Quantitative analysis on release behavior of the $^{85}Kr\;and\;^{14}C$ fission gases from the spent fuel material during the voloxidation and OREOX process has been performed. This thermal treatment step in a remote fabrication process to fabricate the dry-processed fuel from spent fuel has been used to obtain a fine powder The fractional release percent of fission gases from spent fuel materials with burn-up ranges from 27,000 MWd/tU to 65,000 MWd/tU have been evaluated by comparing the measured data with these initial inventories calculated by ORIGEN code. The release characteristics of $^{85}Kr\;and\;^{14}C$ fission gases during the voloxidation process at $500^{\circ}C$ seem to be closely linked to the degree of conversion efficiency of $UO_2\;to\;U_3O_8$ powder, and it is thus interpreted that the release from grain-boundary would be dominated during this step. The high release fraction of the fission gas from an oxidized powder during the OREOX process would be due to increase both in the gas diffusion at a temperature of $500^{\circ}C$ in a reduction step and in U atom mobility by the reduction. Therefore, it is believed that the fission gases release inventories in the OREOX step come from the inter-grain and inter-grain on $UO_2$ matrix. It is shown that the release fraction of $^{85}Kr\;and\;^{14}C$ fission gases during the voloxidation step would be increased as fuel burn-up increases, ranging from 6 to 12%, and a residual fission gas would completely be removed during the OREOX step. It seems that more effective treatment conditions for a removal of volatile fission gas are of powder formation by the oxidation in advance than the reduction of spent fuel at the higher temperature.

The objective of this work is to investigate the turbulent reacting flow in a three dimensional combustor with emphasis on thermal NO emission through a numerical simulation. Flow field is analyzed using the SIMPLE method which is known as stable as well as accurate in the combustion modeling, and the finite volume method is adopted in solving the radiative transfer equation. In this work, the thermal characteristics and NO emission in a three dimensional combustor by changing parameters such as equivalence ratio and inlet swirl angle have investigated. As the equivalence ratio increases, which means that more fuel is supplied due to a larger inlet fuel velocity, the flame temperature increases and the location of maximum temperature and thermal NO has moved towards downstream. In the mean while, the existence of inlet swirl velocity makes the fuel and combustion air more completely mixed and burnt in short distance. Therefore, the locations of the maximum reaction rate, temperature and thermal NO were shifted to forward direction compared with the case of no swirl.

The role of the injector as an acoustic resonator is studied for the high performance rocket engine adopting the gas-liquid scheme injector. Acoustic behavior in the combustor with single injector is investigated numerically adopting linear acoustic analysis for cold condition. Acoustic-damping effect of the injector is evaluated by damping factor as a function of the injector length. From the numerical results, it is found that the injector can play a significant role in acoustic damping and the optimum length of the injector corresponds to half of a full wavelength of the longitudinal mode with the acoustic frequency to be damped in the chamber. In baffled chamber, the optimum lengths of the injector are calculated as a function of baffle length for both cold and hot conditions.

Acoustic coupling between combustion chamber and gas-liquid scheme injectors are studied numerically in liquid rocket engine adopting linear acoustic analysis. The injectors can play a role as half-wave resonators. The combustion chamber with numerous injectors shows peculiar acoustic coupling with the injectors. As the injector length approaches a half wavelength or the original tuning length, new injector-coupled acoustic modes show up in the chamber and thereby, the acoustic-damping effect of the tuned injectors is appreciably degraded.

A linear acoustic analysis is performed to explore the characteristics of acoustic damping by a gas-liquid scheme coaxial injector in a liquid rocket engine. The injector can play a role of acoustic resonator. Acoustic-damping characteristics of half-wave resonator are compared with those of quarter-wave resonator. Various effects of the boundary absorption coefficient, injector length and sound speed in combustion chamber and resonator are investigated. As a result, short tuning length of resonator and low sound speed of the medium have a favorable effect on acoustic damping. As the boundary absorption coefficient decreases, the tuning range of the resonator length becomes narrower.

The objective of this paper is to observe effects of an ignition position and time on the ignition transition. A gaseous oxygen and liquid kerosene are used for propellants with the shear-coaxial injector. In order to study the ignition delay time and combustion instability intensity, the pressure transducer was used. The ignition position was changed with the injector spacer. Sequences except the igniter operation time were fixed to compare the ignition time only. Initial pressure peak and ignition delay time increased as the ignition time was delayed. Also, the unstable flame development zone was detected as the igniter was away from the injector.

