In the present study, aerodynamic load analysis for a floating off-shore wind turbine was conducted to examine the effect of periodic platform motion in the direction of 6-DOF on rotor aerodynamic performance. Blade-element momentum method(BEM) was used for a numerical simulation, the unsteady airload effects due to the flow separation and the shed wake were considered by adopting a dynamic stall model based on the indicial response method. Rotor induced downwash was estimated using the momentum theory, coupled with empirical corrections for the turbulent wake states. The periodic platform motions including the translational motion in the heave, sway and surge directions and the rotational motion in the roll, pitch and yaw directions were considered, and each platform motion was applied as a sinusoidal function. For the numerical simulation, NREL 5MW reference wind turbine was used as the target wind turbine. The results showed that among the translation modes, the surge motion has the largest influence on changing the rotor airloads, while the effect of pitch motion is predominant for the rotations.

하천에서 유량을 산정하기 위해서 전자파표면유속계를 이용하여 표면유속을 측정하고 수심평균유속환산계수 0.85를 일률적으로 적용하여 수심평균유속을 산정하고 있다. 이 수심평균유속환산계수 0.85의 적절성에 대한 논의가 지속되어져 왔으나 그 동안에는 이에 대한 현장검증을 할 수 있는 방법이 없었던 실정이다. 하지만 최근 들어서는 ADCP(Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler)의 하천용 Application인 StreamPro ADCP가 개발되어 이를 이용하면 홍수기에 수심별 유속을 측정할 수 있다. 다만 홍수기에 StreamPro ADCP의 적용시에는 여러 가지 높은 위험성이 상존하는 것은 인지의 사실이지만, 그 외의 별다른 방법이 없는 실정이다. 따라서 홍수기에 StreamPro ADCP를 이용하여 수심별 유속을 측정하고 이와 동시에 측정한 표면유속을 이용하여 수심평균유속환산계수를 산정하여 기존에 환산계수로 적용하고 있는 0.85의 적절성을 파악하고자 하였다. 흐름조건별 수심평균유속환산계수 산정을 위하여 평수기 용담 수자원시험유역의 동향지점에서 수심평균유속환산계수를 산정한 결과 0.632~1.352로 넓게 분포하고 있음을 파악하였다. 이렇게 계수가 실제 적용하는 0.85와는 크게 차이가 나는 이유로는 수심이 얕아서 바닥마찰의 영향이 크기 때문인 것으로 판단되었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 여러 지점에서 홍수기 수심별 유속의 실측을 통하여 수심평균유속환산계수 분포정도를 산정하고자 하였다. 대청댐 상류의 수통수위표가 위치해 있는 적벽대교지점에서 StreamPro ADCP를 이용하여 수심평균유속환산계수를 산정한 결과 0.735~0.986 사이에 분포하고 있다. 측정한 결과의 수심평균유속환산계수의 평균값은 0.853으로 기존에 수심평균유속의 산정을 위하여 적용하고 있는 0.85와 거의 일치함을 보이고 있다. 측정당시 수심이 3.6 m에 이르고 있고 유속 또한 1.55 m/s에 이르고 있어 홍수시 일반하천에서 발생하는 수위와 유속임을 감안할 때, 0.735~0.986의 수심평균유속환산계수는 홍수시 순간적인 변화의 폭이 큼을 알 수 있다. 이렇게 순간적인 변화가 큰 이유로는 난류의 성분이 강해서 나타나는 것으로 이를 평균하면 0.853으로 나타나고 있어 홍수시에 수심평균유속환산계수를 0.85를 사용하여도 무방함을 알 수 있다. 동향지점에서 홍수기에 수심별 유속의 실측을 통하여 수심평균유속환산계수를 산정하고자 하였다. 그러나 이 지점은 강한 와류로 인하여 ADCP가 심하게 흔들림으로 인하여 순간적인 유속의 차이가 최대 4배까지 보임을 알 수 있다. 이로 인하여 수심평균유속환산계수의 범위는 0.233~0.983에 이른다. 측정당시 표면유속이 2.07 m/s 인 것을 감안하여 이 표면유속에 상응하는 수심별 유속 자료만을 이용하여 산정시, 수심평균유속환산계수는 0.876이다. 하천의 하류지점에서 수심별 유속을 측정하여 수심평균유속환산계수를 산정하고자 한강하류로 유입하는 굴포천의 구교 및 박촌1교 지점에서 유속측정을 실시하였다. 이들 두 지점은 홍수기에 조차도 유속이 1 m/s 에 이르지 못하는 지점으로, 수심평균유속환산계수를 산정한 결과 각각 0.826, 0.833을 나타내고 있어, 수심평균유속환산계수 0.85가 홍수기뿐만 아니라 평 갈수기에도 적용할 수 있는 가능성을 확인하였다.

