TVC is a kind of ejector which entrains low pressure working fluid by using the high pressure working fluid. While most papers relating with ejectors treat the working fluid as an ideal gas for convenience, the fluid doesn't behave as the ideal gas when phase change occurs. In this study, numerical analysis is conducted by applying Redlich-Kwong equation of state instead of ideal gas equation of state. Two turbulent models are compared for the better prediction and SST k-${\omega}$ model is preferred rather than realizable k-${\epsilon}$ model by comparison. Energy loss at the diffuser inlet and throat using the real gas equation of state is relatively greater than that using ideal gas law. For the real gas case, pressure increase due to shock train at the diffuser outlet is relatively smaller than the ideal gas case, but both cases have the same pressure increase due to a pseudo shock.

The experimental study with the prototype provides more acceptable data than the others. But there are so many limited conditions to perform the experimental study with the prototype. So the theoretical similitude with the scaled model and the numerical study with the CFD method have been chosen alternatively to analysis the fume movement. In this study, the ventilation was estimated from the results of the numerical study based on the experimental results as the boundary conditions. The grid A and B were same size and shape with the models which was used in the experimental study and consisted with 163,839, 122,965 cells respectively. The height of the fume layer was estimated form the mole fraction of fume components and the ventilation was determined by the velocity and temperature of the fume. The results of this study showed that the fume movements estimated from the numerical study are enough to apply to the prototype if there are proper heat loss correction factors. The numerical study is easier to change study conditions and faster to get results from the study than the experimental study. So if we find some proper heat loss correction factors, it's possible to execute the various and advanced study with the numerical study.

Numerical modules based on a conventional thermo-hydrological numerical model, TOUGH2, are developed to provide a numerical modeling technique for a standing column well (SCW). Cooling and heating operations for two different types of SCW are then simulated using these modules. Modeling showed these operations to be significantly influenced by heat exchange and fluid mixing between the SCW and the adjacent geologic formation and groundwater. The results also reveal that heat exchange between the oppositely flowing outflow and inflow in the PVC or PE pipe and the SCW borehole is an important factor. Overall, the numerical modeling technique developed here can reasonably simulate fluid flow and heat transport phenomena in the complex internal structures of a SCW. The proposed technique can be used practically for the quantitative analysis of heat exchange in a SCW at the design, construction, and operation stages.

The backlayer phenomena of smoke in the road tunnel is evaluated through numerical experiments. A commercial code, PHOENICS is used to simulate smoke flow in the road tunnel. The independent and dependent variables are ventilation air velocity and the length of backlayer of smoke respectively. Hybrid scheme and $textsc{k}-\varepsilon$ turbulence model is adopted in the simulation process and mass residual is used as a convergence criterion. The experimental results say that the length of backlayer is reduced linearly with the increase of ventilating air velocity and that there is a critical air velocity which prevents from the onset of backlayering phenomena. One finds that there is a fresh air region near the bottom of tunnel which could make the passenger escape from the region polluted by smoke. These phenomena come from the severe vertical stratification of the smoke air mixture in the tunnel.

정확한 태풍진로 예측은 동아시아 최대의 자연재해인 태풍의 피해를 최소화하는데 필수적이다. 기상역학에 기초를 둔 수치모델과 회귀분석등의 통계적 접근법이 사용되어왔다. 본 논문에서는 비선형 신경망모델인 다층퍼셉트론을 제안한다. 즉, 태풍진로예측을 이동경로, 속도, 기압 등의 변수로 이루어진 시계열의 예측으로 본다. 1945년부터 1989년까지 한반도에 접근한 태풍 데이터를 이용하여 제안된 신경망을 학습한 후, 94, 95년도에 접근한 태풍의 진로를 예측하였다. 신경망의 예측성능은 수치모델의 성능보다 조금 우수하거나 비슷하였다. 신경망의 성능은 충분히 더 향상될 수 있는 여지가 있다. 또한, 고가의 슈퍼컴퓨터로 여러 시간 계산을 해야하는 수치모델에 비하여 PC상에서 수초만에 계산을 할 수 있는 신경망 모델은 비용 면에서도 장점이 있다.

