Midloop 운전중 RHR 기능 상실사고를 모의 실험한 Bethsy 6.9d에 대해 CATHARE2 코드를 이용하여 해석하였다. 이 실험의 초기조건은 계통수위를 고온관 중간까지 낮추고, 그 윗부분은 비응축 가스로 차 있는 midloop 상태를 유지하는 것이다. 잔열은 원자로 정지 2일 후를 가정한 노심출력을 사용하였으며, 계통내 방출유로는 상부의 Upper head vent와 가압기 vent 및 고온관 1에 연결된 Letdown line과 수위지시계 방출유로가 열려 있다고 가정하였다. 또한 세 개의 loop중 증기발생기 한대만 이유 가능하고, 나머지 두 대는 이차측이 공기로 가득 차 있는 상태를 유지하였다. 이 연구의 주된 목적은 midloop 운전중 RHR 기능 상실사고에 대한 위와같은 상태에서 계통의 열수력적 현상을 실험을 통해 이해하고 코드 예측능력을 평가하는 것이다. CATHARE2 코드 계산결과 대체적으로 실험의 현상을 잘 모의하고 있으나 다음 사항에 대해서는 차이를 보이고 있다. 첫째 노심내 물의 혼합을 적절히 모의하지 못하여, 노심내 국부적 증기 발생 시점이 실험에 비해 약 250초 빨리 나타났다. 둘째 노심에서 고온관으로의 물의 유입이 많아 고온관에서 기포율이 실험에 비해 낮게 나타났다. 마지막으로 밀림관(surge line)에서 물의 유입에 의한 압력차가 실험보다 높게 나타났다.

More recently, unsteady flow in small-diameter pipes plays a major role in liquid propellantrocket systems, hydraulic and pneumatic control system, and elsewhere. And it has shown that line dynamics can have a marked effect on the hydraulic system characteristics. In this paper, transfer function of hydraulic lines with an accumulator and an outlet orifice is' developed and compared with experimental data from frequency response tests at various airvolume(V.) and the location of accumulator(ld1t), so that their performance may be correctly and easily predicted and the design of the systems incorporating them improved. The obtained results are as follows: 1. The dynamic response of hydraulic lines may be analyzed more accurately by use of the viscous term(22) in unsteady laminar flow. 2. There was good agreement between the theoretical and experimental results of this investigation, and hydraulic systems with liines included an accumulator can be analyzed more accurately by use of the pressure transfer function given by eq. (16). 3. For the mitigation of surge in hydraulic lines, it is more effective that the location ofaccumulator is close to the pipe outlet side. 4. According to the gas volume of accumulator is increased(the sealing pressure is close tomean line pressure), the damping effect of pressure wave is improved.

Broadband noise with frequency components in the range from several kHz up to tens of MHz is widespread in the AC power line. Noise filter or surge suppressor, often used to suppress the conducted noise, have a poor performance in reducing the common-mode. In this paper, we proposed a lumped-circuit analysis model for Noise Cut Transformer(NCT) which can be used to suppress both the common mode and normal-mode noise. The simulations with our model show a good agreement with experimental results. It has been also shown that our NCT is superior to noise filter and general isolation transformer in reducing the conducted noise.

The thermal stratification phenomena, frequently occurring in the component of nuclear power plant system such as pressurizer surge line, steam generator inlet nozzle, safety injection system (SIS), and chemical and volume control system (CVCS), can cause through-wall cracks, thermal fatigue, unexpected piping displacement and dislocation, and pipe support damage. The phenomenon is one of the unaccounted load in the design stage. However, the load have been found to be serious as nuclear power plant operation experience accumulates. In particular, the thermal stratification by the turbulent penetration or valve leak in the SIS and SCS pipe line can lead these safety systems to failure by the thermal fatigue. Therefore in this study an 1/10 scaledowned experimental rig had been designed and installed. And a series of experimental works had been executed to measure the temperature distribution (thermal stratification) in these systems by the turbulent penetration, valve leak, and heat transfer through valve. The results provide very valuable informations such as turbulent penetration depth, the possibility of thermal stratification by the heat transfer through valve, etc. Also the results are expected to be useful to understand the thermal stratification in these systems, establish the thermal strati­fication criteria and validate the calculation results by CFD Codes such as Fluent, Phenix, CFX.

