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.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the wind force distribution on the two single-span arched plastic house depending upon the house spacing and wind direction, which may provide the fundamental criteria for the structural design. In order to specify the wind force distribution, the variation of the wind force coefficients, the mean wind force coefficients and the drag force coefficients were estimated from the wind tunnel test data. The results obtained are as follows : 1. At the wind direction of 90$^{\circ}$, there was a typical span interval at which the maximum negative pressure was occured at the edge of the inside walls. 2. In the consideration of wind loads, the wind force coefficients estimated from independent single-span arched plastic house should not be directly applied to the structural design on the double houses separated. 3. The average maximum negative wind force on the inside walls was occured at the wind direction of 90$^{\circ}$, and the variations depending on the span intervals was not significant. 4. The average maximum drag force was occured at the wind direction of 300, and the magnitude of drag force was more significant at the first house. As the distance between two houses was increased, the drag force was slightly increased for every wind direction.

진동하는 에어포일의 항력계수 변화에 미치는 레이놀즈수 영향을 조사하기 위한 실험적 연구가 수행되었다. NACA 0012 에어포일은 ${\pm}6^{\circ}$의 진동 진폭을 갖고, 1/4 시위를 기준으로 피칭운동을 하도록 하였다. 실험조건에서 자유흐름속도는 1.98, 2.83 그리고 4.03 m/s이며, 이를 근거로 한 시위길이 레이놀즈수는 각각 $2.3{\times}10^4$, $3.3{\times}10^4$, $4.8{\times}10^4$이다. 항력계수는 근접후류에서 2축 열선프로브(X-type, 55R51)로 측정된 평균속도 분포로부터 산출되었다. 레이놀즈수 2.3×104에서 항력계수는 음(-)의 댐핑(negative damping)을 보이며, 에어포일이 공기력에 의해 가진 될 수 있는 불안정한 상태를 나타내었다. 반면에 레이놀즈수가 $3.3{\times}10^4$에서 $4.8{\times}10^4$이다로 증가하면서 항력계수 곡선은 양(+)의 댐핑(positive damping)을 나타내었다. 따라서 항력계수 변화는 레이놀즈수 $2.3{\times}10^4$와 $4.8{\times}10^4$ 사이에 상당한 차이가 있다는 것을 나타낸다.

A conceptual design of a three-surface strike fighter was studied and stealth performance was taken into account to enhance survivability and battle effectiveness. CATIA was used to design the aircraft's three-dimensional prototype model and the weapon carriage arrangement was also studied. The aircraft's RCS characteristics and distributions under X, S, C, and L bands were simulated using the RCSPlus software, which is based on the PO method. Pressure and velocity distributions of the flow field were also simulated using CFD. A turbulence model was based on standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ function and N-S functions were used during the CFD computation. Lift coefficients, drag coefficients, and lift-to-drag ratio were obtained by aerodynamic simulation. The results showed that: (1) the average value of head-on RCS between ${\pm}30^{\circ}$ is below -3.197 dBsm, and (2) the lift coefficient is 0.34674, the drag coefficient is 0.04275, and the lift-to-drag ratio is 8.11087 when the attack angle is $2.5^{\circ}$.

군에서 사용하는 탄약의 보관 및 취급상 발생할 수 있는 외형결함을 가정하여 그것이 사거리에 미치는 영향을 예측하였다. 외형결함은 탄체두부의 오자이브 형상에 각 1.5mm, 3.3mm의 축대칭 함몰부가 생기는 것으로 가정하였다. FLUENT를 사용하여 마하수 별 항력계수를 해석하였고, 탄도해석 프로그램인 PRODAS에 항력계수 데이터를 입력하여 탄도해석을 하였다. 공력해석결과 1.5mm, 3.3mm 함몰 탄체의 항력증가율은 정상탄체와 비교했을 때 아음속 영역에서는 큰 차이를 보이지 않았으나, 초음속 영역에서 각각 평균 3%, 9% 의 증가율을 보였다. 최대 사거리는 포구속도 650m/s를 기준으로 각각 1%, 3% 감소한 결과를 보였다.

