This study has numerically modelled the combustion processes of the turbulent swirling premixed lifted flames in the low-swirl burner (LSB). In these turbulent swirling premixed flames, the four tangentially-injected air jets induce the turbulent swirling flow which plays the crucial role to stabilize the turbulent lifted flame. In the present approach, the turbulence-chemistry interaction is represented by the level-set based flamelet model. Two-dimensional and three-dimensional computations are made for the various swirl numbers and nozzle length. In terms of the centerline velocity profiles and flame liftoff heights, numerical results are compared with experimental data The three-dimensional approach yields the much better conformity with agreements with measurements without any analytic assumptions on the inlet swirl profiles, compared to the two-dimensional approach. Numerical clearly results indicate that the present level-set based flamelet approach has realistically simulated the structure and stabilization mechanism of the turbulent swirling stoichiometric and lean-premixed lifted flames in the low-swirl burner.

진동수주형의 파력발전구조물(OWC-WEC)는 파랑에너지 흡수장치 중에 가장 효율적인 것으로 알려져 있다. 이 장치는 공기실 내부에서 해수면의 상 하운동을 공기흐름으로 변환하고, Wells 터빈으로 대표되는 터빈의 구동력으로부터 전기에너지가 생산된다. 따라서, 높은 전기에너지를 얻기 위해서는 공기실 내부에서의 수면변동에 피스톤모드의 공진을 유발시켜 수면진동을 증폭시킬 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 해수소통구를 구비한 신형식의 OWC-WEC를 상정하고, 구조물에 의한 파랑변형, 공기실 내에서 수면변동과 노즐에서 공기유출속도 및 해수소통구에서 해수흐름속도를 수치해석적으로 상세히 평가한다. 수치해석모델은 Navier-Stokes solver의 혼상류해석기법에 기초한 공개 CFD code인 OLAFLOW 모델을 적용하며, 모델의 타당성을 검증하기 위하여 기존의 실험결과 및 수치해석결과와를 비교 논의한다. 본 연구의 범위 내에서 Ursell수가 커질수록 노즐에서 공기흐름속도가 증가하며, 공기실 내부에서 외부로 유출되는 공기속도가 외부에서 공기실 내부로 유입되는 공기속도보다 더 크다 등의 중요한 사실을 알 수 있었다.

Understanding of turbulent flow in the reactor coolant pump (RCP) is a premise of the optimal design of the RCP. Flow structures in the RCP, in view of the specially devised spherical casing, are more complicated than those associated with conventional pumps. Hitherto, knowledge of the flow characteristics of the RCP has been far from sufficient. Research into the nonintrusive measurement of the internal flow of the RCP has rarely been reported. In the present study, flow measurement using particle image velocimetry is implemented to reveal flow features of the RCP model. Velocity and vorticity distributions in the diffuser and spherical casing are obtained. The results illuminate the complexity of the flows in the RCP. Near the lower end of the discharge nozzle, three-dimensional swirling flows and flow separation are evident. In the diffuser, the imparity of the velocity profile with respect to different axial cross sections is verified, and the velocity increases gradually from the shroud to the hub. In the casing, velocity distribution is nonuniform over the circumferential direction. Vortices shed consistently from the diffuser blade trailing edge. The experimental results lend sound support for the optimal design of the RCP and provide validation of relevant numerical algorithms.

The secondary air injection influences the flow of the combustion gas in the furnace. Therefore, the analysis of the furnace should be careful in the selection of the turbulent model with CFD. In this study, CFD results of several turbulent models were compared with experimental results. Analysis results suggest to select turbulent models in the furnace secondary air nozzle.

