In this study, the surface heat transfer coefficient of the 3D model of a thruster regulator in the high temperature and high pressure environment was estimated using the commercial CFD code. The thermal barrier coating (TBC) on the surface of the thruster regulator was modeled and the effect of the thickness of the TBC on the temperature of the thruster regulator was investigated. The thickness of the TBC was varied from $100{\mu}m$ to $500{\mu}m$. Results showed that the temperature of the surface and the inside the thruster regulator was lower for the thicker TBC case.

A CFD-based design method for transonic axial compressor blades was developed based on three-dimensional Navier-Stokes flow physics. The method employs a sectional three-dimensional (S3D) analysis concept where the three-dimensional flow analysis is performed on the grid plane of a span station with spanwise flux components held fixed. The S3D analysis produced flow solutions nearly identical to those of three-dimensional analysis, regardless of the initialization of the flow field. The sectional design based on the S3D analysis can include three-dimensional effects of compressor flows and thus overcome the deficiencies associated with the use of quasi-three-dimensional flow physics in conventional sectional design. The S3D design was first used in the inverse triode to find the geometry that produces a specified target pressure distribution. The method was also applied to optimize the adiabatic efficiency of the blade sections of Rotor 37. A new blade was constructed with the optimized sectional geometries at several span stations and its aerodynamic performance was evaluated with three-dimensional analyses.

Recently, the frequency of unexpecting heavy rains has been increased due to abnormal climate and extreme rainfall. There was a limit to analyze 1D or 2D stream flow that was applied simple momentum equation and fixed energy conservation. Therefore, hydrodynamics flow analysis in rivers has been needed 3D numerical analysis for correct stream flow interpretation. In this study, CFD model on FLOW-3D was applied to stream flow analysis, which solves three dimenson RANS(Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes Equation) control equation to find out physical behavior and the effect of hydraulic structures. Numerical simulation accomplished those results was compared by using turbulence models such as ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$, RNG ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ and LES. Those numerical analysis results have been illustrated by the turbulence energy effects, velocity of flow distributions, water level pressure distributions and eddy flows around the piers at Jangwall bridge in urbarn stream.

The present study provides numerical simulations to predict the added resistance and ship motion of the KVLCC2 in regular waves using the unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) and 3-D potential methods. This numerical analysis is focused on added resistance and vertical ship motions (heave and pitch) under a wide range of wave conditions at three ship speeds (design, operating and zero speeds). Firstly, the characteristics of the CFD and 3-D potential flow methods are presented to predict added resistance and ship motions in regular waves taking into account various wave conditions at design speed to provide a validation study as well as at operating and zero speeds. Secondly, analyses of added resistance and ship motion with unsteady wave patterns and time history results as simulated by CFD were performed at each ship speed. Systematic validation and verifications of the numerical computations in this study were made against available Experimental Fluid Dynamics (EFD) data including grid convergence tests to demonstrate that reliable numerical results were obtained for the prediction of added resistance and ship motion in waves. Relationships between added resistance, vertical motion and changes in ship speeds were also found.

Role of the perforated pipe is to drain the water with equal pressure and velocity through the holes of perforated pipe. The perforated pipe is being used in many processes of water treatment system, however, the design parameter of perforated pipe is not standardized in korea. In this study, we have found the design parameter of perforated pipe in the water treatment system using the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The uniformity of outflow from the perforated pipe is directly affected according to area ratio(gross area of holes/surface area of the perforated pipe). In other words, the uniformity of outflow is improved as area ratio is smaller. Also, at the same area ratio, the uniformity of outflow is improved as number of holes is increase. Specially, in case of the two holes per length of pipe diameter(2/D) shows the most uniformity of outflow and the best hydraulic with the smaller pressure drop. The uniformity of outflow is aggravated and the pressure drop of pipe is decrease as length of pipe is longer. In case of that pipe length is 10m and above, the pressure drop decreased about 30% when diameter ratio is 40% with 0.2% of area ratio by comparison with 0.1% of area ratio.

