본 논문에서는 유한체적법을 이용한 수치계산과 이차원수조에서의 유동가시화에 의한 실험적 연구를 통해 평행하게 흐르는 유체 내에 설치된 V-형 연직순환 구조물 주위의 유동현상을 해석하였다. V-형 연직순환 구조물은 성층화되어 연직방향으로 정체된 유동장을 교란하여 섞어주는 역할을 하는 해수유동 제어구조물로서 해상 구조물의 주변에 유동정체로 발생될 수 있는 부영양화 등을 감소시키는 도구로 사용될 수 있다. 판과 판의 사이각(dihedral angle; ${\theta}$), 판의 바닥면에 대한 경사각(inclination angle; ${\phi}$) 그리고 Reynolds 수에 대한 와류두(vortex head) 상승높이의 특성 및 유기속도(induced velocity)의 강도를 비교 검토함으로써 파라미터와 유동특성과의 관계를 살펴보았다. 또한 이를 통해서 연직순환 구조물의 최적형상은 사이각과 경사각이 $90^{\circ}$일 때라는 결론을 얻을 수 있었다.

With an increase in the usage of LNG, there is a heightened interest about its safety aspects regarding the explosion of LNG carrier tank. The need for a cryogenic explosion-proof camera has increased. The camera has to work in cryogenic environment (below $-160^{\circ}C$) in LNG carrier. This study conducted design and heat transfer analysis of cryogenic camera to secure working time in limitation of heat source. The design with gap width of double pane windows was conducted based on simple vertical cavity model to insulate from cryogenic environment. The optimal gap width was 12.5 mm. For effective analysis considering convection within the camera, equivalent thermal conductivity method was adopted with ABAQUS. The working time of the camera predicted was over 10 h at warm-start condition. In cold-start condition, it required about 5 h of pre-warming time to work. The results of analysis were compared with the ones of the actual cryogenic test.

When test tubes for PCM with melting point lower than a room temperature are installed vertically as the T-history method proposes, there exists a temperature distribution in the longitudinal direction by natural convection, which lowers the precision of measured heat-of-fusion. The purpose of the present work is to improve the precision by arranging the test tubes horizontally, while maintaining the simplicity and convenience. Assuming that the amount of heat transfer is very small through the vapor space formed in the upper part of the tubes by volumetric change, the obtained value by the T-history method using the latent heat period bounded by two inflection points is in good agreement with that of the literature. Also, the scattering of measured values by the proposed method decreases markedly compared to that of vertical positioning.

This study has analyzed the convective heat transfer on the deck exposed to the high-temperature impingement exhausting from a VTOL vehicle. The heat flow of the impingement on the deck is modeled by the convection heat transfer. The convective heat flux generated by the hot impinging jet is investigated by using both convective heat transfer formulation and conjugate heat transfer formulation. Computational fluid dynamics(CFD) code was used to compute the heat flux distribution. The RANS equation and the k-e turbulence model were used to analyze the thermal flow of the impinging jet. The heat flux distribution near the stagnation zone obtained by the conjugate heat transfer analysis shows more reasonable than the convective heat transfer analysis.

This study numerically investigates thermal comfort of a space cooled by a floor-supply air-conditioning system, in which three different combinations of supply and return locations, one floor-supply/ceiling-return and two floor-supply/floor-return, are treated. A complementary experiment is performed to validate the present numerical analysis, and the prediction agrees favorably with the measured data. In the numerical procedure, a simplified model mimicking the inlet flow through a diffuser is developed for efficient simulations. The calculated results show that the ceiling-return type is far better in terms of thermal comfort than the floor-return ones within the extent of this study, which seems to be caused by effective vertical penetration of the supply air against natural convection. It is also revealed that the arrangement of port locations in the floor-supply/floor-return system has insignificant effect on the cooling performance. For selecting a proper system, other characteristics including the heating performance should be accounted for simultaneously with the present considerations.

Fire tests were conducted on cables using fire-retardant paint employed in nuclear power plants that transmit electrical power, control and instrument signals. The failure criteria of various power and control cables coated with fire retardant coating at three different coating thicknesses (~0.5 mm, 1.0 mm & 1.5 mm) were studied under direct flame test using Container Fire Test Facility (CFTF) based on standard tests for bare cables. A direct flame fire test was conducted for 10 min with an LPG ribbon burner rated at ten by fixing the cable samples in a vertical cable track. Inner sheath temperature was measured until ambient conditions were achieved by natural convection. The cables are visually evaluated for damage and the mass loss percentage. Cable functionality is ascertained by checking for electrical continuity for each sample. The thickness of cable coating on fire exposure is also studied by comparing the transient variation of inner sheath temperature along the Cable length. This study also evaluated the adequacy of fire-retardant coating on cables used for safety-critical equipment in nuclear power plants.

In the present study, the finite volume method is applied for the thermal performance prediction of the natural ventilation system using vertical solar chimney whereas, design parameters are optimized through the response surface methodology (RSM). The computational simulations are performed for various parameters of the solar chimney such as absorber temperature (40≤T_abs≤70℃), inlet temperature (20≤T₀≤30℃), inlet height of (0.1≤h≤0.2 m) and chimney width (0.1≤d≤0.2 m). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was carried out to identify the design parameters that influence the average Nusselt number (Nu) and mass flow rate (ṁ). Then, quadratic polynomial regression models were developed to predict of all the response parameters. Consequently, numerical and graphical optimizations were performed to achieve multi-objective optimization for the desired criteria. According to the desirability function approach, it can be seen that the optimum objective functions are Nu=25.67 and ṁ=24.68 kg/h·m, corresponding to design parameters h=0.18 m, d=0.2 m, T_abs=46.81℃ and T₀=20℃. The optimal ventilation flow rate is enhanced by about 96.65% compared to the minimum ventilation rate, while solar energy consumption is reduced by 49.54% compared to the maximum ventilation rate.

