A noise prediction method of axial flow fan is developed by incorporating through-flow method and vortex shedding noise model. Fan noise is assumed to be generated due to the pressure fluctuation induced by wake vortices of fan blades and radiate as diploe distribution. The wake vortices are analyzed by combining Karman vortex street model and through-flow analysis results, and the vortex-induced fluctuating pressure on blade surface is calculated by thin airfoil theory. The predicted sound pressure levels and directivity patterns of fan noise by the present method are favorably compared with fan noise test data. Furthermore, the present method is shown to be very useful for predicting the aero-acoustic performance map of the fan operated at off-design point.

A large eddy simulation (LES) is performed for turbulent pipe flow. The simulation code is constructed by using a general coordinate system based on the physical contravariant velocity components. The effects of grid fineness which can be well prediction of turbulent behavior in near wall region is investigated. The subgrid scale turbulent models are applied and validated emphasis is placed on the flow details of turbulent pipe flow The calculated Reynolds number is 360 based on the wall shear velocity and the inlet pipe diameter. The predicted turbulent statistics are evaluated by comparing with the DNS data of turbulent pipe flow Performed by Eggels et al. The agreement of LES with DNS data is shown to be satisfactory. The proper grid fineness of the well prediction of turbulent pipe flow is suggested and the turbulent behavior is analyzed by depict the contour plot of fluctuating velocity components.

Excitation mechanism of interference effect between two tall buildings is investigated with wind tunnel experiments. Synchronized building surface pressure and flow field measurements by particle image velocimetry (PIV) are conducted to explore the relationship between the disturbed wind flow field and the consequent wind load modification for twin buildings in tandem. This reveals evident excitation mechanisms for the fluctuating across-wind loads on the buildings. For small distance (X/D < 3) between two buildings, the disturbed flow pattern of impaired vortex shedding is observed and the fluctuating across-wind load on the downstream building decreases. For larger distance ($X/D{\geq}3$), strong correlation between the across-wind load of the downstream building and the oscillation of the wake of the upstream building is found. By further analysis with conditional sampling and phase-averaged techniques, the coherent flow structures in the building gap are clearly observed and the wake oscillation of the upstream building is confirmed to be the reason of the magnified across-wind force on the downstream building. For efficient PIV measurement, the experiments use a square-section high-rise building model with geometry scale smaller than the usual value. Interference factors for all three components of wind loads on the building models being surrounded by another identical building with various configurations are measured and compared with those from previous studies made at large geometry scale. The results support that for interference effect between buildings with sharp corners, the length scale effect plays a minor role provided that the minimum Reynolds number requirement is met.

Decades of studies of geophysical flow have unveiled that the flow downstream of obstacles in stratified flow consists of attached wake and strong gravity waves, or separated, fluctuating wake and persistent late wakes. Among unique and interesting characteristics of the stratified flow past obstacles is the generation of coherent vortex in the late wake far downstream of the object. Unlike in homogeneous fluid, the flow field downstream self-develops coherent vortex even after diminishing of the near wake, no matter how small the stratification is. This paper present a computational approach to simulate the generation of the coherent vortex structure in the late wake of a moving sphere submerged in weakly stratified fluid. The results are in consistent with several experimental observations and the vortex stretching mechanism is employed to explain the process of coherence.

Developed is a computer program for the prediction of the aero-acoustic performance characteristics such as discharge pressure, efficiency, power and noise level in the basic design step of axial flow fan. The flow field and the aerodynamic performance of fan are analyzed by using the streamline curvature computing scheme with total pressure loss and flow deviation models. Fan noise is assumed to be generated due to the pressure fluctuations induced by wake vortices of fan blades and to radiate via dipole distribution. The vortex-induced fluctuating pressure on blade surface is calculated by combining thin airfoil theory and the predicted flow field data. The predicted aerodynamic performances, sound pressure level and noise directivity patterns of fan by the present computer program are favorably compared with the test data of actual fan. Furthermore, the present computer program is shown to be very useful in optimizing design variables of fan with high efficiency and low noise level and in analyzing their design sensitivities.

