MCFC(molten carbonate fuel cell) power generation system is prime candidate for the utilization of fossil based fuels to generate ultra clean power with a high efficiency. In the MCFC power plant system, a combustor performs a role to supply high temperature mixture gases for cathode and heat for reformer by using the stack off-gas of the anode which includes a high concentration of $H_2O$ and $CO_2$. Since a combustor needs to be operated in a very lean condition and to avoid excessive local heating, catalytic combustor is usually used. The catalytic combustion is accomplished by the catalytic chemical reaction between fuel and oxidizer at catalyst surface, different from conventional combustion. In this study, a mathematical model for the prediction of internal flow and catalytic combustion characteristics in the catalytic combustor adopted in the MCFC power plant system is suggested by using the numerical methods. The numerical simulation models are then implemented into the commercial CFD code. After verifying result by comparing with the experimental data and calibrated kinetic parameters of catalytic combustion reaction, a numerical simulation is performed to investigate the variation of flow and combustion characteristics by changing such various parameters as inlet configuration and inlet temperature. The result show that the catalytic combustion can be effectively improved for most of the case by using the perforated plate and subsequent stable catalytic combustion is expected.

본 연구에서는 비정렬격자계와 체적포착법을 사용하여 표면장력이 지배적인 다상유동의 수치해석 방법을 제시하였다. 먼저 표면장력에 대한 CSF(Continuum Surface Force) 모델을 비정렬격자계에 적용할 수 있도록 수치해석 방법을 확립시켜 Myong(2009)이 개발한 비정렬격자계와 체적포착법을 사용한 수치 해석코드에 삽입하였다. 테스트 문제로 오직 표면장력만이 존재하는 평형상태의 정적(static) 액적 및 비평형상태의 동적(dynamic) 액적 문제에 적용하여, 이 해석방법의 유용성과 정확도를 평가하였다. 연구결과, 매끄러운 곡률 계산을 위해 필요한 필터로 본 연구에서 제안한 Laplacian 필터와 함께 CSF 모델로는 밀도보정(density-scaled)한 CSF 모델이 예측성능이 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 표면장력 계산을 위한 이 모델을 채용한 본 수치해석방법은 표면장력이 지배적인 다상유동인 평형상태의 정적 액적 및 비평형상태의 동적 액적 문제 모두에 대해 정확성과 유용성이 입증되었다.

고정된 격자시스템에서 임의형상의 불투과 경계를 갖는 물체와 유체와 연성해석이 가능한 IB(Immersed Boundary)법이 개발 된 이후로 다양한 CFD 모델에서 IB법의 활용이 증가하고 있다. 기존의 IB법의 대부분은 구조물의 경계면에서 산정되는 유체력으로부터 수치적으로 경계조건을 만족시키는 directing-forcing법이나 구조물 내부에 가상셀을 위치시켜 보간을 통해 경계조건을 만족시키는 ghost-cell법들로 알고리즘이 복잡하다. 본 연구에서는 고정된 격자시스템에서 가동물체형 구조물 해석이 가능함과 더불어 3차원으로의 확장도 용이한 SIB(Simplified Immersed Boundary)법을 제안하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 SIB법은 각 상(phase)의 밀도함수가 국소질량의 중심과 함께 이동하는 것으로 가정한 단일유체모델(one-field model for immiscible two-phase fluid)을 기초로 하였다. 또한 이동하는 고체상태의 구조물을 취급하기 위해 고체의 밀도함수를 이용한 체적가중평균법을 적용하고, 수치확산을 방지하기 위해 이류계산에는 CIP법을 적용하였다. 제안된 SIB법의 해석성능을 검토하기 위해 자유수면으로 낙하하는 물체에 대한 수치모의를 수행하였다. 수치해석결과는 자유수면으로 낙하하는 물체를 양호하게 재현하였다.

현재 경찰과 소방이 범죄신고, 긴급출동과 같은 구조 상황발생 시 통화권영역 내에서는 이동통신 사업자가 구축한 네트워크,와이파이,GPS기반의 긴급 구조용 측위시스템을 활용하여 요구조자의 단말과 직접 연동하여 예상위치를 정밀 측위를 하고 있다. 그러나 산악구조의 경우 조난자가 산악지형의 음영지역에 위치하거나 단말의 방전(power off) 시에는 단말과 직접 연동하여 정밀 측위가 불가능하며 마지막 접속 기지국 정보만을 받고 있어 수색의 위치를 한정할 수 없으므로 구조 골든타임 확보가 어려운 상황이다. 본 논문에서는 개선방안으로 시계열 기지국 정보, 위치정보 및 조난자의 성별, 나이, 행동적 특성을 반영한 이동성 모델과 지능형 추론을 기반으로 하는 전파분석 및 위치추정 시뮬레이션과 같은 이동통신 포렌식 기술을 통해 조난자의 예상 위치정보의 확률에 따른 히트맵 방식의 시각화를 통해 위치정보의 정확성을 높여 소방, 수색대의 수색지역을 축소하여 신속하고 정확한 인명구조에 기여할 수 있기를 기대한다.

