In this paper, a free wake analysis based on the curved vortex element and CVC wake model is used to predict the aerodynamic performance and noise for HAWT. Also for prediction of RPM, a maximum value through a quadratic regression was suggested. And for a noise prediction, the broadband noise prediction method based on experimental equation was used. The curved vortex element uses a BCVE and an SIVE instead of a straight vertex element. In the CVC wake model, the vortex strengths are assumed to be constant along a span and a vortex filament. The free wake structure made by the curved vortex element and CVC was substituted for a vortex lattice, so it has an advantage for the less calculation time and a depiction of accurate wake structure. For the verification of this program, calculated results are compared with Mr. Kim's experiment model and Zond Z-40FS for performance and with WTS-4 and USWP models for noise. Good agreements are obtained between the predicted and the measured data for the performance and far-field noise spectra.

The effect of free stream tubulence on the coherent structure in the near wake of a circular cylinder was investigated by a conditional sampling technique. The measurements were made from C.T.A. with hot wire I-probe and a Split-film sensor. Contours of phase-averaged velocity and vorticities were presented and discussed. It was found that the value of the vortex strength increased with increasing free stream turbulence which can enhance the roll-up of the shear layer.

The flor characteristics around the KRISO 3600TEU container ship model have been experimentally investigated in a subsonic wind tunnel. The mean velocity and turbulence characteristics in the stern and wake regions were measured using an x-type hot-wire probe. The flow characteristics in the stern and near wake regions revealed a complicated three-dimensional flow pattern. The measured results showed clearly the formation of longitudinal vortices and their effect on the flow pattern in the wake region. The shear layer developed along the ship model expands showly to the downward direction. The turbulence statistics measured can be used as comparative data of numerical simulations and provide insights into development of accurate turbulence models for the ship design.

Two-dimensional turbulent wake flow behind a circular cylinder is investigated experimentally by suing linearized constant temperature hot wire anemometer. Turbulent fluctuations and mean velocity defects are measured in the rage of 5 dia.- 500 dia. downstream from the cylinder and for the Reynolds numbers of 2000-4000. Results with statistical treatment and digital data processing techniques are as follows: (1) The transition region from near wake to far wake is 30 dia. - 50 dia. downstream from the cylinder. (2) In the near wake, it is found that strong periodic ( f=845Hz) coherent structure exists. (3) It shows that the inertial subrange is 180Hz-2000Hz in self preservation region.

The global energy paradigm is rapidly changing by centering on carbon neutrality, and wind energy is positioning itself as a leader in renewable energy-based power sources. The success of onshore and offshore wind energy projects focuses on securing the economic feasibility of the project, which depends on securing high-quality wind resources and optimal arrangement of wind turbines. In the process of constructing the wind farm, the optimal arrangement method of wind turbines considering the main wind direction is important, and this is related to minimizing the wake effect caused by the fluid passing through the structure located on the windward side. The accuracy of the predictability of the wake effect is determined by the wake model and modeling technique that can properly simulate it. Therefore, in this paper, using WindSim, a commercial CFD model, the wake diffusion pattern is analyzed through the sensitivity study of each wake model of the proposed onshore wind farm located in the mountainous complex terrain in South Korea, and it is intended to be used as basic research data for wind energy projects in complex terrain in the future.

Large-scale vortical structure of a turbulent separation bubble affected by unsteady wake is essential to understand flow mechanisms in various fluid devices. A spoked-wheel type of wake generator provides unsteady wake, which modifies the turbulent separation bubble significantly by changing rotation directions and passing frequencies. A detailed mechanism of vortex shedding from the separation bubble with unsteady wake is analyzed by taking a conditional average with spatial box filtering, which spatially integrates measured signals at pre-determined wavelength. A convecting nature of the large-scale vortical structure is analyzed carefully. Spatial evolution of the large-scale vortical structure with frequency variance is also exemplified.

The flow structure behind circular and elliptical type rings embedded in a cross-flow was investigated experimentally using two-frame particle image velocimetry (PIV). The experiments were performed in a circulating water channel with a test section of 0.35m height ${\times}$ 0.3m width ${\times}$ 1.1m length. PIV measurements were carried out with varying the Reynolds number in the range of 4.5 ${\times}$ $10^2$ - 4.5 ${\times}$ $10^3$. In the present study, turbulent flow structures in the stream-wise direction and span-wise direction were investigated. The mean velocity field distribution was obtained by statistical-averaging instantaneous velocity fields. The spatial distributions of turbulent statistics such as turbulent intensities and turbulent kinetic energy were also investigated.

