기존의 단열 시스템, 지하동굴 건설기술과 새로운 동결링 방벽기술을 결합하여 암반동굴식 지하 LNG 저장시스템이 개발되었다. 이 저장시스템의 기술적 적합성은 파일럿 동굴 실증시설의 건설과 운영을 통해 검증된 바 있으며, 조만간 실규모 프로젝트가 시작될 예정이다. LNG 저장시스템에서 중요한 사항 중의 하나는 극저온 열전달을 통해 장기간의 운영 기간동안 열손실을 최소화하는 것이다. 이 논문은 지하 LNG 저장 시스템의 설계를 위한 몇 가지 중요한 열전달 해석 결과를 제시하며, 기화율, 단열재 두께와 같은 설계 변수를 결정하기 위해 일련의 실규모 동굴에 대한 열전달 및 열-수리 해석을 실시하였다. 열-수리 연계해석결과 LNG 저장시설의 기화율은 초기 단계에서 0.04 %/day로 떨어져 유지되는 것으로 나타났다. 이 값은 암반내 존재하는 불연속면을 고려할 때 더욱 낮아질 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Flammability limits of opposed flow diffusion flame in a narrow channel was investigated experimentally and theoretically. There were three different extinction modes corresponding to high strain rate (HSR), low strain rate (LSR) and dilution ratio (DR) limits. To investigate these limits, a theoretical study was followed by focusing on flow and heat transfer characteristics. Consequently, a dead space concept that has been used for premixed flames was important to reveal the heat loss mechanism in a narrow channel especially for LSR conditions even in the case of diffusion flames.

A microchannel PCHE is manufactured by the two technologies of micro photo-etching and diffusion bonding. In this paper, heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics by applying various configuration for the flow channel in the microchannel PCHE is experimentally investigated. The flow channel configurations are designed three types such as straight, wavy and offset strip channels. The performance experiment of each configuration is performed for Reynolds numbers in ranges of $100{\sim}700$ under various flow conditions for the hot side and the Reynolds number of cold side is fixed at 350. The inlet temperatures of the hot side and cold side are conducted as $40^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$, respectively. The heat transfer performance of wavy channel, which was similar to that of offset strip channel, was much higher than that of straight channel. The effectiveness of wavy channel and offset strip channel was evaluated as about $0.5{\sim}0.9$. The pressure drop of wavy channel was highest among configurations and that of offset strip channel was lower than that of straight channel because the round curved surface of each strip edge was reduced the pressure loss.

Fire characteristics can be analyzed more realistically by using more accurate properties related to the fire dynamics and one way to acquire these fire properties is to use one of the inverse property estimation techniques. In this study two optimization algorithms which are frequently applied for the inverse heat transfer problems are selected to demonstrate the procedure of obtaining pyrolysis properties of charring material with relatively simple thermal decomposition. Thermal decomposition is occurred at the surface of the charring material heated by receiving the radiative energy from external heat sources and in this process the heat transfer through the charring material is simplified by an unsteady 1-dimensional problem. The basic genetic algorithm(GA) and repulsive particle swarm optimization(RPSO) algorithm are used to find the eight properties of a charring material; thermal conductivity(virgin, char), specific heat(virgin, char), char density, heat of pyrolysis, pre-exponential factor and activation energy by using the surface temperature and mass loss rate history data which are obtained from the calculated experiments. Results show that the RPSO algorithm has better performance in estimating the eight pyrolysis properties than the basic GA for problems considered in this study.

Printed Circuit Heat Exchanger (PCHE) is a widely used heat exchanger in the supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO₂) Brayton cycle because it can work under high temperature and pressure, and has been a hot topic in Next Generation Nuclear Plant (NGNP) projects for use as recuperators and condensers. Most previous studies focused on channel structures or shapes. However, no clear advancement has so far been seen in the allover size of the PCHE. In this paper, we proposed an optimal size of the PCHE with a fixed volume. Two boundary conditions of PCHE were simulated, respectively. When the volume of PCHE was fixed, the heat transfer rate and pressure loss were picked as the optimization objectives. The Pareto front was obtained by the Multi-objective optimization procedure. We got the optimized number of PCHE channels under two different boundary conditions from the Pareto front. The comprehensive performance can be increased by 5.3% while holding in the same volume. The numerical results from this study can be used to improve the design of PCHE with straight channels.

