This study examines the accuracy of large-eddy simulation (LES) to simulate the flow around a large irregular sloping complex terrain. Typically, real built up environments are surrounded by complex terrain geometries with many features. The complex terrain surrounding The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology campus was modelled and the flow over an uphill slope was simulated. The simulated results, including mean velocity profiles and turbulence intensities, were compared with the flow characteristics measured in a wind tunnel model test. Given the size of the domain and the corresponding constraints on the resolution of the simulation, the mean velocity components within the boundary layer flow, especially in the stream-wise direction were found to be reasonably well replicated by the LES. The turbulence intensity values were found to differ from the wind tunnel results in the building recirculation zones, mostly due to the constraints placed on spatial and temporal resolutions. Based on the validated mean velocity profile results, the flow-structure interactions around these buildings and the surrounding terrain were examined.

Geostationary Ocean Colour Imager (GOCI) is the first ocean color instrument that will be operating in a geostationary orbit from 2010. GOCI will provide the crucial information of ocean environment around the Korean peninsula in high spatial and temporal resolutions at eight visible bands. We report an on-going development of imaging and radiometric performance prediction model for GOCI with realistic data for reflectance, transmittance, absorption, wave-front error and scattering properties for its optical elements. For performance simulation, Monte Carlo based ray tracing technique was used along the optical path starting from the Sun to the final detector plane for a fixed solar zenith angle. This was then followed by simulation of red-tide evolution detection and their radiance estimation, following the in-orbit operational sequence. The simulation results proves the GOCI flight model is capable of detecting both image and radiance originated from the key ocean phenomena including red tide. The model details and computational process are discussed with implications to other earth observation instruments.

준 2차원 수치적 모델을 사용하여 침-평판(point-plane)형의 전극 사이에 있는 중간 압력 질소의 방전에 대한 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 이 모델에서는 전자와 이온에 대한 연속방정식을 풀어 시. 공간적으로 변하는 전하분포를 계산하고, 공간 전하 분포의 변화에 따라 결정되는 전기장은 푸아송 방정식을 풀어 얻는다. 연속 방정식은 FCT (Flux-corrected transport) 알고리즘과 FEM (Finite Element Method) 방법을 적용하여 수치적으로 다루어 졌다. 50Torr 압력에서의 질소 방전에 대한 시뮬레이션 결과는 중간 압력 질소 방전의 물리적 특성에 관한 상세한 이해를 제공한다. 또 계산 결과와 실험 결과[1]와의 비교는 정성적으로 잘 일치하는 것을 보여 준다.

The effect of coupled data assimilation (DA) on the meteorological prediction in the west coastal region of Korea was evaluated using a coupled atmosphere-ocean model (e.g., COAWST) in the spring (March 17-26) of 2019. We performed two sets of simulation experiments: (1) with the coupled DA (i.e., COAWST_DA) and (2) without the coupled DA (i.e., COAWST_BASE). Overall, compared with the COAWST_BASE simulation, the COAWST_DA simulation showed good agreement in the spatial and temporal variations of meteorological variables (sea surface temperature, air temperature, wind speed, and relative humidity) with those of the observations. In particular, the effect of the coupled DA on wind speed was greatly improved. This might be primarily due to the prediction improvement of the sea surface temperature resulting from the coupled DA in the study area. In addition, the improvement of meteorological prediction in COAWST_DA simulation was also confirmed by the comparative analysis between SST and other meteorological variables (sea surface wind speed and pressure variation).

