  • 화학물질의 사용 증대와 더불어 위험물 및 독성가스 누출 사고가 빈번하게 일어나고 있다. 그 중에서도 위험물 저장설비 사고는 누출이 감지되었을 때 대응하기 위한 초동 조치가 가장 중요하지만, 전적으로 조업자에 의한 경험에 비중이 크기 때문에, 잘못된 판단으로 인한 더 큰 물적, 인적 피해가 발생할 가능성이 높다. 본 연구는 기존 고정식 감지기를 통한 알람 발생 후 수동적인 대응을 취하는 현 접근 방식에서 벗어나, 오픈소스기술을 적용하여 쉽게 제작이 가능한 로봇 플랫폼에서 작동하는 이동식 센서를 활용한 능동적인 누출원 추적 시스템을 설계하였다. 아울러 프로토타입 시스템의 검증을 통해 누출 초기의 정확한 현장 상황파악 및 조기대응을 바탕으로 사고의 확산 및 피해 최소화의 기틀을 마련하고자 하였다.

  • To improve the performance of high temperature superconducting current leads, variable cross-sectional area is considered. The cross-sectional area is varied as a function of current density to fix the safety factor along lead length. New integration method is devised to find optimum cross-sectional area distribution. New design of current lead has low heat leak into cryostat and less material than constant cross-sectional area leads. Conduction cooled lead is considered. The developed method is applied to Bi2223 current leads sheathed Ag-Au alloy.

  • In order to apply the leak before break (LBB) concept to nuclear piping systems, the dynamic strain aging effect of low carbon steel materials has to be taken into account, in compliance with the requirements of the Korean Standard Review Guide (KSRG) 3.6.3-1. For this goal, J-R tests are needed for a range of various temperatures and loading rates, including dynamic loading conditions. In the dynamic loading J-R test, the unloading compliance method can not be applied to measure the crack growth and direct current potential drop (DCPD) method; this method also has a problem defining the crack initiation point. The normalization method is known as a very useful method to determine the J-R curve under dynamic loading because it does not need additional equipment or complicated loading sequences such as electric current or unloading. This method was accepted by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) as a standard test method E1820 A15 in 2001. However, it has not yet been clearly verified yet if the normalization method is sufficiently reliable to be applied to LBB. In this study, the basic background of the J-integral, LBB and dynamic loading J-R test are explained, and the current status for dynamic loading J-R test methods are reviewed from the view point of LBB for nuclear piping. In particular, the theoretical and historical background of the normalization method which has received attention recently, is summarized. Recent studies for this method are introduced and future works are suggested that may improve the reliability of LBB for nuclear piping.

  • 함정에는 격벽으로 구분되어 나누어지는 공간인 격실이 종류와 목적에 따라 수개 혹은 수십 개가 존재한다. 이러한 격실들은 화재 및 화재로 인한 연기의 전이방지, 침수 시 침수의 확산 방지 등 특정 격실에서 발생하는 특이 상황들이 타 격실로의 전이를 방지하여 생존성 향상에 목적을 두고 설계된다. 생존성 향상 목적 달성을 위하여 각 격실들은 기밀 또는 수밀을 유지하도록 건조하며, 각 격실의 기밀 또는 수밀 정도를 확인하기 위하여 함정 건조 단계에서 평가를 수행한다. 건조하고 있는 군함에 관한 평가는 해군 지침에 의거하여 함 건조업체 주관으로 해군 및 국방기술품질원이 입회하여 평가를 실시한다. 생존성과 직결되는 만큼 격실 기밀 평가의 중요성은 매우 높아 명확한 기준에 따라 수행되고 있으나, 1개 이상의 복수개 격실 기밀 평가 시 1개 압력센서로 압력을 측정하여 격실 압력을 실시간으로 확인하는 것과 각 격실별 미세한 압력 변동 사항 확인이 제한되는 것을 식별하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 현재 수상함정 중 군함에서 실시하고 있는 그룹 격실 기밀평가 방안에 대한 개선 방안 및 신뢰성 검증 방안에 대해 서술하였다.

  • LBB(Leak-Before-Break) analysis is performed for the highest stress location of each different type of mateerials in the nuclear piping line. In most cases, the highest stress occurs in the pipe and nozzle interface location. i.e. terminal end. The current finite element analysis approach utilizes the symmetry condition both for locations near the nozzle and for locationa away from the nozzle to minimize the size of the finite element model and to make analysis simple when calculating the J-integral values at the crack tip. In other words, the nozzle is not included in the finite element model. However, in reality, the symmetric condition is not applicable for the pipe-nozzle interface location. Because the pipe-nozzle interface location is asymmetric due to different stiffenss of the pipe and nozzle(both material and dimensions). The simplified analysis approach for pipe-nozzle interface locaiton is too conservative for a smaller diameter piping. In tlhis paper, various analyses are performed for the range of materials and crack sizes to evaluate the nozzle effect for a LBB anlaysis. This paper presents methodology for developing the piping evaluaiton diagram at the pipe-nozzle interface location.

