Investigation of leading edge impingement cooling for first stage rotor blades in an aero-engine turbine, its effect on rotor temperature and trailing edge wake loss have been undertaken in this study. The rotor is modeled with the nozzle for attaining a more accurate simulation. The rotor blade is hollowed in order for the coolant to move inside. Also, plenum with the 15 jet nozzles are placed in it. The plenum is fed by compressed fresh air at the rotor hub. Engine operational and real condition is exerted as boundary condition. Rotor is inspected in two states: in existence of cooling technique and non-cooling state. Three-dimensional compressible and steady solutions of RANS equations with SST K-ω turbulent model has been performed for this numerical simulation. The results show that leading edge is one of the most critical regions because of stagnation formation in those areas. Another high temperature region is rotor blade tip for existence of tip leakage in this area and jet impingement cooling can effectively cover these regions. The rotation impact of the jet velocity from hub to tip caused a tendency in coolant streamlines to move toward the rotor blade tip. In addition, by discharging used coolant air from the trailing edge and ejecting it to the turbines main flow by means of the slot in trailing edge, which could reduce the trailing edge wake loss and a total decrease in the blade cooling loss penalty.

As wind flows around a sharp-edged body, the resulting separated flow becomes complicated, with multiple separations and reattachments as well as vortex recirculation. This widespread and unpredictable phenomenon has long been studied academically as well as in engineering applications. In this study, the flow characteristics around rectangular prisms with five different aspect ratios were determined through wind tunnel experiments and a detached eddy simulation, that placed the objects in a simulated deep turbulent boundary layer at $Re=4.6{\times}10^4$. A series of rectangular prisms with the same height (h = 80 mm), different longitudinal lengths (l = 0.5h, h, and 2h), or different transverse widths (w = 0.5h, h, and 2h) were employed to observe the effects of the aspect ratio. Furthermore, five wind directions ($0^{\circ}$, $10^{\circ}$, $20^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$, and $45^{\circ}$) were selected to observe the effects of the wind direction. The simulated results of the surface pressure were compared to the wind tunnel experiment results and the existing results of previous papers. The vortex and spectrum were also analyzed to determine the detailed flow structure around the body. The paper also highlights the pressure distribution around the rectangular prisms with respect to the different aspect ratios. With an increasing transverse width, the surface suction pressure on the top and side surfaces becomes stronger. In addition, depending on the wind direction, the pressure coefficient experiences a large variation and can even change from a negative to a positive value on the side surface of the cube model.

The drag and heat transfer reduction phenomena and degradation effects of drag reducing polymer solutions which are known as the viscoelastic fluids are investigated experimentally for the turbulent circular tube flows. Two stainless steel tubes are used for the experimental flow loops. Aqueous solutions of Polyacrylamide Separan AP-273 with concentrations from 300 to 1000 wppm are used as working fluids. Flow loops are set up to measure the friction factors and heat transfer coefficients of test tubes in the once-through system and the recirculating flow system. Test tubes are heated by power supply directly to apply constant heat flux boundary conditions on the wall. Capillary tube viscometer and falling ball viscometer are used to measure the viscous characteristics of fluids and the characteristic relaxation time of a fluid is determined by the Powell-Eyring model. The order of magnidude of the thermal entrance length of a drag reducing polymer solution is close to the order of magnitude of the laminar entrance length of Newtonian fluids. Dimensionless heat transfer coefficients of the viscoelastic non-Newtonian fluids may be represented as a function of flow behavior index n and newly defined viscoelastic Graetz number. As degradation continues viscosity and the characteristic relaxation time of the testing fluids decrease and heat transfer coefficients increase. The characteristic relaxation time is used to define the Weissenberg number and variations of friction factors and heat transfer coefficients due to degradation are presented in terms of the Weissenberg number.

