  • A three-dimensional computation is conducted to simulate a three-dimensional rotating stall in a low speed axial compressor. It is generally known that a tip leakage flow has an important role on a stall inception. However, almost of researchers have taken no interest in a role of the hub-comer-stall on the rotating stall even though it is a common feature of the flow in an axial compressor operating near stall and it has a large effect on the flows and loss characteristics. Using a time-accurate unsteady simulation, it is found that the hub-comer-stall may be a trigger to collapse the axisymmetric flows under high loads. An asymmetric disturbance is initially originated in the hub-comer-stall because separations are naturally unstable flow phenomena. Then this disturbance is transferred to the tip leakage flows from the hub-comer-stall and grows to be stationary stall cells, which adheres to blade passage and rotate at the same speed as the rotor. When stationary stall cells reach a critical size, these cells then move along the blade row and become a short-length-scale rotating stall. The rotational speed of stall cells quickly comes down to 79 percent of rotor so they rotate in the opposite direction to the rotor blades in the rotating frame.

  • Accuracy of a numerical model with the Hwang's scheme of directly analyzing discontinuous topography could be enhanced by introducing a flux correction coefficient that accounted for the deviation of actual pressure from hydrostatic distribution acting on the front of discontinuous topography. The optimal coefficient was determined from 218 experimental runs for square-edged broad-crested weir and simulation with it showed good agreement with another two square-edged broad-crested weir experiments and an unsteady side-weir experiment. This enabled accurate numerical simulation of shallow-water flow over the discontinuous river structure, such as square-edged broad-crested weir, without alleviating discontinuous topography with refined meshes or imposing internal boundary conditions.

  • In this paper, the radiated aerodynamic noise generated from sound sources of a nozzle inflow is quantitatively investigated and compared with experimental results of externally radiated noise. A high-resolution unsteady compressible Large Eddy Simulation (LES) technique is used to accurately predict the internal and external flow of three types of nozzle shape. Through using the vortex sound source for sound sources, the geometry of nozzle neck is identified as most significant aerodynamic noise sources. For validation of quantitative analysis, the vortex sound source intensity of internal nozzle flow is compared with results of external radiated noise of calculation and experiment.

  • In this study, we investigate the wake characteristics in laminar inflow and two different turbulent inflow cases. To solve the flow with wind turbines and its wake, we use large eddy simulation (LES) technique with actuator line method (ALM) and turbulent inflow of Turbsim. We perform the quantitative analysis of velocity deficit and turbulent intensity in laminar inflow case and turbulent inflow case with different turbulent intensity. In turbulent inflow, unsteady strong wake recovery which is highly fluctuated in time. Normalized power in turbulent inflow case is also highly fluctuated with unsteady wake recovery, while that in laminar inflow has quasi steady characteristic in power generation.

  • A numerical model capable of simulating a 2-D airfoil flying over in the vicinity of the waves is discussed. Instead of treating the problem as a heaving oscillation one above the rigid flat wall, sources are distributed on the prescribed wave profile. The wave deformation due to the airfoil is assumed to be negligible and treated as a rigid undulated wall. The source and vortex are distributed on the surface of the foil. It is found that the variation of $C_L$ with wave steepness in severe and that the lift variation due to waves decreases as the wing height above the water surface increases.

  • A Navier-Stokes code based on a unstructured finite volume method is used to simulate the MIT flapping foil experiment. A low Reynolds number $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model is used to close the Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations. Computations are carried out for a domain involving two flapping foils and a downstream hydrofoil. The computational domain is meshed with unstructured quadrilateral elements, partly structured. Numerical solutions show good agreement with experiment. Unsteadiness inside boundary layer is entrained when a unsteady vortex impinge on the blade surface. It shoves that local peak value inside the boundary layer and also local minimum near the edge of boundary layer as it developes along the blade surface. The unsteadiness inside the boundary layer is almost isolated from the free stream unsteadiness and being convected at local boundary layer speed, less than the free stream value.

  • A numerical parametric study is conducted to simulate shock-induced combustion with a variation in freestream conditions. The analysis is limited to inviscid flow and includes chmical nonequilibrium. A steady combustion front is established if the freestream Mach number is above the Chapman-Jouguet speed of the mixture. On the other, an unsteady reaction fi:ont is established if the freestream Mach number is below or at the Chapman-Jouguet speed of the mixture. The three cases have been simulated for Machs 4.18, 5.11, and 6.46 with a projectile diameter of 15 mm. Machs 4.18 and 5.11 shows an unsteady reaction front, whereas Mach 6.46 represents a steady reaction front. Thus Chapman-Jouguet speed is one of deciding factor for the instabilities to trigger. The instabilities of the chemical front with a variation of projectiles diameters will be investigated.

  • In this study, the SST k - ω turbulence model and the sliding mesh technology based on RANS method have been adopted to simulate the exciting force and hydrodynamic of a pump-jet propulsor in different oblique inflow angle (0°, 10°, 20°, 30°) and different advance ratio (J = 0.95, J = 1.18, J = 1.58).The fully structured grid and full channel model have been adopted to improved computational accuracy. The classical skewed marine propeller E779A with different advance ratio was carried out to verify the accuracy of the numerical simulation method. The grid independence was verified. The time-domain data of pump-jet propulsor exciting force including bearing force and fluctuating pressure in different working conditions was monitored, and then which was converted to frequency domain data by fast Fourier transform (FFT). The variation laws of bearing force and fluctuating pressure in different advance ratio and different oblique flow angle has been presented. The influence of the peak of pulsation pressure in different oblique flow angle and different advance ratio has been presented. The results show that the exciting force increases with the increase of the advance ratio, the closer which is to the rotor domain and the closer to the blades tip, the greater the variation of the pulsating pressure. At the same time, the exciting force decrease with the oblique flow angle increases. And the vertical and transverse forces will change more obviously, which is the main cause of the exciting force. In addition, the pressure distribution and the velocity distribution of rotor blades tip in different oblique flow angles has been investigated.

  • 공기 양수 펌프는 재생 에너지 분야, 부식 및 마모 특성의 유체의 활용 등 높은 신뢰성과 낮은 유지보수 비용을 필요로 하는 분야에서 그 사용이 증대되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 소형 공기 양수 펌프의 성능 평가 및 기초 데이터를 얻기 위한 연구로, D=0.012~0.019m, L=0.933m인 배관의 침수 깊이(${\beta}$=0.55,0.60,0.65,0.70)에 따른 수치해석을 수행하였다. 수치 해석 및 실험 결과는 유사성을 뛰었으며, 펌프의 사양과 효율은 공기의 질량 유속 비, 침수 깊이 비와 양수 배관의 길이에 관한 함수로 나타났다. 그리고 최대 물과 공기 질량 유속의 비는 각 배관에서 서로 다른 침수 깊이의 비로 나타났으며, 공기 양수 펌프의 최대 효율이 발생되는 운전조건은 슬러그(slug)와 슬러그 교반 정도(slug-churn flow regime)에 따라 나타남을 알 수 있었다.
