As distinct from a slender body, the separation of the boundary layer on a bluff body give rise to complex wakes in which various kinds of vortices form, develop and interact with each other. In this paper, we investigate cavitation wake field behind wedge shaped two-dimensional fin models. Eight different models are tested at the Chungnam National University Cavitation Tunnel (CNU-CT). First, we measure wake cavity shapes and compare with numerical results, which shows the good agreement with each other. In addition, we demonstrate that wake flow characteristics of the control fin are clearly identified by the correlation analysis of high-speed camera images and pressure fluctuation measurements.

This study analyzes the nonlinear interaction between two different vortex shedding frequencies from a cylinder with two diameters. In particular, two different vortex shedding frequencies are generated by preparing a cylinder having two diameters artificially. Flow velocity fluctuations behind the cylinder are measured three-dimensionally. Additionally, we fabricated a hole and placed a pressure transducer for measuring the pressure on the cylinder surface. The pressure signal from the pressure transducer is used as basic signal. A TSC(Trans Spectrum Coherence) is used for checking the strength of the nonlinear interaction between two different vortex shedding frequencies. As a result, the following are clarified: i) frequency distribution behind the cylinder, ii) three-dimensional flow state behind the cylinder through calculation of ensemble average, and iii) close relationship between the vertical vortex and change of low frequency by nonlinear interaction between two different vortex shedding frequencies from the cylinder with two diameters.

A new stereoscopic PIV is developed using two CCD cameras, stereoscopic photogrammetry, and a 3D-PTV principle. The wake of a circular cylinder is measured by the developed stereoscopic PIV technique. The B mode vortical structure of the wake over the Reynolds number 300 is clearly seen by the developed technique. The arrangement of the two cameras is based on angular position. The calibration of cameras and the pair-matching of the three-dimensional velocity vectors are based on 3D-PTV technique.

A new stereoscopic PIV has been constructed using two CCD cameras, stereoscopic photogrammetry, and 3D-PTV principle. The capability of the developed stereoscopic PIV was verified through a test on the Standard Images which are provided on the website of VSJ. The arrangement of the two cameras was based on angular position For the acquisition of 3D velocity vectors, 2D velocity vectors were obtained using the gray-level cross-correlation method from the two camera images and they were matched stereoscopically. The wake of a circular cylinder was measured and turbulent properties were presented.

A stereoscopic PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry) technique was employed to measure the 3 dimensional flow structure of turbulent wake behind a marine propeller with 5 blades. The out-of-plane velocity component was determined using two CCD cameras with the angular displacement configuration. Four hundred instantaneous velocity fields were measured for each of four different blade phases and ensemble averaged to investigate the spatial evolution of the propeller wake in the near-wake region from the trailing edge to one propeller diameter(D) downstream. The phase-averaged velocity fields show the potential wake and the viscous wake developed along the blade surfaces. Tip vortices were generated periodically and the slipstream contraction occurs in the near-wake region. The out-of-plane velocity component and strain rate have large values at the locations of tip and trailing vortices. As the flow goes downstream, the turbulence intensity, the strength of tip vortices and the magnitude of out-of-plane velocity component at trailing vortices are decreased due to viscous dissipation, turbulence diffusion and blade-to-blade interaction.

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.

마하수 4일때 초음속 풍동의 벽면과 모델지지부의 간섭에 관해 연구하였다. 특히 모델지지부 주위에서의 충격파 형성과 sting, strut 그리고 second throat에서의 반사 충격파의 상호 작용에 연구의 촛점을 두었다. 수치 기법은 내재적 플럭스 차분 분할기법 (implicit flux-difference splitting technique)을 사용하였다. 2차원과 3차원 유동해석 결과로부터 모델지지부 후류의 유동에 미치는 diffuser 출구 경계조건의 영향을 알아보았다.

A study on the dynamic ground effect on three-dimensional wings is done using an indirect boundary element method(unsteady panel method). An integral equation is obtained by applying Green's theorem on all surfaces of the fluid domain. Constant strength dipole and source panels arc distributed on a wing's surface. The wake sheet is represented by constant strength dipoles. At each time step, a row of wake panels is assumed to be convected from the trailing edge of the wing. The tip vortex behind wings in dynamic ground effect moves outward. The amplitudes of the aerodynamic coefficients for the wings in dynamic ground effect are augmented much more comparing to the case in static ground effect.

A change of three-dimensional vortical structures on the wake behind a road vehicle has been investigated according to the existence of an air spoiler. To reconstruct the three-dimensional velocity fields, two-dimensional PIV(particle image velocimetry) measurements were performed for lots of the x-y, y-z and z-x planes. Since the isovorticity surface does not represent exactly the vortical structures within the recirculation region due to strong shear flows, the velocity component normal to the x-y plane is obtained by interpolating those velocities in the z-x plane. Then, the ${\lambda}_2-definition$ is applied to visualize the vortices in the recirculation region. As a result, it is found that the air spoiler weakens C-pillar vortices and produces strong wing-tip vortices. Inside the recirculation region, the height and volume of coherent vortices are increased relatively when an air spoiler is equipped. On the other hand, two small coherent vortices are observed in case that an air spoiler is absent.

The effect of tip clearance height on the three-dimensional flow and aerodynamic loss in the wake region of a high-turning turbine rotor cascade has been investigated with a miniature cone-type five-hole probe. Distributions of velocity magnitude, secondary velocity vectors, and total-pressure loss coefficient are presented for three tip gap-to-span ratios of h/s = 0.0, 0.5 and 1.0 percent. The result shows that with the increment of h/s, tip leakage vortex tends to be intensified and aerodynamic loss due to the leakage vortex is increased as well. In the case of h/s = 1.0 percent, aerodynamic loss in the tip-leakage flow region is found dominant in comparison with that in the passage vortex region. With increasing h/s, mass-averaged secondary loss coefficient has a greater portion in the mass-averaged total-pressure loss coefficient.
