An experimental study of decaying swirl air flow has been obtained by tangential inlet in a straight tube with Reynolds number range 20,000~40,000. The friction factor, swirl angle, velocity profiles and turbulent intensity are measured by using micro-manometer and hot-wire anemometer. It is found that the swirl flow behaviors depend on the swirl intensity along the test tube.

Air drying technology was developed as an equipment for reducing of moisture content from wastewater treatment and waterworks sludge cake and reproducing it by reusable matter. Advantage of cyclone type pneumatic dehydrator is simple and excellent drying performance. The air drying equipment was composed to the air ejector which made high-speed fluid field, and cyclone which made circling fluid field. Dewatered cake was crushed at the high-speed zone as first step, and formed with dried powder of sphere shape by the collision between particles at the circling fluid zone. In this study, a CFD analysis has been performed to predict air-sludge particles flow in cyclone and ejector of pneumatic dehydrator. The computational results showed typical Rankine vortex structure which was frequently found in swirling flow phenomena. And the conical type wedge in lower part of a cyclone prevented accumulation of the sludge particles in the cyclone. Therefore, this technology was effective in drying of dehydrated cake of waterworks sludge.

An experimental investigation was conducted to study the characteristics of turbulent swirling flow in an axisymmetric annuli. The swirl angle measurements were performed using a flow visualization technique using smoke and dye liquid for Re=60,000-80,000. Using the two-dimensional Particle Image Velocimetry method, this study found the time-mean velocity distribution and turbulence intensity in water with swirl for Re=20,000, 30,000, and 40,000 along longitudinal sections. There were neutral points for equal axial velocity at y/(R-r)=0.7-0.75, and the highest axial velocity was recorded near y/(R-r)=0.9. Negative axial velocity was observed near the convex tube along X/(D-d)=3.0-18.0 for Re=20,000.

Our previous experimental and numerical investigations of decelerated swirling flows in conical diffusers have demonstrated that water jet injection along the symmetry axis mitigates the pressure fluctuations associated with the precessing vortex rope. However, for swirling flows similar to Francis turbines operated at partial discharge, the jet becomes effective when the jet discharge is larger than 10% from the turbine discharge, leading to large volumetric losses when the jet is supplied from upstream the runner. As a result, we introduce the flow-feedback approach for supplying the jet by using a fraction of the discharge collected downstream the conical diffuser. Experimental investigations on mitigating the pressure fluctuations generated by the precessing vortex rope and investigations of pressure recovery coefficient on the cone wall with and without flow-feedback method are presented.

An experimental study was performed to investigate heat transfer characteristics of turbulent swirling flow in an axisymmetric annuli. The static pressure, the local flow temperature, and the wall temperature with decaying swirl were measured by using tangential inlet conditions and the friction factor and the local Nusselt number were calculated for Re=30000∼70000. The local Nusselt number was compared with that obtained from the Dittus-Boelter equation with swirl and without swirl. The results showed that the swirl enhances the heat transfer at the inlet and the outlet of the test tube.

A computer program was developed to predict swirling steady axisymmetric turbulent flows by extending TEACH Code. It was applied to a reciprocating engine cylinder with a intake valve on the flat head. Flows were assumed to be steady and swirling. Effects of Reynolds number, the valve lift, and the swirl ratio on flow patterns and turbulence were investigated numerically. Flow patterns were reasonably predicted in comparison with experimental results. Length of the recirculation zone was shortened with increasing valve lifts and swirl ratios. Static pressure distributions show maximum value near the reattachment point of the incoming circular jet and minimum value near the maximum width of the valve attached recirculation zone.

이 연구는 Gun식 가스버너의 스월유동장을 연소실과 화염이 없는 상태에서 직선형 5공압력프로브의 측정을 통해 고찰하였다. 직선형 5공압력프로브에 의한 속도 및 정압성분들은 넌널링 교정방법에 의해 연산하였으며, X형 열선프로브와 전산유체역학의 해석에 의한 결과들과 비교하였다. 결과적으로 Gun식 가스버너의 중심부에서 스월유동장에 대해 5공압력프로브에 의한 속도 및 정압의 측정값들은 비교적 X형 열선프로브에 의한 경우보다는 좋은 성능을 보였으나 전산유체역학의 해석에 의한 경우보다는 다소 미흡한 결과를 보였다.

선회분류층형 석탄가스화기내의 비반응 난류선회 유동장을 수치해석 기법을 이용하여 해석하였다. 우선 2차원해석과 3차원 해석과의 비교를 통하여 2차원화 가정의 주요변수인 등가틈새(equivalent slit)의 개념이 적절하며, 동시에 2차원 해석결과의 타당성을 입증하였다. 선회분류층형 가스화기내에서 가장 중요한 무차원수인 선회수의 변화에 따른 유동장의 특성변화를 주로 고찰하였다. 또한 유동장의 이론적인 선회수 및 등가틈새너비를 입력으로 이용한 전산해석을 수행하여. 미분탄반응이 존재할 경우의 유동장의 특성을 예측하여 보았다. 버너출구단면적의 크기 및 위치를 적절히 조절함으로써, 가스화기 내부에 미분탄반응에 적절한 유동장을 형성시킬 수 있음을 발견하였다.

The stirred tank reactor is one of the most commonly used devices in industry for achieving mixing and reaction. Here we report on results obtained from the large eddy simulations of flow inside the tank performed using a spectral multi-domain technique. The computations were driven by specifying the impeller-induced flow at the blade tip radius. Stereoscopic PIV measurements (Hill et $al.^{(1)}$) along with the theoretical model of the impeller-induced flow (Yoon et $al.^{(2)}$) were used in defining the impeller-induced flow as superposition of circumferential, jet and tip vortex pair components. Large eddy simulation of flow in a stirred tank was carried out for the three different Reynolds numbers of 4000, 16000 and 64000. The effect of different Reynolds numbers is well observed in both instantaneous and time averaged flow fields. The instantaneous and mean vortex structures are identified by plotting an isosurfaces of swirling strength for all Reynolds numbers. The Reynolds number dependency of the nondimeansional eddy viscosity, resolve scale and subgrid scale dissipations is clearly shown in this study.
