Due to technological advances, the cruising speed of high-speed trains is increasing, and aerodynamic noise generated from the flow outside the train has been an important consideration in the design stage. To accurately predict the flow-induced noise, high-resolution generation of sound sources in the near field and low-dissipation of sound propagation in the far field are required. This should be accompanied by a numerical grid and time resolution that can properly consider both temporal and spatial scales for each component of the real high-speed train. To overcome these challenges, this research simultaneously calculates the external flow and acoustic fields of five high-speed train cars of real-scale and at operational running speeds using a threedimensional unsteady Large Eddy Simulation technique. To verify the numerical analysis, the measurements of the wall pressure fluctuation and numerical results are compared. The Ffowcs Williams and Hawking equation is used to predict the acoustic power radiated from the high-speed train. This research is expected to contribute to noise reduction based on the analysis of the aerodynamic noise generation mechanism of high-speed trains.

Numerical simulation was carried out for a propane fire of mass transfer rate 3g/m^2-s$ on a 1m high vertical wall. The objectives of this study are to confirm the outcomes of evaluation of the simulator through simulation of natural convection, and to compare the results of the wall fire with those of previous studies. It was confirmed that the simulated boundary layer was laminar at C_s=0.2$ while it was turbulent at C_s=0.1$. The z direction velocity showed lack of turbulent mixing as seen in the natural convection case, and the profiles of temperature and velocities were in relatively good agreement with those of experiment and previous simulation. It was found that the air entrainment into the boundary layer was well predicted.

Effects of the Reynolds and Knudsen numbers on a micro-viscous pump are studied by using a Navier-Stokes code based on a finite volume method. The micro viscous pump consists of a circular rotor and a two-dimensional channel. The channel walls are treated by using a slip velocity model. The Reynolds number is studied in the range of $0.1{\sim}50$. The Knudsen number varies from 0.01 to 0.1. Numerical solutions show that the pump works efficiently when two counter rotating vortices formed on both sides of the rotor have the same size and intensity. As the Reynolds number increases, the size and intensity of the vortex on the inlet side of the pump decrease. It disappears when the Reynolds number is larger than about Re=20. The characteristics of the performance of the pump is shown to deteriorate, in terms of mean velocity and pressure rise, as the Reynolds number increases. The Knudsen number shows a different effect on the characteristics of the pump. As it increases, the mean velocity and pressure rise decrease but the characteristics of the vortex flow remains unchanged, unlike the effect of Reynolds number.

Natural convection of a magnetic fluid is different from that of Newtonian fluids because magnetic body force exists in an addition to gravity and buoyancy. In this paper, natural convection of a magnetic fluids (W-40) in annular pipes was studied by experimentally. Inside wall was kept at a constant temperature (25 $^{\circ}C$), and outside wall was also held at a constant but lower temperature (20 $^{\circ}C$). The magnetic fields of various magnitude were applied up. This study has resulted in the following fact that the natural convection of a magnetic fluids was controlled by the direction and intensity of the magnetic fields.

본 연구에서는 지열 에너지원으로써 터널 내부 벽면의 항온성을 이용하여 터널 외벽에 텍스타일 형태의 열교환기를 설치하고 열적 거동을 평가하였다. 터널의 라이닝 부분에서는 여러 가지 요인에 의해 지하수가 터널 내부로 유입하게 되므로 지하수의 유무에 대한 열적 거동 및 유동액의 순환 속도에 따른 영향, 열교환 파이프 배열 형태에 따른 영향을 현장 시험 시공과 현장 열응답시험을 통하여 평가하고자 하였다. 또한 3-D 유한체적해석 프로그램(FLUENT)을 이용하여 숏크리트와 라이닝의 열전도도를 고려한 열교환기의 성능을 분석하였다. 수치해석 결과 열교환 파이프 주변에 지하수의 흐름이 존재할 경우 열전달이 상대적으로 더 원활히 이루어졌으며 순환속도가 빠를 때 보다 느릴수록 효율이 높게 나타났다. 또한, 파이프의 간격이 넓을수록, 파이프의 길이가 길수록 효율이 높게 나타났다. 라이닝 및 숏크리트의 열전도도가 증가함에 따라 에너지 텍스타일의 열전달 효율이 높게 나타났다. 현장 시험을 통해 비슷한 길이의 파이프가 사용된 경우, 파이프 배열 형태에 따라 수평형보다는 수직형 배열의 효율이 높게 측정되었다.

The goal of heat transfer studies is the accurate prediction of temperature and heat flux distribution on material boundaries. To this purpose, general-purpose computational fluid dynamics(CFD) code is used : FLUENT. Mass fluxes and pressure ratio are calculated for two types of nozzle. The comparative studies reveal that the computational results are in agreement with the experimental data. Also, heat transfer coefficients from FLUENT for one type of nozzle are very similar and agree well with the experimental data in the diverging part of the nozzle, but the calculated results are large in the converging part. The heat transfer coefficients from Bartz equation are over-predicted. We can consider various reasons for these differences, i.e., laminarization by the highly accelerated flow in the nozzle, turbulent flow model and grid generation.

In this study, the experiments are performed to investigate the local heat transfer and pressure drops of developed turbulent flows in the diverging square channels along the axial distance. The square divergent channels are manufactured with a fixed rib height (e) = 10 mm. Four different parallel angled ribs ($a=30^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$, $60^{\circ}$, and $90^{\circ}$) are placed on the channel's one-sided wall only. TThe measurement are conducted within the range of Reynolds numbers from 22,000 to 79,000. The results show that a rib angle-of-attack of $45^{\circ}$ produces the best heat-transfer performance.

The present study investigates the performance of dynamic mixed model (DMM; Zang et ai.) in a channel with strong wall injection through a Large eddy simulation (LES) technique. The DMM results are compared with those of DNS and the results obtained with popular dynamic Smagorinsky model (DSM). Better agreement is achieved when using the DMM with box filter than DSM and coarse DNS in predicting the first and second order statistics as well as large-scale structures of velocity and temperature fields. Such favorable features of DMM are attributed to the fact that it explicitly calculates the modified Leonard stress term and only models the remaining cross and the SGS Reynolds stress terms and, thus, it reduces the excessive burden put on the model coefficient of DSM. Also it is demonstrated that the DMM can be successfully extended to the prediction of temperature (passive scalar) field where strong streamwise inhomogeneity exists.

A numerical analysis was carried out to study two-dimensional turbulent natural convection in a square enclosure containing fluid of Prandtl number 6.05 within internal energy sources. The square enclosure was bounded by four rigid planes of constant equal temperature. Inclination angles of 0, 15, 30 and 45 deg. from the horizon for Rayleigh numbers from 1 * 10$^{6}$ to 1 * 10$^{9}$ were studied. Local and average Nusselts numbers are obtained on all four walls. If inclination angle exists, the average Nusselt number appears in increasing order at bottom, left, right and top wall.
