Two versions of anisotropic k-ε turbulence model are incorporated in the modified k-ε model of Sohn et al. to avoid the need for the experimental normal stress value in the model and applied to convergent and divergent flows with strong and adverse pressure gradients in the plane of symmetry of a body of revolution. The models are the nonlinear k-ε model of Speziale and the anisotropic model of Nisizima & Yoshizawa. All of the models yield satisfactory results for relatively complex flow on a plane-of-symmetry boundary layer. The results of the models are compared with those results of experimental normal stress value.

In this study a channel cavity flow was performed. The channel has small size in the upper cavity region. At the gap is supplied by driven flow for Reynolds number. The experimental study was carried out in a channel cavity with square heat surface by visualization equipment with Mach-Zehnder interferometer and laser apparatus. Heat source was uniform heat flux($0.4W/cm^2,\;0.8W/cm^2,\;1.2W/cm^2$). When the bottom wall is heated, the tendency of natural convection flows are vigorous increasing heat flux.

During flight of the aircraft, the vortex merging phenomenon appears under the certain condition between co-rotating vortices which were generated at the wing tip and lifting-surface. And then these merged vortices at both sides show counter-rotating pattern to affect on the downstream of the aircraft. In this paper, the numerical simulations are conducted assuming this phenomenon in two-dimensional co-rotating or counter-rotating vortices pairs. Two-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations were converted into Vorticity-Streamfunction form and the Galerkin spectral method was adopted. The third order Runge-Kutta method was used for time integration. The effects on the vortex merger and degree of vortex merger were investigated according to time, Reynolds number, and changes in the distance between two vortices.

Stratified flow past a three-dimensional obstacle such as a sphere has been a long-lasting subject of geophysical, environmental and engineering fluid dynamics. In order to investigate the effect of the stratification on the near wake, in particular, the unsteady vortex formation behind a sphere, numerical simulations of stratified flows past a sphere are conducted. The time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations are solved using a three-dimensional finite element method and a modified explicit time integration scheme. Laminar flow regime is considered, and linear stratification of density is assumed under Bossiness approximation. The computed results include the characteristics of the near wake and the unsteady vortex shedding. With a strong stratification, the separation on the sphere is suppressed and the wake structure behind the sphere becomes planar, resembling that behind a vertical cylinder.

Three-dimensional incompressible turbulent flow fields within the passage of the steam turbine nozzle with/without tip clearance have been simulated by solving the Navier-Stokes equations with SIMPLE scheme. The extended k-e model is applied to modeling the Reynolds stresses. Grids in the computational domain are generated by solving the Poisson's equations to improve the smoothness and orthogonality. Flow losses, secondary flow, velocity profiles, and deviation angles are obtained. The computated results without tip clearance show good agreement with the experimental data.

The effects of vortex generators, in the form of small tabs projecting into the flow at the axisymmetric supersonic nozzle exit and triangular thin tapes attached on the inner surface at the nozzle exit, on the characterixtics of supersonic mixing enhancements are experimentally investigated. Delta-shaped tabs as small as 1% of the nozzle exit area produce strong counter-rotating vortices, and is found to produce significant effects on the jet flowfield downstream of the nozzle. The effects is larger on the under-expanded cases than over- and perfect-expanded cases. Nozzle inner surface roughness also can do a role of centerline pressure decay for highly under-expanded jet cases. The effects of the angle of tabs with respect to flow direction are also investigated.

The unsteady nature of vortex structures has been investigated by a large eddy simulation (LES) in an axial flow fan with a shroud covering only the rear region of its rotor tip. The simulation shows that the tip vortex plays a major role in the structure and unsteady behavior of the vortical flow in the fan. The movements of the vortex structures induce high-pressure fluctuations on the rotor blade and in the blade passage. Frequency characteristics of the fluctuating pressure on the rotor blade are analyzed using wavelet transform. The dominant frequency of the real-time pressure selected at the high pressure fluctuation region corresponds well to that of the fluctuating rotor torque and the experimental result of fan noise. It is mainly generated due to the unsteady behavior of the vortical flow, such as the tip vortex and the leading edge separation vortex.

This paper reports a peculiar example of flow-induced vibration in a very large plant and the whole procedure of reducing the vibration. During the operation of flue gas desurfurization unit of the thermal power plant, serious vibration was dtected at all around the plant. The worst vibration was recorded on the heat exchanger surface, which weighed 180 tones, as 17.8 m/$s^2$ in vibration amplitude at 34 Hz. To identify the vibration, frequency analysis on the response vibration as well as on the expected excitation forces and the system resonance was executed. This investigation revealed that the cause of the vibration was vortex shedding from the circular pipes in the heat exchanger. Vortices from the pipes excited acoustic resonance in the heat exchanger room, which, in turn, made the structure vibrate. Through inserting the baffles between the pipes, which had an effect of cutting the acoustic wave at resonance frequency, the vibration was eliminated dramatically.

풍력터변의 성능을 높이기 위한 방법으로 최근 해외에서는 쉬라우드를 장착하여 유입 유량을 증진시키는 형상에 대한 새로운 아이디어가 제안되고 시범적으로 적용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 쉬라우드가 장착된 수평축 풍력터빈에 대해서 EDISON CFD를 이용하여 쉬라우드 내부로 유입되는 질량 유량의 변동을 몇 가지 형상에 대해 수치적으로 비교 분석하였다. 유동장은 비압축성 난류유동으로 가정하였으며, 수치 해석 결과로부터 쉬라우드 주변의 순환의 세기를 형상 변동에 따라 도출하였다. 쉬라우드 형상으로는 캠버를 갖는 goe 417 에어포일을 두 개의 받음각(5도, 10도)에 대해서 수치해석을 수행하였으며, 브림을 갖는 디퓨저 형상(Wind-lens)에 대해서도 유입 유량 변동과 순환 세기에 대해 수치해석을 수행하고 결과를 상호 비교하였다. 본 연구를 통해 쉬라우드가 발생시키는 순환에 의한 유입 유량 증가 현상을 파악할 수 있었으며, 이로써 풍력터빈의 출력을 증대시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다.
