An experimental study has been performed on vortex pairing under fundamental and subharmonic forcing with controlled initial phase differences through hot-wire measurements and a multi-smoke wire flow visualization. For the range of St$_{D}$ < 0.6, vortex pairing was controlled by means of fundamental and subharmonic forcing with varying initial phase differences. Much larger mixing rate was achieved by two-frequency forcing with a proper phase difference than one frequency forcing. As St$_{D}$ decreased, vortex pairing was limited to a narrow region of the initial phase difference between two disturbances and higher amplitudes of the fundamental and its subharmonic at the nozzle exit were required for more stable pairing. As the amplitude of the subharmonic at the nozzle exit increased for fixed St$_{D}$ and fundamental amplitude, the distribution of the subharmonic mode against the variation of the initial phase difference changed from a sine function form into a cusp-like form. Thus, vortex pairing can be controlled more precisely for the former case. For St$_{D}$ > 0.6, non-pairing advection of vortices due to the improper phase difference was sometimes observed in several fundamental forcing amplitudes when only the fundamental was applied. However, when its subharmonic was added, vortex pairing readily occurred. As the initial amplitude of this subharmonic increased, the position of vortex pairing moved upstream. This was thought to be due to the fact that the variation of the initial phase difference between the fundamental and its subharmonic has less effects on vortex pairing in the region of fundamental-only vortex pairing.pairing.

An axisymmetric jet is forced with two helical fundamental waves of identical frequency spinning in opposite directions and an additional axisymmetric sub harmonic wave. The subharmonic component rapidly grows downstream from subharmonic resonance with the fundamental, significantly depending on the initial phase difference. The variations of the subharmonic amplitude with the initial phase difference show cusp-like shapes. The amplification of the sub harmonic results in 'vortex pairing of helical modes'. Furthermore, azimuthal variation of the amplification induces an asymmetric jet cross-section. When the initial subharmonics is imposed with an initial phase difference close to a critical value, the jet-cross section evolves into a three-lobed shape. One lobe is generated by the enhanced vortex pairing and the other two lobes are generated by the delayed vortex pairing. Thus, it is confirmed that the initial phase difference between the fundamental and the subharmonic plays an important role in controlling the jet cross-section.

Helical tip vortex is known as stable vortex structure, however the specific frequency component of far wake perturbation induces the vortex pairing in hover and axial flight. It is expected that the tip vortex pairing phenomena may happen in transition flight and very low advance ratio flight so that inflow may be most nonuniform in the low advance ratio flight. The objectives of this paper are that a tip-vortex instability during the transition from hover into very low advance ratio forward flight is numerically predicted to understand a physics by using a time-marching free-wake method. To achieve the objectives, numerical method is firstly validated in typical axial and forward flights cases. Present scheme with trim routine can predict airloads and inflow distribution of forward flight with good accuracy. Then, the transition flight condition is calculated. The rotor used in this wake calculation is a small-scale AH-1G model. By using a tip-vortex trajectory tracking method, the tip-vortex pairing process are clearly observed in transient flight($\mu$=0.03) and disappears at a slightly higher advance ratio($\mu$=0.05). According to the steady flight simulation at $\mu$=0.03, it is confirmed the tip-vortex pairing process is continued in the rear part of rotor disk and not occurs in the front part. Time averaged inflow in this case is predicted as smooth distribution.

검정금파리 날개의 “8자 운동”에 의한 공기역학적 힘의 발생에 관해 수치해석을 수행하였다. 날개운동은 자유류가 있는 tethered flight 실험에서 관찰된 결과에서 인용하였다. 해석결과 양력은 downstroke 중일 때 주로 발생하였고 추력은 upstroke 끝에서 갑작스럽게 발생하였다. 본 연구에서는 양력과 추력 발생의 이러한 특성을 후류에서의 와류구조와 에어포일 주위의 압력장을 통해 물리적으로 이해하고자 하였다. 결과적으로 양력발생은 유효받음각의 증가에 따른 앞전와류와 관계있었으며, 추력발생은 유동장 형태의 측면에서 와류 짝(vortex pairing)현상과 압력장 측면에서 와류정지 현상으로 설명할 수 있었다.