본 연구는 조도보정 블록수로에서의 체적밀집도를 정의하고, 평균유속(V)과 수리반경(R)의 곱인 VR, 블록 Reynolds수($Re^*$), 항력계수($\acute{C}_D$) 및 바닥전단특성의 바닥조도계수($n_b$)를 분석하여 조도계수(n)를 산정하였다. VR과 블록Reynolds수가 증가함에 따라 조도계수가 감소하여 일정함에 수렴하는 경험적인 양상을 확인하였다. 블록Reynolds수의 증가에 따라 항력계수는 감소하여 일정한 값에 수렴하는 것으로 나타났다. 블록Reynolds수가 큰 난류구간에서는 항력계수는 밀집도로 정의한 조도블록의 형상에 지배적임을 볼 수 있다. 정확한 조도계수의 산정을 위해서는 블록Reynolds수와 체적밀집도에 의한 상관식의 개발이 요구된다. n-VR, $\acute{C}_D-Re^*$, $n_b-\acute{C}_D$상관에 대한 관계곡선식을 제시하였다. 조도계수를 산정할 수 있는 블록Reynolds수와 체적밀집도와의 상관관계식을 제시하였다. 실험결과를 토대로 블록Reynolds수와 체적밀집도에 의한 조도 계수 산정식을 이용한 HEC-RAS의 수리특성 분석결과는 실험결과와 잘 일치함을 보여주어 산정한 조도계수 추정식의 적용성을 확인하였다.

Numerical analysis was conducted to investigate flow and heat transfer characteristics in louver fin exchanger, which were influenced by louver pitch, fin pitch, louver angle and inlet velocity. Standard $k-\varepsilon$ turbulent modelling was used in this study, and compared with laminar modelling. As a result of this study, Nusselt number became smaller as louver pitch or fin pitch was greater. Drag coefficient became smaller as louver pitch or fin pitch was greater, but it was little affected by inlet velocity.

A hybrid mesh based finite volume compressible flow code (PolySim) has been developed recently. Instead of the simple average method for the gradients of variables at each face, the volume average is applied for the calculation of the viscous flux. What is more, an improved Green Gauss method for the calculation of the gradient is also presented. These two techniques will improve both the accuracy and robustness of the code. The aerodynamic performance of this in-house cell centered code is examined by several widely-used bench-mark test cases. These cases include flows over flat plate and RAE 2822 etc. The comparisons on results between calculation and experiment are conducted. They show that the code can produce good numerical results which agree well with the corresponding experiment data.

In order to examine the effects of different wind deflectors on the wind load distribution characteristics of extra-large cooling towers, a comparative study of the distribution characteristics of wind pressures on the surface of three large cooling towers with typical wind deflectors and one tower without wind deflector was conducted using wind tunnel tests. These characteristics include aerodynamic parameters such as mean wind pressures, fluctuating wind pressures, peak factors, correlation coefficients, extreme wind pressures, drag coefficients and vorticity distribution. Then distribution regularities of different wind deflectors on global and local wind pressure of extra-large cooling towers was extracted, and finally the fitting formula of extreme wind pressure of the cooling towers with different wind deflectors was provided. The results showed that the large eddy simulation (LES) method used in this article could be used to accurately simulate wind loads of such extra-large cooling towers. The three typical wind deflectors could effectively reduce the average wind pressure of the negative pressure extreme regions in the central part of the tower, and were also effective in reducing the root of the variance of the fluctuating wind pressure in the upper-middle part of the windward side of the tower, with the curved air deflector showing particularly. All the different wind deflectors effectively reduced the wind pressure extremes of the middle and lower regions of the windward side of the tower and of the negative pressure extremes region, with the best effect occurring in the curved wind deflector. After the wind deflectors were installed the drag coefficient values of each layer of the middle and lower parts of the tower were significantly higher than that without wind deflector, but the effect on the drag coefficients of layers above the throat was weak. The peak factors for the windward side, the side and leeward side of the extra-large cooling towers with different wind deflectors were set as 3.29, 3.41 and 3.50, respectively.
