초록

RANS 기반의 CFD 해석은 계산 효율성이 높아 실무 수리해석을 포함한 다양한 공학 분야에서 널리 적용되고 있으나 자유수면과 같이 이상유체흐름 해석에서 비물리적인 거동이 나타나는 문제가 오랫동안 제기되어 왔다. 일반적인 RANS 기반의 해석에서 적용되는 2 방정식 난류 모형은 단상유체를 대상으로 개발되어 유체 밀도의 급격한 변화가 발생하는 이상유체에서는 경계면에서 실제와 다른 높은 난류 에너지 생성을 모의한다. 최근 이를 해결하기 위해 개발된 방법 중의 하나인 부력 수정 난류 모형은 해안 분야에 적용되어 일부 적합성이 검증되었으나 개수로 흐름에 적용된 사례는 없다. 본 연구에서는 오픈 소스 프로그램인 OpenFoam의 VOF 기법을 기반으로 부력 수정 난류 모형의 적용성을 평가하였다. 등류 흐름 적용 결과에 의하면 부력 수정 k-𝜖 모형과 부력 수정 k-ω SST 모형이 자유수면 부근에서의 난류 에너지 저감 현상을 잘 모의함을 확인하였으며, 특히 부력 수정 k-ω SST 모형은 연직 유속 분포를 잘 모의함을 확인하였다. 또한 댐 붕괴 흐름에 적용하여 수면형의 변동이 크고 공동이 형성되는 경우에 대해 검토하였다. 모의 결과 부력 수정 난류 모형은 VOF 기법에 따라 상이한 결과를 나타내며 실험결과와 다른 비물리적인 거동을 나타내었다. 부력 수정 난류 모형이 수면이 안정적인 형태인 경우에는 적용성이 있으나 자유 수면의 급격한 변화가 발생하는 경우에 범용적으로 적용하기에는 여전히 한계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 수면형이 급격하게 변화하거나 공동이 형성되는 흐름의 경우에는 난류 모형에 대한 적절한 보정이 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

RANS-based CFD analysis is widely applied in various engineering fields, including practical hydraulic engineering, due to its high computational efficiency. However, problems of non-physical behavior in the analysis of two phase flow, such as free surfaces, have long been raised. The two-equation turbulence models used in general RANS-based analysis were developed for single phase flow and simulate unrealistically high turbulence energy at the interface where there are abrupt changes in fluid density. To solve this issue, one of the methods recently developed is the buoyancy-modified turbulence model, which has been partially validated in coastal engineering, but has not been applied to open channel flows. In this study, the applicability of the buoyancy-modified turbulence model is evaluated using the VOF method in the open-source program OpenFoam. The results of the uniform flow showed that both the buoyancy-modified k-𝜖 model and the buoyancy-modified k-ω SST model effectively simulated the reduction of turbulence energy near the free surface. Specifically, the buoyancy-modified k-ω SST model accurately simulated the vertical velocity distribution. Additionally, the model is applied to dam-break flows to examine cases with significant surface variation and cavity formation. The simulation results show that the buoyancy-modified turbulence models produce varying results depending on the VOF method and shows non-physical behavior different from experimental results. While the buoyancy-modified turbulence model is applicable in cases with stable surface shapes, it still has limitations in general application when there are rapid changes in the free surface. It is concluded that appropriate adjustments to the turbulence model are necessary for flows with rapid surface changes or cavity formation.
