  • In this paper, to systematically assess the abandonment risk of main control room (MCR) fire, fire simulations with Fire Dynamics Simulator were performed and abandonment probabilities were estimated for the MCR bench-board fire of domestic reference nuclear power plant. The fire simulation scenarios performed in this study included propagating and non-propagating fires of the MCR bench-board, and the availability and unavailability of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system (HVACS). The following results were obtained. First, temperature was the major abandonment impact factor for the MCR bench-board fire if the HVACS was available and optical density was that if the HVACS was unavailable. Second, the fire scenario contributing the MCR bench-board fire abandonment risk was identified to be only the propagating fire. Third, it was confirmed that the abandonment probability of the MCR bench-board fire for domestic reference nuclear power plant could be reduced by using the fire modeling.

  • This study presents the development of a lifetime test bench for the strain wave reducer which is a precision gear reducer of the robot to realize fault diagnosis and failure prognostics. To this end, the lifetime test bench was designed to detect the vertical forward/reverse direction rotation load. Through the lifetime test bench, it is possible to apply the same load spectrum from robot working scenarios. We developed a data integration gateway for fault data collection. Through the development of dedicated software for fault diagnosis and failure prognostics, these data from vibration, noise and temperature sensors were collected and analyzed along with the operation of the lifetime evaluation.

  • In order to provide a safe free-weight-training environment to people without workout trainers, we suggest a smart bench press machine with an automatic weight control system sensitive to user tiredness. Physical weight plates on the machine are replaced with a hydraulic cylinder as a press load and the cylinder knob is coupled with a step motor to change its tensile force automatically in-between lifting exercises. Three subjects participated to verify the usability of the smart bench press machine. They were asked to lift a 6-RM press load 10 times with 3 different lifting conditions: 1) no assistance, 2) a human assistance, and 3) the automatic weight control. All subjects were not able to complete the 10 sets without assistance due to tiredness, but they finished the full sets under the two assistive conditions. Average lifting speeds under the automatic weight control condition showed the most consistent level. Normalized quasi-tension data based on surface electromyogram signals of both Pectoralis Majors revealed that the subjects maintained the target muscle activation level above 50% but not more than 80% throughout the 10 sets. Therefore, the smart bench press machine is expected to both keep pace with the lifting exercise and reduce risk of injuries due to excessive muscle tensions.

  • A camera type optical bench system equipped with a lens collimator and an image analyzer is fabricated to measure the equivalent focal length and distortion of lenses. This system is automatized by the computer which controls stepping motors. A nodal slide optical bench system equipped with an off axis reflective collimator is fabricated and improved by using rotating arms and air bearing system. distortion measurement on a wide angle lens using the camera method and the nodal slide method is reported. Defocusing error in the distortion measurement with the nodal slide optical bench is analyzed and improved by iteration method to search the correct image point.

  • Bench Scale급 가스화기를 이용하여 중국 대동탄에 대하여 O2/coal 비, 가스화기 운전 압력에 따른 가스화 특성을 조사하였다. 가스화기를 가압하는 방법으로 메탄과 산소의 버너를 이용하여 운전 압력까지 단시간 내에 가압하는 방법을 정립하였다. 가스화기 압력은 상압으로부터 10기압까지 실험을 실시하였으며, 10기압, 반응온도 1350-140$0^{\circ}C$, O2/coal 비(as-fed 기준) 0.9의 운전조건에서 탄소전환률 90%이상, 냉가스효율 60%, 그리고 heating value 1800 Kcal/N㎥ 정도의 생성가스 특성을 얻을 수 있었다.

  • The importance of CFD work in the process of turbomachinery development has been continuously growing. It is therefore necessary to have some bench marks for validation purposes when any CFD codes are to be developed. In the present study, some public information on centrifugal compressor test results is collected to render useful data for the developers.

  • Three solvent extraction techniques were used to recover waxy tractions from grain sorghum kernels. Yield and chemical composition of the waxy tractions obtained by reflux, bench scale (recirculated solvent), and countercurrent extraction methods were compared. Waxy traction yield from countercurrent extraction (0.200%) was significantly greater (p<0.05) than the yields of wax from both reflux (0.184%) and bench-scale (0.179%) methods. The waxy traction extracted using the bench-scale method showed the greatest relative amount of long-chained (primarily C:28 and C:30) alcohols while the countercurrent-extracted wax showed the greatest relative amount of long-chained fatty acids and fatty aldehydes. Countercurrent extraction removed a higher additive percentage of fatty aldehydes, acids, and alcohols than reflux or bench-scale extraction method.

  • This study describes a problem of the Original Bench Mark which is used currently. We calculate New Mean Sea Level(MSL) in Incheon Port using tide data for 57 months and take 8 points GPS/Leveling data in research area. We calculate orthometric height of one control point using tide data and GPS/Leveling data. After fixed the control point, we decide final orthometric heights using relative geoidal height and ellipsoidal height from GPS survey. To analysis the Original Bench Mark compares final orthometric heights with the orthometric heights in Korea height system. We get the result that the New Original Bench Mark's height is 26.7176m. It appears 3.05cm difference as the Original Bench Mark's height is 26.6871cm in Korea height system.

  • Automatic tool changers(ATCs) store tools used in a machining center to its magazine and changes the tools automatically. Tools of machine centers are changed and then precisely equipped to spindle system by the ATC. Therefore, the stability and reliability of the ATC is very important. But, there is lack of development and evaluation on basic performance and vibration of the ATCs. So, in this study, a BT40 ATC test bench was developed to verify stability and reliability of BT40 ATCs.
