In this study, the degree of performance changes between the guaranteed performance and the performance after a certain operating start time is calculated by using the performance test of gas turbine CHP. The reason of the performance degradation will then be analysed. For some results of the CHP plant performance tests the comprehensive electric power output was 8,380 kW lower than the guaranteed performance, and the gas turbine's output was reduced to about 250 kW whenever ambient temperatures rose to $1^{\circ}C$. Also, causes of the performance degradation of gas turbines are ambient temperature rise, temperature aging and air compressor's efficiency drop.

The control rod assemblies do freely fall into the reactor core by the gravity from the control rod drive mechanism. In order to achieve a rapid shutdown and control the reactor power, it is required to insert control rod assemblies as soon as possible. In this paper, we evaluated the drop time and flow characteristics caused around guide tube for SMART(System-integrated modular advanced reactor) control rod assembly. Numerical analyses are carried out with FLUENT program of computational fluid dynamics. This study results show that the drop time of the control rod assembly in the operating condition of SMART is more 20 percent rapidly than the drop time of the room temperature and ambient atmosphere condition.

Volatile organic compound (VOC) has been well-known to Korea since the end of 1990's however, it has not been well documented until now. In this study, present ambient VOC levels, VOC emission sources, and VOC control technologies were reviewed and discussed. In addition, VOC management strategies to cut down ozone concentrations were suggested based on the present VOC database. For anthropogenic VOC reduction, VOC emitted from painting processes and automobiles should be controlled in the first place in large cities such as Seoul, Daegu, and Incheon. For natural VOC management, low emission trees need to be planted in those cities. It is also very significant to keep updating present and future VOC emission inventories for efficient VOC control strategies. As a conclusion, more systematic VOC control road-map based on BACT (best available control technology) needs to be made up. and more economical and efficient VOC control techniques have to be developed under strong national support in order to lower toxic VOC and photochemical oxidant levels.

Crop growth and production cost are greatly influenced by management of environmental factors such as ambient temperature, humidity, and $CO_2$, especially in protected horticulture. Opening and closing of greenhouses is the most important operation for control of these ambient environmental factors, and precise and stable operation requires high performance window motors. In this study, a 400 W precise window motor was constructed, and its performance was evaluated for plastic and glass greenhouses. First, the motor was designed and fabricated by benchmarking of an advanced foreign product. Then, the performance was evaluated through vibration, PCB (Process Control Block), and load tests. Vibration tests resulted in averaged vibration displacement and velocity of the developed motor of 0.002 mm and 0.2267m/s, which were statistically significantly different from those of the target motor. Average vibration acceleration ($0.26m/s^2$) of the developed motor was also significantly different from that ($0.51m/s^2$) of the target motor. PCB tests showed 2 - 4 mm deviation from the target values, and confirmed the operating status and precision of the control. Load tests with a 300 kg load also showed acceptable operating status and durability. Current values were $1.31{\pm}0.06A$ and RPMs were in the range of 2.9 - 3.0. Considering the above results, the developed window motor would be competitive to the target foreign product.

The objectives of this study were to measure ambient total gaseous mercury (TGM) concentrations in Seoul, to analyze the characteristics of TGM concentration, and to identify of possible source areas for TGM using back-trajectory based hybrid receptor models like PSCF (Potential Source Contribution Function) and RTWC (Residence Time Weighted Concentration). Ambient TGM concentrations were measured at the roof of Graduate School of Public Health building in Seoul for a period of January to October 2004. Average TGM concentration was $3.43{\pm}1.17\;ng/m^3$. TGM had no notable pattern according to season and meteorological phenomena such as rainfall, Asian dust, relative humidity and so on. Hybrid receptor models incorporating backward trajectories including potential source contribution function (PSCF) and residence time weighted concentration (RTWC) were performed to identify source areas of TGM. Before hybrid receptor models were applied for TGM, we analysed sensitivities of starting height for HYSPLIT model and critical value for PSCF. According to result of sensitivity analysis, trajectories were calculated an arrival height of 1000 m was used at the receptor location and PSCF was applied using average concentration as criterion value for TGM. Using PSCF and RTWC, central and eastern Chinese industrial areas and the west coast of Korea were determined as important source areas. Statistical analysis between TGM and GEIA grided emission bolsters the evidence that these models could be effective tools to identify possible source area and source contribution.

