Recently KAERI has developed the severe accident management guidance to establish Korea standard severe accident management system. On the other hand the PC-based severe accident training simulator SATS has been developed, and the MELCOR code is used as the simulation engine. SATS graphically displays and simulates the severe accidents with interactive user commands. The control capability of SATS could make a severe accident training course more interesting and effective. In this paper the development and functions of the electrical hypertext guidance module HyperKAMG and the SATS-HyperKAMG linkage system for the severe accident management are described.

In this paper, range measurement performance of LRF (Laser Range Finder) module and image contrast of color CCD camera are evaluated under the aerosol (high temperature steam) environments, which are simulated severe accident conditions of the LWR (Light-Water-Reactor) nuclear power plant. Data of LRF and color CCD camera are key informations, which are needed in the implementation of SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) function for emergency response robot system to cope with urgently accidents of the nuclear power plant.

We prepared hybrids between layered double hydroxide (LDH) and natural plant extract such as Peaonia suffruticosa Andrews (PS) and Peaonia Japonica (PJ) which was confirmed anti-bacterial activity through paper disc diffusion assay. According to X-ray diffractometer, scanning electron microscope, zeta-potential measurement and quantification of extract loading amount in hybrids, we confirmed that similar amount of PS and PJ loaded on inter-particle pore of LDH with partial adsorption on surface of LDH through reconstruction process. We also evaluated the bacterial colony forming inhibition of PS extract, PJ extract, PS-LDH and PJ-LDH hybrids against Escherichia coli as gram negative bacterium and Bacillus subtilis as gram positive bacterium, suggesting that both hybrids have enhanced anti-bacterial activity compared with extract itself.

This paper describes the optimal operation scheduling of total cogeneration system which is interconnected with combined heat power plant of utility and district heat devices. The numerical modeling about the cogeneration system and the auxiliary thermal energy devices are established and simulation is carried out by LINDO program in order to minimize the operation cost under the national viewpoint. The results reveal that the established numerical modeling and the operation strategy can be effectively applied to the total cogeneration systems to reduce the energy cost.

This paper is concerned with estimating the mass of a loose part in the steam generator of a nuclear power plant. Although there is the basic principle known as “Hertz Theory”for estimating mass and energy of a spherical part impacted on an infinite flat plate, the theory is not directly applicable because real plants do not comply with the underlying ideal assumptions. (Say, the steam generator is of a cylindrical and hemisphere shape.) In this work, a practical method is developed based on the basic theory and considering amplitude and energy attenuation effects. Actually, the impact waves propagating along the plate to the sensor locations become significantly different in shape and frequency spectrum from the original waveform due to the plate and surrounding conditions, distance attenuation and damping loss. To show the validity of the present mass estimation algorithm, it has been applied to the mock-up impact test data and also to real plant data. The results show better performance comparing to the conventional Hertz schemes.

Photovoltaic energy is regarded as the key solution to the instability of energy supply and environmental pollution, and it is spreading from the developed countries to world wide. This paper looks into guide lines of KESCO (Korea electrical Safety Corporation) on Photovoltaic system and analyzed case of inconsistencies of pre-service inspection. Through these analyses it will be possible to prevent possible accidents in the process of installing Photovoltaic system and thus ensure electrical safety of Photovoltaic system.

Drying process in the cylindrical thin film layer of sludge with the thickness less than a few millimeters has been investigated. Thin film drying is specially designed and used to dry the viscous materials like sewage sludge. The thin film layer of sludge is dried on the metallic cylindrical surface through which thermal energy is supplied to the layer during drying. The wall temperature is assumed to be constant during drying in the present study for the simplification. In order to solve the equations, the mass transfer rate on the drying surface should be determined. The mass flux of evaporated water vapor on the surface is estimated with the formulation given in the literature. The effect of some physical parameters on drying has been examined to figure out the drying characteristics of the sludge layer.

The work described in this paper deals with the proposed application of an Artificial Neural Network Model for the Advanced Pressurized Water Reactor APR-1400 transient identification. The approach adopted for testing the network take note of the expectation which should be fulfilled by a network for real-time application, like testing with data in on-line mode and use of actual or real-life patterns for training. The recall test performed demonstrates that use of neural network for transient identification is indeed an attractive preposition.

This study proves successes of Energy Service Company (ESCO) business by heat pump performance test. The purpose of ESCO business is recover investment costs through saving energy from installation of energy reduction facility. The most important technology assessment items are heat recovery and generator output. Experimental result shows that increase quality of heat recovery (11.52Gcal/h), while decrease generator output (0.234kw). In its final analysis, the ESCO business is successful according to our data.

Restriction orifices in the feed and bleed circuit of nuclear power plant are designed using computer program capable of handling multiple hole cascade orifice assembly. Single hole stages of orifice assembly are alternated with multihole stages where necessary. The distance between stages is such that it allows full pressure recovery. The minimum static pressure is higher than vapor pressure at the operating temperature so that cavitation does not occur. Piping sizes are reviewed and increased if necessary to improve rigidity.
