계단식 Gabion 낙차공은 다공체 구조물로서 시공하기 쉽고 안정적이며, 하천유수에 대하여 저항성이 있어 하천구조물로서 널리 자주 사용되고 있다. Gabion은 다공체로서 유수력을 쉽게 흡수함으로써 감세지 계단표면의 위치에너지를 소산시키는데 매우 효과적이다. Stephenson은 1/10 축적을 가진(투수성이 있고 하천낙차공에만 적용되는 투수성 상류면을 가진 높이 4m까지의) 계단식 Gabion을 월류 실험한 바가 있으며, 그 연구결과가 실무에서 인용되고 있다. 그러나 본 연구에서는 급변류의 에너지 소산효과를 조사하기 위하여 중력이 다른 힘들보다 지배적이므로 Froude 상사법칙을 이용하고 1/1, 1/2, 1/3 경사를 가진 계단을 적용하였다. 실험에서는 경사를 가진 높이 4m 계단식 위어와 게비온 감세지 실험, 계단모형실험(보통구조, 층상구조, 끝단이 올라간 구조, 턱을 가진 구조), 격리수맥흐름, 부분수맥흐름으로 제안하여 경사에 따른 급변류의 에너지 소산효과에 대한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

해상에는 막대한 파력 부존량이 존재함에도 불구하고 파력발전은 다른 신재생 에너지 발전에 비하여 효율이 낮고 발전단가가 높아 경제성이 떨어진다. 그러므로 파력발전시스템을 상용화하기 위해서는 파력발전 효율을 증대시키기 위한 연구가 반드시 필요하다. 본 논문에서 제시하는 파력발전시스템은 기존의 파력발전기로는 발전할 수 없었던 작은 파도로도 발전 가능하도록 설계되어 높은 효율의 발전을 기대할 수 있다. 본 실험을 통하여 미세한 파도에서도 충분한 발전을 할 수 있는 시스템인지 여부를 판단하고 나아가서 상사법칙을 이용하여 본 모델 보다 5배 크기로 추정하였을 때 여기서 제시하는 파력발전시스템이 실제 해상에서 상용화 가능성이 있는지를 알아보고자 한다. 본 실험은 2차원 조파수조에서 수행 되었으며 발전시스템의 출력 값은 토크센서와 RPM 측정기를 사용하여 도출하였다.

This paper adresses the shaking table tests with 1/100 scaled model followed similitude law for OOdam main designing section to understand nonlinear behavior characteristics of concrete dam body by ground motion. As earthquake wave, Hachinohe and El Centre waves were used and acceleration and displacements are measured to analyze behaviors of dam body. For maximum ground acceleration range $(0.3\~0.9 g)$, the results showed linear behavior regardless of maximum 9round acceleration and secured safety of structure. To analyze the behavior of dam after tension cracking, 3 cm-notch was placed at the critical section of over-flowing section. As results of applying Hachinohe wave(0.8 g), Even though tension cracks were formed at over-flowing section by Hachinohe wave(0.8 g), it showed that the dam is stable for supporting upper stream Part of water tank of dam.

Waterhammer and slamming phenomena can occur when power is cut off due to reversal flow in pipeline and sudden close of check valve. Therefore analysis of reversal flow time, which means the time of reversal flow in pipeline due to pumping station blackout, is needed to protect facilities from waterhammer economically and efficiently. However systematic study on reversal flow time has not been done yet. So theory of reversal flow time analysis is proposed and verified with experiment using several parameters like pump specific speed, motor pole number, and characteristic curve of pipeline in this study.

The turbulent flow characteristics of impinging jet have been investigated by the hot wire anemometry with a movable impinging wall. Turbulences were generated by the meshed jet as well as the typical round jet and their characteristics were compared, of mean velocity profiles, turbulent intensities. Reynolds stresses, similarities and their centerline flow behaviors. The meshed jet tends to make shear layer wider than the normal one in the initial region and the velocity profiles of the normal jet is rather contractive being compared with those of the meshed one near the wall. The effect of meshed exit appears only within 4D at the begining of jets and the cascading process of the meshed one marches more rapidly than that of the normal jet. The wall effects appear in the downstream of about 0.85 H to the impinging wall for every case of wall positions in both nozzles.

