The top and bottom nozzles of PWR fuel assembly are connected by guide thimbles and an instrumentation tube that are connected with spacer grids. The fuel rods are inserted into the each cell of spacer grids. The loads acting on the fuel assembly are transmitted to the guide thimbles through the flow plate of top nozzle The axial loads applied to the fuel assembly are not equally distributed among the guide thimble due to the geometry of the top nozzle flow plate and spacer grid. In this study, the load concentration factors for the $17\times17$ fuel assembly were calculated. The analytical model fur the calculation of the load concentration factor of top nozzle flow plate was developed using ANSYS 5.6. The finite element analyses were performed using the model composed of top nozzle, guide thimble, and spacer grid. And, the analysis results were compared with the test results.

상부 탑재형 노내계측기(TM-ICI) 개발은 원자로하부헤드 대신 원자로상부헤드로 계측기를 삽입함으로써 중대사고 위험을 줄이기 위해 진행 중이다. 이 개발 과제의 일환으로, NUREG/CR-6909와 Code Case N-761의 두 방법에 따라 TM-ICI 노즐에 대한 환경피로평가가 수행되었다. TM-ICI 노즐은 level A, level B 및 시험 조건에서의 과도조건에 따른 하중을 받는데 이에 대해 피로평가를 해야 한다. 원자로냉각재환경이 고려된 TM-ICI 노즐의 누적사용계수는 1이하로 평가되었고, 이는 ASME Code 허용기준을 만족한다.

This paper presents the fabrication and performance inspection of a peristaltic micropump by flow simulation. The valve-less micropump using the diffuser/nozzle is consists of base plate, mid plate, top plate and connection tubes fur inlet and outlet. In detail, the base plate is composed of two diffuser nozzles and three chambers, the mid plate consists of a glass diaphragm for the volumetric change of the pumping chamber. The inlet and outlet tubes are connected at the top plate and the actuator fur pressing the diaphragm is located beneath the top plate. The micropump is fabricated on the silicon wafer by DRIE (Deep Reactive ion Etching) process. The pumping performances are tested by the pneumatic test rig and compared with the simulated results fur various dimensions of diffuser nozzles. The pumping characteristics of the micropump by the volumetric change at the pumping chamber is modeled and simulated by the commercial software of FLOW-3D. The simulated results shows that reverse flow is the inherent phenomena in the diffuser nozzle type micropump, but it can be reduced at the dual pumping chamber model.

Experimental study was conducted to increase the oxygen transfer efficiency of air diffusers in clean water. By measuring the bubble size from the bubbly two-phase flow visualization with several air diffusers the size of air bubbles near the top surface of aeration tank seems to be independent on the diffuser types. Considering design parameters for the better breakup of larger bubbles around the air diffusers, advanced conceptual air diffusers using nozzle-type throat showing the higher oxygen transfer efficiencies were made.

육묘장의 두상관수장치는 균일하게 관수되어야 모종도 균일하게 성장한다. 본 연구에서는 부채꼴 분사노즐을 이용한 두상관수장치의 노즐 설치위치에 따른 관수상태를 조사하여 균일관수방법을 구명하였다. 살수량은 주행속도에 반비례하였고, 관수균일도는 노즐과 관수면과의 거리에 큰 영향을 받으며 주행속도의 영향은 없었다. 단일노즐에 의한 두상관수인 경우 노즐 끝에서 관수면이 60cm 이상 멀어질수록 관수균일도가 향상되며, 연속노즐에 의한 두상관수인 경우 관수면이 노즐분사 각도의 2차 교차점에 위치할 때 관수균일도가 가장 좋은 것으로 나타났다. 두상관수장치의 균일관수를 위해서는 작물의 머리높이가 분사노즐의 2차교차점에 일치하도록 노즐의 위치를 정해야 하며 작물의 자람에 따른 노즐대 놀이를 조절해 주는 것이 바람직한 것으로 판단된다.

In order to provide the mechanism of nozzle clogging, recovered nozzles for high strength steel grade were examined carefully after continuous casting. The thickness of clogged material in SEN is increased in the following order: from the bottom to the top of the nozzle, upper part of slag line, and the pouring hole. Nozzle clogging material begins to form due the adhesion of metal to nozzle wall, the decarburization, and reduction of oxide in the refractory by Al and Ti in the melt. The reduction of oxide in the refractory by Al and Ti improves the wettability of the melt on the refractory and forms a thin Al-Ti-O layer. Metal containing micro alumina inclusions is solidified on the Al-Ti-O layer, and the solid layer grows due to the heat evolution through the nozzle wall. Thermodynamic calculation has been made for the related reactions. The effect of superheat to the nozzle clogging is discussed on ultra low carbon steel and low carbon steel.

The FD process is analogous to the direct piston extrusion process where the cold feed filament acts as a piston extruding the molten filament from the heated liquefier through a nozzle. The extruded filament is deposited on top of futureless platform, where the liquefier and the nozzle move in X and Y direction control by computer based on the part geometry. After the first layer, the Z platform indexes down and the next layer get deposited on top of the first layer. the layer by layer building process introduces surface problem. This paper describes effect of slice interval of the parts built by fused deposition modelling rapid prototyping system.

Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the effective managerial factors influencing dose reduction of the nozzle dam installation and removal tasks ranking within top 3 in viewpoint of average collective dose of nuclear power plant maintenance job. Background: International Commission on Radiation Protection (ICRP) recommended to reduce unnecessary dose and to minimize the necessary dose on the participants of maintenance job in radiation fields. Method: Seven sessions of nozzle dam installation and removal task logs yielded a multiple regression model with collective dose as a dependent variable and work time, number of participants, space doses before and after shield as independent variables. From the sessions in which a significant reduction in collective dose occurred, the effective managerial factors were elicited. Results: Work time was the most important factor contributing to collective dose reduction of nozzle dam installation and removal task. Introduction of new technology in nozzle dam design or maintenance job is the most important factor for work time reduction. Conclusion: With extended task logs and big data processing technique, the more accurate prediction model illustrating the relationship between collective dose reduction and effective managerial factors would be developed. Application: The effective managerial factors will be useful to reduce collective dose of decommissioning tasks as well as regular preventive maintenance tasks for a nuclear power plant.
