This study investigated the performance of a vortex hydrocyclone for solid removal in a recirculating aquaculture system. In a fish-breeding industry, effluent water is mainly disposed by gravity sedimentation. Thus, a large settling tank and a lot of water are needed to purify effluent water. However, this typical method does not show consistent efficiency. In case of low efficiency, discharged water contains a lot of feeding sediments. This causes environmental problems. Instead of this typical method a hydrocylone is tested to discharge water which contains a lot of feeding sediments. In this paper, a hydrocyclone with low velocity and pressure drop in a recirculating aquaculture system is investigated.

The objective of the present study is to investigate the characteristics for flow and wall shear stress in the aneurysm which is a local dilatation of the blood vessel. The numerical simulation using the commercial software for the laminar and steady flow were carried out over the diameter ratios(ratio of maximum diameter of aneurysm to the diameter of blood vessel) ranging from 1.5 to 2.5 and Reynolds number ranging from 900 to 1800. It was shown that a recirculating vortex occupied the entire bulge with its core located closer to the distal end of the bulge and the strength of vortex increased with increase of the Reynolds number and diameter ratio. Especially, for the Reynolds number of 1800 and diameter ratio of 2.5, the very weak secondary recirculating flow was produced at the left upper of the aneurysm. The position of a maximum wall shear stress was the distal end of the aneurysm(z=18mm) regardless of the Reynolds number and diameter ratios. But the maximum values of the wall shear stress increased in proportion to the increase of Reynolds number and diameter ratio.

The turbulent flow around a sphere was investigated using two experimental techniques: smoke-wire flow visualization in wind tunnel at Re=5300, 11000 and PIV measurements in a circulating water channel. The smoke-wire visualization shows flow separation points near an azimuthal angle of $90^{\circ}$, recirculating flow, transition from laminar to turbulent shear layer, evolving vortex roll-up and fully turbulent eddies in the sphere wake. The mean velocity field measured using a PIV technique in x-y center plane demonstrates the detailed near-wake structure such as nearly symmetric recirculation region, two toroidal vortices, laminar separation, transition and turbulent eddies. The PIV measurements of turbulent wake in y-z planes show that a recirculating vortex pair dominates the near-wake region.

The objective of the present study was to investigate the characteristics of flow and wall shear stress under steady and pulsatile flow in the aneurysm. The numerical simulation using the software were carried out for the diameter ratios ranging from 1.5 to 3.0, Reynolds number ranging from 900 to 1800 and Womersley number, 15.47. For steady flow, it was shown that a recirculating vortex occupied the entire bulge with its core located closer to the distal end of the bulge and the strength of vortex increased with increase of the Reynolds number and diameter ratio. The position of a maximum wall shear stress was the distal end of the aneurysm regardless of the Reynolds number and diameter ratios. For the pulsatile flow, a recirculating flow at the bulge was developed and disappeared for one period and the strength of vortex increased with the diameter ratio. The maximum values of the wall shear stress increased in proportion to the diameter ratio. However, the position of a maximum wall shear stress was the distal end of the aneurysm regardless of the diameter ratios.

The transient incompressible flow behind the axisymmetric bluff body is numerically simulated using the random vortex method(RVM). Based on the vorticity formulation of the unsteady Navier-Stokes equations, the Lagrangian approach with a stochastic simulation of diffusion using random walk technique is employed to account for the transport processes of the vortex elements. The numerical solutions for 2-dimensional recirculating flow behind a backward-facing step in the laminar range of Reynolds number are compared with experimental data. The present simulation focuses on the transitional flow regime where the recirculation zone behind the bluff body becomes highly unsteady and large-scale vortex eddies are shed from the bluff body wake due to intrinsic shear layer instabilities. The unsteady vertical flow structures and the mixing characteristics behind the bluff body are discussed in detail.

In order to investigate the vortex body frame interaction around the side mirror of a passenger car, velocity vector fields in the wake, pressure distributions and boundary layer flows over both the mirror surface and the mirror housing, have been measured by several experimental tools. It was resulted that only within an half downstream distance of the mirror span there appears the recirculation zone, and also found that vortex trail towards to the driver side window between A and B pillars, making the acoustic noise and vibration. Wake vortex rolls up after this recirculating zone and makes the trail of the vortex center towards the driver side window, which was also confirmed by measurements of wake velocity vectors in the vertical sections of the trail and visualization over the side mirror surfaces as well. It was also observed that total pressure distribution over the mirror surface has the minimum peak near the lower tip region which can be considered as the origin of the vortex center. It can be concluded that the geometrical modification of the lower tip and the upper root area of the mirror housing is the key to control the wake vortex.

