In the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, drones have become a flexible device that can be integrated with new technologies. The drones were originally developed as military unmanned aircraft and are now being used in various fields. In the environment and weather observation area, the atmospheric boundary layer is near the surface where the atmosphere is the most active in the meteorological phenomenon and has a close influence on human activities. In order to carry out the study of these atmospheric boundary layers, it is necessary to observe precisely the lower atmosphere and secure the observation technology. The drones in the meteorological field can be used for meteorological observations at a relatively low maintenance cost compared to existing equipment. When used in conjunction with various sensors, the drones can be widely used in atmospheric boundary layer and local meteorological studies. In this study, the possibility of meteorological observations using drones was confirmed by conducting vertical meteorological (temperature and humidity) observation experiments equipped with a combined meteorological sensor and a radio sonde on drones owned by NIMS.

The failure phenomenon of overlaid concrete structures, such as surface crack and peel-off failure in the contact zone, was investigated due to temperature shock(rainfall). To investigate this failure phenomenon, the surface tensile stress, and the shear stress, the vertical tensile stress in the contact zone were analysed using the non-linear stress-strain relationship of material such as strain-hardening- and strain-softening diagrams. Rainfall intensity, overlay thickness and overlay material were the main variables in the analyses. It is assumed that the initial temperature of overlaid concrete structures was heated up to 55$\^{C}$ by the solar heat. With a rain temperature 10$\^{C}$ and the rainfall intensity of nR=1/a, tR=10min, 60min, the stress states of overlaid concrete structures were calculated. The result shows that only fictitious cracks occurred in the overlay surface and no shear bond failure occurred in the contact zone. The vortical tensile stress increasing with overlay thickness was proved to be the cause of peel-off failure in the contact zone. The formulae for relationship between the vertical tensile stress and overlay thickness, material properties were derived. Using this formulae, it is possible to select proper material and overlay thickness to prevent failure in the contact zone due to temperature shock caused by rainfall.

Numerical simulation was carried out for a propane fire of mass transfer rate 3g/m^2-s$ on a 1m high vertical wall. The objectives of this study are to confirm the outcomes of evaluation of the simulator through simulation of natural convection, and to compare the results of the wall fire with those of previous studies. It was confirmed that the simulated boundary layer was laminar at C_s=0.2$ while it was turbulent at C_s=0.1$. The z direction velocity showed lack of turbulent mixing as seen in the natural convection case, and the profiles of temperature and velocities were in relatively good agreement with those of experiment and previous simulation. It was found that the air entrainment into the boundary layer was well predicted.

Natural convection velocity and temperature profiles are obtained approximately in the core at boundary layer flow regime for varying Prandtl number in a low aspect ratio rectangular Enclosure. Analysis is based on the formally obtained core flow equations using the multiple scales method. Results show good agreement with the existing works for $P_{r}$ ~ 1. No comparison, however, is possible yet for $P_{r}$ >> 1 and $P_{r}$ < 1 due to the lack of available date. It is shown here that boundary layer flow regimes are governed by two parameters, A $R_{a}$$^{1}$4/ and A( $P_{r}$ $R_{a}$)$^{1}$4 for $P_{R}$.geq. 1 and $P_{r}$ < 1 respectively.ely.ively.ely.y.

This study examined the convective heat transfer characteristics of nanofluids flowing over a heated fine wire. Convective heat transfer coefficients were measured for four different nano-engine-oil samples under three different temperature boundary conditions, i.e., both or either variation of wire and fluid temperature and constant film temperature. Experimental investigations that the increase in the convective heat transfer coefficients of nanofluids in the internal pipe flow often exceeded the increase in thermal conductivity were recently published; however, the current study did not confirm these results. Analyzing the behavior of the convective heat transfer coefficient under various temperature conditions was a useful tool to explain the relation between the thermal conductivity and the boundary layer thickness of nanofluids.

Numerical simulation of natural convection along a vertical wall was carried out to evaluate the computational fluid dynamics simulator, which is to be utilized for study of vertical wall fires. The computed velocity and temperature profiles were compared with measurements over the turbulent boundary layer formed along the wall of 4m high and constant temperature. It fumed out that the simulator with default parameters failed to predict the turbulent natural convection showing the boundary layer flow laminar. The grid size $\Delta$x=5mm, ${\Delta}y={\Delta}z=10mm$ and Smagorinsky constant of the large eddy simulation $C_s$=0.1 were chosen through parametric investigations. Though turbulent mixing was not enough, the velocity distribution near wall, peak velocity, and temperature profile in the turbulent boundary layer agreed well with the measurements.

