Liquid metal-cooled reactors use various passive safety systems driven by natural circulation. Investigating these safety systems experimentally is more advantageous by using a simulant. Although numerous experimental approaches have been applied to natural circulation-driven passive safety systems using simulants, there has been no clear validation of the similarity law. To validate the similarity law experimentally, SINCRO-V experiment was conducted using Wood's metal and water for simulant of the Wood's metal. A pair of SINCRO-V facilities with length-scale ratio of 14.1:1 for identical Bo' was investigated, which was the main similarity parameter in temperature field simulation. In the experimental range of 0.2-1.0% of decay heat, the temperature distribution characteristics of the small water facility were very similar to that of the large Wood's metal facility. The temperature of the Wood's metal predicted by the water experiment showed good agreement with the actual Wood's metal temperature. Despite some error factors like discordance of Gr' and property change along the temperature, the water experiment predicted the Wood's metal temperature with an error of 27%. The validity of the similarity law was confirmed by the SINCRO-V experiments.

When a molten corium is relocated in a lower head of a reactor vessel, the ERVC (External Reactor Vessel Cooling) system is actuated as coolant is supplied into a reactor cavity to remove a decay heat from the molten corium during a severe accident. To achieve this severe accident mitigation strategy, the two-phase natural circulation flow in the annular gap between the external reactor vessel and the insulation should be formed sufficiently by designing the coolant inlet/outlet area and gap size adequately on the insulation device. For this reason, one-dimensional natural circulation flow tests were conducted to estimate the natural circulation flow under the ERVC condition of APR1400. The experimental facility is one-dimensional and scaled-down as the half height and 1/238 rectangular channel area of the APR1400 reactor vessel. As the water inlet area increased, the natural circulation mass flow rate asymptotically increased, that is, it converged at a specific value. And the circulation mass flow rate also increased as the outlet area, injected air flow rate, and outlet height increased. But the circulation mass flow rate was not changed along with the external water level variation if the water level was higher than the outlet height.

산업단지나 아파트 단지 내에 수로나 연못을 이용한 친수공간의 시설이 일반화 되어가고 있다. 단지내 친수공간의 계획에서는 시설의 종류, 배치, 수원, 수질 물 순환계획 등을 검토하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 지방산업단지 내에 친수공간을 계획하는데 몇 가지 대안을 설정하고 이러한 검토항목에 대하여 비교 검토하여 가장 합리적인 대안을 선정하였다. 본 단지 내의 친수시설은 단지의 중앙부를 가로지르는 수로를 기본으로 하여 공원과 분수연못을 배치하는 것으로 하였다. 수원은 단지 옆을 흐르는 강, 단지 상류의 저수지, 단지 내 지하수 및 상수도를 고려할 수 있으며, 각각에 대하여 수량, 수질, 물 순환 방식, 인허가, 유지관리 등을 비교하였다. 친수시설은 돌과 자갈 등의 자연재료를 이용하여야 한다. 사람이 유량감을 느끼기 위하여 수로내의 평균수심은 10 cm, 평균유속은 0.15 m/s 정도로 한다. 여러 대안의 비교 검토한 결과, 강과 저수지는 사용허가와 수질관리가 어렵고 상수도는 물값이 비싸기 때문에 지하수를 사용하고, 상하류부에 저수조를 설치하고 펌프로 순환시키는 시스템이 가장 적합한 것으로 조사되었다.

