Transient characteristics of a boiler and turbine system for a steam power plant are simulated. One-dimensional unsteady models are introduced for each component. An interaction between boiler and turbine and a control of the water level in the drum are taken into account. Transient responses of the system to the variations of main system variables such as fuel and air flow rate, cooling water injection rate at the attemperator, gas recirculation rate at the furnace and opening of the turbine control valve are examined. Effect of fluid inertia and tube wall thermal inertia on predicted dynamic behavior is investigated.

This study investigates the response of functionally graded (FG) gas pipe under unsteady internal pressure and temperature. The pipe is proposed to be manufactured from FGMs rather than custom carbon steel, to reduce the erosion, corrosion, pressure surge and temperature variation effects caused by conveying of gases. The distribution of material graduations are obeying power and sigmoidal functions varying with the pipe thickness. The sigmoidal distribution is proposed for the 1st time in analysis of FG pipe structure. A Two-dimensional (2D) plane strain problem is proposed to model the pipe cross-section. The Fourier law is applied to describe the heat flux and temperature variation through the pipe thickness. The time variation of internal pressure is described by using exponential-harmonic function. The proposed problem is solved numerically by a two-dimensional (2D) plane strain finite element ABAQUS software. Nine-node isoparametric element is selected. The proposed model is verified with published results. The effects of material graduation, material function, temperature and internal pressures on the response of FG gas pipe are investigated. The coupled temperature and displacement FEM solution is used to find a solution for the stress displacement and temperature fields simultaneously because the thermal and mechanical solutions affected greatly by each other. The obtained results present the applicability of alternative FGM materials rather than classical A106Gr.B steel. According to proposed model and numerical results, the FGM pipe is more effective in natural gas application, especially in eliminating the corrosion, erosion and reduction of stresses.

The logarithmic form for turbulent flow analysis guarantees the positivity of the turbulence variables as ${\kappa}$ and ${\varepsilon}$ of the ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ model by using the natural logarithm of these variables. In the present study, the logarithmic form is incorporated into the finite element solution procedure for the unsteady turbulent flow analysis. A backward facing step flow using the standard ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ model and a flow around a 2D square cylinder using the modified ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ model (the Kato-Launder model) are simulated. These results show that the logarithmic form effectively keeps adequate balance of turbulence variables and makes the analysis stable during transient or unsteady processes.

Numerical results are presented for the 2-dimensional turbulent transient heat transfer of the shell/tube heat exchanger with a step change of the inlet temperature in the primary side. Heat transfer boundary conditions outside the pipe are given partially by the convection heat transfer conditions and partially by insulated conditions. Calculation results were obtained by solving the unsteady two-dimensional elliptic forms for the Reynolds-averaged governing equations for the mass, momentum and energy. Finite-difference method was used to obtain discretization equations, and the SIMPLER solution algorithm was employed for the calculation procedure. Turbulent model used is the algebraic model proposed by Cebeci-Smith. Results presented include the time variant Nusselt number distribution, average temperature distribution and outlet temperatures for the various inlet temperatures and flow rates.

이 논문에서는 관망시스템의 수격압 현상을 모의하기 위해서 합성 부정류 마찰 모형을 개발하였다. 부정류 마찰항을 고려하기 위한 방법으로 빈도 의존 마찰항과 순간 가속도 기반 마찰 모형을 합성하였으며, 특성선 방법을 모형 개발의 기반으로하였다. 관망에서의 부정류 모형으로 가장 널리 쓰이는 Zielke의 마찰항 모형과 Ramos의 마찰항 모형들과 종합적인 비교를 수행하였다. 모의 결과를 검증하기 위해서 고빈도로 수압을 측정할 수 있는 자료 획득체제를 구비한 관망시스템을 구축하였다. 정상상태에서 밸브 급폐로 야기된 수격압의 수압 시계열을 2가지 Reynolds수에서 확보하였다. 모의결과는 pilot 관망체제에서 확보한 실험 자료와 비교하였다. 부정류 마찰항 모형의 매개변수 보정을 위해서 시행착오 방법이 도입되었으며, 부정류 마찰항들을 비교한 결과는 수격압에서 수압이 감쇄되는 과정에 대한 전반적인 이해를 돕고자 하였다. 이와 같은 결과는 관망의 천이류를 적절히 예측하는데 부정류 마찰항의 적절한 고려가 필수적인 부분임을 알려 주고 있다.

The operation of the nuclear reactor requires accurate and fast methods and techniques for analysing its kinetics. These techniques become even more important when the MOX-fuel is used due to the lower value of delayed neutron fraction 𝛽 for ²³⁹Pu. Based on a Birth-and-Death process review, the mathematical model of thermal reactor core has been proposed different from existing ones. The analytical method for thermal point-reactor parameters evaluation is described within this work. The proposed method is applied for analysis of the unsteady transient processes taking place in a thermal reactor at its start-up or shutdown power change, as well as during small accidental power variation from the rated value. Theoretical determination of MASURCA reactor core reactivity through the analysis of experimental data on neutron time spectra was made.

In this study, computational structural vibration analyses of a smart unmanned aerial vehicle (SUAV) with tilt-rotors due to dynamic hub loads have been conducted considering detailed supporting structures of installed equipments. Three-dimensional dynamic finite element model has been constructed for different fuel conditions and tilting angles corresponding to helicopter, transition and airplane flight modes. Practical computational procedure for modal transient response analysis is successfully established. Also, dynamic loads generated by rotating blades and wakes in the transient and forward flight conditions are calculated by unsteady computational fluid dynamics technique with sliding mesh concept. As the results of present study, transient structural displacements and accelerations of the vibration sensitive equipments are presented in detail. In addition, vibration characteristics of structures and installed equipments of which safe operation is normally limited by the vibration environment specifications are physically investigated for different flight conditions.

Unsteady flow problems created by hydraulic transients in pipeline systems with pump are of significant importance because they can cause excessive pressure, cavitation, vibration and noise. In this paper, an analysis of transient flow for the pump pipelines is developed by means of the characteristic method. The calculated results of the program to simulate water hammer due to sudden valve closure in a simple pipeline are compared with those of the analytical method. Expecially the water hammer due to power failure in pump pipeline system with surge tank was simulated. As the results, both the upsurge and the downsurge along the pipeline are reduced.

In order to compute pressure variation for a water distribution system, an expression for the friction factor as a function of Reynolds number and the relative roughness needs to be properly incorporated in computational algorithm. Considering Moody s friction variation, Developed Unsteady Network Analyzer (UNA) has been modified to match computational results with EPANET 2.0. Substantial improvement can be found in the application of Improved UNA to both an hypothetical pipeline network and a real system located in Ulsan City. Random number generator is employed to represent the uncertainty of water use in real pipeline network. Comparisons of application between EPANET 2.0 and improved UNA 2.0 indicate advantages and potentials of this approach.
