Endwall losses contribute significantly to the overall losses in modern turbomachinery, especially when aerodynamic airfoil load and pressure ratio are increased. Hence, reducing the extend and intensity of the secondary flow structures helps to enhance overall efficiency. From the large range of viable approaches, a promising combination positioning and height of endwall contouring was chosen. The objective of this study is to document the three-dimensional flow in a turbine cascade in terms of streamwise vorticity, total pressure loss distribution and static pressure distribution on the endwall and blade surface and to propose an appropriate positioning and height of the endwall contouring which show best secondary, overall loss reduction among the simulated endwall. The flow through the gas turbine were numerically analyzed using three dimensional Navier-Stroke equations with a commercial CFD code ANSYS CFX-10. The result shows that the overall loss is reduced near the flat endwall rather than contoured endwall, and the case of contoured endwall installed at 30% from leading edge with height of 25% for span showed best performance.

In this paper, the friction characteristic of engine bearings has been analyzed in terms of a friction loss power, a minimum film thickness and an oil film pressure. This analysis has been focused on the fuel economy improvement with a low viscosity engine oil such as SAE 0W-40, which is used for a friction loss reduction and increased for a Diesel fuel economy. The friction loss power, the minimum oil film thickness and oil film pressure distribution for plain bearings of a Diesel engine are analyzed using an AVL's EXCITE program with a conventional engine oils of SAE 5W-40 and 10W-40, and a low viscosity engine oil of SAE 0W-40. The computed results indicate that a viscosity of engine oils is closely related to the friction loss power and the decreased minimum film thickness in which is a key parameter of a load carrying capacity of an oil film pressure distribution. When the low viscosity engine oil is supplied to engine bearings, it does not affect to the formation of a minimum oil film thickness. But the friction loss power has been significantly affected by low viscosity engine oil at a low operating temperature of 0. Based on the FEM computed results, the low viscosity engine oil at a low temperature range will be an important factor for an improvement of the fuel economy improvement.

건조 후 수행하는 수압시험 또는 화물의 적재 등과 같은 정하중은 파랑변동하중에 비하여 선체구조물에 상당히 큰 응력을 유발한다. 이러한 정하중이력에 의하여, 선체구조물의 응력집중으로 인해 피로강도가 문제되는 용접이음부에서는, 재료의 탄소성 거동에 의하여 초기용접잔류응력이 상당히 이완될 것으로 예상된다. 따라서, 이러한 용접이음부의 피로강도를 평가할 때에는 이완된 잔류응력의 영향을 고려하는 것이 보다 합리적이다. 본 연구에서는 선체구조물의 여러 가지 용접형태 중 Padding plate가 용접된 형태에 대하여 정하중이력($0.5{\sigma}Y,\;0.85{\sigma}Y$)에 의한 초기 용접잔류응력의 변화를 측정하며, 잔류응력의 변화가 피로강도에 미치는 영향을 검토한다.

주요 구조물의 방호를 위해 에너지 흡수 능력이 뛰어난 알루미늄 폼을 갖는 희생부재를 제안하였다. 근거리 폭발에 의한 집중된 폭파하중의 압력 저감에 대한 외연적 유한요소해석을 통한 변수 연구를 수행하였다. 폭발하중의 규모는 Z=0.48~0.95 수준으로 설정하였고 경험적 폭발하중을 이용하였다. 알루미늄 폼의 해석 변수는 밀도와 두께로 설정하였고 덮개 여부를 고려하였다. 해석 결과로 부터 밀도가 낮고 두께가 두꺼울수록 전달압력의 수준을 알루미늄 폼의 항복강도 수준으로 제어할 수 있고 폭발의 규모가 증가하면 높은 밀도의 두꺼운 희생부재가 필요함을 보였다. 덮개는 두께의 영향이 뚜렷하고 폭발압력을 분산시키는 효과를 나타내었다. 폭발의 수준에 따라 희생부재의 에너지 소산의 정도가 달라지기 때문에 이를 고려한 희생부재의 설계변수 설정이 필요하다.

