사용후핵연료을 건식처리하는 파이로프로세싱 중 전해정련 및 제련공정 후 발생되는 우라늄과 초우라늄 및 희토류 등의 염화물을 함유한 LiCl-KCl 공융염에는 특히 희토류 함량이 높기 때문에 유효자원으로 활용이 가능한 형태의 우라늄과 초우라늄의 분리/회수가 쉽지 않다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 본 연구에서는 $LiCl-KCl-UCl_3-NdCl_3$ 시스템에서 산화제($K_2CO_3$)를 이용하여 $UCl_3$를 산화물 형태로 전환한 후 전기화학적 방법을 이용하여 $NdCl_3$를 금속형태로 분리하는 실험을 실시하였다. 실험에 앞서, 이론적 평형계산을 수행하여 우라늄 염화물을 산화물로 전환하기 위한 실험조건을 결정하였다. 상기의 실험에서 LiCl-KCl 내 $UCl_3$는 첨가제의 주입량이 이론적 반응당량에 근접하였을 때 거의 대부분이 염내에서 염화물 형태로 존재하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 이후 액체금속음극을 이용하여 $NdCl_3$를 금속형태로 전착시켰으며, 전착실험 후 투명한 용융상의 LiCl-KCl 공융염과 갈색의 우라늄 산화침전물이 존재함이 확인되었다. 이러한 결과들을 통해 $LiCl-KCl-UCl_3-NdCl_3$ 시스템에서 우라늄 및 희토류를 각각 분리할 수 있는 방안을 수립할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was to observe characteristic properties through the polarization curves and SEM images from 4 different types of amalgam obtained by using the potentiostats (Princeton EG & G) & SEM (Jeol/35), and to investigate the degree of corrosion on the oxidation peak of the each phase of amalgam. After each amalgam alloy and Hg was triturated as the direction of the manufacturer by means of the mechanical amalgamator (Shofu Co.), the triturated mass was inserted into the cylindrical metal mold which was 12mm in diameter and 10.0mm in height and was condensed by using routine manner. The specimen was removed from the mold and stored at room temperature for about 24 hours. The standard surface preparation was routinely carried out. Anodic polarization measurement was employed to confirm the corrosion behaviour of the amalgams in a 0.9% saline solution (P.H: 6.8-7.0) at $37^{\circ}C$. The initial rest potential (corrosion potential) was determined after 30 minutes of immersion of specimen in electrolyte, and the potential scan was begun at the point of 100mV cathodic from the corrosion potential. The scan rate was 0.17mV/sec. in the study to observe the degree of corrosion of each phase. SEI and EPMA images on the determined oxidation peaks of each amalgam were observed. The results were as follows: 1. In the four anodic polarization curves, low copper amalgams have three oxidation peaks and high copper amalgams have two oxidation peaks, -270mV, +26mV and +179mV(SEC) in the low copper lathe cut, and -300mV, +39mV and +163mV(SEC) in the low copper spherical. -4mV and +154mV(SEC) in the Dispersalloy, and +17mV and +180mV(SEC) in the Tytin as high copper amalgams. 2. ${\gamma}_2$ phase in the low copper amalgam and ${\eta}$ phase in the high copper amalgam were the most corrodible phases and Ag-Cu eutectic in high copper amalgam was the most slowly corroded phase. 3. Low copper amalgam was more susceptible in corrosion than high copper amalgam.

The purpose of this study was to observe characteristic properties through the polarization curves and EMPA images from 4 different types of amalgam obtained by using the potentiostats (EG & G PARC) & EPMA (Jeol JSM-35), to investigate the degree of corrosion of each phase of amalgam on the oxidation peak, and to identify corrosion products from the corroded amalgam by use of X-ray diffractometer(Rigaku). After each amlgam alloy and Hg were triturated as the direction of the manufacturer by means of the mechanical amalgamator(Shofu), the triturated mass was inserted into the cylindrical metal mold which was 12mm in diameter and 10mm in height and was condensed by means of routine manner. The specimen was removed from the mold and stored at room temperature for about 7 days. The standard surface preparation was routinely carried out. Anodic polarization measurement was employed to compare the corrosion behaviours of the amalgams in 0.9% saline solution(pH6.8~7.0) and artificial saliva (pH6.8~7.0) at $37^{\circ}C$. The open circuit potential was determined after 30 minutes' immersion of specimen in electrolyte and the potential scan was begun at the potential of 100mV cathodic from the corrosion potential. The scan rate was 1mV/sec and the surface area of amalgam exposed to the solution was 0.64$cm^2$ for each specimen. All the potentials reported are with respect to a saturated calomel electrode (SCE). EPMA images on the determined oxidation peaks of each amalgam in artificial saliva were observed. X-ray diffraction patterns of each sample were recorded before and after polarization in artificial saliva (Aristaloy, Caulk Spherical, Dispersalloy and Tytin: at +770mV, +585mV, +8.10m V and +680m V respectively) by use of a recording diffractometer. Nickel filtered Cu $K_{{\alpha}_1}$ radiation was used and sample was scanned at $4^{\circ}(2{\theta})/min.$ from $25^{\circ}$ to $80^{\circ}$. The following results were obtained. 1. Oxidation peak potential in artificial saliva shifted to more anodic direction than that in saline solution. 2. The corrosion potential of high copper amalgam was more anodic than the potential of low copper amalgam. 3. The current density was lower in artificial saliva than in saline solution. 4. One of the corrosion products, AgCl was identified by X-ray diffraction analysis. 5. ${\gamma}_2$ phase was the most susceptible to corrosion and e phase was stable in low copper amalgam and ${\eta}$' phase and Ag-Cu eutectic were susceptible to corrosion in high copper amalgam.

