Flow patterns inside the riser section and the effects of the heater inlet-and exit-restrictions, liquid charging level and the heater inlet subcooling on the flow characteristics inside an open two-phase natural circulation loop were studied experimentally. Three basic circulation modes were observed ; periodic circulation (A)(flow oscillations with incubation(no boiling) period), continuous circulations(stable operation mode with no flow oscillations), and periodic circulation (B) (flow oscillations with continuous boiling). The circulation rate increases and then decreases with the increase of the heating rate and the maximum circulation rate appears with the continuous circulation mode. The decrease of the inlet-restriction or the increase of the exitrestriction destabilizes the system. When the liquid charging level or the inlet subcooling decreases, the continuous circulation mode starts at the lower heating rate and the system is stabilized.

The domestic innovative power reactor named iPOWER will employ the passive molten corium cooling system(PMCCS) to cool down and stabilize the core melt in the severe accident. The final design concept of the PMCCS is yet to be determined, but the in-vessel retention through external reactor vessel cooling has been also considered as a viable strategy to cope with the severe accident. In this study, the two-phase natural circulation flow established between the reactor vessel and the insulation was simulated using a thermal-hydraulic system code, MARS-KS. The flow path of cooling water was modeled with one-dimensional nodes, and the boundary condition of the heat load from the molten core was defined to estimate the naturally-driven flow rate. The evolution of major thermal-hydraulic parameters were also evaluated, including the temperature and the level of cooling water, the void fraction around the lower head of the reactor vessel, and the heat transfer mode on its external surface.

In this study, an effort has been made to analyze the subcooled boiling heat transfer in a natural circulation vertical evaporator. To verify the analysis, a small-scale model was made and tested. The friction correlation by Ueda, void fraction and quality correlation by Saha and Zuber along with the superposition heat transfer model by Rohsenow yielded a satisfactory agreement with the model test data. The analysis was extended to simulate a 1 ton/day concentration system. Comparison with the test results of 1 ton/day prototype revealed that the data were overpredicted by 13%. The capacity of the prototype was 1.2 ton/day with COP of 5.77.

Boilers, which are considered to be one of the basic equipment in industry, consume large potion of nation's petroleum and their demand is growing everyday. In recent, the technology improvement in production of high efficiency boilers and their effective utilization is needed for design of boiler which steam condition is the large capacity of high temperature and high pressure. It is necessary that boiler control system be studied for high efficiency, high reliability and smooth operation. The control of drum pressure and water level particularly becomes an important task for greater accuracy with the avail ability of boiler operation. To achieve this aim, dynamic analysis of a boiler is accomplished by choosing a boiler as a model. Transfer function thus obtained is made a comparison of measurement with reckoning to technical design data. The results of comparison makes it possible to verify thermodynamical analysis on the dynamic behavior of the overall system.

A Ventricular Assist Device(YAD) is used to support the injured natural heart So. when considering a control algorithm for YAD. it is important to reduce a natural heart's load to enhance its recovery condition. To reduce natural heart's load, a counterpulsation algorithm is used commonly. In this study, we developed a counterpulsation control algorithm for moving-actuator type VAD and tested its usefulness using in vitro MOCK circulatory system. To notice a natural heart's Pumping status, electrocardiogram(ECG) signal was used and as a result of test. the counterpulsation effect between YAD and a natural heart was occurred and Automatic Control Mode Transition was occurred properly.

In the present experimental study, the flow behavior in a semi-closed two-phase natural circulation loop was examined. Water was used as the working fluid. Heat flux, heater-inlet subcooling, and flow restrictions at the heater-inlet and at the expansion-tank-line were taken as the controlling parameters Six circulation modes were identified by changing heat flux and inlet subcooling conditions ; single-phase continuous circulation, periodic circulation (A), two-phase continuous circulation, and periodic circulations (B), (C), and (D). Among these, the single-phase and two-phase continuous-circulation modes exhibit no significant oscillations and are considered to be stable. Periodic circulation (A) is characterized by the large amplitude two-phase f10w oscillations with the temporal single-phase circulation between them, while periodic circulation (B) featured by the flow oscillations with continuous boiling inside the heater section. Periodic circulation (C) appears to be the manometric oscillation with continuous boiling. Periodic circulation (D) has the longer period than periodic circulation (B) and a substantial amount of liquid flow back and forth through the expansion-tank-line periodically ; this mode is considered the pressure drop oscillation. Parametric study shows that the increases of the inlet- and expansion-tank-line- restrictions and the decrease of inlet subcooling broaden the range of the stable two-phase(continuous circulation) mode.

수문순환과정의 시공간적 거동을 해석하고 이를 정량화 하는 것은 효율적인 수자원 관리 및 계획을 위해 반드시 선행되어야 하는 연구이다. 특히 토양수분은 물 에너지 순환에서 지표면과 대기 사이의 복잡한 관계를 이해하기 위한 중요한 수문인자로, 이를 정확하게 측정하기 위한 방법들이 다각도로 발전되어 왔다. 그 중 위성 데이터를 활용한 토양수분 산정은 미계측 지역의 토양수분을 지속적이고 광역적이게 관측할 수 있는 선진 기술로 각광받고 있다. 그러나 대부분의 위성 자료들이 가지고 있는 공간 해상도는 복잡한 지형 환경을 대상으로 한 지역의 원격 탐사로서는 국지적인 수문학적 현상들을 분석하는데 어려움을 가지고 있다. 특히 우리나라의 경우 국토의 70% 정도가 산지로 이루어져 있으며 경사도가 $5^{\circ}$ 이하의 평탄한 지역은 약 23%에 그치는 등 복잡한 식생 지형 환경을 가지고 있다. 따라서 인공위성의 해상도와 식생 투과도를 고려할 때 저 해상도의 위성 토양수분만으로는 우리나라와 같이 면적에 비해 복잡한 환경에 기반 한 수문학적 현상들을 충분히 분석하는데 한계점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 support vector machine (SVM) 기계학습을 활용하여 ASCAT과 AMSR2 위성 토양수분의 상세화를 수행하여 고해상도의 토양수분을 산정하였고, 이를 지점관측 자료와 비교해 상세화도 자료의 신뢰성을 평가하였다. 검증된 고해상도 토양수분 데이터는 향후 자연재해 분석에 있어 예측의 정확성을 높이고 수문순환 및 기후 모델링에 있어서 중요한 입력 인자로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

Classification of estuaries based on their multi-component and multidisciplinary processes is important for the systematic management of estuaries. In this study, an integrated GlS-based analysis system including high resolution aerial photographies and topographic maps was used to classify 463 estuaries based on estuarine circulation pattern, geomorphological feature, natural habitat distribution and characteristics of land use. These estuaries were divided into two basic types, open and closed. Two hundred and thirty five systems were open estuaries comprising of forty one mountainous type (OM), eighty sevcn sandpit type (OS) and one hundred seven funnel type (OF). Each type of open estuary was further classified into three types based on habitat distribution and land use characteristics resulting in total ninc types of open estuaries. Two hundred and twenty eight estuaries were closed systems comprising of one hundred and forty four blocked type (CB directly) and eighty four lake type (CL, indirectly). CB type estuary was further classified into three types based on habitat distribution and land use characteristics. This estuarine classification scheme can be applied to provide a framework for effective management strategies of individual estuaries to estimate the management priority and strategy.
