An approach to reduce cancellation errors of the temperature preconditioned Navier-Stokes equations is proposed. This approach is also applied to the conventional preconditioning methods. Adiabatic laminar viscous flows around a circular cylinder are calculated at different Mach numbers. It is shown that a redefinition of total enthalpy for reducing magnitude of the enthalpy remarkably alleviates cancellation problems of the temperature preconditioning.

While the research for flow over a circular cylinder has been actively carried out up to the present, it has been known that the flow has not been clarified even now. Various complex flow and aero-acoustic characteristics exist around a circular cylinder such as flow separation, wake and pressure wave propagation. In this paper, research was carried out for wake flow and aeroacoustics over a circular cylinders by using high order, high resolution techniques that are used in two dimensional aero- acoustic analysis. OpenMP parallel processing method was used. For the numerical result, the periodic characteristic of Strouhal Number due to vortex shedding was comparatively analyzed with other experiment values and two dimensional numerical results.

A two-phase method in CFD has been developed and is applied to model the cavitation flow. The governing equation system is two-phase Navier-Stokes equation, comprised of the mixture mass, momentum and liquid-phase mass equation. It employs an implicite, dual time, preconditioned algorithm using finite difference scheme in curvilineal coordinates and Chien ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence equation. The experimental cavitating flows around ogive-cylinder and venturi type objects are employed to test the solver. To prove the capabilities of the solver, several three-dimentional examples are presented.

In this paper, mass transfer in turbulent flow around a rotating circular cylinder is investigated by Direct Numerical Simulation for Schmidt numbers Sc=1 and 1670. Correlation between Sherwood and Reynolds number predicted agrees well with other experimental results over both Sc. Reynolds analogy identified at Sc=1 definitely causes a strong correlation between concentration fluctuation and streamwise velocity. For Sc=1670, it is found that positive small values of concentration fluctuations are observed more frequently than the case of Sc=1 particularly out of the range of Nernst diffusion layer in the viscous sub-layer. This fact is fully confirmed by detailed statistical study using a probability density function of concentration fluctuations.

In this study, the confined laminar flow around a square cylinder, which ejects a either on the front face or on the rear face, is numerically simulated. In each case, three ratios of jet velocity to the fixed upstream velocity are considered. In all cases of the rear fuel jet, the high mass-fraction region is formed along the streamlines from the jet exit. In case of front jet, drag is significantly decreased when the jet velocity ratio is greater than 1. The results obtained exhibit flow and scalar-mixing characteristics encountered in a planar combustor

In this paper, an investigation on high-Schmidt number (Sc=1670) mass transfer in turbulent flow around a rotating circular cylinder is carried out by Direct Numerical Simulation. The concentration field is computed for three different values of low Reynolds number, namely 161, 348 and 623 based on the cylinder radius and friction velocity. Statistical study reveals that the thickness of Nernst diffusive layer is very small compared with that of viscous sub-layer in the case of high Sc mass transfer. Strong correlation of concentration field with streamwise and vertical velocity components is observed. However, that is not the case with the spanwise velocity component. Instantaneous concentration visualization reveals that the length scale of concentration fluctuation typically decreases as Reynolds number increases. Statistical correlation between Sherwood number and Reynolds number is consistent with other experiments currently available.

As computer capacity has been progressed continuously, the studies of the flow characteristics have been performing by the numerical methods actively. Recent numerical simulation has a tendency to require the higher-order accuracy in time, as well as in space. This tendency is more true in LES and acoustic noise simulation. In this study, 3-dimensional unsteady Incompressible Navier-Stokes equation was solved by numerical method using the fractional step method with the fourth order compact pade scheme to achieve high accuracy To validate the present code and algorithm, 3D flow-field around a cylinder was simulated. The drag coefficient and lift coefficient were computed and, then, compared with experiment. The present code will be tailored to LES simulation for more accurate turbulent flow analysis.

Horseshoe vortices are formed at the junction of an object immersed in fluid-flow and endwall plate as a result of three-dimensional boundary layer separation. This study shows preliminary results of the kinematics of such horseshoe vortices around a circular cylinder with a cavity (slot) placed upstream to disturb the primary separation line. Through the cavity, no mass flow addition (blowing) or reduction (suction) is applied. The upstream cavity weakens the adverse pressure gradient before the cavity. With the upstream cavity, a single vortex is found to form immediately upstream of the cylinder whereas a typical two vortex system is observed in the absence of the cavity. Furthermore, the strength of the single vortex tends to be reduced, resulting from the interaction with the separated flow convecting directly towards the leading edge of the cylinder.

The influences of the Reynolds number and free-stream turbulence intensity on the flow separation behavior around a circular were investigated experimentally. The range of the Reynolds number and turbulence intensity considered are 10,000 ~ 45,000 and 0.3 ~ 6.8%, respectively. Because of ineffectiveness of using time-mean value of hot-film sensor signals in determining the separation location around the cylinder, a new method using phase-difference of hot-film sensor signals with hot-wire being located in shedding vortex is suggested. The validity of the present method is confirmed by the comparison with flow visualization.

This study concerns a large eddy simulation (LES) of turbulent flow around a bluff body inside a sudden expansion cylindrical chamber, a configuration which resembles a premixed gas turbine combustor The simulation code is constructed by using the general coordinate system based on the physical contravariant velocity components. The Smagorinsky model is employed and the calculated Reynolds number is 5,000 based on the bulk velocity and the diameter of the inlet pipe. The combined grid technique and cylindrical grid are tested in the numerical simulation with complex geometry. The predicted turbulent statistics are evaluated by comparing with LDV measurement data. The numerical flow visualizations depict the behavior of turbulent mixing process behind the flame holder.
