A numerical analysis was carried out to estimate the effect of the gap size ratio on the performance of condensers under noncondensable gas ventilation using the porous medium approach (PMA). In the PMA, the details of the tube bundle in the condenser are considered to be those of a porous medium, and the flow resistance term is added in the momentum equation. Three-dimensional analysis of the condensation for a McAllister condenser was conducted with the PMA using Fluent and user-defined functions (UDFs). The gap size effect on the condensation was negligible under pure steam conditions. However, the gap size effect was dominant in condensation with noncondensable gas and external venting. As the gap size decreased, the condensation rate increased for noncondensable gas in an external venting system.

직접 접촉에 의한 응축 열전달은 혼합증기의 레이놀즈수, 비응축 가스(공기)의 질량비, 액막의 레이놀즈수, 그리고 액막의 과냉 정도에 따라 영향을 받게 된다. 이러한 변수들의 영향을 고찰하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 수평면으로부터 87˚ 기울어진 수직 사각 덕트에서 직접 접촉 응축 열전달 실험을 수행하였다. 위의 각 실험 변수에 따른 평균 열전달 대수의 변화를 고찰하였으며, 실험결과로부터 혼합증기 레이놀즈수, 비웅축 가스의 질량비, 액막 레이놀즈수, 그리고 제이콥수를 변수로 하여 직접 접촉 응축 열전달에 대한 평균 누셀트수에 대한 실험 상관식을 도출하였다. 혼합증기의 직접 접측 웅축 열전달에 대한 평균 열전달 계수는 비응축 가스의 질량비가 증가할수록 현저히 증가함을 보였으며, 액막의 과법 정도가 증가할수록 평균 열전달 계수는 감소하였다. 그리고 혼합증기의 레이놀즈수가 30,000 이상의 템위에서는 액막 레이놀즈수의 변화에 따라 평균 열전달 계수의 변화가 거의 없었다.

격납 용기 내에 비응축성 가스(공기)가 존재하는 경우에 증기의 응축 열전달 계수를 평가하는 방 법을 연구하였다. 유일한 대규모 격납 용기 실험인 CVTR자료를 이용하여 응축 열전달 계수를 계산하여, 현재 원자력 발전소의 냉각재 상실 사고(LOCA) 및 주 증기 배관 파열사고(MSLB)시에 격납 용기의 안전 해석에서 공식적으로 사용되고 있는 Tagami와 Uchida열전달 계수 관계식과 비교해 본 결과 좋은 일치를 보여 주었다.

The objective of this work is to investigate the effects of diminished primary coolant inventory and the presence of noncondensible gas during single- and two-phase natural circulation in a PWR loop model. The test model was composed of two loops with a U-tube heat exchanger in each loop. Through a series of tests, it has been confirmed that the two-phase natural circulation flow rates were greatly dependent on primary coolant inventory as previous investigators observed. The primary coolant inventory limit to maintain two-phase natural circulation was found to be the amount of the coolant necessary to keep the waterline of the coolant nozzle hole center in this model. The presence of noncondensible gas impede the single-phase natural circulation, but it did not affect the two-phase natural circulation significantly.

A two inverted U-tubes condenser was constructed from transparent materials to study the heat removal capability of steam generators under filmwise reflux condensation mode. Essentially, two sets of experiments were performed: (1) the first dealt with the reflux condensation length, and (2) the second dealt with the flooding points with and without the presence of a noncondensible gas in the steam flow, and the effect of the flooding time. In addition, experimental results are compared with the predictions of analytical models.

대기 중에 존재하는 입자의 생성 및 변화를 모델링 하는데 있어서 가장 중요한 요소는 응축/휘발 (condensation/evaporation)과 같은 기체/입자간의 상호 과정을 어떻게 모사 하느냐 하는 것이다. 일반적으로 지금까지의 연구는 입자와 가스상의 농도가 순간적으로 평형을 이룬다고 가정해 왔으나 실제 대기상의 입자는 비 평형(non-equilibrium)상태의 응축/휘발 과정을 따르는 것으로 알려져 왔다. (중략)

Cellulosic organic solid wastes such as bark and sawdust, and filter papers as a pure cellulose were pyrolyzed at $300^{\circ}C$ under nitrogen current and mixed current of nitrogen and air. Amounts of condensates collected in air, water, and dry ice-acetone cooling traps, noncondensable gases, and carbonized residues were surveyed. The components of volatile liquids condensed in dry ice-acetone trap were separated by means of gas chromatograph and identified by retention times and syringe reactions. Pyrolysis under nitrogen current produced 13.4∼29.6${\%}$ of tar, 0.01∼0.12${\%}$ of aqueous liquids, 0.24∼1.43${\%}$ of volatile liquids, 9.84∼42.41${\%}$ of noncondensable gases, and 44.0∼65.81${\%}$ of carbonized residues. Pyrolysis under mixed current decreased tar and condensable liquids, but increased noncondensable gases.Volatile liquids collected under nitrogen current separated into the same 19 components by Porapak Q column regardless of the materials and only difference among materials was relative amounts of components. Volatile liquids collected under mixed current separated into six components and mainly lower molecular weight compounds such as methanol and formaldehyde were produced. According to the retention times and syringe reactions, methanol, formaldehyde, acetone, acetaldehyde, acetic acid, and three other compounds presumably containing hydroxyl group in the molecular structure were identified out of 19 compounds.

This paper was studied on the corrosion behavior of STS 304 for gas boiler in the condensed water, the electrochemical polarization test of STS 304 for gas boiler in the condensed water was carried out. And the corrosion behavior of STS 304 was considered. The main results are as following: 1) As corrosion environment is acidified from neutrality, the polarization resistance of STS 304 decreases and the corrosion potential is less noble. 2) The corrosion reaction mechanism of STS 304 is cathodic control. 3) As corrosion environment is acidified, the passive potential range of STS 304 decreases. Also, the passive current density of STS 304 increases.

The condensation heat transfer coefficients of R-22 and R-410A in a small diameter tube were investigated. The main components of the refrigerant loop consist of a receiver, a variable-speed pump, a mass flowmeter, an evaporator (preheater), and a condenser (test section). The test section consists of smooth, horizontal copper tube of 3.38 mm outer diameter and 1.77 mm inner diameter. The refrigerant mass fluxes varied from 450 to $1050\;kg/(m^2s)$ and the average inlet and outlet qualities were 0.05 and 0.95. The main results were summarized as follows : the condensation heat transfer coefficient also increases with increasing mass flux and quality. The condensation heat transfer coefficient of R-410A was slightly higher than that of R-22. Most of correlations proposed in the large diameter tube showed significant deviations with experimental data except for the ranges of low quality and low mass flux.
