수중방전은 다양한 라디칼을 직접 물 속에서 발생시키기 때문에 수처리 공정에 다양한 응용이 가능하다. 특히, 최근에 선박평형수 등의 살균이 국제적인 이슈가 되고 있고, 2017년까지는 모든 선박에 살균을 위한 수처리 설비가 의무화된다. 본 연구에서는 염분이 있는 수체에서의 방전공정을 연구하고 이를 수처리공정에 적용할 수 있는 방법에 대해 연구하였다. 해수의 경우 전도도가 53mS로 자유로운 전하의 이동이 가능하기 때문에 일반적인 민물방전의 전원과 전극 등으로는 방전을 할 수 없다. 이에 세라믹과 금속의 이중구조로 되어 있는 모세관전극을 개발하여 전도성이 있는 수체에서의 방전을 이루었다. 전원장치로는 60 Hz, 380 V를 1차측에 인가하여 2차측에서 약 3 kV, 10 kW의 파워가 발생하는 12위상차 교류전원장치를 개발하여 사용하였다. 모세관 내부에 전압이 인가되면 전류가 발생하여 joule heating에 의하여 모세관 내부에 기포가 형성된다. 이 때, 전류의 단락이 이루어지면서 고전압쪽에 전하가 축적되며 기포내부의 E-field가 상승한다. 이후 기포 내에서 방전이 개시되며 각종 라디칼을 생성한다. 방전에 의해 생성되는 산화제로는 오존, OH라디칼, 과산화수소 등이 있으며, 해수에서는 Cl-의 결합에 의하여 Cl2 가스가 발생한다. 약 30,000 J/L의 체적에너지에 대하여 생성되는 총염소의 농도는 2.5 mg/L이다. 수중방전의 적용대상으로 선박평형수, 멤브레인과의 결합, 용존기포부상법을 선정하여 적용가능성을 연구하였다. 먼저 선박평형수 살균처리를 위해 해수의 처리유량을 20 lpm으로 유지하고 대장균, 바실러스, 조류(테트라셀미스) 등을 투입하여 전극 12개가 삽입된 12위상차 플라즈마 반응기를 통과시켰더니, 약 30,000 J/L의 체적에너지에 대하여 1일 후의 살균력이 각각 99.99, 99.99, 99.9%의 살균력을 나타내었다. 이는 국제해사기구에서 권장하는 살균수준인 99.9%를 초과하는 수치이다. 플라즈마를 이용한 해수살균공정의 안정적 운전을 위해 후단에 UF멤브레인을 추가하여 잔류생존 미생물을 제거할 수 있다. 이를 위해 플라즈마가 후단의 멤브레인 운전에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 카올린과 탄산칼슘을 오염원으로 각각 투입하여 멤브레인으로 처리를 하였을 때, 방전 직후 멤브레인에 걸리는 막간압력차가 약 30% 감소하였는데, 이는 막에 형성된 파울링이 방전에 의해 제거된 것으로 평가할 수 있다. 수중방전은 다양한 산화제를 생성함과 동시에 미세기포를 발생시키는데 이는 수중유기물의 부상분리에 적용될 수 있다. 방전모세관전극의 내부직경을 1 mm로 유지하고, 60 Hz, 교류전원으로 방전한 결과 평균입경 44 um의 기포를 발생시켰고, 이는 일반적으로 용존공기부상법에 사용되는 기포의 크기와 일치한다.

The rock excavation work on the sea is planned as underwater process if the elevation of the rock is lower than the M.S.L.(Mean Sea Level). However, in case of West and South sea which are largely different between the rise and fall of the tide, the earth work can be performed on the ground while the work surface is exposed above the sea according to the tide cycle. Thus, it may a good substitute to make up for shortcomings of underwater construction works such as safety problems of workers, loss of efficiency and increasement of construction costs. But the difference between the height of the rock excavation surface and the water surface changed by the tide makes the exposure time of work surface, that is the possible working hours be changed. Also, it may cause the changes of construction cost. Thus, this study analyzes the economical efficiency of the construction method using the difference between the rise and fall of the tide in comparison with the construction method which is performed under the sea, and it also suggests the way to analyze the economical working hours by estimating the possible working hours on the ground. We also try to find out the application possibility of the way like the rock excavation work on the sea using the difference between rise and fall of the tide.

