The objective of this study is to determine the influence of free-stream turbulent intensity on the three-dimensional turbulent flow in a linear turbine cascade. The range of free-stream turbulence intensity considered is 0.7~10%. This study was performed numerically. The results show that the mass averaged loss coefficient increased according to the increase of free-stream turbulence intensity due to increased value of the mass averaged total pressure loss coefficient which was higher than the decreased value of the mass averaged secondary flow loss coefficient. The loss coefficient distribution was changed suddenly at a free-stream turbulence intensity of 10% while the loss coefficient distribution was rarely changed at a lower free-stream turbulence intensity of 5%.

본 연구에서 곡선 와동 요소와 CVC (Constant Vorticity Contour) 후류 모델이 수평축 풍력 터빈의 공력 성능 및 소음을 예측하기 위해 사용되었다. 또한 2차 회귀에 근거하여 회전수의 예측을 하였다. 광대역 소음을 예측은 경험식에 근거한 방법을 사용하였다. 직선 와동요소 대신에 BCVE (Basic Curved Vortex Element)와 SIVE(Self Induction Vortex Element)를 사용하는 곡선 와동 요소를 사용하였으며 CVC 후류 모델에서 와동의 강도는 블레이드의 스팬방향 및 와동을 따라서 일정하다고 가정하였다. 이렇게 만들어진 자유 후류는 와동 격자를 대치한다. 본 방법은 여타의 방법에 비해 휠씬 적은 계산 시간을 요구하며 후류의 정확한 구조를 모사할 수 있었다. 검증을 위해서는 김준모의 실험과 Zond사의 Z-40FS의 모델을 성능 예측 결과와 WTS-4와 USWP를 소음 예측 결과와 비교하였다. 계산 결과는 실제의 실험치와 잘 일치하는 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 회전 깃(rotor blade)을 폭 방향과 시위방향으로 많은 평면 페 널(panel)들로 나누어 이에 말굽쇠 형 화류(horseshoe vortex)를 분포시키는 양력면 (lifting surface)으로 대치하고 후류는 깃상의 순환(circulation)분포에 의해 그 크 기가 결정되는 와도(vorticity)를 와류격자로 대치하는 와류격자법(Vortex Lattice Method`VLM)을 사용하여 HAWT의 공기역학적 성능 예측을 시도하였다. 그리고 후류의 형상은 근 후류(near wake)와 원후류(far wake)로 나누어 근 후류는 깃의 후연(trail- ing edge)에서의 속도를 갖고 와선(vortex line)이 움직이게 하여 결정하였고 원 후류 는 반무한대 원형화류 실린더(semi-infinite circular vortex cylinder)로 취급하여 결정하였다.

A critical issue in the field of the rotor aerodynamics is the treatment of the wake. The wake is of primary importance in determining overall aerodynamic behavior, especially, a wind turbine blade includes the unsteady air loads problem. In this study, the wake generated by blades are depicted by a free wake model to analyse unsteady loading on blade and a new free wake model named Finite Vortex Element(FVE hereafter) is devised in order to include a wake-tower interact ion. In this new free wake model, blade-wake-tower interaction is described by cutting a vortex filament when the filament collides with a tower. This FVE model is compared with a conventional free wake model and verified by a comparison with NREL and SNU wind tunnel model. A comparison with NREL and SNU data shows validity and effectiveness of devised FVE free wake model and an efficient.

Our previous experimental and numerical investigations of decelerated swirling flows in conical diffusers have demonstrated that water jet injection along the symmetry axis mitigates the pressure fluctuations associated with the precessing vortex rope. However, for swirling flows similar to Francis turbines operated at partial discharge, the jet becomes effective when the jet discharge is larger than 10% from the turbine discharge, leading to large volumetric losses when the jet is supplied from upstream the runner. As a result, we introduce the flow-feedback approach for supplying the jet by using a fraction of the discharge collected downstream the conical diffuser. Experimental investigations on mitigating the pressure fluctuations generated by the precessing vortex rope and investigations of pressure recovery coefficient on the cone wall with and without flow-feedback method are presented.

Numerical analysis has been conducted in order to simulate the flow characteristics by tip clearance of turbine cascades. A 3-D Navier-Stokes CFD code based on body-fitted coordinate system, pressure-correction and finite volume method has been used along with a commercial CFD code. The present results have showed that the development and generation of leakage vortex, vortex within tip clearance, etc. are clearly simulated, consistent with the generally known tendency. The leakage vortex occurs mainly by a separation of leakage flow that arises due to a pressure difference between two surfaces of the blade at the tip.

The effect of tip clearance height on the three-dimensional flow and aerodynamic loss in the wake region of a high-turning turbine rotor cascade has been investigated with a miniature cone-type five-hole probe. Distributions of velocity magnitude, secondary velocity vectors, and total-pressure loss coefficient are presented for three tip gap-to-span ratios of h/s = 0.0, 0.5 and 1.0 percent. The result shows that with the increment of h/s, tip leakage vortex tends to be intensified and aerodynamic loss due to the leakage vortex is increased as well. In the case of h/s = 1.0 percent, aerodynamic loss in the tip-leakage flow region is found dominant in comparison with that in the passage vortex region. With increasing h/s, mass-averaged secondary loss coefficient has a greater portion in the mass-averaged total-pressure loss coefficient.

Leakage flow through turbine blade tip gap causes strong leakage vortex near the blade suction side and induces large aerodynamic losses. In this study, the conventional plane tip and various squealer tip blades were tested in a linear cascade in order to measure the effect of the tip shape on the total pressure loss. Three tip gap clearances of 0.6%, 1.3%, and 2.0% of blade span were tested. Flow measurement was conducted at one chord downstream from the trailing edge with a five-hole probe. Results showed that the leakage vortex was stronger than passage vortex and the mass averaged overall total pressure loss through the cascade was the lowest for suction side blade tip case. For all tested cases, the area averaged overall total pressure loss was increased as the tip clearance increased.

The three-dimensional flow in a turbine nozzle guide vane passage causes large secondary loss through the passage and increased heat transfer on the blade surface. In order to reduce or control these secondary flows, a linear cascade with a contoured endwall configuration was used and changes in the three-dimensional flow field were analyzed and discussed. Measurements of secondary flow velocity and total pressure loss within the passage have been performed by means of five-hole probes. The investigation was carried out at fixed exit Reynolds number of $4.0{\times}10^5$. The objective of this study is to document the development of the three-dimensional flow in a turbine nozzle guide vane cascade with modified endwall. The results show that the development of passage vortex and cross flow in the cascade composed of one flat and one contoured endwalls are affected by the flow acceleration which occurs in contoured endwall side. The overall loss is reduced near the flat endwall rather than contoured endwall.
