A engineering analysis has been conducted to study operating characteristics of a supersonic exhaust diffuser simulating high altitude atmosphere from a flow-developing point of view. Emphasis is placed in the detail flow structure resulting from several design- and operating- parameters of the diffuser such as the area ratios of a exhaust nozzle to the diffuser, the vacuum chamber size, and jet pressure.

Viscous flow around actual ship is calculated by an use of RANS equations. The propriety of this computing method, usefulness to hull form design and the scale effect which is the effect of viscous flow depending on the scale of ship model are investigated. Reynolds stress is modelled by using k-${\varepsilon}$ turbulence model and the law of wall is applied near the body. Body fitted coordinates are introduced for the treatment of the arbitrary 3-dimensional shape of the ship hull form. The transformed equations in the computational domain are numerically solved by an employment of FVM. In the calculation of pressure, SIMPLE method is adopted and the solution of the discretized equation is obtained by the line-by-line method with the use of TDMA The calculations of two ships, 4410 TEU container carrier and 50,000 DWT class bulk carrier, are performed at model and actual ship scale. The results are compared and discussed with the model test results which are viscous resistance, nominal wake distribution at propeller plane and limiting streamline on the hull surface. They describe the effect of stem form and the scale effect very well. In particular, the calculated nominal wake distribution and limiting streamline are agreed qualitatively with the experiments and the viscous resistance values are estimated within ${\pm}5%$ difference from the resistance tests.

The flow analysis has been made by applying the turbulent models in the helically coiled tubes of heat transfer. The k-${\varepsilon}$ and Spalart-Allmaras turbulent models are used in which the structured grid is applied for the simulation. The velocity vector, the pressure contour, the change of residuals along the iteration number and the friction factors are simulated by solving the Navier-Stokes equations to make clear the Reynolds number effect. The helical tube increases the centrifugal forces by which the wall shear stress become larger on the outer side of the tube. The centrifugal force makes the heat transfer rate locally larger due to the increase of the flow energy, which finds out the close relationship between the pressure drop and friction factor in the internal flow. The present numerical results are compared with others, for example, in the value of friction factor for validation.

Two-dimensional turbulent plane jet which is under the pressure gradient in the transverse direction is studied numerically. Full Navier-Stokes equations are used to correctly account for the pressure variation in the transverse direction. Using the standard k-.epsilon. turbulence model as a closure relationship, a time marching procedure gives the velocity field. The temperature fields are obtained for two different cases : (1) Hot jet is issued into the cold still air, and (2) Hot jet is issued into the surrounding across which exists a temperature difference. The velocity and temperature fields along with other flow and heat-transfer characteristics for two different pressure gradients are presented. A simple formula that relates the jet trajectory to the pressure gradient is also proposed. The mass flux in the longitudinal direction and the jet halfwidth seem insensitive to the pressure gradient. However, the pressure gradient increases the heat flux in the longitudinal direction as well as in the transverse direction.

Flows in segmented arc-heaters have been calculated for prediction of experimental operating condition or for analysis and design of arc-heater itself. Some researchers succeeded in calculating accurately inner flows of a arc-heater, but could not made mathematical models which satisfy various operating conditions for many arc-heaters. this study is forced on turbulence for the generality of mathematical model. Instead of algebraic turbulence models which are frequently used for calculating inner flow of arc-heater, two equation turbulent models are used. Prediction results agree well with experiment data and it was confirmed that $k-\varepsilon$ two equation turbulence model is appropriate for a flow in an arc heater throughout extensive numerical testing.

The unsteady supersonic flow over tandem cavities has been analyzed by the integration of Navier-Stokes equations with the k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model. The unsteady flow is characterized by the periodicity due to the mutual relation between the shear layer and the internal flow in cavities. The upwind TVD scheme based on the flux vector split with the van Leer limiters is used. The results show the principal frequency is very reasonable. The principal frequency of the rear cavity due to the front cavity has been analyzed by the combination of the several aspect ratios of cavities. In the case of the front cavity of low aspect ratio, the frequencies of tandem cavities are almost same, because two shear layers developed from each cavity are mixed and developed to one shear layer. However, in the case of the front cavity of high aspect ratio, the characteristis of frequency are very different, because the second shear layer is developed in the diffused first shear layer.