Regional air quality regulation is a system that allows the Minister of Environment to designate the local area as air quality control region where the concentrations of air pollutants are exceeding the environmental standards, and the local governments that administrate the regulated area have to develop and practise a plan for reducing the air pollutants. From the data observed yearly by the monitoring stations in 8 provincial cities with more than 0.5 million people was judged the compliance with air quality standards in each municipality for the period of 2003 to 2013. As the result of investigation on air pollutants concentrations of each city, it was found that there was no station that exceeds the ambient air quality standards of CO, $SO_2$ and 24-hour $NO_2$. But all municipalities exceeded the standards of 8-hour $O_3$, annual and 24-hour $PM_{10}$, and therefore 8 municipalities can be designated to be under the local air regulation. For the annual $NO_2$ were the monitoring sites necessary requirements for designation of the air quality regulation region in Cheongju, Cheonan, Daejeon and Gwangju area. Incase of 1-hour $O_3$, some of stations in Pohang, Cheongju, Cheonan and Changwon area were over the designation standards for the air quality control region.

Based on classical viscoelastic damper, a brand-new damper is designed by the change of simple construction to implement vibration control for both translational vibration and rotational vibration simultaneously. Theoretic analysis has been carried out on the restoring force model and the control parameters. Two improved models are presented to obtain high simulation precision. The influence of the size, shape of the viscoelastic material, the ambient temperature and the response frequency on the vibration control effect is analyzed. The numerical results show that the new type viscoelastic damper is capable of mitigating the multi-dimensional seismic response of offshore platform and the response control effect has complicated relations with aforementioned related factors.

오리엔탈 나리 '시베리아'의 건식저장 기간에 따른 절화 보존 시 수분함량 변화와 절화수명을 구명하고자 하였다. 본 실험에서 저장 기간에 따라 저온 저장($5^{\circ}C$)을 한 다음 절화수명에 관계된 수분 및 품질 변화와 개화 정도를 검토하여 '시베리아' 나리의 절화 수확 후 관리 기술에 관계된 기본적인 자료를 얻고자 하였다. '시베리아' 나리를 채화하여 저온에서 건식저장 기간에 따라 3일, 6일, 12일한 후 절화보존 동안에 생체중 변화, 수분균형, 개화정도 등을 조사하였으며 대조구로서 상온 건식저장과 비교하였다. 저온 건식저장 후에 '시베리아' 나리의 수분함량은 건식저장 기간에 영향을 받아 저장하는 기간이 짧을수록 높아져 저장 3일이 다른 처리구보다 높아지는 경향을 보였다. 꽃의 수분함량은 절화보존 시 지속적으로 증가하는데, 저장 기간이 짧을수록 수분이 높게 유지되었다. 생체중 변화는 건식저장 기간에 영향을 받아 저장 기간이 짧았던 것에서 생체중의 증가 정도가 컸으며 음(-)의 값에 이르는 기간이 늦어지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 절화보존 시 생체중 변화는 저온 건식저장 3일이 생체중 증가 정도가 완만하게 변하며 수분균형도 8일째에 음(-)의 값에 도달하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 저장 온도 차이에 따른 생체중 변화는 상온에서 저장한 절화가 저온저장보다 증감 정도가 더 빠른 것으로 나타났다. 개화정도는 '시베리아' 나리의 건식저장 기간이 길어질수록 개화시기가 빨라지며, 절화가 빨리 시들어 상품으로써 유지 기간이 짧아졌다. 개화상태를 비교해 보면 3일 저온 건식저장이 다른 처리보다 개화하는 속도가 늦었으나 절화수명은 다른 처리구보다 길게 나타났다. '시베리아' 나리의 저온 건식저장은 저장 기간이 짧을수록 저장 후 수분함량이 높고 수분 균형값이 음(-)에 늦게 도달하였으며 개화상태가 좋고 절화수명도 길어지는 것으로 나타났다. '시베리아' 나리는 건식저장을 통한 작물체내 수분 함량 감소가 절화보존 시 개화 특성에도 영향을 미쳐 저장기간이 길수록 절화수명이 감소하여 상품 가치를 떨어뜨렸다. '시베리아' 나리 절화를 소비자가 이용 시, 상품 가치 유지를 위해서는 기존 결과의 6일 동안 저온 건식저장도 절화수명을 단축시키므로 저장 기간을 최소화하는 것이 절화 품질 유지를 위해 바람직하다고 판단된다.

