In this study, Explicit Algebraic Reynolds Stress Model (EARSM) which is based on the existing ${\kappa}-{\omega}$ model has been applied to the flow field analysis around ship hulls. Existing transport equations for the turbulent kinetic energy and the dissipation rate are used in almost the same form and anisotropy terms of Reynolds stresses are newly considered. The well-known KVLCC2 and KCS hull forms are selected as validation cases, which were also used in 2010 Workshop on CFD in Ship Hydrodynamics. In case of KVLCC2 double model, comparison of mean velocity distribution, turbulent kinetic energy, and Reynolds stresses near the propeller plane has been carried out and wave elevation and wave profiles have been additionally studied for KCS and KVLCC2 with free surface models. Some improved results for mean velocity distribution at the propeller plane have been obtained while there is little change in free surface wave profiles.

In this study, the characteristics of the three-dimensional turbulent flow in a rotating square sectioned $90^{\circ}$ bend were investigated by numerical simulation and experiment. In the experimental study, the characteristics of a developing turbulent flow are measured using hot-wire anemometer to seize the rotational effects on the flow characteristics and to compare the results of computational simulation with Reynolds stress model. Each refinement is shown to lead to an appreciable improvement in the agreement between measurement and computation.

본 연구에서는 비선형 k-$\varepsilon$ 모형을 이용하여 직사각형 개수로에서 평균흐름과 난류구조를 모의하였다. 표준 k-$\varepsilon$ 난류모형은 난류의 등방성을 가정하여 국부적 평형상태에서 계산하기 때문에 유선에 따른 레이놀즈 응력의 변형이 큰 경우나 이방성이 강한 경우 이를 계산하지 못한다. 이를 보완하기 위하여 제시된 것이 비선형 k-$\varepsilon$ 난류모형이다. 본 연구에서는 표준 k-$\varepsilon$ 모형과 비선형 k-$\varepsilon$ 모형에 의한 모의결과를 비교하였다. 난류모형을 검증하기 위하여 직사각형 개수로에 흐름을 완전 발달된 등류로 가정하여 해석하였다. 지배방정식을 해석하기 위해 Patankar와 Spalding (1972)이 제시한 SIMPLER 알고리즘을 사용하였고 유한체적법을 이용하여 이산화하고 엇갈린 격자체계를 사용하여 계산에서 발생하는 과도한 진동을 줄였다. 또한 차분기법은 Patankar (1980)가 제시한 Power-law 기법을 채택하였으며 경계조건으로 2층 벽법칙 모형과 Hossain과 Rodi (1993)의 모형을 이용하였다. 두 모형의 적용성을 검증하기 위하여 실측자료를 이용하여 비교하였고 그 결과 비선형 k-$\varepsilon$ 모형이 표준 k-$\varepsilon$ 모형에 비해 좀 더 실측지에 가깝게 모의하는 것을 볼 수 있었다.

In this study, the 1D apparent shear stress model for vegetated compound open-channel flows was suggested. To consider the effect of momentum exchange between main channel and floodplain, the eddy viscosity concept was used in the present model. The interfacial eddy viscosity in the interface of main channel and floodplain was determined from the 3D Reynolds stress model. The evaluated interfacial eddy viscosity appears to be good agreement with those proposed previously. To investigate the effect of interfacial eddy viscosity, sensitive analysis was carried out. the computed backwater profiles are nearly identical with respect to the value of the interfacial eddy viscosity. However, the discharge conveyed by the floodplain changes is proportional to the interfacial eddy viscosity. Finally, the changes of the interfacial eddy viscosity due to the vegetation density and vegetation height were examined. The computed results of interfacial eddy viscosity are in proportion to the vegetation density and vegetation height, and the interfacial eddy viscosity has a range of $(2-5)\;{\times}\;10^{-4}$.

Incompressible flow over a backward-facing step is computed by low Reynolds number turbulence models in order to compare with direct simulation results. In this study, selected low Reynolds number 1st and 2nd (Algebraic Stress Model : ASM) moment closure turbulence models are adopted and compared with each other. Each turbulence model predicts different flow characteristics, different re-attachment point, velocity profiles and Reynolds stress distribution etc. Results by .kappa.-.epsilon. turbulence models indicate that predicted re-attachment lengths are shorter than those by standard model. Turbulent intensity and eddy viscosity by low Reynolds number .kappa.-.epsilon. models are still greater than DNS results. The results by algebraic stress model (ASM) are more reasonable than those by .kappa.-.epsilon. models. The convective scheme is QUICK (Quadratic Upstream Interpolation for Convective Kinematics) and SIMPLE algorithm is adopted. Reynolds number based on step height and inlet free stream velocity is 5100.