When analyzing containment thermal-hydraulics, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a powerful tool because multi-dimensional and local analysis is required for some accident scenarios. According to the previous study, neglecting steam bulk condensation in the CFD analysis leads to a significant error in boundary layer profiles. Validating the condensation model requires the experimental data near the condensing surface, however, available boundary layer data is quite limited. It is also important to confirm whether the heat and mass transfer analogy (HMTA) is still valid in the presence of bulk condensation. In this study, the boundary layer measurements on the vertical condensing surface in the presence of air were performed with the rectangular channel facility WINCS, which was designed to measure the velocity, temperature, and concentration boundary layers. We set the laminar flow condition and varied the Richardson number (1.0-23) and the steam volume fraction (0.35-0.57). The experimental results were used to validate CFD analysis and HMTA models. For the former, we implemented a bulk condensation model assuming local thermal equilibrium into the CFD code and confirmed its validity. For the latter, we validated the HMTA-based correlations, confirming that the mixed convection correlation reasonably predicted the sum of wall and bulk condensation rates.

용담댐 저수지에 설치된 대류식 순환장치에 대한 현장 조사 결과에 의하면 수평방향의 직접영향권은 성층 강도에 큰 영향 없이 반지름 $7{\sim}10m$에 이르는 것으로 조사 되었으며 수직방향으로는 성층강도에 따라 또는 가동기간에 따라 조금씩 달라지는 것으로 나타났다. 즉 가동시간이 길어짐에 따라 하층에서 올라온 수온이 낮은 수체는 보다 깊게 먼 곳까지 이동하는 것으로 나타났으나 성층을 깨지는 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 2008년 현장에서 실측 조사한 결과와 CFD모사 결과에 의하면 이런 조건에서 한 달을 가동하면 하층에서 올라온 수체가 대류식 장치 주변으로 수심 8 m, 지름 120 m의 수층을 이루게 되며 50일을 가동하면 수심 10 m, 지름 130m의 수층을 이루는 것으로 평가되었다. 대류식 순환장치가 설치된 지역에 대한 CFD모사를 하기 전에 이 지역의 흐름특성을 평가하였다. 대상 지역의 흐름은 연중 크게 3가지로 구분되었으며 각각의 경우 유량은 다르지만 저수지 수체의 흐름 속도는 모두 $0.05{\sim}1.5cm\;sec^{-1}$로 나타나 CFD모사시에 저수지 흐름을 고려하지 않아도 될 것으로 평가되었다. CFD를 이용한 수체거동 모사결과 순환장치로부터 3m지점에서의 유속은 $0.25m\;sec^{-1}$를 나타냈고, 5m지점에서는 $0.2m\;sec^{-1}$를 나타냈다. 현장 실측 결과와 비교시 유속은 모사 결과가 조금 크게 산정되는 것으로 나타났으나 향후 보다 많은 자료를 확보하여 비교해 보아야 할 것으로 판단되었다. 반면 영향범위는 반경방향으로 10 m지점까지는 직접영향을 받고, 그 보다 먼 지점은 간접영향권임을 나타내고 있어 이는 모사결과와 실측치 간에 일치하는 것으로 나타났다. 수면에서의 온도분포는 순환장치로부터 분출된 저온의 물이 반지름 약 10 m지점까지는 수온변화에 영향을 미치는 직접영향권인 것을 알 수 있다. 이상과 같이 모사 결과는 현장에서 실측한 것과 유사한 결과를 나타내므로 결과의 신뢰성이 높은 것으로 판단되었다.

This study analyzed the synoptic distribution and vertical structure about four cases of precipitation occurrences using NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data and upper level data of winter intensive observation to be performed by National Institute of Meteorological Research at Bukgangneung, Incheon, Boseong during 63days from 4 JAN to 6 MAR in 2012, and Observing System Experiment (OSE) using 3DVAR-WRF system was conducted to examine the precipitation predictability of upper level data at western and southern coastal regions. The synoptic characteristics of selected precipitation occurrences were investigated as causes for 1) rainfall events with effect of moisture convergence owing to low pressure passing through south sea on 19 JAN, 2) snowfall events due to moisture inflowing from yellow sea with propagation of Siberian high pressure after low pressure passage over middle northern region on 31 JAN, 3) rainfall event with effect of weak pressure trough in west low and east high pressure system on 25 FEB, 4) rainfall event due to moisture inflow according to low pressures over Bohai bay and south eastern sea on 5 MAR. However, it is identified that vertical structure of atmosphere had different characteristics with heavy rainfall system in summer. Firstly, depth of convection was narrow due to absence of moisture convergence and strong ascending air current in middle layer. Secondly, warm air advection by veering wind with height only existed in low layer. Thirdly, unstable layer was limited in the narrow depth due to low surface temperature although it formed, and also values of instability indices were not high. Fourthly, total water vapor amounts containing into atmosphere was small due to low temperature distribution so that precipitable water vapor could be little amounts. As result of OSE conducting with upper level data of Incheon and Boseong station, 12 hours accumulated precipitation distributions of control experiment and experiments with additional upper level data were similar with ones of observation data at 610 stations. Although Equitable Threat Scores (ETS) were different according to cases and thresholds, it was verified positive influence of upper level data for precipitation predictability as resulting with high improvement rates of 33.3% in experiment with upper level data of Incheon (INC_EXP), 85.7% in experiment with upper level data of Boseong (BOS_EXP), and 142.9% in experiment with upper level data of both Incheon and Boseong (INC_BOS_EXP) about accumulated precipitation more than 5 mm / 12 hours on 31 January 2012.
