Concave surface boundary-layer flows are subjected to centrifugal instability which results in the formation of streamwise counter-rotating vortices. Such boundary layer flows have been experimentally investigated on concave surfaces of 1 m and 2 m radius of curvature. In the experiments, to obtain uniform vortex wavelengths, thin perturbation wires placed upstream and perpendicular to the concave surface leading edge, were used to pre-set the wavelengths. Velocity contours were obtained from hot-wire anemometer velocity measurements. The most amplified vortex wavelengths can be pre-set by the spanwise spacing of the thin wires and the free-stream velocity. The velocity contours on the cross-sectional planes at several streamwise locations show the growth and breakdown of the vortices. Three different vortex growth regions can be identified. The occurrence of a secondary instability mode is also shown as mushroom-like structures as a consequence of the non-linear growth of the streamwise vortices. Wall shear stress measurements on concave surface of 1 m radius of curvature reveal that the spanwise-averaged wall shear stress increases well beyond the flat plate boundary layer values. By pre-setting much larger or much smaller vortex wavelength than the most amplified one, the splitting or merging of the streamwise vortices will respectively occur.

Three dimensional velocity measurements of a 35.deg. inclined jet issuing into turbulent boundary layer on both concave and convex surfaces have been conducted. To investigate solely the effect of each curvature on the flow field, streamwise pressure variations are minimized by adjusting the shape of the opposite wall in the curved region. From the measured velocity components, streamwise mean vorticities are calculated to determine jet-crossflow interface. The results on convex surface show that the injected jet is separated from the wall and the bound vortex maintains its structure far downstream. On concave surface, the secondary flow in the jet cross-sections are enhanced and in some downstream region from the jet exit, the flow on the concave surface has been developed to Taylor-Gortler vortices

For protection of the cylinder wall of the ball mill for grinding raw ore. the inner side of the cylinder is covered with rubber liner. The rubber is easily worn down because the rubber relatively soft compared with raw ore. So the rubber liner in the ball mill cylinder must be replaced almost every year and the cost for replacing rubber liner formidable. In this paper, for reducing or excluding the cost of replacing rubber liner the basalt liner is designed. The basalt materials are generally harder than raw ore and the basalt liner in the ball mill does not wear down and so it can be used almost permanently. The concave surfaces are made on the liner of the ball mill and the liner in the cylinder wall plays also the role of raising the steel balls mixed in the raw ore. The section profiles of the concave surface have an important effect on the performance of the ball mill. The deep concave grooves raise the steel balls to high levels and give the large potential energy to the steel balls impacting to the raw ore. But if the concave grooves are too deep. the steel balls raised too high by the concave grooves fly along the parabolic path and reach to the other side of cylinder wall and so the steel balls do not play the roles of grinding the raw ore. The forces acting to a steel ball in a concave groove of the cylinder liner are also analyzed in this paper. The formulas calculating the height and the impact point of the steel ball are introduced and presented. Based to these formulas, the optimum section profiles of the basalt liner are presented.

The effect of concave curvature on the natural convection has been numerically studied using the higher-order finite difference method. The heating wall in a enclosure is approximated by a cosine function. The heat transfer coefficient is analyzed for three Rayleigh numbers and five amplitudes. For Ra = 10/sup 8/ the separation and reattachment are observed on the adiabatic walls. The wall heat transfer are slightly changed by the increasing curvatures.

In this paper a numerical study was performed for the effect of the wall curvature on the behaviors of fuel sprays impinging on the concave Surface. Actually, in the real diesel engines, a piston head has a curved shape for the purpose of the controlling the movement of fuel droplets and the mixture formation. For past decades, although many experimental and numerical works had been performed on the spray/wall impingement phenomena, the curvature effect of impinged wall was rarely investigated. The wall curvature affects on the behaviors of the secondary droplets generated by impingement and the concave wall obstructs the droplets to advance from the impinging site to outward. In present study, the simulation code was validated for the flat surface case and three cases of the different curvature were calculated and compared with the flat surface case for several parameters, such as the spray radius, the spray height and the position of vortex center of gas phase. The simulation results showed that the radial advance of the wall spray and the vortex is decreased with increasing the curvature. It was concluded that the curvature of the impinged wall significantly affects the behaviors of both the gas-phase and the droplet-phase.

