A Navier-stokes based finite volume method has been developed to analyze an incompressible, steady state, turbulent wall-jet flow. The standard k-e model, the RNG ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ model and their nonlinear counterparts are adopted as a closure relationship. Comparison with the experimental data shows that a linear ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ model performs satisfatorily for two-dimensional wall-jet flows. However, as the flow becomes three dimensional, the linear model fails to predict the spanwise jet growth accurately and the nonlinear model needs to be adopted to capture three-dimensional flow characteristics.

환기중인 실험축사내에서 가축의 현열과 환기공기의 온도차에 의한 열부력(熱浮力)(thermal buoyancy)이 공기유동 및 온도분포에 미치는 영향을 구명(究明)하기 위하여 TEACH 컴퓨터프로그램($k-{\varepsilon}$ 난류모형 및 SIMPLE계열 Algorithm)을 Curvilinear Coordinates에 맞게 변형하였다. 계산한 축사내 공기유통 및 온도분포의 유의성(有意性) 검증은 Boon(1978)의 실험결과를 이용하였다. 열부력의 크기에 따른 유동의 변화를 관찰하기 위하여 유입공기의 온도를 $17^{\circ}C$와 $10^{\circ}C$ 두 수준으로 입력하였으며, 가축의 현열플릭스(flux)는 실내온도에 따라 변화하므로 유압공기의 온도가 $17^{\circ}C$일 때는 130W/$m^2$, $10^{\circ}C$일 때는 170W/$m^2$을 경계조건으로 입력하였다. 예측한 공기유동의 형태는 실험값(Boon, 1978)과 비교하여 대체로 만족할만한 결과를 얻었다. 그러나 유입공기의 온도가 $10^{\circ}C$인 경우, 예측 공기유동은 실험 유동형태와 차이가 있었다. 즉, 실험에서는 수평슬롯으로 유입된 공기가 바로 아래로 굴절되어 유동(流動)하였으나, 계산의 결과는 일정 거리로 수평방향으로 유동하다가 아래로 굴절하였다. 이런 유동의 차이는 경험적으로 열부력(熱浮力)에 민감하게 반응하지 않는 k-${\varepsilon}$ 난류(亂流)모형의 적용이 원인이 되거나 실험의 부적절한 수행이 원인이 될 수도 있다. 이 유동(流動)의 Reynolds 수(數) (Re)는 약 3,300, 수정Ar수(修正Ar數)(Corrected Archimedes Number : $Ar_c$)64로써, $Ar_c$ <30 이거나 $Ar_c$ >75이면 유입공기의 제트는 수평유동한다는 Randall & Battams(1979)의 연구결과와는 일치하였다. 그러나 공기제트의 굴절은 유동의 특성이 같다하더라도 유체의 성질, 축사의 기하학적 형태에 따라서 매우 민감하게 반응하므로 실제 실험을 통한 재검정과정을 거쳐야 할 것으로 판단된다. Fig. 9와 Fig. 10의 기하학적 형태의 지점별 예측온도와 측정온도(Boon, 1978)와의 편차는 대부분의 지점에서는 $1^{\circ}C$ 미만으로 상당히 정확하였으며, 최대의 온도차는 Fig. 10의 지점 13에서 $1.7^{\circ}C$이었다.

육상 수조식 양식장은 해수를 끌어들여 어류를 기르는 데 사용된다. 본 연구는 사각 수조 내의 다양한 기하학적 관계와 유동에 대한 유동 특성을 도출하였다. 수치해석은 유한 체적법과 SIMPLE 기수법은 수치해석법을 활용하였으며, 비압축성 유체와 3차원 표준 $k-{\varepsilon}$난류 모델을 적용하였다. 속도 분포, 온도 분포에 대한 정보를 확보하였다. 실험과 수치해석의 결과가 정성적으로 잘 일치함을 보였다. 양식장의 깊이가 증가함에 따라 바닥 쪽의 유동이 더욱 안정됨을 확인하였다. 이는 각종 배설물 등의 정체현상으로 연결될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 수조내의 온도는 유입구의 초기 온도가 중요하며, Re 수가 증가할수록 온도는 상승하고 유입구의 반대 벽면 근처의 온도가 유입구 보다 증가함을 알 수 있었다.

