75톤급 터보펌프를 대상으로 한 속도복합형 터빈과 설계회전수를 50% 증가시킨 30톤급 터보펌프 터빈 적용을 위한을 압력복합형 터빈 설계를 수행하였다. 속도복합형 터빈의 경우 1차원설계-유동해석-1차원설계의 반복적인 설계과정을 통해 원형노즐을 적용한 2열 초음속 충동터빈의 특성을 파악하였으며 최종적으로 기본형인 1열 충동형 터빈 대비 비출력 23.1% 향상, 무게 5% 감소된 ver. 14h 모델을 완성하였다. 압력복합형 터빈은 에너지 회수 비율, 2단 노즐 출구각, 2단 노즐 누설유량, 단별 출력 비율 등의 새로운 인자의 고려하여 각 변수의 성능에 미치는 영향을 검토하였으며 1차원 해석 기준 비출력이 36%가 증대되고 무게는 51% 감소한 터빈을 설계하였다. 압력복합형 터빈의 높은 성능을 위해서는 1단 및 2단 노즐의 형상설계가 매우 중요할 것으로 판단되며 유동해석을 통해 최적화할 예정이다.

선형 캐스케이드 실험장치에서 블레이드간에 주기조건을 만족하면서 적은 개수의 블레이드를 적용하는 것은 실험의 정확도 향상뿐만 아니라 실험수행에 여러 장점을 제공한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 유로를 캐스케이드 피치의 두 배 넓이로 설정하고 두 개의 블레이드만을 설치하였을 때 주기조건이 얻어지도록 하는 벽면의 형상설계에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위하여 주기조건에서 얻어진 블레이드 표면에서의 마하수와 동일한 결과가 얻어지도록 목적함수를 설정하였으며, 설계변수로는 벽면의 형상과 관련이 있는 12개의 변수를 선정하였다. 벽면의 설계를 위하여 기울기 기반의 최적화법을 사용하였으며, 목적함수에 민감한 변화를 나타내는 영역의 조정과 가중치를 사용하였다. 이러한 방식으로 얻어진 결과에서 주기조건과 동일한 유동특성이 얻어질 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The cross flow turbine is economical because of its simple structure. For remote rural region, there are needs for a more simple structure and very low head cross flow turbines. However, in this kind of locations, the water from upstream always flows into the turbine with some other materials such as sand and pebble. These materials will be damage to the runner blade and shorten the turbine lifespan. Therefore, there is a need to develop a new type of cross flow turbine for the remote rural region where there is availability of abundant resources. The new design of the cross flow turbine has an inlet open duct, without guide vane and nozzle to simplify the structure. However, the turbine with inlet open duct and very low head shows relatively low efficiency. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to optimize the shape of the turbine inlet to improve the efficiency, and investigate the internal flow of a very low head cross flow turbine. There are two steps to optimize the turbine inlet shape. Firstly, by changing the turbine open angle along with changing the turbine inlet open duct bottom line (IODBL) location to investigate the internal flow. Secondly, keeping the turbine IODBL location at the maximum efficiency achieved at the first step, and changing the turbine IODBL angle to improve the performance. The result shows that there is a 7.4% of efficiency improvement by optimizing turbine IODBL location (open angle), and there is 0.3% of efficiency improvement by optimizing the turbine IODBL angle.

가스터빈엔진의 가장 핵심 부품인 디스크와 블레이드는 고온, 고압축비, 고속 회전이라는 가혹한 환경에서 지속적으로 운용된다. 이러한 가혹한 환경과 디스크와 블레이드가 가지는 큰 회전 에너지로 인해 디스크 및 블레이드에 의해 유발되는 파손은 항공기 손상 혹은 탑승자의 피해로 이어지는 재해적 고장 혹은 한계 고장으로 이어진다. 그러므로 디스크와 블레이드의 구조적 건전성의 마진을 충분히 확보하기 위해서 본 연구에서는 디스크의 취약 부위인 도브테일의 형상을 최적화하고, 그 해의 강건성을 확인하기 위해 치수 공차와 피로 수명의 산포와 같은 불확실성에 대하여 신뢰도 해석을 수행하고자 한다. 이 결과를 통해 결정론적 방법인 최적설계의 필요성과 함께 한계를 확인하고, 향후 신뢰도 기반 최적설계의 필요성을 인지하고자 한다. 이를 위해 비선형 열-구조 연성해석과 접촉 해석을 포함한 유한요소해석을 수행하였다.

