원자력발전소 배관에 대한 일반적인 파단전누설(LBB)개념 적용절차 및 해석 방법에 대해 간단히 기술하였다. 그러나 LBB해석방법은 배관의 크기 및 작용하중의 상태에 따라 많은 차이가 있 으므로 보다 많은 배관에 LBB개념을 적용하여 설계하기 위해서는 합리적인 해석방법의 마련, 배관재질의 파괴인성치 향상 및 원자력발전소의 운전조건 개선 등을 위한 계속적인 노력이 필요 하리라고 판단된다.

풍력 발전기의 블레이드는 다른 회전기와는 달리 항상 지면의 경계층, 요-에러에 의한 어긋난 유입류, 타워와의 간섭효과의 환경에서 운영된다. 따라서 정상운전상태에서도 이와 같은 환경에서 겪게 되는 공력하중의 해석이 블레이드의 설계에서 중요하게 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 이의 비정상 공력하중해석을 위하여 자유후류기법을 이용한 방법을 연구하였다. 특히, 타워와의 간섭해석을 위하여 FVE라 명명한 후류 모델을 개발하여 적용하였다.

본 논문에서는 유한요소모델을 사용하여 원자력 발전용 해수 여과장치에 대한 동적 내진해석을 수행하였다. 장치의 검증을 위해서 운전기준지진(Operating Basis Earthquake, OBE)과 안전정지지진(Safe Shutdown Earthquake, SSE)이 설계하중으로 작용하였을 때 부재에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 해석대상은 유한요소법을 사용하여 수학적 모델링을 완성하였고, 층응답스펙트럼(Floor Response Spectrum, FRS)에 따른 지진하중과 사하중등을 적용하여 해석을 수행하였다. 해석된 해수여과장치의 최대변위는 OBE 조건에서 2.5 mm 이고, SSE 조건에서 최대변위는 4.6 mm 이다. 최대응력은 OBE 조건에서 24 MPa, SSE 조건에서 44 MPa이며, 이 값은 재료의 항복강도의 각각 18%, 27% 수준이다. 이에 따라 지진하중조건에 따른 해수여과장치의 구조적 안전성이 제시되었다.

액체금속로는 기존의 가압경수로와는 달리 55$0^{\circ}C$ 정도의 고온에서 운전이 되므로 고온 열응력이 중요한 문제로 대두되며 따라서 고은에서의 크립(Creep) 변형, 반복되는 기동과 정지 등으로 인한 되풀이 소성변형, 라체팅(Ratchetting), 크립과 소성의 상호작용 및 크립과 피로의 상호작용 등의 평가에 대한 기술 확립과 고온구조물에 대한 우리의 독자적인 설계방법을 개발하는 것이 필요하다 본 연구에서는 범용 유한요소해석코드인 ABAQUS의 축대칭 요소를 이용해서 액체 금속로 원자로용기와 이에 부착된 열소매(Thermal sleeve)를 Y-형태의 구조물로 모델링하여 반복되는 열천이하중에 대한 비탄성 구조해석을 수행하고 크립효과에 대한 영향을 분석하였다. 해석결과 액체금속로와 같은 고온구조물에 대하여 반복 열천이 하중과 고온 지속시간이 유발하는 크립효과가 크게 나타남을 알 수 있었다.

The influence of the inlet pressure on bearing performance of tilting pad bearings in laminar regime is examined. A simple flow model is presented to calculate the inlet pressure in inlet flow that occurs at a short distance ahead of the bearing inlet. The bearing performances are obtained, load capacity, friction torque and lubricated flow-rate, etc, numerically for the inlet pressure boundary conditions with and without pressure jump. The computed results of both cases show that bearing performance and the optimum pivot position changes remarkably according to the bearing operating conditions. The influence of the inlet pressure on bearing performance must be considered to analyze the bearing performance precisely.

This paper is concerned with the characteristics on the statistical parameters of vibration signal from bearing with changing its operating conditions as well as the spreading of faults. The rms, Kurtosis, crest factor, probability of exceedance and probability density function have been chose as the statistical parameters. To characterize of each, vibration signals have been recorded from four ball tester at different loads, operation speeds and time. The values of the statistical parameters for each frequency band have been calculated after A/D conversion and digital filtering of the recorded signals. It has been found that unlike rms values the statistical parameters such as Kurtosis etc. are almost unchanging with the change of the operating conditions such as load and speed. This suggests that the statistical parameters may be used for determining the development of faults independent of the operating conditions. In fact, the statistical parameters deviate considerably from their respective normal values when the faults developed under load conditions in the samples, conforming the suggestion.

In this study, we conduct power performance and load analyses of two different types of vertical-axis tidal-current turbines using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. To analyze the power output and loads, we perform transient CFD simulations considering the cavitation model using ANSYS CFX. The averaged power output of an H-type rotor was 7.47 kW and 67.6 kW in normal and extreme operating conditions, respectively, which did not satisfy the initial design conditions. However, in the case of the helical-type rotor, the power output under normal and extreme conditions were close to the expected values. The cavitation, which may cause instantaneous power fluctuation, occurred repeatedly at the suction side of the rotors. In order to guarantee a more stable power supply and to prevent fatigue failure, we require a design that minimizes cavitation.

Boilers of large-sized coal-fired power plants are being operated under very poor conditions such as continuous operation or repeating of start-up and shutdown for a stable supply of electricity. Thus periodic inspection and maintenance are required to ensure reliability of operation. The loads of existing scaffolding systems for the maintenance of boilers are concentrated in the lower parts structurally, which may cause a serial collapse of the overall scaffolding system when there are problems in some members. Therefore, in this study, a safe furnace scaffolding system is developed by dispersing the loads in the upper part, as well as minimizing the hazards of serial collapsing. In addition, for cases where the direct installation of furnace scaffolding is challenging owing to the structure of the boiler tube, a lifting system for the installation of furnace scaffolding is developed so that furnace scaffolding can be supported to secure the integrity of the power generating facility.

An end beam is one of the most important structural members supporting uncovered freight under in-service loading. In general, it needs to endure over 25 years. However fatigue fracture has occurred at dynamic stress concentration location of the end beam because user's specifications demanded high speed and vehicle manufacturer made the uncovered freight car with comparatively low strength and stiffness. For durability analysis, finite element analysis is performed to evaluate the problem of uncovered freight structure and local strain. The uncovered freight car was operated on actual problematic railroad line to measure dynamic stress versus time history on the critical part from which a crack is initiated often. Rainflow cycle counting method was used to estimate fatigue damage at dangerous area under operating condition. Therefore, this study shows that analytical fatigue life at the end beam can be predicted on the basis of S-N curve and structure analysis and has a fairly good correlation with experimental fatigue life.

The reliability on high cycle fatigue damage mechanism for new blades manufactured by reverse-engineering is demonstrated by success-run test. Turbine blades always experience various dynamic loads in turbine operation, as well as being in resonance condition and forced by fluid-induced vibrations mostly during run-up/down, which may accumulate high cycle damage to the blades. The accidents caused by blade failure especially incur not only a lot of troubles to the machinery but also huge financial losses. Therefore it is necessary to verify the reliability of blades in advance for the safe use. The success run test for the reliability demonstration is designed and performed for the new blades using the technique known as resonant high cycle fatigue testing.
