본 연구에서는 평판 경계층의 천이 영역에서 평균속도, 표면마찰계수, 간헐도 분포, 에너지 스펙트럼 등의 신뢰성 있는 실험 자료를 획득하였다. 실험 결과 천이가 진행됨에 따라 난류반점이 지배하는 영역이 벽면 근처에서 전 경계층으로 확산되었으며 이러한 현상의 결과로 속도 섭동량에서 비등방성이 크게 나타난다. 천이 이전영역에서는 에너지가 주로 저주파에 집중되어 있다가 천이를 거치면서 에너지가 고주파 성분으로 이동하였다 이는 두 가지 이상의 에너지 발생과 소멸 메커니즘이 천이영역에서 공존하고 있음을 의미한다. 따라서 천이영역에서의 유동장을 예측하기 위한 난류 계산 모형에서 비등방성과 서로 다른 메커니즘을 표현할 수 있기 위해서는 반드시 두 가지 이상의 척도를 표현할 수 있어야 한다.

In the nuclear power plant, emergency core coolant system (ECCS) is furnished at reactor coolant system (RCS) in order to cool down high temperature water in case of emergency. However, in this coolant system, thermal stratification phenomenon can occur due to coolant leaking in the check valve. The thermal stratification produces excessive thermal stresses at the pipe wall so as to yield thermal fatigue crack (TFC) accident. In the present study, effects of turbulence penetration on the thermal stratification into T-branches with square cross-section in the modeled ECCS are analysed numerically. $textsc{k}$-$\varepsilon$ model is employed to calculate the Reynolds stresses in momentum equations. Results show that the length and strength of thermal stratification are primarily affected by the leak flow rate of coolant and the Reynolds number of the main flow in the duct. Turbulence penetration into the T-branch of ECCS shows two counteracting effects on the thermal stratification. Heat transport by turbulence penetration from the main duct to leaking flow region may enhance thermal stratification while the turbulent diffusion may weaken it.

Free-space optical (FSO) communication is considered to be a potential solution to congestion in the radio-frequency spectrum and last-mile-access bottleneck issues in future cellular communication networks, such as 5G and beyond. However, FSO link performance may degrade significantly due to irradiance fluctuations and random temporal fluctuations from atmospheric turbulence. Therefore, in this work the main objective is to reduce the effect of the atmospheric turbulence by considering a multihop FSO communication system with amplify-and-forward relaying supported by a radio-frequency (RF) link, which form a hybrid FSO/RF communication system. The FSO link is assumed to follow the gamma-gamma fading model, which represents strong turbulence. Also, the RF link is modeled by a Rayleigh distribution. The performance of the considered system, in terms of the outage probability and average bit-error rate (BER), is investigated and analyzed under various weather conditions and pointing errors. Furthermore, the effect of the number of employed relay nodes on the performance of the system is investigated. The results indicate that the considered system reduces outage probability and average BER significantly, especially for low channel quality. Finally, the closed-form expressions derived in this work are compared to the results of Monte Carlo simulations, for verification.

In this paper a computation of turbulent natural convection in enclosures with the elliptic-blending based differential and algebraic flux models is presented. The primary emphasis of the study is placed on an investigation of accuracy of the treatment of turbulent heat fluxes with the elliptic-blending second-moment closure for the turbulent natural convection flows. The turbulent heat fluxes in this study are treated by the elliptic-blending based algebraic and differential flux models. The previous turbulence model constants are adjusted to produce accurate solutions. The proposed models are applied to the prediction of turbulent natural convections in a 1:5 rectangular cavity and in a square cavity with conducting top and bottom walls, which are commonly used for validation of the turbulence models. The relative performance between the algebraic and differential flux model is examined through comparing with experimental data. It is shown that both the elliptic-blending based models predict well the mean velocity and temperature, thereby the wall shear stress and Nusselt number. It is also shown that the elliptic-blending based algebraic flux model produces solutions which are as accurate as those by the differential flux model.

