The spacer grid is one of the main structural components in the fuel assembly, which supports the fuel rods, guides cooling water, and protects the system from an external impact load, such as earthquakes. Therefore, the mechanical and structural properties of the spacer grids must be extensively examined while designing them. In this paper, a numerical method for predicting the buckling strength of spacer grids is presented. Numerical analyses on the buckling behavior of the spacer grids are performed for a various array of sizes of the grids considering that the spacer grid is an assembled structure with thin-walled plates and imposing proper boundary conditions by nonlinear dynamic finite element method using ABAQUS/Explicit. Buckling tests on several numbers of specimens of the spacer grid were also carried out in order to compare the results between the test and the simulation result. The drop test is accomplished by dropping a carriage on the specimen at a pre-determined position. From this test, the specimens are buckled only at the uppermost and the lowermost layer among the multi-cells, which is similar to the local buckling at the weakest point of the grid structure. The simulated results also similarly predicted the local buckling phenomena and were found to give good correspondence with the experimental values for the thin-walled grid structures.

Performance of an air-cooled plate heat exchanger (PHE) was evaluated in this study. The PHE was manufactured in two types of single-wave and double-wave plates in parallel assembly. The heat exchanger aims to substitute open-loop cooling towers with closed-loop water circulation, which guarantees cleanliness and compactness. In this study, prototype single-wave and double-wave PHEs were designed and tested in a laboratory scale experiments. From the tests, the double-wave PHE shows approximately 50% enhanced heat transfer performance compared to the single-wave PHE. However, the double-wave PHE costs 30% additional pressure drop. For the commercialization, a wide channel design for air flow would be essential for performance and reliability.

This paper presents conceptual design and 3-D electromagnetic analysis of IMVA transformer with BSCCO-2223 High Tc Superconducting (HTS) tapes. The rated voltages of each sides of the transformer are 22.9 kV and 6.6 kV, and double pancake windings were adopted. High voltage and Low voltage sides were composed of several double pancake windings. Four HTS tapes were wound in parallel for the windings of low voltage side and were transposed in order to distribute the currents equally in each conductor The transformer core was designed as a shell type core made of laminated silicon steel plates and the core is separated with the windings by a cryostat with Fiberglass Reinforced Plastics(FRP). A sub-cooling system using L$N_2$ were designed to maintain the coolant temperature 65K. Finally perpendicular components of magnetic field applied to tapes were calculated 0.247 in the rated operation using 3-D analysis. A real 1MVA HTS transformer will be manufactured in near future based on the design parameters presented in this paper.

The design concept of a Small High-flux Multipurpose LBE(Lead Bismuth Eutectic) cooled Fast Reactor (SHMLFR) was proposed in the paper. The primary cooling system of the reactor is forced circulation, and the fuel element form is arc-plate loaded high enrichment MOX fuel. The core is cylindrical with a flux trap set in the center of the core, which can be used as an irradiation channel. According to the requirements of the core physical design, a series of physical design criteria and constraints were given, and the steady and transient parameters of the reactor were calculated and analyzed. Regarding the thermal and hydraulic phenomena of the reactor, a simplified model was used to conduct a preliminary analysis of the fuel plates at special positions, and the temperature field distribution of the fuel plate with the highest power density under different coolant flow rates was simulated. The results show that the various parameters of SHMLFR meet the requirements and design criteria of the physical design of the core and the thermal design of the reactor. This implies that the conceptual design of SHMLFR is feasible.

A solid tungsten target was used at the China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) with 100 kW proton beam power. To improve the lifetime, hot isostatic pressing (HIP) process was selected to bond tantalum cladding with tungsten plates. Radioactive isotope ¹⁸²Ta, an activation product of tantalum, was found in the cooling water after a period of operation, however, no radioactive isotopes of ¹⁸⁷W was found, which shows the tantalum layer remained mostly intact. The CSNS Target-1 had been operating safely for three years and was replaced by Target-2 in August 2020.

