KTX trains show a high interior noise level in tunnel with concreted track at 300 km/h. Generally, the concreted track has higher sound emissions compared with ballasted track due to the reduced absorption and the major sources of interior noise for KTX are known as the aerodynamic noise and rolling noise. Therefore, It is necessary to find out noise source and noise components to affect interior noise in tunnel with concreted track. In this study, we measure the noise and vibration inside KTX in tunnel in order to find the cause of the interior noise of KTX. The analysis results show that the interior noise of KTX in tunnel with concreted track is increased sharply by a low frequency below 80 Hz. We know that the low frequency noise inside KTX in tunnel with concreted track is generated at the natural frequency of carbody by aerodynamic noise outside gangway and rolling noise. In order to reduce the noise level at 80 Hz, modification of mud-flap length between carbodys is suggested and the effect of noise reduction is examined in tunnel with concreted track.

The optimal design for a leading car considering the aerodynamic resistance is required on the high-speed train due to increasing of ratio of drag force with proportion for the square of velocity. The aerodynamic analysis using CFD in the stage of concept design offers more economical analysis method which is used to estimate the influence of flow and pressure around the leading car than the experimental method using the Mock-up. In this study, we want to assist the artistic design with aerodynamics analysis in order to get the optimal design for leading car made of composite material. The results of aerodynamic analysis for two leading car models, which one is expressed with lineal beauty and the other is with curvaceous beauty, are compared with each other and offer the proposal of modification for two models in order to decrease be drag force. The shape of curvaceous model is better for the pressure force but slightly worse for the viscous force than the other. The Fluent software is used for the calculation of flow profile in this study.

In this study, we want to assist the artistic design with aerodynamics analysis in order to get the optimal design for leading car with the operation speed at 180km/h. The results of aerodynamic analysis for two leading car models which one is expressed with lineal beauty and the other is with curvaceous beauty are compared with each other and they offer the proposal of modification for two models in order to decrease the drag force. The shape of curvaceous model is better for the pressure force but slightly worse for the viscous force than the other. The Fluent software is used for the calculation of flow profile in this study.

It is common for highly loaded supersonic stage to have very high relative inlet Mach number. To get this level of inlet Mach number, rotor blade outer diameter or rotational speed should be increased. In the case of commercial turbo-fan engine, it is preferred to make the rotor blade outer diameter large than increasing the rotational speed. But, for multi-stage fan of military engines, overall diameter is often restricted and they are apt to increase the rotational speed. With high rotational speed, relative inlet Mach number is likely to be well supersonic over the entire rotor blade span and the characteristic of the stage is affected with meridional shape of the stage, especially at near hub or tip. In this paper, the aerodynamic performance of two different hub surface shape is compared and it's merit and demerits were discussed.

In the paper, a study on the analysis of the effects of trailing edge thickness on the aerodynamic characteristics of an airfoil is described. In this research, modification of the formula representing NACA symmetric airfoil is studied to change the airfoil shape with different trailing edge thickness of user's choice. According to the result of aerodynamic characteristics, as the trailing edge thickness increases the maximum lift coefficient increases while the lift-to-drag ratio decreases. In this paper flow calculation results are demonstrated and the analysis on those results and findings on the effects of non-zero thickness of trailing edge are suggested.

An aerodynamic design method has been developed by using a three-dimensional unstructured Euler code and an adjoint code with a discrete approach. The resulting adjoint code is applied to a wing design problem of super-sonic transport with a wing-body-nacelle configuration. Hicks-Henne shape functions are adopted far the surface geometry perturbation, and the elliptic equation method is employed fer the interior grid modification during the design process. Interior grid sensitivities are neglected except those for design parameters associated with nacelle translation. The Sequential Quadratic Programming method is used to minimize the drag with constraints on the lift and airfoil thickness. Successful design results confirm validity and efficiency of the present design method.

The flow structure inside the intake head greatly affects the working efficiency of a vacuum cleaner such as suction power and aero-acoustic noise. In this study, the flow inside intake heads of a vacuum cleaner was investigated using qualitative flow visualization and quantitative PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) techniques. The aerodynamic power, suction efficiency and noise level of the intake heads were also measured. In order to improve the performance of the vacuum cleaner, inner structure of the flow paths of the intake head, such as trench height and shape of connection chamber were modified. The flow structures of modified intake heads were compared with that of the original intake head. The aero-acoustic noise caused by flow separation was reduced and the suction efficiency was also changed due to flow path modification of intake head. In this paper, the variations of flow fields for different intake heads are presented and discussed together with results of aerodynamic power, suction efficiency and noise level.

The developed concept of smart flow control based on turbulence scale modification was applied to control a flow around a circular cylinder. The concept was realized using arrays of vortex-generators regularly spaced along a cylinder generatrix with a given step. Mechanical and thermal vortex-generators were tested, the latter having been based on the localized surface heating or plasma discharges initiated with microwave radiation near the surface. Thus depending on a particular engineering solution, flow transport properties could be modified in passive or active ways. Matched numerical and experimental investigations showed a possibility to delay flow separation and, accordingly, to improve the aerodynamic performance of blunt bodies.

This work deals with designing the aircraft wing and simulating the flow behavior on it to determine the aerodynamically efficient wing design. A NACA 4412 airfoil is used to design the base wing model. A wing with a rectangular planform and the one with curved leading edge planform was designed such that their surface areas are the same. Then, a comprehensive flow analysis is carried out at various velocities and angle of attacks using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and the results were interpreted and compared with the experimental values. This study shows that there is a significant improvement in the aerodynamic performance of the curved leading edge wing over the wing with rectangular planform.

A modified version of SST turbulence model is suggested to simulate unsteady separated flows over oscillating airfoils. The original SST model, which shows good performance in predicting various steady flows, often results in oscillatory behavior of aerodynamic loads in large separated flow regions. It is shown that this oscillatory behavior is due to the adoption of the absolute value of vorticity in generalizing the original model. As a remedy, a modification is made such that the vorticity in the original SST model is replaced by strain rate. The present model is verified for a mild separated airfoil flow at fixed angle of incidence and for unsteady flowfields about oscillating airfoils. The results are compared with BSL model and original SST model. It is illustrated that the present model gives a better agreement with the experimental results than other two models.
