Modifying effects of the rectangular forward step for suppressing the unsteady pressure fluctuation during interaction between the upstream vortical flow with the edge are studied numerically. The vortical flow is modeled by a point vortex, and the unsteady pressure coefficient is obtained from the velocity and the potential field. To investigate the effects of the edge shape the rectangular forward step is chamfered with various angles. Calculation show that the pressure peaks become decreased by increasing the vortex height as well as the chamfering angle. The pressure amplitudes are very sensitive to the change of the initial vortex height. From this study we can find out that the chamfered edge has two effects; the one is that it suppresses the pressure amplitude generated from the edge, and the other is that it decreases the time variation of unsteady pressure fluctuation. These modifying concepts can be applied to attenuate the self-sustained oscillation mechanism at the open cavity flow.

The exit edges of a diffuser are smoothly rounded, and a wall is located perpendicularly to a diffuser exit. The fluid is discharged towards the radial direction of a diffuser after impinging against a wall from a diffuser. In this flow path, pressure loss coefficients have been calculated by the variables of Reynolds number at a diffuser inlet, distance between a diffuser exit and a wall, and turbulence models. As a result, it was calculated that $h/D_0$ ratio between $0.35\sim0.4$ has the minimum pressure loss coefficient regardless of Reynolds number and turbulence models. It was also found that in case of the flow with relatively high Reynolds number at a diffuser inlet, the pressure loss coefficients by RNG $k-\varepsilon$ model have a tendency to be near to those by standard $k-\varepsilon$ model at small ratio of $h/D_0$, but to those by RSM at large ratio.

Structural vibration induced by excitation forces under turbulent boundary layer is investigated in terms of the numerical analysis in this paper. Since the responses of structures excited by the wall pressure fluctuation(WPF) are described by the power spectral density functions, they are calculated and reviewed theoretically for finite and infinite length beams. For the use of numerical approaches, the WPF needs to be discretized but conventional finite element method is not much effective for that purpose because the WPF lose the spatial correlation characteristics. As an alternative numerical technique for WPF modelling, a wavenumber domain finite element approach, called waveguide finite element method, is examined here for infinite length beams. From the comparison between the numerical and theoretical results, it was confirmed that the WFE method can effectively and easily cope with the excitation from WPF and hence the suitable approach.

Modifying effects of the rectangular forward step for suppressing the unsteady pressure fluctuation during interaction between the upstream vortical flow and the edge are studied numerically. The vertical flow is modeled by a point vortex, and the unsteady pressure coefficient is obtained from the velocity and the potential fields. To investigate the effects of the edge shape the rectangular forward step is chamfered wish various angles. Calculation shows that the pressure peaks become decreased by increasing the vortex height as well as the chamfering angle. The pressure amplitudes are very sensitive to the change of the initial vertex height and its strength. From this study we can find out that the chamfered edge has two effects; the one is that it suppresses the pressure amplitude generated from the edge, and the other is that it decreases the time variation of unsteady pressure fluctuation. These modifying concepts can be applied to attenuate the self-sustained oscillation mechanism at the open cavity flow.

The comparative analysis of near-wall treatment methods that affect the prediction of heat transfer over the gas turbine nozzle guide vane were presented. To achieve this objective, wall-function and low Reynolds number methods, and the transition model were applied and simulated using NASA's C3X turbine vane. The predicted turbine vane surface pressure distribution data using the near-wall treatment methods were found to be in close agreement with experimental data. However, the predicted vane metal temperature and heat transfer coefficient displayed significant differences. Overall, the low Reynolds method and transition model did not offer specific advantages in the prediction of temperature and heat transfer than did the wall-function method. The Reynolds stress model used along with the wall-function method resulted in a relatively high accuracy of prediction of the vane metal temperature and heat transfer coefficient.

The prediction of heat loss during laminar flame propagation was carried out by measurement of gas pressure and visualization of flame propagation in the constant volume combustion chamber. And to validate the prediction, the instantaneous temperature at wall of combustion chamber was also measured. Consequently, it was found that heat loss was increased according to increasing of maximum flame travel distance, but rate of heat loss for heat release during laminar flame propagation was nearly constant. And heat loss depends on heat transfer area which was contacted the wall by burned gas regardless to spark plug location.

