Varieties of research on turbulent-induced noise is conducted with combinations of acoustic analogy methods and computational fluid dynamic methods to analyze efficiently and accurately. Application of FW-H acoustic analogy without turbulent noise is the most popular method due to its calculation cost. In this paper, turbulent-induced noise is predicted using RANS turbulence model and permeable FW-H method. For simplicity, noise from 2D cylinder is examined using three different methods, direct method of RANS, FW-H method without turbulent noise and permeable FW-H method which can take into account of turbulent-induced noise. Turbulent noise was well predicted using permeable FW-H method with same computational cost of original FW-H method. Also, ability of permeable FW-H method to predict highly accurate turbulent-induced noise by applying adequate permeable surface is presented. The procedure to predict turbulent-induced noise using permeable FW-H is established and its usability is shown.

Underwater noise radiated from submarines is directly related to the probability of being detected by the sonar of an enemy vessel. Therefore, minimizing the noise of a submarine is essential for improving survival outcomes. For modern submarines, as the speed and size of a submarine increase and noise reduction technology is developed, interest in flow noise around the hull has been increasing. In this study, a noise analysis technique was developed to predict flow noise generated around a submarine shape considering the free surface effect. When a submarine is operated near a free surface, turbulence-induced noise due to the turbulence of the flow and bubble noise from breaking waves arise. First, to analyze the flow around a submarine, VOF-based incompressible two-phase flow analysis was performed to derive flow field data and the shape of the free surface around the submarine. Turbulence-induced noise was analyzed by applying permeable FW-H, which is an acoustic analogy technique. Bubble noise was derived through a noise model for breaking waves based on the turbulent kinetic energy distribution results obtained from the CFD results. The analysis method developed was verified by comparison with experimental results for a submarine model measured in a Large Cavitation Tunnel (LCT).

Turbulent boundary layer over an underwater vehicle is formed when it moves underwater and wall pressure fluctuation within the turbulent boundary layer generates flow-induced noise by exciting the elastic hull of the underwater vehicle. One of the methods to reduce this flow noise is to attach a compliant layer on the surface of the vehicle. In order to observe the possibility of noise reduction in the water when the compliant layer treatments are applied on the surface, three types of specimens those are a bare steel plate, a steel plate coated with neoprene and a steel plate with polyurethane coating material are tested at various flow speeds in a low noise cavitation tunnel. This paper presents the results of measurements and analysis of wall pressure fluctuations which is a main source of flow noise, within the turbulent boundary layer on three specimens. Its results could be shown that about 10dB reduction of wall fluctuation pressure at high frequencies was achieved due to the dissipation of turbulent energy by the compliant coating while it makes the turbulent boundary layer thicker and changes the behavior of turbulent flow in the layer.

과거 유체 유발 진동(FIV : Fluid Induced Vibration)은 배관계 설계 하중에 고려되지 않은 설계 하중이었다. 하지만, 원자력 발전소 또는 화력 발전소의 배관형상이 복잡하고 고온수가 배관 내부에서 유동하는 배관계에서 육안으로 관측이 가능한 배관진동이 발생하였다. 이에 배관 진동에 대하여 원인 분석과 배관 구조 건전성 평가에 관심을 가지게 되었다. 배관 진동은 배관 형상에 따라 배관 내부 난류 유동에 대한 압력 변동이 하나의 원인이며, 고온수가 유동하는 배관일수록 압력 변동에 대한 배관 진동이 크게 나타나는 것으로 분석되었다. 배관 내부 난류 유동에 대한 압력 변동을 불규칙 수력하중이라고 한다. 본 연구에서는 배관 내부에서 난류 유동으로 발생하는 불규칙 수력하중을 유동해석을 이용하여 PSD(Power Spectral Density)로 산출하고, PSD 하중을 이용하여 불규칙 구조 응답 해석을 수행하여 배관계 응력 분포에 대하여 연구하였다. 배관 내부 난류 유동에 대한 불규칙 수력하중은 DES 난류 모델을 사용하여 시간에 대한 배관 내부 표면의 유체 속도를 유동 해석으로 산출하였으며, 유체 속도를 동압으로 계산한 후 FFT(Fast Fourier Transform)를 수행하여 PSD 하중으로 산출하였다. 그리고 불규칙 구조 응답 해석에서 배관 내부 유체 영향에 대한 진동 감쇠를 표현하기 위하여 유체 질량을 산출하고, 배관 구조 해석 모델 표면에 질량을 입력하는 방법으로 배관 고유진동수 및 불규칙 구조 응답 해석을 수행하였다.

