Increase of pore fluid pressure resulting from injection of $CO_2$ may reactivate pre-existing faults, and the induced seismic activities can raise the safety issues such as seal integrity, restoration of storage capacity, and, in the worst case, removal of previously injected $CO_2$. Thus, fault stability and potential for $CO_2$ leakage need to be assessed at the stage of site selection and planning of injection pressure, based on the results of large-scale site investigations and numerical modeling for various scenarios. In this report, studies on the assessment of fault stability during injection of $CO_2$ were reviewed. The seismic activities associated with an artificial injection of fluids or a release of naturally trapped high-pressure fluids were first examined, and then site investigation methods for the magnitude and orientation of in situ stresses, the distribution and change of pore fluid pressure, and the location of faults were generally summarized. Recent research cases on possibility estimation of fault reactivation, prediction of seismic magnitude, and modeling of $CO_2$ leakage through a reactivated fault were presented.

A highly viscous biopolymer from alkali-tolerant Bacillus sp. was purified and its rheological properties were studied. 1% (w/v) solution of purified biopolymer showed pseudoplastic fluid behavior with the yield stress similar to those of xanthan and guar gum, and its consistency index was exponentially dependent on concentration and temperature. The concentration dependency of consistency index exhibited two rectilinear plots with different slopes at 1% concentration and pseudoplastic property increased with the increase of biopolymer concentration. The biopolymer solution exhibited a low temperature dependency and the activation energy of flow was 1.16 kacl/g mol. The apparent viscosity was very dependent on the change of pH and the addition of salt. However, no organic solvent effects were observed effects of viscosity synergism with the addition of viscosifier were not observed.

Role of the perforated pipe is to drain the water with equal pressure and velocity through the holes of perforated pipe. The perforated pipe is being used in many processes of water treatment system, however, the design parameter of perforated pipe is not standardized in korea. In this study, we have found the design parameter of perforated pipe in the water treatment system using the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The uniformity of outflow from the perforated pipe is directly affected according to area ratio (gross area of holes/surface area of the perforated pipe). In other words, the uniformity of outflow is improved as area ratio is smaller. Also, at the same area ratio, the uniformity of outflow is improved as number of holes is increase. Specially, in case of the two holes per length of pipe diameter (2/D) shows the most uniformity of outflow and the best hydraulic with the smaller pressure drop. When the inlet velocity of pipe is about 0.06m/sec, the flux of pipe has decreased as from front to backward. When the inlet velocity is 3 m/s, the flux of pipe has increased as from front to backward.

The safety valve used in LNG/LNG-FPSO ships plays an important role in maintaining a fixed level of pressure by emitting LNG gas out of the pipes in the LNG piping system. The discharge coefficient is regarded as the most important factor in the valve performance. To satisfy the ship's classification, the discharge coefficient of the safety valve must usually be over 0.8. Despite the importance of understanding the flow phenomena inside the safety valve, the valve design is usually based on experience and experiments. We carried out a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) investigation using the ANSYS-CFX software. We observed the flow phenomena inside the valve and measured the discharge coefficients according to changes in the valve lift, which is the distance between the exit of the nozzle and the lower part of the disc plate. We verified our CFD results for the discharge coefficients using available experimental data.

세계경제가 만성적으로 저미한 상태에서, 전세계적으로 자동차 생산도 크게 성장하기를 바랄 수 없는 상황이 계속 되고 있다. 한편, 승용차의 기술면에서는, 배기가스 규제대응기술의 개발이 일 단락되고, 석유사정도 일단은 안정상태를 유지하고 있는 가운데, 자동차 본래의 기능 및 유용성을 높이기위한 기술개발에 힘을 기울여 왔다. 승용차의 구동방식에 대해서도 FF(Front Engine, Front Drive)방식이 세계적인 추세이고, 더욱이 4WD(사윤구동차)의 보급이 주목되고 있다. 또 이지 드라이브(Easy Drive)화에의 움직임도 강하여 AT(Automatic Transmission, 자동변속기)가 부착된 자동차의 비율이 검증하고 있으며, 유체토오크 컨버어터(Fluid Torque Converter)와 유 성치차장치(Planetary gear)식의 변속 장치를 조합한 AT는 전자제어기술에 의한 정확한 제어로 그 완성도가 더욱더 높아지고 있다. 또 종래로부터 새로운 AT로서의 기술동향이 주목되고 있 었든 CVT(무단변속기)도 실용화 기술의 개발이 진척되어 일부 양산화 모델의 발표도 있으며, CVT가 AT중에서 그위치를 크게 차지하게 될 날도 머지않은 것으로 생각된다. 이하 근년 관심이 높아지고 있는 4WD 및 AT를 중심으로 승용차의 구동방식과 그 기구의 동향을 해설하기로 한다.