Load reduction ring (LRR) was installed on the ABB-Atom sparger to reduce the oscillatory loadings due to the air bubble clouds in the water pool in case of safety relief system operations. In order to investigate the effect of LRR on the pressure field, a numerical simulation on the behavior of air bubble clouds discharging into a water pool through a ABB-Atom sparser without LRR was performed by using a commercial thermal hydraulic analysis code, FLUENT 4.5. Among the multi-phase models contained in the code, the VOF (Volume Of Fluid) model was used to simulate the interface of water, air and steam flows. By comparing the analysis results with the previous ones, the load reduction ring has an effect on reducing the oscillatory loads at the wall. It also includes the effect of air mass and inlet boundary conditions of the pipe on the pressure oscillations at the wall.

This paper studies the aerodynamic performance that the vent mixer-new conceptual supersonic mixer-showed with its geometric characteristics. The hole is 2 mm with 2 mm's distance from the wall in case 1 and with no distance in case 2. In case 3 die hole is 1 mm. Case 1 and case 2 showed the same total pressure recovery ratio, of which the case 3 was lower than that. While cases 1-3 had the same reattachment length, the shear layer was thicker in cases 1 and 2 than in case 3. Within the recirculation zone, cases 1 and 2 had lower pressure loss and higher velocity gradient difference than case 3-they enhance mixing between air and fuel. Separation bubble which is developed by the inflow into the recirculation zone has a significant effect on the total pressure recovery ratio in the combustor. Also separation bubble influences pressure distributions and recirculation flows in the recirculation zone. Therefore, inflow rate of air into the recirculation zone mainly affects the performance of vent mixer.

The unsteady flow in three-dimensional cubic cavity with narrow channel at upper region is investigated experimentally for three kinds of Reynolds number, 1*10/sup 4/, 3*10/sup 4/ and 5*10/sup 4/ based on the cavity width and cavity inlet mean flow velocity. Instant velocity vectors are obtained simultaneously at whole field by PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry). Wall pressure distributions are estimated using Poisson equation from the velocity data. Results of PIV reveal that severe unsteady flow fluctuation within the cavity are remarkable at all Reynolds numbers and sheared mixing layer phenomena are also found at the region where inlet driving flow is collided with the clock-wise rotating main primary vortex. Instant velocity profiles reveal that deformed forced vortex formation is observed throughout the entire region and spanwise kinetic energy migration is conspicuous.

최근 CAD/CAM의 발전과 더불어 사출성형공정은 여러분야에 폭넓게 응용되고 있 다. 사출성형공정은 크게 충전과정(filling stage), 냉각과정(cooling stage), 보압과정(packing stage)로 나누어 지는데 이중 충전과정은냉각과정과 보압과정에서 나타날 물리적인 현상과 최종 성형품의 기계적 성질에 중요한 영향을 끼치게 된다. 충전과정의 수치 해석 방법은 대 표적으로 control volume method, branching flow method, transient moving boun-dary method로 구분된다. 본 연구에서는 격자의 형태를 양호하게 형성시키고 유동선단의 형태를 개선하기위한 기법인 Spline 곡선을 이용한 선단격자 재구성(frontal remeshing using spline curve)과 수치해석에 소요되는 시간을 줄이기 위하여 벽면경계조건 처리를 위한 선단 유동 장생성(frontal flow field construction for wall boun-dary condition treatment)기법을 개발 하고 transient moving voundary method에 적용시켜 원형 평판과 인장 및 굽힘시편 그리고 두께가 변하는 사각 형상을 가진 캐비터에서의 충전과정을 수치해석하였다. 그결과 압력 분 포, 온도분포, 속도장, 유동선단의 진전형태 등이 기존에 제출된 해석결과와 비교하여 볼 때 만족스러운 수치해석결과를 보였다.
