Incompressible, unsteady flow around various single rectangular cylinders of side ratios ranging from 0.005 to 2.0 immersed in uniform flow is computed by the vortex tracing me thod. Results with and without a splitter plate pttached to the rear center of the cylinder are compared. The objective of this study is to investigate predictability of the effects of the splitter plate on drag by the method. Without the splitter plate, computed drag coefficients for cylinders of large side ratios are in good agreement with measured values, but are over predicted for those of small side ratios. With the splitter plate, drag coefficient is reduced significantly due to suppression of vortex growing near the base and interaction between the separated shear layers.

Numerical simulation has been carried out to investigate the influence of radial temperature gradient on the Taylor Vortex flow. Varying the Grashof number, we study the detailed flow and temperature fields. The current numerical results show good agreement with the experimental results currently available. It turns out that wavy spiral vortices are generated by increasing temperature gradient. We classify flow patterns for various Grashof numbers based on the characteristics of flow fields and spiral vortices. The correlation between Grashof number with wave number shows that the spiral angle and size of Taylor vortices increase with increasing temperature gradient. Temperature gradient does not have a great influence on the heat transfer rate of the cylinder surfaces.

This paper presents a numerical study on tip vortex cavitation inception predictions based on non-spherical bubble dynamics including splitting and jet noise emission. A brief summary of the numerical method and its validation against a laboratory experiment are presented. The behavior of bubble nuclei is studied in a tip vortex flow field at two Reynolds numbers, provided by a viscous flow solver. The bubble behavior is simulated by an axisymmetric potential flow solver with the effect of surrounding viscous flow taken into account using one way coupling. The effects of bubble nucleus size and Reynolds number are studied. An effort to model the bubble splitting at lower cavitation numbers is also described.

The formation mechanism of the vortex streets in the lee of the mountain Is Investigated by a three-dimensional numerical model. The model is based upon the hydrostatic Boussinesq equations in which the vertical turbulent momentum flux is estimated by a turbulence parameterization scheme, but the horizontal viscosity is assumed to be constant. The results show that Karman vortex streets can form even without surface friction in a constant ambient flow with uniform stratification. The vortex formation is related to breaking of the mountain wave, which depends on the Froude number (Fr). In the case of a three-dimensional bell-shaped mountain, the wave breaking occurs when Fr is less than about 0.8, while a barman vortex forms when Fr is less than about 0.22. Vortex formation also depends on Reynolds number, which is estimated from the horizontal diffusivity. The vortex formation can be explained by the wave saturation theory given by Lindzen (1981) with some modification. Simulations in this study show that in the case of Karman vortex formation the momentum flux in the lower level is much larger than the saturated momentum flux, whereas it is almost equal to the saturated momentum at the upper levels as expected from the saturation theory. As a result, large flux divergence is produced in the lower layer, the mean flow is decelerated behind the mountain, and the horizontal wind shear forms between unmodified ambient wind. The momentum exchange between the mean flow and the mountain wave is produced by the turbulence within a breaking wave. From the result, well developed vortices like Karman vortex can be formed. . The results of the momentum budget calculated by the hydrostatic model are almost the same as nonhydrostatic results as long as horizontal scale of the mountain is 10 km. A well developed barman vortex similar to the hydrostatic one was simulated in the nonhydrostatic case. Therefore, we conclude that the hydrostatic assumption is adequate to investigate the origin of the Km8n vortex from the viewpoint of wave breaking.

본 논문은 자유수면에서 마이크로 중력식 와류 수차의 성능에 블레이드 상대위치 변화의 영향을 이해하는 것이다. 일정한 와류 유동에서 자유수면 아래 상대 와류 수심비(y/h_v)의 범위 0 ~ 0.778 지점에 설치된 블레이드의 위치 변화에 따른 마이크로 와류 수차의 회전수, 전압 및 전류를 측정하였다. 유량은 0.0063 ~ 0.00662 m³/s 범위이다. 실험 결과는 유입되는 유속과 난류강도의 분포가 변하기 때문에 블레이드의 상대위치가 마이크로 와류 수차의 성능에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 와류 수차에서 발생하는 에너지의 최대량은 상대 와류 수심비 0.111 ~ 0.222 지점에서 발생했다. 상대 와류 수심비 0.111 지점의 출력은 자유수면 아래 상대 와류 수심비 0.588 지점보다 약 2.4배 더 크게 나타난다.

수중운동체에는 필수적 기능을 담당하는 함교, 러더와 같은 다양한 부가물들이 장착된다. 이들 부가물과 선체의 접합부에는 유선의 박리로 인해 다양한 와류가 생성된다. 이러한 와류는 수중운동체의 추진기로 유입되어 수중방사소음의 증가와 같은 부정적 효과를 야기해 스텔스 성능의 향상을 위해서는 반드시 저감되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 부가물과 선체의 접합부에서 생성되는 말발굽와류(HSV)와 뿌리와류(RV)를 저감하는데 효과적인 와류저감장치(VRD)에 대한 설계기준을 도출하였다. 먼저, 접합부 와류의 레이놀즈 상사특성 만족 여부를 분석함으로써 설계기준 도출에 부가물의 제원과 유속의 영향을 레이놀즈수로 대체하였다. 또한 VRD의 형상을 정의하기 위해 베지어 곡선을 활용해 VRD의 3차원 표면을 파라미터화하였다. 이후, 와류저감을 위한 VRD의 설계기준 도출을 위해 다양한 제원의 VRD의 와류저감 성능을 분석함으로써 최적의 길이 대 높이 비율이 선정되었다. 최종적으로 대상 범위의 부가물들에 대해 최적 비율을 만족하는 다양한 크기의 VRD 성능이 비교 분석되었다. 이를 종합하여 임의의 부가물에 대해서도 와류저감 성능을 나타낼 수 있는 VRD의 무차원화 설계기준이 도출되었다.

In this study the numerical analyses on cavity flow in supersonic flow field are conducted. According to the length-to-depth ratio of cavity, the shear layer is changed, consequently influencing on vortex structure inside the cavity. Especially in case the fluid flow outside cavity impinges inside the cavity, the oscillation of the cavity flow is identified. Another result is that though the cavity flow shows the unsteadiness, characteristics of cavity flow can be represented by pressure coefficients converged.

Flow patterns in the presence of two identical nearby circular cylinders at =100 were numerically studied. We considered all possible arrangements of the two circular cylinders in terms of the distance between the two cylinders and the inclination angle with respect to the direction of the main flow. Eight distinct flow patterns were identified based on vorticity contours and streamlines, which are Base-Bleed, Biased-Base-Bleed, Shear- Layer-Reattachment, Induced-Separation, Vortex-Impingement, Flip-Flopping, Modulated Periodic, and Synchronized-Vortex-Shedding. Collecting all the numerical results, we propose a general flow pattern diagram for flows past the two cylinders. The perfect geometrical symmetry implied in the flow configuration allows one to use this diagram to distinguish flow patterns in the presence of two identical circular cylinders arbitrarily positioned in physical space with respect to the main flow direction.
