A proficiency test is one of programs which Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science(KRISS), as national metrology institute, is putting in operation for the mutual recognition arrangement. The Fluid Flow Group of KRISS evaluated the measurement capability for liquid flowmeter calibrator of the national calibration and test organizations. The uncertainty of national standard system was estimated in accordance with Guide to The Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (ISO), and the turbine flowmeter, which was used for the round-robin test as a reference flowmeter, was characterized. The round-robin tests with the turbine flowmeter package were carried out in 1995 and 1999. The test results of the organizations and those of KRISS agreed within $\pm0.2$%. It is found thus that the organizations have the traceability of the national standard for liquid flow measurement.

Light Oil Flow Standard System(LOFSS), as a national oil flow standard system, in Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science(KRISS) was developed for oil flowmeter calibration, and the expanded uncertainty of flow quantity determination was estimated within 0.04 %. In order to improve the reliability of the LOFSS measurement, a proficiency test was carried out in the flow range of 20 and $240\;m^3/h$ (Reynolds number $20,000{\sim}900,000$). A turbine flowmeter was used as a transfer package in round robin test. The water flow standard system of KRISS, the pipe prover of the national calibration and test organization and the master meter calibrator of the turbine flowmeter supplier, which used the different working fluid respectively, were compared with the turbine flowmeter measurement. The maximum difference of measurement was 0.15 % between the LOFSS and the pipe prover. The En numbers of the each system measurement were evaluated at the same Reynolds number. It was found that the En numbers were less than 1 in the comparison, which means the procedures of the uncertainty estimation of the each calibrators were reasonable and reliable.

Comparing to the gravimetric and volumetric method, the flowmeter calibration based on the master meter method is relatively economical and convenient, especially for high flowrate. The uncertainty of flow quantity and flowrate using the master meter method was evaluated according to the GUM (Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement). In order to apply for the wider flow range, two master meters (electromagnetic flow meter) were employed as reference flowmeters. The uncertainty of the master meter was obtained by combining the statistical variation of the repeated measurements and the variation of fluid density and pipe material due to temperature and pressure changes were scrutinized. for a practical application, the uncertainty of calibrator, whose measuring capacity of 1000 ㎥/h obtained by employing two 500 ㎥/h electromagnetic How meters, was evaluated. The uncertainty budget shows the quantitative contribution of each uncertainty component to the overall uncertainty of the calibrator. As a result, it was found that the dominant uncertainties were from the master meter, which was evaluated statistically, and from the process of least squares fitting. On the contrary, the uncertainties arising from the variation of the fluid density and the pipe volume due to the temperature and pressure were negligible.

The maritime sector is advancing with dedicated endeavor to reduce greenhouse gas in addressing issues with regards to global warming. Since 01 January 2013, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) regulation mandatory requirement for Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) has been in place and should be satisfied by newly-built ships of more than 400 gross tonnage and the Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP) for all ships type. Therefore, compliance to this necessitates planning during the design stage whereas verification can be carried-out through an acceptable method during sea trial. The MEPC-approved 2013 guidance, ISO 15016 and ISO 19019 on EEDI serves the purpose for calculation and verification of attained EEDI value. Individual ships EEDI value should be lower than the required value set by these regulations. The key factors for EEDI verification are power and speed assessment and their synchronization. The shaft power can be measured by telemeter system using strain gage during sea trial. However, calibration of shaft power onboard condition is complicated. Hence, it relies only on proficient technology that operates within the permitted ISO allowance. On the other hand, the ship speed can be measured and calibrated by differential ground positioning system (DGPS). An actual test on a newly-built vessel was carried out to assess the correlation of power and speed. The Energy-efficiency Design Index or Operational Indicator Monitoring System (EDiMS) software developed by the Dynamics Laboratory-Mokpo Maritime University (DL-MMU) and Green Marine Equipment RIS Center (GMERC) of Mokpo Maritime University was utilized for this investigation. In addition, the software can continuously monitor air emission and is a useful tool for inventory and ship energy management plan. This paper introduces the synchronization and identification method between shaft power and ship speed for EEDI verification in accordance with the ISO guidance.

이 연구의 목적은 치과임상에서 사용되는 8종의 합착용 시멘트의 방사선불투과성을 디지털 방사선 촬영술로 평가하는 것이었다. BisCem, Clearfil SA Luting, Duolink, Maxcem Elite, Multilink Speed, Panavia F 2.0, RelyX Unicem Clicker, V-link의 8종의 재료를 5개의 원형 시편 (직경: 4 mm, 두께: 1 mm)으로 제작하였고 사람 치아의 법랑질과 상아질 시편을 1 mm 두께로 준비하여 알루미늄 스텝 웨지와 함께 촬영하였다. 관전압 70kVP, 관전류 4 mA, 노출시간 0.156초, 초첨 필름간 거리는 30 cm으로 영상판을 이용하여 촬영하였으며, ImageJ 소프트웨어를 이용하여 평균 회색조 수치를 측정하고, 이를 흡수계수로 환산한 후 검량선(calibration curve)을 이용하여 각 합착용 시멘트의 등가 알루미늄 두께를 구하였다. 합착용 시멘트의 평균 방사선불투과성은 알루미늄 두께 0.71 ~ 5.66 mm로, RelyX Unicem Clicker (0.71 mm Al)을 제외하고는 등가 알루미늄 두께 보다 높은 방사선불투과성을 보여 ISO 규격을 만족하였으며, 법랑질은 1.79 mm, 상아질은 0.19 mm 두께의 알루미늄에 해당하는 방사선불투과성을 나타내었다.

개인 피폭선량 평가의 검증체계를 확립함에 있어서 기본적으로 갖추어야할 방사선장은 감마선, X-선, 베타선 및 중성자이다 금년에 한국원자력안전기술원에서는 중성자를 제외한 방사선장을 위한 기준조사장치(빔)를 확보하였다. 이 기준조사빔이 국제적으로 소급할 수 있는 방사선장의 역할을 수행할 수 있도록 하기 위하여 국제 표준기구규정 및 선진국의 표준규격 등의 기준과 요구조건에 충족되도록 하였다. 본 논문은 감마선장에 대한 기준조사장치에 관한 것으로서의 기여도 및 방사선장의 균질도를 평가하였고, 이를 국제 기준과 비교한 결과 국내 및 국제 기준을 잘 만족하고 있는 것으로 평가되었다. 또한, 측정된 공기커마율은 $^{137}Cs$ 선원에 대하여 $0.1891{\sim}23.4967{\mu}Gy/s$, $^{60}Co$ 선원에 대해서는 $0.588{\sim}15.9954{\mu}$Gy/s의 값으로 결정하였으며, 공기커마율이 가지는 불확도는 95% 신뢰도 범위에서 2.5% 이내로 결정되었다. 측정된 공기커마율의 신뢰성을 검증하기 위하여 전리함의 교정정수를 독일 PTB의 교정정수에 대하여 재평가한 결과 교정정수가 가지는 불착도(1.2%) 범위 내에서 일치하고 있었으며, 미국의 측정값과 비교한 결과 0.03% 범위 내에서 일치하고 있음이 판명되었다. 그러므로 한국원자력안전기술원에 설치된 감마선장은 국내의 표준 소급체계를 유지하고 있을 뿐만 아니라 미국 및 독일의 소급체계를 확보하게 되었고, 국내 및 국제 기준 방사선장으로 활용 가능하게 되었다.
