본 연구에서는 진공튜브 내 초고속열차의 공기저항을 전산유체역학을 이용하여 계산하였으며, 튜브-열차 시스템의 주요 시스템 파라메타인 열차 속도, 공기밀도, 터널 직경을 변화시켜가면서 공기저항의 변화를 살펴보았다. 튜브 내에서의 열차 공기저항은 속도의 제곱보다 더 급격히 증가하며, 튜브 직경이 증가함에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, 공기밀도가 감소함에 따라 개활지와 마찬가지로 거의 선형적으로 감소하는 특성을 보여주었으며, 특정 파라메타 공간에 대하여 파라메타에 따른 공기저항 변화의 불규칙성이 다소 나타났다.

고속열차의 공기저항 저감을 위해 KTX-산천의 구성요소별 공기저항을 상세하게 분석하였다. 전체 공기저항의 약 42.9%는 동력차(선두차, 후미차)에서 그리고 약 10.1%는 대차에서 유발되는 것으로 나타났다. 전두부의 공기저항 저감을 위해 Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno 기법을 이용한 전두부 최적설계를 수행하였다. 그리고 차체 공기저항 저감을 위해 동력차 형상 변화 및 대차커버를 적용하였다. 공기저항 저감을 위해 최적설계된 편성열차의 공기저항은 KTX-산천 대비 약 15.0% 저감되었으며, 주행저항은 속도 350km/h에서 약 12% 감소될 것으로 예상된다.

The aerodynamic drag of high-speed train has been calculated and the effect of bogie side fairing on the aerodynamic drag has been investigated. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation based on steady-state 3 dimensional Navier-Stokes equation has been conducted employing FLUENT 12 and the aerodynamic model of HEMU-430x, the Korean next generation high-speed train under development has been built using GAMBIT 2.4.6. Three types of bogie side fairing configuration, the proto-type without fairing, half-covered fairing to avoid the interference with the bogie frame and full-covered fairing have been adopted to the train model to compare the drag reduction effects of the bogie side fairing configurations and the numerical results yields that the bogie side fairing can reduce the aerodynamic drag of the 6-car trainset up to 7.8%. The aerodynamic drag coefficient of each vehicle as well as the flow structures around the bogie system have also been examined to analyze the reason and mechanism of the drag reduction by bogie side fairing.

The maximum speed of high-speed rail is restricted to various factors such as track condition including slope and radius, tunnel and dynamic stability of vehicle. Among the various factors, traction effort and resistance to motion is principal and basic factor. In addition, at high speed over 300km/h, aerodynamic drag amounts up to 80% of resistance to motion, that it can be said that aerodynamic drag is the most important factor to decide the maximum speed of high-speed rail system. This paper deals with a measure to increase the maximum speed of high-speed train by reducing aerodynamic drag. The traction effort curve and resistance to motion curve of existing high-speed train under development has been employed to set up the target of aerodynamic drag reduction to reach up to 500km/h without modification traction system. In addition, the contribution of various sources of aerodynamic drag to total value has been analyzed and the strategy for implementation of aerodynamic drag reduction has been discussed based on the aerodynamic simulation results around the train using computational fluid dynamics.

When a train runs into a tunnel at high-speed, aerodynamic drag suddenly increases and the booming noise is generated at the exit of tunnel. The noise shape is very important to reduce the aerodynamic drag in tunnel as well as on open ground, and the micro-pressure wave that is a source of booming noise is dependent on nose shape, especially on area distribution. In this study, the nose shape has been optimized employing the response surface methodology and the axi-symmetric compressible Navier-Stokes equations. The optimal designs have been executed imposing various conditions of the aerodynamic drag and the micro-pressure wave on object functions. The results show that the multi-objective design was successful to decrease micro-pressure wave and aerodynamic drag of trains.

Roof-fairing and deflector system have been used on heavy-duty trucks to minimize aerodynamic drag force not only for driving stability of the truck but also for energy saving by reducing the required driving power of the vehicle. In this study, a numerical simulation was carried out to see aerodynamic effect of the drag reducing device on the model vehicle. Drag and lift force generated on the five different models of the drag reducing system were calculated and compared them each other to see which type of device is efficient on the reduction of driving power of the vehicles quantitatively. An experiment has been done to see airflow characteristics on the model vehicles. Airflow patterns around the model vehicles were visualized by smoke generation method to compare the complexity of airflow around drag reducing device. From the results, the deflector systems(Model 5,6) were revealed as a better device for reduction of aerodynamic drag than the roof-fairing systems(Model 2,3,4) on the heavy-duty truck and it can be expected that over 10% of brake power of an engine can be saved on a tractor-trailer by the aerodynamic drag reducing device at normal speed range($80km/h{\sim}$).

At present, wind tunnel test or CFD is used for predicting aerodynamic drag coefficient in motor company. But, wind tunnel test requires much cost and time, and CFD has about 30% error. In this study a predicting program of the aerodynamic drag coefficient based on empirical techniques was developed. Also a mathematical optimization method using GRG method was added to the program. The program was applied to six cars. Aerodynamic drag coefficient values of six cars were Predicted with 4.857% average error. The optimization method was also applied to six cars. Three parameters selected from sensitivity analysis were determined to reduce the afterbody drag coefficient to the value established by a designer and when some parameters were changed for a developing automotive, optimal modifiable parameters were determined to preserve the same drag coefficient as the original automotive. It was verified that this program could predict the aerodynamic drag coefficient effectively and accurately, and this program with GRG method could determine optimal values of parameters.

Wind tunnel test or CFD is used for predicting aerodynamic drag coefficient in domestic motor companies. But, wind tunnel test requires much cost and time, and CFD has a relatively large error. In this study a predicting program of the aerodynamic drag coefficient based on empirical techniques was developed. Also GRG method was added to the program in order to decide optimal values of some parameters. The program was applied to 24 cars and the aerodynamic drag coefficients were predicted with 4.82% average error. Optimization was also accomplished to 6 cars. Some parameters to be modified were determined (1) to reduce the afterbody drag coefficient to the value established by a designer and (2) to preserve the same drag coefficient as the original automotive when some parameters have to be changed in the viewpoint of design. It was verified that the developed program can predict the aerodynamic drag coefficient appropriately and determine optimal values of some parameters.

본 연구에서는 비정렬 중첩 혼합 격자계를 사용하는 전산유체기법으로 무베어링 로터허브의 공기역학적 항력을 계산하였다. 동체와 로터 허브 모두 점성 항력보다는 압력 항력이 주요 요소로 작용하고 있으며, 토크 튜브의 항력이 허브 항력에서 가장 큰 비중을 차지하고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 허브 항력은 동체 항력 대비 39~41%를 차지하는 것으로 나타났다. 최종적으로 개발된 헬리콥터의 항력 추세와의 비교를 통해, 설계된 무베어링 로터 허브의 항력은 요구도를 충족시키는 것으로 확인되었다.