연구는 월지(안압지)의 수질 관리 문제를 유지용수의 순환 체계와 연관지어 접근하였다. 이를 위해 연못의 순환체계와 관련 깊은 입·출수 체계를 검토하였으며, 기존의 입·출수시설 외에 선행 연구에서 제기되었던 추정 입·출수시설을 분석하였다. 입수시설을 검토한 결과, 현재 입수구인 월지 동남측 호안 입수시설은 남북 담장을 사이에 두고 동편의 정원시설(경석, 곡수로, 저수시설)과 수로로 연결된 것으로 파악되었다. 월지 동편 조사에서 별도의 시설군이 있었던 것으로 보이며 1920년대 실측 도면에 경석군이 확인된 것이 이를 뒷받침한다. 추정 입수구인 남서측 호안 입수시설은 월지 서편 건물지 임해전(臨海殿) 터에 남아 있는 화강암 수로와 연관성이 있어 보인다. 월지 남서측 호안을 향해 경사가 낮아지고, 거름망을 꽂았던 홈, 1920년대 실측 도면과 1975년 측량 도면의 입수구에 경석이 배석되어 있는 것으로 보아 깨끗한 물을 입수시키기 위한 것으로 판단된다. 출수시설과 관련하여 북측 호안 출수시설은 총 5단계로 구성되어 있는데, 이 중 목제 수로와 장대석군 집수시설의 기능은 월지의 물을 배수하기 위한 시설만으로는 보이지 않는다. 목제 수로에 나무 물마개가 있는 점과 마지막 단계에 집수시설이 있는 점으로 미루어보아 상황에 따라 발천의 물이 역으로 입수될 수 있다고 판단된다. 즉 북측 호안 출수시설은 양방향으로 물이 드나들었으며 장대석군 집수시설을 통해 개폐 가능한 목제 수로로 입수되기도 한 것으로 판단된다. 추정 출수구인 서측 호안 출수시설은 북측 호안의 출수시설과 매우 유사함을 볼 때 신라시대에 존재하였거나 후대의 어느 시점에 북측 호안 출수시설을 모방하여 만들었을 것이라는 추정 외에는 어려운 실정이다. 다만 조선시대 어느 시점까지는 농업용수 공급을 위한 출수시설로 기능하였을 것으로 보인다. 이상과 같이 월지는 신라 왕경 중심부인 동궁의 시설과 유기적으로 얽혀 있는 체계화된 배수망에 의해서 입·출수가 이루어졌다. 이를 통해 월지를 비롯한 각 시설군에 물이 입수되었으며 왕경 중심부의 중요한 인공 하천인 발천(撥川)을 통해 남천(南川)으로 연결되는 배수 체계를 가지고 있었다.

This research studied the characteristics of the customer circulation in four department store food court restaurants located in Seoul. The characteristics of the customer circulation are the following: Before customers leave the dining space where they eat food, they come and go to spaces such as the water purifier space, the napkin storage, and the cup storage. On the other hand, they do not come and go from the dining space to the waste area or the area where used cups are returned. Therefore the spaces, that need to be located very near the dining space, are the water purifier space, the cup storage, and the napkin storage. The waste area does not have to be placed very near the dining area and the area where used cups are returned is not needed. A minority of customers drink water and use napkins after going to the waste area and the area where dirty dishes are kept. To prevent these customers from going against the circulation of the majority of customers, a water purifier space, a cup storage, and a napkin storage should be placed additionally connecting to the waste area and the area where dirty dishes are kept. For effective circulation plan and spatial composition of food court restaurants, these characteristics of customer circulation should be considered. It is not recommended to place the water purifier space, the napkin storage, and the cup storage, the waste area or the area where used cups are returned, and the hand cleansing facility in the same location just for the convenience of workers.

A two-phase natural circulation test using SMART integral test loop (SMART-ITL) was conducted to explore thermo-hydraulic phenomena of two-phase natural circulation in the SMART reactor. Specifically, the test examined the natural circulation in the primary loop under a stepwise coolant inventory loss while keeping the core power constant at 5% of the scaled full power. Based on the test results, three flow regimes were observed: single-phase natural circulation (SPNC), two-phase natural circulation (TPNC), and boiler-condenser natural circulation (BCNC). The flow rate remained steady in the SPNC, slightly increased in the TPNC, and dropped abruptly and maintained in the BCNC. Using a natural circulation flow map, the natural circulation characteristic in the SMART-ITL was compared with those in pressurized water reactor simulators. In the SMART-ITL, a BCNC regime appeared instead of siphon condensation and reflux condensation regimes because of the use of once-through steam generators.