Aeroacoustic characteristics of sirocco fan used in Over-The-Range (OTR) has been analyzed in this paper. A microwave hood combination over the gas range is short for the OTR. The flow phenomena of the double-sided sirocco fan was analyzed numerically and experimentally by using commercial code and three dimensional PIV for flow visualization. Also, microphone array is used in order to understand acoustic characteristics of OTR. Two dimensional unsteady flow and acoustic simulation is tried to qualitatively estimate the effects of tonal noise and broadband noise on the overall sound pressure level. It is found that tonal sound is generated from the strong interaction between the impeller and cutoff while broadband sound is generated from the strong secondary flows along the scroll surface. To reduce the noise level, the V-shape cut-off was applied to improve the sound quality by reducing tonal noise. So the peak noise at BPF (Blade Passing Frequency) was almost reduced. The shape of flow-guide to suppress the secondary flow over the scroll surface was carefully checked. It is found that this affects flow pattern at the fan exit and reduces the broad band noise. Through this numerical and experimental study, the sound pressure level was lowered by 4dBA compared to that of the previous fan at the operating point.

This paper is to compare by numerical analysis the flow characteristics and propulsion performance of stern with the shape change of K-duct, a pre-swirl duct developed by Korea Research Institute of Ships & Ocean Engineering (KRISO). First, the characteristics of the propeller and the resistance and self-propulsion before and after the attachment of the K-duct to the ship were verified and the validity of the calculation method was confirmed by comparing this result with the model test results. After that, resistance and self-propulsion calculations were performed by the same numerical method when the K-duct was changed into five different shapes. The efficiency of the other five cases was compared using the delivery horsepower in the model scale and the flow characteristics of the stern were analyzed as the velocity and pressure distributions in the area between the duct end and the propeller plane. For the computation, STAR-CCM +, a general-purpose flow analysis program, was used and the Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations were applied. Rigid Body Motion (RBM) method was used for the propeller rotating motion and SST $k-{\omega}$ turbulence model was applied for the turbulence model. As a result, the tangential velocity of the propeller inflow changed according to the position angle change of the stator, and the pressure of the propeller hub and the cap changes. This regulated the propeller hub vortex. It was confirmed that the vortex of the portion where the fixed blade and the duct meet was reduced by blunt change.

The cooling unit of the industrial showcase consists of a compressor, a condenser and an evaporator. An axial fan is used to circulate the air to improve the efficiency of the heat exchanger. In the past, aluminum fans have been used, which have problems such as low performance, efficiency, high failure rate, and high noise. This study is to develop high performance, high efficiency plastic fan replacing aluminum fan. A major factor in determining the performance and noise of an axial fan is the angle and cross-sectional shape of the blade, which is suitable for raising the lift force, thereby controlling the vortex, which is the main cause of noise and performance degradation. In order to produce a high efficiency injection molded fan, it is necessary to develop a mold that minimizes the deformation of the injection process for the designed shape. In this study, we developed a high efficiency, low noise plastic injection fan with more than 11% performance improvement and noise reduction compared to conventional aluminum fan.

As an important device in the nuclear island, the nuclear coolant pump can continuously provide power for medium circulation. The vane is one of the stationary parts in the nuclear coolant pump, which is installed between the impeller and the casing. The shape of the vane plays a significant role in the pump's overall performance and stability which are the important indicators during the safety serve process. Hence, the bionic concept is firstly applied into the design process of the vane to improve the performance of the nuclear coolant pump. Taking the scaled high-performance hydraulic model (on a scale of 1:2.5) of the coolant pump as the reference, a united bionic design approach is proposed for the unique structure of the guide vane of the nuclear coolant pump. Then, a new optimization design platform is established to output the optimal bionic vane. Finally, the comparative results and the corresponding mechanism are analyzed. The conclusions can be gotten as: (1) four parameters are introduced to configure the shape of the bionic blade, the significance of each parameter is herein demonstrated; (2) the optimal bionic vane is successfully obtained by the optimization design platform, the efficiency performance and the head performance of which can be improved by 1.6% and 1.27% respectively; (3) when compared to the original vane, the optimized bionic vane can improve the inner flow characteristics, namely, it can reduce the flow loss and decrease the pressure pulsation amplitude; (4) through the mechanism analysis, it can be found out that the bionic structure can induce the spanwise velocity and the vortices, which can reduce drag and suppress the boundary layer separation.