본 연구에서는 중층 밀도류를 모의할 수 있는 $k-{\varepsilon}$ 난류모형의 지배방정식을 제시하고 수치모의를 수행하였다. 깊은 수체에 모형을 적용하여 중층 밀도류를 모의하고 게산된 유속과 초과밀도 분포를 분석하였다. 밀도류의 주 흐름방향을 따라 물 연행으로 인해 유속이 감소되는 것과 Richardson 수의 증가로 인해 유속 변화율이 감소되는 것을 관찰하였다. 유속과 초과밀도의 유사성을 확인하였으나, 난류운동에너지와 소산율의 유사성에서는 보이지 않았다. $k-{\varepsilon}$ 모형의 모의 결과를 이용하여 중층 밀도류의 층적분 모형에서 사용될 수 있는 형상계수를 계산하였다. 또한, 층적분 모형을 이용하여 $k-{\varepsilon}$ 모형에서 사용되는 부력관련 모형상수 ($c_{3{\varepsilon}}$)와 부피팽창계수 (${\beta}_0$)를 계산하였다.

용존공기부상법이란 오염물에 미세기포를 부착하여 수표면으로 부상시킴으로써 이를 제거하는 수처리 방법이다. 본 연구에서는 난류모델에 따른 용존공기부상조 내부 유동해석의 변화를 고찰하기 위해 물과 기포의 혼합물에 대한 2상 유동을 모사하였다. 이때, 주어진 용존공기부상조 형상 및 조건에 대하여 다양한 난류모델에 따른 용존공기부상법 내부의 미세기포 분포량, 계산시간 및 수렴성 등을 비교하였으며, 그 결과 기존에 주로 사용되었던 표준 ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ 모델이 타 난류모델과는 다른 거동을 예측하는 것으로 확인되었다.

This paper reports the characteristics of the three dimensional turbulent flow in the 180 degree bends with decreasing cross-sectional area by numerical method. Calculated pressure and velocity, Reynolds stress distributions are compared to the experimental data. Turbulence model employed are low Reynolds number k-epsilon model and algebraic stress model. The results show that the main vortex generated from the inlet part of the bend maintained to outlet of the bend because of the contraction of cross-sectional area. The rate of increase of turbulent kinetic energy through the bend are lower than that of mean flow. Secondary flow strength of the flow is lower about 60% than that of square duct flow.

In engineering application of large eddy simulation, there are still questions as follows grid dependency on numerical results, the effect of upwind scheme against a calculation instability, appropriate boundary conditions dealing with turbulence fluctuation and the performance of SGS models. In this study, in order to develop the LES to the engineering application, large eddy simulation was carried out to investigate the effect of upwind scheme, turbulent subgrid model and the grid dependancy of the flow around a wall-mounted cube in a channel at Re=40,000 based on cubic height and bulk mean velocity. The computed velocities, turbulence quantities, separation and reattachment length were evaluated compared with the experimental results of R. Matinuzzi and C. Tropea.

In the present work, we have interests on the modification of parallel implemented with MPI(Message Passing Interface) programming method, 3-Dimensional, unsteady, incompressible Navier-Stokes equation solver to analyze the low-Reynolds number flow In order to accurate calculation aerodynamic coefficients in low-Reynolds number flow field, we modified the two-equation turbulence model. This paper describes the development and validation of a new two-equation model for the prediction of flow transition. It is based on Mentor's low Reynolds $\kappa-\omega$ model with modifications to include Total Stresses Limitation (TSL) and Separation Transition Trigger (STT)

A numerical study was made to choose the better turbulence model for the flow in the discharge flow path from a diffuser to a wall. In this study standard $\kappa-\epsilon$ model(SKE), RNG $\kappa-\epsilon$ model(RNG), and Reynolds stress model(RSM) were applied. In case of the flow with relatively high Reynolds number at a diffuser inlet, the pressure loss coefficients by RNG have a tendency to be near to those by SKE at small ratio(below about 0.35) of $h/D_o$, but to those by RSM at large ratio(above about 0.35). At large ratio RNG begins to enlarge the effects of rapid strain and streamline curvature. RNG & RSM are recommended as the appropriate turbulence models for this case. But it is noticeable that the velocity gradient pattern in RNG is same as in SKE, and also that the total pressure distribution in RNG is same as in RSM only at swirling flow area, same as in SKE only at main flow area.
