Flow characteristics of two-dimensional closed square cavities near unsteady critical Reynolds numbers were studied numerically at four Reynolds numbers : $8{\times}10^3,\;8.5{\times}10^3,\;9{\times}10^3\;and\;9.5{\times}10^3.$ A convection conservative difference scheme based upon SOLA to maintain the nearly 2nd-order spatial accuracy is adopted on irregular grid formation. Irregular grid number is $80{\times}80$ and its minimum size is about 1/400 of the cavity height(H) and its maximum is about 1/53 H. The result shows that the critical Reynolds number indicating the emergence of flow wnsteadiness is ranging from Re=$8{\times}10^3\;to\;8.5{\times}10^3$ and their flow patterns reveal periodic fluctuation during transient and fully developed stages. But macroscopic flow behavior in terms of instantaneous and time-mean characteristics represent remarkable difference.

Two-dimensional lid-driven closed flows within square cavity were studied numerically for four Reynolds numbers : $10^4$, 3$\times10^4$, 5$\times10^4$ and 7.5$\times10^4$. A convective difference scheme to maintain the same spatial accurary by irregular grid correction is adopted by applying the interior division principle. Grid number is $80\times80$and its minimum size is about 1/400 of the cavity height. At Re=$10^4$, periodic migration of small eddies appearing in corner separation region and its temporal sinusoidal fluctuation are represented. At three higher Reynolds numbers(3$\times10^4$, 5$\times10^4$ and 7.5$\times10^4$), an organizing structure of four consecutive vorticles at two lower corners is revealed from time-mean flow patterns. But, instantaneous flow characteristics show very random unsteady fluctuation mainly due to the interaction between rotating shed vortices and stationary eddies within the corners.

As a follow-up of our previous studies on flow-induced forces on two identical nearby circular cylinders immersed in the cross flow at Re=100 and flow patterns past them,$^{(1,2)}$ we present Reynolds-number effects on the forces and patterns by further computing flows with Re=40, 50, 160. We consider all possible arrangements of the two circular cylinders in terms of the distance between the two cylinders and the angle inclined with respect to the main flow direction. Collecting all the numerical results obtained, we propose contour diagrams for mean force coefficients and their rms of fluctuation as well as for flow patterns and Strouhal number for each Re. These diagrams shed light on a comprehensive picture on how the wake interaction between the two cylinders alters depending on Re.

하천에서 호안이나 교량의 교각 등은 홍수 시 주변 하상의 세굴에 의한 피해가 많이 발생한다. 하상보호를 위해서 하천 수공구조물 주변 하상에 자갈, 호박돌, 전석 등을 깔기도 한다. 이 재료들은 다공성 집단을 이루며 유수에 의한 소류력과 항력이 작용한다. 다공성 집단체 공극의 흐름에 의한 항력은 외부 흐름이 가하는 소류력에 비해 작으나 집단의 안정성에 큰 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 집단체에 작용하는 항력은 공극 내의 흐름의 유속과 항력계수를 이용하여 구할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 다공성 매질 내 흐름에 대한 항력계수를 조사하기 위하여 수리실험을 이용하여 자갈 매질의 공극을 흐르는 물이 일으킨 항력과 동수경사를 측정하였다. 수리실험을 위한 대공극 매질은 상업용 연마 자갈을 사용하여 크기에 따라 작은 자갈(5~10mm), 중간자갈(15~25mm), 큰 자갈(25~50mm)로 구분하였다. 대표입경 D₅₀은 작은 자갈 8.0 mm, 중간 자갈 17.6 mm, 큰 자갈 32.2 mm이고, 형상계수는 각각 0.28~0.74, 0.29~0.58, 0.38~0.68의 범위였다. 자갈 매질의 공극율은 각각 0.405~0.422이었다. 매질 내의 흐름 길이는 24.2cm로 하였다. 실험결과 자갈 매질 내 흐름의 입자 레이놀즈수 Re_p에 따른 내부항력 F_D와 항력계수 C_D는 Fig. 1 및 Fig. 2와 같다. 실험에서 Re_p는 31.5~3,175.4였다. 자갈 매질의 내부항력은 Re_p가 증가하면 비선형적으로 증가하였으며 입자가 클수록 작았다. 항력계수는 작은 자갈과 중간 자갈 매질에 차이가 거의 없었으나 큰 자갈의 경우 작은 것으로 나타났다.