이 연구의 목적은 다중 시기 원격탐사 자료로부터 추출한 수륙경계선을 이용하여 제작된 간석지 수치표고모델(DEM)에 포함된 오차의 공간 분포 분석 및 침수 취약성 추정에 있다. 오차의 전역적인 통계값만을 제시했던 기존 연구와 달리, 이 연구에서는 지구통계학적 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 확률론적 관점에서 오차의 공간 분포를 정량적으로 해석하였다. 바람아래 간석지를 대상으로 2010년대 다중 시기 Landsat 자료로부터 추출된 수륙경계선과 보정 조위값을 이용하여 초기 DEM을 생성하였다. 현장 고도 측정 자료와 비교하였을 때, 생성된 DEM은 대체로 실제 고도를 저추정하는 것으로 나타났으며, 지역적인 차이가 나타났다. 이후 오차의 공간 자기상관성 정보를 기반으로 순차적 가우시안 시뮬레이션을 적용하여 다량의 대안적 오차 공간 분포도를 작성하였다. 이 오차 공간 분포도를 이용하여 오차가 보정된 대안적 DEM을 생성한 후에, IPCC SERS 해수면 상승 시나리오에 따른 침수 취약성의 확률 분포도를 제작하였다. 지구통계학적 시뮬레이션 기반 오차분석 방법론은 오차 추정의 불확실성 및 오차 전파 문제를 확률론적으로 표현할 수 있다. 따라서 이 연구에서 적용한 오차 분석 방법론은 수륙경계선 기반 간석지 DEM의 오차 추정뿐만 아니라, 다양한 분야의 주제도에 포함된 오차의 확률론적 평가에 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Direct Numerical Simulation was carried out to predict mass transfer in turbulent flow around a rotating stepped cylinder. This investigation is a follow-up study of Nesic et al. [Corrosion, Vol. 56, No. 10, pp. 1005 - 1014] The original motivation of this work stemmed from the efforts to design a simple device which can generate flows of high turbulence intensity at low cost for corrosion researchers. Two cases were considered; Sc=1 and 10 both at Re=335. Here, Sc and Re stand for Schmidt number and Reynolds number, respectively, based on the step height and the surface speed of the cylinder upstream the step. Main focus was placed on the correlation between turbulent fluctuation and concentration field. The spatio-temporal evolution of concentration field is discussed. The numerical results are qualitatively compared with those of the experiment conducted with the same flow configuration.

In the present study, a numerical simulation for the diffusion of hydrogen leakage of FCV(Fuel Cell Vehicle) in a tunnel was performed to aid the assessment of risk in case of leakage accident. The temporal and spatial distributions of the hydrogen concentration around FCV are predicted from the present numerical analyses. Flammable region of 4-74% and explosive region of 18-59% hydrogen by volume was identified from the present results. Factors influencing the diffusion of the hydrogen jet were examined to evaluate the effectiveness of tunnel ventilation system for relieving the accumulation of the leaked hydrogen gas. The distribution of the concentration of the leaked hydrogen for various cases can be used as a database in various applications for the hydrogen safety.

In this study, numerical simulations are carried out to investigate the dynamic SGS model effects in a Kerosene-LOx coaxial swirl injector under high pressure conditions. The turbulent model is based on large-eddy simulation (LES) with real-fluid transport and thermodynamics. To assess the effect of the dynamic subgrid-scale (SGS) model, the dynamic SGS model is compared with that of the algebraic SGS model. In a swirl injector under supercritical pressure, the characteristics of temporal pressure fluctuation and power spectral density (PSD) present comparable discrepancies dependant on the SGS models, which affect the mixing characteristics. Mixing efficiency and the probability density (PDF) function are conducted for a statistical description of the turbulent flow fields according to the SGS models. The back-scattering of turbulent kinetic energy is estimated in terms of the film thickness of the swirl injector.

In general, long-term changes of ecological factors take a pulse form in which they interact with other factors and go through a repeated increasing and decreasing cycle. The coupling of the two approaches the grid model and the box model in ecological modeling can lead to an in-depth understanding of the environment. The study analyzes temporal variations of major storages with an energy system model that formulizes effectively the relationships among nutrients, phytoplankton, and zooplankton in the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea. An increase of light intensity and standing stock of nutrient increase the magnitude and frequency of pulsing. Also, an immense reduction of nutrient concentration can cause extinction of the pulsing and bring about a steady state. It is concluded that the nutrient loads in freshwater discharge from the Yangtze affect the cycles of major ecological components as well as water quality variables and play an important role in the marine ecosystem.
