  • The passive control methods such as horizontal and vertical fences on the lower surface of the bluff body were applied to suppress the vortex shedding and enhance the aerodynamic stability of flow. For investigating the effects of the passive control methods, wind tunnel experiments on the unsteady flow field around a bluff body near a moving ground were performed. The boundary layer and velocity profiles were measured by the Hot Wire Anemometer (HWA) system and the vortex shedding patterns and flow structures in a wake region were visualized via the Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) system. Also, it is a measuring on moving ground condition that the experimental values of the critical gap distances, Strouhal numbers and aerodynamic force FFT analyses. Through the experiments, we found that the momentum supply due to moving ground caused the vortex shedding at the lower critical gap distance rather than that of fixed ground. The horizontal and vertical fences increase the critical gap distance and it can suppress the vortex shedding. Consequently, the stability characteristics of the bluff body near a moving ground could be effectively enhanced by the simple passive control such as the vertical fences.

  • 이착륙 속력을 줄이기 위해 날개 밑으로 프로펠러 후류를 불어넣어 날개와 수면사이의 압력을 증가시키는 PAR(Power Augmented Ram) 효과는 해면효과익선의 성능을 크게 향상시킨다. 본 논문에서는 풍동실험을 통해 이러한 PARWIG(Wing in Ground)선의 공력특성을 연구하였으며 송풍기(blower)와 덕트(duct)를 사용한 제트분사를 프로펠러 후류로 대신하였다. 제트의 분사속도, 분사위치(수평 및 수직 방향), 분사각 및 덕트 직경 변화에 대해 20인승 PARWIG선의 1/25 축소 모형선의 지면과의 고도, 앙각 및 플랩각의 변화에 따른 양력, 항력 및 피치모멘트를 계측하여 공력특성을 비교하였다. 적절한 PAR효과의 사용은 양력을 크게 증가시키며 최대 4의 양력계수까지 얻을 수 있었다.

  • 본 논문에서는 원 형상에 비해 20% 축소 설계된 수평 핀을 부착한 전투기의 외부 연료 탱크의 정적인 세로 안정성을 해석하고 투하궤적을 분석하였다. 얇은 에어포일의 공력 자료를 이용하여 연료 탱크의 정적 피칭 안정성을 해석한 결과는 풍동 실험 결과와 거의 일치하였다. 연료탱크의 6자유도 운동방정식에 대한 수치적인 모사에서 얻은 낙하 궤적을 실제 모델의 투하 실험 궤적과 비교 분석한 결과 투하 시 항공기의 자세가 연료 탱크의 수직 이동 궤적에는 영향을 미치지 않지만 수평 이동 궤적에는 상당한 영향을 미치게 됨을 알 수 있었다. 이와 같은 이론 해석 및 실험 결과의 분석을 통해 재설계 핀을 부착한 외부 연료 탱크를 비행 중 항공기로 부터 분리할 때 비행운용 규범을 기준으로 수행한다면 항공기의 안전성을 보장할 수 있음이 검증되었다.

  • In this paper, prediction of separation trajectory for Two-stage-To-Orbit space launch vehicle has been numerically simulated by using an aerodynamic database based on steady state analysis. Aerodynamic database were obtained for matrix of longitudinal and vertical positions. The steady flow simulations around the launch vehicle have been made by using a 3-D RANS flow solver based on unstructured meshes. For this purpose, a vertex-centered finite-volume method was adopted to discretize inviscid and viscous fluxes. Roe's finite difference splitting was utilized to discretize the inviscid fluxes, and the viscous fluxes were computed based on central differencing. To validate this flow solver, calculations were made for the wind-tunnel experiment model of the LGBB TSTO vehicle configuration on steady state conditions. Aerodynamic database was constructed by using flow simulations based on test matrix from the wind-tunnel experiment. ANN(Artificial Neural Network) was applied to construct interpolation function among aerodynamic variables. Separation trajectory for TSTO launch vehicle was predicted from 6-DOF equation of motion based on the interpolated function. The result of present separation trajectory calculation was compared with the trajectory using experimental database. The predicted results for the separation trajectory shows fair agreement with reference[4] solution.

