  • 본 연구는 무기체계 획득의 신뢰성과 연구개발의 효과를 증대하기 위한 모델링과 시뮬레이션 방법을 전산유체역학을 이용하여 연구하였다. 모델링과 시뮬레이션을 이용한 시험 평가가 무기체계의 획득에 신뢰성을 줄 수 있고, 시험에 필요한 시간과 비용의 절감, 사전에 예측하고 사후에 검증이 가능한 자료를 제공할 수 있다. 그러나 현재 우리의 무기체계 획득에서는 모델링과 시뮬레이션을 적극적으로 활용하지 않고 있으며 검증을 위한 소프트웨어 사용도 제한되고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 전산유체역학을 이용한 모델링과 시뮬레이션을 위해 GAMBIT과 FLUENT를 이용하여 모델링과 시뮬레이션을 실시하였다. 그 결과 기존의 연구보다 더 좋은 결과 확인하였고 향후 무기체계의 획득과 연구개발에 많이 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

  • Recently, development of underwater robot has actively been in progress in the world as ROV(Remotely Operator Vehicle) and AUV(Autonomous Unmmanded Vehicle) style. But KIOST(Korea Institute of Ocean Science and Technology), beginning in 2010, launched the R&D project to develop the robot, dubbed CRABSTER(Crab + (Lob)ster) in a bid to enhance the safety and efficiency of resource exploration. CRABSTER has been designed to be able to walk and swim with its own legs without screws. Among many research subjects regarding CRABSTER, optimal swimming patterns are handled in this paper. In previous studies, drag forces during one period with different values for angle of each joint were derived. However kinematics of real-robot and fluid-dynamics are not considered. We conducted simulations with an optimization algorithm for swimming by considering simplified fluid dynamics in this paper. Drag-coefficients applied to the simulation were approximated values calculated by CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics : Tecplot 360, ANSYS). In addition, optimized swimming patterns were applied to a real robot. The experiments with the real robot were conducted in circumstances in the water. As a result, when the experiments were carried out in the water, a regular pattern of drag force output came out depending on the movement of the robot. We confirmed the fact that the drag forces from the simulation and the experiment has a high similarity.

  • In this study, the design and verification of 6 kW class lift-type vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) has been conducted using advanced CAE technique based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD), finite element method (FEM), and computational structural dynamics (CSD). Designed aerodynamic performance of the VAWT model is tested using unsteady CFD method. Designed structural safety is also tested through the evaluation of maximum induced stress level and resonance characteristics using FEM and CSD methods. It is importantly shown that the effect of master eccentricity due to rotational inertia needs to be carefully considered to additionally investigate dynamic stress and deformation level of the designed VAWT system.

  • When an offshore foundation is exposed to waves and currents, local scour could develop around a pile and even lead to structural failure. Therefore, understanding and predicting the scour due to sediment transport around foundations are important in the engineering design. In this study, the flow and scour around a monopole foundation exposed to a current were investigated using a method that coupled the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and discrete element method (DEM). The open source computation fluid dynamics library OpenFOAM and a sediment transport library were coupled in the OpenFOAM platform. The incipient motion of the particle was validated. The flow fields and sediment transport around the monopole were simulated. The scour depth development was simulated and compared with existing experimental data. For the upstream scour hole, the equilibrium scour depth could be reproduced qualitatively, and it was underestimated by about 23%.

  • Turbulent wind flow over hilly terrains has been extensively investigated in the scientific literature and main findings have been included in technical standards. In particular, turbulent wind flow over nominally two-dimensional hills is often adopted as a benchmark to investigate wind turbine siting, estimate wind loading, and dispersion of particles transported by the wind, such as atmospheric pollutants, wind-driven rain, windblown snow. Windblown sand transport affects human-built structures and natural ecosystems in sandy desert and coastal regions, such as transport infrastructures and coastal sand dunes. Windblown sand transport taking place around any kind of obstacle is rarely in equilibrium conditions. As a result, the modelling of windblown sand transport over complex orographies is fundamental, even if seldomly investigated. In this study, the authors present a wind-sand tunnel test campaign carried out on a nominally two-dimensional sinusoidal hill. A first test is carried out on a flat sand fetch without any obstacle to assess sand transport in open field conditions. Then, a second test is carried out on the hill model to assess the sand flux overcoming the hill and the morphodynamic evolution of the sand sedimenting over its upwind slope. Finally, obtained results are condensed into a dimensionless parameter describing its sedimentation capability and compared with values resulting from other nominally two-dimensional obstacles from the literature.

