비정상 이동격자 기법을 이용한 5인치급 프로펠러의 공력성능 분석 Analysis of Aerodynamic Performance of 5-inch Propeller using an Unsteady Moving Mesh Technique
pp.1085-1090
In this study, the analysis of the unsteady viscous flow field using the uRANS equation in a moving mesh was studied. The simulation domain is composed of an overset zone fixed to a propeller and rotating at a constant angular speed and a far zone which is located in the far distance and does not move. Each zone is composed of a polyhedral meshes for the accurate and robust gradient calculation in addition to the reduction of computation time. Simulation technique was applied to the aerodynamic analysis of the 5-inch propeller and compared with those of the MRF and the thrust test. The thrust predicted by the moving mesh showed good correlation with the MRF result within 0.5% difference, but the torque showed a tendency to under-prediction by about 10% compared to the MRF. In the future, we plan to further validate the numerical analysis technique using the moving mesh by applying it to the configurations in which precise test results exist.
