In this paper, environmental noise analysis was performed for large power plant and desalination plant. Ray tracing method was used to predict inside noise of turbine building. It is important to design the plant with the allowable noise level. To improve the accuracy, main noise sources were estimated based on the field data. As the results of analysis, it was concluded that noise levels slightly exceed the specified noise limit in turbine building inside. In order to reduce the noise level, adding sound-absorbing materials to inside wall of turbine building was suggested and verified with the confirmed analysis model.

In this paper, a three-dimensional numerical study on flow pattern in winter along connecting passageway of a composite building was conducted using a commercial CFD package. The incompressible Navier-Stokes equation coupled was solved by using SIMPLE algorithm in order to find steady solutions. It was shown that a upward flow is generated inside the building in winter due to buoyancy effect and that the air inside connecting passageway flows from the shorter building to the taller one regardless of the slope of the passageway. Further, it was found that the magnitude of air velocity inside connecting passageway increases as the uphill slope to the taller building increases and decreases as the downhill slope to the taller one increases, although the variation in the magnitude of fluid velocity is not substantial. Lastly, it was shown that the maximum air velocity inside connecting passageway is less than the allowable limit for all the cases considered in this study.

Recently, the common concern of nuclear power industry in the development of technology mitigating and preventing the aging of steam generator tubes prevails, because the trends of steam generator flaws at Uljin unit #1,2 and KSNP(Korea Standard Nuclear Power Plant) impose a burden on the operation of nuclear power plant. While the regulatory agency is demanding the establishment of the advanced general performance maintenance system, the steam generator management program adapting advanced technology is being developed which may comply with EPRI PWR SG Guidelines based on NEI 97-06 ‘ General Guidelines including all the maintenance aspects consist of the tube integrity assessment criteria, repair limit, allowable leakage level, water chemistry will be composed in order to obtain the approval of regulatory agency and be applied to Nuclear power plant early 2005. This presentation is to introduce maintenance state including SG tube degradation and main contents of advanced SG management program being developed, and futhermore update present and future plan, and estimate the alternation after the completion.

In the ball end-milling process of a 3-dimensional mold, it is important to select cutting conditions and tool path considering the geometrical shape of a workpiece to reduce machining time. In this study, experiments were performed to decide allowable feed rate not breaking stability of system for different geometrical shapes. It was found that downcut is more stable than upcutting in machining side wall and downward is preferable to upward in inclined part depending on the angle of the inclination and depth of cut.

Adaptive control technique for a milling process is developed and implemented in an NC milling machine retrofitted to enable the micro-computer control. The control algorithm has the objects to guarantee the optimal tool life which can give the predetemined allowable lower limit of surface roughness. The experimental results show 1) that the extended tool life equation has good reliability in normal tool wear conditions. 2) and that the proposed adaptive control technique, which determine the optimal cutting condition by basing on the tool life equation modified continually according to the tool wear measured in real time, performs well.

A research for application of LDSMC(Low Density Sheet Molding Compound) composite is in progress for lightening the weight. This paper has performed fatigue test and simulation of external panel for Korean commercial vehicle. Before the fatigue test, static test was carried out. From the test, the structural safety was investigated using Goodman diagram. After the static test performance, the fatigue test was conducted at a range of load frequency 5Hz, a stress ratio(R) of 0.05 and an endurance limit of $10^6$ to obtain the S-N curve. The S-N curve is applied to the fatigue analysis of the external panel assembly. The result of FEM analysis was in accord with the experimental result within 83% confidence. It showed that the process to set up the safety range of allowable error is required in process of the design and simulation verification.

The 84m discharge line of moisture separator reheater(MSR) in Kori-2 had been suffered by excessive vibration from the beginning of power generation. In 1993, a complementary measure was taken to reduce the vibration level by adding several supports in the MSR pipeline. However, the piping vibration was beyond the allowable limit and an appropriate countermeasure was required to prevent the fatigue failure of the pipeline from the abnormal vibration. In this study, the vibrational characteristics of MSR pipeline and the countermeasure for abnormal vibration was investigated. Among the several vibration reduction methods, piping layout change by smoothing the pipeline was applied to the MSR pipeline in Kori-2. Applying the countermeasure, the vibration level was found to dramatically reduce from 17cm/sec to l.0cm/sec at the full-power operation condition.

A passenger ship has some differences compared with a general commercial ship from the viewpoint of the structural arrangement. It is difficult to reinforce wide panels and local structures of a passenger ship because of its interior design when they have vibration problems. Moreover, the allowable vibratory limit for a passenger ship is much lower than that of a commercial ship. In this study, it is introduced that the procedure of the vibration analysis and the structural improvement for prevention of vibration with consideration of interior design for the Atrium stairway, one of the local structure installed in public space.

In the case of a vibration sensitive equipment, it require a vibration free environment to provide its proper function. Especially, lithography and inspection device, which have sub-nanometer class high accuracy and resolution, have come to necessity for producing more improved Giga Class semi conductor wafers. This high technology equipments require very strict environmental vibration criteria in proportion to the accuracy of the manufacturing. In this paper, the dynamic analysis and modal test were performed to evaluate the dynamic properties of the constructing clean room structure. Based on these results, a structural dynamic modification(SDM) were required to satisfiy the vibration allowable limit for pression machine. Therefore, in order to improve the dynamic stiffness of clean room structure, the VSD system which can control the force applied on structure, were adopted and its utility were proved from dynamic test results of the improved structure after a modification work.

The center pivot in the power car of KTX carries the traction force of the motor bogie to the carbody. The damage to the center pivot due to failure of swivel joint causes a serious hazard of the train. To prevent the hazard, information on the relative motion between bogie and carbody is necessary. In this paper, a method to measure the relative rotation of the center pivot is proposed and an actual test to verify the method and safety is conducted. The test results show that the rotation of the center pivot is within the allowable limit and the damage due to the relative motion doesn't take place.