  • 본 연구는 도심 지역에서 드론 비행 경로의 계획과 안전성 평가를 개선하기 위해 CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics)를 활용하는 방법을 제시한다. 도심 지역에서의 드론 비행은 빠르게 증가하고 있는데, 아직 경로 계획 및 안전성 평가 방법이 정립되어 있지 않으며 실험적으로 접근하고 있어 위험성이 높은 문제가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 CFD를 활용하여 드론과 건물 간 복잡한 3D 공간에서의 유체 역학을 고려한 비행 경로를 계획하고, 각 경로의 안전성을 정량적으로 평가하였다. 이를 위해 김천 혁신도시를 대상 지역으로 설정하여 지형과 건물 데이터 수집 및 비행 예상 경로를 선정하였다. CFD 유동 해석을 통해 비행 시뮬레이션과 안전성 평가를 위한 기본 데이터를 마련하였으며 이를 통해 드론이 제안된 비행 경로로 비행하였을 때 환경 유동에 의한 안전성 평가를 수행하였다.

  • In this paper, the temperature characteristics of mold transformer for the distribution power system have been analyzed by using computational fluid dynamics(CFD). The model has been modeled by coil, cores, insulating materials and frames about 3MVA grade mold transformer and analyzed the temperature distribution of the structure with a heat fluid. The fluid, which is incompressible ideal gas, is analyzed as a turbulent flow phenomenon on the assumption that it is natural cooling of transformer cooling system. Through this study, by examining the temperature distribution and hot-spot of the structure field of the mold transformer, cooling design and temperature distribution information, which are demanded for designing are estimated.

  • The fluid induced vibration (FIV) phenomena of an equivalent airfoil system of MAV have been investigated in low Reynolds number flow region. Unsteady flows with viscosity are computed using two-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The present fluid/structure interaction analysis is based on one of the most accurate computational approach with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and computational structural dynamics (CSD) techniques. The highly nonlinear fluid/structure interaction phenomena due to severe flow separations have been analyzed for the low Reynolds region that has a dominancy of flow viscosity. The effects of Reynolds number and initial angle of attack on the fluid/structure coupled vibration instability are shown and the qualitative trend of FIV phenomenon is investigated.

  • Various components of an engine nozzle are modeled as flexible multi-body components that are operated under high temperature and pressure. In this paper, in order to predict complex behavior of an engine nozzle, thermo-fluid-flexible multi-body dynamics coupled analysis framework was developed. Temperature and pressure on the nozzle wall were obtained by the steady-state flow analysis for a two-dimensional nozzle. The pressure and temperature-dependent material properties were delivered to the flexible multi-body dynamics analysis. Then the deflection and strain distribution for a nozzle configuration was obtained. Heat conduction and thermal analyses were done using MSC.NASTRAN. The present framework was validated for a simple nozzle configuration by using a one-way coupled analysis. A two-way coupled analysis was also performed for the simple nozzle with an arbitrary joint clearance, and an asymmetric flow was observed. Finally, the total strain result for a realistic nozzle configuration was obtained using the one-way and two-way coupled analyses.

  • 우리는 일상에서 유체와 강체 사이에서 일어나는 상호작용을 흔히 볼 수 있다. 하지만 이를 시뮬레이션하는 것은 많은 계산량이 필요한 어려운 작업이다. 본 논문에서는 유체와 강체 사이의 상호작용 현상 중 하나인 물수제비 현상을 실시간으로 시뮬레이션 할 수 있는 역학적 모델을 제안한다. 이를 위해 실시간에 계산 가능하면서도 이전 연구에서 고려하지 않았던 돌멩이의 회전운동을 포함하는 개선된 역학적 모델을 사용하며 공기와의 마찰로 생기는 힘들도 포함한 수식을 제안한다. 제안하는 모델을 사용하면 사용자의 다양한 입력에 대해 사실적인 물수제비 현상을 시뮬레이션 할 수 있다. 또한 이전 결과에 비해 보다 원에 가까운 파장을 만들면서 실시간 처리가 가능한 수면 모델도 제시한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법은 상호작용 역학 시스템이나 게임 엔진들에 쉽게 적용할 수 있다.
