지하공간에서의 화재는 반밀폐 공간이라는 특수성으로 일단 화재가 발생할 경우 대구지하철화재 참사와 유사한 대형참사로 발전된 가능성은 상존한다 지금까지의 방재계획은 화재발생 가능 범위 내를 기준으로 실시되어 왔으나, 테러와 같은 비정상적 화재발생에도 대처가능한 선까지 그 범위를 넓히고 있는 세계적 추세이다. 또한, 지하철은 다른 구조물과 비교하여 화재발생시 화재진압 및 인명구조에 본질적으로 취약한 구조적 특성을 내포하고 있다.(중략)

In order to safely protect high over current flowing into the main circuit at short-circuit without any explosion or fire, the enclosed cartridge fuse with a high interrupting capacity should be applied. But this fuse is impossible to be applied to an inner electronic circuit because of a limited space problem result from the miniaturization trend of products. Therefore, it is necessary to apply a sub-miniature fuse with a relatively small size. However the semi-enclosed fuse which is more free for an influx of air than the enclosed cartridge fuse and is possible to protect fuse elements with chemical and physical combination can be adoptable. But it has a limit of implementing the characteristic of a high breaking capacity. For these reasons, the Fe-42wt％Ni fuse elements alloy and fuse-link with less space were designed to increase a breaking capacity of sub-miniature fuse and its safety for fire and explosion was confirmed in this paper.

The effects of configuration of fuel and air tubes on the flame stabilization were experimentally investigated in half-closed combustors. Flame behaviors and stabilities of methane, propane, and DME flames were compared by changing tube diameters and the locations of the fuel and air tubes. It was found that flammability limits are significantly affected by the outlet boundary condition, which disturbs compositions of burned and unburned mixtures near the flame base. And it was found that there exist critical inner tube heights, over which flame stability is determined only by the fuel flow rate. Conclusively, flame stabilization is governed by the flame propagation velocity in an ordinary mixing flow and the non-uniform mixture concentration in the combustion space which is affected by flow recirculation and the combustor configuration. The compositions of $NO_x$ and CO were compared to know basic characteristics of methane, propane, and DME flames.

최근에 각종 SOC사업이 본격화되면서 고속도로망 및 도시교통망 확충이 가속화되어 장대 터널이 급증하고 있을 뿐만 아니라 차량의 급속한 증가로 차량배기가스에 의한 터널내부 환경의 악화가 문제시되고 있다. 특히 도로터널은 반밀폐 공간으로 터널내에서의 사고는 인명피해와 막대한 재산 피해로 이어질 수 있으므로 안전운전을 위한 제반설비 및 대책이 필요하며 안전운행을 위한 가시거리 확보 및 쾌적한 환경에 대한 요구가 대두되고 있다. 따라서 터널에서 이와 같은 요구를 만족하기 위해서 기계환기설비가 투입되고 있으며 이에 대한 최적화 설계에 대한 필요성이 높아지고 있다.(중략)

현대와 같이 산업사회로 발달되기 이전의 자연생태계는 행복하였다. 청정한 태양 빛 아래 맑은 공기, 물, 흙과 나무가 어우러진 자연의 환경에서 엄연한 먹이사슬질서 속에서 살아 왔었는데, 인구증가와 산업사회로 발전하면서 대량수요가 요구되면서 그들은 점차 행복한 삶의 터전이 없어지고, 강제로 억제시킨 극도의 열악한 집단사육환경에 적응하면서 살아갈 수밖에 없게 되면서 먹이사슬에서 부작용과 역기능이 발생되기 시작하였다. 집단사육장환경을 획기적으로 개선해야 된다. 태양빛이 완전 차단되고 밀폐된 공간에서 집단사육시키고 있는 닭, 오리, 돼지가 정상적으로 생장할 수 있도록 적어도 자연환경에 가까운 밝고 청정한 환경으로 개선시켜야 된다. 사육동물들이 정상적으로 생장할 수 있도록 자연환경과 버금가는 생태환경으로 개선시켜 주어야만 오리들이 건강하게 성장하고 면역력이 증강되어 조류인플루엔자와 같이 원인불명의 질병에 감염되지 않을 것이다. 현실적으로 모든 실내 생태계의 성장을 활성화시키면서 면역력을 증강시킬 수 있는 생명에너지 빛(Bioenergetic Rays)을 방사하는 차세대 조명기술로 집단사육장의 실내를 획기적으로 밝게 하고, 실내의 탁한 공기가 신선한 외부공기로 충분히 순환이 될 수 있도록 반 밀폐구조로 개조해야 한다. 그리고 한 마리 당 활동공간을 넓혀 주어야 한다.

