In this paper, the unsteady 2-dimensional turbulent flow model for thermal stratification in a pressurizer surge line of PWR plant is proposed to numerically investigate the heat transfer and flow characteristics. The turbulence model is adapted to the low Reynolds number K-$\varepsilon$ model (Davidson model). The dimensionless governing equations are solved by using the SIMPLE (Semi-Implicit Method for Pressure Linked Equations) algorithm. The results are compared with simulated experimental results of TEMR Test. The time-dependent temperature profiles in the fluid and pipe nil are shown with the thermal stratification occurring in the horizontal section of the pipe. The corresponding thermal stresses are also presented. The numerical result for thermal stratification by the outsurge during heatup operation of PWR shows that the maximum dimensionless temperature difference is about 0.83 between hot and cold sections of pipe well and the maximum thermal stress is calculated about 322MPa at the dimensionless time 28.5 under given conditions.

In this paper, the unsteady state calculational model is proposed for the thermal stratification analysis in the feedwater line of the PWR plant. By defining dimensionless parameters in the two-dimensional polar coordinate system and applying SIMPLE algorithm, the temperature and flow profiles due to the thermal stratification are obtained. Base on the fact that the most significant condition occurs when the fluid temperature difference between the piping ends reaches as high as 166.deg. C, the present result shows that max. Dimensionless temperature difference of 0.6 (about l00.deg. C) obtained between hot and cold sections of pipe wall at dimensionless time 47.0.

This paper addresses a numerical method for predicting transient temperature distributions in the wall of a curved pipe subjected to internally thermal stratification flow. A simple and convenient numerical method of treating the unsteady conjugate heat transfer in the non-orthogonal coordinate systems is presented. The proposed method is implemented in a finite volume thermal-hydraulic computer code based on a cell-centered, non-staggered grid arrangement, the SIMPLEC algorithm, a higher-order bounded convection scheme, and the modified version of momentum interpolation method. Calculations are performed for the transient evolution of thermal stratification in two curved pipes, where the one has thick wall and the other has so thin wall that its presence can be negligible in the heat transfer analysis. The predicted results show that the thermally stratified flow and transient conjugate heat transfer in a curved pipe with a finite wall thickness can be satisfactorily analyzed by the present numerical method, and that the neglect of wall thickness in the prediction of pipe wall temperature distributions can provide unacceptably distorted results.

수평배관의 열성층 유동을 완화하기 위하여 아래부분에 Heat Tracing을 한 수평배관의 외부 가열에 의한 열성층 유동과 열전달 특성을 수치적으로 해석하기 위하여 비정상 2차원 모델을 이용하였다. 무차원 지배방정식은 제어체적방법과 SIMPLE 알고리즘을 사용하여 해를 구하였다. Heat Tracing이 있는 수평배관 내부 열성층 유동의 등온선, 유선분포, Nusselt수, 온도 분포를 해석하였다. 무차원 시간 1,500에서 최대 무차원 온도차가 0.424로 계산되어졌고 무차원 시간 9,000 이후에는 열성층 현상이 없어졌다.

In this paper, the steady 2-dimensional model for a long horizontal line with different end temperatures undergoing natural convection at very high Rayleigh number is proposed to numerically investigate the heat transfer and flow characteristics. The dimensionless governing equations are solved by using SIMPLE (Semi-Implicit Method for Pressure Linked Equations) algorithm which is developed using control volumes and staggered grids. The numerical results are verified by comparison with the operating PWR test data. The analysis focuses on the effects of variation of the heat transfer rates at the pipe surface, the thermal conductivities of the pipe material and the thickness of the pipe wall on the thermal stratification. The results show that the heat transfer rate at the pipe surface is the controlling parameter. A significant reduction and disappearance of thermal stratification phenomenon is observed at the Biot number of 5.0$\times$10$^{-2}$. The results also show that the increment of the thermal conductivity and thickness of the wall weakens the thermal stratification and somewhat reduces azimuthal temperature gradient in the pipe wall. Those effects are however minor, when compared with those due to the variation of the heat transfer rates at the surface of the pipe wall.

