  • A surface piercing propeller (SPP) in tunnel has been proposed recently as a new propulsion system for a high speed air cavity ship. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the characteristics of the SPP in tunnel through a series of model tests. A model propulsion system is placed on a dummy body made of Acrylics. The tunnel is divided into two regions by a guide vane extending from the inlet to the center of the propeller shaft. Air has been supplied from an air nozzle placed at the bottom of the dummy body and the changes in propeller performances caused by the air flow are investigated. The measurements are done for open water and in-tunnel conditions, both for fully and partially submerged propeller. The influence of the guide vane configurations on the propeller performance is also studied. The experiments are performed at the variable pressure circulation water channel of Inha University

  • This paper presents an experimental study on the effectiveness of viscous-damping walls in controlling the wind-induced vibrations of a building model. A simple four-story building model, square in plan, was constructed for wind tunnel study. In this paper the description of the model, its instrumentation, and the experimental set-up and methodology are reported. The effectiveness of viscous-damping walls in reducing vibrations was investigated for different fluid levels in the walls, and at varying wind speeds and attack angles. The results show that viscous-damping walls are highly effective in most cases.

  • This paper is results of experimental and nunerical works on the behavior of the cut-and-cover tunnel. Centrifuge model tests were performed to simulate the behavior of the cut-and-cover tunnels having cross sections of national road and subway tunnels. Model experiments were carried out with changing the cut slope and the slope of filling ground surface. Displacements of tunnel lining resulted from artificially accelerated gravitational force up to 40g of covered material used in model tests, were measured during centrifuge model tests. In model tests, Jumunjin Standard Sand with the relative density of 80 % and the zinc plates were used for the covered material and the flexible tunnel lining, respectively. Basic soil property tests were performed to obtain it's the property of Jumumjin Standard Sand. Shear strength parameters of Jumunjin Standard Sand were obtained by performing the triaxial compression tests. Direct shear tests were also carried out to find the mechanical properties of the interface between the lining and the covered material. Numerical analysis with the commercially available program of FLAC were performed to compare with results of centrifuge model experiment In numerical modelling. Mohr-Coulomb elasto-plastic constitutive model was used to simulaye the behavoor of Jumunjin Standard Sand and the interface element between the lining and the covered material was implemented to simulate the interaction between them. Compared results between model tests and numerical estimation with respect to displacement of the lining showed in good agreements.

  • It is easier to view flow visualization by using a water tunnel rather than a smoke wind tunnel because of low speed at same Reynolds number. Using a water tunnel also produces more definite flow visualization by the use of various color dyes. The flow uniformity in test section is very significant for accuracy of the test because most flow experiments elicit results through the installation of a model in uniform flow. The purpose of small-size desktop-type water tunnel is not to produce quantitative measurements, but rather to give a visualization of the fluid flow phenomenon. However, uniformity in the test section affects the accuracy of the results. Accordingly, this research estimates uniformity in a water tunnel test section by using the commercially available CFD code FLUENT. Results of the CFD analysis show that the flow uniformity of the test section is good.

  • This study proposes a few-shot learning model for extrapolating the wind pressure of scaled experiments to full-scale measurements. The proposed ML model can use scaled experimental data and a few full-scale tests to accurately predict the remaining full-scale data points (for new specimens). This model focuses on extrapolating the prediction to different scales while existing approaches are not capable of accurately extrapolating from scaled data to full-scale data in the wind engineering domain. Also, the scaling issue observed in wind tunnel tests can be partially resolved via the proposed approach. The proposed model obtained a low mean-squared error and a high coefficient of determination for the mean and standard deviation wind pressure coefficients of the full-scale dataset. A parametric study is carried out to investigate the influence of the number of selected shots. This technique is the first of its kind as it is the first time an ML model has been used in the wind engineering field to deal with extrapolation in wind performance prediction. With the advantages of the few-shot learning model, physical wind tunnel experiments can be reduced to a great extent. The few-shot learning model yields a robust, efficient, and accurate alternative to extrapolating the prediction performance of structures from various model scales to full-scale.

