가압경수로의 부분충수 운전중 RHR 계통의 기능상실시 사고완화를 위해 가압기 manway와 증기 발생기 출구공동 manway를 동시에 개방한 경우에 대한 실험결과를 CATHAHR2 코드를 이용하여 해석하였다. 해석을 통해 이 경우에 발생하는 물리적 현상을 이해하고 이와 같은 과도기에 대해 코드 예측능력을 평가하므로 써, 실제 원전에서 사고시 적절한 사고대응 방안을 강구하는데 참고가 될 수 있도록 해석적 근거를 제시하고자 한다. 연구결과 CATHARE2 코드는 실험을 통해 관측된 주요 물리적 현상들을 타당하게 예측하였으나, 가압기와 밀림관의 DP를 과대 예측하여 원자로 상부공동의 최대압력을 실험보다 약 7kPa 높게 예측하였다. 노심 노출시간도 노심에서 기포율 분포를 비현실적으로 예측하여 실험보다 약 500초 지연되었다. 실험과 코드의 모의결과를 통하여 노심 노출은 중력주입에 의한 냉각수 보충만으로 충분히 회복될 수 있음을 확인하였다. CATHARE2 코드는 비록 상세한 현상들에 대해 다소 불확실성을 내포하였으나, 전반적인 거동분석에는 타당한 것으로 판단된다. CATHARE 코드는 노심에서 계면 마찰력을 줄임으로써 노심의 차압을 개선할 수 있었고, guide 튜브의 위치를 고온관 중심선과 일치시켜 guide 튜브내 액체의 hold-up 기간을 개선할 수 있었으며, 가압기의 계면 마찰력을 증가시켜서 밀림관에서 "plug and clearing" 현상을 모의할 수 있었다.모의할 수 있었다.

Generally, the flow hunting is observed in almost all of the orifice meters but the intensity of the flow hunting is different at each metering system. In order to investigate the relations between pipe diameter and the flow instability or the flow hunting in a real metering system, a one-dimensional pipeline network model was built and analyzed for the examination of flow characteristics and relations to the flow hunting, changing diameters of the meter and the pipes before and after the meter. Finally, the effects of pressuredifference variation and flow hunting following to the variations of the diameters of the meter and the pipes before and after the meter were investigated and the relations were examined as well.

Direct acting pressure relief valve applicable to propellant tank of launch vehicle is modeled in this study The flow resistance of the partially opened valve is modeled as a function of the distance of the valve stem from the resting position. The position of the valve varies transiently as a function of its mass, the spring force, sliding friction, and the pressure differential. Choking at valve throat and compressibility are considered for the analysis. This study presents systematic analysis method for pressure relief valve applicable to propellant tank of liquid rocket. The results shows transient flow resistance caused by stem motion and the importance of choking at valve throat for pressure relief valve design.

Unlike an international combustion engine car, a battery-powered electric vehicle requires an additional heat source for its heating system. A high-voltage coolant heater has the advantages of high efficiency and a wide operating temperature range. In its development, the geometry design of the coolant flow path is essential. This paper presents the thermal flow simulations of a 7kW high-voltage heater with symmetric serpentine flow channels arranged parallelly. The heater performance was evaluated from the simulation results in terms of the pressure and temperature differences and the flow uniformity. The proposed design showed a greater flow resistance and similar heat exchanging capability than the existing parallel serpentine design. It has the advantage of a relatively wide low-temperature surface area, where the control circuit board susceptible to high temperatures can be located.

In this of study, effects of input air velocity(0.05~0.22 m/sec) and molten carbonate salt temperature ($870{\sim}970^{\circ}C$) on flow regime transition have been studied by adopting a drift-flux model of air holdup and a stochastic analysis of differential pressure fluctuations in an air-molten sodium carbonate salt two-phase system(molten salt oxidation process). Air holdup where the flow regime transition begins was determined by air holdup-drift flux plot. The air holdup value which the flow regime transition begins was increased with increasing molten carbonate salt temperature due to the decrease of viscosity and surface tension of molten carbonate salt. To characterize the flow regime transition more quantitatively, differential pressure fluctuation signals have been analyzed by adopting the stochastic method such as phase space portraits and Kolmogorov entropy, The Kolmogorov entropy decreased with an increasing of molten carbonate salt temperature but increased gradually with an increase in an air velocity, however, it exhibited different tendency with the flow regime and the air velocity value which flow regime transition begins was same to the results of drift-flux analysis.

In this paper results of a linear structural analysis for design and dimensioning of disposal containers for spent pressurized water reactor nuclear fuel and spent Canadian deuterium and uranium reactor nuclear fuel are presented. The container structure studied here is a solid structure with a cast insert and a corrosion resistant outer shell, which is designed for the spent nuclear fuel disposal in a deep repository. An evenly distributed load of hydrostatic pressure from the groundwater and large swelling pressure from the bentonite buffer are applied on the container. Hence, the container must be designed to endure these large pressure loads. In this study, the array type of inner baskets and thicknesses of outer shell and lid/bottom are attempted to be determined through a linear static structural analysis.

Methods to distinguish flow regimes in gas-solid fluidized bed have been investigated by adopting the concept of chaos theory. Pressure fluctuations have been chosen as a state variable for the analysis of the system. Pressure fluctuations obtained from differential pressure transducer have been investigated using the chaos analysis (Correlation dimension and Kolmogorov entropy) as well as the average and standard deviation. As a result, fluidization regimes in gas-solid fluidized bed can be distinguished by statistics methods as the average and standard deviation. Also, Correlation dimension and Kolmogorov entropy could be used to classify the fluidization regimes.

직접메탄올 연료전지는 액체 메탄올 저장의 이점을 가지고 있어 이동형 전원 등의 응용에 적합하며, 최근 군사용 통신 전원이나 노트북용 전원으로 사용하기 위한 연구가 활발히 진행 중이다. 그러나 연료전지 스스로는 초기 기동을 할 수 없고 부하의 응답 특성에 빠르게 대응하기 어렵다. 따라서 연료전지와 배터리를 하이브리드로 구성하면 이러한 문제를 해결할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 연료전지에 대한 부하가 안정되어 수명 연장에도 긍정적인 효과를 얻을 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 직접메탄올 연료전지와 리튬 이차전지를 연계하여 하이브리드 시스템을 구성하고자한다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 채널 형상에 따른 유동 및 차압을 해석하였으며, Single Cell, Short Stack 및 Stack의 특성을 평가하였다. 또한 하이브리드 시스템은 연료전지 스택, 연료전지 운전 장치, 리튬 이차전지, BMS, PCM, DC/DC Converter 등을 구성하여 시스템의 특성 등을 관찰하고자한다.

In order to design efficient and effective pressure cooling system for fruits and vegetables, a numerical model for temperature prediction of fruits was developed. This model was extended to study the various factors affecting product cooling time, such as product depth, approach air temperature, entering air velocity and initial product temperature. Also, selection of these factors were examined with respect to the efficiency of the pressure cooling system, the overall precooling cost and the final quality of the product. When designing a pressure cooling system for a particular product, the range of the factors must be selected carefully according to the thermal and physiological properties.
