The losses at off-design points from a compressor cascade occur due to the deviation from a design incidence angle at the inlet of the cascade. The self-noise from the blade cascade at off-design points comes from a separated boundary layer and vortex sheddings. If the incidence angle to the cascade increases, stalling in blades may occur and the noise level increases significantly. This study applied Large-Eddy Simulations (LES) using deductive and deductive dynamic SGS models to low Mach-number, turbulent flow with each incidence angle to the cascade ranging from -40$^{\circ}$ to +20$^{\circ}$ and compared numerical predictions with measured data. It was observed that the oscillating separation bubbles attached to the suction surface do not modify wake flows dynamically for cases of negative incidence angles. However, an incidence angle greater than 8$^{\circ}$ caused a separated vortex near the leading edge to be shed downstream and created stalling. The computed performance parameters such as drag coefficient and total pressure loss coefficient showed good agreement with experimental results. Noise from the cascade of the compressor is summarized as sound generated by a structure interacting with unsteady, turbulent flows. The hybrid method using acoustic analogy was observed to closely predict the measured overall sound powers and directivity patterns at design and off-design points of blade cascade.

The effect of rotation on the unsteady laminar flaw past a circular cylinder is numerically investigated in the present study. The numerical solutions for the 2D Navier-Stokes equation obtained, using two different numerical methods. One is an accurate spectral method and the other is a finite volume method(FVM). First, the flaw around a stationary circular cylinder is investigated to understand the basic phenomenon of flaw separation and bluff body wake. Next, the flow characteristics of the laminar flow, past a rotating circular cylinder, are investigated, using a FVM developed in this study. By the effect of rotation, it is seen that values of lift increase, while the values of mean drag decrease. Further, the criteria of angular velocity, at which the Karman vorteces disappear, is also determined.

For most full-scale tall buildings the Reynolds number of a flow field around a circular cylinder under strong wind is usually greater than $2{\times}10^7$, which is difficult to achieve in most wind tunnel tests. To explore the wind characteristics of tall cylindrical buildings with equidirectional grooves from subcritical to transcritical flow ($6.6{\times}10^4{\leq}Re{\leq}3.3{\times}10^5$ and $9.9{\times}10^6{\leq}Re{\leq}7.2{\times}10^7$), wind tunnel tests and full-scale large eddy simulations were carried out. The results showed that the rectangular-grooves narrow the wake width due to the downstream movement of the separation point and the deeper grooves cause smaller mean and fluctuating pressure while the peak pressure is little affected. Furthermore, the grooves lead to lower frequency of vortex shedding but the Strouhal number remains at the range from 0.15 to 0.35. The drag coefficient of the cylinders with grooves was found to be 2~3 times as large as that of smooth cylinders.

Velocity fields of near turbulent was behind a porous wind fence were measured using the 2-frame PTV method in a circulating water channel. The fences used in this study had different geometric porosity(.epsilon.) of 0, 20, 40 and 65%. The fence was embedded in a thin laminar boundary layer, i.e., .delta./H ~ = 0.1. Reynolds number based on the fence height H and free stream velocity(U$\_$o/) was about 8,400. As a result, a recirculating flow region was formed behind the fence for the .epsilon.=0% and 20% wind fence. For the wind fences having porosity larger than .epsilon.=40%, it was difficult to see separation bubbles behind the fence. The .epsilon.=20% porous fence reveals the maximum velocity reduction, however, the turbulent intensity and Reynolds shear stress are much greater than those of .epsilon.=40% fence. Among the wind fence tested in this study, the porous wind fence of .epsilon.=40% porosity is the most effective for abating wind erosion.

본 연구에서는 부유식 플랫폼의 6자유도 방향으로의 주기 운동이 로터 공력 성능에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위해 부유식 해상 풍력터빈에 대한 공력 해석이 수행되었다. 수치 해석을 위해 블레이드 요소 운동량 방법을 이용하였으며, 유동 박리와 후류 영향에 의한 비정상 공력 효과를 포착하기 위해 인디셜 응답 방법에 기반한 동적 실속 모델을 이용하였다. 로터에 의해 유도되는 내리 흐름은 운동량 이론과 난류 후류 상태에 대한 경험적 모델을 연계하여 계산하였다. heave, sway, surge 방향으로의 병진 운동과 roll, pitch, yaw 방향으로의 회전 운동을 포함한 플랫폼 주기 운동을 고려하였으며, 각각의 모션은 사인함수 형태로 적용되었다. 수치해석을 위한 대상 풍력터빈으로는 NREL 5MW 풍력터빈이 사용되었다. 해석 결과로부터 세 방향 병진 운동 모드 중, surge 운동 시 로터 공력 변화가 상대적으로 크게 나타났으며, 회전 운동 모드의 경우, pitch 운동에 의해 로터 공력이 크게 변화됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