In this research we evaluate the excitation homogeneity and SAR of three different Tx arrays after B1+ Shimming in the human body at 3T. Through the simulations, we compared the field properties that are standard deviation and mean value of transverse magnetization for 1) strip line TEM array, 2) rectangular loop array, 3) combined array of strip line element and rectangular loop and shown the utilities of B1+ shimming in human body model. After B1+ shimming, it is evaluated four different types of SAR for body mesh through whole body simulation; those are average, maximum 1-cell, maximum 1-gram, and maximum 10-gram SAR. It appears that in this particular comparison an array based on strip line elements can produce better homogeneity and lower SAR than an array of rectangular loops or an array of combined elements (strip line and loop). While many factors are considered in designing coils for production, it is hoped that methods and results like these will be used in the future to guide decisions and maximize benefit.

In this paper, we analyzed the adjacent channel interference of the LTE band 40 defined by 3GPP on the WLAN system based on the Monte-Carlo method, and found the guard band required for compatibility between the two systems. This study have a difference compared to the previous studies about cell radius was determined using Extended Hata Model considering practical environment, interference protection distance related to guard band, and the spectrum emission mask improvement effect for minimizing the interference. Simulation results, for no channel interference compatibility of LTE and WLAN for mobile satellite wireless package system, we can find the need 15MHz guard band at specified spectrum emission mask and 10MHz guard band at assumed spectrum emission mask.

Background: Experiments with small electrochemical apparatus were previously carried out for detecting low-energy neutrinos under irradiation of reactor neutrinos and under natural neutrino environment. The experimental result indicated that the output current of reactor-neutrino irradiated detector was appreciably larger than that of natural environmental one. Usual interaction cross-sections of neutrinos are quite small, so that they do not explain the experimental result at all. Materials and Methods: To understand the experimental data, we propose that some biological products may generate AV-type scalar field B0, leading to a large interaction cross-section. The output current generation is ascribed to an electrochemical process that may be assisted by weak interaction phenomena. Dissolved oxygen concentrations in the detector solution were measured in this study, for the purpose of understanding the mechanism of the detector output current generation. Results and Discussion: It was found that the time evolution of experimental output current was mostly reproduced in simulation calculation on the basis of the measured dissolved oxygen concentration. Conclusion: We mostly explained the variation of experimental data by using the electrochemical half-cell analysis model based on the DO concentration that is consistent to the experiment.

Device-to-device (D2D) multicast has become a promising technology to provide specific services within a small geographical region with a high data rate, low delay and low energy consumption. However, D2D multicast communications are allowed to reuse the same channels with cellular uplinks and result in mutual interference in a cell. In this paper, an intelligent channel assignment algorithm is designed in D2D underlaid cellular networks with the target of maximizing network throughput. We first model the channel assignment problem to be a throughput maximizing problem which is NP-hard. To solve the problem in a feasible way, a novel channel assignment algorithm is proposed. The key idea is to find the appropriate cellular communications and D2D multicast groups to share a channel without causing critical interference, i.e., finding a channel for a D2D multicast group which generates the least interference to network based on current channel assignment status. In order to show the efficacy and effectiveness of our proposed algorithm, a novel search algorithm is proposed to find the near-optimal solution as the baseline for comparisons. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm improves the network throughput.

In this paper, the energy absorption capability of a novel cruciform composite lattice structure was evaluated through the simulation of compression tests. For this purpose, several test samples of Polylactic acid cellular reinforced with continuous glass fibers were prepared for compression testing using the additive manufacturing method of material extrusion. Using a conventional path design for material extrusion, multiple debonding is probable to be occurred at the joint regions of adjacent cells. Therefore, an innovative printing path design was proposed for the cruciform lattice structure. Afterwards, quasistatic compression tests were performed to evaluate the energy absorption behaviour of this structure. A finite element model based on local material property degradation was then developed to verify the experimental test and extend the virtual test method. Accordingly, different combinations of unit cells' dimensions using the design of the experiment were numerically proposed to obtain the optimal configuration in terms of the total absorbed energy. Having brilliant energy absorption properties, the studied cruciform lattice with its optimized unit cell dimensions can be used as an energy absorber in crashworthiness applications. Finally, a cellular structure will be suitable with optimal behavior in crush load efficiency and high energy absorption.
