In order to simulate a free surface flow in a trench channel, a three-dimensional incompressible unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations are closed with the ${\kappa}-{\epsilon}$ model. The artificial compressibility (AC) method is used. Because the pressure fields can be coupled directly with the velocity fields, the incompressible Navier-Stokes (INS) equations can be solved for the unknown variables such as velocity components and pressure. The governing equations are discretized in a conservation form using a second order accurate finite volume method on non-staggered grids. In order to prevent the oscillatory behavior of computed solutions known as odd-even decoupling, an artificial dissipation using the flux-difference splitting upwind scheme is applied. To enhance the efficiency and robustness of the numerical algorithm, the implicit method of the Beam and Warming method is employed. The treatment of the free surface, so-called interface-tracking method, is proposed using the free surface evolution equation and the kinematic free surface boundary conditions at the free surface instead of the dynamic free surface boundary condition. AC method in this paper can be applied only to the hydrodynamic pressure using the decomposition into hydrostatic pressure and hydrodynamic pressure components. In this study, the boundary-fitted grids are used and advanced each time the free surface moved. The accuracy of our RANS solver is compared with the laboratory experimental and numerical data for a fully turbulent shallow-water trench flow. The algorithm yields practically identical velocity profiles that are in good overall agreement with the laboratory experimental measurement for the turbulent flow.

RANS 방정식의 수치 해법을 사용해서 선박용 추진기 주의의 점성 유동을 계산함으로써 모형 프로펠러 3개(P4119, P4842, KRISO 포드 프로펠러)의 단독 성능을 해석하였다. 프로펠러 단독성능과 날개 압력 분포 그리고 프로펠러 근방의 평균 속도 분포에 대한 본 연구의 수치 해석 결과를 실험 결과와 비교하였으며, 대체로 두 결과가 서로 잘 일치하는 것이 확인되었다. 그러나, 프로펠러 날개 앞날의 압력과 포드 프로펠러의 단독 성능에 대한 본 연구의 결과는 실험 결과와 잘 맞지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

The present paper presents the CFD result for a beam wave test case. An ONR tumblehome ship model with bilge keels is used. The beam wave test is for zero forward speed and roll and heave 2DOF with wave slope $a_k=0.156$ and wavelength ${\lambda}=1.12L_{PP}$, with $L_{PP}$ the ship length. The problems is solved numerically with an unsteady Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes approach. The free surface flow is computed using a single-phase level-set method and the motions in each time step are integrated using a predictor-corrector iteration approach which uses dynamic overset grids moving with relative ship motion. The predicted CFD results for motions and forces are compared with experimental data, showing a reasonable agreement.

LDV measurements in large cavitation tunnel around a propeller in operation are carried out to provide valuable information for more accurate wake-adapted propeller design and to study hull-propeller interactions. Effective velocities are computed by both the simplified vortex ring method and by RANS solver with the body force representing the propeller load. The former method uses the nominal velocities measured at the propeller plane as an input data of the numerical method and shows a better agreement with experimental data. The latter shows the qualitative agreement and may be used as an alternative design tools in the preliminary design stage.

다상흐름 모델링 기법과 하이브리드 난류 모델링 기법을 결합한 수치모형을 이용하여 사각형 수로에서의 중력류를 수치모의 하였다. 이 연구에서 적용한 다상흐름 해석기법은 밀도가 큰 중력류 유체, 상대적으로 밀도가 작은 주변류 유체 그리고 자유수면 위에서 흐르는 공기를 3개의 상으로 처리하며, 각 상에 대해서 분리된 흐름 지배방정식을 적용한다. 난류흐름은 벽경계 근처에서는 RANS 모드로 모의하고 벽에서 떨어진 영역에서는 LES 모드로 해석하는 하이브리드 RANS/LES 방법의 일종인 IDDES 기법을 이용하여 해석한다. 이 연구에서 적용한 모델링 기법은 중력류의 머리의 전파속도를 실험값과 일치하게 잘 예측하는 것으로 나타났다. 수치해석 결과는 아울러 낮은 레이놀즈수 난류모형을 이용한 RANS 수치모의에서 이용되는 정도의 격자해상도에서도 큰 규모의 Kelvin-Helmholtz 형식의 경계면 와의 발달과 이들 와가 지속적으로 3차원 형식의 붕괴를 거쳐 작은 난류구조로 분해되면서 난류에너지가 소산되는 현상을 성공적으로 예측함을 보여준다. 적용한 수치모의 기법은 공학적으로 접근 가능한 격자해상도에서 돌출-쪼개짐 흐름 불안정을 동반한 중력류 머리부분의 3차원 거동 특성을 잘 재현하며, 이 결과는 보다 높은 격자해상도에서 구해진 LES 결과에 상응하는 것으로 나타났다. 이 연구결과는 하이브리드 난류모델링 기법과 다상흐름 해석기법을 병합한 수치모형이 자연상태에서 복잡한 중력류의 물리적 거동을 예측하는데 공학적으로 유망한 방법임을 보여준다.

