Large-scale vortical structure of a turbulent separation bubble affected by unsteady wake is essential to understand flow mechanisms in various fluid devices. A spoked-wheel type of wake generator provides unsteady wake, which modifies the turbulent separation bubble significantly by changing rotation directions and passing frequencies. A detailed mechanism of vortex shedding from the separation bubble with unsteady wake is analyzed by taking a conditional average with spatial box filtering, which spatially integrates measured signals at pre-determined wavelength. A convecting nature of the large-scale vortical structure is analyzed carefully. Spatial evolution of the large-scale vortical structure with frequency variance is also exemplified.

The Safety depressurization System(SDS) of KNGR prevents RCS from overpressurization by discharging high pressure and temperature coolant through the I-sparger into the IRWST during an accident. If IRWST water temperature rise locally, around the sparger, beyond $200_{\circ}$2000 F by the discharged coolant, unstable steam condensation can cause large pressure load on the IRWST wall. To investigate whether this condition can be avoided for the design basis event IOPOSRV(Inadvertent Opening of one Pilot Operated Safety Relief Valve), the flow and temperature distribution of water in the IRWST is calculated by using CFX 4.3 computational fluid dynamic code. According to the results, since pool water temperature does not exceeds temperature limit within 50 seconds after the opening of one POSRV, it can be assured that the integrity of IRWST wall is maintained.

As one of the promising model on the multiphase fluid mixtures, the Lattice-Boltzmann Method(LBM) is being developed to simulate flows containing two immisible components which are different mass values. The equilibrium function in the LBM can have a nonideal gas model for the equation of state and use the interfacial energy for the phase separation effect. An example on the phase separation has been carried out through the time evolution. The LBM based on the statistic mechanics is appropriate to solve very complicated flow problems and this model gives comparative merits rather than the continuum mechanics model.

In level set method, material properties are made to change smoothly across an interface of two materials with different properties by introducing an interpolation or smoothing scheme. So far, the weighted arithmetic mean (WAM) method has been exclusively adopted in level set method, without complete assessment for its validity. We showed here that the weighted harmonic mean (WHM) method for rate constants of various rate processes, including viscosity, thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, and permittivity, gives much more accurate results than the WAM method. The selection of interpolation scheme is particularly important in multi-phase electrohydrodynamic problems in which driving force for fluid flow is electrical force exerted on the phase interface. Our analysis also showed that WHM method for both electrical conductivity and permittivity gives not only more accurate, but also more physically realistic distribution of electrical force at the interface. Our arguments are confirmed by numerical simulations of drop deformation under DC electric field.

The self-mixing type semiconductor laser Doppler velocimeter(SM-LDV) is applied to measure two simultaneously moving targets with different velocities in the same direction as a prototype target for multiscatterers. The measured beat waveform is found to be a composite wave of each beat waveform measured fran each of only moving target. In the composite waveform, each one-cycle wave has a feature of the sawtooth wave. This fact shows a possibility to discriminate the flow direction of fluid containing multiscatterers with distributed velocities by cooperating an improved version of the direction discrimination circuit already devised by the authors.

In this paper, we show the numerical and experimental results of two-dimensional fluid motions inside a rectangular container with a vertical plate subjected to a background rotation added by a rotational oscillation. In the PIV experiment we apply a new algorithm, NTSS, to the velocity calculation. In the numerical computation, the linear Ekman-pumping model was used to take the bottom friction effect into account. It was found that it showed good agreement with the experimental results at low ${\epsilon}$ number.

The present study is to compare the performance of turbulence models in the analysis of the complex flowfield of an axial flow compressor. Baldwin-Lomax turbulence model and k-$\omega$ turbulence model were selected for the comparison. The thin-layer Wavier-Stokes equation was calculated by explicit, finite-difference numerical scheme. A spatially-varying time-step and an implicit residual smoothing were used to improve convergence. Experimental measurements for NASA rotor 37 were cited fer the comparison with numerical data. The compared two turbulence models gave similar performance over all except for total pressure.

Chimera grid methods have been widely used in Computational Fluid Dynamics due to its simplicity in constructing grid systems over complex bodies, and suitability for unsteady flow computations with bodies in relative motion. However, the interpolation procedure for ensuring the continuity of the solution over overlapped regions fails when the so-called orphan cells are present. We have adopted the MLS(Moving Least Squares) method to replace commonly used linear interpolations in order to alleviate the difficulty associated with the orphan cells. MLS is one of the interpolation methods used in mesh-less methods. A number of examples with MLS are presented to show the validity and the accuracy of the method.

Similitude requirement for model testing of flow induced vibration of reactor internals are investigated. In depth discussions on the Reynolds number effects are made. For valid model tests of fuel assemblies vibrating in its fundamental natural frequency, reduced frequency (fD/U), and dam ping parameter( $m_{c}$$\delta$$_{c}$ $D_{\rho}$$^2$) are two most important parameters.ers.

전자기적으로 지지되는 임펠러를 가진 원심 혈액 펌프는 기존의 심장 펌프에 비해 많은 장점을 가지고 있지만, BVAD의 틈새에서 발생하는 유체 동역학적인 문제는 여전히 규명이 되지 않은 상태이다. 본 연구에서는 BVAD의 틈새에서 발생하는 혈액외상(blood trauma)의 예측에 대한 연구에 중점을 두고 있다. 일반적으로 원심 혈액 펌프의 설계를 위해 전자기적으로 지지되는 원심 혈액 펌프의 디스크 틈새에서 발생하는 혈액의 손상을 평가하는 방법으로 CFD를 이용한 방법이 널리 이용되고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 초기 원심 혈액 펌프의 설계 단계에서 펌프의 특성을 평가하기 위하여, 축 방향 틈새의 영향과 회전수 변화에 따른 누수경로의 전단 응력의 크기 평가를 CFD를 사용하여 해석하여 보았다.