CSPACE (Core meltdown, Safety and Performance Analysis CodE for nuclear power plants) for a simulation of severe accident progression in a Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) is developed by coupling of verified system thermal hydraulic code of SPACE (Safety and Performance Analysis CodE for nuclear power plants) and core damage progression code of COMPASS (Core Meltdown Progression Accident Simulation Software). SPACE is responsible for the description of fluid state in nuclear system nodes, while COMPASS is responsible for the prediction of thermal and mechanical responses of core fuels and reactor vessel heat structures. New heat transfer models to each phase of the fluid, flow blockage, corium behavior in the lower head are added to COMPASS. Then, an interface module for the data transfer between two codes was developed to enable coupling. An implicit coupling scheme of wall heat transfer was applied to prevent fluid temperature oscillation. To validate the performance of newly developed code CSPACE, we analyzed typical severe accident scenarios for OPR1000 (Optimized Power Reactor 1000), which were initiated from large break loss of coolant accident, small break loss of coolant accident, and station black out accident. The results including thermal hydraulic behavior of RCS, core damage progression, hydrogen generation, corium behavior in the lower head, reactor vessel failure were reasonable and consistent. We demonstrate that CSPACE provides a good platform for the prediction of severe accident progression by detailed review of analysis results and a qualitative comparison with the results of previous MELCOR analysis.

진공 챔버 내부에서 열접촉된 시료가열장치와 시료 사이의 열전달 현상을 고찰하였다. 열전달은 가스 유량과 기체 압력에 따른 대류현상, 시료와 접촉하는 기판가열장치의 표면 거칠기 및 접촉압력에 따른 전도현상, 기판가열장치의 표면 방사율에 따른 복사현상으로 나누어 푸리에 식과 슈테판-볼츠만 식을 이용하여 열흐름 값을 분석하였다. 실험은 시료가열장치의 온도를 $100\;-\;500^{\circ}C$ 사이에서 일정하게 유지하면서 300 mTorr - 1 Torr 사이의 압력에 따른 시료의 온도를 측정하고, 푸리에 식과 슈테판-볼츠만 식을 이용하여 열흐름 값을 계산하였다. 열흐름 값의 산출에 사용된 푸리에 계수의 정확성을 확인하기 위해, 역으로 열흐름 값으로부터 온도차를 구하는 방법을 사용하였으며 0.33 % 오차 내에서 재현됨을 확인하였다.

열저장소 내 열성층화는 에너지저장 시스템의 효율을 향상시키고 수요 발생시 더 많은 유효에너지를 공급하기 위해 필수적인 기술이다. 일반적으로 저장소의 종횡비(폭에 대한 높이의 비)와 크기에 따라 열성층도가 달라지는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 논문은 열수 저장을 위한 암반공동의 종횡비와 저장용량이 저장공동 내 열성층화와 외부로의 열손실에 미치는 영향을 조사하는 데 연구 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 전산유체역학 코드인 FLUENT를 이용하여 암반공동의 종횡비와 저장용량에 따른 열전달 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 성층도 정량화 지수를 이용하여 시간경과에 따른 열성층화의 변화를 분석하였으며, 저장공동 외부로의 열손실을 평가하였다. 분석 결과, 종횡비가 증가함에 따라 공동 내 열성층화가 향상되는 경향을 보였으나, 종횡비 3-4 이상부터는 이러한 영향이 크지 않은 것으로 분석되었다. 저장용량이 작은 암반공동에 비해 용량이 큰 암반공동에서 상대적으로 긴 시간 동안 열성층화가 높게 유지되는 것으로 분석되었으나, 종횡비 증가에 따라 저장용량이 다른 공동들간의 성층화 차이가 줄어드는 경향을 나타냈다. 암반공동의 종횡비가 커질수록 공동의 표면적이 늘어나 종횡비의 증가에 따라 주변 암반으로의 열손실이 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 단위 저장용량을 줄여 소규모 다중공동을 적용하는 경우, 총 저장용량이 동일한 단일공동에 비해 전체 열손실량이 증가하는 것으로 분석되었다.
