A corona discharge system with needle point or wire type corona electrode has been well used as an ionic wind blower. The corona discharge system with a needle point electrode produces ions at lower applied voltage effectively. However, the corona discharge on the needle point electrode transits to the arc discharge at lower voltage, and it is hard to obtain the elevated electric field in the discharge airgap for enhancing the ion migration velocity due to the weak Coulomb force. A cylindrical corona electrode with sharp round tip is reported as one of effective corona electrode, because of its higher breakdown voltage than that of the needle electrode. A basic study, for the effectiveness of cylindrical electrode shape on the ionic wind generation, has been investigated to obtain an maximum wind velocity, which however is the final goal for the real field application of this kind ionic wind blower. In this paper, a parametric study for maximizing the ionic wind velocity utilizing the cylindrical corona electrode and a maximum ion wind velocity of 4.1 m/s were obtained, which is about 1.8 times higher than that of 2.3m/s obtained with the needle corona electrode from the velocity profile.

The present study considers the prediction of wind-induced heel of cruise ship and its stabilization. Wind load in ocean exerts on the surface of superstructure of cruise ship, which causes the heel moment on the ship. The calculation of wind load starts from choosing wind speed profile, so that the logarithmic wind profile model is applied in this study. Heel moment by wind load is calculated by adopting approximate formulation and applied to the ship motion analysis in time domain. Motion stabilizers, such as stabilizing fin and U-tube tank, are considered to reduce the heel effect as well as excessive roll motion. From this study, it is expected that the present method can be applied to the prediction and stabilization of the heel motion of cruise ships.

지면위의 풍속의 변화를 높이별 풍속변화(wind shear)아고 한다. 풍력자원 평가 분야에서 전통적으로 이런 높이별 풍속 변화특성을 수학적으로 두 가지 방법으로 분석한다. 이를 대수법칙(Lograthmic law)과 멱법칙(Power law)이라 한다. 대수법칙은 표면 거칠기를 파라미터로 멱법칙의 경우 멱지수를 파라미터로 사용한다. 높이별 풍속변화는 여러 가지 인자에 의하여 영항을 받는다. 대부분은 대기의 안정도와 주변의 지형에 의한 거칠기에 현저한 영향을 받는다. 대기안정도는 계절적, 하루의 시간 변화나 기상학적 변화에 의한 영항을 받는다. 표면의 거칠기와 멱지수 역시 시간의 변화에 따라 변화하는 경향을 보인다. 본 연구에서는 제주 평대와 한동 지역의 풍황 관측데이터를 이용하여 메트랩과 windograper를 이용하여 조도 길이와 멱지수를 계산 하였다. 이 결과는 참조데이터들과 유사한 결과를 보이긴 했지만 범위는 차이를 보이고 있었다. 선행 연구와 비교한 결과 해양의 경우 비슷한 결과를 보였지만 농작지의 경우 보다 높은 범위를 농촌마을이 경우 보다 낮은 범위를 보이고 있었다.

Chemical application, one of the most important crop management processes happened to cause spray drift, that would threaten farmers in field as well as dwellers in rural region. Spray drift was affected by micro-meteorological parameters. A study to evaluate short distance drift characteristics of a boom sprayer in paddy fields has been undergoing. This study is the first step of the research. Main purpose of the was conducted to develop a mean wind profile and to get information on turbulence intensities above and within rice canopy. Wind in rice paddy field were measured at every 10cm from 10 to 180cm above the ground using a 2-dimensional probe and a hot wire anemometer system. Main results were summarized as follows. 1. Mean wind profile was modeled as; Equations. see full-text 2. Roughness length and zero-displacement in rice canopy were analyzed to be respectively 0.04 and 0.7∼0.72 times of the canopy height. The values are smaller comparing to those of other crops because rice canopy is flexible and uniform comparing to other crops. 3. Turbulence intensities (Tl) was greater as close to the ground and became constant at heights greater than 1.5Hc. where Tl’s were 0.4 and 0.15 in horizontal and vertical direction respectively.

