An unsteady blockage-correction method utilizing wall pressure distribution on the test section has been developed for the wall interference correction of a closed test-section subsonic wind tunnel. The pressure distribution along the test section wall was decomposed into Fourier series and a quasi-steady method based on a measured-boundary-condition method was applied to each Fourier coefficient. The unsteady correction for a complete test period was accomplished by recombining each corrected terms. The present method was validated by appling computed unsteady flows over a cylinder and an oscillating airfoil in the test sections. The corrected results by the present method agreed well with free-air condition.

슬릿트나 관형의 흐름에서 유체의 유변학적 성질을 측정하기 위해서는 벽면에서의 압력구배를 알아야한다. 벽면에서의 압력측정은 특히 관형의 경우 압력구멍의 존자가 불가 피하다. 압력구멍에 의한 오차에 대한 이론적인 고찰이 있었지만 사용된 몇가지 가정이 실 험적인 과찰과 일치하지 않아 이들 이론에 대한 강한 의문을 제기하고 한다. 한편 실험적인 결과는 묽은 고분자 용액인 경우 측정압력에 대한 상대적인 압력구멍 오차가 무시할 수 없 을 정도로 크다. 압력구멍 오차는 압력구멍의 크기, Reynolds 수 (점성) 및 Weissenberg 수 (탄성)의 함수로 나타나고 있다. 그러나 농도가 비교적 높은 고분자 용액이나 용융체는 상대 적으로 무시할 수 있을 정도의 압력구멍 오차를 나타낸다.

Fluctuating wall pressures were measured using an array of 16 piezoelectric transducers beneath a turbulent boundary layer. The coating used in this experiment was an open-cell, urethane-type foam with a porosity of approximately 50 ppi. The ultimate objective of the coating is to provide a mechanical filter to reduce the wall pressure fluctuations. The boundary layer on the flat plate was measured by using a hot wire probe, and the CPM method was used to determine the skin friction coefficient. The wall pressure autospectra and streamwise wavenumber-frequency spectra were compared to assess the attenuation of the wall pressure field by the coating. The coating is shown to attenuate the convective wall pressure energy. However, the relatively rough surface of the coating in this investigation resulted in a higher mean wall shear stress, thicker boundary layer, and higher low-frequency wall pressure spectral levels compared to a smooth wall.

본 연구에서는 외부 호스, 내부 충진유 및 탄성체 핵으로 구성된 다층 재질의 무한히 긴 원통형 실린더가 자유 흐름 중에 있을 때, 유체 유동에 의한 난류 경계층내 벽면 압력 변동(wall pressure fluctuation)이 내부 탄성체 핵의 표면에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위하여 난류 경계층에 의한 다층 재질의 실린더 내부 압력 변동 해석 이론을 정립하였다. 본 해석 이론에서는 파동 방정식을 이용하여 외부 호스 벽면 압력에 대한 전달 함수를 도출하고, 난류 경계층내 벽면 압력 변동은 Corcos Model을 기초로 하여 Strawderman이 제안한 실험식을 사용하여 추정하였다. 또 이를 바탕으로 자유 흐름 속도 변화등에 따른 실린더 내부 압력변도의 변화를 분석하여 보았다.

For study on the unsteady wall interference effect, flows around a circular cylinder in closed test-section wind tunnels have been numerically investigated by solving compressible Navier-Stokes equations. The numerical scheme is based on a node-based finite-volume method with the Roe's flux-difference splitting and an implicit time-integration method coupled with dual time-step sub-iteration. The computed results showed that the unsteady pressure gradient over the cylinder is enhanced by the wall interference, and as a result the fluctuations of lift and drag are augmented. The drag is further increased because of the lower base pressure. The vortex shedding frequency is also increased by the wall interference. The pressure on the test section wall shows the harmonics having the shedding frequency contained in the wall effect.

The present study investigated flow dynamics of a straight elastic blood vessel under sinusoidal flow conditions in order to understand influence of wall motion and impedance phase angle(time delay between pressure and flow waveforms) on wall shear stress distribution using computational fluid dynamics. For the straight elastic tube model considered in the our method of computation. The results showed that wall motion induced additional terms in the axial velocity profile and the pressure gradient. These additional terms due to wall motion reduced the amplitude of wall shear stress and also changed the mean wall shear stress. Te trend of the changes was very different depending on the impedance phase angle. As the wall shear stress increased. As the phase angle was reduced from 0$^{\circ}$to -90$^{\circ}$for ${\pm}$4% wall motion case, the mean wall shear stress decreased by 10.5% and the amplitude of wasll shear stress increased by 17.5%. Therefore, for hypertensive patients vulnerable state to atherosclerosis according to low and oscillatory shear stress theory.

In recent years, experimental and theoretical studies show that turbulent flows looking disordered have a definite structure produced repetitively with visible order. As a core structure of turbulence, hairpin vertices are believed to play a major role in developing and sustaining the turbulence process in the near wall region of turbulent boundary layers and may be regarded as the simplest conceptual model that can account for the essential features of the wall pressure fluctuations. In this work, fully developed typical hairpin vortices are focused and the associated surface pressure distributions and their corresponding spectra are estimated. On the basis of the attached eddy model, the overall surface pressure spectra are represented in terms of the eddy size distribution. The model is validated by comparison of predicted wavenumber spectra with existing empirical models, the results of direct numerical simulation (DNS) and also spatial correlations with experimental measurements.

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.

The wall interference effects around the wind-turbine airfoil are experimentally investigated at low Reynolds numbers in a closed test-section wind tunnel. The test is performed at free-stream velocities from 10 to 31 m/s, which correspond to Reynolds numbers ranging from $1.5{\times}10^5$ to $4.6{\times}10^5$ based on chord of the airfoil. The blockage-area ratios, which is the ratio of the chord to the test-section width, are 27.8%, 38.5%, 41.7%, 45.5%, and 55.6%. The test results for the airfoil show that the transition point on the airfoil surface tends to move backward due to wall interference. The wall pressures for an adequate interference correction by a measured-boundary-condition method are desirable more than three times region of the chord before and after around the reference center.
