This study investigated torque characteristics for Couette flow experimentally under circumstaces that ferrofluids were between two coaxial spheres. Torque measurement was obtained for the situation where the inner sphere was rotating while the outer sphere was kept stationary. The magnetic field was imposed on the fluid, using a bar magnet which was inserted in the inner sphere. In the laminar flow region the torque increase when the magnetic field is applied and the critical Reynolds number is increased. However, in the transition regime, the effect of the magnetic field on the torque characteristics decrease as Reynolds number increases. The value of torque were the same as those of glycerine solution beyond the cirtical Reynolds number. We also made experimental equation which could obtain coefficient of torque within critical Reynolds number in terms of sphere spacing Reynolds number and magnetic properties of ferrofluid.

It is known that previous models are unsatisfactory in predicting adverse pressure gradient turbulent flows. In the present paper, a revised low Reynolds number $k-{\varepsilon}$ model is proposed. In this model, a newly developed term is added lo the dissipation rate equation. In order to reflect appropriate effects for an adverse pressure gradient. The added tenn is derived by considering the distribution of mean velocity and turbulent properties in the turbulent flow with, adverse pressure gradient. The new $k-{\varepsilon}$ model was applied to calculations of flat plate flow with adverse pressure gradient, conical diffuser flow and backward facing step flow. It was found that the three numerical results showed better agreement than other models compared with DNS results and experimental ones.

Reynolds equation, which describes behavior of fluid film in journal bearings, basically satisfies mass conservation. But, boundary conditions usually used with this equation, e.g. half Sommerfeld or Reynolds boundary conditions, cannot fulfill this natural law of conservation. In the case of connecting rod bearing, where applied load is dynamic and its magnitude is relatively large, such unrealistic boundary conditions have serious influence on calculation results, especially on lubricant flow rate or power disspation which are important parameters in thermal analysis. In this paper, mass-conserving boundary condition was applied in the finite element analysis of connecting rod bearings. Lubricant flow rate and power dissipation rate were calculated together with journal center locus, minimum film thickness and maxmium film pressure. These computation results were compared with those of the case of Reynolds boundary condition. Balance between inlet and outlet flow rate was well achieved in the case of mass-conserving boundary condition.

This paper presents a Reynolds equation solver for hydrostatic gas bearings, implemented to run on graphics processing units (GPUs). The original analysis code for the central processing unit (CPU) was modified for the GPU by using the compute unified device architecture (CUDA). The red-black Gauss-Seidel (RBGS) algorithm was employed instead of the original Gauss-Seidel algorithm for the iterative pressure solver, because the latter has data dependency between neighboring nodes. The implemented GPU program was tested on the nVidia GTX580 system and compared to the original CPU program on the AMD Llano system. In the iterative pressure calculation, the implemented GPU program showed 20-100 times faster performance than the original CPU codes. Comparison of the wall-clock times including all of pre/post processing codes showed that the GPU codes still delivered 4-12 times faster performance than the CPU code for our target problem.

The viscous flow around a ship hull is calculated by the use of RANS(Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes) solver. Reynolds stresses are midelled by using the k-${epsilon}$ turbulence model and the law is applied near the body. Body fitted corrdinates are introduced for the treatment of the complex boundary of the ship hull form and the governing equations in the physical domain transformed into ones in the computational domain. The transformed equations are numerically solved by an employment of FVM(Finite Volume Method). SIMPLE(Semi-Implicit Pressure Linked Equation) method is adopted in the calculation of pressure and the solution of the sidcretized equation is obtained by the line-by-line method with the use of TDMA(Tri-Diagonal Matrix Algorithme). To assure the proprietty of this computing method, HSVA tanker and Dyne hull are calculated ar both model and ship scale Reynolds number. Their reaults of pressure distributions on fore and aft body, axial velocity contours and transverse velocity velocity vectors and viscous resistance coefficients are compared with other's experiments and calculations.

