In this study, the effects of selecting water/silver nanofluid as both a coolant and a reactivity controller during the first operating cycle of a light water nuclear reactor are investigated. To achieve this, coupled neutronic-thermo-hydraulic analysis is employed to simulate the reactor core. A detailed VVER1000/446 reactor core is modeled in monte carlo code (MCNP), and the model is verified using the porous media approach. Results show that the maximum required level of silver nanoparticles is 1.3 Vol.% at the beginning of the cycle; this value drops to zero at the end of cycle. Due to substitution of water/boric acid with water/Ag nanofluid, reactor operation time at maximum power extends to 357.3 days, and the energy generation increases by about 27.3%. The higher negative coolant temperature coefficient of reactivity in the presence of nanofluid in comparison with the water/boric acid indicates that the reactor is inherently safer. Considering the safety margins in the presence of the nanofluid, minimum departure from nucleate boiling ratio is calculated to be 2.16 (recommendation is 1.75).

The reactions between organic halides$(CCl_4,\;C_6H_5Br,\;C_6H_5Cl,\;C_6H_5I)$ and amines $(C_6H_5NH_2,\;R_2NH,\;R_3N,\;(CH_2)_5NH,\;pyridine)$ were studied under mixed u.v. irradiation. The modes of reactions were examined by means of gas chromatography and product-reactant ratio determination. The reaction of $CCl_4$ with amines give chloroform and hexachloroethanes, and the reaction of aromatic halides with amines gave biphenyl and benzene. In each series of reaction there obtained mainly corresponding amine hydrohalides, but no amination products. The reactivity was in the order of the basicity of amines and of the reactivity of organic hahides, except in the case of cyclic tertiary amine. The result was interpreted as a non-chain photodecomposition process. A competitive proton abstraction reaction path via the formation of a change transfer complex was proposed as the reaction mechanism.

An analysis for Steam Line Break (SLB) events which result in a return-to-power conditions after reactor trip was performed for a postulated Yonggwang Nuclear Power Plant Unit 3 cycle 8. Analysis methodology for post-trip return-to-power SLB is quite different from that of a no return-to-power SLB and is more complicated. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an methodology to analyze the response of the NSSS parameter and the fuel performance for the post-trip return-to-power SLB events. In this analysis, the cases with and without offsite power were simulated by crediting 3-D reactivity feedback effect due to local heatup around stuck CEA and compared with the cases without 3-D reactivity feedback with respect to fuel performance, departure from nucleate boiling ratio (DNBR) and linear heat generation rate (LHGR).

In order to determine the monomer reactivity ratio in copolymerization of acrolein, the copolymerization of acrolein with styrene, methyl methacrylate and vinyl acetate respectively was studied. The Q and e value of acrolein in each copolymerization were also calculated from those of monomer reactivity ratios, but the calculated values were slightly different from each other. The Q and e of acrolein for the system of acrolein-styrene copolymerization were Q = O.64 and e = O.62 respectively. Relations among the Q and e value, the composition and structure of copolymers and the mean sequence length in copolymerization were also discussed for acrolein copolymers.

To enhance the performance of SEWGS system by holding the WGS catalyst in a SEWGS reactor, a spring type bed insert was developed. In this study, effects of operating variables such as steam/CO ratio, gas velocity, syngas concentration on CO conversion were investigated in a fluidized bed reactor using the spring type bed insert to hold the WGS catalyst as tablet shape. CO conversion increased initially as the steam/CO ratio increased. But further increment of the steam/CO ratio caused decreasing of CO conversion because of increment of gas velocity and decrement of syngas concentration. Moreover, CO conversion decreased as the gas velocity increased and the syngas concentration decreased at the same steam/CO ratio. Continuous operation up to 48 hours (2 days) was carried out to check reactivity decay of WGS catalyst supported by spring type bed insert. The average CO conversion was 99.04% and we could conclude that the WGS reactivity at those conditions was maintained up to 48 hours.

This paper presents results on $CO_2$ gasification of 17 raw coals containing a wide range of volatile matter (21-57 wt%). The gasification is performed using a TGA under $CO_2$ and also under $N_2$ atmosphere. An amount of weight loss with increasing temperature is proportional to that of volatile matter in a coal under $N_2$ atmosphere. Reactivity of $CO_2$ gasification also increases with a content of volatile matter. However, the correlation is a little scattered. Oxygenated functional groups in a coal are generally reactive and therefore, an increase in O/C ratio leads to enhanced reactivity. However, $CO_2$ reactivity is affected by neither H/C ratio nor a content of ashes that possibly activate the gasification reaction. These findings are also applicable to steam coal gasification and the reactivity series are confirmed in the test at a fixed bed reactor.

