Three-dimensional cavity flow is analyzed with the code by using unstructured grid. Incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are used as governing equations, and governing equations are discretized by Finite Volume Method. Artificial compressibility method, proposed by Chorin, and developed by Soh, is used for coupling a pressure and a velocity. Cell-centered scheme is adopted in the code, this has the effect of having denser grid than nodal scheme when the same grid is used. Weighted Averaging scheme is used for the value at a nodal point. Cavity flow is analyzed, and this computed results are compared with the results in the research report

Numerical simulations of two-dimensional steady incompressible lid-driven flow in a square cavity are presented by a new solution code(PowerCFD) which adopts an unstructured cell-centered method. Solutions are obtained for configurations with a Reynolds number as high as 10,000 with both rectangular and hybrid types of unstructured grid mesh in order to validate the code's independency of grid type. Interesting features of the flow are presented in detail and comparisons are made with benchmark solutions found in the literature. It is found that the code is capable of producing accurately the nature of the lid-driven cavity flow at high Reynolds numbers with no grid type dependency.

A field reconstruction scheme for a cell centered finite volume method on unstructured meshes is developed. Regardless of mesh quality, this method is exact within a machine accuracy if the solution is linear, which means it has full second order accuracy. It does not have any limitation on cell shape except convexity of the cells and recovers standard discretization stencils at structured orthogonal grids. Accuracy comparisons with other popular reconstruction schemes are performed on a simple example.

For the accurate analysis of crack problems, considerable nodal refinement near the crack tip to capture singular stress field with sufficient accuracy to provide a useful computation of stress intensity factor is required. So, in this paper, adaptive nodal refinement scheme is proposed where nodes in restricted cell regions centered at crack tip are arranged in array for enhanced spatial resolution and adaptivity. With only cell-wise adaptive refinement scheme around crack tip fields, singularity of crack tip is sufficiently described to expect a successive crack propagate direction. Through numerical tests, accuracy of the proposed adaptive scheme is investigated and compared with the finite element and experimental results. By this implementation, it is shown that high accuracy is achieved by using iterative cell-wise solution method fur analyzing crack propagation problems.

Multigrid methods finite element/finite volume methods and their convergence properties are reviewed in a general setting. Some early theoretical results in simple finite element methods in variational setting method are given and extension to nonnested-noninherited forms are presented. Finally, the parallel theory for nonconforming element[13] and for cell centered finite difference methods [15, 23] are discussed.

Natural convection flows in a cubical air-filled slanted cavity that has one pair of opposing faces isothermal at different temperatures, $T_h\;and\;T_c$, respectively, the remaining four faces having a linear variation from $T_c\;toT_h$ are numerically simulated by a solution code (PowerCFD) using unstructured cell-centered method. Special attention is paid to three-dimensional flow and thermal characteristics according to a new orientation (diamond type) for the cubical-cavity benchmark problem in natural convection. Comparisons of the average Nusselt number at the cold face are made with experimental benchmark solutions found in the literature. It is found that the code is capable of producing accurately the nature of the laminar convection in a cubical air-filled slanted cavity with differentially heated walls.

Three-dimensional heat transfer characteristics for natural convection flows are numerically investigated in the doubly-inclined cubical-cavity according to the variation of a newly defined orientation angle �� of the hot wall surface from horizontal plane at moderate Rayleigh numbers. Numerical simulations of laminar flows are conducted in the range of Rayleigh numbers($10^4{\leq}Ra{\leq}10^5$) and $0^{\circ}{\leq}{\alpha}90^{circ}$ with a solution code(PowerCFD) employing unstructured cell-centered method. Comparisons of the average Nusselt number at the cold face are made with benchmark solutions and experimental results found in the literature. It is found that the average Nusselt number at the cold wall has a maximum value around the specified orientation ${\alpha}$ at each Rayleigh number. Special attention is also paid to three-dimensional thermal characteristics in natural convection according to new orientation angles at Ra��= $1{\times}10^5$, in order to investigate a new additional heat transfer characteristic found in the range of above Ra = $6{\times}10^4$.

Natural convection flows in a cubical air-filled cavity that has one pair of opposing faces isothermal at different temperatures, $T_h\;and\;T_c$ respectively, the remaining four faces having a linear variation from $T_c\;to\;T_h$ are numerically simulated by a solution code(PowerCFD) using unstructured cell-centered method. An extension to a previously published work, special attention of this work is paid to three-dimensional flow and thermal characteristics in nature convection according to new orientation at Ra= $1{\times}105$. Comparisons of the average Nusselt number at the cold face are made with benchmark solutions and experimental results found in the literature. It is demonstrated that the average Nusselt number on the cold face has a maximum value around the diamond-type inclination angle of $43.2^{\circ}\;at\;Ra=1{\times}105$. We also report the effect of new orientation on the type of flow and temperature structure in a cubical-cavity.

A numerical simulation is performed fur developing turbulent flow in a strongly curved 180 deg pipe and its downstream tangent by a new solution code(PowerCFD) which adopts an unstructured cell-centered method. The governing equations are discretized as the full elliptic from of the equations of motion. Three typical two-equation turbulence models of low-Reynolds-number form are used to approximate the turbulent stress field. Solutions fur both streamwise and circumferential velocity components are compared with the experimental data by Azzola et at.(1986). The ${\kappa}-{\omega}$ model by Wilcox(1988) is found to give better prediction performance than the other two. Predicted secondary velocities and streamwise velocity component contours at sequential longitudinal stations are also presented in order to enable a detailed description of the complete flow. It is also found that, in the bend both mean streamwise and secondary velocities never achieve a fully-developed state and the code is capable of producing very well the complex nature of steady flow in a strongly curved pipe.

격자 구조체는 강도 및 강성, 초경량 및 에너지 흡수 능력 등의 우수성을 가지고 있어서 전방위 산업에서 주목을 받고 있으나, 다양한 장점에도 불구하고 복잡한 형상에 따른 제조 공정의 어려움으로, 현재까지 광범위한 상용화 및 사용은 제한되고 있다. 한편 적층 제조는 전통적인 제조 방법으로는 불가능한 복잡한 기하학적 형상 제조가 가능한 기술로써, 격자 구조체 제조를 위한 최적 기술로 주목을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 3차원 좌표 방법으로 단위 셀을 형성하고, 단위셀의 바운더리 박스 크기 및 스트럿 반경에 따른 상대 밀도의 관계식을 도출하였다. 본 연구에서는 Simple Cubic(SC), Body-Centered Cubic(BCC) 및 Face-Centered Cubic(FCC)을 모델링 소프트웨어를 사용하여 상대 밀도 맞춤형 구조체를 설계하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 상대 밀도 산출식 정확도는 SC, BCC 및 FCC에서 98.3 %, 98.6 % 및 96.2%의 신뢰성을 확보하였다. 격자 구조체를 대상으로 시뮬레이션 수행 결과, 동일한 셀 배열 조건에서는 상대 밀도가 커짐에 따라 항복 하중이 커지고, 동일 배열 조건에서는 SC, BCC, FCC 순으로 압축 항복 하중이 작아지는 결과가 나타났다. 최종적으로 20 mm × 20 mm × 20 mm 크기의 구조체는 SC 단위 셀을 3×3×3 배열로 구성하는 것이 압축 하중에 대한 구조적 최적화가 가능한 것으로 나타났다.
