일반적으로 배관계를 통하는 유체 유량을 조절하거나 감압하는 목적으로 각종 밸브가 널리 이용되고 있다. 이러한 밸브는 작동 유체의 종류나 밸브형상에 따라 여러 가지로 분류할 수 있으나, 밸브가 유동에 미치는 저항특성, 밸브에서 발생하는 유동관련 소음진동, 기밀도, 내구 및 보수성 등을 고려하여 적절한 밸브를 선정하게 된다. 종래 버터플라이 밸브는 주로 비압축성 유체유동을 조절하기 위하여 사용되어 왔으나, 최근 다양한 방면에서 압축성 유동을 제어하기 위하여 그 활용이 증대되고 있다. 이것은 버터플라이 밸브의 형상이 매우 단순하여 밸브가 유동에 미치는 저항이 작으며, 제작 및 설치가 용이하기 때문이다.

풍동과 같은 고가의 실험 장비가 필요하고 결과를 얻는데까지 많은 시간과 비용이 소요되는 단점이 있습니다. 전산유체역학은 이러한 문제점들을 보완할 수 있는 휼륭한 대안으로 인정받고 있습니다. 자연계에서 공기나 물 등의 유체가 우리의 관심 대상인 비행기, 자동차 등의 물체 주위를 흘러갈 때 생기는 물리 현상들은 보존의 법칙과 열역할 법칙에서 얻어지는 편미분 방정식들로 나타낼 수 있습니다. 이러한 자연계의 법칙을 나타내는 복잡한 방정식을 컴퓨터로 해석하여 데이터를 얻는 수치적인 실험 혹은 시물레이션을 전산유체역할 이라고 부릅니다.

PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry : 입자영상유속계)는 유동장에 분포된 추종입자의 위치를 영상처리에 의해 자동추적 함으로써 속도벡터를 전유동영역에 걸쳐 동시에 구할 수 있는 계측기법이다. 따라서, CFD와 같이 정량적 및 정성적으로 수치해석된 결과와 바로 비교 검토가 가능한 유일한 실험기법으로 인식되고 있다. 본 실험에서는 CFD에 의한 모형의 유체유동 특성을 분석하고 이를 회류수조에서 PIV를 이용해 모형 전개판 주위의 유체흐름을 분석하여 각 전개판 모형의 유체유동 특성을 파악하였다. (중략)

This study presents a Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) coupled with a momentum-exchange approach/fictitious domain (MEA/FD) method for the simulation of particle suspensions. The method combines the advantages of the LB and the FD methods by using two unrelated meshes, namely, a Eulerian mesh for the flow domain and a Lagrangian mesh for the solid domain. The rigid body conditions are enforced by the momentum-exchange scheme in which the desired value of velocity is imposed directly in the particle inner domain by introducing a pseudo body force to satisfy the constraint of rigid body motion, which is the key idea of a fictitious domain (FD) method. The LB-MEA/FD method has been validated by simulating two different cases, and the results have been compared with those through other methods. The numerical evidence illustrated the capability and robustness of the present method for simulating particle suspensions.

The prediction of hydrate pellet decomposition characteristics is required to design the regasification process of GTS (gas to solid) technology, which is considered as an economic alternative for LNG technology to transport natural gas produced from small and stranded gas wells. Mathematical model based on the conservation principles, the phase equilibrium relation, equation of gas state and phase change kinetics was set up and numerical solution procedure employing volume averaged fixed grid formulation and extended enthalpy method are implemented. Initially, porous methane hydrate pellet is at uniform temperature and pressure within hydrate stable region. The pressure starts to decrease with a fixed rate down to the final pressure and is kept constant afterwards while the bounding surface of pellet is heated by convection. The predicted convective heat and mass transfer accompanied by the decomposed gas flow through hydrate/ice solid matrix is reported focused on the comparison of spherical and cylindrical pellets having the same effective radius.

In this paper, a parametric study on ribs which are installed in an equilateral triangular internal cooling channel is presented. The numerical analysis of the flow structure and heat transfer characteristics is performed using three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with the shear stress transport turbulence model. The numerical results are obtained at Reynolds number, 20,000. The parametric study is performed for the parameters, the angle of a rib, rib pitch-to-hydraulic diameter ratio, rib width-to-hydraulic diameter ratio, and rib height-to-hydraulic diameter ratio. The computational results are validated with the experimental data for area-averaged Nusselt number.

Recently, there have been efforts to construct hybrids among the existing methodologies for multiphase flow such as VOF, Level Set, and Front Tracking with the intention of facilitating simulations of general three-dimensional problems. As one of the hybrid method, we have developed the Level Contour Reconstruction Method (LCRM) for general three-dimensional multiphase flows including phase change. The main idea was focused on simplicity and a robust algorithm especially for the three-dimensional case. It combines characteristics of both Front Tracking and Level Set methods. While retaining an explicitly tracked interface using interfacial elements, the calculation of a vector distance function plays a crucial role in the periodic reconstruction of the interface elements in the LCRM method to maintain excellent mass conservation and interface fidelity. In addition, compact curvature formulation is incorporated for the calculation of the surface tension force thereby reducing parasitic currents to a negligible level.

Plate Heat Exchnager(PHE) has recently become widely adopted for cogeneration systems owing to its small installation space and high thermal efficiency. The gap between plates can be changed depending on its assemble type, i.e. gasket or blazing. The gap is known to affect thermal efficiency and working pressure drop in PHE with complicated geometrical features. Numerical simulation techniques have been developed to deal with PHE with complex configuration of chevron plates. The present study is aiming at identifying the gap effect on pressure drop and thermal efficiency of the PHE. The numerical simulation results show that the gap has relatively large effects on working pressure drop than thermal efficiency in performance of PHE.

Numerical analysis of two dimensional incompressible laminar free jet flow was carried out by using finite difference SMAC scheme. Flow characteristics of free jet flow such as jet width, similarity of jet velocity and hypothetical origin were investigated for different Reynolds numbers of Re=30 and 100. The reliability of predictions were confirmed by comparison with exact solution. Non-dimensional velocity distribution showed similarity of jet flow velocity after initial region. In the region of laminar flow, the location of hypothetical origin becomes more distant with Reynolds number.

This paper presents three-dimensional flow analysis for a mixed-flow pump which consists of a rotor and a stator. Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with shear stress transport turbulence model are discretized by finite volume approximations and solved by the commercial CFD code CFX 11.0. Structured grid system is constructed in the computational domain, which has O-type grids near the blade surfaces and H-type grids in other regions. Validation of the numerical results was performed with experimental data for head coefficients and hydraulic efficiencies at different flow coefficients. This paper shows that the pump characteristics can be predicted effectively by numerical analysis.
