In this study, a experimental work to investigate the influence of a turbulent wake flow on the velocity distribution of a diffuser with PIV method. The turbulent wake is generated by a rectangular prism, which is installed at the inlet of a diffuser. The results show that the velocity recovery of the subsonic diffuser is dependent on the height and location of rectangular prism. It is found that a certain height of the rectangular prism to generate the turbulent wake give a better velocity recovery, compared with no rectangular prism.

본 논문은 전자파 장해 및 복사 내성 측정의 대용 시험 시설로서 활용될 수 있는 전자파 잔향실의 전자기장 특성에 관한 연구이다. 잔향실 내에는 서로 다른 두 주파수 대역에서도 사용 가능한 이중 대역 확산기(diffuser)가 적용되었고, 이중 대역 확산기는 서로 다른 단일 대 역 Schroeder 방식의 QRD(Quadratic Residue Diffuser)로 합성되었다. 잔향실 내부의 전자기장 분포 해석을 위해서는 FDTD(Finite-Difference Time-Domain) 수치 해석 방식이 이용되었다. 잔향실에 사용된 이중 대역 확산기는 단일 대역 확산기에 비해 시험할 수 있는 주파수 대역 확장 뿐 아니라, 잔향실의 전자기장 균일도, 편파 특성, 전력 효율 및 공차 등의 성능을 향상시켰다. 따라서 이중 대역 확산기를 사용한 잔향실이 단일 대역 확산기를 사용한 잔향실보다 효율적인 시험시설로서 활용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

An experimental study on the performance and instability development characteristics of a centrifugal compressor equipped with a cambered variable diffuser has been performed with varying diffuser vane angles. The test was conducted at the design speed of 20,800 rpm and the 80% design speed of 16,640 rpm for 5 diffuser angles : 65$^{\circ}$, 70$^{\circ}$, 75$^{\circ}$, 77.5$^{\circ}$, 80$^{\circ}$ The steady performance test results showed that choking mass flow rate decreases and total pressure ratio increases with a narrowed surge margin as the diffuser vane angle increases. Unsteady pressures were measured using high-frequency pressure transducers at the inducer and the diffuser throat to investigate the instability phenomena such as rotating stall and surge inside the compressor. From the unsteady measurements, it is found that the transient process from rotating stall to surge was mainly affected by diffuser angles. The results of the present study can be applied to the instability control of the centrifugal compressors using a variable diffuser.

In wide angle diffuser, the cross-sectional area increases so rapidly that separation can be avoided only by using boundary layer control. In this study, an experimental and numerical study is performed on performance of a diffuser with guide damper. A series of measurements were carried out to investigate the characteristics of diffuser for different divergence angle(${\phi}=7^{\circ}, \;10.5^{\circ}\;and\; 14^{\circ}$) of guide damper and angle of ${\phi}=10.5^{\circ}$ was through to be the best among three cases. Judging from the results, guide damper can be used as an effective means of improvement for diffuser performance.

Shock wave/boundary layer interaction frequently causes the shock wave to oscillate violently and thus the global flow field to unstabilize. In order to stabilize the shock wave system in the diffuser of a supersonic wind tunnel, the present study attempted to control the shock oscillations by using a passive control. A porous wall with the porosity of 19.6% was mounted on a shallow cavity. Experiment was made by means of schlieren optical observation and wall pressure measurements. The flow Mach number just upstream the shock system and Reynolds number based on the turbulent boundary layer thickness were 2.1 and 1.8 * 10$\^$6/, respectively. The results show that the present passive control method on the shock wave/boundary layer interaction in the supersonic diffuser can significantly suppress the oscillations of shock system, especially when the shock system locates at the porous wall.

In this work, we investigate the flow velocity controllability of a diffuser-type multiple hydrofoil duct by experimental and numerical flow visualization approaches. The flow velocity controllability is analyzed by changing the angle of the hydrofoil near the outlet, which is the diffuser, while the incoming flow velocity is 0.6 m/s in the experiment. When the diffuser angle is changed from 0 to 7.5 degree, the maximum velocity inside the duct is varied from 1.35 m/s to 1.52 m/s. Also, it is shown from the numerical analysis that the maximum velocity is varied from 1.09 m/s to 1.17 m/s in the same condition. Thus, the aspect of the acceleration in the duct due to the increase of the diffuser angle is similar between the both approaches. Therefore, the multiple hydrofoil duct can be used to control the flow speed inside the duct for continuously extracting power close to a rated capacity.

New design configurations were developed based on the closed ventilation type igloo nozzle in contrast to the conventional open distribution type. To validate the enhanced performance, the prediction of the exhaust flow patterns of the igloo diffuser was carried out by both experimental and computational simulations. CFD provided detailed parametric studies that significantly reduced the amount of experimentation necessary to alter the design of existing the F-15K igloo exhaust diffuser.

The present study addresses a computational work to investigate the influence of a turbulent wake flow on the pressure recovery of a subsonic diffuser. The turbulent wake is generated by a cylinder with a small diameter, which is installed at the inlet of a 2-dimensional diffuser. Computation are applied to three-dimensional steady Navier-Stokes equations. The fully implicit finite volume scheme is used to discretize the governing equations. The computational results are qualitatively well compared to the experimental results. The results show that the pressure recovery of the subsonic diffuser is dependent on the diameter and location of cylinder. It is found that a certain diameter and location of the cylinder to generate the turbulent wake give a better pressure recovery, compared with no cylinder flow.

Supersonic ejectors are simple mechanical components, which generally perform mixing and/or recompression of two fluid streams. Ejectors have found many applications in engineering. In aerospace engineering, they are used for altitude testing of a propulsion system by reducing the pressure of a test chamber. It is composed of three major sections: a vacuum test chamber, a propulsive nozzle, and a supersonic exhaust diffuser. This paper aims at the improvement of ejector-diffuser performance by focusing attention on reducing exhaust back flow into the test chamber, since alteration of the backflow or recirculation pattern appears as one of the potential means of significantly improving low supersonic ejector-diffuser performance. The simplest backflow-reduction device was an orifice plate at the duct inlet, which would pass the jet and entrained fluid but impede the movement of fluid upstream along the wall. Results clearly showed that the performance of ejector-diffuser system was improved for certain a range of system pressure ratios, whereas the orifice plate was detrimental to the ejector performance for higher pressure ratios. It is also found that there is no change in the performance of diffuser with orifice at its inlet, in terms of its pressure recovery. Hence an appropriately sized orifice system should produce considerable improvement in the ejector-diffuser performance in the intended range of pressure ratios.

Schroeder 방식의 1 Dimension QRD(quadratic Residue Diffuser)를 사용하여 잔향실 내부에서의 필드 균일성이 향상됨을 밝힌 연구는 이미 수 차례 발표된 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 $2.3\;\cal{GHz}\~3\;\cal{GHz}$대역에서, 전자파 잔향실의 전자기장 특성 및 필드의 균일도 향상을 위해 잔향실 내에 Schroeder 방식의 CRD(Cubical Residue Diffuser)가 설계 및 적용되었고 필드 분포 해석을 위해 FDTD(Finite-Difffrence Time-Domain) 방법의 수치해석이 이루어졌다. 잔향실 내부의 확산기는 cubical residue algorithm과 2D 배열을 사용함으로써 더욱더 random한 형태를 이루었으며 결과적으로 CRD를 사용함으로써 잔향실 내에서의 편파 특성, 표준 편차 및 tolerance 등의 성능이 좋아지는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 2D CRD의 경우, 전력 효율도 높아짐을 알 수 있었다.
