A numerical procedure for determining the airfoil shape that maximizes the lift is presented. The structure of the flow field is calculated by iteratively coupling potential flow and boundary analysis using the viscous-inviscid interaction method. The potential flow field is obtained by the vortex panel method and boundary layer flow is analyzed by means of integral approximation method which is capable of handling the laminar, transition and turbulent flow regimes. As the result of this study, it is found that the calculated flow regimes have good agreement with the existing experimented data. Davidon-Fletcher-Powell method and Augmented Lagrange Multiplier method are used for the optimal techniques. NACA 23012, NACA 65-3-21, NACA 64-2-415, NACA 64-2-A215 airfoils are used for determining the optimal airfoil shapes as a basic and compensate airfoils. Optimal design showed that the lift coefficients are increased by 17.4% at M$_{0}$=0.2 and 29% at M$_{0}$=0.3, compared with those of basic airfoil.oil.

Cooling characteristics using convection and conduction heat transfer in a parallel channel with extruding heat sources are studied numerically. A two-dimensional model has been developed for numerical prediction of transient, compressible, viscous, laminar flow, and conjugate heat transfer between parallel plates with uniform block heat sources. The finite volume method is used to solve this problem. The considered assembly consists of two channels formed by two covers and one PCB which has three uniform heat source blocks. Five different cooling methods are considered to find efficient cooling method in a given geometry and heat source. The velocity and temperature fields, local temperature distribution along surface of blocks, and the maximum temperature in each block are obtained.

The high-order numerical method based on the adaptive mesh refinement(AMR) on the quadrilateral unstructured grids has been developed in this paper. This adaptive-grid method, originally developed with MUSCL-TVD scheme, is now extended to the WENO (weighted essentially no-oscillatory) scheme with the Runge-Kutta time integration of fifth order in spatial and temporal accuracy. The multidimensional interpolation was studied in the preliminary research, which allows us to maintain the same order of accuracy for the computation of numerical flux between two adjacent cells of different levels. Some standard benchmark tests are done to validate this method for checking the overall capacity and efficiency of the present adaptive-grid technique.

Aparallel computing environment was constructed based on Windows 2000 operating system. This cluster was configured using Fast-Ethernet system to hold up together the clients within a network domain. For the parallel computation, MPI implements for Windows such as MPICH.NT.1.2.2 and MP-MPICHNT.1.2 were used with Compaq Visual Fortran compiler which produce a well optimized executives for x86 systems. The evaluation of this cluster performance was carried out using a preconditioned Navier-Stokes code for the 2D analysis of a compressible and viscous flow around a compressor blade. The parallel performance was examined in comparison with those of Linux clusters studied previously by changing a number of processors, problem size and MPI libraries. The result from the test problems presents that parallel performance of the low cost Fast-Ethernet Windows cluster is superior to that of a Linux cluster of similar configuration and is comparable to that of a Myrinet cluster.

For the analysis of compressible flow with real gas effect, characteristic form of Roe's Riemann solver was derived again using real gas equation of state and variable specific heal and it was extended to multi component reactive system. From this study, it is known that some correction should be made for the use of existing numerical algorithm. 1) Sonic speed and characteristic variable should be corrected with real gas effect. 2) Roe's average was applicable only with the assumption of constant properties. 3) Artificial damping term and characteristic variables should be corrected but their influence may not be significant.

With the development of micro electronic circuits and optical equipment, the demand for developing smart munitions with the ability to autonomously search for and attack targets has increased. Since the electronic components within smart munitions are affected by high temperatures, pressure, and impulsive forces upon the combustion of gunpowder, stability and reliability need to be secured for them. Securing those stability and reliability requires soft recovery system which can decelerate smart munitions. A theoretical analysis of flow is performed for the secure recovery of bullets on the basis of Navier-Stokes equation for compressible fluids. The inner pressure on a pressure tube, the speeds of bullets, and the deceleration of munitions are calculated theoretically. Theoretical results are compared with the data from the experiment with soft recovery system set up at the laboratory.

An axisymmetric compressible flow solver accounting for chemical equilibrium has been developed as an analysis tool exclusively suitable for performance prediction and optimum contour design of LRE thrust chamber. By virtue of several features focusing on user-friendliness and effectiveness including automatical grid generation and iterative calculations with changes in design parameters prescribed through only one keyword-type input file, a design engineer can evaluate very fast and easily the influences of various design inputs such as geometrical parameters and operating conditions on propulsive performance. Validations have been carried out for various aspects by detailed comparisons with the result of CEA code, experimental data of JPL nozzle, actual data for two historical engines, and ReTF data for KSR-III.

This paper describes the aerodynamic interference characteristics between the ing and the engines in a commercial airplane which is realized by reverse engineering based on the photo measurement. Steady three-dimensional compressible inviscid Euler equation is solved in the unstructured grid system under the cruise condition. The lift and drag forces in the wing with engines increase by 1.49% and 3.9%, respectively compared with the wing without engines.

The pressure-transient on platform screen doors in side platforms caused by passing trains with various operating conditions have been investigated numerically. The transient compressible three-dimensional flow simulations are performed with actual operating conditions of two trains by adopting moving mesh technique. To achieve more realistic results, the detailed shape of train and the subway station including tunnels connecting the adjacent stations are represented in the computational domain. Numerical analyses are carried out for cases considering arriving/passing/departing train with or without train stopped on the opposite track, and both trains on the move in opposite direction. From the numerical results, the maximum pressure on the platform screen doors, which is predicted in the case of two passing trains, satisfied the design standards for similar stations.