Heat-transfer enhancement is seeked through modifications of fin surface. Real life plate-fin heat exchangers have complex three-dimensional geometries. Fins can have arrays of dimples and are attached to rows of penetrating tubes. To isolate the effect of surface modification, we model the real flow by a two-dimensional channel flow with a dimple on one side. The flow is analysed by solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equation by a finite volume method on a generalized boundary-fitted coordinate. Results show a trapped vortex inside the dimple for all cases computed. Local maximum of Nusselt number occurs near the downstream end of the dimple, due to such a vortex. Location of the vortex does not change with respect to the wall temperature change, but moved downstream when Reynolds number increases. This, together with the results that in all cases vortex core is somewhat downstream of the dimple center, suggests that the mean flow above continuously feeds the kinetic energy to the recirculating flow. Heat transfer enhancement and pressure losses are studied through analysing the relevant dimensionless parameters like, Nusselt number and friction factor. In all cases computed, dimpled channel flow experiences less pressure loss than two-dimensional Poiseuille flow.

복합지형을 지나는 박리흐름(separated flows)들이 와도 이론에 의해 모델링 되었다. 흐름은 비회전성 및 비점성으로 가정하였으며, 선형 시어흐름에 대한 유선함수를 결정하기 위해 새로운 기법이 기술되었다. 지형지물의 형태로는 snow cornice과 backward-facing step을 정의하였으며, 이러한 지형지물의 후미에는 유체의 박리현상과 역류현상(reattachment)이 생긴다. 유체의 박리현상이 지형지물의 가장자리에 발생되게 하기 위해 점 와도를 흐름에 발생시켰고, 지형지물의 가장자리에 있는 뾰족한 부분을 완화하고 최대곡률 부근에서의 섭동운동에 중요한 박리흐름 발생지점의 구속조건을 없애기 위해 conformal mapping을 수정하였다. 와도 발생지점에서 와도를 평형으로부터 이동시키거나, 또는 임의의 섭동을 초기흐름에 가하는 방식으로 섭동을 가하여 비정상흐름을 발생시켰다. 박리지점의 풍상측에서 연속적으로 방출되고, 또한 bubble의 이차순환에 의해 변형된 물질의 궤적들이 수치적으로 적분되었으며, 시간에 대한 농도누적이 역류지점의 풍하측 고정된 지점에서 계산되었다. 본 연구에 사용된 모델은 방출물질의 확산형태와 간헐성을 제대로 다룰 수 있음을 알 수 있으며, 이산적인 방법에 의한 다중-와도모델 및 수치모델의 결과들과도 일치한다. 본 연구에 의하면, 박리 및 역류현상이 있는 유체의 흐름 속에 순환하는 bubble들의 비정상상태(unsteadiness)는 풍하측에서 대규모의 고농도 누적을 일으키는 주요 원인이다.

주기적인 와류화염과 열방출 진동의 연관성에 대한 실험적인 연구가 수행되었다. 난류제트화염은 덤프 연소기에서 재순환 되는 뜨거운 생성물에 의해서 안정화되며, 큰 스케일의 주기적 와류가 음파에 의해서 제트화염에 부가되었다. 실제적인 연소기에서의 불안정 현상을 모사하기 위해 가진주파수와 실험변수들을 조절하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 원치 않는 열방출의 진동을 유도시키는 와류-열방출의 연관성을 분석하여, 연소불안정의 능동제어를 위해 사용될 수 있는 알맞은 연료분사 패턴을 조사하는 것이다. 주기적인 패턴을 측정할 수 있는 슐리렌 기법과 CH* chemiluminescence 기법이 사용되었으며, 실험결과는 와류 생성 사이클의 위상에 따라서 서로 비교되었다.

일정한 주기를 갖는 맥동유동에 대하여 혈관이 확장될 때 나타나는 동맥류 내부에서의 유동 및 벽면전단응력의 특성을 2차원적으로 고찰하였다. 상용 소프트웨어를 이용하여 직경비 1.5. 2.0 및 2.5 그리고 Womersley 수 15.47에 대한 복부대동맥내의 유동 현상을 수치해석하였다. 해석결과 동맥류 상단부에서 형성된 재순환유동은 시간의 흐름에 따라 생성과 소멸을 반복하였고. 시간이 3.19초인 경우, 동맥류 입구부 상단 근처에서 매우 미약한 재순환유동이 발달하고 있음을 예상할 수 있었다. 그리고 직경비가 증가할수록 동맥류 말단부에서 전단응력의 변화의 폭이 증가하였고 최대 전단응력의 값도 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 최대 벽면전단응력의 발생 위치는 직경비의 변화와 거의 무관하였으며 동맥류 말단부 근처 (z : 35mm)에서 발생하였다