하천 내 식생은 수리학, 지형학 및 생태학적으로 매우 중요하다. 식생은 하천 수생물들의 서식처를 제공할 뿐만 아니라 필터와 같은 역할을 함으로써 부유사에 의한 하천오염물의 퇴적을 유발하여 하천의 수질을 개선시킨다. 더욱이, 하천 내 흐름 및 난류구조를 변경시킴으로써 식생주변의 유사 퇴적량 및 분포에 크게 영향을 미치고, 결국 하천의 지형을 변화시킨다. 개수로의 식생에 대한 영향은 주로 실험 및 수치모델을 이용하여 연구되었고 전단면이 식재된 조건에서 식생의 항력계수, 식생역내의 부유사 및 확산에 관한 연구가 진행되어왔다. 이러한 연구를 통해 식생역 내의 전단력이 감소하여 부유사퇴적이 증가하고 식생역과 비식생역 사이의 운동량 교환에 의해 부유사 퇴적이 증가함을 보였다. 그러나 개수로에서 존재하는 유한한 크기의 식생에 의한 흐름 및 유사분포에 관한 연구는 아직 미흡하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 침수하지 않은 원형 식생 주변에서 발생하는 흐름특성을 수치모의 하였다. 침수하지 않은 원형식생 하류에서 발생하는 흐름을 계산하기 위해 2차원 수치모형을 적용하였다. 식생에 의한 저항을 고려하기 위해 운동량 방정식에 식생항을 추가하였고 $k-{\varepsilon}$ 난류모형을 적용하였다. 수치모의 조건은 Zong and Nepf (2012)의 수리실험을 참고하여 수로의 길이는 12 m, 폭은 1.2 m로 설정하였다. 0.13 m 수심을 갖는 개수로에 0.22 m 지름을 갖는 원형식생을 상류경계로부터 1.0 m 떨어진 곳에 설정하였다. 식생의 밀도($6{\sim}77m^{-1}$)를 변화시키면서 원형식생 하류의 흐름거동을 분석하였다. 식생밀도가 높은 경우에는 원형식생 양 측면에서 유발된 전단층들의 상호작용에 의해 하류에서 와류가 발생하였다. 와류가 발생하는 위치에서 난류강도가 가장 크게 나타났다. 그러나 식생밀도가 일정 값보다 낮아지면 와류가 발생하지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper describes the smoke movement of a fire field model based on a self-developed SMEP(Smoke Movement Estimating Program) code to the simulation of fire induced flows in the two types of compartment space containing the radiation effect under smoke movement in room fire. The SMEP using PISO algorithm solves conservation equations for mass, momentum, energy and species, together with those for the modified k-$\varepsilon $ turbulence model with buoyancy term. Also it solves the radiation equation using the discrete ordinates method. The result of the calculated smoke temperature containing radiation effect has shown reasonable agreement compared with the experimental data. On the other hand, a difference of a lot was found between the temperature predicted by the SMEP with only convection effect and obtained by the experimental result. This seems to come from the radiation effect of $H_2$O and $CO_2$ gas under smoke productions. Thus, the consideration of the radiation effect under smoke in fire may be necessary in order to produce more realistic result.

This paper is concerned with the development of a three-dimensional numerical model for coastal circulation and heat transport with improved prediction ability. The model uses fully nonlinear, time-dependent three-dimensional, $\sigma$-transformed equations of motion and equation of heat transport The model was verified with experimental data for wind-driven current in a one-dimensional channel and thermal jets flowing into stagnant waters and applied for unsteady flow induced by tide and thermal jets in coastal waters around Kori nuclear power plant. The model results were in good agreements with experimental data sets for wind-driven current and thermal jet, and field observed data sets in coastal waters. This study has shown that the $\kappa$-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model is applicable to various coastal conditions without any modification of turbulence constants.

Complex thermal hydraulic characteristics exist inside the reactor because the reactor internals consist of fuel assembly, internal structures and so on. In this study, to examine the effect of Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS)-based two-equation turbulence models in the analysis of flow distribution inside a 1/5 scaled-down APR+, simulation was performed using the commercial computational fluid dynamics software, ANSYS CFX R.13 and the predicted results were compared with the measured data. It was concluded that reactor internal flow pattern was locally different depending on the turbulence models. In addition, the prediction accuracy of k-${\varepsilon}$ model was superior to that of other two-equation turbulence models and this model predicted the relatively uniform distribution of core inlet flow rate.
