The primary goal of this research is to investigate flow separation phenomena using various turbulence models. Also investigated are the effects of free-stream turbulence intensity on the flow over a NACA 0018 airfoil. The flow field around a NACA 0018 airfoil has been numerically simulated using RANS at Reynolds numbers ranging from 100,000 to 200,000 and angles of attack (AoA) ranging from 0° to 18° with various inflow conditions. A parametric study is conducted over a range of chord Reynolds numbers for free-stream turbulence intensities from 0.1 % to 0.5 % to understand the effects of each parameter on the suction side laminar separation bubble. The results showed that increasing the free-stream turbulence intensity reduces the length of the separation bubble formed over the suction side of the airfoil, as well as the flow prediction accuracy of each model. These models were used to compare the modeling accuracy and processing time improvements. The K- SST performs well in this simulation for estimating lift coefficients, with only small deviations at larger angles of attack. However, a stall was not predicted by the transition k-kl-omega. When predicting the location of flow reattachment over the airfoil, the transition k-kl-omega model also made some over-predictions. The Cp plots showed that the model generated results more in line with the experimental findings.

초음속 주 유동으로의 수직분사에 의해 생성되는 2차원 정상상태 유동장에 대한 수치모사를 수행하였다. 난류효과를 위해서 무차원 벽면거리($y^+$)를 고려한 2방정식 k-${\omega}$ SST 모델을 사용하였다. 또한 격자계에 따른 오차범위를 나타내는 방법으로 GCI(Gird Convergence Index)를 사용하여 해의 수렴성을 측정하였다. 표면 압력분포, 박리거리, 침투높이 등에 대해 실험결과 및 다른 난류모델을 이용한 결과들과 비교하였다. k-${\omega}$ SST 난류모델은 낮은 압력비에 대해서 표면 압력분포 및 박리거리 등을 정확하게 예측하였다. 그러나 압력비가 증가함에 따라 수치적 예측이 실험결과와 차이를 보이고 있다. 상기한 모든 결과는 격자계에 따른 해의 수렴성의 오차범위 1% 이내에서 측정되었다.

The two-dimensional incompressible and compressible Navier-Stokes codes are developed for the computation of the viscous turbulent flow over high-lift airfoils. Incompressible code using pseudo-compressibility and dual-time stepping method involves a conventional upwind differencing scheme for the convective terms and LU-SGS scheme for time integration. Compressible code also adopts an FDS scheme and LU-SGS scheme. Several two-equation turbulence models (the standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ model, the $k-{\omega}$ model. and $k-{\omega}$ SST model) are evaluated by computing the flow over single and multi-element airfoils. The compressible and incompressible codes are validated by computing the flow around the transonic RAE2822 airfoil and the NACA4412 airfoil, respectively. Both the results show a good agreement with experimental surface pressure coefficients and velocity profiles in the boundary layers. Also, the GA(W)-1 single airfoil and the NLR7301 airfoil with a flap are computed using the two-equation turbulence models. The grid systems around two- and three-element airfoil are efficiently generated using Chimera grid scheme, one of the overlapping grid generation methods.

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.

The transient response of an airfoil to a rapidly deploying spoiler is numerically investigated using the turbulent compressible Navier-Stokes equations in two dimensions. Algebraic Baldwin-Lomax model, Wilcox $\kappa-\omega$ model, and SST $\kappa-\omega$ turbulence model are used to calculate the unsteady separated flow due to the rapid spoiler deployment. The spoiler motion relative to a stationary airfoil is treated by an overset grid hounded by a Dynamic Domain-Dividing Line which has been devised by the authors. The adverse effects of the spoiler influenced by the spoiler location and the hinge gap are expounded. The numerical results are in reasonably good agreement with the existing experimental data.

Modelling an equilibrium atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) in computational wind engineering (CWE) and relevant areas requires the boundary conditions, the turbulence model and associated constants to be consistent with each other. Among them, the inflow boundary conditions play an important role and determine whether the equations of the turbulence model are satisfied in the whole domain. In this paper, the idea of modeling an equilibrium ABL through specifying proper inflow boundary conditions is extended to the SST $k-{\omega}$ model, which is regarded as a better RANS model for simulating the blunt body flow than the standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ model. Two new sets of inflow boundary conditions corresponding to different descriptions of the inflow velocity profiles, the logarithmic law and the power law respectively, are then theoretically proposed and numerically verified. A method of determining the undetermined constants and a set of parameter system are then given, which are suitable for the standard wind terrains defined in the wind load code. Finally, the full inflow boundary condition equations considering the scale effect are presented for the purpose of general use.