A three-dimensional multi-phase flow is simulated around a smooth tire. This simulation is conducted by solving Navier-Stokes equation with a k-$\varepsilon$ turbulent model. The numerical calculations are carried out by modeling a multi-phase free surface flow mixed with air and water at the inlet. The numerical solutions show an intuitively resonable behavior of water around a moving tire. The calculated pressure around the tire surface along the moving direction is presented. The moving velocities of the tire are chosen to be 30, 40, 60, and 70 km/h. The numerically simulated pressures around the tire are compared with existing experimental data. The comparison shows a new possible tool of analyzing a hydroplaning phenomenon for an automobile tire by means of a computational fluid dynamics.

A numerical prediction was performed to clarify the air motion in the cylinder of an axisymmet-ric four-stroke reciprocating engine at its intake and compression stage. A scheme of finite volume method is used for the calculation. Modified $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model is adopted and wall function is applied to the grids near the wall. The predicted mean velocity and rms velocity profiles showed a reasonable agreement with an available experimental data at its intake and compression stage. The predicted in-cylinder flow fields show that a strong turbulent twin vortex structure is pro-duced during induction but it commences to decay rapidly around inlet valve closure. The mean velocity continues to fall to a low level during compression but the turbulence intensity attains an approximate constant level.

A numerical analysis based on two-dimensional and three-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations has been carried out for double-circular-arc compressor cascades and the results are compared with available experimental data at various incidence angles. The 2-D and 3-D computational codes based on SIMPLE algorithm adopt pressure weighted interpolation method for non-staggered grid and hybrid scheme for the convertive terms. Turbulence modeling is very important for prediction of cascade flows, which are extremely complex with separation and reattachment by adverse pressure gradient. In this paper k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model with wall function is used to increase efficiency of computation times.

The heavy moderator acts as the ultimate heat-sink in an operating CANDU reactor. HUKINS has been developed to investigate moderator flow patterns. HUKINS consists of a 38.4-mm-thick cylindrical shell with a 0.95 m inner diameter and 88 sus-tubes that produce a total heat of 10 kW. A chemical visualization method was selected to estimate the occurrence of typical moderator flow patterns. Momentum-dominated flow, mixed flow, and buoyancy-dominated flow are detected under conditions of a heat load of 7.7 kW and input mass flow rates of 4, 7, and 11 L/min. The experimental results are similar to the results of a CFD simulation that consisted of approximately 1.9 million grids and was conducted using the k-${\varepsilon}$ turbulence model. Therefore, both the present experiments and simulations using HUKINS, a 1/8-scale model, represent all three important flow patterns expected in the real CANDU6 reference reactor. Thus, it has been demonstrated that HUKINS could be useful in the study of CANDU6 moderator circulation.

The flow past a wall mounted square cylinder, a typical and basic shape of building, bridge or offshore structure, was simulated using URANS computation through adoption of three turbulence models, namely, the k-ε model, k-ω model, and the v²-f model. It is well known that this flow is naturally unstable due to the Karman vortex shedding and exhibits a complex flow structure in the wake region. The mean flow field including velocity profiles and the dominant frequency of flow oscillation that was from the simulations discussed earlier were compared with the experimental data observed by Wang et al. (2004; 2006). Based on these comparisons it was found that the v²-f model is most accurate for the URANS simulation; moreover, the k-ω model is also acceptable. However, the k-ε model was found to be unsuitable in this case. Therefore, v²-f model is proved to be an excellent choice for the analysis of flow with massive separation. Therefore, it is expected to be used in future by studies aiming to control the flow separation.

In the present study, the flow around a circular cylinder at $Re=3.6{\time}10^6$ is numerically simulated using URANS approach. The objective of this study is to evaluate the turbulence models(Realizable k-${\varepsilon}$, RNG k-${\varepsilon}$) through the prediction of the unsteady flow characteristics around the cylinder. The time-averaged drag coefficients and vortex shedding phenomenon in the wake region are compared to available experimental data and other numerical results. The simulation with Realizable k-${\varepsilon}$ model is found to be more dissipative due to large eddy viscosity predicted in the wake region while the simulation with RNG k-${\varepsilon}$ model predicts a complex vortex shedding phenomenon with more coherent structures realistically.