지면효과를 받는 2차원 날개 주위의 난류유동을 비압축성 RANS(Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes) 방정식과 유한차분법(Finite Difference Method)을 이용하여 해석하였다. 높은 레이놀즈수에 효과적인 Baldwin-Lomax 난류모델을 사용하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 지면효과를 받는 2차원 날개단면에서의 각기 다른 두 바닥 경계조건(이동지면, 고정지면)에 따른 유동의 특성을 파악하는 것이다. Clark-Y(t/C 11.7%)날개단면의 계산 결과와 발표된 계산결과 및 실험 값과의 비교를 통해 본 수치해석 프로그램의 정확성을 검증하였다. NACA4412 날개단면에 대해 지면과의 높이변화에 대해서 두 바닥 경계조건에 대해서 유동해석을 수행하였다 계산결과에 의하면 이동지면과 고정지면에 대해서 양력과 모멘트는 별 차이가 없으나 항력은 고정지면의 경우가 이동지면의 경우보다 다소 작았다. 따라서 풍동시험에서 고정지면의 결과는 이동지면에 비해 상대적으로 저항이 낮게 평가될 가능성이 있다고 본다.

This paper provides the numerical results of a simulation of the flow around a propeller working beneath the free surface. A finite volume method is used to solve the unsteady Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) equations, where the wave-making problem is solved using a volume-of-fluid (VOF) method. The numerical analysis focuses on the propeller wake structure affected by the free surface, where we consider another free surface boundary condition that treats the free surface as a rigid wall surface. The propeller wake under the effect of these two free surface conditions shows a reduction in the magnitude of the longitudinal and vertical flow velocities, and its vortical structures strongly interact with the free surface. The thrust and torque coefficient under the free surface effect decrease about 3.7% and 3.1%, respectively. Finally, the present numerical results show a reasonable agreement with the available experimental data.

The prediction of the hydrodynamic performance of a planing hull vessel is an important and challenging topic for computational fluid dynamic (CFD) applications to naval hydrodynamics. In this paper, the resistance and planing attitude analysis for a Fridsma hull, which is a prismatic planing hull, in still water are numerically studied using OpenFOAM. OpenFOAM is an open source code package based on C++ libraries and the finite volume method (FVM) for the discretization of the RANS equation. The volume of fluid method (VOF) is used to capture the water-air interface and the SST ${\kappa}-{\omega}$ model is used for the turbulence simulation. The overset mesh method is used to capture the large motion of the hull at higher speeds. Before the extensive analysis, uncertainty analyses using various time steps and grid sizes were performed for one ship speed case of Fn = 1.19. The results of the present study are compared with those of a model test, other CFD research, and Savitsky's empirical formula. The results of the present study, following the trend of other CFD results, slightly over predict the resistance and under predict the sinkage and, more significantly, the trim.

This article presents the unsteady aerodynamic performance of crosswind stability obtained numerically for the ATM train. Results of numerical investigations of airflow past a train under different yawing conditions are summarized. Variations of occurrence flow angle from parallel to normal with respect to the direction of forward train motion resulted in the development of different flow patterns. The numerical simulation addresses the ability to resolve the flow field around the train subjected to relatively large yaw angles with three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations (RANS). ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model solved on a multi-block structured grid using a finite volume method. The massively separated flow for the higher yaw angles on the leeward side of the train justifies the use of RANS, where the results show good agreement with verification results. A method of solution is presented that can predict all aerodynamic coefficients and the wind characteristic curve at variety of angles at different speed.

The optimization of a blade sweep for a transonic axial compressor rotor (NASA rotor 37) has been performed using a response surface method and a Reynolds-averaged Wavier-Stokes (RANS) flow simulation. Two shape variables of the rotor blade, which are used to define a blade sweep, are introduced to increase an adiabatic efficiency. Data points for response evaluations have been selected by D-optimal design, and linear programming method has been used for an optimization on a response surface. The result shows that the adiabatic efficiency is increased to about 1 percent compared to that of the reference shape of the rotor blade. Relatively high increasement of the adiabatic efficiency is obtained between 20 and 60 percent span. In the present study, backward swept blade is more effective to increase the adiabatic efficiency In the axial compressor rotor.
