The slender structures such as high rise building or marine riser are highly susceptible to dynamic force exerted by fluid-structure interactions among which vortex-induced vibration(VIV) is the main cause of dynamic unstability of the structural system. If VIV occurs in natural frequency regime of the structure, fatigue failure likely happens by so-called lock-in phenomenon. This study presents the numerical analysis of dynamic behavior of both structure and fluid in the lock-in regimes and investigates the subjacent phenomena to hold the resonance frequency in spite of the change of flow condition. Unsteady and laminar flow was considered for a two-dimensional circular cylinder which was assumed to move freely in 1 degree of freedom in the direction orthogonal to the uniform inflow. Fluid-structure interaction was implemented by solving both unsteady flow and dynamic motion of the structure sequentially in each time step where the fluid domain was remeshed considering the movement of the body. The results show reasonable agreements with previous studies and reveal characteristic features of the lock-in phenomena. Not only the lift force but also drag force are drastically increasing during the lock-in regime, the vertical displacement of the cylinder reaches up to 20% of the diameter of the cylinder. The correlation analysis between lift and vertical displacement clearly show the dramatic change of the phase difference from in-phase to out-of-phase when the cylinder experiences lock-in. From the results, it can be postulated that the change of phase difference and flow condition is responsible for the resonating behavior of the structure during lock-in.

In this paper, a high-performance and low-noise centrifugal fan is developed for cooling automotive seats which provide a driver with pleasant driving environment. First, the flow characteristics of the existing fan unit was analyzed using a fan performance tester and CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulations. The analysis of the predicted flow field indicated vortex flow near the tip of fan hub and stagnation flow on the top of fan hub. Two design points are devised to reduce the vortex flow and the stagnation flow observed in the existing fan unit. First, the cut-off clearance which is the minimum distance between the fan blade and the fan housing is increased to reduce the vortex strength and, as a result, to reduce the overall sound pressure level. Second, the hub shape is more modified to eliminate the stagnation flow. The validity of proposed design is confirmed through the numerical analysis. Finally, a prototype is manufactured with a basis on the numerical analysis result and its improved flow and noise performances are confirmed through the P-Q curves measured by using the Fan Tester and the SPL (Sound Pressure Level) levels measured in the anechoic chamber.

진공청소기에서 발생하는 주 소음원은 홴(fan)에 의한 공력 소음및 모터의 진동에 기인하는 청소기 본체의 소음과 청소기 흡입 노즐(nozzle)에서 발생하는 공력 소음으로 나눌수 있다. 청소기 본체의 주 소음원인 원심 홴(centrifugal fan)은 고속으로 회전하며 구조가 복잡함으로 인해 소음 해석에 필수적인 유동의 해석이 어려우나 이산 와류법을 이용한 소음원 해석등의 연구가 진행중이다. 진공청소기 노즐부에서는 일반적인 분류(jet)의 토출과는 상이하게 공기를 흡입하는 구조로 소음 발생 기구의 모델링 (modeling)에 대한 연구는 거의 전무하다. 공력 소음은 Lighthill에 의하면 비정상 유체가 운동할 때 나타나는 변형에 기인한다고 하며 주변에 고정 경계면이 없는 상태에서 유체가 흐를 때 발생하는 소음을 이론적으로 연구하였다. 그후 Curle에 의해서 고체 벽면의 영향을 고려한 방정식의 해가 구해졌다.

Flow characteristics of two-dimensional closed square cavities near unsteady critical Reynolds numbers were studied numerically at five Reynolds numbers : 8${\times}10^3$, 8.5${\times}10^3$, 9${\times}10^3$, 9.5${\times}10^3$ and $10^4$ were investigated. A convection conservative difference scheme based upon SOLA to maintain the nearly 2nd-order spatial accuracy was adopted on irregular grid formation. Irregular grid number is 80${\times}$80 and its minimum size is about 1/400 of the cavity height(H) and its maximum is about 1/53 H. The result shows that the critical Reynolds number indicating the emergence of flow unsteadiness exists near Re=8.5${\times}10^3$ and their flow patterns reveal periodic fluctuation during transient and fully-developed stages.