초음속 유동장 내의 축대칭 기저유동에 DES 기법을 적용하였다. 이 기법은 RANS 모드에서는 Spalart-Allmaras (S-A) 난류 모델을 사용하고, Large-eddy simulation (LES) 모드에서는 부격자 모델을 기반으로 하고 있다. LES 보다 비교적 적은 비용을 갖는 DES 기법을 사용하여 기저 유동장과 기저 압력을 정교게 예측할 수 있었다. 기저유동의 정확한 예측을 위해 경계층 두께, 운동량 두께, 표면마찰과 같은 기저 가장자리 유동 물성치를 Dutton 등의 실험과 비교하였다. DES는 하류영역에서의 전단층 말림, 큰 에디 운동, 재순환영역 내의 작은 에디 운동 같은 비정상 난류 운동의 물리적 현상을 잘 모사 하였다. 또한, 경험상수 $C_{DES}$ 1.2를 사용한 현재 결과가 일반적인 경험상수 $C_{DES}$ 0.65에 비해 실험과 잘 일치함을 보여준다.

본 논문에서는 침수조건의 식생이 식재된 개수로의 흐름 및 난류특성을 수치모의하였다. 이를 위해 여과된 Navier-Stokes 방정식을 수치해석 하였고 난류 모형으로 LES 모형을 이용하였다. 식생을 계산격자로 직접 고려하였고 이를 위해 직교격자 기반에 가상경계기법을 적용하였다. 수치모형을 이용하여 계산한 평균흐름을 Liu et al. (2008)의 수리실험데이터와 비교하였고 평균오차 10%내에서 일치하는 것으로 나타났다. 식생영역과 비식생영역 사이에서 강한 와가 생성되는 것을 확인하였고 이는 횡방향에 걸쳐 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 경계면에서 전단에 의해 유발된 난류는 후류에 의해 발생한 난류성분과 상호작용하여 최대값을 보였다. 전단에 의한 난류는 식생영역 흐름에 영향을 미쳤고 침투깊이는 식생 침수비가 커질수록 증가하였다. 이러한 난류흐름 특성은 식생영역에서 유사거동 메커니즘을 파악하는데 중요한 자료로 활용될 수 있다.

환형 스월 난류 연소기 내에서 반응, 비반응시 발생하는 유동의 차이를 flamelet 난류연소와 난류유동 모델을 모두 고려한 3차원 LES 기법으로 연구하였다. 계산 모델은 GEAE의 LM6000 환형연소기를 이용하였으며, 조건은 실험에서 얻어진 값을 이용하였다. 연소시 열방출에 의해 연소가스의 체적이 팽창하고 이로 인해 유입되는 스월의 주흐름은 하류방향으로 더욱 뻗어나간다. 비반응에서 나타났던 수직 단면에서의 타원형의 속도 분포는 원형에 가깝게 변하며, 비반응 유동장에서는 와류의 분포가 광범위하게 나타나지만, 반응유동에서는 약한 와류들은 소멸되는 것으로 나타났다. 즉 반응과 비반응에서 와류 분포와 강도, 그리고 동일 세기의 와류의 크기가 확연히 다르게 나타나는데, 이는 연소에 의한 밀도 팽창에 의한 영향으로 판단된다.

In this paper, a numerical study is carried out for super-pipe, flat plate and axisymmetric body flows to investigate a validity of using wall function and high $y_1^+$ in calculation of high Reynolds number flow. The velocity profiles in boundary layer agree well with the law of the wall. And it is found that the range of $y^+$��which validated the logarithmic law of the wall grows with increasing Reynolds number. From the result, an equation is suggested that can be used to estimate a maximum $y^+$ value of validity of the log law. And the slope(1/$\kappa$) of the log region of the numerical result is larger than that of experimental data. On the other hand, as $y_1^+$ is increasing, both the friction and the pressure resistances tend to increase finely. When using $y_1^+$ value beyond the range of log law, the surface shear stress shows a significant error and the pressure resistance increases rapidly. However, when using $y_1^+$ value in the range, the computational result is reasonable. From this study, the use of the wall function with high value of $y_1^+$ can be justified for a full scale Reynolds number ship flow.

