The issues associated with the application of CFD for ship design are addressed. It is quite certain that the CFD tools are very useful in evaluating hull forms a prior to traditional towing tank tests. However, the time-consuming pre-processing is an obstacle in the daily application of CFD tools to improve hull forms. The accuracy of computational modeling without sacrificing the usability of CFD system is also to be assessed. The wave generation is still predicted by using potential panel methods, while velocity profiles entering into propeller plane is solved using turbulent flow solvers. The choice of turbulence model is a key to predict nominal wake distribution within acceptable accuracy. The experimental data for CFD validation are invaluable to improve physical and numerical modeling. Other applications of CFD for ship design than hull form improvement are also given. It is certain that CFD can be a cost-effective tool for the design of new and better ships.

Recently rapid urbanization facilitates development of high-rise building complex including apartment and office building in urban area. Many problems related with high -rise building are reported. Especially, unpleasant strong winds in pedestrian area are frequently encountered around the high-rise building. CFD simulation methods are used to analyze the wind environment of pedestrian level in high-rise building block. However, the results show differences between CFD and measurement. This difference is attributed to improper use of CFD. Conventional CFD simulation for wind environment around high-rise building does not describe the effect of trees, shrubs and plants near ground which affect the wind environment of pedestrian level. Canopy model can be used to reproduce the aerodynamic effects of trees, shrubs and plants near ground. In this paper, CFD simulation methods coupled with the tree canopy model to predict wind environment of pedestrian level in high-rise residential building block were suggested and the validity was analyzed by comparison between measurement and CFD results.

Recently rapid urbanization facilitates development of high-rise building complex including apartment and office building in urban area. Many problems related with high-rise building are reported. Especially, unpleasant strong winds in pedestrian area are frequently encountered around the high-rise building. CFD simulation methods are used to analyze the wind environment of pedestrian level in high-rise building block. However the results show differences between CFD and measurement. The reason for the difference is that conventional CFD simulation couldn't consider the effect of trees, shrubs and plants which affect the wind environment. Canopy model is a solution to solve the limitation of CFD analysis. In this paper, the canopy model to predict wind environment of pedestrian level by CFD simulation will be proposed and the validity will be analyzed by comparison of measurement and CFD prediction.

Ball bearings are a major component of mechanical parts for transmitting rotation. Compared to tapered roller bearings, ball bearings offer less rolling resistance, which leads to reduced heat generation during operation. Because of these characteristics, ball bearings are widely used in electric vehicles and machine tools. The design of ball bearing cages has recently emerged as a major issue in ball bearing design. Cage design requires pre-verification of performance using theoretical or experimental formula or computational fluid dynamics (CFD). However, CFD analysis is time-consuming, making it difficult to apply in case studies for design decisions and is mainly used in performance prediction following design confirmation. To use CFD in the early stages of design, main-taining analytical accuracy while reducing the time required for analysis are necessary. Accordingly, this study proposes a laminar steady-state segment CFD technique to solve the problem of long CFD analytical times and to enable the use of CFD analysis in the early stages of design. To verify the reliability of the CFD analysis, a bearing drag torque test is performed, and the results are compared with the analytical results. The proposed laminar steady-state segment CFD technique is expected to be useful for case studies in bearing design, including cage design.

The purpose of this study is to use the CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) method for the ground source heat pump(GSHP) system with vertical U-tube ground heat exchangers. In order to predict LWT(leaving water temperature) in the length of time, This simulation is used by utilizing FLUENT which is commercial CFD code. It was performed by based on four boreholes in the field. Comparing with the results of CFD and field measurement for LWT, the results of CFD was presented very good agreement with 1.0% average difference.

본 연구에서는 수직형 지중 열교환기의 3차원 CFD 해석 기법을 제안하여 2개소의 현장 열응답 시험과 비교하였다. CFD 해석 비교를 위해 GAMBIT을 이용하여 지중과 지중 열교환기 형상을 모델링하였으며, 상용코드인 FLUENT를 사용하여 3차원 열전달 유동 해석을 수행하였다. 2개소의 현장 열응답 시험에서 도출된 지중 유효 열전도도와 지중 초기온도를 경계조건으로 사용하였으며, 시간에 따른 지중 열교환기의 입구온도 변화는 profile을 사용하여 실제 조건을 모사하였다. CFD 해석 결과 2개소의 지중 열교환기 출구온도는 $0.5^{\circ}C$ 범위 내에서 예측하였고, 기울기는 1.6% 이내에서 적절히 예측하였다. 향후 CFD 해석 기법을 활용하여 지중 열교환기 깊이, 형상 및 배열 변화 등에 따른 성능예측에 활용하고자 한다.

본 연구는 스프링클러 헤드 근처에서 형성되는 액막의 자유표면 유동에 대해 CFD 모델을 적용하여 해석하고 스프링클러의 초기분무 특성 예측을 위한 기존 이론식의 결과와 비교를 통해 이론 모델의 타당성을 검토하였다. CFD 해석은 상용 해석프로그램인 CFX 14.0을 이용하였으며 노즐과 디플렉터로 이루어진 단순형상에 대해 표준난류모델과 VOF법을 적용하여 해석을 수행하였다. 평판부의 디플렉터 끝단에서 속도분포는 CFD 해석과 경험식이 매우 잘 일치된 결과를 보였으나 기하학적 형상이 복잡한 부분에서는 속도분포의 차이를 보였다. 이론모델에서 예측된 평균액적크기는 실제 스프링클러 헤드에서 측정된 평균액적크기에 대한 이전 연구결과와 큰 차이를 보였다. 그러나 이론 모델은 스프링클러 헤드의 초기 액적형성과정의 메커니즘을 이해하고 실험적 접근이 용이하지 않은 상황에서 분무 액적의 특성을 예측하는데 유동한 도구로 활용될 수 있다.

Accurate prediction of a supersonic missile base drag continues to defy even well-rounded CFD codes. In an effort to address the accuracy and predictability of the base drags, the influence of grid system and competitive turbulence models on the base drag is analyzed. Characteristics of some turbulence models is reviewed through incompressible turbulent flow over a flat plate, and performance for the base drag prediction of several turbulence models such as Baldwin-Loman(B-L), Spalart-Allmaras(S-A), k-$\varepsilon$, k-$\omega$ model is assessed. When compressibility correction is injected into the S-A model, prediction accuracy of the base drag is enhanced. The NSWC wind tunnel test data are utilized for comparison of CFD and semi-empirical codes on the accuracy of base drag predictability: they are about equal, but CFD tends to perform better. It is also found that, as angle of attack of a missile with control fins increases, even the best CFD analysis tool we have lacks the accuracy needed for the base drag prediction.

This paper presents the state of the art of the CFD applications to vegetated open-channel flows. First, important aspects of the physics of vegetated flows found through the laboratory experiments are briefly reviewed. Then, previous CFD applications to one-dimensional vertical structure, partly-vegetated flows, compound open-channel flows with floodplain vegetation, and fully three-dimensional numerical simulations are reviewed. Finally, topics for further researches such as relationship between the resistance and flexural rigidity, additional drag due to foliages, and melting the experience of CFD with the depth-averaged modeling, are suggested.
