강원도 혹한지역에 설치된 ACSR cable(Aluminium Conductor Steel Reinforced, 강심 알루미늄 연선)에 겔러핑(Galloping), 슬릿점핑(Sleet jumping) 등 빙설해로 인한 단전 및 단락 사고가 발생하여 전력망 운영에 심각한 문제를 초래하고 있다. 특히, 빙설해로 인한 정전사고는 전기 품질의 저하 뿐만 아니라, 국지적으로 발생하여 광범위하게 영향을 미치기 때문에 이에 대한 대응 및 예방기술이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 ACSR cable의 원 소재인 알루미늄 합금(Al 6061)을 대상으로 낮은 표면에너지를 갖는 결빙방지 코팅소재로 표면처리하여 결빙방지 성능을 향상하고자 하였다. 코팅소재와 얼음과의 접합특성은 결빙접합 특성 시험기를 사용하여 정량적으로 측정하였으며 시험기의 신뢰성 확보를 위해 FEM Modeling을 수행하였다. 결빙특성 지표인 ARF(Adhesion reduction factor)를 적용하여 소재별 결빙방지 효과를 비교 평가하였다. 코팅소재는 현재 해외 국내에서 상용화되고 있는 소수성, 초소수성 소재를 선정하였으며, 결빙접합강도와 매우 밀접하게 연관되어 있는 표면 에너지, 표면 거칠기와의 상관관계를 분석함으로써 결빙방지 코팅소재의 적합성을 평가하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 상온 경화형 실리콘 러버 코팅소재는 원 소재 Al 대비 약 8~9배 낮은 탁월한 방빙성(Anti-icing) 효과를 나타내었으며, 내구성 또한 상용소재 대비 우수한 특성을 나타내었다.

Modem rotorcraft is required to have the capability to operate in all-weather conditions. Also icing condition is important issue to aircraft safety and certification. And rotorcraft icing research has come a long way during the past few decades. The aircraft icing is the most difficult to handle. So, icing-related accidents, incidents and operating problems still occur regularly in service, despite improvements in design and test techniques. By reviewing icing certification requirement of FAR(Federal Aviation Regulations) and KAS(Korean Airworthiness Standard), this paper describes methods how to demonstrate safety in the flight and consideration of icing when rotorcraft is required TC(Type Certification).

In the cold region, road surface is frequently frozen, resulting in property/facility damage as well as people's death. In order to prevent the road surface from being frozen, conventional deicing methods such as salt, geothermal, and electric wires have been widely used. However, theses methods have some problems such as anti-environment, high-construction and -maintenance cost and so on. To improve the drawbacks of aforementioned methods, carbon nanotube (CNT) was used as an heating material in the laboratory test. Through the test, heat transferring effect of CNT on the concrete slab was investigated and maximum interval of CNT installation was determined.

When freezing is present on ballast water, it can impose additional loads on the hull and effect on stabilization of ship. The anti-icing techniques of ballast water, therefore, are key criteria for ship safety. The existing anti-icing techniques of ballast tank are hull heating, water circulation and air bubble system etc. In this research, anti-icing performance tests for the ballast water using micro-bubble system and sea water circulation system have been carried out at two temperature conditions($-10^{\circ}C$ and $-25^{\circ}C$). Ambient temperature, sea water temperature and temperature of the inner parts of the ballast tank are measured and also ballast water conditions are checked during the model test. The applied anti-icing techniques of ballast water, such as micro-bubble system and sea water circulation system show good performance in the low temperature conditions.

Aircraft ice protection systems are applied to the window shield, engine inlet, and wings to protect the aircraft from ice that may form on the surfaces of aircraft and sensors during operation. Icing on the aircraft can cause serious accidents by degrading the flight stability of the aircraft and by malfunctions in sensors such as the air data probe. Various types of ice protection systems have been developed for aircraft in the past. The electro-thermal type ice protection system contributes greatly to improving energy efficiency in a relatively simple structure, and has established itself as one of most popular ice protection systems for modern aircraft. In this review, two representative ice protection systems-hot-air and electro-thermal types-were intensively analyzed, and the prospect of ice protection systems was discussed based on the current status and application cases.

Computational fluid dynamics was used to develop a heat-recovery ventilator for preventing freezing in cold weather. An optimal internal return damper was applied, and a prototype was made for frost and freezing experiments. A total of 16 models were used to design the optimal internal return damper with the maximum exhaust recirculation ratio. The exhaust recirculation ratio of the exhaust air to the outdoor air was 59.9-62.3%. The tests showed that frost and freezing did not occur at outdoor air temperatures of $-15^{\circ}C$ or higher in both exhaust recirculation operation and normal operation. However, at an outdoor air temperature of $-20^{\circ}C$, no freezing occurred in the outdoor air area when the internal return damper was opened by 45 degrees. Heat recovery ventilators for preventing cold weather frost and freezing should be operated in two operation modes: normal and exhaust recirculation mode. An operating algorithm was developed for the heat-recovery ventilator operating in normal mode when the outdoor temperature is higher than $-15^{\circ}C$ and recirculation mode when the temperature is lower.

This paper presents a method to deice concrete pavement with carbon nanotube(CNT) as an heating material so as to avoid the adverse effects of conventional deicing method such as salt on the structure, function and environment. To this end, laboratory tests integrated with numerical simulations were conducted. In the laboratory tests, the CNT was embedded inside the concrete slab and generated the heat up to the target temperature of $60^{\circ}C$ in the freezer at temperature of $-10^{\circ}C$. Then, the surface temperature was measured to investigate how far the heat transfers on the surface at temperature of above $0^{\circ}C$. Also, three different spacings of 15, 20 and 30cm between CNTs were conducted to determine the maximum allowable spacing of CNT. Along with these experimental tests, heat transferring analysis conducted to validate the test results.

Field tests with carbon fiber heating wire (CFHW) embedded inside concrete slab were performed to present the alternative heating material capable of avoid the adverse effects of traditional de-freezing salt on the structures and environment. The CFHW was inserted into the concrete slab in the shape of 'ㄷ' to improve the heat superposition and the temperature on the surface was measured using iButton. The results showed that the temperature where the CFHW's were faced with each other increased to above zero after 12-hour at outdoor air temperature of $-6^{\circ}C$. Comparatively, the temperature slightly increased where the CFHW was embedded on one side because the heat was not superimposed. Hence, it can be said that the CFHW is a suitable heating material to prevent the concrete road from being frozen.

The Helicopter MRA Control Rod System has the important function of controlling the speed, height, and direction of helicoptersby adjusting the main rotor disc. However, the ingress of water into the inner control rod can cause ice damage in the rod during winter operation and also corrosion;these defects need to be rectified. The water flowed into the control rod through the upper side space, and the rod was cracked during icing expansion occurring at low temperature. The corrosion occurred due to the lack of coating process during the manufacturing process. To resolve these problems, the upper rod was sealed to prevent water inflow and a coating process was added to prevent corrosion. These solutions were verified by awaterproof test and a salt fog test. The phenomena, causes and measures were reviewed and the methods of improvement were established and proven. This proposed technology to prevent water infiltration and corrosion will contribute to the safety of rotary wing aircraft.