In the present study, the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations, together with the equations of the $k-{\varepsilon}$ model of turbulence, were solved numerically in a general body-fitted coordinate system for three-dimensional turbulent flows around the six basic shapes of the magnetically levitated train(MAGLEV). The numerical computations were conducted on the MAGLEV model configurations to provide information on shapes of this type very near the elevated track at a constant Reynolds number of $1.48{\times}10^{6}$ based on the body length. The coordinate system was generated by numerically solving a set of Poisson equations. The convective transport equations were discretized using the finite-analytic scheme which employed analytic solutions of the locally-linearized equations. A time marching algorithm was employed to enable future extensions to be made to handle unsteady and fully-elliptic problems. The pressure-velocity coupling was treated with the SIMPLER-algorithm. Of particular interests were wall effect by the elevated track on the aerodynamic forces and flow characteristics of the six models calculated. The results indicated that the half-circle configuration with extended sides and with smooth curvature of sides was desirable because of the low aerodynamic forces and pitching moment. And it was found that the separation bubble was occured at wake region in near the elevated track.

본 연구에서는 3차원 대칭형 날개의 정상/비정상상대에서의 공기력 특성을 Vortex 패널법을 이용하여 수치적으로 연구했다. 이 프로그램은 날개 표면에 분포된 x, y 방향에 따라 선형적으로 변화는 와(Vortex)를 이용하는 프로그램을 기반으로 하여 3차원 날개 주위의 비압축성 포텐셜 흐름에 적용하였고 박리와 후류의 변형은 고려하지 않았다. NACA Airfoil 자료와 비교한 계산결과는 매우 만족스러운 일치를 보여주었다. 또한 갑작스러운 pitch-up운동과 일정한 각속도로 피칭운동을 하는 비정상 날개에 대해서도 본 방법을 적용하였다. 비정상 상태의 연구에서는 출발와류의 생성과 시간에 따른 위치를 고려함으로서 출발와류가 날개의 공기력 특성에 미치는 영향을 계산하였다. 본 방법은 피칭이나 플래핑, 회전익 해석등의 더 복잡한 경우에도 적용되어질 수 있다.

The horn and movable parts around the gap of the conventional semi-spade rudder are visualized by high speed CCD camera with the frame rate of 4000 fps (frame per second) to study the unsteady cavity pattern on the rudder surface and gap. In addition, the pressure measurements are conducted on the rudder surface and inside the gap to find out the characteristics of the flow behavior. The rudder without propeller wake is tested at the range of $1.0{\leq}{\sigma}_v\;1.6$ and at the rudder deflection angle of $-8{\leq}{\theta}{\leq}10^{\circ}$. The time resolved cavity images are captured and show strong cavitation around the rudder gap in all deflection angles. As the deflection angle gets larger, the flow separated from the horn surface increases the strength of cavitation. The accelerated flow along the horn decreases its pressure and the separated flow from the horn increases the pressure abruptly. The pressure distribution inside the gap reveals the flow moving from the pressure to suction side. In the negative deflection angle, the turning area on the movable part initiates the flow separation and cavitation on it.

원통 모델에 공기저항저감 효과를 검증하기 위해서 원통형에 적합한 유연성 플라즈마 구동기를 제작하였다. 다양한 풍속에서 플라즈마 유동제어 풍동시험을 수행하였으며, CFD 해석과 유동가시화를 수행하였다. 풍속이 느린 저속 구간에서는 유동박리가 발생하지 않아 플라즈마 유동제어 효과가 없었다. 풍속 14 m/s 에서 14% 정도 항력이 저감되었으며, 풍속이 증가된 17 m/s 의 경우 항력이 27% 저감되었다. CFD 해석과 유동가시화의 비교를 통해 DBD플라즈마 구동기는 원통 주변의 압력차를 감소시켜 와류의 크기가 줄어든 것으로 확인되었다.

The flow around a circular cylinder was controlled by an acoustic excitation issued from a thin slit along the cylinder axis. The static pressure distributions around the cylinder wall and flow characteristics in the near wake have been measured. Experiments were performed under three cases of Reynolds number, 7.8 * 10$\^$4/, 2.3 * 10$\^$5/ and 3.8 * 10$\^$5/. The effects of excitation frequency, sound pressure level and the location of the slit were examined. Data indicate that the excitation frequency and the slit location are the key parameters for controlling the separated flow. At Re$\_$d/, = 7.8 * 10$\^$4/, the drag is reduced and the lift is generated to upward direction, however, at Re$\_$d/, =2.3 * 10$\^$5/ and 3.8 * 10$\_$5/, the drag is increased and lift is generated to downward direction inversely. It is thought that the lift switching phenomenon is due to the different separation point of upper surface and lower surface on circular cylinder with respect to the flow regime which depends on the Reynolds number. Vortex shedding frequencies are different at upper side and lower side. Time-averaged velocity field shows that mean velocity vector and the points of maximum intensities are inclined to downward direction at Re$\_$d/ = 7.8 * 10$\^$4/, but are inclined to upward direction at Re$\_$d/ = 2.3 * 10$\^$5/.
