Domestically developed concrete storage casks include an internal canister to maintain the confinement integrity of radio-active materials. In this study, we analyzed the depth of flaws caused by loads that propagate canister weld cracks under normal, off-normal and accident conditions, and evaluated the maximum allowable weld flaw depth needed to secure the structural integrity of the canister weld and to reduce the welding time of the internal canister lid of the concrete storage cask. Structural analyses for normal, off-normal and accident conditions were performed using the general-purpose finite element analysis program ABAQUS; the allowable flaw depth was assessed according to ASME B&PV Code Section XI. Evaluation results revealed an allowable canister weld flaw depth of 18.75 mm for the concrete storage cask, which satisfies the critical flaw depth recommended in NUREG-1536.

This paper is a study of the behavior characteristics that occur in the hydrogen storage vessel TYPE 1 according to pressure and temperature conditions by FEM(Finite element method). Von Mises stress (VMS) generated at the highest pressure was compared with Yield strength (YS) of the material for structural safety assessment of the container, and the results of plastic strain energy density (PSED) were analyzed as basic data for life expectancy. According to the analysis results, the safety of the hydrogen gas storage vessel is not ensured due to the occurrence of VMS higher than the yield strength on the bottom of the storage container at a gas pressure of 40 Mpa or higher. In addition, the results of VMS caused by temperature conditions are very low and the behavior by temperature can be ignored. The maximum pressure of VMS/YS below 1 is calculated to be about 30 Mpa, indicating that the hydrogen storage container subject to this paper should be managed with a gas charging pressure of less than 30 Mpa.

It is necessary to keep Kimchi at 0~5$^{\circ}C$ all around the year to maintain its taste, which is very sensitive to temperature changes. In addition to temperature for maintenance of taste, property of container is also important to control the activity of bacteria involved in Kimchi. As a pottery container is the best one for the bacterial activity, it was used to store Kimchi. Pottery is shielded by cooling pipe directly, and temperature of Kimchi is controlled by the independent temperature controller.

전 세계는 온실 가스의 방출을 줄이기 위하여 기존의 화석연료를 대체할 수 있는 에너지를 찾기 위해 연구개발에 박차를 가하고 있다. 이러한 계속적인 연구에서, 전 세계의 국가들은 태양열, 풍력, 지열 및 수소에너지와 같이 화석연료를 대체할 다양한 가스를 조사해왔다. 대체에너지 중 수소 연료는 실제로 배출가스가 없기 때문에 가장 유망한 대안이라고 할 수 있다. 연료전지자동차용 연료로 수소를 사용하기 위해서는 저장합금, 액체 및 압축 상태로 저장할 수 있다. 이 중 세계 대부분의 자동차 메이커 들은 수소를 압축하는 방식을 채택하고 있으며, 주행거리를 확보하기 위하여 고압상태로 수소가스를 저장하는 방식을 사용한다. 수소연료전지 자동차용으로 고압의 수소를 저장할 수 있고, 자동차에 탑재할 수 있도록 가벼운 용기의 개발이 진행되고 있다. 이 중 Type3와 Type4 형태의 용기가 시범적으로 적용되고 있으며, 이러한 용기의 안전성을 확보하기 위한 기준들이 국 내외에서 개발되고 있다. 현재 국제기준 중 UN ECE의 WG.29에서 선진국들을 중심으로 수소연료전지 자동차용 용기의 안전성 평가를 위한 기준을 개발하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 ISO. 15869의 기술기준에 대한 안전성 분석과 미국의 SAE J2579의 기술 보고서에서 제시한 새로운 개념의 안전성 평가 기법을 기준으로 제정되고 있는 UN ECE WG.29의 draft초안을 비교하고, 향후 수소연료전지 자동차용 용기를 위한 국내기준의 방향을 제시하고자 한다.

