The effect of capillary cross-section geometry on evaporation is investigated in terms of the meniscus shape, evaporation rate and evaporation-induced flow for circular, square and rectangular cross-sectional capillaries. The shapes of water and ethanol menisci are not much different from each other in square and rectangular capillaries even though the surface tension of water is much larger than that of ethanol. On the other hand, the shapes of water and ethanol menisci are very different from each other in circular capillary. The averaged evaporation fluxes in circular and rectangular capillaries are measured by tracking the meniscus position. At a given position, the averaged evaporation flux in rectangular capillaries is much larger than that in circular capillary with comparable hydraulic diameter. The flow near the evaporating meniscus is also measured using micro-PIV, so that the rotating vortex motion is observed near the evaporating ethanol and methanol menisci except for the case of methanol meniscus in rectangular capillary. This difference is considered to be due to the existence of corner menisci at the four comers.

An experimental study on the characteristics of stability of propane turbulent nonpremixed jet flames discharged normal to air free-streams with uniform velocity profile is conducted. Experimental observations are focused on the flame shape, the stability considering two kinds of flame, lift-off distance, and the flame length according to velocity ratio. In order to investigate the mixing structure of the flame base at the lower limit, we employ the RMS technique and measure the species concentration by a gas chromatography. In the results of the stability curve and lifted flame, it is fecund that the dependency of nozzle diameter is closely related to the large-scale vortical structure representing counter-rotating vortices pair. Also, the detailed discussion on the phenomenon of blowout due to this large vortical motion, is provided.

The incompressible viscous flow past a sphere under forced oscillation is numerically investigated at a Reynolds number of 300. The immersed boundary method is used to handle the sphere oscillating vertically to the streamwise direction. There are two important variables to characterize the oscillating state of a sphere. One is an oscillating amplitude normalized by the sphere diameter is set as a fixed number of 0.2. Another is the frequency ratio which is defined by $f_e/f_o$, where fe and fo are the excited frequency and the natural frequency of vortex shedding for the stationary sphere. In this study, three different frequency ratios of 0.8, 1.0 and 1.2 are considered. The results show a periodic flow with hairpin vortices shedding from upper and lower positions as well as vortical legs obliquely extended by oscillating motion of sphere. The enveloping vortical structure experience rupture twice in one period of oscillation. As the frequency of oscillation is increased, the vortical legs are getting shorter and eventually the hairpin vortices are much closer to the adjacent one.

The flow around a structure has been an important subject in wind engineering research. There are various kinds of unstable aerodynamic phenomena with regard to a bluff body. In order to understand the physical mechanism of aerodynamic and aeroelastic instability of a bluff body, the relations between the flow around structures and the motion of body with various section shapes should be investigated. Based on a series of wind tunnel tests, this paper addresses the aerodynamic stability of square cylinder with various corner cuts and attack angles in the uniform flow. The test results show that the models with corner cut produced generally better behaviour for the galloping phenomenon than the original section. However, the corner cut method can not prevent the occurrence of the vortex-induced vibration(VIV). It is also shown that as the attack angle changes, the optimum size of corner cut changes also. This means that any one specific size of corner cut which shows the best aerodynamic behaviour throughout all the cases of attack angles does not exist. This paper presents an intensive study on obtaining the optimum size of corner cut for the stabilization of aerodynamic behaviour of cylinders.

In this paper, the recirculation flow motion and mixing characteristics driven by air bubble stream in a rectangular water tank is studied. The time-resolved PIV technique is adopted for the quantitative visualization and analysis. 488 nm Ar-ion CW laser is used for illumination and orange fluorescent ($\lambda_{ex}=540nm,\;\lambda_{em}=560nm$) particle images are acquired by a PCO 10bit high-speed CCD camera (1280$\times$1024). To obtain clean particle images, 545 nm long pass optical filter and an image intensifier are employed and the flow rates of compressed air is 3 l/min at 0.5 MPa. The recirculation and mixing flow field is further investigated by time-resolved POD analysis technique. It is observed that the large scale recirculation resulting from the interaction between rising bubble stream and side wall is the most dominant flow structure and there are small scale vortex structures moving along with large scale recirculation flow. It is also verified that the sum of 20 modes of velocity field has about 67.4% of total turbulent energy.

For the purpose of improving accuracy in jet noise prediction and investigating its generation mechanism, high subsonic jets were computed by using compressible Large Eddy Simulation(LES), wherein the inflow forcing or disturbance added in the inflow shear layer was incorporated. The far-field Sound Pressure Levels(SPL) as well as the flow field resulted in good agreement with available experimental data by applying only the high azimuthal modes among the inflow forcing parameters. We found that this result was due to an important role of the inflow forcing upon breaking down the axiymmetric vortices that caused high amplitude velocity and pressure fluctuations. In order to examine generation mechanism of the dominant noise component, wavelet transformation was introduced to reveal the presence of a well-organized structure of pressure fluctuations that originated mainly from vortex motions near the end of the jet potential core. This structure took a train of alternately positive and negative wavelet-transformed pressure regions along the jet distance, spreading towards the downstream with advection and propagation. It was concluded that this structure and its dynamic motion are the reason why a high subsonic jet produces the dominant noise with a particular downstream directivity.

