Building energy saving is one of the most important issues in these days. Control algorithm for energy saving should be designed properly to reduce power consumption in building. Recently, building energy system consists of hybrid energy system coupling with RE (Renewable Energy) source. In this paper, an optimum control algorithm for building energy saving is applied to BEMS (Building Energy Management System) by using an outdoor air temperature prediction strategy. BEMS coupling with renewable energy can control HVAC (Heating, Ventilating and Air-Conditioning) system effectively. In order to verify the effectiveness of building energy saving, BEMS was tested for several months at a laboratorial chamber with an air conditioner, fan and heater. To this end BEMS embedded control algorithm has been tested successfully.

An experiment to investigate the natural circulation of a cryogen has been performed. The study is motivated mainly by our recent development of cryogenic cooling system for prototype superconducting cyclotron without any circulating pump. In the natural circulation loop system, a cooling channel is attached on the outer surface of the aluminium block and the liquid nitrogen passes through inside of the channel to cool the block indirectly. A cryocooler as a heat sink is located at the top to re-condense cryogenic vapor coming from the aluminium block in which electrical heater is installed as a heat source. The main dimensions are determined using the relevant analysis and the natural circulation loop is successfully fabricated. The temperature distributions in the loop are measured during initial cool-down process and in steady state, from which the modified Grashof numbers are calculated and compared with the existing correlation estimated with one-dimensional analysis for steady state flow.

An experimental study has been performed on thermal transport from an aluminum foam heat sink under a confined impinging air jet. Three kinds of aluminum foam heat sinks with 10, 20 and 40 PPI and a conventional pin-fin heat sink are tested in the present study. The jet Reynolds number is varied in the range of Re=667～5672 The effect of the confinement disk diameter and the distance between the confinement disk and the heater surface on the averaged Nusselt number is investigated in detail. The results are also compared with those of the unconfined impinging air jet. The critical distance, at which thermal performance shows a minimum compared to the unconfined jet impinging, will be described in terms of the Reynolds number and the pore density of the aluminum foam.

Solar air heaters (SAHs) are simple in design and widely used for solar energy collection devices, and a packed bed is one of typical solar energy storage systems of thermal energy captured by SAHs. This paper presents mathematical modeling and simulation on the thermal performance of various packed bed energy storage systems. A MATLAB program is used to estimate the thermal efficiency of packed bed SAH. Among the various packed bed energy storage systems considered, the wire mesh screen packed bed SAH shows the best thermal efficiency over the entire range of design conditions. The maximum of thermal efficiency of packed bed SAH with wire mesh screen matrices has been found to be 0.794 for Re=2000 - 20000 and ${\Delta}T/I=0.002-0.02$.

포화상태 핵비등과 저 Re수의 흐름비등에서 얻어진 실험결과를 바탕으로 하여, 기포가 성장하는 동안의 등가 기포 직경과 열전단율의 거동에 대한 기포 형상 가정의 효과를 제시하기 위한 해석적인 연구를 수행하였다. 이러한 목적을 달성하기 위하여, 등가 기포 반경이 기포가 성장하는 동안 촬영된 기포의 이미지로부터 얻어질 수 있는 형상 가정을 이용하여 계산되었다. 그리고 열전달율을 포화상태 핵비등 동안 미세크기의 히터와 휘스톤브리지 회로를 이용하여 측정하였다. 그리고, 기포 형상 가정의 효과를 실험결과와 비교하였고, 이를 통해 단일 기포의 성장 거동을 분석하기 위한 기포 형상 가정이 매우 중요함을 보였다.

