실제 기체 상태 방정식에 대한 이론적 원리가 조사되었으며 초임계 조건을 포함한 다양한 압력과 온도 조건에서 액체 로켓 엔진의 추진제로서 사용되는 산소, 수소, 메탄의 열역학적 상태량에 대하여 비교 연구되었다. 또한 이상 기체 상태 방정식을 적용하였을 경우와 실제 기체 상태 방정식(SRK 상태 방정식과 PR 상태 방정식 및 ECS 원리)을 적용하였을 경우의 열역학적 상태량에 대한 비교 연구가 수행되었다. 단일 성분이 액상인 영역에서의 열역학적 상태량 차이가 관찰되었으며 오차 범위에 대한 결과가 고찰되었다.

액체 로켓 및 항공용 엔진 연료로서 사용되는 케로신의 열역학적 상태량을 연구하기 위해 surrogate 모델이 조사되었다. 초임계 조건에서 실제 기체 상태 방정식(SRK 상태 방정식, PR 상태 방정식)과 NIST SUPERTRAPP(ECS 원리)을 이용하였을 경우의 밀도 분포가 기존의 실험 결과와 비교되었다. 또한 surrogate 모델의 종류에 따른 열역학적 상태량의 오차 범위에 대한 고찰이 수행되었다. 탄화 수소 계열 연료에 대해서는 PR 상태 방정식과 ECS 원리가 높은 정확도를 나타내지만 압력, 온도와 같은 작동 환경에 따라 적절한 surrogate 모델을 선별하여 선택해야 함을 확인하였다.

An experimental study on the preparation of monolithic porous polymers by environmentally friend process in supercritical carbon dioxide has been carried out. Polymerization mixture composed of a cross-linking monomer, initiator and functional co-polymer was charged in the reactor with sapphire window. After the system was purged with a flow of $CO_2$ for 15 min, the reactor was pressurized with liquid $CO_2$ up to 100 bars. The reactor was isolated from and placed back to the system via quick connector for shaking until the mixture had become fully homogeneous. The reactor was then heated and pressurized to the required reaction conditions and left overnight. After cooling and $CO_2$ evacuation, the polymer was removed from the reactor as dry, white, continuous monoliths. The effect of experimental conditions on the physical properties of porous polymer was systematically examined, and it was found that monomer content had a major effect on the physical properties of the polymers.

The inactivation of spores of Penicillium oxalicum by supercritical carbon dioxide ($SC-CO_2$) was optimized by response surface methodology. The optimal inactivation conditions of 16.8 MPa, $49^{\circ}C$, and 20 min were determined using ridge analysis, at which the predicted and experimental $log_{10}$ reductions were obtained as 5.74 and 6.12, respectively. The synergistic effect of a cosolvent (ethanol), which was used to modify $SC-CO_2$, on the inactivation of the fungal spores was investigated. At less severe conditions of 10 MPa and $40^{\circ}C$, P. oxalicum spores of $10^7$ CFU/ml were completely inactivated within 45 min by $SC-CO_2$ modified with ethanol.

Supercritical carbon dioxide ($SCO_2$) extraction was investigated as a method for protein-sourcing material from squid viscera. To find the optimum conditions, the extraction of squid viscera using $SCO_2$ was performed under the conditions of temperature range from 35 to $45^{\circ}C$ and constant pressure 25 MPa using Hewlett-Packard 7680T. Also from result of SDS-PAGE, the protein denaturation was minimized when using $SCO_2$ extraction. And the major amino acids in the squid viscera were glutamic acid, aspartic acid, lysine, leucine, arginine, alanine, glycine, isoleucine, and valine. The main fatty acids from squid viscera were myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, heneicosanoic acid, palmitoleic acid, elaidic acid, oleic acid, eicosenoic acid, EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid).

A model combustor has been designed and fabricated for studying the combustion characteristics of oxygen (O₂)/hydrogen (H₂) flames under supercritical conditions. The combustor is designed to allow combustion experiments up to 60 bar, the supercritical pressure condition of O₂ and H₂. Injectors can be replaced to study various types of flames and the combustion chamber is designed to visualize flames by installing optical windows. Through the preliminary tests, including a high-pressure (up to 60 bar) test using air and combustion tests for coaxial jet flames of liquid oxygen (LO₂)/gaseous hydrogen (GH₂) at elevated pressure, the reliability of the combustor has been demonstrated.

An experimental loop operating with water at supercritical conditions(25MPa, $600^{\circ}C$ in the test section) is designed for operation in the research reactor LVR-15 in UJV Rez, Czech Republic. The loop should serve as an experimental facility for corrosion tests of materials for in-core as well as out-of-core structures, for testing and optimization of suitable water chemistry for a future HPLWR and for studies of radiolysis of water at supercritical conditions, which remains the domain where very few experimental data are available. At present, final necessary calculations(thermalhydraulic, neutronic, strength) are being performed on the irradiation channel, which is the most challenging part of the loop. The concept of the primary and auxiliary circuits has been completed. The design of the loop shall be finished in the course of the year 2007 to start the construction, out-of-pile testing to verify proper functioning of all systems and as such to be ready for in-pile tests by the end of the HPLWR Phase 2 European project by the end of 2009.

The use of Supercritical Fluids(SCF) has been proposed for numerous power cycle designs as part of the Generation IV advanced reactor designs, and can provide for higher thermal efficiency. One particular area of interest involves the behavior of SCF during a blowdown or depressurization process. Currently, no data are available in the open literature at supercritical conditions to characterize this phenomenon. A preliminary computational analysis, using a homogeneous equilibrium model when a second phase appears in the process, has shown the complexity of behavior that can occur. Depending on the initial thermodynamic state of the SCF, critical flow phenomena can be characterized in three different ways; the flow can remain in single phase(high temperature), a second phase can appear through vaporization(high pressure low temperature) or condensation(high pressure, intermediate temperature). An experimental facility has been built at the University of Wisconsin to study SCF depressurization through several diameter breaks. The preliminary results obtained show that the experimental data can be predicted with good agreement by the model for all the different initial conditions.

Supercritical water has great potential as a coolant for nuclear reactor. Its use will lead to higher thermal efficiency of Rankine cycle. However, in certain conditions heat transfer may get deteriorated which may lead to undesirable high clad surface temperature. It is necessary to estimate the operating conditions in which heat transfer deterioration (HTD) will take place, so as to establish thermal margins for safe reactor operation. In the present work, the heat flux corresponding to onset of HTD for vertically upward flow of supercritical water in a pipe is obtained over a wide range of system parameters, namely pressure, mass flux, and pipe diameter. This is done by performing large number of simulations using an in-house CFD code, which is especially developed and validated for this purpose. The identification of HTD is based on observance of one or more peak/s in the computed wall temperature profile. The existing correlations for predicting the onset of HTD are compared against the results obtained by present simulations as well as available sets of experimental data. It is found that the prediction accuracy of the correlation proposed by Dongliang et al. is best among the existing correlations.

The carbon dioxide properties change sharply near the critical or pseudo-critical point in the heat transfer processes. The reduction in turbulent, convective heat transfer parameters observed in some supercritical data and in experiments with common gases can be due to property variation, acceleration, buoyancy or combinations of these phenomena, depending on the conditions of the applications. In this study, the measurement for the secondary flow driven by buoyancy was carried out on the supercritical carbon dioxide turbulent flows in the different boundary condition with the constant mass flow rate. The available measuring techniques were used to clarify the behaviour of any supercritical fluid. Laser Doppler Velocimeter (LDV) and a special device was used to measure the secondary velocity and turbulent characteristics of the supercritical flows.
