In this study, Grafoil$^{TM}$ which has comparable electric resistance and chemical stability but is flexible, fragile, and cheap material was adopted as bipolar plates for proton exchange membrane fuel cell(PEMFC) having only one straight line flow channel. Because of its flexibility, pressurizations of cell with various pressures showed different operating characteristics compared to ordinary graphite-used PEMFC. While performances of both cells decreased as these were pressurized, investigation of ohmic and faradaic resistance by electrochemical impedance measurement indicated different tendency of change. Ohmic resistance of graphite-used cell increased with increasing pressure, which is reversed in Grafoil$^{TM}$-used cell. It is speculated that effective chemical reaction area is decreased with increasing pressure in case of graphite-used one, but because of flexible property of Grafoil$^{TM}$, gas diffusion layer in Grafoil$^{TM}$-used cell was well-activated. Different rate of change of faradaic resistances in both cells support this supposition. However, although optimum point of pressurization is found, it is required to investigate other operating conditions because of low performance compared to graphite-used cell.

Solenoid valves for space launch vehicles require the strict limitations on the size, weight and current consumption comparing to industrial solenoid valves. The preliminary design of a cryogenic and high pressure solenoid valve for propellant tank pressurization which can ensure the operation of solenoid valve under such strict limitation conditions was preformed. The Copper and Constantan materials in coil design have used to prevent the excessive rise of the current at cryogenic state. The measured current of solenoid valve at cryogenic temperature satisfies a design requirement.

In this study, superconducting coil arrangements and cryostat concept design were conducted for the development of 13.2kV/630A bifilar winding type high temperature superconducting(HTS) fault current limiter(FCL) with YBCO coated conductor(CC) wire. The coil consists of several layers with unique non-inductive solenoid winding method. Six types of HTS coil arrangements were investigated for the optimal insulation design of HTS FCL. And, conceptual design of cryostat was conducted for the decrement of thermal invasion and the prevention of low voltage insulation breakdown in the LHe which is used as pressurization gas in sub-cooling condition of liquid nitrogen(LN2). As the results, it was found that the modified suspended type cryostat with horizontal coil arrangement is beneficial to the insulation design of 13.2kV level bifilar winding type HTS FCL.

In the hazardous areas where explosive substances in the form of gases, vapor or mists exist, electrical apparatus and installations must be of explosion-proof construction to prevent or limit the danger of the ignition of potentially explosive atmosphere. In Korea, six types of protection have been specified in the government regulations at present: flameproof enclosure, pressurization, oil immersion, increased safety, intrinsic safety, and special types. If electrical apparatus are made of explosion-proof construction in a way other than five above-mentioned types, and their performance is tested and approved by the reponsible authorities, they may be categorized as special type apparatus. In this paper, we introduced a special type of explosion-proof electrical apparatus, called non-incendive type, and presented its constructional requirements. We also investigated evaluation methods of non-incendive type apparatus to assure the explosion-proof performance, and proposed a new classification method of hazardous areas using probabilistic concept.

When manufacturing bulk graphite, pores develop within the bulk during the carbonization process due to the volatile components of the fillers and the binders. As a result, the physical properties of bulk graphite are inferior to the theoretical values. Impregnants are impregnated into the pores generated in the carbonization process through pressurization and/or depressurization. The physical properties of bulk graphite that has undergone impregnation and re-carbonization processes are outstanding. In the present study, a green body was manufactured by molding with natural graphite flakes and phenolic resin at 45 MPa. Bulk graphite was manufactured by carbonizing the green body at 700 and it was subsequently impregnated with impregnants having viscosity of 25.0 cP, 10.3 cP, and 5.1 cP, and the samples were re-carbonized at $700^{\circ}C$. The above process was repeated three times. The open porosity of bulk graphite after the final process was 22.25%, 19.86%, and 18.58% in the cases of using the impregnant with viscosity of 25.0 cP, 10.3 cP, and 5.1 cP, respectively.

Hydrogen release during severe accidents poses a serious threat to containment integrity. Mitigating procedures are necessary to prevent global or local explosions, especially in large steel shell containments. The management of hydrogen safety and prevention of over-pressurization could be implemented through a hydrogen reduction system and spray system. During the course of the hypothetical large break loss-of-coolant accident in a nuclear power plant, hydrogen is generated by a reaction between steam and the fuel-cladding inside the reactor pressure vessel and also core concrete interaction after ejection of melt into the cavity. The MELCOR 1.8.6 was used to assess core degradation and containment behavior during the large break loss-of-coolant accident without the actuation of the safety injection system except for accumulators in Beznau nuclear power plant. Also, hydrogen distribution in containment and performance of hydrogen reduction system were investigated.

$1m^3$ hydrate of pure methane can be decomposed to the maximum of $216m^3$ methane at standard condition. If these characteristics of hydrate are reversely utilized, natural gas is fixed into water in the form of hydrate solid. Therefore, the hydrate is considered to be a great way to transport and store natural gas in large quantity. Especially the transportation cost is known to be 18-24% less than the liquefied transportation. In the present investigation, experiments and theoretical calculation carried out for the formation of methane hydrate in NaCl 3.5wt% solution. The results show that the equilibrium pressure in seawater is more higher than that in pure water, and methane hydrate could be formed rapidly during pressurization if the subcooling is maintained at 9K or above in seawater and 8K or above in pure water, respectively. Also, amount of consumed gas volume in pure water is more higher that in seawater at the same experimental conditions. Therefore, it is found that NaCl acts as a inhibitor.

Since the using of heating energy associated with infiltration is significant in a building, the efforts to minimize the infiltration while ensuring minimum ventilation rates for various types of occupancy will be beneficial. In constrast to that many efforts have been made to reduce heat loss by improving thermal resistance of building envelope, little has been tried to reduce heat loss from infiltration. For achieving such an objective, measurement of air leakage rate will be pre-requisite as a diagnostic tool. A blower door system, a depressurization/pressurization method, was employed and it demonstrated a good potential for measuring airtightness performance of residential buildings. Based on the test results, annual energy savings for residential heating was estimated by reducing infiltration to a level of reasonably airtight or to a level of ASHRAE Standard 62-1989 for minimum ventilation.

Leakage of waterworks pipe line net cause loss of water resources, additional foundation of pressurization facilities from pressure loss and soil weakening near leaked pipe line, etc.. This makes it difficult to maintain and manage waterworks pipe line net and so cause serious economic loss. The rate of accounted water can be improved by monitoring always water pressure and flux, and so on. from isolated region, preparing positively against leakage accident and preventing leakage from occurring. Actually after isolating region, average rate of accounted water in this region went up 88.94% by continuously monitoring control of water pressure and inflow rate. It is about 9.44% higher than that of Busan metropolitan city in 2003, 79.5%.