벤토나이트 완충재에서의 열-수리-역학적 복합거동을 예측하기 위해 TOUGH2-MP/FLAC3D 시뮬레이터를 기반으로 개발된 Barcelona basic 모델(BBM) 해석모듈의 현장 적용성을 검토하고자 국제공동연구 DECOVALEX-2019 Task D에 참여하여 스위스 Grimsel Test Site의 현장시험(full-scale engineered barriers experiment, FEBEX) 모델링을 수행하고 현장시험에서 계측된 히터 파워, 온도, 상대습도, 응력, 포화도, 함수율 그리고 건조밀도를 계산 값과 비교하였다. 수치해석을 이용하여 시간에 따른 히터 파워와 온도 변화는 전반적으로 잘 재현되었지만, 히터 1과 히터 2에서의 파워 차이를 계산할 수는 없었으며 이를 개선하기 위해서는 FEBEX 터널 주변에 분포하는 황반암과 시험장치 및 벤토나이트 블록의 설치 공정을 반영할 필요가 있을 것으로 판단된다. 상대습도 변화와 분포 역시 전반적으로 잘 모사되었으나, 수치해석에서 히터 부근에서의 재포화과정이 상대적으로 빠르게 진행된 것으로 보아 수리모델에 대한 일부 수정이 필요할 것으로 보인다. 현장시험에서는 벤토나이트 완충재와 암반 사이에 틈이 존재하지만 수치해석에서는 완벽하게 접촉하고 있는 것으로 가정하였기 때문에 운영 초기의 응력 변화는 다소 차이를 보였지만, 전반적으로 유사한 경향을 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 해체 이후 측정한 포화도, 함수율, 그리고 건조밀도의 분포 역시 전반적으로 잘 재현되었지만, 건조밀도가 터널 중심과 히터부근에서 조금 크게 계산되어 벤토나이트 블록의 투수계수가 상대적으로 작은 값으로 반영되어 포화도와 함수율이 작게 계산된 것으로 보이며, 이를 개선하기 위해서는 건조밀도에 따른 투수계수 모델에 일부 수정이 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구의 결과를 토대로 수치모델을 수정하고 추가적인 연구를 수행한다면, 보다 나은 해석 결과와 벤토나이트 완충재에서의 THM 복합거동을 좀 더 현실적으로 예측할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The performance of a solar water heater incorporating evacuated tubes was evaluated using a transient simulation program, TRNSYS. Simulations were performed for $60^{\circ}C$ of hot water load temperature and for 280 liter of daily hot water volumes and three 400 liter of storage tank volumes. Three patterns of daily hot water consumption profile were used in the present study (morning, lunch and evening). The results show that the increase in solar fraction depends on the load profile, as well as the collector efficiency coefficient. Hot water draw profile has a large effect on the performance of the SDHWS, the morning load profile has the highest solar fraction. The annual solar fraction of the system, at the weather conditions of Jinju is approximately 84% at lunch load pattern, the 280 kg of load volume, 400 kg of tank volume and the $60^{\circ}C$ of load temperature.

The effect of various pH agents on the corrosion behavior of carbon steel was investigated under a simulated secondary water chemistry condition of a pressurized water reactor (PWR) in a laboratory, and the steel's corrosion performance was compared with the field data obtained from Uljin NPP unit 2 reactor. All tests were carried out at temperatures of $50^{\circ}C-250^{\circ}C$and pH of 8.5 - 10. The pH at a given temperature was controlled by adding different agents. Laboratory data indicate that the corrosion rate of carbon steel decreased as the pH increased under the test conditions and the highest corrosion rate was measured at $150^{\circ}C$. This high corrosion rate may be related to high dissolution and instability of Fe oxide ($Fe_3O_4$) at $150^{\circ}C$. It was also found that an addition of ethanolamine (ETA) to ammonia was more effectivefor anticorrosion than ammonia alone, and that mixed treatment reduced 50% of iron or more at pHs of 9.5 or higher, especially in the steam generator (SG) and the moisture separator & re-heater (MSR).

Due to the transportability problems, long rail shall be from base rail unit, which is normally 100m for regular rail and 300m for high speed rail. After these rail units are transported from the fabricator to the site, the field weld would be performed.axial stresses in the long rail is mainly from the temperature differences at various locations the long rail. Also the gaps between each welds cause secondary axial stresses in the rail. In addition to these, re-welds the fractured rails, rail buckling, irregular rail vibration, rail twist also result innonuniform axial stresses in the rail. To obtain the rail buckling stability, the rail stresses shall be released due to the resetting of CWR. Traditionally two resetting of CWR methods have been applied, the one is rail heater and the other is rail tenser. these methods, the latter has been recommended because it has less limitation in the rail length and it is easier to minimized the force differences. But even in this method, the calculation is cumbersome and is not easy to find out the rail stress distribution itself.refined methodsxial stress resetting in the long rail is studied and this study be easily applied in the real construction. From this approach, more rational rail maintenance system can be expected.