An experimental study of jet flow and heat transfer has been carried out for the jet impingement cooling on a semi-circular concave surface. For the jet impingement on the concave surface, three different regions-free jet region, stagnation region, and wall jet flow region-exist, and the distributions of mean velocity and fluctuating velocity for each region have been measured by Laser Doppler Velocimeter. Of particular interests are the effects of jet Reynolds number, the distance between the nozzle exit and cooling surface apex, and the distance from the stagnation point in the circumferential direction. The resulting characteristics of heat transfer at the stagnation point and the variation of heat transfer along the circumferential direction including the existence of secondary peak have been explained in conjunction with measured impinge jet flow.

최근 보강토 공법은 구조적으로 안정성이 우수하고 경제성이 뛰어나 콘크리트 옹벽을 대체하는 공법으로 많이 사용되고 있으며, 옹벽뿐만 아니라 기초, 사면, 도로 등에 그 적용 범위가 다양하다. 그러나, 우수와 같은 침투수로 인해 전면 벽에서 충분한 안정성을 확보하지 못하여 붕괴, 배부름 현상 등의 피해가 발생할 수 있고, 특히 곡선부에서는 응력집중 현상에 의해 전면 벽의 균열 등의 문제가 추가적으로 일어날 수 있다. 이는 보강토 옹벽 곡선부에 대한 정확한 설계 기준이 미흡하고 부실시공을 하는데 원인이 있다고 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 보강토 옹벽의 피해사례를 통해 문제점을 파악하고 유한요소 수치해석을 통해 보강토 옹벽 설계를 위한 기초 연구로서, 옹벽의 형상(볼록형, 오목형)에 따른 직선부와 곡선부의 거동을 비교 분석하였다.

An experimental research was performed to study turbulent flow characteristic in a $90^{\circ}$ circular bend by using the PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry) method, this study found the time-mean velocity distribution, time-mean turbulent intensity with turbulent flow for Re = 10,000, 15,000, 20,000, and 25,000 along the test bend. It was found that the highest streamwise velocity of turbulent flow occurs near y/D = 0.5 and the flow moved to y/D =0.15. The peak turbulence intensity shifted toward the concave wall from $\theta= 45 and as \theta$ increased. the intensity decayed along the test tube.

본 논문에서는 블록식 보강토옹벽의 현장계측을 통해 곡선부 보강영역의 변형특성을 분석하였다. 보강토공법은 설계 및 시공이 증가하여 실생활에서 쉽게 접할 수 있게 되었으나, 곡선부의 균열 및 붕괴사례가 빈번히 발생하여 안전에 대한 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 이러한 붕괴원인은 곡선부에 대한 연구 부족과 설계기준의 미흡, 경제성과 공기단축에 의한 시공성 결여, 충분하지 못한 다짐 공간 등에 있다고 할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 기존 설계 및 시공 기준을 검토하고 블록형 보강토옹벽 곡선부 사고사례를 통해 원인을 분석하였으며, 실제 시공된 블록형 보강토옹벽의 현장계측을 통해 직선부와 곡선부의 거동을 비교 분석하고 곡선부 보강영역의 변형특성을 확인하였다. 그 결과, 먼저 곡선부의 수평변위가 직선부와 비교하여 볼록형에서 최대 90%, 오목형에서 최대 60% 높게 나타났으며, 다음으로 곡선부 보강영역에서 볼록형의 경우 보강토옹벽 중심에서 수평방향으로 H/2구간에서 최대변위를 보이며 H까지의 영향범위를 나타내었으며, 오목형의 경우 중심에서 최대변위를 보이며 수평방향으로 H/4구간에서 최소변위를 확인하였다. 이러한 결과로 형태에 따른 곡선부의 영향범위와 현장적용을 위한 보강영역의 재정립이 필요하다고 판단되며, 본 연구결과가 이를 위한 기초 자료로서 활용 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
