대부분의 화공부품은 소량 다품종으로 높은 신뢰도를 요구하고, 각각 제한적으로 사용되기 때문에 가격에 비하여 많은 개발비가 소요되어 산업체가 독자적으로 경제성을 기대하여 투자하기란 어렵다. 이러한 어려운 점을 극복하고 국가의 과학 및 방위산업의 지속적인 발전을 이룩하려면 독자적으로 우수한 기술을 선점하고 국제경쟁력을 갖추어 경제성을 갖도록 하여야 한다. 그렇게 될 때까지 주요 핵심기술에 대하여는 경제성에 집착하는 단기 안목을 버리고 정부 차원의 과감한 투자와 지속적 연구개발이 절실하다.

Recently, global warming and tropical nights have caused the use of electric fans to explode. Under these circumstances, running the fan for long periods of time is not only a risk of explosion due to overloading the power but also a small amount of electricity and environmental pollution. Therefore, the research was conducted to develop devices that automatically turn fans on and off according to room temperature, reducing the risk of explosion as well as saving energy. This study suggested that electric fans turn on and off automatically and display temperature in mobile applications. The ability to turn on and off allows the fan to turn on itself if the indoor temperature rises above a certain level. Conversely, if the indoor temperature drops below a certain level, the fan should be turned off. Second, the temperature display function checks indoor temperature through mobile applications. The automatic on/off capabilities proposed in this study could contribute to reducing the risk of explosion and saving energy. However, if the indoor temperature rises above a certain temperature even though there is no one inside, the fan can be turned on. The expectation from this study is that the ability of fans to operate and turn off at appropriate temperatures can reduce the risk of explosion, electrical charges, and environmental pollution.

Accident analysis are useful in the design stage of chemical plants and their surrounding structures. Also, analysis results are required for safety management of existing plants. In this paper, the fire and explosion effect by BTX released was evaluated. The computer program was prepared for accident analysis and adopted for evaluating the magnitude of fire (pool fire) and explosion (UVCE) effect. The thermal radiation was used as a measure of fire magnitude and the overpressure as a measure of explosion magnitude. And probit analysis was made for each case. As a case study, benzene tank model was used. The simulation results of explosion of benzene showed that the damage within 20 meters from the accident spot was severe and the damage beyond 60 meters was negligible. The simulation results of fire of benzene showed that the damage in summer is bigger than that in winter. And the damage of city located inland seems to be bigger than that of city in seaside. And thermal radiation effects was negligible beyond 40 meters-distance from the accident spot.

Three failure cases of CNG composite vessels were reported since after January 2005. The 1st and 2nd accidents were indebted to vessel defect and installation mistake. The 3rd was caused by gas leak at pipe connections. In this paper various aspects were studied based on information of the three failure analysis, which must be improved for better safety of the CNG bus system. Overpressure region caused by vessel explosion was theoretically predicted and also assessed by PHAST program. Explosion of 120 l vessel under 20 MPa is equivalent to 1.2 kg TNT explosion. The predicted value by PHAST was more serious than theoretical one. However, actual consequence of explosion was much less than both of the predicted consequences. Since the CNG vessel was designed by the performance based design methodology, it is difficult to verify whether the required process and tests were properly conducted or not after production. If material toughness is not enough, the vessel should be weak in brittle fracture at early in the morning of winter season since the metal temperature can be lower than the transition temperature. If autofrettage pressure is not correct, fatigue failure due to tensile stress during repeated charging is possible. One positive aspect is that fire did not ocurred after vessel failure. This may be indebted to fast diffusion of natural gas which hindered starting fire.

For the safe handling of isopropyl alcohol, the explosion limits were investigated. The lower flash points, upper flash points, fire point, and AITs(autoignition temperatures) by ignition time delay for isopropyl alcohol were experimented. By using literature data, the lower and upper explosion limits of isopropyl alcohol were recommended as 2.0 and 12.0 vol%, respectively. The lower flash points of isopropyl alcohol were experimented $12{\sim}14^{\circ}C$ by using closed-cup tester and $18{\sim}19^{\circ}C$ by using open cup tester. And the upper flash points of isopropyl alcohol was experimented $38^{\circ}C$ by using Setaflash closed-cup tester. This study measured relationship between the AITs and the ignition delay times by using ASTM E659 apparatus was $463^{\circ}C$.

The flash points and the fire points are one of the most important combustible properties used to determine the potential for the fire and explosion hazards of flammable substances. In this study, the flash points of aromatic hydrocarbons, were measured by using Pensky-Martens Closed Cup apparatus(ASTM-D93) and Tag Open-Cup apparatus(ASTM D 1310-86). Also the fire points of aromatic hydrocarbons, were measured by using Tag Open-Cup apparatus. The measured flash points were in good agreement with reference values. The measured fire points compared with the estimated values based on 1.23 times stoichiometric concentration. The values calculated by the proposed equation were in agreement with measured values.

Estimations of depth, magnetic orientation, and strength of dipole moments aid discrimination between unexploded ordnance (UXO) and non-UXO using magnetic surveys. Such estimations may be hindered by geologic noise, magnetic clutter, and overlapping tails of nearby dipole fields. An improved method of inversion for anomalies of single or multiple dipoles with arbitrary polarization was developed to include intra-inversion filtering and estimation of background field gradients. Data interpolated to grids are flagged so that only nodes nearest to measurement stations are used. To apply intra-inversion filtering to such data requires a gapped filter. Moreover, for data with significant gaps in coverage, or along the edges or corners of survey areas, intra-inversion filters must be appropriately modified. To that end, edge-adaptive and gapped gradient-nulling filters have been designed and tested. Applications are shown for magnetic field data from Chongcho Lake, Sokcho, Korea and the U. S. Army's Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland.

Multi-channel DAQ system was developed to predict propagation characteristic of the shock wave generated by linear explosive. The system can generate shock wave from 1000 points per second using a pulsed laser and simultaneously obtain the shock wave signals using 15 chanel contact sensor. The system is expected to pridict the propagation characteristics of various linear explosive-induced pyroshock because it can be used with a user-defined time delay that corresponds to detonation speed of the linear explosive.