Turbulent flow analysis is conducted around the multi-stage launch vehicle including base region and detachment motion of strap-on boosters due to resultant aerodynamic forces and gravity is simulated. Aerodynamic solution procedure is coupled with rigid body dynamics for the prediction of separation behavior. An overset mesh technique is adopted to achieve maximum efficiency in simulating relative motion of bodies and various turbulence models are implemented on the flow solver to predict the aerodynamic forces accurately. At first, some preliminary studies are conducted to show the importance of base flow for the exact prediction of detachment motion and to find the most suitable turbulence model for the simulation of launch vehicle configurations. And then, developed solver is applied to the simulation of KSR-III, a three-stage sounding rocket researched in Korea. From the analyses, after-body flow field strongly affects the separation motions of strap-on boosters. Negative pitching moment at initial stage is gradually recovered and a strap-on finally results in a safe separation, while fore-body analysis shows collision phenomena between core rocket and booster. And a slight variation of motion is observed from the comparison between inviscid and turbulent analyses. Change of separation trajectory based on viscous effects is just a few percent and therefore, inviscid analysis is sufficient for the simulation of separation motion if the study is focused only on the movement of strap-ons.

The differential pressure venturi-cone flowmeter is an advanced flowmeter which has many advantages such as wide range of measurement, high accuracy, excellent flow turn-down ratio, low headless, short installation pipe length requirement, and etc. Like other differential pressure flowmeters, the venturi-cone flowmeter uses the law of energy conservation, but its shape and position make it perform better than others. The cone acts as its own flow conditioner and mixer, fully conditioning and mixing the flow prior to measurement. For the analysis, we used Reynolds-averaged Wavier-Stokes equations and k-$\omega$ turbulence model. The equations were fully transformed into the computational domain, the pressure-velocity coupling was made through SIMPLER algorithm, and the equations were discretized using finite analytic solutions of the liberalized equations(Finite Analytic Method). To control the separation phenomenon on the cone surface, we proposed a new shape of cone, and analyzed the flowfield in the new flowmeter system, and found the improvement on the performance of the new cone flowmeter.

만곡수로에서의 흐름 구조는 나선형 운동을 갖는 이차 재순환 흐름 그리고 만곡부 측벽으로부터 발생하는 흐름분리로 인한 전단층 등으로 복잡하다. 이 연구에서는 3개의 통계학적 난류모형($k-{\varepsilon}$, RNG $k-{\varepsilon}$, $k-{\omega}$ SST) 그리고 자유수면 변동 해석을 위한 VOF 기법을 적용한 비정상 Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) 계산을 수행하여 고진폭 만곡수로인 키노시타(Kinoshita) 수로에서의 이차류와 편수위를 해석하였다. 2차 정확도의 유한체적법을 이용하여 구한 해석결과를 기존 수리실험 자료와 비교하여 각 난류모형의 적용성을 평가하였다. 비정상 RANS 계산에서 적용한 3개의 통계학적 난류모형의 해석 결과를 분석해 보면 키노시타 수로에서 발생하는 만곡부 편수위는 3개 모형 모두 유사하게 모의하는 한편, 전반적인 이차류 분포는 $k-{\omega}$ SST상대적으로 잘 모의하는 것으로 나타났다. 하류에 위치한 만곡부 흐름에 영향을 미쳐 국부적으로 발생한 이차류와 이전의 만곡부 중앙 수면 부근에서 발생하는 한 쌍의 이차 와류가 존재하는 현상을 관측하였으며, $k-{\omega}$ SST 난류모형은 이러한 복잡한 와류 변화를 양호하게 모의했다. $k-{\varepsilon}$ 모형을 기반으로 개발된 두 모형으로 모의한 결과에서는 실험에서 관측된 중앙 만곡부에 존재하는 두 개의 이차류 중, 시계방향 와류가 재현되지 않는다. VOF기법을 이용해서 계산한 만곡부에서의 편수위 해석결과는 적용한 모든 난류모형에 대해서 전반적으로 실험값을 양호하게 재현하는 것으로 나타났다.

A diagnostic investigation is carried out to examine the igniter jet turbulence effects on the internal ballistics of solid rocket motors with divergent port. The numerical studies have been carried out with the help of a two dimensional k-omega turbulence model. It was inferred that increasing the igniter jet turbulence intensity is a possible way to decrease the pressure spike and pressurization rate, marginally during the ignition transient, by altering the location of the secondary ignition in solid rocket motors with non-uniform port.