f-plane 혹은 $\beta$-plane을 갖고 강체 회전중인 균질수에 외부로부터 고밀도의 유체 를 계속 주입시 주입된 고밀도 류의 확장형태와 이와 대응하는 기존의 균질수(상층수) 의 흐름을 관찰하였다. 고밀도류는 주입후 편향력에 의해 서안을 따라 흐르면서 내부 로 침투 확장하여 회전축에 비대칭인 모양을 보인다. 특히 $\beta$-plan에서는 바닥 경사도 의 증가에 따른 압력 경도력의 증가에 의한 서안을 따라 흐르는 속도가 증가되고 결국 편향력의 증가로 서안에서의 폭이 f-plane보다 좁게 나타난다. 그러나 남쪽에 이르러 서는 유입수의 국지적인 두께증가로 인해 확장 속도가 동시에 경계면상에서 의 혼합을 유발시키기도 한다. 유입된 고밀도류의 상층의 와도발생과 관련한 역할은 확장경로상 의 국지적인 지형효과의 유발과 유입으로 인한 상층수의 수직운동, 즉 vortex-tube stretching 효과를 발생시키는 것으로 볼 수 있으나 f-plane의 경우는 후자에 해당하 는 반시계 방향의 축대칭류를 생성시킴으로써 지형효과는 서안 경계층에만 존재하는 것으로 관찰되었으며 이때의 지형효과는 북향의 매우 약한 서안 경계류로 나타나고 있 다. 한편 $\beta$-plan에서 의 유입수의 역할은 실험면적의 동쪽반인 내부흐름에서는 h보다 는 dh/SUB $\beta$/dt의 크기가 우세하여 결국 상대와도의 감소경향인 시계방향의 음의 와 도(negative vorticity)의 발생과 서쪽반에서는 경계면의 경사 (tilting)에 의한 지형 효과가 극대화되어 유입수의 방향과 정반대인 강한 흐름이 나타나고 있다.

The subsea power cables are increasingly important for harvesting renewable energies as we develop offshore wind farms located at a long distance from shore. Particularly, the continuous flexural motion of inter-array dynamic power cable of floating offshore wind turbine causes tremendous fatigue damages on the cable. As the subsea power cable consists of the helical structures with various components unlike a mooring line and a steel pipe riser, the fatigue analysis of the cables should be performed using special procedures that consider stick/slip phenomenon. This phenomenon occurs between inner helically wound components when they are tensioned or compressed by environmental loads and the floater motions. In particular, Vortex-induced vibration (VIV) can be generated by currents and have significant impacts on the fatigue life of the cable. In this study, the procedure for VIV fatigue analysis of the dynamic power cable has been established. Additionally, the respective roles of programs employed and required inputs and outputs are explained in detail. Demonstrations of case studies are provided under severely sheared currents to investigate the influences on amplitude variations of dynamic power cables caused by the excitation of high mode numbers. Finally, sensitivity studies have been performed to compare dynamic cable design parameters, specifically, structural damping ratio, higher order harmonics, and lift coefficients tables. In the future, one of the fundamental assumptions to assess the VIV response will be examined in detail, namely a narrow-banded Gaussian process derived from the VIV amplitudes. Although this approach is consistent with current industry standards, the level of consistency and the potential errors between the Gaussian process and the fatigue damage generated from deterministic time-domain results are to be confirmed to verify VIV fatigue analysis procedure for slender marine structures.

주기적으로 요동하는 외부유동에 의해 생성되는 캐버티 주위의 2차원 천수유동은 수치적으로 연구하였다. 실험결과와 비교하기 위해 T형의 용기모델을 수치적으로 계산하여 만들었다. 수치계산에서는 캐버티의 종횡비가 전체적인 유동패턴에 크게 영향을 끼치지 않고 종횡비 2에서는 캐버티의 깊은 부분에 정체된 유동형태가 생성되는 것을 제시한다. 높은 레이놀즈 수에서 유동을 가시화 시켰을 때 나다나지 않았던 많은 와류들이 유동장을 특성화 시키고 있다. 외부지역에서의 물질전달은 실험에서 나타난 입자궤적과 잘 일치한다. 캐버티의 외부지역에 위치한 두쌍의 와류가 규모가 큰 시계방향과 반시계방향의 순환유동을 발생시키는 원인이 되는 것이 증명된 셈이다.

3차원의 협착 혈관모델을 3D 프린터를 이용하여 제작하였다. 협착부는 관의 중심축에 대하여 대칭인 형태이며, 협착부가 0도인 직관과 10도로 굽어진 관인 두 가지 모델에 대하여 실험을 수행하였다. 협착모델 내부 속도장을 매질에 대한 왜곡 없이 측정하기 위하여 굴절률일치법을 이용하였다. 정량펌프를 사용하여 발생된 맥동유동은 펌프의 회전속도로 세 가지의 속도조건을 조절하였다. 비정상상태의 속도장은 time-resolved PIV 기법을 이용하여 측정되었다. 주기적인 와류의 생성과 이동은 관 내 최대속도 영역과 관련 있으며, 와류의 크기와 위치 및 대칭성은 레이놀즈수와 관의 기하학적 구조에 영향을 받음을 알 수 있었다. 곡선관에서는 협착부 하류에 재순환 영역이 관찰되며, 이는 혈류역학적 관점에서 혈전의 형성과 침착 가능성을 설명해준다.
