Turbulent flows in a intake part of vacuum cleaner are studied by RANS simulations. The governing equations are solved by the SIMPLE algorithm based on the finite volume method of the unstructured grid system. The predicted results show that the suction performance is closely related to the variation of flow structure in the intake part. In order to investigate for the cleaning of bedclothes and carpet without sticking, several design changes are applied. The introduction of a solid cylinder in the intake part changes vortical structures significantly. Based on this result, a new design with spiral brushes is proposed. The design shows a good behavior for the suction performance and the flow control.

The present study has been preformed to investigate the effect of obstacles around a cooling tower with air-guide to prevent recirculation. The external region as well as the cooling tower are included in the computational domain to analyze the flow phenomena around a cooling tower accurately. Three-dimensional analysis is performed using the finite volume method with non-orthogonal and unstructured grid system. The standard turbulence model is used to consider the turbulence effect. In order to investigate the recirculation phenomena, flow and temperature fields are calculated with the distance between cooling tower and obstacle, the allocated geometrical type and the air-guide. The moisture fraction rates decrease with increment of the distance between cooling tower and obstacle. The effect of air-guide to reduce the mean recirculation rate is obviously observed.

The conditional moment closure(CMC) model has been implemented in context with the unstructured-grid finite-volume method which efficiently handle the physically and geometrically complex turbulent reacting flows. The validation cases include a turbulent nonpremixed $CO/H_2/N_2$ Jet flame and a turbulent nonpremixed $H_2/CO$ flame stabilized on an axisymmetric bluff-body burner. In terms of mean flame field, minor species and NO formation, numerical results has the overall agreement with expermental data. The detailed discussion has been made for the turbulence-chemistry interaction and NOx formation characteristics as well as the comparative performance for CMC and flamelet model.

In present study, a parametric study of a centrifugal compressor with inlet treatment has been performed numerically using three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations. The shear stress transport turbulence model was used for analysis of turbulence. The finite volume method and unstructured grid system were used for the numerical solution. Tested parameters were related to the geometry of the inlet duct. It was found that the application of circumferentially distributed holes in the inlet duct improves operational stability of the compressor compared to that with conventional inlet duct.

The Rayleigh Plesset based cavitation model(Singhal et al., 2002) is reproduced through a pressure-based finite-volume numerical method using unstructured hexagonal mesh, which is developed by the author. In the process of reproduction, a mass conservation problem by the large density changes associated with phase change, which wasn't mentioned by them, has been exposed. One resolution about it is proposed and then cavitating flow characteristics around a hydrofoil (NACA66) for evaluation of the code are investigated. The computational results are verified by the comparison with the experimental results and show good agreements with them.

유한요소법의 전산유체 역학분야에 대한 응용현황을 계산방법과 적용례를 중심으로 정리하였다. 유한요소법의 가장 큰 장점은 복잡한 유동영역을 해석하기 위한 불규칙 요소망(unstructured mesh)의 사용이라 볼 수 있으며 적응적 요소망을 이용하여 계산의 정확도를 높일 수 있는 것 또한 강점이라 할 수 있다. 다만 불규칙 요소망 사용으로 인해 수반되는 대수 방정식 계산시간 및 기억용량의 증가는 conjugate gradient 방법 등을 이용하여 반드시 해결되어야만 한다. 지금 까지 유한요소법을 이용한 계산방법을 개발해 오는 과정을 보면 유한차분법에서 오래 전에 개 발된 방법들을 도입한 경우가 많았으며 특히 난류 및 개발된 경우가 많으며 대부분의 경우 이 들을 그대로 도입, 이용하였다. 반대로 최근에 항공기 동체설계 분야를 중심으로 복잡한 형태의 유동영역을 해석이 요구되는 경우 유한차분법, 특히 유한체적법(finite volume method)에 삼각형 유한요소를 이용한 불규칙 요소망을 도입하여 성공적으로 이용하고 있다. 따라서 전산유체 역 학의 발전을 위하여 두 분야의 유기적인 협조가 필요하며 결과적으로 전산유체 역학기법이 완 전히 기계설계의 한 분야로 정립될 수 있도록 많은 노력이 필요하다고 본다.

In order to realistically predict the combustion characteristics of the oxy-fuel flame, the present study employs the non-adiabatic flame let approach. In this combustion model, the detailed equilibrium chemistry is utilized to accurately account for the thermal dissociation as well as to properly include the radiative cooling effects on the detailed chemistry. Numerical results indicate that the present approach has the capability to correctly capture the essential features and precise structure of the oxy-fuel flames. In this work, the detailed discussion has been made for the characteristics of oxy-fuel flames, the capability and defect of the present approach and also uncertainties of experimental data.

The geometry of a commercial passenger airplane is realized based on a Boeing 747-400 model through the photographic scanning and reverse engineering. The each element consisting of the plane such as fuselage, wing, vertical fin, stabilizer and engines, is individually generated and then the whole body is assembled by the photomodeler. The maximum error in the realized airplane is about 1.4% comparing with the real one. The three-dimensional inviscid steady compressible governing equations are solved in the unstructured tetrahedron grid system, and in a finite volume method using STAR-CD when the airplane flies at the cruise condition. The pressure distribution on the surface and the wing-tip vortices are visualized, and in addition to the aerodynamics coefficients, lift and drag are estimated.

Laminar Flow over an equilateral triangular cylinder is studied for several inflow angles. Under an uniform flow of $Re_d$=50,75,100,125,150, the triangular cylinder is rotated by ${\theta}$=$0^{\circ}$,$15^{\circ}$,$30^{\circ}$,$45^{\circ}$,$60^{\circ}$,$75^{\circ}$,$90^{\circ}$,$105^{\circ}$. The governing equations are solved by the PISO algorithm based on the finite volume method of the unstructured grid system. The effects of the inflow angle on the vortex-shedding flows are investigated. The Strouhal number shows a minimum at ${\theta}$=$60^{\circ}$. It is closely related to the variation of pressure and flow structure induced by the movement of separation points.
