Two-dimensional turbulent flows past a square cylinder and cavity noise are simulated by the finite difference lattice Boltzmann method with subgrid turbulence model. The method, based on the standard Smagorinsky subgrid model and a single-time relaxation lattice Boltzmann method, incorporates the advantages of FDLBM for handling arbitrary boundaries. The results are compared with those by the experiments carried out by Noda & Nakayama and Lyn et al. Numerical results agree with the experimental ones. Besides, 2D computation of the cavity noise generated by flow over a cavity at a Mach number of 0.1 and a Reynolds number based on cavity depth of 5000 is calculated. The computation result is well presented a understanding of the physical phenomenon of tonal noise occurred primarily by well-jet shear layer and vortex shedding and an aeroacoustic feedback loop.

A few fluid structure interaction analyses have been developed for turbomachinery blades in comparison with aircraft wings. Also, the existing aeroelastic analyses for turbomachinery blades have been mostly limited to cases with a steady freestream. In reality, however, the inflowing freestream is often pulsating. Therefore, this paper presents stability and forced response analyses of an isolated three-dimensional blade under pulsating freestream conditions. A new three-dimensional unsteady vortex lattice model under a pulsating freestream has been developed in discrete time domain to examine unsteady aerodynamic forces acting on a vibrating blade. The blade's structural behaviors have been analyzed by using a three-dimensional plate model. In the aeroelastic analysis, the flutter onset of a blade under pulsating freestream is predicted by the Floquet analysis. The new time domain method can predict aeroelastic stability as well as time history.

Effects of helicopter wakes on helicopter aerodynamics are serious, but the wake configuration is very complicated and hard to predict. The purpose of this study is the detailed observation of wake using numerical methods. Vortex lattice method and freewake method are used to track the vortices in the wake. In this paper, the wake configuration is observed during hovering flight. In the case of hovering flight at the moderate thrust level, besides tip vortex, counter-rotating vortex can be observed at the inboard part of blade. When the vortices move downward, tip vortex and counter-rotating vortex get close and influence to each other. Therefore, vortices are highly distorted due to their own instability.

The unsteady vortex lattice method is used to model lead-lag in flapping motions of a rectangular flat plate wing. The results for plunging and pitching motions were compared with the limited experimental results available and other numerical methods. They show that the method is capable of simulating many of the features of complex flapping flight. The lift, thrust and propulsive efficiency of a rectangular flat plate wing have been calculated for various lead-lag motion and reduced frequency with an amplitude of flapping angle(20o). To describe a motion profile of wing tip such as elliptic, line and circle, the phase difference of flapping and lead-lag motion was changed. And the effects of the motion profile on the aerodynamic characteristics of the flapping wing are discussed by examination of their trends.

This paper describes the optimization of the rudder section by the genetic algorism based on VLM(Vortex Lattice Method) and panel method. The developed propeller-rudder analysis program has been validated by comparing with experimental data. The research extends to optimize the anti-erosion rudder section of the large container ship. The object function is the amount of pressure at leading edge of rudder which is closely related with erosion phenomena. The optimized rudder has been compared with conventional rudder with NACA 0021 section by analyzing with the developed program. The finally optimized section has low and mild pressure distribution in comparison with the NACA rudder. The experiments is expected to be carried out for the validation of the present optimization and more parametric study of section geometry is also expected to be conducted in the near future.

본 연구에서는 기존에 널리 사용되어져 온 Wavier-Stokes 방정식을 풀이하는 전통적인 CFD 해석에서 벗어나 최근에 그 응용 분야를 넓혀가고 있는 LBM의 해석코드를 개발하고, 이를 이용하여 이차원 채널속에 놓여진 쇄기형 물체 주위의 유동특성을 조사하였다. D2Q9 격자계 및 Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (LBGK) 모델을 채택하였으며, 수치해석 결과는 기존의 실험결과의 잘 일치하였다. 쇄기형 물체에서 와의 형성 및 방출 Reynolds 수 범위는 $32{\leq}Re{\leq}620$ 이며, 원형실린더에서 알려진 Karman 와열을 형성하는 주기적인 와방출은 대칭적인 와가 형성된 후 $Re{\geq}85$부터 시작되며 Reynolds 수의 증가에 따라 와 방출 주파수는 증가되었다.

In the paper the effect of a stern-plate attached to a ship was taken into account. The relationship between the trim angle of a ship and the wave-resistance coefficient induced by the a stern-plate was studied using the potential flow analysis method. Numerical algorithm was described using the panel method and the vortex lattice method(VLM) to simulate the flow phenomena around a ship. The non-linearity of the free surface boundary conditions were considered using the iterative method and the IGE-GMRES(Incomplete Gaussian Elimination-The Generalized Minimal RESidual) algorithm was adopted to solve the linear equation at each iterative step. Numerical calculations were carried out to investigate the validity of the adopted algorithm using KCS(KRISO 3600 TEU Container) hull. Possible cases for attachment of the plate were checked. The results showed that the numerical algorithm could be physically appropriate.

The lattice Boltzmann method(LBM) has attracted attention as an alternative numerical algorithm for solving fluid mechanics since the end of the 90's. In these days, its intrinsic unsteadiness and rapid increase in computing power make the LBM be more applicable for computing flow-induced noise as well as fluid dynamics. The lattice Boltzmann method is a weakly compressible scheme, so we can get information about both aerodynamics and aeroacoustics from single simulation. In this paper, numerical analysis on Aeolian tone noise generated by tandem-twin square cylinders in duct is performed using the LBM. For simplicity, laminar two-dimensional fluid models are used. To verify the validity and accuracy of the current numerical techniques, numerical results for the laminar duct and the cylinder flows are compared with the analytical solution and the measurement, respectively. Then, aerodynamic noise of the twin tandem square cylinders is investigated. It is shown that the aerodynamic noise from the twin tandem square cylinders can be reduced by controlling the distance between the cylinders.

Aerodynamic sounds generated by a uniform flow around a two-dimensional circular cylinder at Re=150 are simulated by applying the finite difference lattice Boltzmann method. Thethird-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. We have succeed in capturing very small 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 is faster. It is also apparent that the amplitude of sound pressure is proportional to r /sup -1/2/,r being the distance from the center of the circular cylinder. To investigate the effect of the lattice dependence, furthermore, 2D computations of the tone noises radiated by a square cylinder and NACA0012 with a blunt trailing edge at high incidence and low Reynolds number are also investigate.