The initial flow characteristics of the turbulent circular jet discharging into the sudden expansion pipes have been investigated by the hot wire anemometry. Evolutions of similarity, centerline behavior, jet boundary and typical turbulent quantities were looked into for the expansion ratios. The results show that the spreading rates of discharging jet seem not to be dependent of the expansion ratio and that the velocity profiles in the radial directions exhibit the similarity in the regions, 2-5d, 2-6d and 3-8d for the corresponding expansion rations of 2, 3 and 5, respectively. With the increase of expansion ratio the centerline velocity decays rather slowly. The anisotropic behaviors of the discharging jets into the sudden expansion pipe look stronger than those of the free jet.

This paper is results of experimental research on the effect of application of similarity related to permeability of soil on the consolidation behavior as centrifuge modeling of consolidation is performed with the centrifuge model facility. In this research, the permeability of soil was controlled by changing the viscosity of porewater as the mixed water with glycerin was used during the centrifuge model experiments. The effect of drainage path on consolidation was investigated by installing the vertical drains. A serise of centrifuge model tests with conditions of single vertical and radial horizontal drainage were carried out. Kaolinite and Jumunjin standard sand were used as soft clay and surcharges respectively during tests. For testing condition of single vertical drainage considering similarity of permeability, it was found that consolidation with mixed porewater with glycerin was delayed in comparisons sons with test results with water only. For conditions of horizontal drainage with vertical drains, a low permeability by changing the viscosity of pore water resulted in delayed degree of consolidation at an initial stage of consolidation. But, it predicted not much differences in settlement as long as the consolidation time was sufficiently long enough to finish consolidation. Consequently, it was found that similarity in permeability should be considered to be critical for the case of centrifuge model experiments related to consolidation with long drainage path.

The present study describes the cooling performance of two kinds of water mist systems used in fire extinguishment. The cooling is necessary for the prevention of an auto re-ignition of the power transformer. A heat source for such the re-ignition is the accumulated thermal energy in the dielectric oil from the transformer core. Because of the weight of the real core, reduced-scale experiments are carried out. A similarity analysis Is also performed to determine the discharge time of the water mist systems from the experimental results. The discharge time to prevent the re-ignition in the real-scale transformer is estimated about 12 hour from the similarity analysis of the reduced-scale experiments.

In this Research, in order to improve problems of not enough technical validation and structural and hydraulic stability evaluation when nature-friendly revetment block is applied to field, hydraulic stability evaluation according to hydraulic behavior change of porosity soil block for vegetation reinforcement that secures ecological function was reviewed. By selecting object section, numerical analysis and hydraulic model experiments were performed; for numerical analysis, by using 1-dimensional numerical analysis model HEC-RAS and 2-dimensional numerical analysis RMA-2, one-dimensional(1D) and two-dimensional(2D) numerical analysis were performed; by applying Froude's similarity law, reduced-scale hydraulic model experiments according to vegetation existence were performed. In hydraulic model experiment, for validity of experiment result, the result of velocity and tractive force of reduced-scale hydraulic model experiments was converted to prototype so that it can be compared and reviewed under the same condition of one-dimensional(1D) and two-dimensional(2D) numerical analysis result; as a result, it was confirmed that comparatively united result appeared, and by comparing prototype-converted tractive force result with revetment's allowable tractive force coming from an existing research, block's hydraulic stability was suggested.

An aerodynamic rig test of a radial turbine for an auxiliary power unit (APU) was performed at a high-temperature turbine test facility at the Korea Aerospace Research Institute. The pressure ratio, Mach number, and flow coefficient in the rig test are the same as those under normal engine operation conditions. The design pressure ratio is 3.096, design test speed is 34909 rpm, and turbine inlet temperature is $160^{\circ}C$. The turbine has airfoil-type nozzles, and the diameter of the turbine wheel is 175.74 mm. The turbine map is experimentally measured, and the detailed flow at the turbine inlet is measured. The pressure distribution in the nozzle at both the hub and the shroud sides and the pressure distribution along the shroud casing of the turbine wheel were measured, and this confirmed that the expansion process in the turbine wheel is acceptable.