This paper is aimed at proposing a fuzzy inference mechanism to enhancing the quality of cognitive map-based inference. Its main virtue lies in the two mechanisms： (1) a mechanism for avoiding a synchronization problem which is often observed during inference process with traditional cognitive map, and (2) a mechanism for fuzzifying decision maker's subjective judgment. Our proposed fuzzy inference mechanism (FIM) is basically based on the cognitive map stratification algorithm which can stratify a cognitive map into number of strata and then overcome the synchronization problem successfully. Besides, the proposed FIM depends on fuzzy membership function which is administered by decision maker. With an illustrative B2B negotiation problem, we applied the proposed FIM, deducing theoretical and practical implications. Implementation was conducted by Matlab language.

DEA(Data Envelopment Analysis) is the relative efficiency measure among homogeneous DMU(Decision- Making Units) which can be used to useful tool to improve performance through efficiency evaluation and benchmarking. However, the general case of DEA was considered as unrealistic since it consists a benchmarking regardless of DMU characteristic by input and output elements and the high efficiency gap in benchmarking for inefficient DMU. To solve this problem, stratification method for benchmarking was suggested, but simply presented benchmarking path in repeatedly applying level. In this paper, we suggest a new method that inefficient DMU can choice the optimal path to benchmark the most efficient DMU base on the similarity among the input elements. For this, we propose a route choice method that combined a stratification benchmarking algorithm and SOM (Self-Organizing Map). An implementation on real environment is also presented.

본 논문에서는, 가압경수로 발전소의 가압기 밀림관내 비정상상태의 열성층현상에 대한 계산 모델을 제안하여 배관내의 온도분포, 유동특성 및 열응력에 대해 연구하였다. 경계면이 시간에 따라 변화가 없거나 정상상태에서 개발된 다른 모델과는 달리 본 모델에서는 고온 및 저온유체 사이의 경계면을 시간의 함수로 가정하였다. 열성층현상에 대한 무차원지배방정식은 SIMPLE 알고리즘을 사용하여 해를 구하였다. 본 수치계산의 결과는 주어진 조건하에서 무차원시간이 약 27.0 일 때 배관의 고온부 및 저온부사이의 최대무차원온도차는 0.78정도이었고, 이때의 열성층 현상에 의한 최대 열응력은 276 MPa로 계산되었다.

Dynamic characteristics of thermally-forced stratification process in a square enclosure with a linear temperature profile at the side walls have been investigated through flow visualization experiment and numerical analysis. The experiment was performed on air with the Rayleigh numbers of order $10^5$. A particle tracer method is used for the flow visualization and to obtain a sudden linear temperature profile at the side walls copper blocks which already have a linear temperature profile are come into contact with the thin copper plates of the test section. Immediately a meridional circulation is developed and heat transfer takes place from the wall to the interior region by circulation of fluid and finally a thermal stratification is achieved. In the numerical study, QUICK scheme for convective terms, SIMPLE algorithm for pressure correction, and the implicit method for the time marching are adopted for the integration of conservation equations. Comparison of flow visualization and numerical results shows that the developing flow patterns are very similar in dynamic nature even though there is a time lag due to the inevitable time delay in setting up a linear temperature profile. For high Rayleigh numbers, the oscillatory motion is likely to take place and stratified region is extended. However, initial temperature adjustment process is much slower than that for low Rayleigh numbers.

최근에 여러 분야에서 구축되고 있는 온톨로지는 기계가 이해할 수 있는 지식을 축적하는 것을 목표로 하고 있다. 기계가 온톨로지를 이용하여 정보의 관리 및 해석을 스스로 하는 것이 가능할 것으로 본다. 본 논문에서는 온톨로지의 인스턴스를 구성하는 속성을 기존 웹 문서의 구조정보로부터 추출하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 특히, 속성 정보로 구성하는 도메인 지식을 계층화함으로써 속성 추출 알고리즘을 개선하고, 추출 결과의 품질을 향상시킨다. 2만 문서를 대상으로 제안된 알고리즘을 적용한 결과 약 83%의 신뢰도의 속성 정보를 추출할 수 있었다.