Global robust diagnostic models are established based on MOM of GFDL to study the circulation in the world ocean. The horizontal grid sizes 1/2 degree, and the vertical water column is divided into 21 levels. The hydrographic data are taken from Levitus et al.(1994) and the wind stress from Hellerman and Rosenstein (1983). Based on the model results the horizontal volume, heat and salt transports across some representative sections are calculated. The preliminary results show that Though the cross-equator volume transports in the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans are all small, the heat transports across equator in the Atlantic are northward. This is clearly a result of the southward flow of the North Atlantic Deep Water and the northward compensating warm flow in the upper layer. The annual mean of the cross-equator heat transport in the Pacific Ocean from the present model is significantly lower than that calculated by Philander et at. (1987). This might indicate the importance of the Indonesian Throughflow in the heat transport in the Pacific Ocean. Our calculation shows that the heat transport through the Indonesian Archipelago is 0.5 PW, which is comparable with the poleward heat transport in the North Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The difference in heat transports across the sections 5 and 6 demonstrates the important role of the Agulhas Current in the heat balance of the world ocean.

We conducted a field survey to analyze the ecological structure and spatial distribution of microplankton (phytoplankton and ciliates) in relation to water masses at 21 stations on the surface and chlorophyll-a maximum layers (CML) in the Northern East China Sea (nECS; 32°-33°N; 124°00'-127°30'E) from August 3 to August 6, 2019. The results showed that the water masses were divided into Chinese Coastal Waters (CCW) and the Tsushima Warm Current (TWC). The CCW showed the environmental characteristics of high temperature and low salinity, and the TWC showed high temperature and high salinity. The characteristics of the phytoplankton community in the CCW showed various community structures related to the nutrients supplied from the large rivers of the Chinese continent. However, the TWC had simple community structures because it originated near the equator and moved northward. The standing crops of phytoplankton and ciliates were very high in the CCW but showed low at the TWC. In particular, from the higher standing crops of protozoa than plant plankton at the TWC, the energy flow at the lower tropic levels caused by the microbial loop that fed on heterotrophic bacteria played an important role in the production of resource organisms. In other words, the marine ecological structure of the nECS in summer could be estimated as a bottom-up system at the CCW and a top-down system at the TWC.

