The k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence models by Launder et al.(1977, LPS) and Leschziner and Rodi(1981, LR) are modified to account for the secondary straining effect with having a generality in the present paper. The modified models are obtained by replacing the gradient Richardson number used to account for the secondary straining effect in the original models by a new parameter with a tensor-invariant correction form. These two modified models are used to predict the turbulent flow over a backward-facing step. In contrast to both standard and modified LR models, the modified LPS model is found to predict the reattachment point fairy well, as well as mean velocity, wall static pressure, turbulent kinetic energy and Reynolds shear stress in the recirculating region.

A two-dimensional backward facing step flow is simulated by using URANS and Detached Eddy Simulations(DES) approaches. Turbulence models adopted for URANS and DES simulations are Spalart-Allmaras(S-A) model and Shear Stress Transport(SST) model. The target flow with ER=1.125, $Re_H=37,500$ is experimentally studied by Driver & Seegmiller. Various versions of DES have been tested in this paper. Results of the simulations are compared with the experimental data available to evaluate the merits and demerits of URANS and several versions of DES. URANS simulation converges to a steady state and hence unsteady characteristics are not featured. DES simulations in general successfully mimic large scale structures and oscillation characteristics of the flow.

An experimental study on the structure of a separated shear layer downstream of the backward-facing step has been performed by examining mean flow and turbulent quantities in terms of free stream turbulence. When free stream turbulence exists, the entrainment rate of the separated shear layer and the flow rate in the recirculation region are enhanced, resulting in shorter reattachment length. The production and diffusion terms in the turbulent kinetic energy balance are shown to increase more than the dissipation term does. Rapid decrease of the pressure-strain term in the shear stress balance implies the enhancement of the three-dimensional motion by free stream turbulence.

본 연구에서는 후향계단 형상의 0.5 m/s의 속도를 갖는 유동을 DBD 플라즈마를 통해 제어하였다. electrode와 dieletric material로 각각 stainless foil과 polymide film을 사용하였으며, 고압의 AC power source를 사용하였다. 후향계단 전단과 수직 부분의 두 부분으로 나누어 각각 플라즈마를 발생시켰으며, 플라즈마 발생 위치에 따라서 유동의 재부착 지점이 변경됨을 확인 할 수 있었다.

An experimental investigation was conducted in order to determine the flammability limit of the solid fuel ramjet using the backward facing step flow combustion of the plexiglass grain. In order to get the different step height ratio, the grain was drilled straight forward or stepwise. The Phoenics computer code was adopted in order to compare. the flow patterns of the some sample tests using a non-reacting cold turbulent flow model. The stepwise grain give some loading advantage; specially thin and long shape grain design.

As a research to develop a SCRAM jet engine is actively conducted, a necessity to produce a high-enthalpy flow in a laboratory is increasing. In order to develop the SCRAM-jet engine, stabilized combustion in a supersonic flow-field should be attained, in which a duration time of flow is extremely short. Therefore, a mixing process of breathed air and fuel, which is injected into supersonic flow-fields is one of the most important problem. Since, the flow inside SCRAM jet engine has high-enthalpy, an experimental facility is required to produce such high-enthalpy flow-field. In this study, a detonation-driven shock tunnel was built and was used to produce high-enthalpy flow. Further-more, SCRAM jet engine model equipped backward-facing step was installed at test section and flow-fields were visualized using color-schlieren technique and high speed video camera. The fuel was injected perpendicular to the flow of Mach number three behind backward-facing step. The height of the step, distance of injection and injection pressure were changed to investigate the effects of step on a mixing characteristic between air and fuel. The schlieren photograph and pressure histories show that the fuel was ignited behind the step.

A numerical investigation has been carried out on recirculation zone formed downstream of a compressible flow over a backward facing step. The study has been performed by solving Two-Dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. The system of governing equations has been solved, using an explicit Harten-Yee Non- MUSCL Modified flux type TVD scheme and a zero-equation algebraic turbulence model to calculate the eddy viscosity coefficient. The recirculation region dimensions are characterized over a range of Mach numbers of fixed step height 5mmThe detail of recirculation zone such as pressure, temperature, recirculation length, strength etc are reported. The variations of these characteristics due to change of Mach number are also presented.

This study is carried out in order to evaluate the performances of the Reynolds stress turbulence models such as SSG and GL models in the calculation of separated flow over backward-facing stepp.In addition, two slow return-to-isotropy models, YA and Rotta models combined with rapid part of SSG model are also tested. The finite volume method is used to discretize the governing differential equations, and the power-law scheme is used to approximate the convection terms. The SIMPLE algorithm is used for pressure correction in the governing equations. The results show that SSG model gives the better prediction near the reattachment point than GL model. In cases that the rapid term of SSG model is combined with Rotta and YA slow models, the results show the better predictions of stress components in recirculation zone, but indicate inaccuracy in the predictions of mean velocity.

Incompressible flow over a backward-facing step is computed by low Reynolds number turbulence models in order to compare with direct simulation results. In this study, selected low Reynolds number 1st and 2nd (Algebraic Stress Model : ASM) moment closure turbulence models are adopted and compared with each other. Each turbulence model predicts different flow characteristics, different re-attachment point, velocity profiles and Reynolds stress distribution etc. Results by .kappa.-.epsilon. turbulence models indicate that predicted re-attachment lengths are shorter than those by standard model. Turbulent intensity and eddy viscosity by low Reynolds number .kappa.-.epsilon. models are still greater than DNS results. The results by algebraic stress model (ASM) are more reasonable than those by .kappa.-.epsilon. models. The convective scheme is QUICK (Quadratic Upstream Interpolation for Convective Kinematics) and SIMPLE algorithm is adopted. Reynolds number based on step height and inlet free stream velocity is 5100.

본 연구는 마하수 2.5의 초음속 영역에서 마하수 1.0의 슬롯 분사가 있는 후향계단 형상에 대한 유동장 특성을 분석하기 위하여 초음속풍동 시험부를 설계, 제작하였다. 비행체가 고속으로 움직일 때 공동 주위의 유동은 매우 복잡하여 수치해석 결과를 검증할 초음속풍동 시험 자료가 필요하기 때문에 기존의 2차원 대칭형 노즐을 아랫면이 평판인 비대칭형 노즐로 수정하였다. 특성곡선해법을 이용한 비점성 노즐을 설계하고, 시험을 통해 얻은 경계층 두께를 노즐에 반영하여 보정한 기법을 C 언어로 프로그래밍하여 얻은 결과를 수치해석 결과와 비교하여 검증하였다. 슬롯 분사 시 지속적인 유동장 변화 분석을 위한 초음속 유지시간 확보를 위해 저장탱크의 압력 변화에 따른 PID 제어프로그램 수정으로 초음속 유동 유지시간을 약 5초에서 약 6초로 1초 정도 연장하여 제어 효율을 향상하였고, 슬롯 분사가 있는 후향계단에서의 유동장 변화를 슐리렌장치로 가시화하여 복잡한 유동장 특성을 확인하였다. 향후 슬롯 분사의 속도와 유량, 유동장의 온도를 변화하여 공동에서의 막냉각 효과 분석을 위한 장비로 사용할 계획이다.
