Many flight bodies are essentially imposed in gradually accelerating and decelerating free streams during taking-off and landing processes. However, the wing aerodynamics occurring in such a stream have not yet been investigated in detail. The objective of the present study is to make clear the aerodynamic characteristics of an aerofoil placed in the accelerating and decelerating free stream conditions. A computational analysis is carried out to solve the unsteady, compressible, Navier-Stokes equations which are discretized using a fully implicit finite volume method. Computational results are employed to reveal the major characteristics of the aerodynamics over the gradually accelerating aerofoil wings.

The Vertical Launching System design is especially complicated by complex flow structure in a plenum with the severe thermal state and high pressure load form the hot exhaust plume. The flow structures are numerically simulated by using the commercial code, CFD-FASTRAN with the axi-symmetrical Navier-Stokes equations. Two different cases are considered; that is, the stationary fire and the moving fire.

Ballistic Range로부터 발사되는 발사체의 공기역학적 특성을 조사하기 위하여 축대칭 비정상 압축성 오일러 방정식에 이동경계법을 적용하여, 수치계산을 수행하였다. 그 결과, 발사체의 형상과 질량을 변화시켜 발사체의 순간속도, 가속도, 공기저항력을 조사한 결과, 발사 직후 발사체의 거동과 주위 유동장의 특성을 예측할 수 있었다.

Previous studies have shown that Computational Wind Engineering (CWE) is still in its infancy and has a long way to go to become truly useful to the design practitioner. The present work focuses on more recent studies to identify progress on outstanding issues and improvements in the numerical simulation of wind effects on buildings. The paper reviews wind loading and environmental effects; it finds that, in spite of some interesting and visually impressive results produced with CWE, the numerical wind tunnel is still virtual rather than real and many more parallel studies - numerical and experimental - will be required to increase the level of confidence in the computational results.

In the recent years flow around bridges are investigated using computer modeling. Selvam (1998), Selvam and Bosch (1999), Frandsen and McRobie (1999) used finite element procedures. Larsen and Walther (1997) used discrete vorticity procedure. The aeroelastic instability is a major criterion to be checked for long span bridges. If the wind speed experienced by a bridge is greater than the critical wind speed for flutter, then the bridge fails due to aeroelastic instability. Larsen and Walther (1997) computed the critical velocity for flutter using discrete vortex method similar to wind tunnel procedures. In this work, the critical velocity for flutter will be calculated directly (free oscillation procedure) similar to the approaches reported by Selvam et al. (1998). It is expected that the computational time required to compute the critical velocity using this approach may be much shorter than the traditional approach. The computed critical flutter velocity of 69 m/s is in reasonable comparison with wind tunnel measurement. The no flutter and flutter conditions are illustrated using the bridge response in time.

The selection of the optimal position of the flap was performed in order to improve the aerodynamic performance during the take-off and landing processes of aircraft. For this, the existing airfoils of the main wing and flap are selected as the baseline model and the lift coefficients (cl) according to angle of attacks (AOA) were calculated with the change of the position of flap airfoil. The objective function was defined as the consideration of the maximum cl, lift to drag ratio and cl at certain AOA. Then, at 121 experimental points within $20mm{\times}20mm$ domain, two dimensional flow simulations with Spalart-Allmaras turbulence model were performed concerning the AOA from 0 to 15 degree. If the optimal position was located at the domain boundary, the domain moved to the optimal position. These processes were iterated until the position was included in the inside of the domain. From these processes, the flow separation at low AOA was removed and cl increased linearly comparing with that of the baseline model.

The objective of the present study is to develop a new type of the Ballistic range, called 'two-stage light gas gun'. A computational work has been performed to investigate the aerodynamics of a projectile which is launched from the two-stage light gas gun. A moving coordinate method for a multi-domain technique is employed to simulate unsteady projectile flows with a moving boundary. The effect of a virtual mass is added to the axisymmetric unsteady Euler equation systems. The computed results reasonably capture the major flow characteristics which are generated in launching the projectile supersonically, such as the interaction between the shock wave and the blast wave, the interaction between the vortical flow and the barrel shock, and the steady under-expanded jet. The present computational results properly predict the velocity, acceleration, and drag histories of the projectile.

The aerodynamic performance of aircraft in icing condition can deteriorate considerably by contamination of aerodynamic and propulsive systems due to icing accretions on aircraft surfaces. A computational analysis based on the Eulerian description was performed on an airfoil to investigate effects of ice accretions on airfoil aerodynamics. A water droplet with liquid water concentration ($0.00075kg/m^3$) and mean volume diameter ($20{\mu}m$) was considered and applied to various angles of attack to investigate the stall angle decrease and the drag increment.

A computational study to capture the flow around a floor mounted greenhouse shaped HAWT model was performed using the commercial software PowerFLOW 4.2b. The simulation kernel of this software is based on the numerical scheme known as the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM), combined with an RNG turbulence model. Simulations were performed at 60 and 140 km/h free stream air speeds. Selective results from these computational simulations are presented to show the capability of this numerical approach to predict the aerodynamics and aeroacoustics characteristics of the 3-D flow field around the HAWT model.
