This paper addresses a RNG based scatternet topology formation, self-healing, and routing path optimization for small-scale distributed environment, which is called RNG-FHR(Scatternet Formation, self-Healing and self-Routing path optimization) algorithm. We evaluated the algorithm using ns-2 and extensible Bluetoothsimulator called blueware to show that RNG-FHR does not have superior performance, but is simpler and more practical than any other distributed algorithms from the point of depolying the network in the small-scale distributed dynamic environment due to the exchange of fewer messages and local control. As a result, we realized that even though RNG-FHR is unlikely to be possible for deploying in large-scale environment, it surely can be deployed for performance and practical implementation in small-scale environment.

This study is concerned with the critical evaluation of predicative capability of a k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model using the Renormalization Group(RNG) theory. The present numerical model for solution of the Navier-Stokes System is based on the modified PISO algorithms. Computations have been performed with the RNG-based K-$\varepsilon$ model for the two-dimensional flow over a backward-facing step, a confined coaxial jet, and a swirling flow in a swirl combustor. Numerical results are compared with experimental data in terms of mean flow velocities, turbulent kinetic energy, and turbulent stresses. Numerical results clearly indicate that the RNG-based K-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model shows a significant improvement over a standard K-$\varepsilon$ model in predicting the turbulent flows with flow separation and swirl.

A numerical study was made to choose the better turbulence model for the flow in the discharge flow path from a diffuser to a wall. In this study standard $\kappa-\epsilon$ model(SKE), RNG $\kappa-\epsilon$ model(RNG), and Reynolds stress model(RSM) were applied. In case of the flow with relatively high Reynolds number at a diffuser inlet, the pressure loss coefficients by RNG have a tendency to be near to those by SKE at small ratio(below about 0.35) of $h/D_o$, but to those by RSM at large ratio(above about 0.35). At large ratio RNG begins to enlarge the effects of rapid strain and streamline curvature. RNG & RSM are recommended as the appropriate turbulence models for this case. But it is noticeable that the velocity gradient pattern in RNG is same as in SKE, and also that the total pressure distribution in RNG is same as in RSM only at swirling flow area, same as in SKE only at main flow area.

Applicability of the RNG k-$\varepsilon$ model to the analysis of unsteady axisymmetric turbulent flow of a reciprocating engine including port/valve assembly is studied numerically. The governing equations based on non-orthogonal including port/valve assembly is studied numerically. The governing equations based on a non-orthogonal coordinate formulation with Cartesian velocity components are used and discretised by the finite volume method with non-staggered variable arrangements. The predicted results using the RNG k-$\varepsilon$ model of the unsteady axisymmetric turbulent flow within a cylinder of reciprocating model engine including port/valve assembly are compared to these from the modified k-$\varepsilon$ model and experimental data. Using the RNG k-$\varepsilon$ model seems the have some potential for the simulations of the unsteady turbulent flow within a port/valve-cylinder assembly over the modified k-$\varepsilon$model.

In this study, the applicability of the RNG k-.epsilon. model to the analysis of the complex flows is studied. The governing equations based on a non-orthogonal coordinate formulation with Cartesian velocity components are used and discretized by the finite volume method with non-staggered variable arrangements. The predicted results using the RNG k-.epsilon. model of three complex flows, i.e., the flow over a backward-facing step and a blunt flat plate, the flow around a 2D model car are compared to these from the standard k-.epsilon. model and experimental data. That of the unsteady axisymmetric turbulent flow within a cylinder of reciprocating model engine including port/valve assembly and the spray characteristics within a chamber of direct injection model engine are compared to these from the standard k-.epsilon. model and experimental data. The results of reattachment length, separated eddy size, average surface pressure distribution using the RNG k-.epsilon. model show more reasonable trends comparing with the experimental data than those using the modified k-.epsilon. model. Although the predicted rms velocity using the modified k-.epsilon. model is lower considerably than the experimental data in incylinder flow with poppet valve, predicted axial and radial velocity distributions at the valve exit and in-cylinder region show good agreements with the experimental data. The spray tip penetration predicted using the RNG k-.epsilon. model is more close to the experimental data than that using the modified k-.epsilon. model. The application of the RNG k-.epsilon. model seems to have some potential for the simulations of the unsteady turbulent flow within a port/valve-cylinder assembly and the spray characteristics over the modified k-.epsilon. model.