A simple but efficient grid generation technique by using the modified compressible form of stream function has been formulated. Transformation of a physical plane to a streamline plane, the Von Mises Transformation, has been widely used to solve the differential equations governing flow phenomena, however, limitation arises in low velocity region of boundary layer, mixing layer and wake region where the relatively large grid spacing is inevitable. Modified Von Mises Transformation with simple mathematical adjustment for the stream function is suggested and applied to solve the confined coaxial turbulent jet mixing with simple $\kappa-\epsilon$ turbulence model. Comparison with several experimental data of axial mean velocity, turbulent kinetic energy, and Reynolds shear stress distribution shows quite good agreement in the mixing layer except in the centerline where the turbulent kinetic energy distributions were somewhat under estimated. This formulation is strongly suggested to be utilized specially for free turbulent mixing layers in axisymmetric flow conditions such as the investigation of mixing behavior, jet noise production and reduction for Turbofan engines.

Recently, a lot of studies have been made about the methods used to generate turbulent velocity fields stochastically in order to effectively predict broadband flow noise. Among them, the FRPM (Fast Random Particle Mesh) method which generates turbulence with specific statistical properties using turbulence kinetic energy and dissipation obtained from the steady solution of the RANS (Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes) equations has been successfully applied. However, the FRPM method cannot be applied to the flow noise problems involving intrinsic unsteady characteristics such as centrifugal fan. In this paper, to effectively predict the broadband noise generated by centrifugal fan, U-FRPM (unsteady FRPM) method is developed by extending the FRPM method to be combined with the unsteady numerical solutions of the unsteady RANS equations to generate the turbulence considered as broadband noise sources. Firstly, an unsteady flow field is obtained from the unsteady RANS equations through CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics). Then, noise sources are generated using the U-FRPM method combined with acoustic analogy. Finally, the linear propagation model which is realized through BEM (Boundary Element Method) is combined with the generated sources to predict broadband noise at the listeners' position. The proposed technique is validated to compare its prediction result with the measured data.

로켓 엔진은 고속의 고온 고압 제트가 분출함으로 인해 현존하는 소음 소스 수준 중 가장 큰 소음을 발생시킨다. 로켓 엔진에서 생기는 소음은 충격소음과 유동소음으로 구분할 수 있다. 충격소음은 연소제트의 불완전 팽창으로 인한 shock cell의 영향으로 shock wave가 발생하게 되어 고속의 제트가 대기와 충동함으로 인해 형성되는 충격파로 인해 발생되는 소음이며 유동소음은 mixing의 초기부분에서 초음속의 High velocity gas가 주변대기와 부딪히면서 생기는 난류와 전단력 때문에 발생하는 압력의 요동이 그 원인이 되어 고주파 소음의 특성을 띤 작은 eddy들에 의해 발생하는 소음이다.

유동이 있는 경우 발생하는 소음에 대한 실험적 연구는 풍동과 무향실이 결합된 음향풍동에서 수행될 수 있다. 이러한 음향풍동은 팬, 수축부, 수집부, 확산부 그리고 무향실에 주의해서 설계되어야 하고 특히 각 부분에서 발생할 수 있는 이차소음을 최소화하도록 설계되어야 한다. 최종적으로 소음기와 흡음재를 이용해서 팬소음과 이차소음의 전파를 줄인다. 본 음향풍동은 개방형 흡입식(open suction type)으로 시험부에서 유속 62.8m/s, 난류강도 0.1%이하, 배경소음 50-55dB 이하로 설계되었다. 이러한 조건을 만족시키기 위하여 하니콤과 6장의 스크린이 있는 정체실과, 21:1의 수축비를 갖는 수축부를 이용하여 난류강도를 낮추고, 흡음재와 90도 각도의 모서리 그리고 공명형과 소산형 소음기로 소음의 전파를 줄였다.