The $SO_2$ reduction using CO and $H_2$ over Sn-Zr based catalysts was performed in this study. Sn-Zr based catalysts with Sn/Zr molar ratio (0/1, 1/4, 1/1, 2/1, 3/1, 1/0) were prepared by the precipitation and co-precipitation method. The effect of the temperature on the reaction characteristics of the $SO_2$ reduction with a reducing agent such as $H_2$ and CO was investigated under the conditions of space velocity of $10,000ml/g_{-cat.}h$, $([CO(or\;H_2)]/[SO_2])$ of 2.0. As a result, the activity of Sn-Zr based catalysts were higher than $SnO_2$ and $ZrO_2$. The reactivity for the $SO_2$ reduction with CO was higher than that with $H_2$, and sulfur yield in the $SO_2$ reduction by $H_2$ was higher than that by CO. The reactivity for the $SO_2$ reduction with $H_2$ was increased with the reaction temperature regardless of Sn-Zr based catalyst with a Sn/Zr molar ratio. $SnO_2-ZrO_2$ (Sn/Zr=1/4) had highest activity at $550^{\circ}C$, in the $SO_2$ reduction with $H_2$ and $SO_2$ conversion of 94.4％ and sulfur yield of 66.4％ were obtained at $550^{\circ}C$. On the other hand, in the $SO_2$ reduction by CO, the reactivity was decreased with the increase over $325^{\circ}C$. At the optimal temperature of $325^{\circ}C$, $SO_2$ conversion and sulfur yield were about 100％ and 99.5％, respectively, in the $SO_2$ reduction over $SnO_2-ZrO_2$ (Sn/Zr=3/1). Also, the $SO_2$ reduction using syngas with $CO/H_2$ ratio over $SnO_2-ZrO_2$ (Sn/Zr=2/1) was performed in order to investigate the application possibility of the simulated coal gas as the reductant in DSRP. As a result, the reactivity of the $SO_2$ reduction using syngas with $CO/H_2$ ratio was increased with increasing the CO content of syngas. Therefore, it could be known that DSRP using the simulated coal gas over Sn-Zr based catalyst is possible to be realized in IGCC system

With the variation of Cr content and $N_2$ flow ratio, the soft magnetic properties, corrosion resistance and reactivity of the sputtered nanocrystalline FeZrCrN thin flims were investigated. In case of FeZrCrN thin films, a saturation magnetization was decreased with increasing $N_2$ flow ratio. In addition, good soft magnetic properties were obtained at the flow ratio of 3% $N_2$. The $Fe_{64.9}Zr_{8.8}Cr_{5.8}N_{20.5}$ nanocrystalline thin film after annealing at $550^{\circ}C$ exhibited the saturation magnetization of 12.5kG, low coercivity of 0.4 Oe and high permeability of 2600 at 5 MHz. Films containing up to 7.5% Cr showed an enhanced corrosion resistance and reduced reactivity with the bonding glass without degradation of soft magnetic properties, although the saturation magnetization was decreased slightly with the Cr addtion.

In this study, $V_2O_5/TiO_2$ catalyst was measured reactivity of ethanol when vanadia ratio was increasing. First, $V_2O_5/TiO_2$ catalyst was prepared to the increasing vanadia ($VO_x$) ratio as 0.2, 1, 10 wt%. And we were used X-ray diffraction (XRD), then not appear markedly peak to pure vanadia about XRD analysis. So we were decided vanadia that was evenly dispersed on $TiO_2$. Result about temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) analysis was obtained 3 reactions that was dehydrogenationfrom obtained to acetaldehyde, dehydration from obtained to ethylene, condensation from obtained to diethyl ether. If vanadia ratio was increasing in $V_2O_5/TiO_2$, reactions temperature of ethanol was known lower. And condensation into diethyl ether is quenched away with increasing vanadia loading. In addition, competition between reductive dehydration and oxidative dehydrogenation occurs, while the selectivity toward dehydrogenation is favored with increasing vanadia loading.