The ability of turbulence model to accurately describe the complex characteristics of the flow field and the fuel spray is of great importance in the optimum design of diesel engine. The numerical simulations of the flow field and the spray characteristics within the combustion chamber of direct injection model entgine are performed to examine the applicability of turbulence model. The turbulence models used are the RNG $\varepsilon$ model and the modified $\varepsilon$ model which included the compressibility effect due to the compression/expansion of the charges. In this study, the predicted results in the quiescent condition of direct injection model engine show reasonable trends comparing with the experimental data of spray characteristics, i. e., spray tip penetration, spray tip velocity. The results of eddy viscosity obtained using the $\varepsilon$ model in the spray region is significantly larger than that obtained using the RNG $\varepsilon$ model. The application of the RNG model seems to have some potential for the simulations of the spray characteristics, e. g., spray tip penetration, spray tip velocity, droplets distribution over the $\varepsilon$ model.

In the stochastic structure for doing exact calculationk, an input number must be changed to a pulse stream. Because the performance of random number generator (RNG) is controlled by its initial condition, we suggested newly modified cellular automata (MCA) which is uses a counter for boundary condition. We compared newly suggested MCA RNG to previously reported RNGs using the AND gate passing outputs which have the same meaning of multiplication in the stochastic calculation. In order to use stochastic we studied about the method, one large RNG can generate many small random numbers. In this method, RNG must have large drive capabilities for many input comparator. So we studied about drive capabilities using BiCMOS circuit and CMOS circit by SPICE.

Assessment and validation of RANS turbulence models are conducted for the optimal analysis of supersonic converging-diverging nozzle through the comparison between computational results and experimental data. One/two equation turbulence closures such as Spalart-Allmaras, RNG k-${\varepsilon}$, and k-${\omega}$ SST are employed to simulate the two-dimensional nozzle flow. Computational results with the turbulence models mentioned fairly well predict shock structure of the nozzle-inside and pressure distribution along the wall. Especially, SST model among the employed ones shows the best agreement to experimental results.

인공순환수로 실험구간에 반구구조물을 설치하지 않은 경우와 설치할 경우의 흐름특성을 분석하기 위하여 수치모의를 수행하였다. 수치모의는 FLUNET가 제공하는 RNG $k-\varepsilon$ 모형과 Reynolds Stress 모형을 사용하였으며 음파유속계(ADV)를 이용하여 측정한 결과와 비교분석 하였다. 수치모의와 실험결과의 상관성을 분석한 길과, RNG $k-\varepsilon$과 Reynolds Stress 모형의 계산결과와 실측값의 상관계수는 반구구조물을 설치하지 않은 경우 0.60 - 0.63, 반구구조물을 설치한 경우 0.75 - 0.78로 큰 차이가 없었다. 그러나 계산반복회수의 경우 RNG $k-\varepsilon$ 모형이 Reynolds Stress 모형에 비하여 2 - 5배 정도 빠르다. 두 모형의 걸과가 크게 차이가 나지 않으므로 순환수로 내의 흐름특성을 분석하기 위한 모형으로 수렴속도가 빠른 RNG $k-\varepsilon$ 모형을 선정하였다. 수치모의 결과와 "흐름 메카니즘에 의한 깔따구의 분포(I)- 실험"의 깔따구 분포경향을 비교한 결과 깔따구는 전반적으로 유속과 난류강도가 작은 곳에 분포하였으며 실험구간에 반구구조물이 있는 경우에는 구조물의 상${\cdot}$하류에 깔따구가 분포하였다. 이차류 또한 깔따구의 분포에 영향을 미친다. 향후 흐름특성에 따른 저서생물의 분포경향을 분석을 위하여 전산유체역학의 기법들을 적용하면 깔따구 등의 저서성 대형무척추 동물의 분포와 흐름특성의 관계를 저렴한 비용으로 분석할 수 있을 것이다.