주위기체와 다른 기체를 간헐적으로 또는 단발로 분사한 경우, 분류내의 분사체의 농도는 시간에 따라 급격히 변화한다. 수ms인 전자식기체 채취밸브를 이용해서 기체를 채취하고, 가스마토그 라프 등에 의해 가스분석을 행하는 방법이 있고 주로 피스톤식 내연기관의 연소실내 농도의 측 정에 이용되고 있다. 이 방법은 밸브 열립시간을 단축시켜도 약 1ms가 한도이고 시간분해능력도 1ms정도가 최단시간이다. 또 동일한 장소에서 농도의 시간경과를 얻는 데에는 각각의 시간에 대해서 기체의 채취와 분석을 행하지 않으면 안되어 실제시간의 농도측정이 불가능하다는 결점이 있다. 최근 레이저 응용기술의 진보에 의해 라만산란, 레리산란, CARS법 등의 농도순간측정이 가능해지고 있고, 점차 현실화되어가고 있다. 이들의 방법은 국소의 순간농도뿐만 아니라 온도의 동시측정도 가능하게 하는 특징을 갖고있다. 그러나 레이저에 의한 측정장치는 현시정에서는 아직 가격이 고가이고 광학계의 설치 등, 실험상의 조작이 복잡한 것 등의 결점을 갖고 있다. 본 고에서는 최근 진전이 현저하고 실용화에 대한 확신을 갖고 있는 열선농도Probe에 의한 순간농 도의 측정방법을 소개하고자 한다.

여과포에 의한 분진 포집기술은 다른 분진포집기술에 비해 가장 우수한 집진성능을 나타낼수 있는 집진기술로서 최근에 와서는 분진발생공정, 연소설비 및 폐기물 소각설비의 중금속 물질, 유해 기체 및 분진의 동시포집 적용 등 광범위한 산업분야에 적응되어 운전되고 있다. 배출기체의 악조건과 습도가 다량 함유된 조건에서는 여과포 집진장치의 적용이 어렵다고 생각되고 있지만, 처리 기체의 조건 및 포집분진의 특성에 적합한 여과포의 개발과 탈진방식(cleaning method)의 개선으로 인해 해결이 가능하게 되었다. 또한 여과포에 의한 분진포집기술은 장치를 통과하는 배출기체의 속도가 다른 집진기술에 비해 느려 여과포 면적이 상대적으로 넓어져서 장치의 설치면적이 많이 소요된다는 단점이 있으나, 여과포를 원간으로 봉재하여 서로 접근시켜 많은 갯수를 다단으로 배치함과 동시에 연속탈진시스템(on-line cleaning)을 채택함으로써 장치에 소요되는 면적을 최소한으로 줄이려는 연구가 계속되고 있다. 대체적으로 여과포에 의한 분진포집기술의 산업체 적용에서 장치의 압력손실은 약 100 - 100 $mmH_2O$ 정도의 범위가 대부분이고 분진 포집효율은 거의 99.9%에서 99.99% 정도 달성이 가능하다[1,2,3].

1. 서론 : 현재의 막분리 기술로는 단 단계 분리공정(single-stage separation)으로 약 40%의 산소농축공기(oxygen-enriched air)를 얻을 수 밖에 없지만 심냉법(cryogenic techniques)보다는 에너지 소비율이 적으며, 공정이 비교적 간단하기 때문에 용도에 따라 순 산소를 꼭 필요로 하지 않는 제철소, 발전소 등의 연소분야, 호흡기 환자를 위한 의료분야, 생물공학이나 항공기 분야 등에 편리하게 이용될 수 있다. 이와 같이 용도가 다양한 산소를 분리막을 이용하여 보다 편리하고 값싸게 얻기 위해서는 산소와 질소의 막투과에 대한 새로운 지식을 얻고 막투과가 기체의 어떤 성질에 지배되고 있는가를 조사할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 고무상 고분자막(rubbery polymer membrane)에 대한 산소/질소의 수착특성과 순수한 기체의 투과율(permeation rate)을 기초로 하여 혼합기체의 투과율, 분리인자(separation factor), 막분리 공정변수에 의한 중공사 분리막에서의 기체분리특성에 대하여 연구하였다.
