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 paper represents the numerical study on Taylor flow according to the radius ratio and the angular velocity for flow between tow cylinder. The numerical model is consisted of two cylinder which inner cylinder is rotating and outer cylinder is fix, and the axial direction is used the cyclic condition because of the length for axial direction is assumed infinite. The diameter of inner cylinder is assumed 86.8 mm, the numerical parameters are angular velocity and radius ratio. The numerical method is compared with the experimental results by Wereley, and the results are very good agreement. The critical Taylor number is calculated by theoretical and numerical analysis, and the results is showed the difference about ${\pm}10\;%$. As $Re/Re_c$ is increased, Taylor vortex is changed to wavy vortex, and then the wave number for azimuthal direction is increased. Azimuthal wave according to the radius ratio is showed high amplitude and low frequence in case of small radius ratio, and is showed low amplitude and high frequence in case of large radius ratio.

Supersonic microjets acquire considerable research interest from a fundamental fluid dynamics perspective, in part because the combination of highly compressible flow at low-to-moderate Reynolds number is not very common, and in part due to the complex nature of the flow itself. In addition, microjets have a great variety engineering applications such as micro-propulsion, MEMS (Micro-Electro Mechanical Systems) components, microjet actuators and fine particle deposition and removal. Numerical simulations have been carried out at moderate nozzle pressure ratios and for different nozzle exit diameters to investigate and to understand in-depth of aerodynamic characteristics of supersonic microjets.

In the present study, an evaporative generation process of ammonia-water solution film on the vertical plate was analysed. For the utilization of waste heat, hot water of low temperature was used as the heat source. The continuity, momentum, energy and diffusion equations for the solution film and vapor mixture were formulated in integral forms and solved numerically. Counter-current solution-vapor flow resulted in the refrigerant vapor of the higher ammonia concentration than that of co-current flow. Eve the rectification of refrigerant vapor was observed near the inlet of solution film in counter-current flow. For the optimum operation of generator using hot water, numerical experiments, based on the heat exchange and generation efficiencies. revealed the inter-relationships among the Reynolds number of the solution film and hot water, and the length of generator. Enhancement of heat and mass transport in the solution film was found to be very effective for the improvement of generation performance, especially at high solution flow rate.

Most of experimental visualizations and numerical results on the flow field separated form a leading edge around an unsteady foil show a continuous streakline from the leading edge and large reverse flow between the streakline and the suction surface. However, they have not exactly clarified yet the dynamic behavior of vortices separated from the leading edge because separation around an unsteady foil is very complicated phenomenon due to many parameters. In the present study the flow fields around pitching foils have been visualized by using a Schlieren method with a high speed camera in a wind tunnel at low Reynolds number regions. It has been observed that small vortices are shed discretely from the leading and trailing edge and that they stand in line on the integrated streakline of separation shear layer. By counting vortices in the VTR frames it was clarified that the number of vortex shedding from the leading and trailing edge during one pitching cycle strongly depends on the non-dimensional pitching rate. Futhermore the vortices moving up to the leading edge on the suction surface of the pitching foil are visualized. They play an important role to balance the number of vortex shedding from both edges.

In this study, we simulate the aerodynamic sounds generated by a two-dimensional circular cylinder in a uniform flow are simulated by applying the finite difference lattice Boltzmann method (FDLBM). The third-order-accurate up-wind scheme (UTOPIA) is used for the spatial derivatives. and the second-order-accurate Runge-Kutta scheme is applied for the time marching. The results show that we successively capture very small acoustic pressure fluctuations with the same frequency of the Karman vortex street compared with the Pressure fluctuation around a circular cylinder The propagation velocity of the acoustic waves shows that the points of peak pressure are biased upstream due to the Doppler effect in the uniform flow For the downstream. on the other hand. it quickly Propagates. It is also apparent that the amplitude of sound Pressure is Proportional to $r^{-1/2}$, r being the distance from the center of the circular cylinder. To investigate the effect of the lattice dependence furthermore a 2D computation of the tone noise radiated by a NACA0012 with a blunt trailing edge at high incidence and low Reynolds number is also investigated.

Two-dimensional turbulent fluid flow and solidification were investigated in a continuous casting process of a steel slab with electromagnetic field. The electromagnetic field was described by the Maxwell equations. The enthalpy-porosity relation was employed to suppress the velocity within a mushy region. A revised low-Reynolds number $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model was used to consider the turbulent effects. It is shown that the temperature gradient in the casting direction in the case with EMBR becomes very weak compared to that of the case without EMBR. The results also show that the velocity profiles of the case with solidification are quite different from those of the case without solidification.

본 연구에서는 직선 개수로 내에 설치된 수제 모형 주위에서 발생하는 난류 흐름의 특성을 알아보기 위하여 수리모형실험을 수행하였다. 실험은 Froude 수가 0.100과 0.185인 두 가지 흐름 조건에서 이루어졌다. 시간평균유속과 난류 응력을 구하기 위하여 초음파 유속계를 이용하여 3차원 순간 유속을 측정하였다. 실험 결과, 수제 하류에서 난류 응력이 큰 재순환 영역이 존재하는 것으로 확인하였다. Froude 수가 큰 경우와 작은 경우의 전반적인 평균 유속 분포는 유사하게 나타났으나, 최대 무차원 난류 응력과 최대 무차원 바닥 전단응력은 Froude 수가 증가할수록 차이를 보였다.

The study of bacterial flagellar swimming motion remains an interesting and challenging research subject in the fields of hydrodynamics and bio-locomotion. This swimming motion is characterized by very low Reynolds numbers, which is unique and time reversible. In particular, the effect of rotation of helical flagella of bacterium on swimming motion requires detailed multi-disciplinary analysis. Clear understanding of such swimming motion will not only be beneficial for biologists but also to engineers interested in developing nanorobots mimicking bacterial swimming. In this paper, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation of a three dimensional single flagellated bacteria has been developed and the fluid flow around the flagellum is investigated. CFD-based modeling studies were conducted to find the variables that affect the forward thrust experienced by the swimming bacterium. It is found that the propulsive force increases with increase in rotational velocity of flagellum and viscosity of surrounding fluid. It is also deduced from the study that the forward force depends on the geometry of helical flagella (directly proportional to square of the helical radius and inversely proportional to pitch).

현재 Micro Shock Tube는 다양한 공학응용분야에 적용되고 있으며, 특히 우주항공 및 연소기술 그리고 약물전달 등의 분야에서 광범위한 잠재력을 가진 장치 중 하나이다. 그러나 Micro Shock Tube에서의 유동 특성은 작은 직경으로 인해 형성되는 매우 낮은 Reynolds Number와 높은 Knudsen Number의 영향으로 일반적으로 잘 알려진 Macro Shock Tube의 유동 특성과 상이하게 나타난다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 Micro Shock Tube의 유동 특성을 상세히 연구하기 위해 직경이 다른 두 가지 Micro Shock Tube의 실험을 수행하였다. 충격파 전파를 측정하기 위해 고압관의 파막압력 그리고 저압관의 세 지점에 센서를 설치하여 압력을 측정하고 분석하였다. 본 연구로부터, 동일한 파막압력에서 Micro Shock Tube 직경의 증가에 따라 충격파 전파속도가 증가하였고, 반사파의 영향도 더 크게 받았다.
