구미 휴브글로벌 AHF 누출사고를 보면서 화학 사고가 우리 사회에 미치는 영향이 얼마나 큰지 경험한 바 있다. 이후로 여러 분야에서 화학 사고에 관한 많은 연구가 수행되고 있다. 사용처에서는 공정 시스템에 대한 개선방안을 찾아 현장에 적용하고자 했고 안전분야에서는 피해 영향 분석을 통한 안전성 향상을 연구하여 비상대응에 적용하여 피해 영향을 줄이고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 이충전 작업 시 일어나는 화학사고에 신속하게 대응할 수 있는 기계적 안전장치를 적용하여 AHF ISO Tank의 안전성을 높이고자 하였다. 연구의 수행으로는 우리나라에 연간 유통되는 AHF의 수입량의 규모와 운반의 수단으로 사용되는 ISO Tank의 운송 물량을 조사하고 AHF ISO Tank의 구조 및 Unloading 절차를 조사하였다. 많은 유형의 탱크로리를 조사하는 과정에서 AHF ISO Tank 구조와 작업 절차가 유사한 염소 탱크로리에 기계적 안전장치인 EFV(과류 방지 밸브)가 설치되어 있는 것을 확인하였다. EFV의 AHF ISO Tank에 적용성과 도입 시 안전기능인 긴급차단에 대한 성능을 휴브글로벌 사고와 2018년에 울산에서 발생한 염소 Tank lorry의 사고사례를 비교 조사하여 실제 사고에서 얻은 자료로 검정할 수 있었다. 사고사례와 적용성 등을 비교한 결과, AHF ISO Tank에 화학사고 피해를 감소시키고 사고를 조기에 수습할 할 수 있는 기계적 안전장치인 EFV를 도입할 것을 제안하며 휴브글로벌 사고와 같은 화학 사고에 도움이 되고자 한다.

The objective of this study was to evaluate of the Tank model in simulating runoff discharge from rural watershed in comparison to the SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) model. The model parameters of SWAT was calibrated by the shuffled complex evolution-university Arizona (SCE-UA) method while Tank model was calibrated by genetic algorithm (GA) and validated. Four dam watersheds were selected as the study areas. Hydrological data of the Water Management Information System (WAMIS) and geological data were used as an input data for the model simulation. Runoff data were used for the model calibration and validation. The determination coefficient ($R^2$), root mean square error (RMSE), Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency index (NSE) were used to evaluate the model performances. The result indicated that both SWAT model and Tank model simulated runoff reasonably during calibration and validation period. For annual runoff, the Tank model tended to overestimate, especially for small runoff (< 0.2 mm) whereas SWAT model underestimate runoff as compared to observed data. The statistics indicated that the Tank model simulated runoff more accurately than the SWAT model. Therefore the Tank model could be a good tool for runoff simulation considering its ease of use.

A C-type LNG mock-up tank was constructed to evaluate the durability of the tank and its structural safety. An experimental strain analysis system equipped with strain gages was designed to investigate the structural behavior of the inner tank at a high hydraulic pressure. In addition, the insulation used in the space between the inner tank and outer tank had a compressive strength and the inner tank thickness of the cylindrical shell and hemisphere was 4.0 mm, which was designed to be thinner than the existing rules. The strains on the inner tank were measured with increasing pressure, and these measurements were compared and analyzed at the strain gage attachment points.

A thermal storage tank with internal heat exchange coils is commonly used in solar thermal systems with a collector area below $100m^2$. The coils are installed in the lower part of the tank because the temperature of the upper part of the tank can drop if the outlet temperature of the collector becomes lower than the upper temperature of the tank, which is a kind of temperature reversal. As an alternative to the well-mixed storage tank with lower coil only, we have proposed a tank with lower and upper coils and have achieved superior thermal stratification in the tank, which results in increased collector efficiency and solar fraction. But, the phenomenon of temperature reversal was often observed in the tank when the load or solar radiation changed rapidly. In the present work, revised control was successfully applied, i.e., to heat only the lower coil using a three way valve if temperature reversal occurs and to operate the collector at a low flow rate when the quality of solar radiation is not good.

The full containment Liquefied Natural Gas(LNG) storage tank is based on a double liquid container concept : two separate containers, one within the other, are capable of containing the LNG. The outer concrete tank provides comer protection(secondary containment) to withstand and safely contain any spill from the inner tank. The comer protection is installed on inside corner surface of outer concrete tank. Because of high and complex stresses, corner protection is designed by ASME section ⅧI Div. 2, Appendix 4 on behalf of API 620 which is main design code for LNG tank. Design guidelines to determine design factors such as liner thickness and knuckle radius are not well understood because Appendix 4 is the design method not based on equation but FEM. Recently, the volume of LNG tank shows a tendency to increase. So it is necessary to set up the design guidelines to cope with change of LNG tank capacity and height/diameter ratio. In this paper, optimum design of corner protection was performed and the design guidelines were suggested by the results of FEM for LNG tanks which have different capacities and height/diameter ratio.