In this paper, we proposed receiver structure based on an iterative turbo equalization to cope with phase difference between two sensors in MIMO underwater communication channel. In a space-time coded system, it is often assumed that there are no phase errors among the multiple transmitter and receiver chains. In this paper, we have studied the effect of the phase errors between different transmit sensors and different propagation paths in the environment of MIMO underwater communication system, and have shown through BER performance by computer simulations that the bit-error-rate performance can be severely degraded. A decision-directed estimation and compensation algorithm has been proposed to minimize their effects on the system performance. In this paper, we investigate the phase differences and their effects on multiple-input and multiple-output systems, and propose a compensation algorithm for underwater channel model to minimize their effects.

This study compared and analyzed the change of air consumption according to water depth with human characteristics and theoretical values. The experimental results are as follows. First, subjects A and B showed similar rise rates depending on the water depth. Second, subject C had a significantly higher rate of increase in air consumption at 25m underwater because the body responded sensitively to deep water pressure, which increased air consumption because breathing was faster than other participants. Third, the subjects D and E showed significantly lower overall air consumption. D and E were 37 and 35 years of age, respectively, the youngest, strongest and most experienced in deep sea diving at the time of military service. Fourth, the average air consumption per minute of the test subjects increased from 5m in water to 1.45 times, 10m in water to 1.85 times, and 20m in water to 2.8 times. This seems to be a result of different experiences, physical fitness, the degree of adaptation of the body to underwater, and different breathing techniques. Lastly, the difference between the experimental average value and the theoretical value appears to be the result of using more or less air than the theoretical value depending on the experiences and physical strength of each of the 5 rescuers, the degree of adaptation of the body underwater, and the method of underwater breathing.

Nonlinear flow characteristics of a hydrofoil running under the free surface are investigated based on potential flow theory using singularity distribution techniques. Following Hess & Smith's method[12], sources and vortices are distributed on the surface of the foil and Rankine sources are distributed at a distance above the undisturbed free surface to solve the nonlinear free surface waves(so called Raised Panel Method). Using the linearized Neumann-Kelvin solution, the conversed solutions which rigidly satisfy the nonlinear free surface condition is obtained through an iterative technique. It is validated that the nonlinear solutions are compared with Duncan's experimental results(NACA 0012, $\alpha=5^{\circ}$), showing good correlations with each other. At a very shallow submergence and a very high speed the converged solutions are obtained. As the speed increases higher, it is shown that the difference between the nonlinear and linear solutions are trivial. Finally, the effects of the camber and thickness on the nonlinear flow characteristics of the foil are investigated.

The underwater channel is known to offer poor communications channel. The channel medium is highly absorptive and the transmission bandwidth is limited. In addition, the channel is highly frequency selective; the degree of selectiveness depends on a detailed geometry of the channel. Furthermore, the response changes over time as the channel conditions affecting the response such as water temperature, sea surface wind and salinity are time-varying. The transceiver design to deal with the frequency and time selective channel, therefore, becomes very challenging. It has been known that deep fading at certain specific sub-carriers are detrimental to OFDM systems. To mitigate this negative effect, the proposed coded OFDM system employs an LDPC code based modulation. In this paper, we aim 1) to provide a detailed underwater channel model; 2) to design a robust LDPC coded OFDM system; 3) to test the proposed system under a variety of channel conditions enabled by the channel model.

An active synthetic aperture sonar mounted on small UUV is generated various trajectory disturbances in the traveling path by the influence of external underwater environments. That is the phase mismatch occurs in the synthetic aperture processing of the signals reflected from seabed objects and fetches the detection performance decreases. In this paper, we compensated deteriorated images by the active SAS autofocus processing using DPC and analyzed the effects of detection performance when the periodic trajectory disturbances occur in the side direction at a constant velocity and straight movement of UUV. Through simulations, the deteriorated images according to the periodic disturbance magnitudes and period variations in the platform were compensated using difference phases processing of the overlapping displaced phase centers on the adjacent transmitted ping signals, and we conformed the improved performance characteristics of azimuth resolution and detection images at 3dB reference point.