인구의 도시집중화에 따른 교통문제와 생활공간의 확보문제가 서울시가 가지고 있는 여러 가지 문제들 중의 하나이다. 이중 교통문제의 해결을 위해 서울시가 추진하고 있는 정책중 지하철 건설은 밀집화된 시의 공간활용 측면에 있어서 필연적이라고 할 수 있다. 서울시 지하철은 1974년 제 1호선 개통이래 1999년 7월에 제 8호선이 완전 개통됨으로서 40% 이상의 높은 수송 분담율을 기록하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 양적인 증가에 반해 공간적인 밀폐성으로 인한 대기, 소음, 진동 등의 환경 위해성이 논란의 대상이 되고 있다. (중략)

급속한 도시화와 인구 고밀도화에 따라 수반되는 교통문제와 생활공간의 확보는 대부분의 대도시가 직면한 사회적 문제이다. 특히 교통문제 해결을 위해 서울시가 추진하고 있는 지하철 건설은 밀집화 된 도시의 공간활용 측면에 있어서 필연적이라고 할 수 있다. 서울시 지하철은 40% 이상의 높은 수송 분담율을 기록하고 있다. 그러나 양적인 증가에 반해, 공간적인 밀폐성 증가로 인한 대기질, 소음·진동 환경 의한 시민들의 건강 위해성 악화가 논란의 대상이 되고 있다. (중략)

This study was aimed to investigate spatial and vertical characteristics of greenhouse environments according to the location of the environmental sensors, and to investigate the correlations between temperature, light intensity, and carbon dioxide (CO₂) concentration according to the type of greenhouse. Temperature, relative humidity (RH), CO₂, and light sensors were installed in the four-different vertical positions of the whole canopy as well as ground and roof space at the five spatial locations of the Venlo greenhouse. Also, correlations between temperature, light intensity, and CO₂ concentration in Venlo and semi-closed greenhouses were analyzed using the Curve Expert Professional program. The deviations among the spatial locations were larger in the CO₂ concentration than other environmental factors in the Venlo greenhouse. The average CO₂ concentration ranged from 465 to 761 µmol·mol^-1 with the highest value (646 µmol·mol^-1) at the Middle End (4ME) close to the main pipe (50Ø) of the liquefied CO₂ gas supply and lowest (436 µmol·mol^-1) at the Left Middle (5LM). The deviation among the vertical positions was greater in temperature and relative humidity than other environments. The time zone with the largest deviation in average temperature was 2 p.m. with the highest temperature (26.51℃) at the Upper Air (UA) and the lowest temperature (25.62℃) at the Lower Canopy (LC). The time zone with the largest deviation in average RH was 1 p.m. with the highest RH (76.90%) at the LC and the lowest RH (71.74%) at the UA. The highest average CO₂ concentration at each hour was Roof Air (RF) and Ground (GD). The coefficient of correlations between temperature, light intensity, and CO₂ concentration were 0.07 for semi-closed greenhouse and 0.66 for Venlo greenhouse. All the results indicate that while the CO₂ concentration in the greenhouse needs to be analyzed in the spatial locations, temperature and humidity needs to be analyzed in the vertical positions of canopy. The target CO₂ fertilization concentration for the semi-closed greenhouse with low ventilation rate should be different from that of general greenhouses.

Domestic eco-friendly vehicles currently account for 5.8% of the total registered vehicles in Korea. Hydrogen vehicles, one of the representative eco-friendly vehicles, have grown rapidly as they have been expanded to the market based on the government's policy to boost the hydrogen industry. Therefore, it is time to expand the safety review of hydrogen vehicles in various directions according to the increase in supply. In this study, the effect of internal heat damage was analyzed when a jet flame was generated by a hydrogen car in a road tunnel. It was simulated using Fluent, and the amount of jet flame injection was selected in consideration of the hydrogen tank capacity of commercial hydrogen vehicles for road tunnels. In addition, the study was conducted with the direction of the jet flame and the nozzle distance from the tunnel wall as variables. From the results, when the jet flame erupted in the road tunnel, high radiant heat emission of more than 20 kW/m² was generated in most areas within ±5 m in the longitudinal direction based on the vehicle (spray nozzle) and 5 to 7 m in the lateral direction based on the adjacent tunnel wall.

The Froude scaling between the prototype and the model was tried to estimate the necessary ventilation rate for non-isothermal concentrated fume from the semi-closed inner space. Based on the non-dimensional similitude equations derived from the Zukoski plume rise analysis, the scaling experiments were done to verify the relationship of the non-dimensional energy release rate and the non-dimensional mass flow rate by using two different scaled volume models, model A ($1\;m{\times}1\;m{\times}1\;m$) and model B ($0.5\;m{\times}0.5\;m{\times}0.5\;m$). The experimental results showed that the theoretical similitude between the models is acceptable for the prediction of ventilation rate of the concentrated fume. The maximum energy release rate used for the experiments was $20\;kW/m^3$. In the experimental range, the similitude between the energy release rate and the ventilation mass flow rate was well defined and the necessary ventilation rates were 20-30% higher than the stoichiometric ventilation mass flow rate. Based on results of current study, the design of the local air ventilation system can be improved by correcting the effects of buoyancy and diffusion of the non-isothermal concentrated fume.
