The main purpose of this study is to investigate the affect of various turbulence properties on aerodynamic characteristics of twin box bridge section. To achieve this goal, active turbulence generator which successfully simulated various target turbulences was developed in the wind tunnel. From the wind tunnel tests, turbulence integral length scale did not affect on the aerodynamic forces and flutter derivatives except for the $A_1^*$ curve. Turbulence intensity gave slight effect on the unsteady aerodynamic force, but turbulence integral length scale did not affect the self-excited forces except vertical direction component.

This study presents the aerodynamic admittance function of bridge girder under turbulent flow generated from wind velocity spectrum measured at bridge site. Three dimensional buffeting analysis of concrete cable-stayed bridge were performed considering aerodynamic admittance functions obtained from four different methods. It is revealed from the analysis that vertical buffeting responses considering proper aerodynamic admittance functions were just half of that neglecting aerodynamic admittance function. Grid turbulence was found to relatively lower the aerodynamic admittance function at low frequency range, and to underestimate the buffeting wind forces. It is recommended to use the aerodynamic admittance function evaluated from flutter derivatives or measured at active turbulence in order to properly predict the buffeting responses of bridges.

In the present paper, approximate coordinate transformations for simulation of turbulent flows with active wall motions, leading to a significant reduction in the computational cost while maintaining the numerical accuracy, are presented: the Navier-Stokes equations are coordinate-transformed with an approximation of Taylor-series truncation and neglect of some less-significant terms. The performance of the proposed transformations is evaluated in simulation of the channel flow at Re$\sub$$\tau$/=140 with wall deformations of │η$\sub$m/$\^$+/ 5. The approximate transformations provide flow structures as wall as turbulence statistics in good agreement with those from a complete coordinate transformation [Phys. Fluids 12, 3301 (2000)] and allow 25-30% savings in the CPU time as compared to the complete one.

Oscillating heat release associated with periodic vortex-flame interaction was investigated experimentally. Turbulent jet flames were stabilized with recirculating hot products in a dump combustor, and large-scale periodic vortices were imposed into the jet flame by acoustic forcing. Forcing frequencies and operating parameters were adjusted to simulate unstable combustor operation in practical combustors. The objectives were to characterize vortex-heat release interaction that leads to unwanted heat release fluctuations and to identify the proper fuel injection pattern that could be used for actively suppressing such fluctuations. Phase-resolved CH* chemiluminescence and schlieren images were used as diagnostic tools. The results were compared at corresponding phases of vortex shedding cycle.

This paper explored the effects of separation control through the use of pulsating jet blowing on a two dimensional elliptical airfoil. To develop an active control technique of flow separation, a flow control actuator utilizing continuous/pulsed jet of pressurized air was designed and installed in a wind tunnel testing model of elliptic wing. PIV measurement and flow visualization of the wing near field were conducted to access the feasibility and effectiveness of the pulsed jet blowing on controlling the stall of the elliptical wing in subsonic flow. PIV experimental results show that separation control can provide significant reduction in turbulent flow wake and separation bubbles by jet blowing. The pulsating jet blowing is more effective on the separation control than continuous one. Increased jet frequency suppressed the turbulent separated flow wake effectively at even higher AOAs.

