이 글에서는 고충아파트에서 층간 열공급의 불균일성이 발생하는 원인을 설명하였고 이 불균일 성을 해소시키는 새로운 열공급 설비 기술을 설명하였으며 그 내용들에 대한 결론은 다음과 같다. (1) 온수 난방 고층아파트의 층간 열공급의 불균일성은 온수공급관과 회수관의 정수압력의 차 이에 의한 유동저항에 의해서 발생한다. (2) 다구역배관망 시스템은 온수공급관과 회수관의 정수압력의 차이에 의해 발생하는 열공급 불균일성의 해소에 거의 기여하지 못한다. (3) 연속난방방식에서 서모스타트의 설치는 각세대의 열공급을 균일하게 할 수 있고 에너지 절 약면에서 가장 유리한 방식이나 고장의 위험성이 가장 크며, 운전의 미숙에 의한 열공급 제어의 불균일성을 초래하기 쉬우며 외기온도가 매우 낮으면 층간 열공급제어가 되지 않을 수 있어서 자동유량조절밸브를 병용하거나 온수공급압력을 충분히 크게 할 필요가 있다. (4) 자동유량조절밸브에 부착하면 단구역 배관망 시스템에서도 층간의 유량공급의 불균일성을 없앨 수 있으나 순환 펌프유량이 부족하면 밸브의 자동유량조절 기능이 상실된다. (5) 수동유량조절밸브는 TAB에 의해서 충간의 유량을 균일하게 조절할 수 있으나 펌프 성능변화 관부식 등이 발생하면 TAB를 다시 할 필요가 발생할 수 있다. 그러나 밸브의 고장이 적고 유 동저항을 적게 발생시키며 한 개의 밸브로 조절할 수 있는 유량의 범위가 큰 점에서는 가장 유 리하다.

A corrugated pipe is widely used in firefighting equipment and sprinkler pipes because of its elasticity, which is less damaged by deformation and convenient facilities. However, the corrugated shape of the wall results in complex internal turbulent flow, and it is difficult to predict the pressure drop, which is an important design factor for pipe flow. The pressure drop in the corrugated tube is a function of the shape factors of the pipe wall, such as groove height, length, and pitch. Existing studies have only shown a study of pressure drop due to length changes in the case of D-shaped tubes with less than 5 pitch (P) and height (K) of the rectangular grooves in the tube. In this work, we conduct a numerical study of pressure drop for P/Ks with length and height changes of 2.8, 3.5 and 4.67 with Re Numbers of 55,000, 70,000 and 85,000. The pressure drop in the corrugated tube was interpreted to decrease with smaller P/K. We show that the pressure drop is affected by the change in the groove aspect ratio, and the increase in the height of the groove increases the recirculation area, and the larger the Reynolds number, the greater the pressure drop.

Both structural analysis and hydraulic test have been conducted to confirm the burst characteristics of filament wound solid motor case. Failure criteria have been defined with bursting above 150% of MEOP and failure in the cylinder. The results of analysis showed that filament fiber in the cylinder should be broken at about 2088psig. From a hydraulic test the same failure mode and the level of 2200psig of burst pressure have been proved. With these results, it is verified that a filament wound case meets burst requirements.

The Process of Pressurized water diffusion is mixing process by pressurized water injection with coagulate and chlorine water in the water treatment system. The objectives of this research were to evaluate the mixing length and diameter of diffusion plate and distance from injection pipe for complete mixing by using computational fluid dynamics. From the results of CFD simulation, when diameter of injection pipe is 50 mm, 100 mm and injection pressure is $5kg/cm^2$ and the diameter of inlet pipe is 2,200 mm, the complete mixing length is 4D (D: Length as diameter of inlet pipe). When diameter of injection pipe is 50 mm, the diameter of the diffusion plate in o.1D and distance from injection pipe is 0.2D, the complete mixing length is 3D that is the most short mixing length. But when diameter of injection pipe is 100 mm and mutually related the diameter, distance of diffusion plate, the complete mixing length is 4D over. Therefore, as the diameter of inlet pipe is 2,200 mm, the injection pipe 50 mm is more efficient than 100 mm.

Based on a surface design with rectangular cavities and channels, we investigated the effects of gravity and capillary pressure on pool-boiling Critical Heat Flux (CHF). The microcavity structures could prevent liquid flow by the capillary pressure effect. In addition, the microchannel structures contributed to induce one-dimensional liquid flow on the boiling surface. The relationship between the CHF and capillary flow was clearly established. The driving potentials for the liquid supply into a boiling surface can be generated by the gravitational head and capillary pressure. Through an analysis of pool boiling and visualization data, we reveal that the liquid supplement to maintain the nucleate boiling condition on a boiling surface is closely related to the gravitational pressure head and capillary pressure effect.

We carried out performance analysis of Sodium-Water Reaction Pressure Relief System of Prototype Generation-IV Sodium-Cooled Fast Reactor. We analyzed transient-dynamic behavior of fluids inside the steam generator to vent into a sodium dump tank or a water dump tank when tubes in the steam generator were broken to cause a large-water-leak accident. Accordingly, we preliminarily evaluated design requirements of our system. Our results showed that sodium in the shell side of the steam generator and in Intermediate Heat Transport System was completely vented within 50 s and feed water in the tube side of the steam generator was completely vented within 2.5 s. It was analyzed that pressure of the tube side of the steam generator was higher than pressure of the shell side of the steam generator, which showed that sodium in the shell side did not flow into the tube side. Our results are expected to be used as basis information to performance analysis of Sodium-Water Reaction Pressure Relief System of Prototype Generation-IV Sodium-Cooled Fast Reactor.

A pressurized heavy water reactor (PHWR) designed to refuel in service produces the energy required by nuclear fission. The fuel channel consists of components such as a pressure tube which directly contacts the fuel and is a passage for the reactor coolant, a calandria tube which contacts the moderator and is rolled joint with calandria, and a spacer which is not to contact the pressure tube and a calandria tube. As the fuel channel is one of the most important equipments, it requires accurate and periodic inspections to assess the integrity of a reactor in accordance with CSA N285.4. A fuel channel inspection system is developed to inspect fuel channels during in-service inspection in Wolsong unit. In this paper, the results and considerations of a field test are presented in order to show the effectiveness of the developed fuel channel inspection system.

Low-frequency pressure fluctuations in an external-loop airlift reactor were investigated. Low-frequency pressure fluctuations could be measured by shooting videos about liquid levels in the four piezometric tubes which were installed at the lower and upper parts of the riser and downcomer using a cellular phone. The periodic characteristics of pressure fluctuations were proved by the calculation of their auto-correlation function and cross-correlation function. Even if the riser superficial gas velocity was constant, the riser and downcomer gas holdups as well as wall pressures were periodically changed due to the inertia of circulating liquid. In general, the intensity of pressure fluctuations increased with an increase in the gas velocity. When the unaerated liquid height was 0.04 m, the maximum period of pressure fluctuations was found at the specific gas velocity (0.14 ms^-1). It was because the maximum inertia of circulating liquid resulted from a reduction in the increasing rate of the liquid circulation velocity and a decrease in the volume of the effectively circulating liquid with an increase in the gas velocity.