Turbulence structure and suspended sediment transport capacity in vegetated open-channel flows are investigated numerically in the present paper. The $\textsc{k}-\;\varepsilon$ model is employed for the turbulence closure. Mean velocity and turbulence characteristics including turbulence intensity, Reynolds stress, and production and dissipation of turbulence kinetic energy are evaluated and compared with measurement data available in the literature. The numerical results show that mean velocity is diminished due to the drag provided by vegetation, which results in the reduction of turbulence intensity and Reynolds stress. For submerged vegetation, the shear at the top of vegetation dominates turbulence production, and the turbulence production within vegetation is characterized by wakes. For emergent condition, it is observed that the turbulence generation is dominated by wakes within vegetation. In general, simulated profiles compares favorably to measured data. Computed values of eddy viscosity are used to solve the conservation equation for suspended sediment, yielding sediment concentration more uniform over the depth compared with the one in the plain channel. The simulation reveals that the suspended load decreases as the vegetation density increases and the suspended load increases as the particle diameter decreases for the same vegetation density.

This paper reports the characteristics of the three dimensional turbulent flow in the 180 degree bends with decreasing cross-sectional area by numerical method. Calculated pressure and velocity, Reynolds stress distributions are compared to the experimental data. Turbulence model employed are low Reynolds number k-epsilon model and algebraic stress model. The results show that the main vortex generated from the inlet part of the bend maintained to outlet of the bend because of the contraction of cross-sectional area. The rate of increase of turbulent kinetic energy through the bend are lower than that of mean flow. Secondary flow strength of the flow is lower about 60% than that of square duct flow.

본 연구에서는 3차원 수치모의를 통하여 횡방향 하상형상 및 격자형 이차흐름 구조의 생성 메커니즘을 분석하였다. 이를 위해 곡선좌표계에서의 지배방정식을 구성하고, 난류 폐합을 위해 Speziale(1987)가 제안한 비등방성 k-$\varepsilon$모형을 이용하였다. 또한 Exner 방정식을 이용하여 시간에 따른 하상변동을 예측하였다. 그 결과 바닥과 측벽 사이에서 발생되는 바닥 이차흐름의 하향류에 의해 측벽 부근부터 하상이 침식되고, 침식된 유사량은 이차흐름의 횡방향 유속에 의해 이동되어 퇴적되어, 결국 횡방향으로 연속적인 언덕 및 저면과 같인 하상형상이 생성되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 시간에 따른 이차흐름 및 바닥 전단력, 하상고의 변화에 대해 살펴보았다.

An analysis is performed to examine the equilibrium state and the stability of modeled Reynolds stress equations for homogeneous turbulent shear flows. The system of the governing equations consists of four coupled ordinary differential equations. The equilibrium states are found by the steady state solution of the governing equations. In order to investigate the stability of the system about its state in equilibrium, and eigenvalue problem is constructed. As a result, constraints for the coeffieients in the model equations are obtained by the stability condition of the equilibrium state as well as by their physically realizable bounds. It is observed that the models with pressure-strain rate correlation that are linear in the anisotropy tensor are stable and produce reasonable equilibrium tensor do not behave properly. Stability considerations about three most commonly used models are given in detail in the final section.

This paper reports the characteristics of the three dimensional turbulent flow by numerical method in the 180 degree bends with increasing cross-sectional area. Calculated pressure and velocity, Reynolds stress distributions are compared to the experimental data. Turbulence model employed are low Reynolds number $textsc{k}$-$\varepsilon$ model and algebraic stress model(ASM). The results show that the main vortex generated from the inlet part of the bend maintained to outlet of the bend and vortices are continually developed at the inner wall region. The distribution of turbulent kinetic energy along the bend are increase up to 120$^{\circ}$ because of increment of cross-sectional area. Secondary flow strength of the flow is lower about 60% than that of square duct flow.