The snapshot method is introduced to approximate the coherent structures of planar forcing jet flow. The numerical simulation of flow field is simulated by discrete vortex method. With snapshot method we could treat the data efficiently and approximate coherent structures inhered in the planer jet flow. By forcing the jet at a sufficient amplitude and at a well-chosen frequency, the paring can be controlled in the region of the jet. Finally we expressed the underlying coherent structures of planar jet flow in the minimum number of modes by Karhunen-Loeve transformation in order to understand jet flow and to make the information storage and management in computers easier.

원형주상체가 진동하는 경우 Keulegen-Carpenter수를 10에서 30까지 변화시키며 이 때에 유기되는 유체력을 계측하고 전유동계측시스템을 (Particle Image Velocimetry) 개발하여 연관된 유동장을 분석하였다. 개발된 PIV 시스템은 고속 유동장 이미지를 홀수와 짝수의 주사선 이미지로 분리하는 방식을 시도하여 하나의 이미지로부터 속도추정이 가능하도록 하였다. KC수에 따른 실린더 주위의 유동을 "traverse street", "single pairing" 그리고 "double pairing"으로 관찰하였고 각 경우 박리되는 보오텍스의 형태에 따라 미세한 항력과 양력의 변화를 수반하는데 이들의 관계를 위상차와 보오텍스 박리의 형태 변화로 설명하였다.

Many researchers have made an effort to explain flight mechanism of flapping insects. As a result, several unsteady mechanisms about lift generation in insect flight have been proposed. But it has a limits to elucidate insect's forward flight and abrupt thrust, because most of these are about insect's hovering flight. For this reason, the objective of this paper is to simulate "Figure-of-eight motion" of insect's wing during tethered flight for comprehending aerodynamic property in insect's forward flight.

The wake geometries of a two-bladed rotor in axial flights using a time-marching free-wake method without a non-physical model of the far wake are calculated. The computed free-wake geometries of AH-1G model rotor in climb flight are compared with the experimental visualization results. The time-marching free-wake method can predict the behavior of the tip vortex and the wake roil-up phenomena with remarkable agreements. Tip vortices shed from the two-bladed rotor can interact with each other significantly. The interaction consists of a turn of the tip vortex from one blade rolling around the tip vortex from the other. Wake expansion of wake geometries in radial direction after the contraction is a result of adjacent tip vortices begging to pair together and spiral about each other. Detailed numerical results show regular pairing phenomenon in the climb flights, the hover at high angle of attack and slow descent flight too. On the contrary, unstable motions of wake are observed numerically in the hover at low angle of attack and fast descent flight. It is because of the inherent wake instability and blade-vortex-interaction rather then the effect of recirculation due to the experimental equipment.

The flow and heat transfer characteristics on the impingement surface can be controlled by the change of vortex with the acoustic excitation, because the flow characteristics of an impinging jet are affected strongly by the vortices formed at the jet exit. To investigate the effects of acoustic excitation, we measured the velocity, turbulent intensity distributions for the free jet and local heat transfer coefficients on a impingement surface. As the acoustic excitation, subharmonic frequency of excited frequency plays an important role to the control of the jet flow. If the vortex pairings are promoted by the acoustic excitation, turbulence intensity of the jet flow is increased quickly. On the other hand if the vortex pairings are suppressed, the jet flow has low turbulence intensity at the center of the jet. Therefore, the low heat transfer rates are obtained on the impingement plate for a small nozzle-to-plate distance. However, it has high heat transfer rates at a large distance between the nozzle and plate due to the increasing of potential-core length.

Piezoelectric actuators have been investigated for flow control in the field of fluid dynamics. Numerical simulation for a single diaphragm piezoelectric actuator operating in quiescent air is performed to investigate the complex flow field around the slot exit. A periodic velocity transpiration condition is applied to simulate the effect of the moving diaphragm. The computational results for the flow field around the slot exit agree well with the experimental data. The results also show that low pressure regions due to the vortex pairing cause non-monotonic variations in the vertical velocity.