본 논문은 조선해양 구조물 주판의 맞대기용접 수축에 대한 특성을 연구하였다. 주판의 맞대기 용접은 입 열과 냉각과정에서 수축 변형이 일어나 최종 완성된 모재의 치수와 설계 치수가 다르게 된다. 이는 선박의 블록 생산 품질 불량으로서 교정 작업이 필요하며 생산성 향상의 저해요인이다. 이에 대형 구조물 주판의 맞대기용접 수축 변형에 관한 실험을 통하여 I, Y, V 형상의 용접잔류응력 수축 변형 데이터를 확보하고 두께 11 t ~ 21.5 t 범위에서는 1 ~ 2 mm의 한정된 범위의 수축 량이 균일하게 나타나는 특징과 용접부의 열전달 영향이 Seam Line 한쪽을 기준으로 최대 약 1000 mm 이내에 국한되어 모재의 자중이 수축 량에 미치는 영향은 크지 않았고 또한 수축 변형을 최소화하기 위해 설계단계에서 Groove 형상에 따라 수축마진을 다르게 적용해야 함을 알 수 있었다.

냉각성, 난연성, 그리고 경제성의 면에서 우수한 윤활특성을 갖고 있는 이멀션윤활제를 사용하여 로울러와 프레이트간의 선접촉 및 광간섭계의 실험장치를 통하여 탄성유체윤활 영역에서의 윤활기구 및 분산립자의 거동기구를 명확히 하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 스퀴즈 유막내의 유동은 윤활간극이 비교적 넓은 경우와 좁은 경우로 대별하여 전자의 경우에는, 입자분포 및 속도분포의 영향이 크게 나타나며, 후자의 경우는 이멀션입자가 간극내에 정지하여 유막두께의 감소와 더불어 변형되어 간다. 2. 스퀴즈 유막내의 O/W, W/O 각 이멀션의 유동은 간극이 클 경우, 입경에 의한 속도차가 역으로 나타나고, 작은 경우에는 잔류액적의 분포가 서로 다르며 그밖에 O/W 형은 W/O 형에 비하여 분산입자가 쉽게 변형하는 것을 알 수 있다. 3. EHL영역입구부에서는 입자의 유동속도가 극히 적은 정체영역이 존재하며, 그 부근에서의 입자의 거동은 입경에 따라서 다르다. 4. 2색광에 의한 광간섭선의 관찰에 의하여 탄성유체윤활 영역내를 통과하는 이멀션유를 확인함과 동시에 EHL영역입구부에서의 분열거동이 관찰되었다.

Serpentinite of the Yesan-Gongju-Cheongyang area has been formed by serpentinization of ultramafic rocks. The ultramafic rock might be composed mainly of oilvine with minor pyroxene and amphibole. Olivine has a considerably restricted chemical compositional ranging from Fo90 to Fo93. Fresh serpentinite containing large amount of oilvine is usually massive in occurrence and dark green to black in color. Serpentine minerals occur not only as major mineral of serpentinite, but also as remnants in the talc ore which was formed from serpentinite. XRD study indicates that antigorie is the most abundant serpentine mineral of the serpentinite. Serpentinite consisting of antigorite usually shows non-pseudomorphic texture, whereas that consisting of lizardite shows pseudomorphic texture. Antigorite is found along the margins or fractures of olivine grains resulting in the formation of network of magnetite which was formed at the time of serpentinization. Lizardite, subordinate constituent mineral of serpentinite, frequently shows pseudomorphic mesh-texture after olivine. The chemical differences between antigorite and lizardite/chrysotile are small, so both minerals are not easily discernible with the electron microprobe. Antigorite occuers as elongate blades, flakes, or plates forming interpenetrating texture to obliterate previous textures. SEM study also shows that most serpentine minerals occur in platy or tabular form rather than in asbestiform. Fractures formed after main serpentinization are observed within the pseudomorphic central olivine grain. Careful observation of the serpentine pseudomorphs gives a great deal of data on the pre-serpentinization nature of the serpentine pseudomorphs gives a great deal of data on the pre-serpentinization nature of the ultramafic rocks. It is inferred that the serpentinization took place after the emplacement of ultramafic body into the relatively wet environment ceased and the cooling intrusive body crossed into the stability field of serpentine. It is inferred that the final pervasive serpentinization took place over a long time, by hydrothermal water supplied through the fracture system produced during emplacement of ultramafic rock.
