Carbon Monoxide(CO) poisoning accident is higher than any other gas accident in the rate of deaths/incidents. In the last five years, 36 people died and 104 were wounded because of carbon monoxide poisoning accident. Most of these CO poisoning accidents were caused by defective exhaust tube in the old gas boiler and multi-use facility. In this study, the spread of incomplete combustion gas(CO) released from leakage hole of exhaust tube was analyzed by computational flow modeling and concentration measuring test. CO gas leaked form exhaust tube in a building was highest concentrated near the ceiling and formed the circular currents along the walls. Through these experiments and simulation, the reasonable installation location of carbon monoxide alarm was made certain and suggested.

최근 5년간 국내 가스사고 중 CO중독사고는 사망 36명, 부상 79명이 발생하였으며, 전체 가스 사고에 비해 인명피해율이 8배나 높게 나타나고 있다. 이러한 CO중독사고의 대부분이 노후 가스보일러 및 다중 가스 사용시설의 배기통 불량에 의한 가스누출사고로 조사되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 실험을 통해 건축물 내 보일러실의 배기통 불량에 의한 CO가스의 누출확산 메커니즘을 해석하였다. 배기통에서 누출된 CO 가스는 건축물 내부의 천정부근에서 가장 높은 농도분포를 보인다. 또한 CO경보기 설치 실험을 통해서 천정부근의 CO경보기가 가장먼저 작동하고, $30{\sim}40$분 경과한 후에 바닥 및 중간에 설치된 경보기가 작동하는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통해 CO경보기의 적정 설치위치를 확인하였으며, 이 결과를 토대로 건출물내 CO경보기 설치위치를 제안하였다.

Mean concentrations of ammonia gas released as a tracer from an isolated low-rise building have been measured and predicted. Predictions were calculated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and two dispersion models: a diffusion model and a Lagrangian particle tracking technique. Explicit account was taken of the natural variation of wind direction by a technique based on the weighted summation of individual steady state wind direction results according to the probability density function of the wind direction. The results indicated that at distances >3 building heights downstream the weighted predictions from either model are satisfactory but that in the near wake the diffusion model is less successful. Weighted solutions give significantly improved predictions over unweighted results. Lack of plume spread is identified as the main cause of inaccuracies in predictions and this is linked to inadequate resolution of flow features and mixing in the CFD model. Further work on non-steady state simulation of wake flows for dispersion studies is recommended.

최근 ESS(전기저장장치)의 보급이 늘어나면서 ESS에 의한 지속적인 화재발생으로 인명 및 재산의 피해 또한 급증하고 있다. ESS에 활용되는 우레탄 샌드위치 패널에 제조에 있어 난연 성능의 향상이 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 연질 폴리우레탄 폼의 난연 특성을 구현하고자 제품의 물성을 변화시키는 이소시아네이트 관능기 파라미터의 변화로 인한 제품의 조직 치밀도가 화재성능에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 우레탄 조직의 치밀도를 변화시켜가며 제품을 제작하여 연소성능 시험, 가스유해성 시험, 연기밀도 시험을 진행하였다. 그 결과 총 방출열량은 이소시아네이트 관능기 그룹이 높은 경우 성능이 우수하고, 최대 열 방출율과는 상관이 없는 것을 확인하였다. 이소시아네이트 관능기 그룹의 값이 2.7이상에서 형상의 붕괴를 방지할 수 있었다. 가스유해성 시험에서는 이소시아네이트 관능기 그룹이 상대적으로 높아 조직이 치밀하면서 탄화 막 형성이 용이한 Char시스템용 난연제가 추가적으로 투입되어야 성능이 상승하였고, 연기밀도 시험에서는 이소시아네이트 관능기 그룹의 값이 2.75이상에서 성능이 증가되는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 본 연구의 결과로 기존에 사용되던 저렴한 우레탄 샌드위치 패널을 대체할 난연제 개발에 기반을 마련할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

BACKGROUND: Water quality is of concern to water utility operators, public health officials, and populations using the water. If any contaminant is released from a point of entry, it could be spread rapidly throughout the water stream. So the identification of the location of the points of entry and its release history are critical informations to establish the management strategy.METHODS AND RESULTS: Aniline, nonylphenol, pentachlorophenol and formaldehyde in 39 surface water samples were analysed using Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) methods. Formaldehyde, aniline and nonylphenol were mainly detected in the near sites where industrial waste water and domestic sewage were discharged into stream. But pentachlorophenol was detected in the downstream samples where pulp manufacturing plants were operated.CONCLUSION: Results indicate that pentachlorophenol found in main stream of Guem river was mainly introduced from pulp manufacture industries. Otherwise, formaldehyde, aniline and nonylphenol were mainly contaminated from the industrial waste water and domestic sewage.

For the dissemination of new and renewable energy, Korean government introduced a renewable portfolio standard (RPS) scheme in 2012 after terminating feed-in tariff (FIT) scheme that was introduced in 2004. With the RPS scheme, 64.7% of its own goal (95.7% in PV and 63.3% in non-PV) was achieved in 2012 and 67.2% of that (94.9% in PV, 65% in non-PV) was achieved in 2013. The deployment of PV systems met the goal very well and that of non-PV did not. Recently, Korean government revised the target year of supplying 10% electricity from new and renewable energy from 2022 to 2024 and released a couple of measures on PV area. Recent studies showed that the bankability of a project plays a key role for PV dissemination. Therefore, the dissemination should be assessed from the point of bankability under the RPS scheme and a little adjustment is necessary to achieve the goal. Especially, installing a small size PV (<100 kwp) system needs a minimum REC price or a FIT scheme. In non-PV area, permission process is a common bottleneck and the related regulation should be eased. In addition, to achieve the long term goal, an implementing scenario has to be prepared. Currently, the portion of the waste-gas energy originated from fossil fuel is too large among the new and renewable energy sources and the portion should be lowered or eliminated in the 10% of electricity supply goal. Seoul Metropolitan Government (SMG) has its own FIT scheme for PV dissemination from 2014 SMG and revised the PV tariff from 50 to 100 won/kwh in effective of 2015. It is worth to spread the other provinces.

본 연구에서는 장대터널 화재 시 발생하는 스모크의 거동특성을 파악하기 위해 축소모형실험을 실시하였다. Froude 상사를 기초로 실제 터널을 1/50로 축소한 20 m 의 아크릴 터널 모형을 제작하였으며, 파라핀 기체로 만든 스모크를 터널 내부에 주입시킴으로써 20MW의 실제 화재를 모사하였다. 실험에서 화재 발생 약 2분 후에 스모크는 부력효과의 감소로 아래로 하강하였으며, 제트팬 가동 전까지 4분 동안 스모크는 약 90 m를 이동하였다. 제트팬이 가동되고 기류속도가 임계속도 (도로터널 화재 중 발생하는 스모크의 역기류를 제압하기 위한 최소 공기속도)에 가까워질수록 스모크의 제어가 효율적으로 이루어지며, 스모크의 분포는 화원에서 약 3 m 정도로 더 이상 탈출 방향으로의 스모크 전파가 이루어지지 않았다. 하지만, 제트팬 가동 초기에 스모크의 제어가 거의 이루어지지 않음을 보였고 오히려 이 단계에서 탈출자의 호흡선 차단 등의 위험요소가 내재되어 있음을 알 수 있었다.
