The Lagrangian dispserion of fluid particles in inhomogeneous turbulence is investigated by a direct numerical simulation of turbulent channel flow. Fluid particle velocity and acceleration along a particle trajectory are computed by employing several interpolation schemes such as linear interpolation, high-order Lagrange polynomial interpolation and the Hermite interpolation schemes. The performances of the schemes are evaluated through comparison of errors in computed particle positions, velocities and accelerations against spectral interpolation. Adopting the four-point Hermite interpolation in the homogeneous directions and Chebyshev polynomials in the wall-normal direction appears to produce most reliable Lagrangian statistics including acceleration correlations with a reasonable amount of computational overhead.

The Immersed boundary method(IBM) is one of CFD techniques which can simulate flow field around complex objectives using simple Cartesian grid system. In the previous studies the IBM has mostly been implemented to fractional step method based Navier-Stokes solvers. In these cases, pressure buildup near IB was found to occur when linear interpolation and stadard mass conservation is used and the interpolation scheme became complicated when higher order of interpolation is adopted. In this study, we implement the IBM to an incompressible Navier-Stokes solver which uses SIMPLE algorithm. Bi-linear and quadratic interpolation equations were formulated by using only geometric information of boundary to reconstruct velocities near IB. Flow around 2D circular cylinder at Re=40 and 100 was solved by using these formulations. It was found that the pressure buildup was not observed even when the bi-linear interpolation was adopted. The use of quadratic interpolation made the predicted aerodynamic forces in good agreement with those of previous studies.

A numerical study on the use of the momentum interpolation mettled for flows with a large body force is presented. The inherent problems of the momentum interpolation method are discussed first. Numerical experiments are performed for a typical flow involving a large body force. The tact that the momentum interpolation method may result in physically unrealistic solutions is demonstrated. Numerical experiments changing the numerical grid have shown that a simple way of removing the physically unrealistic solution is a proper grid refinement where there is a large pressure gradient. An effective way of specifying the pressure and pressure correction at the boundary by a local mass conservation near the boundary is proposed, and it is shown that this method can effectively remove the inherent problem of the specification of pressure and pressure correction at the boundary when one uses the momentum interpolation method.

A new numerical algorithm of finite element methods is presented to solve high Deborah number flow problems with geometric singularities. The steady inertialess planar 4 : 1 contraction flow is chosen for its test. As a viscoelastic constitutive equation, we have applied the globally stable (dissipative and Hadamard stable) Leonov model that can also properly accommodate important nonlinear viscoelastic phenomena. The streamline upwinding method with discrete elastic-viscous stress splitting is incorporated. New interpolation functions classified as rational interpolation, an alternative formalism to enhance numerical convergence at high Deborah number, are implemented not for the whole set of finite elements but for a few elements attached to the entrance comer, where stress singularity seems to exist. The rational interpolation scheme contains one arbitrary parameter b that controls the singular behavior of the rational functions, and its value is specified to yield the best stabilization effect. The new interpolation method raises the limit of Deborah number by 2∼5 times. Therefore on average, we can obtain convergent solution up to the Deborah number of 200 for which the comer vortex size reaches 1.6 times of the half width of the upstream reservoir. Examining spatial violation of the positive definiteness of the elastic strain tensor, we conjecture that the stabilization effect results from the peculiar behavior of rational functions identified as steep gradient on one domain boundary and linear slope on the other. Whereas the rational interpolation of both elastic strain and velocity distorts solutions significantly, it is shown that the variation of solutions incurred by rational interpolation only of the elastic strain is almost negligible. It is also verified that the rational interpolation deteriorates speed of convergence with respect to mesh refinement.

A numerical study on the use of the momentum interpolation method for flows with a large body force is presented. The inherent problems of the momentum interpolation method are discussed first. The origins of problems of the momentum interpolation methods are the validity of linear assumptions employed for the evaluation of the cell-face velocities, the enforcement of mass conservation for the cell-centered velocities and the specification of pressure and pressure correction at the boundary. Numerical experiments are performed for a typical flow involving a large body force. The numerical results are compared with those by the staggered grid method. The fact that the momentum interpolation method may result in physically unrealistic solutions is demonstrated. Numerical experiments changing the numerical grid have shown that a simple way of removing the physically unrealistic solution is a proper grid refinement where there is a large pressure gradient. An effective way of specifying the pressure and pressure correction at the boundary by a local mass conservation near the boundary is proposed, and it is shown that this method can effectively remove the inherent problem of the specification of pressure and pressure correction at the boundary when one uses the momentum interpolation method.

The paper describes an approach for estimating unsteady flow rate through oil hydraulic pipelines and components in real time. Recently we have proposed following three unsteady flow rate measurement approaches; RIFM, QIFM and TPFM, in which hydraulic pipeline dynamics are made use of. In this paper, we firstly propose new approaches, i.e, an interpolation and an extrapolation methods in combination with RIFM and TPFM. In the interpolation method, unsteady flow rate at the arbitrary internal location along the pipeline between two points for measuring the two point pressure can be estimated. In this paper, the accuracy and dynamic response of interpolation method are mainly experimentally investigated in detail.

An adaptive wavelet transformation method with high order accuracy is proposed to allow efficient and accurate flow computations. While maintaining the original numerical accuracy of a conventional solver, the scheme offers efficient numerical procedure by using only adapted dataset. The main algorithm includes 3rd order wavelet decomposition and thresholding procedure. After the wavelet transformation, 3rd order of spatial and temporal accurate high order interpolation schemes are executed only at the points of the adapted dataset. For the other points, high order of interpolation method is utilized for residual evaluation. This high order interpolation scheme with high order adaptive wavelet transformation was applied to unsteady Euler flow computations. Through these processes, both computational efficiency and numerical accuracy are validated even in case of high order accurate unsteady flow computations.

In Particle Tracking Velocimetry, the analysis of double-exposed photographic plate can be carried out either by means of Young's fringe analysis or by a digital image processing technique. In this study, we used digital image processing to two images in one frame far analyzing in-cylinder flow fields, and compared PTV with PSV(Particle Streak Velocimetry). Additionally, this technique was verified by two different calibration method. One is interpolation by invert distance, the other is interpolation by area ratio. Finally, the results between two interpolation methods were similar in whole flow fields.

파티클 기반의 유체 시뮬레이션에서 파티클 들이 경계면에 부딪쳐 쇄파를 일으키는 경우 과도한 움직임으로 인해 자연스러운 흐름을 표현하기 어렵다. 파티클이 이동하는 시간 간격을 세분화하여 선형보간 함으로써 이 문제를 해결할 수 있다. 이렇게 하면 경계면에 모여 압력이 높아진 파티클 들의 가속도 벡터가 부드럽게 변한다. 하지만 보간을 하기위한 최소 샘플수가 높기 때문에 파티클 들이 점성을 가진 액체처럼 뭉치는 문제가 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 이 문제를 해결하기 가중치 보간 방식을 사용한다. 가중치 보간은 파티클의 현재 가속벡터와 이전 가속벡터에 서로 다른 가중치를 주며 차례로 더해 이동벡터를 구한다. 가중치 보간 방식을 쓰면 비슷한 흐름을 표현하는데 필요한 샘플수가 선형 보간 방식보다 적다. 그 결과로 점성을 가진 액체처럼 뭉치는 선형보간 방식의 문제점을 해결할 수 있다.
