본 논문은 EDISON_CFD를 활용하여 화성에서 운용 가능한 풍력터빈에 대해 실험 및 개선 설계하였다. 본 연구에서는 화성의 중력 및 공기밀도 등 화성의 환경 데이터를 적용함으로써 풍력터빈의 형상을 새롭게 설계 하였다. 개선 설계는 기존의 풍력발전기 형상을 변형시키며 해석을 진행하였으며, 받음각과 형상에 따라 생성되는 토크를 확인하였다. 개선설계한 풍력터빈 모델은 단위 미터 당 약 8 W의 전력생산이 가능한 것을 확인하였다.

Aerodynamic characteristics of cross section shape is an important parameter for the wind response and structural stability of long span bridges. Numerical simulation methods have been introduced to estimate the aerodynamic characteristics for more detailed flow analysis and cost saving in place of existing wind tunnel experiment. In this study, the computational fluid dynamics(CFD) simulation and large eddy simulation( LES) technique were used to estimate lift, drag and moment coefficients of four cross sections. The Strouhal numbers were also determined by the fast Fourier transform of time series of the lift coefficient. The values from simulations and references were in a good agreement with average difference of 16.7% in coefficients and 8.5% in the Strouhal numbers. The success of the simulations is expected to attribute to the practical use of numerical estimation in construction engineering and wind load analysis.

The new aerofoil, KA2 was designed to apply to the wind turbine blade. For the aerofoil, numerical analysis was performed to review aerodynamic characteristics like lift and drag coefficient. And they are verified with test data using the digital wind tunnel and test samples from 3D printer. The digital wind tunnel was developed to test wing in the small laboratory, and verified with test of NACA0012 airfoil. KA2 aerofoil is asymmetric, and has the thickness ratio of 14%, and 12 degree of AOA at the maximum lift coefficient of 1.3. In this paper, aerodynamic characteristics from numerical and test approaches will be proposed with AOA in detail. Therefore, this aerofoil will be used for the design of wind turbine blade.

Flow-induced forces on two identical nearby circular cylinders immersed in the cross flow at Re =100 were numerically studied. We consider all possible arrangements of the two circular cylinders in terms of the distance between the two cylinders and the inclination angle with respect to the direction of the main flow. It turns out that significant changes in the characteristics of flow-induced forces are noticed depending on how the two circular cylinders are positioned, resulting in quantitative changes of force coefficients on both cylinders. Collecting all the numerical results obtained, we propose a contour diagram for drag coefficient and lift coefficient for each of the two cylinders. The perfect geometrical symmetry implied in the flow configuration allows one to use those diagrams to estimate flow-induced forces on two identical circular cylinders arbitrarily positioned in physical space with respect to the main flow direction.

Wall correction method for wind tunnel test is reviewed and applied to the numerical experimental results obtained at the wind tunnel condition. The corrected lift coefficient agrees well with the reference data generated from the grid having very far boundary However the corrected drag coefficient presents some deviation from the reference data.

항공기 운항 중에 가장 연료가 많이 소모될 때는 순간 고출력이 필요한 이륙 순간이다. 항공기가 이륙시 보다 적은 연료를 이용하여 효율적인 비행을 위해 고양력 장치를 사용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 항공기가 이륙 시 사용되는 고양력 발생 장치 중 하나인 Slat을 이용하여 Slat의 각도 변화에 따라 가장 효율적인 공력특성을 찾아보았다. Slat의 각도를 $15^{\circ}$, $20^{\circ}$ $25^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$로 변화시켜 보면서 공력 특성 값들을 확인한 결과 Slat이 있는 경우 NACA2415만 있는 경우보다 양력계수가 좋아졌으나 Slat 뒷전의 와류에 의해 항력계수가 약간 증가 하는 모습을 보였다. 본 실험 case 중에서는 Slat 각도가 $30^{\circ}$일 때 Slat 뒷전의 와류가 사라져 가장 우수한 공력 특성을 보였다.

In this study, flow around rudder is analyzed by utilizing the numerical calculation, and the rudder open water test is performed to validate the calculation. The aim of this study is to design the new rudder shape to improve manoeuvring performance. In first, flow around two-dimensional rudder section is analyzed to understand the characteristics of section profile. And the calculation for all-movable rudders is performed and compared with results of rudder open water test. It is hard to numerically predict the drag force because the value is sensitive to the turbulence modeling and grid spacing near the wall. However, the lift force is predicted well. And we can prove that concave profile of the rudder section produce more lift and torque than convex one as a experiment. However PANEL method that ignore viscous effect cannot distinguish the difference of them. So, we can look for the numerical tool to be developed the new rudder shape.

The authors adopt the Unmanned Undersea Vehicle(UUV), the shape of which is like a manta. They call here it Manta UUV. Manta UUV has been designed from the similar concept of the UUV called Manta Test Vehicle(MTV), which was originally built by the Naval Undersea Warfare Center of USA(Lisiewicz and French, 2000; Simalis et al., 2001; U.S. Navy, 2004). The present study deals with the effect of Reynolds numbers on hydrodynamic forces acting on Manta UUV at large angles of attack. The large angles of attack cover the whole range of 0 to ${\pm}$ 180 degrees in horizontal plane and in vertical plane respectively. Static test at large attack angles has been carried out with two Manta UUV models in circulating water channel. The authors assume that the experimental results of hydrodynamic forces (lateral force, yaw moment, vertical force and pitch moment) are analyzed into two components, which are lift force component and cross-flow drag component. First of all, Based on two dimensional cross-flow drag coefficient at 90 degrees of attack angle, the cross-flow drag component at whole range of attack angles is calculated. Then the remainder is assumed to be the lift force component. The only cross-flow drag component is assumed to be subject to Reynolds number.entstly the authors suggest the methodology to predict hydrodynamic derivertives acting on the full-scale Manta UUV.

A numerical method is presented which can solve the steady flow and heat transfer from a rotating and heated circular cylinder in a uniform flow for a range of Reynolds number form 5 to 100. The steady response of the flow and heat transfer is simulated for various spin parameter. The effects on the flow field and heat transfer characteristics known as lift, drag and heat transfer coefficient are analyzed and the streamlines, velocity vectors, vorticity, temperature distributions around it were scrutinized numerically. As spin parameter increases the region of separation vortex becomes smaller than upper one and the lower region will vanish. The lift force, a large part is due to the pressure force, increases as the Reynolds number and it increases linearly as spin parameter increases. The pressure coefficient changes rapidly with spin parameter on the lower surface of the cylinder and the vorticity is sensitive to the spin parameter near separation region. As spin parameter increases the maximum heat coefficient and the thin thermal layer on front region are moved to direction of rotation. However, with balance between the local increase and decrease, the overal heat transfer coefficient is almost unaffected by rotation.
