As an early stage in the development of a water calorimeter, this study established a computer simulation methodology for analyzing the thermal behavior of a water calorimeter based on radiation transport and energy deposition. As a result, this study developed a method wherein the energy deposition distribution, which is obtained by applying Monte Carlo methods in water calorimeters, is directly used as a heat source for the thermal analysis model. Based on the proposed method, heat transfer in a water vessel and the effect of thermistor self-heating were analyzed. Through an analysis of the water velocities with and without a water vessel, it was found that a water vessel can serve as a convection barrier. Furthermore, it was confirmed that when considering thermistor self-heating, the water temperature change at the thermistor location is 0.219 mK higher compared to that when the thermistor was not considered. Therefore, thermistor self-heating must be considered to analyze the thermal behavior of a water calorimeter more accurately.

국내에서는 현재 샌드위치패널의 화재안전성능 평가를 위하여 KS F 2271(건축물의 내장재료 및 구조의 난연성 시험방법)을 사용하고 있다. 국내와 동일한 시험방법을 사용하고 있던 일본에서는 2000년 건축기준법 개정시 ISO 5660-1 시험방법을 내장재의 연소성능시험으로 채택하였다. 그에 따라 국내에서도 KS F 2271 시험방법을 보완하는 건축법 개정고시(안)을 예고하였고, 그 내용은 ISO 5660-1(Cone Calorimeter Method) 시험방법을 도입하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 샌드위치패널의 연소특성을 ISO 5660-1 콘칼로리미터 시험방법을 사용하여 검토하였다. 국내에서 일반적으로 사용되는 4종의 샌드위치패널과 4종의 심재(단열재)의 착화시간, 최대열방출율, 총 열방출량을 검토하였으며, 시험체별 시험결과를 분석하였다. 최종적으로 일본과 NBC개정안에서 제시하는 분류기준에 시험결과를 적용하였다.

Chemical behaviors of each surface material for interior facilities affect to fire initiation and growth in general fire situation. These chemical behaviors were characterized by thermal properties (Heat release rate, Pyrolysis rate, specific heat, etc) which could be derived from experimental test. Especially, Heat release rate which indicates aspect of fire size is one of the most important property to asses fire hazard and protection needs. The cone calorimeter test (ISO 5660) has recently assumed to a dominant role in bench scale fire testing to obtain the Heat release rate of materials. This value could be calculated by the 'Oxygen Consumption Method' under various producing irradiances to each surface of materials. In this study, Process of the cone calorimeter test was simulated by Pyrolysis model of FDS (Fire Dynamics Simulator by NIST) base on the ISO 5660 international standard. Then, we could estimate the simulation method of FDS in case of single materials through the comparative study with test results.

This paper introduces a simple core loss calculation method for output filter inductor in pulse width modulation (PWM) DC-AC inverter. Amorphous C-core (AMCC-320) is used to analyze the core loss. In order to measure core loss of the output filter inductor and validate the proposed method, a single-phase half-bridge inverter and a calorimeter are used. By changing switching frequency and modulation index (MI) of the inverter, core loss of the AMCC-320 is measured with the lab-made calorimeter and the results are compared with calculated core loss. The proposed method can be easily extended to other core loss calculation of various converters.

Kinds of Sound & Thermal Insulator are being used for materials of railroad vehicles as a barrier of beat and noise. Glass Wool, PE foam, PP foam are such kinds of materials. In case of fire, it shows various combustion properties. In this study, we compared the Smoke Density of the Rubber Foam Insulator by test between Cone-Calorimeter and Smoke Density-Chamber. The results showed that the Rubber Foam Insulator had an important role in the insulator thickness and the test method, We forecast the smoke density by test between Cone-Calorimeter and Smoke Density-Chamber.

The rate of heat release is probably the single most important measure of fire hazard. Several tech-niques were developed for the measurement of rate of heat release, but were not suitable for fire test-ing purpose. Recently the application of oxygen consumption principle made it possible to development of well-characterized heat release rate measurement apparatus, the furniture calorimeter for large-scale fire tests and the cone calorimeter for bench-scale fire tests. The cone calorimeter can be used to determine the ignitability as well as heat release rate and smoke development, mass loss rate, combustion gas production etc. from burning materials. Thus, test method using cone calorimeter, an internationally recognized and accepted for the evalua-tion of fire properties, is a very promising tool for combustion study on various kind of materials and products.

Calorific value of mixed gas, like liquefied natural gas (LNG), is strongly depends on its compositions which are affected by the mining place and producing time. The variation in calorific value have an direct influence on the combustion characteristics and performances of boiler, burner, vehicle, power plants etc. Thus, developing experimental method to measure exact calorific value is becoming an issue in the related industrial fields. Flame calorimeter is developed to get calorific value at the dynamic equilibrium state using electric substitution method. Refrigerant-11 carries heat from combustor and/or heater to the Peltier elements which pumped it out to the cooling water. It is found out that error in the measured calorific value of methane is 2.86% compared with the theoretical one. Developed design technique and the experimental data will be applied to design the national standard gas calorific value measuring apparatus.

본 연구에서는 대형 콘 칼로리미터(large scale cone calorimeter, LSC)를 사용하여 헵탄 풀 화재(pool fire) 실험에서 화원의 직경 변화에 따른 발열량(HRR) 측정 결과를 정량적으로 분석하였다. 발열량에 중요한 영향을 미치는 연소율(burning rate)은 A. Hamins의 연구 자료에서 제시한 모델링 곡선과 비교하여 정확성을 검증하였으며, 산소 소모법에 의한 연소효율(combustion efficiency)은 이론발열량에 비해서 91% 정도로 J. Gore이 제시한 헵탄의 연소효율 92%와 유사한 것을 확인하였다. 엔탈피소모법에 의한 열손실은 전체 발열량의 54% 정도로 측정부에서 대류 발열량으로 측정되었으며, 본 연구 결과는 화재실험에서 발열량 측정값의 신뢰성 분석(reliability analysis)을 위한 기초 연구 자료로 활용하는데 유용한 정보가 될 것으로 사료된다.

acrylic polyol로 개질한 polyester형 polyurethane foam을 quasi prepolymer법으로 제조하였다. 열적 및 동적 기계적 성질은 thermal gravimetric analysis 및 dynamic mechanical analysis에 의하여 분석하였다. 또한 유리전이온도는 differential scanning calorimeter로 측정하였다. Acrylic polyol 함량이 증가함에 따라 TGA에 의해 측정한 열적 안정성은 약간 감소하였다. 그리고 acrylic polyol 함량이 증가함에 따라 저장 탄성률은 증가한 반면에 tan delta 값은 감소하였다.

터널 화재와 관련된 축소모형실험연구는 기본적인 데이터는 제공할 수 있지만, 축소모형과 실물화재간의 정확한 이론적 상사관계가 정립되어 있지 않기 때문에 실물화재에 대한 직접적인 분석을 하기에는 어려움이 따른다. 이에 산소소모율법을 적용하여 열방출율과 같은 물리량의 측정이 가능한 실물화재실험장치인 대형칼로리미터를 개발하였다. 이를 이용하여 차량의 화재시 열방출율을 측정하기 위한 실물실험을 실시하였으며, 그 결과 차량의 열방출율은 $2.3{\sim}3.4\;MW$로 측정되었다. 이는 PIARC에서 권고하는 차량의 열방출율과 유사한 범위로서 개발된 실물화재평가장치의 신뢰성을 확인할 수 있음은 물론이고 향후 관련 연구에 매우 유용하게 이용될 수 있을 것이다.
