The purpose of this study was to predict the load effect on a damper installed at a nuclear power plant building after a tsunami using a volume of fluid (VOF) numerical analysis method. The wave height was determined by a sine wave function and the tsunami condition was estimated by the wave length. Also, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), the maximum damper load was set as a boundary condition for the structural analysis that verified how stress and deformation affect the damper. As a result, such simulations estimated the highest stress distribution for a wave length of 350 m with a maximum stress present at the cross point of stiffness installed at the rear end of the damper. The total deformation was approximately 32 mm at the center of damper.

주조시 주형내의 유동해석을 위해서는 시간에 따라 변화하는 자유표면 위치에 대한 정확한 정보가 요구되는 관계로 난제로 여겨져 왔다. 따라서 대부분의 연구는 초기치 속도를 정의하기 위해서 순간충입(instantaneous filling)을 가정하여 수치 해석을 하였던 것이다. 본 연구는 Modified Solution Algorithm-Volume of Fluid Method (MSOLA-VOF)를 개발하는 주조시 주형내의 유동을 수치적으로 해석하며, 유속이 수평 주조, 수직 주조의 경우에 어떤 영향을 미치는가에 대하여 연구하였다. 결론으로 응고 연구에 있어서 초기의 순간충입은 비현실적인 가정이라는 것이 밝혀졌으며, 충입시 초기 속도 분포와 결정 생성은 밀접한 관계가 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Interface tracking of two phase is significant to analyze multi-phase phenomena. The VOF(Volume of Fluid) and level set are well known interface tracking method. However, they have limitations to solve compressible flow and incompressible flow at the same time. CIP(Cubic Interpolate Propagation) method is appropriate for considering compressible and incompressible flow at once by solving the governing equation which is divided up into advection and non-advection term. In this article, we analyze the droplet impingement according to various We number using improved CIP method which treats nonlinear term once more comparison with original CIP method. Furthermore, we compare spread radius after droplet impingement on the wall with the experimental data and original CIP original CIP method, and it reduces the mass conservation error which is generated in the numerical analysis comparison with original CIP method.

High speed casting technology is an attractive method to increase the productivity of continuous casting. However, high speed casting causes flow instability of molten steel in a mold. In this study, Large Eddy Simulation (LES) has been performed to identify the characteristics of mold flow for various shapes of submerged entry nozzles. The LES code has been newly developed to efficiently compute the two-phase flow by using the Fractional Step Method (FSM) combined with the Volume of Fluid (VOF) method. The Immersed Boundary Method was used to implement the shape of the submerged entry nozzle. Three cases of discharge angle of the submerged entry nozzle were computed and compared. The current results shed light on improving shape design of a submerged entry nozzle.

Frictional resistance comprises more than 60% of the total resistance for most merchant ships. Active and passive devices have been used to reduce frictional resistance, but the most effective and practical device is an air lubrication system. Such systems have been applied in several ships, and their effects have been verified in sea trials. On the other hand, there are some differences between the results predicted in model tests and those measured in sea trials. In this study, numerical analyses were carried out for a model and a full-scale ship. A new extrapolation method was proposed to improve the estimation of the full-scale resistance of a ship with an air lubrication system. The volume of fluid (VOF) method was considered for the numerical models of the air layer. The numerical method was validated by comparing the experimental data on the air layer pattern and the total resistance.

순산소 전로 후드의 일산화탄소와 열회수를 위해서는 고효율의 증기를 발생시키는 증기드럼의 장착이 필요하다. 그러나 제선 제강공정에서 증기발생은 간헐적이거나 주기적인 산소 취입공정기간에 제한적이다. 따라서, 증기드럼은 전로의 주기에 따른 산소의 취련기간 동안 효율적으로 증기를 발생시키도록 최적 설계되어야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 다양한 운전조건 및 기하학적 형상변화가 증기드럼 내의 열유동 특성과 성능에 미치는 효과를 예측할 수 있는 3차원 전산유체역학 모델을 제안하였다. 본 모델은 유체유동 및 열전달 뿐만 아니라 계면유동에서의 증발 및 응축을 유한체적법을 사용하여 고려하였다. 본 모델의 예측성능을 검증하기 위하여 실험에서 구한 증기발생량과 비교하였으며 3.2%의 상대오차를 보였다.