레이놀즈수에 대한 투수층흐름 마찰계수의 관계식을 개발하고자 투수층수조 실험을 실시하였다. 사용된 투수층수조는 물이 거의 수평으로 흐르도록 유도하는 장치이다. 각 구간마다 수두의 변화로 한번의 실험으로 다양한 수리조건을 재현할 수 있는 포괄성을 갖고 있으며, 여러 조의 수리실험을 실시하였다. 보다 광범위한 수리조건을 재현하기 위하여 여러 크기의 골재를 사용하였고 유출량도 다양하게 송출하였다. 기존자료를 이용하여 형상계수 산정식을 개발하였으며, 금번 수조실험의 결과를 이용하여 레이놀즈수가 1부터 600까지의 조건에서 투수층흐름 마찰계수를 구하는 양해법 산정식을 개발하였다. 관측된 마찰계수의 분포경향을 고려하였을 때, 레이놀즈수가 600보다 큰 난류조건에서도 동일 산정식을 사용할 수 있으리라 기대된다.

본 연구는 조도보정 블록수로에서의 체적밀집도를 정의하고, 평균유속(V)과 수리반경(R)의 곱인 VR, 블록 Reynolds수($Re^*$), 항력계수($\acute{C}_D$) 및 바닥전단특성의 바닥조도계수($n_b$)를 분석하여 조도계수(n)를 산정하였다. VR과 블록Reynolds수가 증가함에 따라 조도계수가 감소하여 일정함에 수렴하는 경험적인 양상을 확인하였다. 블록Reynolds수의 증가에 따라 항력계수는 감소하여 일정한 값에 수렴하는 것으로 나타났다. 블록Reynolds수가 큰 난류구간에서는 항력계수는 밀집도로 정의한 조도블록의 형상에 지배적임을 볼 수 있다. 정확한 조도계수의 산정을 위해서는 블록Reynolds수와 체적밀집도에 의한 상관식의 개발이 요구된다. n-VR, $\acute{C}_D-Re^*$, $n_b-\acute{C}_D$상관에 대한 관계곡선식을 제시하였다. 조도계수를 산정할 수 있는 블록Reynolds수와 체적밀집도와의 상관관계식을 제시하였다. 실험결과를 토대로 블록Reynolds수와 체적밀집도에 의한 조도 계수 산정식을 이용한 HEC-RAS의 수리특성 분석결과는 실험결과와 잘 일치함을 보여주어 산정한 조도계수 추정식의 적용성을 확인하였다.

This paper presents the comparison analysis of a Journal and thrust FDB (fluid dynamic bearing) and a conical FDB in a HDD spindle motor. The Reynolds equation is appropriately transformed to describe journal, thrust and conical bearing. Finite element method is applied to analyze the FDB by satisfying the continuity of mass and pressure at the interface between the hearings. The pressure field of the bearings is numerically approximated by applying the Reynolds boundary condition. The load and friction torque are obtained by integrating the pressure and the velocity gradient along the fluid film. The flying height of the spindle motor is measured to verify the proposed analytical result. This research shows that the conical bearing generates bigger load capacity and less friction torque than the journal and thrust bearing in a HDD spindle motor.

Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) is performed for developing turbulent flow of the $270^{\circ}$ curved duct at a Reynolds number of 56,690. The curvature ratio on the basis of a centric radius $R_c$ and a duct height H is 3.357. Turbulence models adopted are k-$\omega$ model for Reynolds Average Navier-Stokes (RANS) equation Simulation and Shear Stress Transport (SST) model for DES. DES is used as the hybrid computation technique combined with RANS-SST and Large Eddy Simulation (LES). Predicted results are compared with measured results including the distributions of Reynolds stresses and the flow characteristics on the symmetric plane of curved duct are presented. Judging from the comparison between the predicted and the measured results, the DES approach is applicable to calculate the developing turbulent flow in a $270^{\circ}$ curved duct.