This study was carried out in order to estimate the effect of heat pump performance by use of thermal tank with 3 seperation plates which were able to divide thermal tank into 3 chambers that have different temperatures levels. For testing the effect of developed thermal tank which was installed for supplying the heat to the paprika greenhouse in Jinju city. The volume of thermal storage tank was designed for $110m^3$ which was able to cover 30% of heating capacity. The temperature difference was 3 degree Celcius between high temperature and low temperature when only heating circulation was made from heat pump to thermal tank. but 5.5 degree Celcius difference was made when heating circulation of heat pump to thermal thank and hot water supplying circulation of thermal tank to greenhouse was done simultaneously. As a result of this study showed that COP of heat pump was increased by 15% or more than that of using normal thermal tank because heat pump was able to take 3 ~ 5 degree Celcius lower thermal thank water constantly.

The development of hydrogen vehicles has been actively progressed in the developed countries such as U. S., Japan and Germany. The most important technology of using hydrogen fuel is to develope a compatible storage tank with respect to the fossil fuel tank. Among many storage methods, the liquid hydrogen is the most desirable state because of the lowest volume and weight. The metal hydride tank is too heavy and the compressed hydrogen tank is too bulky. Because of these reasons, it is the principal purpose to analyze the theoretical heat transfer for designing and manufacturing an actual $LH_2$ tank. The insulation methods of the room between inner and outer vessel are non-vacuum, vacuum, vacuum with MLI(Multi-Layer Insulation). According to the results of the numerically calculated heat leak through the walls of the $LH_2$ tank, the vacuum insulated tank has 20 times and the MLI tank has 5616 times less heat leak than the non-vacuum tank.

The objectives of this study were to develop the optimal structures of recirculating aquaculture tank for improving the removal efficiency of solid materials and maintaining water quality conditions. Flow analysis was performed using the CFD (computational fluid dynamics) method to understand the hydrodynamic characteristics of the circular tank according to the angle of inclination in the tank bottom (0°, 1.5° and 3°), circulating water inflow method (underwater, horizontal nozzle, vertical nozzle and combination nozzle) and the number of inlets. As the angle in tank bottom increased, the vortex inside the tank decreased, resulting in a constant flow. In the case of the vertical nozzle type, the eddy flow in the tank was greatly improved. The vertical nozzle type showed excellent flow such as constant flow velocity distribution and uniform streamline. The combination nozzle type also showed an internal spiral flow, but the vortex reduction effect was less than the vertical nozzle type. As the number of inlets in the tank increased, problems such as speed reduction were compensated, resulting in uniform fluid flow.

This paper deals with the buckling behavior of thin-walled aboveground tanks under wind load. In order to do that, the wind pressures are obtained by means of wind-tunnel experiments, while the structural non linear response is computed by means of a finite element discretization of the tank. Wind-tunnel models were constructed and tested to evaluate group effects in tandem configurations, i.e. one or two tanks shielding an instrumented tank. Pressures on the roof and on the cylindrical part were measured by pressure taps. The geometry of the target tank is similar in relative dimensions to typical tanks found in oil storage facilities, and several group configurations were tested with blocking tanks of different sizes and different separation between the target tank and those blocking it. The experimental results show changes in the pressure distributions around the circumference of the tank for half diameter spacing, with respect to an isolated tank with similar dimensions. Moreover, when the front tank of the tandem array has a height smaller than the target tank, increments in the windward pressures were measured. From the computational analysis, it seems that the additional stiffness provided by the roof prevents reductions in the buckling load for cases even when increments in pressures develop in the top region of the cylinder.

일 단위 강우-유출 모형인 SIMHYD와 TANK를 소양강댐과 영천댐 유역에 적용하여 유출을 예측하였다. 7개의 매개변수를 가진 SIMHYD와 17개의 변수를 가진 TANK모형을 국내 유역에 적용하여 모형의 적용성을 비교 평가하였다. 두 모형에 세 가지 목적함수를 달리하여 세 가지의 최적화 방법(유전자 알고리즘, Pattern Search MUlti-Start, Shuffled Complex Evolution Algorithm)을 적용하여 모형과 목적함수에 따른 관측 유출량에 대한 모의유출량의 모의 효율을 비교하였다. TANK모형의 모의 효율이 SIMHYD 모형의 모의 효율에 비해 높게 나타났다. 목적함수를 달리할 경우는 무차원 함수인 Nash-Sutcliffe 계수를 비교하는 것이 모델의 적용성을 평가하는데 적합한 것으로 평가되었다.
