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.

Icing problem of ice-strengthened vessels is an important issue when operating in low temperature environment and it can cause damage to deck machineries and emergency equipments. Many ice-strengthened vessels have since been constructed and operated in accordance with the ice class rules such as Det Norske Veritas (DNV), Russian Maritime Register of Shipping (RS), American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) and so on. Therefore winterization is defined as the preparation of a ship for safe operation. In this research, anti-icing performance tests of weather-tight door have been carried out at various temperature conditions($5^{\circ}C$, $-10^{\circ}C$, $-20^{\circ}C$, $-30^{\circ}C$, $-40^{\circ}C$) in the low temperature cold room facility and then, ambient temperature, specimen temperature, electric current and temperature of heating cable were measured during the test operations. This research describes the construction guidelines of weather-tight door based on anti-icing test results to apply to the full-scale vessels.

Mountain trams are an environmental-friendly transportation system that run wirelessly on an embedded track constructed on previous mountain roads, and can run despite the frozen road. On the other hand, there is some difficulty on sharp and steep tracks. In this study, after possible technical problems were defined in mountain trams running on a sharp and steep track, the design solutions for the interface structure of bogie and carbody were proposed. In addition, a prototype was made and its performance was tested to verify the solutions. Because the difference in the distance of the inner and outer rails on a sharp curve is severe enough to interrupt running, independent rotating wheels with different angular speeds were developed and applied. To prevent derailment due to the large attack angle and lateral force caused by the previous vehicle of 2bogie-and-1carbody on the sharp curve, a vehicle with 1bogie-and-1carbody was designed and applied. A prototype vehicle of 1bogie-and-1carbody with independent rotating wheels was made to improve the performance during the test running on a small track. A coupler was designed to absorb the large rotations of 3 degrees-of-freedom between the carbodies of a mountain tram running on the steep curved track. After a small scale prototype was made, the performance was verified by a function test.

This study was conducted to develop an on-line monitoring system for a forest hydrological environment and its meteorological condition, such as temperature, wind direction and speed, rainfall and water level on V-notch, electrical conductivity(EC), potential of hydrogen(PH) by the motor drive sensor unit and measurement with a single-chip microprocessor as controller. These results are summarized as follows ; 1. The monitoring system consists of a signal process unit, motor drive sensor unit, radio modem unit and power supply. 2. The motor drive sensor unit protects the sensor from swift current or freezing and can constantly maintain fixed water level during measurements. 3. This monitoring system can transfer the data by radio modem. Additionally, this system can monitor hydrological conditions in real time. 4. The hardware was made of several modules with an independent CPU. They can be mounted, removed, repaired and added to. Their function can be changed and expanded. 5. These are the result of an accuracy test, the values of temperature, EC and pH measured within an error range of ${\pm}0.2^{\circ}C$, ${\pm}1{\mu}S$ and ${\pm}0.1pH$ respectively. 6. This monitoring system proved to be able to measure various factors for a forest hydrological environment in various experimental stations.
