In this paper, the heat transfer characteristics of Jet A-1, which is used as a coolant and fuel in a regeneratively cooled thrust chamber, were experimentally studied. By varying the applied current for heating the cooling channel, the simulated specimen diameter, the specimen outlet pressure and the coolant flow rate, the wall temperatures of the specimen and the Jet A-1 temperatures at the specimen inlet/outlet were measured. It was found that the specimen diameter and the flow rate were important factors for the characteristics of heat transfer and the outlet pressure did not affect the performance of heat transfer. The results of the heat transfer experiments were compared with the previous Nusselt number empirical equations and novel Nusselt number empirical equations were finally derived.

In this paper, we propose an independent cooling control (ICC) scheme for high strength and atmosphere corrosion resisting steel to obtain the desired temperature and properties along the longitudinal direction of the steel in the run-out table (ROT) process. A temperature model of the independent process is developed to divide the ROT into front and back sections. The control concept uses field data, problem analysis, and a time-temperature transformation diagram. The effectiveness of the proposed control is verified using simulation results under a temperature disturbance by the transformation in the middle of the ROT. The results of a hot strip mill field test show that the temperature control performance is significantly improved by the proposed control scheme.

For the energy's effective utilization, the mixed humidifier has been developed and popularized by combining the cooling dehumidifier with the desiccant humidifier properly. This has contributed in many ways to the industry. Hybrid Desiccant Dehumidifier that would be shown in this study could be indispensible in site due to the reduced equipment, with more than 50% reduction in energy.

냉각재중의 방사능을 띤 성분 중에는 이온교환기에서 제거가 가능한 이온성분과 함께 필터에 의해서 주로 제거되는 입자성 물질로 존재한다. 운전중의 냉각재내 방사성 부식생성물의 물리적 조성 분포 측정 결과에 따르면 90%이상이 0.45$mu extrm{m}$필터에 의해 제거되는 입자성 물질로 구성되어 있다. 이로 인해 새수지 충전후 얼마 사용하지 않은 탈염기의 제염계수가 탈염기에서 완벽한 제거가 어려운 입자성 부식생성물로 인해 10이하를 나타낼 수 있다. 1차계통에 쓰이는 수지의 성능검사를 위해 사용하고 있는 현재의 제염계수 측정법은 다음과 같은 두가지 이유로 완벽하지 않음을 알 수 있다. 첫째, 냉각재중의 방사능을 띤 성분중에는 이온교환기에서 제거가 가능한 이온성분과 함께 필터에 의해 제거되는 입자성 물질도 함께 존재하므로 탈염기의 제염계수 측정 절차는 입자성 물질을 배제한 후 측정해야 하며, 특히 수치 교체를 결정하기 위한 제염계수 측정시에는 여과된 여액으로 방사능 농도를 측정하는 것이 바람직하다. 둘째 운전중인 냉각재의 시료중에는 핵분열 수율이 높고 핵연료봉 손상부위로 유출이 용이한 불활성 기체핵종들이 많이 존재하며, 탈염기 후단에서 채취한 시료중에도 많이 존재하고, 시료 이송과 방사능 측정동안의 짧은 시간동안에도 계속 붕괴반응함으로서 새로 생긴 핵종으로 인해 마치 탈염기의 제거능이 낮은 것으로 오판될 수 있다. 이러한 측정 오차인자를 고려하여야 1차계통 탈염기의 교환능력을 정확히 판정할 수 있다.

우라늄전착물의 염 증류공정은 pyroprocess의 bottle neck에 해당되며, 회분식으로 조업된다. 본 발명에서는 증류탑 전단계에 고액분리실을 설치하고, 증류탑 후단에 냉각실을 설치하여, 전착물 도가니가 고액분리조- 증류조- 냉각조를 순차적으로 통과하여 조업시간을 크게 단축할 수 있도록 하였다. 또 도가니가 고온에서 이동할 수 있도록 중간에 고온 밸브를 설치하여 도가니가 다음 단계로 이동하면 새로운 전착물 도가니가 도입되어 연속적으로 조업이 가능하여 처리 용량이 향상되도록 하였다. 이에 따라 단위 시간당 처리용량을 현저히 높일 수 있다.

A regeneratively-cooled channel in a liquid rocket engine is used to effectively cool a combustion chamber inner wall from hot combustion gas, and the heat transfer/pressure loss characteristics should be predicted in advance to design cooling channels. In the present research, five cooling channels with different geometric dimensions were designed and the channels were respectively manufactured using cutter and endmill. By changing coolant velocity and downstream pressure, the effects of manufacturing method, channel shape, and flow condition on pressure losses were experimentally investigated and the results were compared with the analytical results. At same channel shape and flow condition, the pressure loss in the channel machined by the cutter was lower than that by the endmill. It was also found that the pressure loss ratio between the experimental result and the analytical data changed with the channel shape and flow condition.

In this study, the cooling characteristics of combustion gas were investigated by injecting liquid nitrogen ($LN_2$) into a liquid rocket combustion chamber, which uses liquid oxygen (Lox) and kerosene as propellants. $LN_2$ injectors and an extended chamber for mixing were installed at the end of the ordinary LRE combustion chamber, and a nozzle was installed after the chamber for mixing. First, an ignition test of the liquid rocket engine was conducted to verify the stable combustion process. Next, a hot firing test was performed step-by-step for safety. Finally, the test was performed for 20 s. The results showed that the combustion gas of the LRE could be successfully cooled by using $LN_2$.

This paper describes the design and analysis of a periscope imaging system installed at the engine test facility in the Agency for Defense Development. The periscope system is a cylinder-shaped image observation system installed at the rear of the engine and at the top of the diffuser. The periscope system has high risk of breaking because it is directly affected by high temperature (2300 K) and products of combustion. Thus, we used 1D heat transfer calculation, and 2D and 3D CFD analysis to confirm the heat flux and temperature distribution. Also, the cooling performance was verified. In the current design, using the periscope system, we can see flame shapes, control of the nozzle, and stability of the exhaust flow visually.

This research was designed to investigate the formations of hazardous air pollutants in the MSWs pyrolysis-gasification-melting process. In this survey, PCDDs/PCDFs (polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and polychlorinated dibenzofuran) were investigated in the two facilities (A and B facilities). In A facility, the PCDDs/DFs concentrations were 0.88, 2.29, 0.16 ng I-TEQ/$m^3$ respectively on the secondary incinerator, boiler and stack. In B facility, the PCDDs/PCDFs concentrations were 0.22, 0.05 ng I-TEQ/$m^3$ respectively on the pyrolysis-gasification-melting furnace and stack. The concentrations of PCDDs/PCDFs increased due to resynthesis during cooling process in the both facilities. High concentrations of PCDDs/PCDFs isomers were founded as 2, 3, 4, 7, 8-PeCDF, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8-HxCDF and 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8-HxCDF orderly in A facility, and 2, 3, 4, 7, 8-PeCDF, 1, 2, 3, 7, 8-PeCDD and 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8-HxCDF orderly in B facility.

In this study, cooling characteristics of combustion gas were investigated by injecting liquid nitrogen into liquid rocket combustion chamber. A injection ring of liquid nitrogen was installed between a combustion chamber and a mixing chamber which was designed for mixing of combustion gas and nitrogen. At first, a ignition test of liquid rocket engine was conducted to verify a stable combustion process and 10 second combustion tests were successfully conducted. The results showed that combustion gas of LRE could be cooled by using liquid nitrogen.