The topography and geomorphology are complex and changeable in western China, so the railway transition section is common. To investigate the aerodynamic effect of the subgrade-tunnel transition section, including a cutting-tunnel transition section, an embankment-tunnel transition section and two typical scenarios for rail infrastructures, is selected as research objects. In this paper, models of standard cutting, embankment and CRH2 high-speed train with the scale of 1:20 were established in wind tunnel tests. The wind speed profiles above the railway and the aerodynamic forces of the vehicles at different positions along the railway were measured by using Cobra probe and dynamometric balance respectively. The test results show: The influence range of cutting-tunnel transition section is larger than that of the embankment-tunnel transition section, and the maximum impact height exceeds 320mm (corresponding to 6.4m in full scale). The wind speed profile at the railway junction is greatly affected by the tunnel. Under the condition of the double track, the side force coefficient on the leeward side is negative. For embankment-tunnel transition section, the lift force coefficient of the vehicle is positive which is unsafe for operation when the vehicle is at the railway line junction.

In this paper, wind load on a semi-submersible rig was investigated using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). A maritime atmospheric boundary layer model for wind profile was implemented such that the wind profile shapes were retained throughout the computational domain. Wind load on the semi-submersible rig was calculated under the maritime atmospheric boundary layer and matched well with the results from wind tunnel test within a ±20% error. Overturning moments with variation of draft were investigated by decomposing into drag and lift components. It was observed that the contribution from lift to the overturning moments increased as the draft got higher. The majority of the lift components originated from deckbox which served as a lifting body due to the accelerated streamlines between waterline and the bottom of the deckbox.

This paper reports a method to modify the gear tooth profile of a wind turbine gearbox to reduce the noise caused by the impact of the gear teeth. The major causes of tooth impact are the elastic deformation of the gear teeth, shafts, and case of the gearbox under loading, and the fabrication tolerances in gear manufacturing. In this study, the tooth profile was modified considering the elastic deformation of the gear tooth and the tooth lead modification to compensate for tooth interference in the lead direction as a result of shaft deformations. The method was applied to the gearbox of a 2.5MW wind turbine, and the transmission error was characterized before and after modifying the gear teeth. For the modified gear teeth, the transmission error (67.6%) was lower by 17.8%. Additionally, the gear contact stress was reduced by 6.3%, to 22.3%.

윈드프로파일러와 윈드라이다는 대기경계층에서 시공간 고해상도 바람의 연직분포를 산출한다. 윈드라이다는 DBS(Doppler Beam Swinging)와 VAD(Velocity Azimuth Display) 방법으로 바람 벡터를 산출한다. DBS 방법은 빠른 스캔 시간으로 바람 프로파일을 획득할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 반면에 연직 빔을 포함한 최소한 두 빔이 필요한 제약이 있어서 자료 수집률 저하의 원인이 된다. 일반적으로 다섯 빔을 사용하는 윈드프로파일러의 자료 수집률을 향상하기 위해 VAD 방식을 개선하였다. 먼저 DBS 방식의 시선속도 자료로 Fourier series를 산출하였다. 방위각 간격을 결정하여 Fourier series로 계산한 시선속도를 VAD 방식에 적용하여 고도별 바람을 산출하였다. DBS 방식으로 바람을 산출하지 못한 고도에서도 바람 벡터를 산출하였고, 두 방식의 결과가 일치하였다.

Aiming at the problem of non-stationary wind field simulation of downbursts, a non-stationary down-burst generation system was designed by adding a nozzle and program control valve to the inlet of the original wall jet model. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method was used to simulate the downburst. Firstly, the two-dimensional (2D) model was used to study the outflow situation, and the database of working conditions was formed. Then the combined superposition of working conditions was carried out to simulate the full-scale measured downburst. The three-dimensional (3D) large eddy simulation (LES) was used for further verification based on this superposition condition. Finally, the wind tunnel test is used to further verify. The results show that after the valve is opened, the wind ve-locity at low altitude increases rapidly, then stays stable, and the wind velocity at each point fluctuates. The velocity of the 2D model matches the wind velocity trend of the measured downburst well. The 3D model matches the measured downburst flow in terms of wind velocity and pulsation characteris-tics. The time-varying mean wind velocity of the wind tunnel test is in better agreement with the meas-ured time-varying mean wind velocity of the downburst. The power spectrum of fluctuating wind ve-locity at different vertical heights for the test condition also agrees well with the von Karman spectrum, and conforms to the "-5/3" law. The vertical profile of the maximum time-varying average wind veloci-ty obtained from the test shows the basic characteristics of the typical wind profile of the downburst. The effectiveness of the downburst generation system is verified.