하천 만곡부 외곽 하안부의 빠른 유속은 침식을 유발하고 내측의 느린 유속은 토사 퇴적의 원인이 된다. 이는 하천 지형을 지속적으로 변화시키는 원인이 되고 나아가 하천 주변의 환경뿐만 아니라 안정성에도 문제를 일으킨다. 하천의 안정성과 수생태계 보존을 위해서는 수제와 같은 인공 구조물을 설치하여 하도의 안정을 유지할 수 있다. 수제는 후류에 느린 유속을 발생시켜 침식을 예방하고 제방과 하안을 보호한다. 그러나 수제 주변에서 발생하는 강한 와류는 국부 세굴을 유발하여 구조물의 안정성을 저해하기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 이동상 수리실험을 통해 수제 주변에서 발생하는 국부 세굴 및 후류에서의 하상 변동을 측정하였다. 수리실험은 길이 10 m, 폭 0.44 m, 높이 0.59 m인 수로에서 D50 = 2.98 mm인 모래를 사용하였고 하상변동은 하상이 평형상태에 이르렀을 때 물의 흐름을 멈추고 측정하였다. 실험 결과를 바탕으로 평형상태의 하상변동과 시간 변화에 따른 세굴심 변화를 도출하였다.

Evolution of tip vortex generated by a model rotor blade which has a symmetric blade section has been investigated by use of the laser doppler anemometry. Swirl and axial velocity components of tip vortex were measured by the phase averaging technique within one revolution of a rotor blade. It was found that tip vortex becomes matured until 27 degrees and diffuses afterwards with diffusing rate becoming slower compared to the case of the asymmetric blade section, but the tip loss was expected to become more substantial. Swirl velocity components were well fit to n=2 model of Vatistas within measured wake ages, showing the self-similarity exists for the swirl velocity components. The axial components were followed with Gaussian profiles, but had much higher peak values than those of the symmetric blade section.

일반적으로 하천은 상류에서 하류로 흐르지만, 하구에서 일어나는 해안으로부터의 염수의 역류 혹은 상류에서 홍수 발생 시 순간적으로 나타나는 역류 등 주 흐름을 거스르는 흐름이 종종 발생하는데 이는 예상치 못한 피해를 가져올 수 있으므로 최대한 방지해야 한다. 즉, 양방향 흐름이 일어나는 지역을 단방향 흐름으로 바꿔줄 수 있는 수리 구조물의 설치가 필요하다. 역방향 흐름을 제어하는 대표적인 예로는 보가 있는데, 보는 충분한 수위 확보뿐만 아니라 하구에서 역류하는 해수를 방지하는 역할도 한다. 다만, 상류와 하류를 수직적으로 분리함에 따라 물고기의 자유로운 이동을 제한하는 등 생태계를 단절시키는 부작용이 나타날 뿐만 아니라, 최근 정부의 정책에 따라 세종보, 죽산보 등의 보 해체 결정이 이루어지면서 이를 대체할 방안이 필요하다. 따라서 이번 연구에서는 수직적인 구조물이 아닌 수평적인 수리 구조물을 고안함으로써 생태계에 큰 영향을 주지 않으면서 가장 효과적으로 양방향 흐름을 제어할 수 있는 구조물 설계 모형을 탐구해보았다. 구조물 설계 아이디어는 심장의 판막에서 고안하였다. 판막은 특정한 방향성을 갖는 구조로 이루어져 있으면서 혈액의 역류를 방지하는 기관으로, 비슷한 방식으로 하천에도 특정 각도를 갖는 구조물의 설치를 통해 단방향 흐름을 유도할 수 있다고 판단하였다. 실제 하천 규모에서의 실험은 불가능하다고 판단, 전산 유체 프로그램 OpenFOAM을 이용하여 가상 수로의 모델링을 진행하였다. 얇은 판 형태의 흐름 제어 구조물을 수로 측면에 각각 설치 후, 같은 조건에서 정방향 흐름과 역방향 흐름에 대해 각각 시뮬레이션을 진행하였다. 이때, 두 흐름의 하류 유량 크기의 차이를 단방향 흐름을 정량화하는 수치로 산정한다. 시뮬레이션은 구조물과 흐름 방향이 이루는 각도, 구조물의 개수 및 간격, 구조물의 비대칭성 등 여러 가지 조건을 바꿔가면서 진행하고, 유속 분포 및 후류의 크기 등의 수리학적 현상을 파악하여 계산 결과를 분석한다. 분석 결과를 바탕으로 하류의 유량 차이가 가장 크게 나타나는 수리 구조물의 조건을 결정하고, 해당 구조물의 실제 적용 가능 여부를 판단한다.