In this study, wave pressure is calculated by using irregular waves in front of a breakwater. In the numerical model, the Reynolds equations are solved by a finite difference method and $k-{\varepsilon}$ model is employed for the turbulence analysis. To track the free surface displacement, the volume of fluid method is employed. The results of two cases present that wave pressure change due to irregular wave similar to wave height of irregular wave. It is observed that wave pressure of Case 2 more bigger than wave pressure of Case 1 at the same position.

The main objective of this study is to investigate the turning and zig-zag maneuvering performance of the well-known naval surface combatant DTMB (David Taylor Model Basin) 5415 hull with URANS (Unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes) method. Numerical simulations of static drift tests have been performed by a commercial RANS solver based on a finite volume method (FVM) in an unsteady manner. The fluid flow is considered as 3-D, incompressible and fully turbulent. Hydrodynamic analyses have been carried out for a fixed Froude number 0.28. During the analyses, the free surface effects have been taken into account using VOF (Volume of Fluid) method and the hull is considered as fixed. First, the code has been validated with the available experimental data in literature. After validation, static drift, static rudder and drift and rudder tests have been simulated. The forces and moments acting on the hull have been computed with URANS approach. Numerical results have been applied to determine the hydrodynamic maneuvering coefficients, such as, velocity terms and rudder terms. The acceleration, angular velocity and cross-coupled terms have been taken from the available experimental data. A computer program has been developed to apply a fast maneuvering simulation technique. Abkowitz's non-linear mathematical model has been used to calculate the forces and moment acting on the hull during the maneuvering motion. Euler method on the other hand has been applied to solve the simultaneous differential equations. Turning and zig-zag maneuvering simulations have been carried out and the maneuvering characteristics have been determined and the numerical simulation results have been compared with the available data in literature. In addition, viscous effects have been investigated using Eulerian approach for several static drift cases.

An efficient solution algorithm for simulating free surface problem is presented. Navier-Stokes equations for variable density incompressible flow are employed as the governing equation on Cartesian meshes. In order to describe the free surface motion efficiently, VOF(Volume Of Fluid) method utilizing THINC(Tangent of Hyperbola for Interface Capturing) scheme is employed. The most time-consuming part of the current free surface flow simulations is the solution step of the linear system, derived by the pressure Poisson equation. To solve a pressure Poisson equation efficiently, the PCG(Preconditioned Conjugate Gradient) method is utilized. This study showed that the proper application of the preconditioner is the key for the efficient solution of the free surface flow when its pressure Poisson equation is solved by the CG method. To demonstrate the efficiency of the current approach, we compared the convergence histories of different algorithms for solving the pressure Poisson equation.

표준 k-${\varepsilon}$, RNG k-${\omega}$ 그리고 k-${\omega}$ SST 난류 모형과 VOF (volume of fluid)기법을 이용하여 사각형 광정위어를 통과하는 난류 흐름의 수면 변화와 유속분포를 수치모의 하였다. 지배방정식은 2차 정확도의 유한체적기법을 이용하여 해석하였으며, 두 개의 서로 다른 격자해상도에서 계산을 수행하여 수치해석 결과의 격자 민감도를 분석하였다. 계산 결과를 Kirkgoz et al. (2008)의 실험 결과 그리고 Moss (1972) 및 Zachoval et al. (2012) 무차원화된 실험값과 비교 분석하여 적용한 수치모형의 정확도를 평가하였다. 수치모의 결과는 사각형 개수로에 설치된 광정위어 흐름의 실험결과들을 합리적으로 예측하고 있으면 적용한 난류모형에 따라서 두 개의 주요 흐름분리 영역에서 계산 결과에 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 표준 k-${\varepsilon}$ 모형은 이들 두 개의 흐름분리영역의 크기를 과소산정하고 있으며, k-${\omega}$ SST 모형은 위어 전면부에서 발생하는 흐름분리 영역을 다소 과대 산정하는 것으로 나타났다. RNG k-${\varepsilon}$ 모형은 전반적으로 양호하게 두 흐름분리 영역을 예측하는 한편, k-${\omega}$ SST 모형은 위어 상류부 모서리에서 발생하는 박리거품의 발생 형태를 가장 잘 예측하는 것으로 나타났다.