호소내의 흐름은 중력의 영향을 받는 하천의 흐름과는 달리 열수지에 의한 밀도류 및 바람 등에 영향을 크게 받아 특유의 유동특성을 나타낸다. 본 연구에서는 EFDC(Environmental fluid Dynamics Code, 미국 버지니아 해양연구소 개발) 모델을 이용하여 호소 내 수치모의를 실시하였다. 복잡한 지형을 형성하고 있는 호수 내의 유동특성의 정밀도를 향상시키기 위해서는, 흐름특성을 고려한 grid작성이 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 1:3000, 1:5000 축척의 수치지도를 이용하여 장흥호의 하상단면 값을 추정하였으며, GIS를 이용하여 (${\Delta}x$, ${\Delta}y$)=100m로 DEM을 생성하였다. 그리고 구성된 DEM값을 이용하여 정밀도가 높은 최종 Cartesian grid(active cell=706)를 구축하였다. EFDC를 이용한 장흥호의 수치모의 결과 호수내의 흐름은 수면을 통한 열 교환에 의한 수온 밀도류를 형성하고 있으며, 수온성층의 형성과 파괴가 호수 흐름을 형성하는 큰 인자로 작용한다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고, 호에 유입되는 하천부분에서는 유입되는 수온에 따라 흐름특성이 변하며, 유입수온에 따라 호수 내 관입위치가 변하여 표면흐름, 내부흐름, 저부흐름 등의 흐름특성을 보인다 이상과 같이, 호수내의 흐름특성을 열수지, 외력에 의해서 크게 변동하며 해석대상역의 지역특성을 반영한 수리현상의 정확한 재현 없이는, 이 유동해석결과를 입력치로 하는 수질모델링 결과는 신뢰도에 심각한 문제를 발생시킨다고 할 수 있다.

An effect of coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical and chemical (THMC) behavior is an essential part of the performance and safety assessment of geological disposal systems for high-level radioactive waste and spent nuclear fuel. Furthermore, numerical models and modeling techniques are necessary to analyze and predict the coupled THMC behavior in the disposal systems. However, phenomena associated with the coupled THMC behavior are nonlinear, and the constitutive relationships between them are not well known. Therefore, it is challenging to develop numerical models and modeling techniques to analyze and predict the coupled THMC behavior in the geological disposal systems. It is also difficult to verify and validate the development of the models and techniques because it requires expensive laboratory tests and in-situ experiments that need to be performed for a long time. DECOVALEX was initiated in 1992 to efficiently develop numerical models and modeling techniques and validate the developed models and techniques against the lab and in-situ experiments. In Korea, Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute has participated in DECOVALEX-2011, DECOVALEX-2015, and DECOVALEX-2019 since 2008. In this study, all tasks in the three DECOVALEX projects were introduced to the researcher in the field of rock mechanics and geotechnical engineering in Korea.

Numerical simulations of CIEMAT column test in Spain are performed to investigate the coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) behavior of MX80 bentonite pellets using TOUGH2-FLAC3D. The heater power and injection pressure of water in the numerical simulations are identical to those in the laboratory test. To investigate the applicability of the thermo-hydraulic (TH) model used in TOUGH2 code to prediction of the coupled TH behavior, the simulation results are compared with the observations of temperature and relative humidity with time. The tendencies of the coupled behavior observed in the test are well represented by the numerical models and the simulator in terms of temperature and relative humidity evolutions. Moreover, the performance of the models for the reproduction and prediction of the coupled TH behavior is globally satisfactory compared with the observations. However, the calculated stress change is relatively small and slow due to the limitations of the simple elastic and swelling pressure model used in numerical simulations. It seems that the two models are insufficient to realistically reproduce the complex coupled THM behavior in the bentonite pellets.

Numerical simulations were carried out to analyze thermo-fluid dynamic and missile-motion performance by using two-phase flow model and dynamic grid system. To analyze the interaction among the hot gas, coolant, and mixture flow, Realizable $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence and VOF(Volume Of Fluid) model were chosen and a parametric study was performed with the change of coolant flow rate. As a result of the analysis, pressure of the canister showed a large difference depending on the presence or absence of the coolant, and also showed a dependancy on the amount of coolant. Velocity and acceleration were dependent on the canister pressure.