혼합층(Mixed layer)은 온도가 일정한 수심층으로, 해수표면에 작용하는 바람의 영향으로 인하여 해수가 위아래로 섞여 형성된다. 이러한 혼합층은 영양염의 순환과 산소의 공급 등과 함께 일차생산량을 결정하는 중요한 요인이 될 수 있으며 혼합층 두께의 변동은 양식 산업에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 최근에는 기후변화로 인한 해수면 상승 및 해수온 상승 등이 지속되고 있으며, 이러한 현상은 해양생태계의 변화를 초래하여 수산업의 피해를 유발할 수 있다(강원연구원, 2017). 이에 국립수산과학원, 기상청, 국립해양조사원 등 유관기관에서는 정선해양 수온 관측 및 해수순환모델을 이용하여 혼합층의 분석을 수행하고 있으나 격자 구축 및 초기·경계장 설정의 한계가 존재하여 정밀하고 정확한 혼합층 분석에는 어려움이 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 비정형격자를 사용하여 격자 구축에 제약이 없는 SCHISM (Semi-implicit Cross-scale Hydroscience Integrated System Model)을 이용하여 우리나라 연안해역의 계절변화 및 기후변동성에 따른 혼합층 두께의 변화를 검토하고자 한다. 연구대상지는 서해·동해·남해를 포함한 우리나라 전체 연안 해역(위도: 32°N ~ 39°N, 경도: 124°E ~ 132°E)으로 선정하였으며, 격자크기 100 ~ 3,000 m인 삼각격자로 격자를 구축하였다. 혼합층을 분석하기 위하여 수직격자 층은 50층으로 SZ(Sigma Z coordinate system)좌표계를 사용하였다. 초기·경계장은 FES(Finite Element Solution)2014, HYCOM(Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model) 및 대기모델 결과를 이용하여 설정하였다. 수치모형 검증을 위하여 수온관측소에서 수심별 측정한 수온 값과 SCHISM 결과 값을 비교하였고, 상대오차가 약 10% 이내로 나타나 모형의 정확도를 확인하였다. 최종적으로 해수면 상승 및 해수온 상승 시나리오를 고려하여 계절별 연안해역의 혼합층 두께의 변화 양상에 대하여 검토하였다. 향후에는 보다 정밀한 대기모델과의 혼합모형 구축 및 다양한 수심 별 관측자료를 활용한다면 실무에서 적용 가능한 혼합층 분석 및 수산업 피해 발생 지역에 대한 피해저감 대책 수립이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

The objective of this research is to study on the upper layer temperature, interface height and flow regime in case of several furniture fires such as trashcan, chair, carpet, sofa, mattress and wardrobe as a fire starter in a residential room by performing the experimental studies. The upper layer temperature and the Interface height were relatively well agreed with the experimental results when the flow coefficient at the opening was 0.65-0.8 for the rectangular trashcan, 0.65-0.9 for the circular trashcan and chair, and 0.7-0.9 for the carpet, sofa, mattress and wardrobe. The interface heights for the seven furniture fires were around 1[m] maintaining steady state. However, at the time of the maximum temperature, the interface height was lowered to 0.25[m]-0.75[m] from the floor. The flow regime at the opening was filling and buoyant for the distributed fire, and for the concentrated fire it was filling and then quickly changed to flow, and the flow period was long. The descending speed of the interface height was proportioned to the inflammability of the furniture and the contact surface area with air. The time required to come down around 1[m] was within 1-3 minutes.

Fluid temperature fluctuations in a mixing tee pipe were numerically analyzed by LES model in order to clarify internal turbulent flows and to develope an evaluation method for high-cycle thermal fatigue. Hot and cold water with an temperature difference $40^{\circ}C$ were supplied to the mixing tee. Fluid temperature fluctuations in a mixing tee pipe is analysed by using the computational fluid dynamics code, FLUENT, Temperature fluctuations of the fluid and pipe wall measured as the velocity ratio of the flow in the branch pipe to that in the main pipe was varied from 0.05 to 5.0. The power spectrum method was used to evaluate the heat transfer coefficient. The fluid temperature characteristics were dependent on the velocity ratio, rather than the absolute value of the flow velocity. Large fluid temperature fluctuations were occurred near the mixing tee, and the fluctuation temperature frequency was random. The ratios of the measured heat transfer coefficient to that evaluated by Dittus-Boelter's empirical equation were independent of the velocity ratio, The multiplier ratios were about from 4 to 6.

A one-dimensional eddy diffusion model and a mixed-layer model are developed and applied to simulate the vertical temperature profiles in lakes. Also the running results of each method are compared and analyzed. In an eddy diffusion model, molecular diffusivity is neglected and eddy diffusivity which does not need lake-specific fitting parameter and constant lake's level are applied. The heat exchanges at the water surface and the bottom are formulated by the energy balance and zero energy gradient, respectively. In a mixed-layer model, two layers approach which has a constant thickness is adopted. Application of these models which use explicit finite difference an Runge-Kutta methods respectively demonstrates that the models efficiently simulate water temperatures.
