Tornadic wind flow is inherently turbulent. A turbulent wind flow is characterized by fluctuation of the velocity in the flow field with time, and it is a dynamic process that consists of eddy formation, eddy transportation, and eddy dissipation due to viscosity. Properly modeling turbulence significantly increases the accuracy of numerical simulations. The lack of a clear and detailed comparison between turbulence models used in tornadic wind flows and their effects on tornado induced pressure demonstrates a significant research gap. To bridge this research gap, in this study, two representative turbulence modeling approaches are applied in simulating real-world tornadoes to investigate how the selection of turbulence models affects the simulated tornadic wind flow and the induced pressure on structural surface. To be specific, LES with Smagorinsky-Lilly Subgrid and k-ω are chosen to simulate the 3D full-scale tornado and the tornado-structure interaction with a building present in the computational domain. To investigate the influence of turbulence modeling, comparisons are made of velocity field and pressure field of the simulated wind field and of the pressure distribution on building surface between the cases with different turbulence modeling.

Series of recent k-.epsilon. model modification have been carried out with the aid of DNS data to include the effect of near wall. Though these methods opened new way of turbulence modelings, newly developed turbulence models of its kind had yet shortcomings in prediction for the turbulent flows with various Reynolds numbers and various geometric conditions. As a remedy for these shortcomings, a new k-.epsilon. model proposed here by improving the dissipation rate equation and the damping function for eddy viscosity model. The new dissipation rate equation was modeled based on the energy spectrum and magnitude analysis. The damping function for eddy viscosity was also formulated on the ground of distribution of dissipation rate length scales near a wall and the DNS data. The new k-.epsilon. model was applied to the fully developed turbulent flows in a channel and a pipe with a wide range of Reynolds numbers. Prediction results showed that the present model represents properly the turbulence properties in all turbulent regions over a wide range of Reynolds numbers.

The suitability of high-order accurate, centered and upwind-biased compact difference schemes for large eddy simulation is evaluated by a dynamic analysis. Large eddy simulation of isotropic turbulence is performed with various dissipative and non-dissipative schemes to investigate the effect of numerical dissipation on the resolved solutions. It is shown by the present dynamic analysis that upwind schemes reduce the aliasing error and increase the finite differencing error. The existence of optimal upwind scheme that minimizes total numerical error is verified. It is also shown that the finite differencing error from numerical dissipation is the leading source of numerical errors by upwind schemes. Simulations of a turbulent channel flow are conducted to show the existence of the optimal upwind scheme.

A new eddy viscosity equation was formulated from assumption of turbulence length scale equation and specific dissipation ratio equation. Then, a set of turbulence model equations for the turbulent kinetic energy ${\kappa}$, the viscosity ${\nu}_t$, and the intermittency factor ${\gamma}$ is proposed by considering the entrainment effect. Closure coefficients are determined by experimental data and resorting to numerical optimization. Present model has been applied to compute four representative cases of free shear flows and successfully compared with experimental data. In particular, the spreading rate, the centreline mean velocity and the profiles of intermittency are calculated with improved accuracy. Also, the proposed ${\nu}_t-{\kappa}-{\gamma}$ model was applied to channel flow by considering the wall effect and the results show good agreements with the Direct Numerical Simulation data.

회전-고정자 혼합기 내의 난류 유동은 고속으로 회전하는 회전자와 고정자의 상호작용에 의해 발생되는 전단특성을 기반으로 한다. 본 연구에서는 유화연료 관련 회전-고정자 혼합기 시제품 모델에서 회전자와 고정자간의 상호작용에 의한 비정상상태 유동 특성 분석을 ANSYS FLUENT $k-{\varepsilon}$ (RKE) 난류 모델을 MRF 및 SMM에 적용하여 수행하였다. 회전자와 고정자의 경계에서 발생하는 유동 입자들의 거동과 전단 특성 그리고 설계 파라미터에 따른 속도분포와 난류와류소산 등의 경향을 전산유체역학 해석을 통해 예측 비교하여 모델의 효율성을 검증하였다.