The switching-mode power converter has been widely used because of its features of high efficiency and small weight and size. These features are brought by the ON-OFF operation of semiconductor switching devices. However, this switching operation causes the surge and EMI(Electromagnetic Interference) which deteriorate the reliability of the converter themselves and entire electronic systems. This problem on the surge and noise is one of the most serious difficulties in AC-to-DC converter. In the switching-mode power converter, the output voltage is generally controlled by varying the duty ratio of main switch. When a converter operates in steady state, duty ratio of the converter is kept constant. So the power of switching noise is concentrated in specific frequencies. Generally, to reduce the EMI and improve the immunity of converter system, the switching frequency of converter needs to be properly modulated during a rectified line period instead of being kept constant. Random Pulse Width Modulation (RPWM) is performed by adding a random perturbation to switching instant while output-voltage regulation of converter is performed. RPWM method for reducing conducted EMI in single switch three phase discontinuous conduction mode boost converter is presented. The more white noise is injected, the more conducted EMI is reduced. But output-voltage is not sufficiently regulated. This is the reason why carrier frequency selection topology is proposed. In the case of carrier frequency selection, output-voltage of steady state and transient state is fully regulated. A RPWM control method was proposed in order to smooth the switching noise spectrum and reduce it's level. Experimental results are verified by converter operating at 300V/1kW with 5%~30% white noise input. Spectrum analysis is performed on the Phase current and the CM noise voltage. The former is measured with Current Probe and the latter is achieved with LISN, which are connected to the spectrum analyzer respectively.

This paper presents the electrical characteristics of metal oxide varistors for lightning surge arresters. ZnO varistors were fabricated with typical ceramic production methods and two types of varistors were also prepared to be compared. The nominal discharge current and line discharge class of those varistors are $10kA(8/20{\mu}s)$ and class 3, respectively. The diameter of varistors manufactured and prepared were in the range of 61.6~65.0mm and the thickness of those were in the range of 27~42.52mm. The reference and residual voltage were tested and reference and residual voltage per 1mm and the ratio of reference and residual voltage were calculated. The reference voltage per 1mm of varistors manufactured was about 175V/mm but that of A's and B's varistors was nearly 200V/mm. The residual voltage exhibited the same trends as the reference voltage, so the reference and residual voltage per 1mm of domestic varistors should be increased. According to the results of tests, it is thought that if the reference and residual voltage per 1mm were increased to 200V/mm and 330V/mm, domestic ZnO varistors would be possible to apply to the station class arresters in the near future.

It is anticipated that AC distribution system can be replaced by DC distribution system in the near future because of the operation of various distributed source or microgrid system. However DC distribution system replacing 22.9kV AC distribution line is not sufficiently studied still. This paper describes lightning overvoltage analysis among many research fields should be studied to realize DC overhead distribution systems. DC distribution system is modeled using EMTP and overvoltage is analyzed according to interval of arrestor location, earth interval of overhead grounding wire and grounding resistance. It is evaluated that analysis results can be effectively used to design of future DC distribution system.

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, when electric train is in dead-section the effect on electric train system was dealt. The feeding system of electrical railway is AC or DC. When the electric train is passed AC feeding system to DC, vice versa or phase is changed in between AC feeding systems, there is a dead section. A dead section usually makes the electrical system complex md may have an adverse effect on the electrical system inside the train. Accordingly, it is important to analyze the effect on trains in dead-section. Modeling an electric train and simulation using PSCAD/EMTDC was accomplished to analyze how power quality problem such as inverter switching surge is propagated to electric train through the feeding line, railway, pantograph.
