This paper describes several computational results on the various energy and environmental problems using Patankar's SIMPLE method. The specific problems included in this study are : pollutant and flammable material dispersions in open and confined areas, buoyancy-driven flow in a lake, primary clarifier for water and waste water treatment, hood ventilation in workplace. cyclone combustor and Dow chlorination reactor. A control-volume based finite-difference method is employed together with the power-law scheme. The pressure-velocity coupling is resolved by the use of the revised version of SIMPLE, says SIMPLER and SIMPLEC. The Reynolds stresses are closed using the standard or RNG κ-ε models. A nonequilibrium turbulent reaction model is developed for the application of the chlorination process in the Dow thermal reactor. Other important empirical models and physical insights appeared in this study are presented and discussed in a brief note. The computational method developed in this study is considered, in general, as a viable tool for the design and determination of the optimal operating condition of various environmental engineering system of interest.

만곡수로에서의 흐름 구조는 나선형 운동을 갖는 이차 재순환 흐름 그리고 만곡부 측벽으로부터 발생하는 흐름분리로 인한 전단층 등으로 복잡하다. 이 연구에서는 3개의 통계학적 난류모형($k-{\varepsilon}$, RNG $k-{\varepsilon}$, $k-{\omega}$ SST) 그리고 자유수면 변동 해석을 위한 VOF 기법을 적용한 비정상 Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) 계산을 수행하여 고진폭 만곡수로인 키노시타(Kinoshita) 수로에서의 이차류와 편수위를 해석하였다. 2차 정확도의 유한체적법을 이용하여 구한 해석결과를 기존 수리실험 자료와 비교하여 각 난류모형의 적용성을 평가하였다. 비정상 RANS 계산에서 적용한 3개의 통계학적 난류모형의 해석 결과를 분석해 보면 키노시타 수로에서 발생하는 만곡부 편수위는 3개 모형 모두 유사하게 모의하는 한편, 전반적인 이차류 분포는 $k-{\omega}$ SST상대적으로 잘 모의하는 것으로 나타났다. 하류에 위치한 만곡부 흐름에 영향을 미쳐 국부적으로 발생한 이차류와 이전의 만곡부 중앙 수면 부근에서 발생하는 한 쌍의 이차 와류가 존재하는 현상을 관측하였으며, $k-{\omega}$ SST 난류모형은 이러한 복잡한 와류 변화를 양호하게 모의했다. $k-{\varepsilon}$ 모형을 기반으로 개발된 두 모형으로 모의한 결과에서는 실험에서 관측된 중앙 만곡부에 존재하는 두 개의 이차류 중, 시계방향 와류가 재현되지 않는다. VOF기법을 이용해서 계산한 만곡부에서의 편수위 해석결과는 적용한 모든 난류모형에 대해서 전반적으로 실험값을 양호하게 재현하는 것으로 나타났다.

The 2nd order response surface method (RSM) has been carried out to get optimum thermal design for enhanced heat transfer on square channel with bleed holes. The RSM was used as an optimization technique with Reynolds-averaged navier-stokes equation. Turbulence model for heat transfer analysis used RNG k-epsilon model. The wall function used enhanced wall function. Numerical local heat transfer coefficients were similar to the experimental tendency. Two design variables such as attack angle of rib (${\alpha}$), rib pitch-to-rib height ratio (p/e) were chosen. Operation condition considered bleeding ratio per bleed hole ($BR_{hole}$). A response surface were constructed by the design variables and operation condition. As a result, adjusted $R^2$ was more than 0.9. Optimization results of various objective function were similar to heat transfer in channel with and without bleed flow. But friction factor was lower than channel without bleed flow.

To improve annular jet pump (AJP) performance, new ways named constant rate of velocity/pressure change method (CRVC/CRPC) were adopted to design its diffuser. The design formulas were derived according to the assumption of linear velocity/pressure variation in the diffuser. Based on the two-dimensional numerical simulations, the effect of the diffuser profile and the included angle on the pump performance and the internal flow details has been analyzed. The predicted results of the RNG k-epsilon turbulence model show a better agreement with the experiment data than that of the standard and the realizable k-epsilon turbulence models. The AJP with the CRPC diffuser produces a linear pressure increase in the CRPC diffuser as expected. The AJP with CRPC/CRVC diffuser has better performance when the diffuser included angle is greater or the diffuser length is shorter. Therefore, the AJP with CRPC/CRVC diffuser is suitable for applications requiring space limitation and weight restriction.