  • It is envisaged that the effect of increasingly stricter air emissions legislation implemented through IMO Annex VI and other local air quality controls, together with favorable financial conditions for the use of natural gas instead of liquid fuel oil as a bunker fuel, will see an increasing number of DF engine and single gas fuel engine applications to LNG carriers and other vessel types. As part of provision for the current international movements in the shipping industry to reduce GHG emission in air, new design concepts using natural gas as an alternative fuel source for propulsion of large commercial vessels, have been developed by shipyards and research institutes. In this study, an explosion analysis for a gas supply machinery room of LNG-fuelled container ship is presented. The gas fuel concept is employed for the high pressure ME-GI where a leakage in the natural gas double supply pipe to the engines is the subject of the present analysis. The consequences of a leak are simulated with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tools to predict typical leak scenarios, gas cloud sizes and possible explosion pressures. In addition, capacity of the structure which is subject to explosion loads has been assessed.

  • A theoretical investigation to find thermodynamically optimum design conditions of conduction-cooled Peltier current leads is performed. A Peltier current lead (PCL) is composed of a thermoelectric element (TE), a metallic lead and a high temperature superconductor (HTS) lead in the order of decreasing temperature. Mathematical expressions for the minimum heat flow per unit current crossing the TE-metal interface and the minimum heat flow per unit current from the metal lead to the joint of the metal and the HTS leads are obtained. It is shown that the temperature at the TE -metal interface possesses a unique optimal value that minimizes the heat flow to the joint and that this optimal value depends on the material properties of the TE and the metallic lead but not the joint temperature nor electric current. It is also shown that there exists a unique optimal value for the joint temperature between the metal and the HTS leads that minimizes the sum of the power dissipated by ohmic heating in the current leads and the refrigerator power consumed to cool the lead, for a given length of the HTS.

  • The purpose of this study is to provide basic data for the safety assessment of a water purifier when water leaks due to inappropriate maintenance and the examination of the cause of accidents related to the leak. Due to its inspection and management by non-specialists, if a leak occurs in a water purifier with the water level controller being inclined, it may result in the failure of the compressor, power supply line, PCB, etc. The analysis of the thermal diffusion pattern of water purifier compressors using a thermal image camera shows that its maximum temperature was approximately $80^{\circ}C$. In addition, its operating current was a maximum of 13 A and the system's operating current was approximately 1.7 A after the compressor was charged. It was found that the housing type power cable cover of the compressor had the effect of preventing electric shock but has poor flame resistance. Furthermore, the performance of the overload protector, PTC relays, etc., was excellent but they have potential for problems as metallic terminals were exposed, resulting in the potential of a safety related accident. The terminals and their surface damaged by the tracking showed a trace of carbonization and the resistance between terminals was measured to be approximately $8{\Omega}$. In addition, while the tracking was proceeding, the fuse and circuit breaker installed for system protection did not operate.

  • An analysis of the current water leak status of understand structure (underground parking lots, staircases, plumbing systems, water reservoirs, etc.) of multi-family housing in South Korea shows that water leaks are found from cracks in all areas of the underground structure caused by the degradation environment (water pressure by underground water, humidity, temperature, earth pressure, soil behaviour and vibration, etc.), which result in various problems, including mold, malodour, debonding of finishing materials, exfoliation, breakout, water leaks in electrical boxes, efflorescence, sedimentation of calcium hydroxide, decoloration, rusting, damages and pollution among others. Therefore, this study aims to analyse the current status of water leaks in underground structure and use the results as the basic data for developing a standard guideline for water leaks and maintenance by parts of the underground structure of multi-family housing.

  • Current research about voltage leakage involves investigation of the effects of leaked voltage and current on humans through simulated environments and dummies. Electrocution results from leaked current when electricity flows through the body as a result of potential difference. Research that analyzes actual electrocution is insufficient because of the danger from leaked voltage present in the leakage area. This thesis analyzes magnetic flux density from current around a leak to investigate the distribution of current. The authors used a simulated environment to investigate electrocution accidents that frequently occur during floods through leakage along metal surfaces, and evaluated the distribution of leaked magnetic flux.