본 연구에서는 지진해일 모의결과를 바탕으로 하여 지진해일모형 결과에 민감하게 작용할 수 있는 다양한 입력조건을 분석하였다. 우선 2004년 인도양 지진해일 모의를 위하여 다중격자체계를 갖추고 있는 COMCOT모형과 수심적분된 Boussinesq모형의 결합모형을 사용하였으며, 근해역에 지진해일 충격 및 피해산정 결과에 유효한 영향을 주는 입력인자를 파악하기 위하여 4가지의 시나리오를 설정하였다. 각 시나리오에서는 3개의 서로 다른 독립인자가 포함되었으며 이들은 배타적으로 결정되어 최소한의 시나리오로 다양한 분석이 가능하도록 하였다. 즉, 시나리오 1에서는 지진해일의 초기수면상태를 산정하기 위한 간략화된 단층모형을 적용하였고, 이 때 바닥마찰에 대한 고려는 배제되었다. 시나리오 2에서는 시나리오 1과 모든 조건은 동일하게 하였으나 유한단층 모형을 통해 초기수면상태를 산정하도록 하였다. 이처럼 유사하게 시나리오 3에서는 복잡한 지형 특성을 나타내는 몰디브 지역의 보다 정확한 해석을 위하여 몰디브 지역의 상세격자망을 추가적으로 다중격자체계에 포함시켰다. 마지막으로 바닥마찰항에 대한 민감도를 분석하기 위하여 시나리오 4에서는 바닥마찰항에 대한 고려를 포함시켰다. 또한, 4가지 시나리오 외에 결합모형의 성능을 평가하기 위하여, COMCOT모형만을 사용하는 시나리오를 추가적으로 설정하였다. 즉, 시나리오 1과 모든 조건은 동일하되 COMCOT모형만을 사용하도록 하였다. 설정된 조건에 따른 수치모의 결과, 지진해일 내습에 따른 해수위 변화는 각 시나리오별로 큰 차이를 보이지 않았으나, Boussinesq모형에 의한 지진해일의 동수역학적 거동은 COMCOT모형을 사용한 결과와 유의한 차이를 보였으며, 특히 파랑에 기인한 난류적 거동은 극명한 대조를 이루었다. 따라서, 본 연구결과를 통해 향후 파랑에 기인한 난류적 거동의 정확모의를 위해 수치해석에 따른 확산오차 및 바닥마찰항에 대한 면밀한 연구가 필요함을 시사하였다.

캐비테이션 현상은 고 유속 환경에서 발생(inception), 성장(growth), 붕괴(collapse) 및 소멸(disappearance) 과정이 반복적으로 일어나며 그 과정에서 기포붕괴에 따른 큰 충격압력을 방지하려는 분야와 이를 능동적으로 산업분야에 적용하려는 분야로 크게 대별된다. 본 연구에서는 캐비테이션의 붕괴거동을 수중 초음파 진동자에서 미세기포를 발생시켜 PIV기법을 이용하여 유동장을 계측하였다. 초음파 진동자는 직경 16 mm이며, 진동주파수는 20 kHz, 진폭은 $5{\mu}m$, $10{\mu}m$, $30{\mu}m$ 및 $50{\mu}m$를 각각 적용하였다. 유동구조, 난류강도, 레이놀즈 응력에 대한 통계적 유동정보를 계측한 결과 충격압력의 원인으로 알려진 캐비티 붕괴로 인해 유동특성을 확인하였다.

A driving controller for active destruction protections can be applied to machinery, aerospace and military fields. In particular, this controller can be used to track and attack enemy flying objects through the active control. It is important to ensure reliability of the driving controller since its operation should be kept with precision to the target point. The temperature of the environment where the driving controller is used is about -32 C ~ 50 C (241~323 ). Heat generated in the driving controller should be maintained below a certain threshold (85 C (358 )) to ensure reliability; therefore, the study and analysis of the heat flow characteristics in the driving controller are required. In this research, commercial software Solid-Works Flow Simulation was used for the numerical simulation assuming a low Reynolds number turbulence model and an incompressible viscous flow. The goal of this paper is to design the driving controller safely by analyzing the characteristics of the heat flow inside of the controller composed of chips or boards. Our analysis shows temperature distributions for boards and chips below a certain threshold.

This paper introduces a simulator to assess the impacts of the wind and the airframe vibration on the performance of the Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radar mounted in an aircraft. The AESA radar is mounted on the nose cone of an aircraft, and vibration occurs due to the drag force. This vibration affects the behavior of the AESA radar and can cause phase errors in signal. The simulator adopts the geometric model for nose cone, the mathematical models on the rigid-body dynamics of the aircraft, the average/turbulent winds, and the mode/ambient vibrations to compute the position and the attitude of the radar accurately. Numerical studies reflecting a set of test scenarios were conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed simulator.