This study was carried out to present the pressure drop for various wind speeds through nine types of screens used in horticultural facilities. The screens have been widely used to prevent harmful insects from being entered into agricultural facilities, to reduce strong wind and to shade a light as well. Whatever the usage of the screens was, it was necessary to have good knowledge of how much the screen caused a pressure drop for wind speeds when analyzing both the inner thermal-flow distribution in the facility and the effect of reducing wind speed by using CFD. Furthermore, as for wind screens, the pressure drop for wind speeds was needed as a design load in evaluating the structural stability of the structures supporting the screens. Therefore, the pressure drop through the screens for wind speeds of 5~30 $m{\cdot}s^{-1}$ at about 5 $m{\cdot}s^{-1}$ interval and inflow angles of $0{\sim}45^{\circ}$ at an interval of $15^{\circ}$ was respectively measured in a subsonic wind tunnel. The relation of the pressure drop for various screens was well fitted as a secondorder polynomial expression.

The Francis-99 is a workshop initiated by the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Norway, and Lulea University of Technology (LTU), Sweden, in order to further validate the capabilities of the CFD technologies. The goal of the first workshop is to determine the state of the art of numerical predictions for steady operating conditions. When performing the CFD analysis, some geometry details are often neglected. In case of Francis Turbine, labyrinth seals are usually not include in the simulation domain, this may lead to inaccurate prediction of turbine efficiency. In this study, the CFD analysis for Francis-99 Workshop model has been performed for full domain of machine including top and bottom labyrinth seals. The efficiency value and distribution of velocity and pressure have been investigated and compared to the experimental data obtained from NTNU. By comparing the results, it was found that: With the top and bottom labyrinth seals in the domain, the CFD result was significantly improved in prediction of efficiency at all the operating point, especially at part load.

The research described in this paper was aimed toward improving the understanding of the interaction of tire inflation pressure and the soil-tire interface stresses. A three-directional stress transducer was developed to measure stress distribution on undertread for a tractor tire. The transducer can directly measure three-directional stresses (normal stress, tangental stress and lateral stress and lateral stress) simultaneously and has both strong structure and high sensitivity, which is not changed by the abrasion of the detecting plate. Measurements of soil-undertread interface stresses were made at tire center on undertread on a 12.4-R24 radial tractor tire opeated at three combinations of a dynamic load (11.8kN) and three inflation pressures (59kPa, 108kPa and 157kPa). These measurements showed that as inflation pressure increased, the soil-undertread interface stresses increased. The results of three stresses comparisons were shown that the peak normal stresses were considerably higher than the tangential peak stresses and the peak lateral stresses.

The rollers of cylindrical roller bearing are axially profiled to relieve high edge stress concentration caused by mainly their finite length and by misalignment. In this paper, a numerical analysis is carried to study the EHL of misaligned (tilted) rollers with axially profiled ends. Using a finite difference method with non-uniform grids and the Newton-Raphson method, the highly nonlinear EHL problems are systematically solved. Physically consistent solutions are obtained for moderate load, material parameters and very small misalignment. For different misalignment angles, contours and sectional plots of pressure and film shape near both edge regions are compared. The asymmetric pressure distributions and film shapes show that the EHL results of finite line contacts are highly dependent upon very small amounts of roller misalignment. Especially, the effect of misalignment on the EHL pressure distribution is much higher than the film shapes.

A numerical procedure to analyze 3-dimensional elastohydrodynamic lubrication was applied on the cam-roller contact of the valve mechanism for a marine diesel engine. Both the pressure distribution and the film thickness between the cam and roller follower were calculated for each time step of the whole cycle. The pressure spike is shown at the outlet of the roller edge and it is getting higher as the external load is increased. An effective profiling method for the roller edge was suggested using the results of elastohydrodynamic lubrication analysis and the peak pressure was removed completely with the new profiling.

In this study, a numerical procedure to analyze 3-dimensional unsteady elastohydrodynamic lubrication was developed. The procedure was applied to the actual cam and roller follower of the valve mechanism for a marine diesel engine. The pressure distribution between the cam and roller follower was calculated for the several cam rotating angles. The pressure spike is shown near the roller edge and it is getting higher as the external load is increased. The roller profile for reducing the pressure spike was suggested by the Hertzian contact analysis.
