The wake characteristics of Contra-Rotating Propeller (CRP) were investigated using numerical simulation and flow measurement. The numerical simulation was carried out with a commercial CFD code based on a Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations solver, and the flow measurement was performed with Stereoscopic Particle Image Velocimetry (SPIV) system. The simulation results were validated through the comparison with the experiment results measured around the leading edge of rudder to investigate the effect of propeller operation under the conditions without propeller, with forward propeller alone, and with both forward and aft propellers. The evolution of CRP wake was analyzed through velocity and vorticity contours on three transverse planes and one longitudinal plane based on CFD results. The trajectories of propeller tip vortex core in the cases with and without aft propeller were also compared, and larger wake contraction with CRP was confirmed.

In the present work, a numerical study of fluid flow and heat transfer on the concave surface with impinging jet has been performed by solving three-dimensional Reynods-averaged Naver-Stokes(RANS) equations. The constant temperature condition was applied to the concave impingement surface. The inclination angle of jet nozzle and the distance between jet nozzles are chosen as design variables under equivalent mass flow rate of working fluid into cooling channel, and area averaged Nusselt number on concave impingement surface is set as the objective function. Thirteen training points are obtained by Latin Hypercube sampling method, and the PEA model is constructed by using the objective function values at the trainging points. And, the sequential quadratic programming is used to search for the optimal paint from the PBA model. Through the optimization, the optimal shape shows improved heat transfer rate as compared to the reference geometry.

Shape of a multi-blades centrifugal fan is optimized by response surface method based on three-dimensional Navier-Stokes analysis. For numerical analysis, Reynolds-averaged Wavier-Stokes equations with standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model are transformed into non-orthogonal curvilinear coordinate system, and are discretized with finite volume approximations. Due to the large number of blades in this centrifugal fan, the flow inside of the fan is regarded as steady flow by introducing the impeller force models for economic calculations. Optimizations with and without constraints are carried out. Design variables, location of cur off, radius of cut off, expansion angle of scroll and width of impeller were selected to optimize the shapes of scroll and blades. Data points for response evaluations were selected by D-optimal design, and linear programming method was used for the optimization on the response surface. As a main result of the optimization, the efficiency was successfully improved. The correlation of efficiency with relative size of inactive zone at the exit of impeller is discussed as well as with average momentum fluxes in the scroll.

하이드라진(N2H4) 아크젯 추력기의 열화학 유동장 해석을 위한 전산유체해석을 수행하였다. 열복사와 전기장이 고려된 압축성 유동해석을 위해서 RANS 방정식을 수정하여 사용하였다. 로렌츠 힘과 Ohm 가열효과를 고려한 Maxwell 방정식이 유동방정식과 결합되어 전기 방전으로 인한 전기장해석을 위해 이용되었다. 아크젯 추력기 내부에서 유동장은 충분히 고온상태이기에 화학평형 해석이 이용되었으며, 광학 두께를 이용한 열복사 모델이 유동방정식에 적용되었다. 계산 결과들은 아크젯 추력기유동이 동결유동에 비해 추력은 180%증가되며, 비추력은 200%가까이 상승됨을 보여준다. 또한 유동장 해석 결과들은 아크젯 추력기 내부의 열적 물리적 특성에 대한 이해를 돕는다.

In the present work, flow characteristics analysis has been performed for steam turbine bypass control valve (single-path type). The numerical analysis is performed by solving three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations. Shear stress transport (SST) model is used as turbulence closure. Symmetry condition is applied at the mid plane of the valve while adiabatic condition is used at the outer wall of the cage. Grid independency test is performed to find the optimal number of grid points. The pressure and temperature distributions on the outer wall of the cage are analyzed. Mass flow rate at maximum plug opening condition is compared with the designed mass flow rate.

A computer code for solving the Reynolds averaged full Navier-Stokes equations has bent developed for analysis of gas and steam turbine cascade flows with the option of using one of two types of turbulence model. One is the Baldwin-Lomax model and the other is standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ model. The numerical integration is based on the explicit four stage Runge-Kutta scheme and finite volume method. To be verified, the resulting code is applied to VKI turbine cascade and compared with the previous experimental results. Finally, the flowfield around a steam turbine cascade is analyzed. Comparisons with experimental data show that present numerical scheme is an accurate Navier-Stokes solver and can give very good predictions for both gas and steam turbine cascade flow.

This paper presents the response surface optimization method using three-dimensional Navier-Stokes Analysis to optimize the shape of a axial flow fan. Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with k-$\epsilon$ turbulence model are discretized with finite volume approximations. Regression analysis is used for generating response surface, and it is validated by ANOVA. Five geometric variables, i.e., distribution of sweep angle at mean and tip, lean angle at mean and tip, and spanwise location of mean were employed to optimize the efficiency. The computational results are compared with experiment data. As a main result of the optimization, the efficiency was successfully improved.

본 연구는 다공성 구조물과의 파랑의 상호 작용을 수치모의하기 위한 비정수압 수치모형인 SWASH를 소개한다. 이 수치모형은 ${\sigma}$-좌표계에 Volume Averaged Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes(VARANS)을 지배방정식으로 다공성 매체에서의 유동을 계산한다. 다공성 매체에서의 유동을 고려하기 위해 사용된 경험적 저항 계수는 보정 작업이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 수치모형에 사용된 경험적 저항 계수를 다공성 매체를 통과하는 댐 붕괴 실험과 다공성 구조물과 고립파의 상호 작용에 대한 실험을 이용하여 보정 및 검증하였다. 실험 결과와 수치실험 결과는 비교적 잘 일치하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 비정수압 수치모형인 SWASH가 VOF 접근법을 기반으로 하는 3차원 다공성 유동 모델보다 계산상 훨씬 더 효율적이라는 것이 확인되었다.
