일반적으로 대형 버스 및 트럭 등 같은 경우, 부하가 아주 크다. 또한 내리막길이나 장거리 운행 시에 잦은 제동으로 인하여 마찰을 이용한 기존 방식의 브레이크들은 브레이크 파열 및 페이드 현상 때문에 제동 안전성에 문제가 있다. 이러한 제동 부담을 분담하기 위해 현재 보조브레이크(리타더)가 필수적이며, 엔진 계통의 보조브레이크가 아닌 비접촉식 브레이크 같은 친환경 보조브레이크가 요구되고 있다. 그리고 차량 제동시 발생하는 기계에너지를 전기에너지로 회생하여 에너지효율을 향상시키려는 연구가 현재 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 와전류를 이용한 전자기형 리타더에서 발생되는 전기에너지를 회수하기 위한 전압 제어 방법을 다룰 것이다. 리타더의 제동에너지를 전기에너지로 회생하기 위해 L-C 공진회로로 구성하였다. 리타더를 자여자 유도발전기(Self-Excited Induction Generator)로 모델링 하였고 이를 토대로 시뮬레이션 및 실험을 진행하였다. 자여자 유도발전기의 구동 조건에 대해서 언급하고 이를 파라미터에 따라 3-D map으로 만들었다. 또 회로 중의 FET 게이트에 전압을 인가하는 제어장치의 구동펄스에 따라 바뀌는 공진회로의 전압을 분석하였으며, 이 전압을 제어하기 위하여 PI 제어기를 이용한 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 이 전압을 3상 AC/DC컨버터를 통과한 후 DC/DC컨버터를 통하여 차량 내부의 배터리에 충전되는데 제어를 위해 3상 AC/DC에서의 전압 리플을 MA(Moving Average) 방식의 필터를 사용하여 DC/DC컨버터의 입력에 맞도록 제어하였다. 이와 같이 전자기형 리타더에서 유도되는 전압을 제어기의 제어 펄스에 따라 제어할 수 있으며 Matlab Simulink를 이용하여 리타더의 모델과 그 제어기의 타당성을 보였다. 또 실제 M-G Set 실험을 통하여 그 연관성을 확인하였다.

The Down-the-Hole hammer is one of the pneumatic drill equipment used for grinding, drilling, and mining. One the advantages of which is that a reduction work efficiency at deep site are relatively small compared to other drilling methods. Due to the large vibration in the underground area, it is difficult to measure the performance of the hammer, and hammer testing requires substantial production cost and operating expenses so research on the development of the hammer is insufficient. Therefore, this study has developed a dynamic simulation model that apprehends the operating principles of an 8-inch DTH hammer and calculates performance data such as performance impact force, piston speed, and BPM. By using the simulation model, design factors related to strike force and BPM were selected, and the influence of each design factors on performance was analyzed through ANOVA analysis. As a result, be the most important for BPM and the strike force are position of upper port that push the piston in the direction of the bit and in BPM, the size of the empty space between the bits and the piston is the second most important design factor.

The finite element method (FEM), discrete element method (DEM), and Discontinuous deformation analysis (DDA) are among the standard numerical techniques applied in computational geo-mechanics. However, in some cases there no possibility for modelling by traditional finite analytical techniques or other mesh-based techniques. The solution presented in the current study as a completely Lagrangian and mesh-free technique is smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH). This method was basically applied for simulation of fluid flow by dividing the fluid into several particles. However, several researchers attempted to simulate soil-water interaction, landslides, and failure of soil by SPH method. In fact, this method is able to deal with behavior and interaction of different states of materials (liquid and solid) and multiphase soil models and their large deformations. Soil indicates different behaviors when interacting with water, structure, instrumentations, or different layers. Thus, study into these interactions using the mesh based grids has been facilitated by mesh-less SPH technique in this work. It has been revealed that the fast development, computational sophistication, and emerge of mesh-less particle modeling techniques offer solutions for problems which are not modeled by the traditional mesh-based techniques. Also it has been found that the smoothed particle hydrodynamic provides advanced techniques for simulation of soil materials as compared to the current traditional numerical methods. Besides, findings indicate that the advantages of applying this method are its high power, simplicity of concept, relative simplicity in combination of modern physics, and particularly its potential in study of large deformations and failures.

Numerical research on four typical configurations of noise mitigation structures and their characteristics of wind loads are reported in this paper. The turbulence model as well the model parameters, the modeling of the equilibrium atmospheric boundary layer, the mesh discretization etc., were carefully considered in the numerical model to improve the numerical accuracy. Also a numerical validation of one configuration with the wind tunnel test data was made. Through detailed analyses of the wind load characteristics with the inclined part and the wind incidence angle, it was found that the addition of an inclined part to a noise mitigation structure at-grade would affect the mean nett pressure coefficients on the vertical part, and that the extent of this effect depends on the length of the inclined part itself. The magnitudes of the mean nett pressure coefficients for both the vertical part and the inclined part of noise mitigation structure at-grade tended to increase with length of inclined part. Finally, a comparison with the wind load code British/European Standard BS EN 1991-1-4:2005 was made and the envelope of the mean nett pressure coefficients of the noise mitigation structures was given for design purposes. The current research should be helpful to improve current wind codes by providing more reasonable wind pressure coefficients for different configurations of noise mitigation structures.