This study deals with jet impingement, which is extensively used in the process industries to achieve intense heating, cooling or drying rates and also widely employed as a test flow for turbulent models due to its complex flow configuration, on a flat plate by numerical methods. In this calculation, the finite volume method was employed to solve the Navier-stokes equation based on the non-orthogonal coordinate with non-staggered variable arrangement. To get a better understanding for the fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics of the turbulent jet impingements, $k-{\varepsilon}-{\overline{v^{'2}}}$ turbulent model was adapted and compared with the experimental data and the result of standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulent model. Numerical calculations were carried out with various flow rates, nozzle to plate distances. In the case of the axisymmetric jet impingement on a flat plate, $k-{\varepsilon}-{\overline{v^{'2}}}$ turbulent model showed better agreement with the experimental data than the standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulent model in the prediction of the mean velocity profiles, the turbulent velocity profiles. the turbulent shear stress and the heat transfer rate. The highest heat transfer rate can be obtained when the impingement occurs within the potential core..

본 연구에서는, 충격파 터널을 이용하여 한국형발사체의 발사 후 마하수 6을 돌파하는 고도 65 km에서의 고공환경모사 연구를 수행하였다. 시험모델을 고정하는 지지대로 인한 유동교란 최소화를 위해 여러 다른 지지대 형상을 고려하였으며, 교란이 최소화된 지지대를 적용한 추력기 시험모델을 사용하여 단발-플룸의 추진기관을 포함한 고공환경모사 실험을 수행하였다. 가시화기법을 통한 추력기 시험을 통해 충격파 패턴뿐만 아니라 배기 플룸과 자유류 유동 간의 상호작용으로 발생하는 전반적인 유동 패턴을 실험적으로 확인하였다. 전산해석결과와 실험결과와의 비교를 통해 선단에서의 충격파 위치는 동일, 후단과 노즐부에서는 불필요 충격파로 인한 ${\pm}7%$의 오차 발생이 확인되었다.

Ejector system is a device to transport a low-pressure secondary flow by using a high-pressure primary flow. Ejector system is, in general, composed of a primary nozzle, a mixing section, a casing part for suction of secondary flow and a diffuser. It can induce the secondary flow or affect the secondary chamber pressure by both shear stress and pressure drop which are generated in the primary jet boundary. Ejector system is simple in construction and has no moving parts, so it can not only compress and transport a massive capacity of fluid without trouble, but also has little need for maintenance. Ejectors are widely used in a range of applications such as a turbine-based combined-cycle propulsion system and a high altitude test facility for rocket engine, pressure recovery system, desalination plant and ejector ramjet etc. The primary interest of this study is to set up an applicable model and operating conditions for an ejector in the condition of sonic and subsonic, which can be extended to the hydrogen fuel cell vehicle. Experimental and theoretical investigation on the sonic and subsonic ejectors with a converging-diverging diffuser was carried out. Optimization technique and numerical simulation was adopted for an optimal geometry design and satisfying the required performance at design point of ejector for hydrogen recirculation. Also, some sonic and subsonic ejectors with the function of changing nozzle position were manufactured precisely and tested for the comparison with the calculation results.

HVOF thermal spray guns are now being widely used to produce protective coatings, on the surfaces of engineering components. HVOF technology employs a combustion process to heat the gas flow and melt the coating materials which are particles of metals, alloys or cermets. Particle flow which is accelerated to high velocities and combustion gas stream are deposited on a substrate. In order to obtain good quality coatings, the analysis of torch design must be performed. The reason is that the design parameters of torch influence gas dynamic behaviors. In this study, numerical analysis is performed to predict the gas dynamic behaviors in a HVOF thermal spray gun with various torch shapes. The CFD model is used to deduce the effect of changes in nozzle geometry on gas dynamics. Using a commercial code, FLUENT which uses Finite Volume Method and SIMPLE algorithm, governing equations have been solved for the pressure, velocity and temperature distributions in the HVOF thermal spray torch.

The structural development of air-water bubble plumes has been measured under different condition on air flow rate in a cylindrical bath. The time-averaged structure of plumes has been measured with an oscilloscope and an electro-conductivity probe. The temperature of bubbles was also obtained by a thermal-infrared camera. Gas volume fraction and bubble frequency were high since bubbles concentrated on the nozzle. In general, their axial and radial values tended to decrease with increasing distance. Bubble temperature reached water temperature within a short time. The present study showed that thermal equilibrium between bubbles and water was completed before bubbles flow became stable.
