In this paper, purpose of study is emissions characteristics according to effects of heating value variations of CNG fuel in a dual-fuel engine fueled by diesel and natural gas. For heating value variation of CNG fuel, nitrogen gas was mixed with pure CNG fuel. So the higher heating value was changed from $10,400kcal/Nm^3$ to $9,400kcal/Nm^3$. Under one condition of CNG substitution rate was fixed at 80%, diesel fuel was injected at a fixed injection timing of 16 CAD BTDC and fuel pressure was also fixed at 110 MPa. The condition of tested engine was 1800 rpm and 500Nm. Emissions were sampled in exhaust pipe was located at downstream turbocharger. As a result, emissions characteristics were checked in heating value variations of CNG fuel with mixed nitrogen gas THC, $CH_4$ and CO emissions decreased and NOx and $CO_2$ increased.

Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is an attractive fuel for ships considering its current technology and economic viability. However, safety guidelines for LPG-fueled ships are still under development, and there have been no cases of applying LPG propulsion systems to small and medium-sized ships in Korea. The purpose of this study was to perform an objective risk assessment for the first marine LPG engine system and propose safe operational standards. First, hazard and operability (HAZOP) analysis was used to divide the engine system into five nodes, and 58 hazards were identified. To compensate for the subjectivity of qualitative evaluation using HAZOP analysis, fuzzy set theory was used, and additional risk factors, such as detectability and sensitivity, were included to compare the relative weights of the risk factors using a fuzzy analytical hierarchy process. As a result, among the five risk factors, those with a major impact on risk were determined to be the frequency and severity. Finally, the fuzzy technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) was applied to select the risk rank more precisely by considering the weights of the risk factors. The risk level was divided into 47 groups, and the major hazard during the operation of the engine system was found through the analysis to be gas leakage during maintenance of the LPG supply line. The technique proposed can be applied to various facilities, such as LPG supply systems, and can be utilized as a standard procedure for risk assessment in developing safety standards for LPG-powered ships.

Since continuous descent operations (CDO) is one of several tools available to aircraft operators and air navigation service providers (ANSPs) to increase safety, flight predictability, and airspace capacity while reducing noise, controller-pilot communications, fuel burn and emissions, widespread implementation of CDO would result in significant reductions in the environmental impact and aircraft operation costs in south korea as well. After analyzing each procedure from standard terminal arrival routes used for the Incheon international airport, it can be noticed that one of the procedures has a relatively high altitude constraint at initial approach fix than others, which lead the pilots to use unnecessary drag device in certain situations. Therefore we came to a conclusion that some arrival procedures need to be revised, so unnecessary procedure required during approach can be minimized, thereby reducing fuel consumption, noise and emissions compared to current approach procedures. And it is going to increase the safety margin significantly during approach phase due to reduced workload.

Nuclear materials such as uranium are used as fuel for nuclear power generation, but there is a high possibility that they will be used for non-peaceful purposes, so international inspections and regulations are being conducted. Isotope analysis data of fine particulate obtained from nuclear facilities can provide important information on the origin and concentration method of nuclear material, so it is widely used in the field of nuclear safety and nuclear forensics. In this study we describe the analytical method that can directly identify nuclear particles and measure their isotopic ratios for fine samples using a large-geometry secondary ion mass spectrometer and introduce its preliminary results. Using the U-200 standard material, the location of fine particles was identified and the results consistent with the standard value were obtained through microbeam analysis.

비정상(unsteady) 화재성장이 발생되는 반밀폐된 구획에서 환기부족화재의 열 및 화학적 특성에 관한 FDS(Fire Dynamics Simulator)의 예측성능 평가가 수행되었다. 이를 위해 실규모 ISO 9705 표준 화재실의 출입구 폭이 0.1m로 축소되었으며, spray 노즐을 통해 Heptane 연료유량은 선형적으로 증가되었다. 수치계산에 대한 신뢰도 확보를 위하여 동일조건에서 수행된 실험결과와의 상세한 비교가 이루어졌다. 적절한 격자계를 이용한 FDS의 결과는 구획 내부의 온도 및 열유속(heat flux)은 비교적 잘 예측하지만, 비정상 CO 및 $CO_2$ 생성특성은 적절히 예측하지 못함을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과는 최근 수행된 유사조건의 정상상태 환기부족 구획화재에 대한 FDS 예측결과와 상반된 것으로서, 반밀폐된 구획화재 모델링에서 FDS를 이용한 비정상 CO 생성특성 예측에 상당한 주위가 요구됨을 확인하였다.

최근 국제유가 상승과 탄소배출량 규제에 따른 친환경 선박의 개발 요구가 증대되고 있으며 이는 일반선 뿐만 아니라 어선에서도 마찬가지이다. 본 논문에서는 유류비 증가 및 어선의 노후화 등으로 인한 국내 어업 경쟁력의 약화 및 채산성 악화를 극복하기 위한 방안으로 연근해 어선용 추진기 개발을 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 현재 국내 어선현황에 기초하여 대표 선종인 130톤급 예망어선을 대상선으로 선정하고 추진기의 추진성능을 이론 및 실험적으로 평가 분석하였으며, 모형 시험 및 수치 해석 결과를 종합해 볼 때, 대상선의 프로펠러는 과도한 캐비테이션이 발생되는 상태에서 매운 높은 수준의 소음과 진동이 발생하는 것으로 추측된다. 이는 어선의 추진력 감소에 따른 연료비의 증대, 캐비테이션에 의한 추진기 손상, 과도하게 발생되는 소음에 따른 어획량 감소의 주된 원인이 된다. 본 연구를 통해 일반 상선의 추진성능 평가에 적용되는 최신 기술을 어선 추진기에 적용하여 모형시험 및 이론 성능 평가 과정을 정립하였으며, 이를 통해 앞으로 어선 추진기의 성능을 상당 부분 개선할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The importance of electric vehicles is gradually increasing due to the recent depletion of fossil fuels. In order to use an electric vehicle, the battery built into the vehicle must be frequently charged. Electric vehicles has very good performance in terms of noise and vibration. However, due to the limitations of the battery, the mileage is considerably shorter than that of an internal combustion engine vehicle once it is charged, and the battery charging time is relatively long compared to the refueling time. There are two types of charging methods for electric vehicle batteries: plug-in and wireless charging. In this paper, we introduced the wireless charging technology for electric vehicles and the current state of technology development and standards in major countries.