Experiments were conducted in a large-scale Ward-type tornado simulator to study tornado-like vortices. Both flow velocities and the pressures at the surface beneath the vortices were measured. An interpretation of these measurements enabled an assessment of the mean flow field as well as the mean and fluctuating characteristics of the surface pressure deficit, which is a manifestation of the flow fluctuation aloft. An emphasis was placed on the effect of the aspect ratio of the tornado simulator on the characteristics of the simulated flow and the corresponding surface pressure deficit, especially the evolution of these characteristics due to the transition of the flow from a single-celled vortex to a two-celled vortex with increasing swirl ratio.

A numerical investigation on forces and flow around three square cylinders in side-by-side arrangement is conducted at a Reynolds number Re = 150 with the cylinder center-to-center spacing ratio L/W = 1.1 ~ 9.0, where W is the cylinder side width. The flowat this Re is assumed to be two-dimensional, incompressible, and Newtonian. The flow simulation is conducted by using ANSYS-Fluent. The flow around the three side-by-side cylinders entails some novel flow physics, involving the interaction between the gap and free-stream side flows as well as that between the two gap flows. An increase in L/W from 1.1 to 9.0 leads to five distinct flow regimes, viz., base-bleed flow (L/W < 1.4), flip-flopping flow (1.4 < L/W < 2.1), symmetrically biased beat flow (2.1 < L/W < 2.6), non-biased beat flow (2.6 < L/W < 7.25) and weak interaction flow (7.25 < L/W < 9.0). The gap flow behaviors, time-averaged and fluctuating fluid forces, time-averaged pressure, recirculation bubble, formation length, and wake width in each flow regime are discussed in detail.

본 논문에서는 식생된 개수로 흐름의 수치모의에 필요한 항력가중계수의 영향을 분석하였다. 이를 위해 시간 및 공간 평균기법을 이용하여 식생된 개수로 흐름에서 레이놀즈응력의 수송방정식을 유도하였다. 그 결과 총 레이놀즈응력은 시간의 변동 성분에 의한 레이놀즈응력과 공간상의 변동 성분에 의한 레이놀즈응력의 합이며, 총 레이놀즈응력의 수송방정식을 수치모의하기 위한 항력가중계수의 값은 $C_{fk}$ = 1.0인 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 시간의 변동 성분에 의한 레이놀즈응력을 수치모의하기 위해서는 거의 영에 가까운 항력가중계수를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 과거의 수치모의 연구에서 항력가중계수의 값이 거의 영에 가까울 때 실험결과와 잘 일치했는지에 대한 중요한 이유이다. 즉, 공간상의 변동성분에 의한 레이놀즈응력의 값은 실험을 통해 측정하기 매우 어렵기 때문에 식생된 개수로 흐름에서 측정된 레이놀즈응력은 대부분 시간상의 변동성분에 의한 레이놀즈응력이기 때문이다. 또한 레이놀즈응력모형을 이용하여 항력가중계수에 따른 식생된 개수로 흐름을 수치모의하고 기존의 실험 결과와 비교하였다. 그 결과 평균유속과 레이놀즈응력의 경우 항력가중계수의 영향은 작은 것으로 나타났으나, 난류강도 분포에서는 항력가중계수의 영향이 매우 크게 발생하였다. 또한 총 레이놀즈응력과 시간의 변동성분에 의한 레이놀즈응력의 수송방정식에서 각 항의 수지분석을 통하여 항력가중계수가 난류강도에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다.

An experimental study of decaying swirl air flow has been obtained by tangential inlet in a straight tube with Reynolds number range 20,000~40,000. The friction factor, swirl angle, velocity profiles and turbulent intensity are measured by using micro-manometer and hot-wire anemometer. It is found that the swirl flow behaviors depend on the swirl intensity along the test tube.

This paper presents an extensive analysis of the short term, unsteady wind loading on a low-rise building. The building is located in a rural environment and only the specific situation of wind flow orthogonal to the long face of the structure is considered. The data is analysed using conventional analysis and less traditional methods such as conditional sampling and wavelet analysis. The nature of the flow field over the building is found to be highly unsteady and complex. Fluctuating pressures on the windward wall are shown to a large extent to be caused by the fluctuations in the upstream flow, whereas extreme pressures on the roof are as a result of high intensity small scale flow structures. On the roof of the building a significant amount of energy is shown to exist at frequencies above 1 Hz.
