared to the case of rigid blade model.

In this study, fairing configurations for an aircraft are designed and the aerodynamic analyses of the fairings are performed to find the best choice for the aircraft. Fairings considered are wing-tip fairing and wing-body fairing. Wing alone analyses are done for the wing-tip faring selection, while wing-body-tail analyses are done for the wing-body fairing selection. A 3-D RANS solver with Menter's ${\kappa}-{\omega}$ SST turbulence model are used for the aerodynamic analyses. The effects on the drag of the aircraft are examined by comparing the analysis results with and without the farings.

This paper provides numerical results for the estimation of the efficiency of KRISO energy saving devices in the design stage. A finite volume method is used to solve Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations, where the SST k-$\omega$ model is selected for turbulence closure. The propeller rotating motion is determined using a rigid body motion (RBM) scheme, which is called a sliding mesh technique. The numerical analysis focuses on predicting the power reduction by the designed KRISO devices (K-DUCT) under a self-propulsion condition. The present numerical results show good agreement with the available experimental data. Finally, it is concluded that CFD can be a useful method, along with model tests, for assessing the performance of energy saving devices for propulsion efficiency improvement.

For a flow normal to a circular disk, the flow separation occurs from the edge of the disk and the flow recirculation zone exists behind the disk. Many existing studies conducted simulations of flow normal to a circular disk under low Reynolds numbers. Some studies performed LES or DES simulations under high Reynolds numbers. However, comparative study for different RANS models for high Reynolds numbers is very limited. This study presents numerical simulations of a flow normal to a circular disk using Realizable k-ε model and SST k-ω model. The recirculation bubble length and drag coefficient were compared with the experimental data. The SST k-ω model showed the excellent predictions for the recirculation bubble length and drag coefficient.

The heat transfer and pressure loss characteristics of a rotating two-pass channel with a guide vane in the turning region have been studied using three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) analysis, and the shape of the guide vane has been optimized using surrogate modeling optimization technique. For the optimization, thickness, location and angle of the guide vanes have been selected as design variables. The objective function has been defined as a linear combination of the heat transfer and the friction loss related terms with a weighting factor. Latin hypercube sampling has been applied to determine the design points as design of experiments. A weighted-average surrogate model, PBA has been used as the surrogate model. The guide vane in the turning region does not influence the heat transfer in the first passage upstream of the turning region, but enhances largely the heat transfer in the turning region and the second passage. In an example of the optimization, the objective function has been increased by 13.6%.

Accurate prediction of ship dynamics, particularly roll motion, is very important in ship safety. In the past, empirical or vortex based methods were commonly used for the hydrodynamic roll damping predictions but they could not be applied to practical ship roll motion cause of limitations about geometries ad design conditions. Recently RANS-based techniques are developed for the practical ship motion analysis. In this study, RANS based roil analysis about a rectangular cylinder with WAVIS developed by MOERI/KORDI are performed and compared with the experimental data and other RANS results.

Assessment and validation of RANS turbulence models are conducted for the optimal analysis of supersonic converging-diverging nozzle through the comparison between computational results and experimental data. One/two equation turbulence closures such as Spalart-Allmaras, RNG k-${\varepsilon}$, and k-${\omega}$ SST are employed to simulate the two-dimensional nozzle flow. Computational results with the turbulence models mentioned fairly well predict shock structure of the nozzle-inside and pressure distribution along the wall. Especially, SST model among the employed ones shows the best agreement to experimental results.

In this study, a series of CFD analyses were carried out for a hydrogen rocket combustor with a single shear coaxial injector. A hybrid RANS/LES approach was used for the turbulent combustion analysis with a two-dimensional axisymmetric configuration. Three reaction mechanisms, three spatial discretization methods, and three levels of grid resolution were compared to determine an appropriate CFD approach. The performance of the CFD prediction were investigated by comparing the wall heat flux with experimental data. Investigation of the flow field results provides an insight into the characteristics of the turbulent reacting flow of a rocket combustor with a shear coaxial injector.