The volumetric solar receiver is a key element of solar power plants using air. The solar flux distribution inside the receiver should be a priori known for its heat transfer analysis. Previous works have not considered characteristics of the solar flux although they change with radiative properties of receiver materials and receiver geometries. A numerical method, which is based on the Monte Carlo ray-tracing method, was developed in the current work. The solar flux distributions inside multi-channeled volumetric solar receivers were calculated when light is concentrated at the KIER solar furnace. It turned out that 99 percentage of the concentrated solar energy is absorbed within 15mm channel length for the channel radius smaller than 1.5mm. If the concentrated light is assumed to be diffuse, the absorbed solar energy at the channel entrance region is over predicted while the light penetrates more deeply into the channel. Once the presented results are imported into the heat transfer analysis, one could examine effects of material property and geometry of the receiver on air temperature profiles.

The LOFT LOCE L2-3 was simulated using the RELAP5/MOD2 Cycle 36.04 code to assess its capability in predicting the thermal-hydraulic phenomena in LBLOCA of a PWR. The reactor vessel was simulated with two core channels and split downcomer modeling for a base case calculation using the frozen code. The result of the base calculation showed that the code predicted the hydraulic behavior, and the blowdown thermal response at high power region of the core reasonably and that the code had deficiencies in the critical How model during subcooled-two-phase transition period, in the CHF correlation at high mass flux and in the blowdown rewet criteria. An overprediction of coolant inventory due to the deficiencies yielded the poor prediction of reflood thermal response. Improvement of the code, RELAP5 / MOD2 Cycle 36.04, based on the sensitivity study increased the accuracy of the prediction of the rewet phenomena.

The lack of plant-side energy storage analysis to support nuclear power plants (NPP), has setup this research endeavor to understand the characteristics and role of specific storage technologies and the integration to an NPP. The paper provides a qualitative review of a wide range of configurations for integrating the energy storage system (ESS) to an operating NPP with pressurized water reactor (PWR). The role of ESS technologies most suitable for large-scale storage are evaluated, including thermal energy storage, compressed gas energy storage, and liquid air energy storage. The methods of integration to the NPP steam cycle are introduced and categorized as electrical, mechanical, and thermal, with a review on developments in the integration of ESS with an operating PWR. By adopting simplified off-design modeling for the steam turbines and heat exchangers, the results show the performance of the PWR steam cycle changes with respect to steam bypass rate for thermal and mechanical storage integration options. Analysis of the integrated system characteristics of proposed concepts for three different ESS suggests that certain storage technologies could support steady operation of an NPP. After having reviewed what have been accomplished through the years, the research team presents a list of possible future works.

A shear wall is a structural member designed to effectively resist in-plane lateral forces, such as strong winds and earthquakes. Due to its efficiency and stability, shear walls are often installed in residential buildings and essential facilities such as nuclear power plants. In this research, to predict the results of the shaking table test of the three-story shear wall RC structure hosted by the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute, three types of numerical modeling techniques are proposed: Preliminary, Calibrated 1, and Calibrated 2 models, in order of improvement. For the proposed models, an earthquake of the 2016 Gyeongju, South Korea (peak ground acceleration of 0.28 g) and its amplified earthquake (peak ground acceleration of 0.50 g) are input. The response spectra of the measuring points are obtained by numerical analysis. Good agreement is observed in the comparisons between the experiment results and the simulation conducted on the finally adopted numerical model, Calibrated 2. In the process of improving the model, this paper investigates the influences of the mode shape, material properties, and boundary conditions on the structure's seismic behavior.

FDM 3D printers have become widespread, and investment in the 3D printer industry is increasing. Therefore, many 3D printers are released and the functions of products are emphasized. However, to lower unit prices, open-type 3D printers are sold in kit form, and their performance is very low. If the 3D printer has many heat sources and is sealed, there is the possibility that the main accessories (the main board, power supply, and motor) will be damaged by trapped heat. At the same time, if the ambient temperature is low due to the properties of the material, the output quality deteriorates. In this study, we analyzed the temperature rise of the main accessories and the quality of the output by the heat bed when a chamber was added to an open-type 3D printer. We also compared the quality of the output due to the air flow with the temperature rise of the main accessories. Moreover, we found the optimal value. As a result of the quality analysis, it was finally confirmed that the case with the chamber at $95^{\circ}C$ was the best for the printing condition. In addition, in the absence of the chamber, the bending of the specimen was found to be large, and in the case of the chamber, the degree of bending was slightly decreased by 0.05 mm.