  • 도로터널내 화재가 발생한 경우 자연환기와 종류식 환기시스템에서의 연기유동에 대한 연구가 수행되었다. Froude Scaling에 기초한 1/18 축적의 축소모형실험장치가 제작되었으며, 화원으로는 연료심지를 이용한 14.55kW 규모의 연소기가 사용되었다. 화원으로부터 등비간격으로 터널천정부근과 수직방향의 온도분포가 측정되었으며, 연소가스의 농도가 피난대피구 입구에서 측정되었다. 연구결과로서 자연환기시스템에서 비상대피구가 225m 간격으로 설치되어 있을 경우 비상대피구 구간의 연기확산시간은 256초가 되며, 20MW의 화재강도에 대해 화염역류를 완전히 방지하기 위해서는 터널풍속을 2.8m/s로 형성해 주어야 한다.

  • 본 연구에서는 터널 지보재의 거동을 전기펄스를 이용한 계측 시스템인 TDR센서를 이용하여 파악하고자 하였다. 터널 지보재의 거동을 파악하기 위해 먼저 구리테이프를 TDR센서의 계측재료로 이용하여 터널 지보재에 설치하기 위한 제작기법에 대해 연구하였다. 그 결과 구리테이프의 상부에 유리테이프, 하부에 스티로폼+전자파 차단시트를 설치했을 때 TDR센서의 민감도가 적절했고 노이즈 발생량도 적었다. PVC파이프 터널모형단면을 통해 단면의 강성과 지점 조건에 따라 데이터의 형태가 어떠한 경향을 나타내는 지 확인할 수 있었다. 이는 실제 현장에 구리테이프를 이용하여 터널 지보재의 거동을 정확히 파악하기 위해서는 지보재의 강성과 지점 조건을 현장과 동일하게 하여야 함을 알 수 있었다. TDR데이터와 유한요소해석과의 비교를 통해 TDR센서를 이용하여 터널의 거동을 파악할 수 있음을 알 수 있다. TDR데이터를 통해 지보재의 변형을 정성적으로 파악할 수 있고, 응력과 변형률 관계를 통해 지보재의 부재력까지 파악할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • 지하철의 터널구간에서 화재가 발생하였을 때의 연기전파거리를 측정하였다. 대상은 길이 800m, 단면 $8{\times}5.5m$의 전형적인 지하철 터널로 3개의 급배기 겸용 샤프트가 설치되어 있으며 실험은 1/50의 축소모형을 이용하였다. 연기전파거리 측정을 위하여 열전대와 가시화 기법을 동시에 사용하여 정확도를 확보하였다. 급배기량과 화재크기가 연기전파거리에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여 9개의 조건을 대상으로 실험하였다. 실험결과 분석을 통하여 지하철터널의 배연 설계에 있어서 연기전파거리가 주요 설계요소가 될 수 있음을 밝혔다.

  • 부분배연설비를 가지고 있는 침매터널에서 화재시 배연효율을 분석하기위해 풀화재를 이용하여 축소모형실험을 수행하였다. 화재가 발생하였을 때 주위 유동이 없는 경우인 자연배연과 임계속도로 제트팬을 가동하는 강제배연의 경우에 터널내의 온도와 연소가스 농도를 측정하였다. 자연배연에 비해 강제배연은 화재발생 초기에 화원과 터널 내 기류와의 급격한 혼합에 의해 성층화 정도가 미미해지고 보다 낮은 온도를 화원주위에서 얻을 수 있었다. 이러한 급격한 혼합은 터널 상부에 위치한 부분제연 갤러리의 효율을 변화시키는데, 자연배연인 경우에 약 30%의 배연효율이 증가되었다. 일산화탄소 농도계측으로 얻어진 배연효율은 등온기체모델을 사용한 선행연구와 비교하여 거의 일치하는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 침매터널 화재시 승객의 안전한 대피를 위한 부분배연설비의 최적 운전방안으로 제시된다.