하계 동중국해 북부 대륙붕 해역에서 해수 혼합을 연구하기 위하여 2005년 8월과 2006년 8월에 한국해양연구원 연구선 이어도호를 이용하여 해수 물성 및 난류 관측을 수행하였다. 유속 변형으로부터 산출한 난류운동에너지 소산율은 표층에서 $10^{-7}{\sim}10^{-4}$, 저층에서 $10^{-7}{\sim}10^{-6}$와 수온약층에서 $10^{-7}$ W/kg의 높은 값이 나타났다. 관측 자료는 표층의 경우 바람에 의해 지속적으로 혼합이 이루어짐을 보여주었다. 수온약층 하부에서의 높은 소산율은 내부파의 영향으로 판단된다. 저층의 높은 소산율은 저층의 탁도 분포의 경향과 일치하여 조류에 의한 해저면층 교란의 결과임을 시사해주었다. 바닥에서의 연직확산계수는 낮은 안정도와 높은 난류상태의 복합적인 영향으로 $10^{-3}{\sim}10^{-2}m^2/s$로 높은 값이 나타났다.

Aviation turbulence, caused by atmospheric eddies, is a disruptive phenomenon that leads to abrupt aircraft movements during flight. To minimize the damages caused by such aviation turbulence, the Aviation Meteorological Office provides turbulence information through the Korea aviation Turbulence Guidance (KTG) and the Global-Korean aviation Turbulence Guidance (GKTG). In this study, we evaluated the performance of the KTG and GKTG models by comparing the in-situ EDR observation data and the generated aviation turbulence prediction data collected from the mid-level Korean Peninsula region from January 2019 to December 2021. Through objective validation, we confirmed the level of prediction performance and proposed improvement measures based on it. As a result of the improvements, the KTG model showed minimal difference in performance before and after the changes, while the GKTG model exhibited an increase of TSS after the improvements.

We present a simulation of a hybrid Reynolds-averaged Navier Stokes / Large Eddy Simulation (RANS/LES) based on detached eddy simulation (DES) for a Burrows and Kurkov supersonic planar mixing experiment. The preliminary simulation results are checked in order to validate the numerical computing capability of the current code. Mesh refinement studies are performed to identify the minimum grid size required to accurately capture the flow physics. A detailed investigation of the turbulence/chemistry interaction is carried out for a nine species 19-step hydrogen-air reaction mechanism. In contrast to the instantaneous value, the simulated time-averaged result inside the reactive shear layer underpredicts the maximum rise in $H_2O$ concentration and total temperature relative to the experimental data. The reason for the discrepancy is described in detail. Combustion parameters such as OH mass fraction, flame index, scalar dissipation rate, and mixture fraction are analyzed in order to study the flame structure.

조류와 취송류의 비선형 상호작용에 대한 연직확산계수의 영향을 점모형을 이용하여 살펴보았다. q$^2$-q$^2$1 난류모형을 난류운동에너지의 생성과 감쇄가 균형을 이룬다는 가정 하에 단순화한 0-방정식 난류모형을 도입하고 마찰수심의 영향을 적절히 반영하도록 수정하여 연직확산계수를 산정하였다. 0-방정식 난류모형의 유도과정과 전향력 항이 포함됨으로써 공진이 발생될 수 있음을 제시하였다. 왕복성 수면경사력과 바람응력이 복합된 경우, 고려된 바람응력에 의한 조류 진폭의 변화는 무시할만한 크기였으나, 왕복성 수면경사력만에 의해서는 발생되지 않았던 2배조의 조류 성분이 파생되었다. 취송류의 연직구조는 조류에 의한 배경난류가 지배적인지의 여부에 따라 상당한 차이를 보였다. 따라서 황해와 같이 강한 조류가 존재하는 해역의 취송순환을 파악함에 있어 조류에 의한 배경난류를 무시할 경우는 실제와는 상당히 다른 결과가 나타날 수 있다.