The flow field around baffle located sudden expansion and contraction channel was measured by PIV method and the effect according to height change of baffle built in the flow field was evaluated. The inlet flow velocity and the baffle height influence mutually to the size and flow pattern of the recycle flow of the back of the baffle and the size of the area of the water power jump passing the upper part of the baffle. In case of Reynolds number $Re=4{\times}10^3$, the critical value of baffle height is estimated around h/H=1.6 and there was a decreasing tendency as the inlet flow velocity was increased.

The experimental study of the hull surface roughness on a developing turbulent boundary layer which exposed to a variety of operating environments were investigated by performing particle image velocimetry(PIV) in a circulating water channel. The Reynolds number based on the width of roughness was about Re=1000. the roughness elements used were periodically arranged two-dimensionally. the flow visualization, time-mean velocity fields and vorticity fields to measure the flow characteristics were obtained. The investigation shows that the vortex generation and its progress inside the walls. And the center of the vortex was located at the middle of the height of the surface roughness.

The virtual mass of net is an important parameter in the analysis and control of net movement in the water. This experiment was performed with the purpose of getting a relation on the quantity of netting and virtual mass of trawl nets using the circulating water channel that can control flow speed. Twelve types of conical nets were examined. Resistance of the conical net at the steady and acceleration state was recorded as text on the personal computer through the tension meter and current meter. The results were obtained as follows ;1. Resistance(R) of the conical net is proportional to the degree of attack angle in the sam e amount of twine material.2. Coefficient of the resistance(Cd)could be defined by the following regression model as a function of Reynolds Number(Re). Cd=0.039Re-0.14743. Resistance(R) is proportional to TSA(Twine surface area) and defined as follows; R=21.398TSA-0.12194. Coefficient of virtual mass(CM) could be calculated by the following first order regression model. CM=37.557U-8.96845. Virtual mass is directly proportional to Volume of net(V) or d/l.

Turbulent flow around a rotating circular cylinder is investigated by Direct Numerical Simulation. The calculation is performed at three cases of low Reynolds number, Re=161, 348 and 623, based on the cylinder radius and friction velocity. Statistically strong similarities with fully developed channel flow are observed. Instantaneous flow visualization reveals that the turbulence length scale typically decreases as Reynolds number increases. Some insight into the spacial characteristics in conjunction with wave number is provided by wavelet analysis. The budget of dissipation rate as well as turbulent kinetic energy is computed and particular attention is given to the comparison with plane channel flow.

Large eddy simulation(LES) of fully developed turbulent pipe flow has been performed to investigate the effect of Reynolds number on the flow field at $Re_{\tau}$=180, 395, 590 based on friction velocity and pipe radius. A dynamic subgrid-scale model for the turbulent subgrid-scale stresses was employed to close the governing equations. The mean flow properties, mean velocity profiles and turbulent intensities obtained from the present LES are in good agreement with the previous numerical and experimental results currently available. The Reynolds number effects were observed in the mean velocity profile, root-mean-square of velocity fluctuations, Reynolds shear stress and turbulent viscosity.

A dynamic subgrid-scale model for the turbulent subgrid-scale stresses was employed to close the governing equations. The mean flow properties, mean velocity profiles and turbulent intensities obtained from the present LES are in good agreement with the previous numerical and experimental results currently available. The Reynolds number effects were observed in the higher-order statistics(Skewness and Flatness factor). Furthermore, the budgets of the Reynolds stresses and turbulent kinetic energy were computed and analyzed to elucidate the effect of Reynolds number on the turbulent structures.