Since 2002, more than 400 PWR spent nuclear fuel assemblies have been transported and stored on-site using transport casks in order to secure the storage capacity of PWR spent nuclear fuel of Kori nuclear power plant. The complete on-site transport system, which includes KN-12 transport casks, the related equipment and transport vehicles, had been developed and provided. KN-12 transport casks were designed, fabricated and licensed in accordance with Korean and IAEA's transport regulations, and the related equipment was also provided in accordance with the related regulations. The on-site transport and storage operation using two KN-12 casks and the related equipment has been conducted, and the strict Quality Control and Radiation Safety Management through the whole process has been carried out so as to achieve the required safety and reliability of the on-site transport of spent nuclear fuel.

The efficacy of an experimentally designed cold chain container and a currently used styrofoam container was investigated with respect to important factors affecting the quality of fresh beef during storage under different conditions. The temperature in the TEPP-1 container was maintained at $5^{\circ}C$ using a phase change material (PCM) during transport and delivery. During storage in the TEPP-1 container, no significant difference was observed in pH of beef, but color decreased slightly, which does not affect the desire to purchase. After storage for 7 days, the rate of VBN and TBA in the TEPP-1 container, was lower than that in the TEPP-2 container. Drip loss was lower in the TEPP-1 container (0.87%) than in the TEPP-2 container (1.78%). No significant changes were observed in microbal count until 4 days in either of the containers, but after storage for 7 days, the count increased significantly. Microbial count in TEPP-1 was 6.65 log CFU/mL and that in TEPP-2 was 7.62 log CFU/mL. The results of sensory evaluations indicated that the overall acceptability of beef after storage for 7 days was better in the TEPP-1 container than in the TEPP-2 container. The EPS container was inferior in comparison with TEPP-1 and TEPP-2. It was impossible to continue the experiment using the EPS container after 3 days. These results suggest that the experimentally designed TEPP-1 container can be used for beef transport and delivery for 7 days without significantly affecting the quality of beef.

Commercial tofu was cut and re-packed in a vacuum container, an airtight container and an open tofu tray in an effort to assess the effects of vacuum containers on the shelf life of leftover tofu. The re-packed tofu were stored at $5^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$ for the enumeration of total bacteria and coliforms. We also measured changes in color, pH, and opacity. The vacuum retarded the bacterial growth under $10^5$ CFU/mL for up to 12 days at $5^{\circ}C$. The color of the tofu was unaffected by the container type at both storage temperatures, whereas the pH and opacity of the immersion solution were altered less profoundly by storage in the vacuum container at $5^{\circ}C$. However, we noted no significant differences in bacterial growths, pH, and opacity among container types at $25^{\circ}C$. The results of this study showed that the usage of vacuum containers may be a favorable method for the preservation of tofu under refrigerated conditions.

차량의 충돌에 따른 등유의 누출에 의한 화재와 항공기 충돌에 따른 항공유의 누출에 의한 화재 발생 시 격실의 개구부 크기에 따른 화염온도를 평가하기 위해 화원으로 등유와 Jet-A-1을 사용하고 개구부의 크기를 조절해 가며 격실화재시험을 수행하였으며, 가장 높게 측정된 시험결과의 조건으로 과도화재시험을 수행하여 금속저장용기가 화염온도에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 시험결과 등유보다 Jet-A-1의 열 방출속도 및 질량 연소유속이 크게 나타났으며, Jet-A-1에서의 화염온도가 높게 측정되었다. 연료 소모율은 개구부의 크기가 클 경우 작은 경우보다 크게 나타났으며, 개구부의 크기가 클 경우 화염온도가 높게 측정되었다. 격실 내에 금속저장용기가 저장되었을 때는 저장용기가 화염으로부터 받는 열량만큼 화염의 온도는 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다.

Bird screen meshes are installed at the air inlet and outlet ducts of spent fuel storage casks to inhibit the intrusion of debris from the external environment. The presence of these screens introduces an additional resistance to air flow through the ducts. In this study, a porous media model was developed to simplify the bird screen meshes. CFD analyses were used to derive and verify the flow resistance factors for the porous media model. Thermal analyses were carried out for concrete storage cask using the porous media model. Thermal tests were performed for concrete casks with bird screen meshes. The measured temperatures were compared with the analysis results for the porous model. The analysis results agreed well with the test results. The analysis temperatures were slightly higher than the test temperatures. Therefore, the reliability and conservatism of the analysis results for the porous model have been verified.