난연 의류는 화염 및 고온 환경 속에서 착용자의 원활한 임무 수행을 돕고 추가적인 피해 확산을 방지한다. 그러나 기존 난연 의류의 높은 중량과 열 피로도는 개선이 필요하며, 친환경적인 방법으로 제작된 가볍고 편리한 난연 의류 개발이 요구되고 있다. 최근 인을 함유한 난연 물질 코팅으로 섬유에 난연성을 부여한 사례가 보고되고 있으나 이들은 국내외 방화복 및 난연 전투복 기준에 적합한 수준으로 발전될 필요성이 있다. 본 연구에서는 깊은 용융 용매로 기능성화된 산화 그래핀과 폴리인산암모늄을 동시에 섬유에 코팅하는 친환경적인 대량생산 공정을 제시한다. 코팅된 섬유는 열무게 분석(Thermogravimetric analysis), 수직불꽃저항성 시험(ASTM D6413), 콘칼로리미터법(ISO 5660-1), 한계 불꽃 확신 속도 시험(ISO 15025)으로 열 안정성 및 난연성이 시험되었다. 기능성화 산화그래핀과 폴리인산암모늄이 동시에 코팅된 직물은 단일 물질 코팅 직물보다 우수한 난연성을 보였고, 연소 이후에도 탄화된 부분의 팽창 효과로 섬유의 형상을 유지하는 것이 관찰되었다. 난연 직물의 세탁 안정성을 위해 추가적인 발수 처리 또한 시도되었다.

In this study, three solders, Sn-37Pb, Sn-3.5Ag, and Sn-3.8Ag-0.7Cu were screen printed on both electroless Ni/Au and OSP metal finished micro-via PCBs (Printed Circuit Boards). The interfacial reaction between PCB metal pad finish materials and solder materials, and its effects on the solder bump joint mechanical reliability were investigated. The lead free solders formed a large amount of intermetallic compounds (IMC) than Sn-37Pb on both electroless Ni/Au and OSP (Organic Solderabilty Preservatives) finished PCBs during solder reflows because of the higher Sn content and higher reflow temperature. For OSP finish, scallop-like $Cu_{6}$ /$Sn_{5}$ and planar $Cu_3$Sn intermetallic compounds (IMC) were formed, and fracture occurred 100% within the solder regardless of reflow numbers and solder materials. Bump shear strength of lead free solders showed higher value than that of Sn-37Pb solder, because lead free solders are usually harder than eutectic Sn-37Pb solder. For Ni/Au finish, polygonal shaped $Ni_3$$Sn_4$ IMC and P-rich Ni layer were formed, and a brittle fracture at the Ni-Sn IMC layer or the interface between Ni-Sn intermetallic and P-rich Ni layer was observed after several reflows. Therefore, bump shear strength values of the Ni/Au finish are relatively lower than those of OSP finish. Especially, spalled IMCs at Sn-3.5Ag interface was observed after several reflow times. And, for the Sn-3.8Ag-0.7Cu solder case, the ternary Sn-Ni-Cu IMCs were observed. As a result, it was found that OSP finished PCB was a better choice for solders on PCB in terms of flip chip mechanical reliability.

Ball grid array (BGA) substrate 상의 0.5 $\mu\textrm{m}$Au/5 $\mu\textrm{m}$Ni/Cu 층으로 구성된 접촉 패드(pad)와 In-15(wt.%)Pb-5Ag 솔더 볼 사이에서 리플로우 및 고상 시효동안 일어나는 금속학적 반응 특성이 조사되었다. 1-5 분의 리플로우 시간에 따라 솔더/패드 계면에서 $AuIn_2$ 또는 Ni-In 금속간 화합물층이 형성됨이 관찰되었다. 리플로우 동안 용융 In-l5Pb-5Ag 솔더 내로의 Au 층의 용해 속도는 $2\times 10^{-3}$ $\mu\textrm{m}$/sec 정도로 측정되어 공정 Sn-37Pb와 비교하여 매우 느린 것으로 관찰되었다. $130^{\circ}C$에서 500시간의 고상 시효 후에는 초기 리플로우 시간에 관계없이 $Ni_{28}In_{72}$ 금속간 화합물층이 약 3 $\mu\textrm{m}$까지 성장하였다. 이를 통하여 솔더 합금에서의 In 원자들은 아래의 Ni 층과 반응하기 위하여 리플로우 동안 형성된 $AuIn_2$상을 통하여 확산하는 것으로 관찰되었다. 미세구조 관찰과 전단 시험을 통하여 In-l5Pb-5Ag합금의 경우는 Sn-37Pb 조성과는 달리 Au/Ni surface finish 상에 사용시에도 솔더 접합부에서의 Au-embrittlement를 야기 시키지 않는 것으로 분석되었다.