The developing Smart UAV in KARI supposes high speed flight as like a conventional plane, as well as vertical takeoff and landing as like a helicopter. Therefore, the air intake system should be designed to provide the sufficient air flow to the engine and the maximum possible total pressure recovery at the engine intake screen over a wide range of flight conditions. For this purpose, we designed the intake system using a pilot type intake model and plenum chamber In this paper, we designed the intake model and analyzed the performance of designed intake system using the general-purpose commercial CFD code, CFD-ACE+ For 3-D calculation, we generated mesh using the unstructured gird and used $\kappa-\epsilon$ turbulence model. The analysis results of the total pressure variation and the velocity distribution was illustrated in this paper. The pressure recovery and distortion coefficient at a plane coincident with the compressor inlet were calculated and streamline variation through the intake system was investigated at the worst condition as well as the standard flight condition.

Flow force is the additional unbalanced force acting on the valve spool by fluid flow, excluding the static pressure force that is offset on the spool land wall at the same magnitude. When designing the valve spool, it is assumed that the same average value of static pressure is applied to the inlet and outlet spool land wall in one chamber. However, the high velocity of the fluid flow by the inlet or outlet metering orifice creates unbalanced pressure distribution and generates additional force in the opposite direction to that of the solenoid attraction force. This flow force has a negative effect on the control performance of the EPPR valve, which needs to develop uniform output pressure along the entire spool control range. In this study, we developed a 3D model of the EPPR valve and conducted flow force characteristic analysis using CFD S/W (ANSYS FLUENT). The alleviated flow force model was derived by adjusting the design parameters of the spool notch.

This paper presents a comprehensive simulation and assessment of gas dispersion above sea from a subsea release using a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) approach. A 3D CFD model is established to evaluate the behavior of flammable gas above sea, and a jack-up drilling platform is included to illustrate the effect of flammable gas cloud on surface vessels. The simulations include a matrix of scenarios for different surface release rates, distances between surface gas pool and offshore platform, and wind speeds. Based on the established model, the development process of flammable gas cloud above sea is predicted, and the dangerous area generated on offshore platform is assessed. Additionally, the effect of some critical factors on flammable gas dispersion behavior is analyzed. The simulations produce some useful outputs including the detailed parameters of flammable gas cloud and the dangerous area on offshore platform, which are expected to give an educational reference for conducting a prior risk assessment and contingency planning.

국내 저온저장고의 주류를 이루고 있는 컨테이너 박스형 저온저장고의 문제점은 재래식 제어방식으로 인한 성능저하 외에도 자체 구조적인 설계상의 문제점을 가지고 있다 이러한 구조적인 문제점을 열거하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 한 축 방향에 설치되어있는 유니트 쿨러에서 토출되는 냉기에 의해 저장고 내의 공기를 냉각하는 형태이기 때문에 냉기의 분포가 고르지 못하여 균일한 온도 분포를 이루기 어렵다는 단점을 가지고있다. 둘째, 한 축 방향에서 토출되는 냉기가 맞은 편 벽면까지 도달해야 하기 때문에 풍속이 강해야 하며 이로 인해 저장 청과물이 냉해를 쉽게 입고 심한 증산작용에 의해 쉽게 표면건조나 중량감소를 가져온다. 셋째, 천장부와 측벽부가 90$^{\circ}$의 경사각을 가지고 있어 공기의 유동이 원활하지 못하여 에디현상으로 인한 온도나 풍속의 불균일 구간을 피해서 청과물을 저장해야 하기 때문에 그만큼 버려지는 공간이 많아 비경제적이다. 넷째, 위와 같은 문제점들 때문에 중ㆍ대형의 저온저장고를 컨테이너 박스형으로 설비 할 경우 보다 심한 온도 불균일과 냉기유동 분포를 보여 경제적인 손실이 더 커지게 되는 악순환을 낳게된다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 국내 저온저장고의 구조적인 설계상의 문제점을 인식하고 이를 해결하고자 3차원 CFD 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 저온저장고의 새로운 모델을 설계하였다. 이론 바탕으로 직접 저온저장고의 시작기를 개발하여 저장고 내부의 역 유동과 난류유통을 해석하였다.