본 실험연구는 자유수면을 이루는 환형수조에서 초음파 유속계를 이용하여 흐름특성을 분석하였다. 여기서 점착성 유사의 응집을 방해하지 않도록 설계된 실린더의 회전에 따라 흐름이 형성되도록 하였다. 종방향 유속에 대한 내부 실린더의 영향은 이동 경계 근처에서 가장 높았고 외측 벽쪽으로는 감소했다. 종방향 저유속에서 난류 운동에너지는 바닥근처 지점에서 가장 크게 나타났지만 종방향 유속이 증가함에 따라 위쪽으로 이동하였다. 멱법칙으로 산정된 종방향 유속은 바닥 마찰길이를 고려한 대수분포형태인 로그법칙으로 예측한 값보다 실측치와 잘 일치하였다. 레이놀즈 응력 방법으로 산정한 평균마찰속도는 종방향 유속이 증가할 때 로그법칙과 멱법칙으로 계산된 값보다 작게 나타났다.

The flow pattern of air layers and skin-friction drag reduction by air injection are investigated to find the suitable multiphase flow model using unstructured finite-volume CFD solver for the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations. In the present computations, two different multiphase flow modeling approaches, such as the Volume of Fluid (VOF) and the Eulerian Multi-Phase (EMP), are adopted to investigate their performances in resolving the two-phase flow pattern and in estimating the frictional drag reduction. First of all, the formation pattern of air layers generated by air injection through a circular opening on the bottom of a flat plate are investigated. These results are then compared with those of MMkiharju's experimental results. Subsequently, the quantitative ratios of skin-friction drag reduction including the behavior of air layers, within turbulent boundary layers in large scale and at high Reynolds number conditions, are investigated under the same conditions as the model test that has been conducted in the US Navy's William B. Morgan Large Cavitation Channel (LCC). From these results, it is found that both VOF and EMP models have similar capability and accuracy in capturing the topology of ventilated air cavities so called'air pockets and branches'. However, EMP model is more favorable in predicting quantitatively the percentage of frictional drag reduction by air injection.

The use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is becoming an increasingly popular means to model wind flows in and around buildings. The first published application of CFD to both indoor and outdoor building airflows was in the 1970's. Since then, CFD usage has expanded to include different aspects of building design. Wind tunnel testing (WTT) on buildings for wind loads goes back as far as 1908. Gustave Eiffel built a pair of wind tunnels in 1908 and 1912. Using these he published wind loads on an aircraft hangar in 1919 as cited in Hoerner (1965 - page 74). The second of these wind tunnels is still in use today for tests including building design ($Damljanovi{\acute{c}}$, 2012). The Empire State Building was tested in 1933 in smooth flow - see Baskaran (1993). The World Trade Center Twin Towers in New York City were wind tunnel tested in the mid-sixties for both wind loads, at Colorado State University (CSU) and the [US] National Physical Laboratory (NPL), as well as pedestrian level winds (PLW) at the University of Western Ontario (UWO) - Baskaran (1993). Since then, the understanding of the planetary boundary layer, recognition of the structures of turbulent wakes, instrumentation, methodologies and analysis have been continuously refined. There is a drive to replace WTT with computational methods, with the rationale that CFD is quicker, less expensive and gives more information and control to the architects. However, there is little information available to building owners and architects on the limitations of CFD for flows around buildings and communities. Hence building owners, developers, engineers and architects are not aware of the risks they incur by using CFD for different studies, traditionally conducted using wind tunnels. This paper will explain what needs to happen for CFD to replace wind tunnels. Ultimately, we anticipate the reader will come to the same conclusion that we have drawn: both WTT and CFD will continue to play important roles in building and infrastructure design. The most pressing challenge for the design and engineering community is to understand the strengths and limitations of each tool so that they can leverage and exploit the benefits that each offers while adhering to our moral and professional obligation to hold paramount the safety, health, and welfare of the public.
