In the periodic surveillance material test for the spacer component of fuel channel assembly in CANDU, a microstructural characterization analysis is required in addition to the mechanical property evaluation test. In this study, detailed microstructure analysis and simple mechanical property evaluation of archive spacer parts were conducted to indirectly support the surveillance test and assist in the study of spacer material degradation. We investigated the microstructural characteristics of the spacer garter spring coil through comparative analysis with the plate material. The main microstructure characteristics of the garter spring coil X-750 are represented by the fine grain size distribution, the ordering phase distribution developed inside the matrix, the high dislocation density inside the grains, and the arrangement of coarse carbides. In addition, the yield strength of the garter spring coil X-750 was indirectly evaluated to be approximately 1 GPa. We also established an analytical method to elucidate the microstructural evolution of the radioactive spacer garter spring coil X-750 based on Canadian research experiences. Finally, we confirmed the measurement technique for helium bubble formation through TEM examination on the helium implanted X-750 material.

High temperature solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) offer a clean, pollution-free technology to electrochemically generate electricity at high efficiencies. Solid oxide fuel cells in several different designs have been investigated; these include planar and tubular geometries. The tubular type cell is widely researched due to it have advantages about thermal expansion and sealing issues. Unfortunately, lab scale tubular cell for testing has thermal expansion and sealing problems. The previous Jig for lab scale tubular cell testing has many sealing problems. When we feed fuel gas to jig inlet, ceramic glue sealant has amount of gas expansion pressure, because temperature of feeding gas changes ambient temperature to high temperature ($700{\sim}900^{\circ}C$). Furthermore, when we carry out long time test, something like degradation test, crack of ceramic glue sealant due to weakness of mechanical properties can make stop working the test. Additionally, we reduce setting process for assembling, because micanite is not required drying or debinding process.

LNG 선박에 사용되는 초저온용 버터플라이 밸브의 개발에 있어, 누설검증은 가장 중요한 설계공정 중 하나이다. 초저온에서 누설방지가 가능한 실로서 인코넬 스프링과 같은 탄성지지체가 포함된 O-링 형태의 메탈실이 널리 사용되고 있으나, 제작비가 고가인 단점을 갖고 있다. 이에 대한 대안으로 부가적인 탄성지지체 없이도 누설조건을 만족시키며, 제작비가 저렴한 탄성 메탈실의 개발이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 탄성 메탈실의 누설방지를 위한 설계조건을 정립하여, 초저온 및 고압환경에서 누설방지가 가능한 탄성 메탈실의 형상을 수치해석을 통해 고찰하였다. 아울러 이를 기반으로 시제품을 개발하고, 상온 및 초저온 상태에서 BS6755 및 BS6364 에 준하는 누설시험을 실시하여 누설여부를 확인하였다.
