  • Korean ports have some problems in the aspect of quality & quantity in the bunkering process. Quality of bunker is assessed as more higher than competing ports. However, quality of bunkering procedure is assessed as lower. Especially, supply chain from loading of bunker to the bunker barge at oil terminal, transport it, and supply it to the ship has not been secured. Furthermore, aspect of quantity of bunker is more serious rather than that of quality of bunkering process. Disputes on the quantity of bunker between seller and buyer occur frequently, and residue & theft of bunker is also popularized issue and serious problem. Low bunkering fee is recognized as major reason of that problem, however, though low fee can be solved, it can not be necessary secured that problem could be solved, Therefore, this paper investigates and suggests the scheme to solve the quality problems of bunker supplying procedure, and develop solution toward advanced bunkering ports through removal of the quantity disputes. Concretely, this paper suggests introduction of quality system of bunker supply chain in the aspect of bunker supply procedure, and diversion from conventional sounding method to innovative Mass Flow Metering System in the aspect of bunker measuring. These two innovative solutions contribute to the removal and improvement of current structural problems in bunkering procedure.

  • Environmental conservation is becoming the major conversation topic in the 21st century, the era of environment. In the Law for the Preservation of Water Quality, article 53 states "A business unit which is doing business causing pollution caused by non-point pollutant or builds waste water discharge facilities, should report the installation of the non-point pollutant and install the required pollution control facilities". Environmental pollution caused by oil leaks during operation or maintenance has been found in the railway sector. Especially, rolling stock depot is most likely to be affected by environmental pollution. Therefore, in this paper We have investigated non-point pollutant in the rolling stock depot area and have studied adequate disposal method to minimize the effect of the non-point pollutant, hoping to supply the preliminary data for building an environment-friendly rolling stock depot.

  • The main objectives of this study are to analyze the leaked gas dispersion and quantify the potential overpressures due to vapor cloud explosions in order to identify the most significant contributors to risk by using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFX & FLACS) for gas fuelled ships. A series of CFD simulations and analyses have been performed for the various gas release scenarios in a closed module, covering different release rates and ventilating methods. This study is specially focused on the LNG FGS (Fuel Gas Supply) system recently developed for the propulsion of VLCC crude oil carriers by shipyards. Most of work presented is discussed on the gas dispersion from leaks in the FGS room, and shows some blast prediction validation examples.

  • Increasing demand in developing countries for animal sources of food including red meat is predicted to double by 2050. In Indonesia, there has always been a gap between supply and demand of beef with national beef production only satisfying about 45% of demand. This paper aims to describe the current features and prospects for beef production systems in Indonesia. The first part of the article reviews and analyses Indonesian beef cattle production systems. The second part addresses issues related to the current systems for beef production that could become important for future development of the beef industry in Indonesia. Recommendations to improve breeding and reproduction, to empower smallholder farmers, to improve the capacity of industry-related institutions to enhance technology transfer, and to develop systems for industry development such as integration of palm oil or plantations with beef cattle production are briefly discussed.

  • The purpose of the study is development and investigation about basic performance of the system operation on a dual fueled cogeneration system(CGS), which is operated with biogas and gas oil. As often seen in dual fueled CGS performance, the electric generating efficiency was obtained about 26□. Methane contained in the biogas could not bum completely at lower load, and it was discharged into exhaust gas. Considerable amount of the methane burned in the exhaust pipe, and the heat recovery ratio was 42□ on heat balance. As a result, the total heat efficiency, which is a summation of generating efficiency and heat recovery efficiency reached to about 70□. The supply of biogas into the engine reduces smoke density and NOx concentration in exhaust gas. At lower load, methane burned slowly and large portion of it was discharged without burning. Therefore the measures are desirable that promotes combustion of methane at lower load.

  • The breaker noise is one of the main noise sources of construction site. It is very important to assess and measure the breaker noise accurately, because the noise labelling will be in effect January 2008 in Korea. Therefore, It is necessary to measure the sound power level of breakers and use a appropriate test method in accordance with international standard. In this study, we measure the sound power level of breakers by using the breaker noise measurement system. This system makes it possible to measure the breaker noise more accurately than to measure the noise of that attached with excavator, because this system can control main factors affecting breaker noise such as hydraulic input power, hydraulic supply pressure, breaker inlet oil flow and so on.

  • The experimental investigation on the inlet pressure of a large tilting pad journal bearing is studied. The continuous distribution of the film pressure and film thickness are measured along with the shaft speed and bearing load for various flow rates. Considerably large inlet pressure is observed at the entrance of each pad, especially lower pads. The inlet pressure increases with the increase of shaft speed as well as bearing load, but it is almost independent on the folw rate and the oil supply temperature. Because of the inlet pressure, the upper pads always keep up slight wedge film shape which are almost parallel to the journal surface, and spragging is not observed in the upper pads with no preload.

  • Since the first oil embargo (1973), there have been developed many different types of energy-economy interaction models based upon various aspects of energy impact mechanism. We will propose to develop an integrated energy-economy interaction analysis system for less developed countries' energy policy analysis, especially for investment analysis toward constructing energy-saving industry infrastructure ; which is based on the motivation of combined energy models by John P. Weyant. This modeling system can cover the economic growth, inter-industry transactions including production features, and process analysis of energy sector in the total network scheme of general equilibrium, so that it can give many political implications as well as the modeling concept to be used for analyzing various political issues and making decisions related to national energy environment.
