In a pressurized water reactor (PWR), control rod assembly (CRA) falls into the guide tubes of a fuel assembly due to gravity for scram. Various theoretical approaches and numerical analyses have been performed because its shape is simple and its design was completely developed several decades ago. A control rod assembly for a sodium-cooled faster reactor (SFR) which is geometrically more complicated is being actively developed in Korea nowadays. Drop time and impact velocity of a CRA are important parameters with respect to reactivity insertion time and the mechanical robustness of a CRA and a guide duct. In this paper, computational method considering simultaneously the equation of motion for rigid body and the Navier-Stokes equations for fluid is suggested and verified by comparison with theoretical analysis results. Through this valuable CFD analysis method, drop time and impact velocity of initially designed SFR CRA are evaluated before performing scram tests with it.

This study investigates output voltage variation of a voltage disturbance generator in case of sag and swell modes. The generator uses series transformers and silicon-controlled rectifier thyristors to provide voltage disturbance; consequently, voltage drop at the output terminal is inevitable. On the basis of the analysis, voltage drop increases as the power factor decreases in lagging. Voltage drop is 3.7 [%] at a power factor (lagging) of 0.8. Simulation and experimental results show the validity of the analysis.

Numerical analysis was carried out to examine the heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics of plate heat exchangers for absorption application using Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) technique. A commercial CFD software package, FLUENT was used to predict the characteristics of heat transfer, pressure drop and flow distribution within plate heat exchangers. In this paper, a welded plate heat exchanger with the plate of chevron embossing type was numerically analyzed by controlling mass flow rate, solution concentration, and inlet temperatures. The working fluid is $H_2O$/LiBr solution with the LiBr concentration of 50-60% in mass. The numerical simulation shows reasonably good agreement with the experimental results. Also, the numerical results show that plate of the chevron shape gives better results than plate of the elliptical shape from the view points of heat transfer and pressure drop. These results provide a guideline to apply the welded PHE for the solution heat exchanger of absorption systems.

Synchronous generators and induction generators are mainly used in hydroelectric power generation. Synchronous generator is mainly applied to large hydroelectric plants but induction generator is applied to the small hydro power plants. Stability of induction generator is slightly less than the synchronous generator. However, induction generator has many advantages rather than a synchronous generator in terms of price and maintenance. So Induction generator is used primarily in small hydroelectric power station less than 1,000kW recently. Squirrel cage induction generator generates a high inrush current at the grid-connection. This high inrush current causes a voltage drop on the grid. In order to reduce the voltage drop and to analyze the power flow, the analysis for operating characteristics of the induction generator should be reviewed in advance. In this study, we analyzed the voltage drop and power flow analysis when a 1500kW induction generator is connected to the grid. The voltage drop is slightly higher than the acceptable range of distributed power supply voltage and the power flow of the generator is performed well.

본 연구에서는 유한요소해석으로 냉장고 낙하충격에 대한 하힌지의 변형거동을 분석했다. 우선 하힌지 및 하부포장재 동적물성 확보를 위해 각각 속도 별 굽힘시험과 압축시험을 수행했다. 이어 시험에서 얻은 하중-변위곡선과 유사한 거동을 나타내는 하힌지 및 하부 포장재의 유동응력식을 역공학으로 얻었다. 확보한 물성데이터를 이용해 LS-DYNA로 낙하해석을 수행해, 낙하시 냉장고 자체 및 하힌지 변형거동을 분석했다. 최종적으로 3D 측정으로 분석한 실 냉장고 낙하시험으로, 낙하해석 모델의 유효성을 검증했다. 본 연구에서 제시한 해석모델은 추후 하힌지 및 포장재의 내 충격설계 등에 효과적으로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

The supply voltage has been drop rapidly and the total length of the wire increased exponentially in the nanometer SoC design environment. The ideal supply voltage was dropped sharply by the resistance and parasitic devices which stayed on the kilometers-long wire length. Even worse, it could severely affect the functional behavior of the block of the design. To analyze the effects of the long wire of the SoC while maintaining the accuracy, the modeling of the current and the RC conversion of the parasitic techniques are researched and applied. By these modeling and conversion, the multi-million gates HDTV Chipset can be analyzed within a day. The benchmark analysis of the HDTV SoC showed the superiority to the conventional methods in performance and accuracy.

A simple preliminary analysis is often useful to check a validity of design alternatives before the detailed analysis phase in the viewpoint of efficiency. This paper describes a preliminary analysis procedure for the selection among basket design candidates for the spent fuel shipping cask of Korean standard nuclear power plant. As the cask should maintain the structural integrity in hypothetical accident condition, the case of 9 m drop is significantly considered as the worst scenario among the accident conditions in structural design viewpoint in this paper. As basket design options, totally four different types are considered and analyzed in the point of structural integrity at drop impact and weldability for fabrication. As a result, an insertion round plate type with densely spaced supports turns out to be the best in both of the viewpoints, though the weld plate type shows a bit more design margin.

Dynamics of molten drop detachment in the Gas Metal Arc (GMA) welding is investigated using the Volume of Fluid(VOF) method. The electromagnetic effects are included in the formulation of the VOF method which has been widely used to analyze the dynamics of the fluid having a free surface. The molten drop geometry, pressure and velocity profiles within the drop are calculated numerically in the cases of globular and spray transfer modes. It appears that the velocity and current distribution affect metal detachment. It is found that the taper is formed and maintained during the spray transfer by the electromagnetic force. Predicted results show reasonably good agreement with the available experimental data which validates the application of the VOF method to metal transfer analysis.

A three dimensional numerical analysis of the corrugated louver fin for a vehicle heat exchanger was performed. The heat transfer rate and the air pressure drop of the corrugated louver fins for a slim heater were compared with experimental results at the same operating conditions. As for the slim heater fin, we found an optimum fin pitch at certain operating conditions. As the fin pitch increased, the air pressure drop decreased. The vertical or flat top fin was superior to the common declined fin in the aspect of heat transfer performance. As the louver length increased, both the heat transfer rate and the air pressure drop increased.