We investigated the performance of a jet loop reactor (JLR) with the two-fluid venturi-type swirl nozzle (TVSN) during experiment for ammonia removal by air stripping from a synthetic wastewater, and compared it with that of a JLR with the two-fluid venturi-type conventional nozzle (TVCN), with the variation of pH, liquid circulation rate ($Q_L$), and air flow rate ($Q_G$). Their performance levels were compared based on the ammonia removal efficiency and overall mass transfer coefficient ($K_La$). Investigated parameters in a JLR were pH (10-12), air flow rate ($Q_G=5-20L\;min^{-1}$), and liquid circulation rate ($Q_L=25-35L\;min^{-1}$). Throughout the experiment, the ammonia removal efficiency and $K_La$ in a JLR with TVSN was higher than in a JLR with TVCN. This may be due to the enhanced turbulent intensity by swirling flow formed in the JLR with TVSN compared to that with TVCN. Further, we obtained higher $K_La$ when pH, $Q_L$ and $Q_G$ were increased. In particular, $K_La$ was increased more efficiently by increasing $Q_G$ than by increasing pH and $Q_L$.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the enhancement of heat transfer without additional external power in the case of rectangular impingement air jet vertically on the flat heating surface. The technique used in the present study was placement of square rod bundles as a turbulence promoter in front of the heat transfer surface. The results obtained through this study were summerized as follws. High heat transfer enhancement was achieved by inserting rods in front of the heating flat plate. According to visulaization, it was examined because of flow acceleration and separation and disturbance of boundary layer. The smaller clerance between rod and heating plate was, the larger heat transfer effect became at each H/B. Arverage Nusselt number reached maximum at H/B=10 and the local augmentation rate of heat transfer became maximum at H/B=2. The maximum average heat transfer enhancement rate increase about 43% for the case of X/B=2 and C=1mm, compared to a flat plate without rods. The correlating equation of average Nusselt number and Reynolds number was obatined. As follws : ${\overline{Nu}}_0=1.249Re^{0.465}(C/A)^{-0.033}(H/B)^{0.013}$.

It was found that mixing patterns suddenly changed at an impeller rotation speed in a dished bottom vessel with dual Rushton turbines. Two isolated mixing regions like doughnuts rings generated at a low rotational speed and three isolated mixing regions generated at a higher speed. This phenomenon was observed at the mixing condition in transition area, where the power number with baffle was the same as that without baffle. We found a phenomenon in which the flow state in a dish-bottom agitation tank equipped with a two-stage Rushton turbine blade changes at a certain rotational speed. In the laminar flow region, the isolated stable donut rings were formed even when the rotational speed was changed, and no specific variation in the mixing pattern was observed. In the transition region, the two isolated thick unmixed donut rings do not change even if the rotation speed is changed in the flat bottom vessel, whereas in the dished bottom vessel, when the rotation speed is 450 rpm, the two isolated thick unmixed donut rings are changed to three isolated thin donut rings and then improved mixing. In the dished bottom vessel, in the range of Re=138~178, the isolated ring-shaped unmixed region appeared in three places and the size was also large. But in the flat bottom vessel, the isolated thick ring-shaped unmixed region appeared in two places in Re=116~176 and the size was also small. It appeared in two places, and the size was also small. The condition in which this phenomenon is observed is a transition region, and it was found that when the baffle plate is attached, the power number starts to increase compared to when the baffle plate is not present. In addition, when the mixing Reynolds number exceeded 300 and a slight turbulence was mixed in the flow state, the disconnection of these flow pattern was resolved and the mixture was completely mixed.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the High Rate Spiral Clarifier(HRSC) availability for the improvement of polluted retention pond water quality. A lab scale and a pilot scale test was performed for this. The fluid flow patterns in a HRSC were studied using Fluent which is one of the computational fluid dynamic(CFD) programs, with inlet velocity and inlet diameter, length of body($L_B$) and length of lower cone(Lc), angle and gap between the inverted sloping cone, the lower exit hole installed or not installed. A pilot scale experimental apparatus was made on the basis of the results from the fluid flow analysis and lab scale test, then a field test was executed for the retention pond. In the study of inside fluid flow for the experimental apparatus, we found out that the inlet velocity had a greater effect on forming spiral flow than inlet flow rate and inlet diameter. There was no observable effect on forming spiral flow LB in the range of 1.2 to $1.6D_B$(body diameter) and Lc in the range of 0.35 to $0.5L_B$, but decreased the spiral flow with a high ratio of $L_B/D_B$ 2.0, $Lc/L_B$ 0.75. As increased the angle of the inverted sloping cone, velocity gradually dropped and evenly distributed in the inverted sloping cone. The better condition was a 10cm distance of the inverted sloping cone compared to 20cm to prevent turbulent flow. The condition that excludes the lower exit hole was better to prevent channeling and to distribute effluent flow rate evenly. From the pilot scale field test it was confirmed that particulate matters were effectively removed, therefore, this apparatus could be used for one of the plans to improve water quality for a large water body such as retention ponds.