In the present study, the second order response surface method (RSM) is carried out to get optimum thermal design for enhancing heat transfer in a square channel with bleed flow. The RSM is used as an optimization technique. To calculate the heat transfer, RNG k-epsilon model and enhanced wall function are used. To design optimum rib turbulators, two design variables such as attack angle of rib $({\alpha})$ and rib pitch-to-rib height ratio (p/e) are optimized. In these analyses, the channel inlet Reynolds number was fixed at 10,000 in both non-bleeding and bleeding cases. The response surfaces of two design variables are constructed in cases with and without bleed flow. As a result, the optimum (or highest) heat transfer values are almost the same in ranges of two cases with and without bleed flow. However, the friction losses in the case with bleed flow are lower than those without bleed flow.

A numerical simulation has been carried out for three-dimensional turbulent flows around an Ahmed body. The Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equation is solved with the SIMPLE method in general curvilinear coordinates system. Several k-.epsilon. turbulence models with two convective difference schemes are evaluated for the performance such as drag coefficient, velocity and pressure fields. The drag coefficient, the velocity and pressure fields are found to be changed considerably with the adopted k-.epsilon. turbulence models as well as the finite difference schemes. The results of simulation prove that the RNG k-.epsilon. model with the QUICK scheme predicts fairly well the tendency of velocity and pressure fields and gives more reliable drag coefficient. It is also demonstrated that the large difference between simulations and experiment in the drag coefficient is due to relatively high predicted values of pressure drag from vertical rear end base.

A numerical study on swirling pulverized coal combustion in an axisymmetric enclosure is carried out by applying the 2-phase weighted sum of gray gases model (WSGGM) approach with the discrete ordinate method (DOM) to model the radiative heat transfer equation. In the radiative transfer equation, the same polynomial equation and coefficients for weighting factors as those for gas are adopted for the coal/char particles as a function of partial pressure and particle temperature. The Eulerian balance equations for mass, momentum, energy, and species mass fractions are adopted with the standard and RNG k-${\varepsilon}$ turbulence model, whereas the Lagrangian approach is used for the particulate phase. The eddy-dissipation model is employed for the reaction rate for gaseous mixture, and the single-step and two-step first-order reaction model for the devolatilization process for coal. Special attention is given to establish the thermal boundary conditions on radiative transfer equation By comparing the numerical results with experimental ones, the radiation model used here is confirmed and found to provide an alternative for simulating the radiative transfer.

Spiral jet is characterized by a wide region of the free vortex flow with a steep axial velocity gradient, while swirl jet is largely governed by the forced vortex flow and has a very low axial velocity at the jet axis. However, detailed generation mechanism of spiral flow components is not well understood, although the spiral jet is extensively applied in a variety of industrial field. In general, it is known that spiral jet is generated by the radial flow injection through an annular slit which is installed at the inlet of convergent nozzle. The objective of the present study is to understand the flow characteristics of the spiral jet, using a computational method. A finite volume scheme is used to solve 3-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations with RNG ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ turbulent model. The computational results are validated by the previous experimental data. It is found that the spiral jet is generated by coanda effect at the inlet of the convergent nozzle and its fundamental features are dependent the pressure ratio of the radial flow through the annular slit and the coanda wall curvature.

This paper describes the modeling of CNG direct injection using gaseous sphere injection model. Simulation of CNG direct injection does not need break up and evaporation model compared to that of liquid fuel injection. And very fine mesh is needed near the injector nozzle to resolve the inflow boundary. Therefore it takes long computation time for gaseous fuel injection simulation. However, simulation of CNG direct injection could be performed with the coarse mesh using gaseous sphere injection model. This model was integrated in KIVA-3V code and RNG $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model needs to be modified because this model tends to over-predict gas jet diffusion. Furthermore, we preformed experiments of gaseous fuel injection using PLIF (planar laser induced fluorescence)method. Gaseous fuel injection model was validated against experiment data. The simulation results agreed well with the experiment results. Therefore gaseous sphere injection model has the reliability about gaseous fuel direct injection. And this model was predicted well a general tendency of gaseous fuel injection.

In this study, three dimensional flow analysis in a HVAC duct was performed computationally using various turbulence models and compared numerical predictions such as outlet flow split, surface pressure distribution along the duct to experimental data. It's well known that accuracy of computational predictions of flow heavily dependent on turbulent models and discritization method. Therefore, in this work, to assess the ability of turbulent models to predict characteristics of duct flow, three kinds of models, namely standard $k-\varepsilon$, RNG $k-\varepsilon$ and modified $k-\varepsilon$, containing parameter for the effect of streamline curvature were employed and validated one another by comparing with experimental data. In results, modified $k-\varepsilon$ turbulence model allows a successful prediction of static pressure distribution particulary at around strong curvature but little improvement flow split. In the futrue, adoption of CFD to design HVAC duct with modified $k-\varepsilon$ model will bring benefits of producing more accurate prediction, and also give designers more detail information much more than now.