전기투석은 역삼투압, 한외여과와 함께 가장 많이 이용되고 막공정 중의 하나이다. 전기투석은 다른 막공정과 같이 막의 선택성에 의한 분리조작이며 병렬식 배열에 의한 막의 이용이 가능하고 막오염 현상이 있으며 따라서 막-유체간의 접촉에 대한 제어가 필요하다. 전기투석은 운전목적에 따라 desalting electrodialysis(ED)와 water-splitting electrodiaiysis(WSED)로 구분할 수 있다. Desalting electrodialysis는 고전적 의미의 탈염을 위한 전기투석공정이며 WSED는 bipolar membrane을 이용하여 염을 산과 염기로 분리시키는 기능을 갖는 전기투석 공정을 말한다. WSED는 전기적으로 물을 분리한다는 의미로서 Electrohydrolysis로 불리기도 한다. WSED의 기본원리는 bipolar membrane의 양쪽면에서 수소이옹과 수산이온을 발생시켜 산 또는 염기용액으로 전달하고 bipolar membrane에 접하고 있는 양이온 또는 음이온 교환막에서는 각 용액의 전기적 중성을 유지하기 위해 대응하는 이온을 투과시키는 것이다. WSED는 염으로부터 산 염기제조 뿐만아니라 염의 형태로 생성되는 유기산, 아미노산 등 발효생성물의 회수 또는 acidification에 이용되고 있다.

계면활성제용액에 서로 다른 기능을 하는 두 종류의 첨가제를 투입하여 미셀의 미 세구조 전이현상을 규명하였다. 양이온 계면활성제는 CMC 이상의 농도에서 2단계의 미세 구조 전이거동을 나타낸다. 우선 구형 미셀은 첨가제의 투입에 의하여 표면에서의 친수성기 간의 반발력이 감소됨으로써 실린더형 또는 디스크형미셀로 전이가 일어난다. 더욱 농도가 증가하면 이방성을 가지는 실린더형 미셀간의 중첩 또는 hooking 현상에 의한 두 번째 전 이가 일어난다. 이때 미셀 용액은 흔히 점탄성을 나타내거나 확연한 비뉴톤성 유체거동을 나타낸다. 본 연구에선 heptanol의 화확구조적 차이가 물성에 나타내는효과를 규명하고 wormlike 미셀을 형성하는 MaSal에 의한 점탄성 거동을 살펴보았다. Heptanol의 화학구조 의 영향을 보면 약친수성기인 OH기가 알킬그룹과 나란하게 존재하여 밀집된 구조를 가지 기 쉬운 primary heptanol이 가장효과적으로 미세구조 전이를 유도함을 관찰하였다. 다른 이성질 hetanol의 경우 secondary heptanol이 teriary heptanol에 비하여 효과적임을 보이지 만 화학재할수 있는 농도범위가 매우 좁아 대부분 영역에서 비뉴톤성거동을 나타냄을 확인 하였다. 즉 NaSal를 사용한 경우 실린더형 미셀이 존재할 수 있는농도범위가 매우 좁아 대 부분 영역에서 비뉴톤성 거동을 나타냄을 확인하였다. 즉 NaSal 이 첨가된 용액은 선형점탄 성거동을 보이며 몰비가 증가함에 따라 scission 과정이 관찰되었다. 또한 몰농도비에 따라 항복응력과 shear thickening 특징을 보이는데 이는 흐름장의 세기에 따라 미세구조 변화가 일어나기 때문이다.

Here, we develop a centrifugal microfluidic reactor with simple, fast, and high-throughput manner for the generation of magnetic Janus micro-adsorbents (MAs). By using the multi-micronozzle consisting of two separate aligned needles and centrifugal tubes, we have synthesized highly monodispersed Prussian blue- and magnetic nanoparticle-laden micro-adsorbents (PB-MNP-MAs). The enhanced cesium (Cs⁺) adsorption was demonstrated by conducting the adsorption isotherm and kinetics experiment which can be contributed to the porous nature of the Ca-alginate networks with a high surface area of embedded PB nanoparticles, resulting to perform rapid adsorption activity within 10 min. After Cs⁺ adsorption process, the as-synthesized PB-MNP-MAs were successfully harvested by introducing the external magnetic fields. Therefore, we believe that our findings can be provided new direction towards the development of advanced functional adsorbents in biological and environmental fields.

Offshore wind turbines are divided into an upper wind turbine and a lower support structure. Offshore wind turbine system is required to secure high reliability for a variety of external environmental conditions compared to ground wind turbines because of additional periodic loads due to ocean wave and current effects. In this study, extreme load analyses have been conducted for the designed offshore wind turbine foundation with weight control functionality using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) then structural analyses have been also conducted to investigate the structural design requirement.