Flow characteristics of two-dimensional closed square cavities near unsteady critical Reynolds numbers were studied numerically at four Reynolds numbers : $8{\times}10^3,\;8.5{\times}10^3,\;9{\times}10^3\;and\;9.5{\times}10^3.$ A convection conservative difference scheme based upon SOLA to maintain the nearly 2nd-order spatial accuracy is adopted on irregular grid formation. Irregular grid number is $80{\times}80$ and its minimum size is about 1/400 of the cavity height(H) and its maximum is about 1/53 H. The result shows that the critical Reynolds number indicating the emergence of flow wnsteadiness is ranging from Re=$8{\times}10^3\;to\;8.5{\times}10^3$ and their flow patterns reveal periodic fluctuation during transient and fully developed stages. But macroscopic flow behavior in terms of instantaneous and time-mean characteristics represent remarkable difference.

In this study, an experimental device was fabricated to evaluate the hovering flight performance of a single rotor on a hexacopter used for river surveillance, and a thrust performance test was conducted. In addition, the 3D profile of the propeller was extracted by 3D scanning and CFD analysis was performed using ANSYS CFD 14.5 based on the extracted 3D model of the propeller. The aerodynamic characteristics were compared with the results of the performance tests and CFD analysis, and the vortex structure corresponding to each motor rotational speed in revolutions per minute (rpm) was identified. In the future, we plan to provide valuable data for multicopter propeller design and performance verification.

Experimental study on combustion characteristics of double swirl coaxial injectors has been conducted for the assessment of critical injector design parameters. A reusable, unielement thrust chamber has been fabricated with a water-cooled copper nozzle. Two principal design parameters. a swirl angle and a recess length, have been investigated through hot firing tests for the understanding of their effects on high pressure combustion. Clearly, both parameters considerably affect the combustion efficiency, dynamics and hydraulic characteristics of an injector. Internal mixing of propellants in a recess region increases combustion efficiency along with the increase of a pressure drop required for flowing the same amount of mass flow rates. It is concluded that pressure buildup due to flame can be released by the increase of LOx flow axial momentum or the reduction of a recess length. Dynamic pressure measurements of the thrust chamber show varied dynamic behaviors depending on injector configurations.

A 4-years-old, intact male Golden retriever dog was presented with abdominal distension and dyspnea. Physical examination revealed arrhythmia and cardiac murmur. Generalized cardiomegaly, pleural effusion and ascites were shown on thoracic and abdominal radiographs. Two-dimensional echocardiography revealed abnormal mitral and tricuspid valve motion, mitral and tricuspid regurgitation, left ventricular eccentric hypertrophy and left atrial dilation. Color-flow Doppler imaging revealed turbulent flow extending into the left ventricle during diastole from the mitral valve orifice, and into the left atrium during systole. Spectral Doppler recordings revealed highly increased early diastolic mitral valve inflow and prolonged pressure half-time of mitral inflow. Based on the echocardiographic examination, the diagnosis was made as the mitral valve dysplasia concurrent with mitral valve stenosis and tricuspid valve dysplasia.

Analysis and separation of constituent materials of old car have been performed by using the industrial shredding line. For this aim, three old cars made by domestic automobile manufacturers, Sonata II, Sephia and Prince were chosen and delivered in pressed form without engine, tires and doors, etc. Shredding line was substantially composed of pre- and main-shredder. cyclone, magnetic separation, eddy current separation and man-power separation. From the separation of shredder products, iron scrap was observed to be the major material of old car accounting for 60.1 ％ of total weight and non-ferrous metals involving Al, Cu and Zn, etc. were about 2％. Light fluff, about 90％ of total fluff product, was comprised with plastic, fiber and sponge, etc. and the fraction of 5 cm undersize in light fluff was 70.5%. In case of heavy fluff, however. rubber and plastic were found to be the major constituent materials of it. Among the constituent materials of fluff, plastic showed the highest calorific value, more than 10,000 cal/gr and leather and rubber showed relatively high chlorine content, 10.3 and 2.55 wt%, respectively.