중수로형 핵연료 제조공정 중 연료봉 피복관에 간격체와 지지체 등의 부착물이 브레이징으로 접합된다. 본 연구에서는 베릴륨을 물리 증착법(PVD)으로 접합될 부착물의 표면에 증착한 것과 비정질 용가재[$Zr_{1-x}Be_{x}(0.3{\le}x{\le}0.5)$]를 사용하여 브레이징된 접합부의 미세조직과 경도 등의 특성을 비교하고 브레이징 온도가 접합부에 미치는 영향 조사하였다. 비정질 용가재에 의한 접합층의 두께는 PVD-Be의 경우와 비교하여 더 얇았고, Be 함량이 감소할수록 접합층의 두께는 감소하였으며 모재의 침식은 거의 없었다. PVD-Be의 경우 공정 반응, 액상 출현, 모세관 현상과 확산으로 브레이징 되나 비정질 합금은 용가재 만이 용융되어 액상 접합되는 것으로 사료된다. PVD-Be 접합부의 미세조직은 계면에서 수지상이 형성되어 내부로 성장하나, 비정질 합금에 의한 접합부는 석출된 제2상들이 구상으로 구성되며 브레이징 온도가 증가할수록 구상은 더욱 커졌다. 비정질 합금 접합부의 경도는 Be 함량이 감소할수록 경도는 증가하였다. 본 연구에 사용된 비정질 합금 중 $Zr_{0.7}Be_{0.3}$ 합금은 접합부에서 Be의 모재로의 확산이 적어 부드러운 계면과 모재의 침식이 없었고 높은 경도 때문에 핵연료 피복재 접합에 가장 적합한 용가재로 사료된다.

Flow blockage of the fuel assembly in the lead-based fast reactor (LFR) may produce critical local spots, which will result in cladding failure and threaten reactor safety. In this study, the flow blockage characteristics were analyzed with the sub-channel analysis method, and the circumferentially-varied method was employed for considering the non-uniform distribution of circumferential temperature. The developed sub-channel analysis code SACOS-PB was validated by a heat transfer experiment in a blocked 19-rod bundle cooled by lead-bismuth eutectic. The deviations between the predicted coolant temperature and experimental values are within ±5%, including small and large flow blockage scenarios. And the temperature distributions of the fuel rod could be better simulated by the circumferentially-varied method for the small blockage scenario. Based on the validated code, the analysis of blockage characteristics was conducted. It could be seen from the temperature and flow distributions that a large blockage accident is more destructive compared with a small one. The sensitivity analysis shows that the closer the blockage location is to the exit, the more dangerous the accident is. Similarly, a larger blockage length will lead to a more serious case. And a higher exit temperature will be generated resulting from a higher peak coolant temperature of the blocked region. This work could provide a reference for the future design and development of the LFR.

Liquid lead-bismuth cooled fast reactor is one of the most promising reactor types among the fourth-generation nuclear energy systems. The flow and heat transfer characteristics of lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) are completely different from ordinary fluids due to its special thermal properties, causing that the traditional Reynolds analogy is no longer recommended and appropriate. More accurate turbulence flow and heat transfer model for the liquid metal lead-bismuth should be developed and applied in CFD simulation. In this paper, a specific CFD solver for simulating the flow and heat transfer of liquid lead-bismuth based on the k - 𝜀 - k_𝜃 - 𝜀_𝜃 model was developed based on the open source platform OpenFOAM. Then the advantage of proposed model was demonstrated and validated against a set of experimental data. Finally, the simulation of LBE turbulent flow and heat transfer in a 7-pin wire-wrapped rod bundle with the k - 𝜀 - k_𝜃 - 𝜀_𝜃 model was carried out. The influence of wire on the flow and heat transfer characteristics and the three-dimensional distribution of key thermal hydraulic parameters such as temperature, cross-flow velocity and Nusselt number were studied and presented. Compared with the traditional SED model with a constant Pr_t = 1.5 or 2.0, the k - 𝜀 - k_𝜃 - 𝜀_𝜃 model is more accurate on predicting the turbulence flow and heat transfer of liquid lead-bismuth. The average relative error of the k - 𝜀 - k_𝜃 - 𝜀_𝜃 model is reduced by 11.1% at most under the simulation conditions in this paper. This work is meaningful for the thermal hydraulic analysis and structure design of fuel assembly in the liquid lead-bismuth cooled fast reactor.