  • The aim of this work is to investigate the effect of atmospheric stability on near-field pollutant dispersion from rooftop emissions of a single cubic building using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). This paper used the shear stress transport (here after SST) k-${\omega}$ model for predicting the flow and pollutant dispersion around an isolated cubic building. CFD simulations were performed with two emission rates and six atmospheric stability conditions. The results of the simulations were compared with the data from wind tunnel experiments and the result of simulations obtained by previous studies in neutral atmospheric condition. The results indicate that the reattachment length on the roof ($X_R$) obtained by computations show good agreement with the experimental results. However, the reattachment length of the rooftop of the building ($X_F$) is greatly overestimated compared to the findings of wind tunnel test. The result also shows that the general distribution of dimensionless concentration given by SST k-${\omega}$ at the side and leeward wall surfaces is similar to that of the experiment. In unstable conditions, the length of the rooftop cavity was decreased. In stable conditions, the horizontal velocity in the lower part around the building was increased and the vertical velocity around the building was decreased. Stratification increased the horizontal cavity length and width near surface and unstable stratification decreased the horizontal cavity length and width near surface. Maintained stability increases the lateral spread of the plume on the leeward surface. The concentration levels close to the ground's surface under stable conditions were higher than under unstable and neutral conditions.

  • 회전익기가 하강 비행 시 발생하는 와류 고리 상태는 회전면 근처에 도넛 모양의 순환유동을 발생시키며, 추력 상실로 인한 기체의 추락을 유발한다. 본 논문에서는 무인 비행체의 종류 중 하나인 쿼드콥터의 와류 고리 상태에서의 유동장을 물리적으로 규명하였다. 한국항공우주연구원 1m 아음속 풍동에서 쿼드콥터의 하강 비행을 모사했으며, 유동장 계측을 위해 입자 영상 유속계(PIV)를 이용했다. 정지 비행 상태의 유도 속도를 운동량이론을 이용하여 추정하고, 이를 통해 와류 고리 상태를 유발할 수 있는 하강 속도의 범위에서 시험을 수행하였다. 또한 하강률에 따른 유동장 계측뿐만 아니라 프로펠러 간의 간격을 달리 주어서도 와류 고리의 발달 및 진행방향을 확인하였다. 더불어 본 연구 결과는 쿼드콥터 주변의 유속 측정을 통해서도 와류 고리 상태를 예측할 수 있다는 것을 보여준다.

  • Conical vortices on roof corners of a prismatic low-rise building have been investigated by using the PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry) technique. The Reynolds number based on the free stream velocity and model height was $5.3{\times}10^3$. Mean and instantaneous vector fields for velocity, vorticity, and turbulent kinetic energy were measured at two vertical planes and for two different flow angles of $30^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$. The measurements provided a clear view of the complex flow structures on roof corners such as a pair of counter rotating conical vortices, secondary vortices, and tertiary vortices. They also enabled accurate and easy measurement of the size of vortices. Additionally, we could easily locate the centers of the vortices from the ensemble averaged velocity fields. It was observed that the flow angle of a $30^{\circ}$ produces a higher level of vorticity and turbulent kinetic energy in one of the pair of vortices than does the $45^{\circ}$ flow angle.

  • To investigate the effects of central buckles on the dynamic behavior and flutter stability of long-span suspension bridges, four different connection options between the main cable and the girder near the mid-span position of the Aizhai Bridge were studied. Based on the flutter derivatives obtained from wind tunnel tests, formulations of self-excited forces in the time domain were obtained using a nonlinear least square fitting method and a time-domain flutter analysis was realized. Subsequently, the influences of the central buckles on the critical flutter velocity, flutter frequency, and three-dimensional flutter states of the bridge were investigated. The results show that the central buckles can significantly increase the frequency of the longitudinal floating mode of the bridge and have greater influence on the frequencies of the asymmetric lateral bending mode and asymmetric torsion mode than on that of the symmetric ones. As such, the central buckles have small impact on the critical flutter velocity due to that the flutter mode of the Aizhai Bridge was essentially the symmetric torsion mode coupled with the symmetric vertical mode. However, the central buckles have certain impact on the flutter mode and the three-dimensional flutter states of the bridge. In addition, it is found that the phenomenon of complex beat vibrations (called intermittent flutter phenomenon) appeared in the flutter state of the bridge when the structural damping is 0 or very low.

  • The characteristics of the circular arc shaped multi-blade windmil are investigatedl. The prototypical windmill was tested in the laboratory at wind tunnel speeds of 5.5, 9.4m/s. and the model windmill was also tested in the laboratory, The power and torque coefficients were studied as functions of the blade section, the aspect ratio for blade diameter and windmill radius(M = 0.3, 0.5, 0.7), the number of blades and finally the tip-speed ratio. The analysis of the experimental results for the model windmill showed that there is the highest revolutions per minute(R.P.M) at the circular arc shaped multi-blade windmill having the blade number 10, aspect ratio(M = 0.7). and the results for the prototypical windmill showed that the power coefficient increased to a maximum value and then decreased again with an increase in the tip speed ratio, while the torque coefficient decreased directly with an increase in the tip speed ratio Finally, the experimental results were compared with the Savonius blade. the maximum power coefficient for the arc shaped blade was greater than for the Savonius blade and occured at a lower tip speed ratio.