The load carrying capacity of a bridge needs to be properly assessed to operate the bridge safely and maintain it efficiently. For the evaluation of load carrying capacity considering the current state of a bridge, static and quasi-static loading tests with weight-controlled heavy trucks have been conventionally utilized. In these tests, the deflection (or strain) of the structural members loaded by the controlled vehicles are measured and analyzed. Using the measured data, deflection (or strain) correction factor and impact correction factor are calculated. These correction factors are used in the enhancement of the load carrying capacity of a bridge, reflecting the real state of a bridge. However, full or partial control of the traffic during the tests and difficulties during the installment of displacement transducers or strain gauges may cause not only inconvenience to the traffic but also the increase of the logistics cost and time. To overcome these difficulties, an alternative method is proposed using an excited response part of full measured ambient acceleration data by ordinary traffic on a bridge without traffic control. Based on the modal properties extracted from the ambient vibration data, the initial finite element (FE) model of a bridge can be updated to represent the current real state of a bridge. Using the updated FE model, the deflection of a bridge akin to the real value can be easily obtained without measuring the real deflection. Impact factors are obtained from pseudo-deflection, which is obtained by double-integration of the acceleration data with removal of the linear components on the acceleration data. For validation, a series of tests were carried out on a steel plategirder bridge of an expressway in Korea in four different seasons, and the evaluated load carrying capacities of the bridge by the proposed method are compared with the result obtained by the conventional load test method.

본 연구는 미래 기후변화 시나리오에 근거하여 예측되는 온도 상승조건에서 노지 월동채소인 극조생 양파 '싱싱볼'의 생육 및 구 비대에 미치는 영향을 확인하고자 온도구배터널에서 수행하였다. 처리구는 대조구인 대기온도(일평균 $9.8^{\circ}C$) 조건, 온도상승구인 대기온도 $+2^{\circ}C$(일평균 $12.0^{\circ}C$)와 대기온도 $+5^{\circ}C$(일평균 $14.3^{\circ}C$) 조건 등 3수준으로 설정하였다. 생육기 온도 상승에 따른 양파의 생육을 조사한 결과, 대조구인 대기온도 조건에 비해 대기온도 $+2^{\circ}C$ 고온조건에서 자라는 양파가 초장도 길었고, 엽초경도 두꺼워졌으며, 총엽면적, 지상부 생체중 및 지상부 건물중이 증가되었다. 양파의 구 특성을 조사한 결과, 구경이나 구중은 생육후기로 갈수록 커지는 경향을 보였고, 대조구에 비해 대기온도 $+2^{\circ}C$ 고온조건에서 구 크기가 더 커지는 경향을 보였다. 구 비대 개시점인 구 비대지수도 대기온도 $+2^{\circ}C$ 고온조건에서는 타 조건에 비해 가장 빠른 경향을 보였다. 이상의 결과로 보아 대기온도보다 $2^{\circ}C$ 상승하였을 때 극조생 양파의 생육이 원활히 진행되고 수량이 증가되고 품질도 유지되겠으나, 대기 온도보다 $5^{\circ}C$ 이상 고온조건에서는 수량이 감소될 것으로 예측된다.
