As climate change and environmental pollution become one of the biggest global issues today, new renewable energy, especially solar photovoltaic (PV) system, is getting great attention as a sustainable energy source. However, initial investment cost of PV system is considerable, and thus, it is crucial to predict electricity generation accurately before installation of the system. This study analyzes the loss ratio of solar photovoltaic electricity generation from the actual PV system monitoring data to predict electricity generation more accurately in advance. This study is carried out with the following five steps: (i) Data collection of actual electricity generation from PV system and the related information; (ii) Calculation of simulation-based electricity generation; (iii) Comparative analysis between actual electricity generation and simulation-based electricity generation based on the seasonality; (iv) Stochastic approach by defining probability distribution of loss ratio between actual electricity generation and simulation-based electricity generation ; and (v) Case study by conducting Monte-Carlo Simulation (MCS) based on the probability distribution function of loss ratio. The results of this study could be used (i) to estimate electricity generation from PV system more accurately before installation of the system, (ii) to establish the optimal maintenance strategy for the different application fields and the different season, and (iii) to conduct feasibility study on investment at the level of life cycle.

This paper presents the construction results and design of the UNIST Reactor Innovation platform for small modular reactors as a versatile testbed for exploring innovative technologies. The platform uses simulant fluids to simulate the thermal-hydraulic behavior of a reference small modular reactor design, allowing for cost-effective design modifications. Scaling analysis results for single and two-phase natural circulation flows are outlined based on the three-level scaling methodology. The platform's capability to simulate natural circulation behavior was validated through performance calculations using the 1-D system thermal-hydraulic code-based calculation. The strategies for evaluating cutting-edge technologies, such as the integration of a solid oxide electrolysis cell for hydrogen production into a small modular reactor, are presented. To overcome experimental limitations, the hardware-in-the-loop technique is proposed as an alternative, enabling real-time simulation of physical phenomena that cannot be implemented within the experimental facility's hardware. Overall, the proposed versatile innovation platform is expected to provide valuable insights for advancing research in the field of small modular reactors and nuclear-based hydrogen production.

Up to now, Japan has more than 200 corrugated steel web composite beam bridges which are under construction and have been constructed, and China has more than 30 corrugated steel web composite beam bridges. The bridge type includes the simply supported beam, continuous beam, continuous rigid frame and cable stayed bridge etc. The section form has developed to the single box and multi-cell box girder from the original single box and single chamber. From the stress performance and cost saving, the span range of 50~150 m is the most competitive. At present, the design mostly adopts the computational analytical method combining the spatial bar system model, plane beam grillage model and solid model. However, the spatial bar system model is short of the refinement analysis on the space effect, such as the shear lag effect, effective distribution width problem, and eccentric load factor problem etc. Due to the similarity of the plane beam grillage method in the equivalence principle, it cannot accurately reflect the shearing stress distribution and local stress of the top and bottom plates of the box type composite beam. The solid model is very difficult to combine with the overall calculation. Moreover, the spatial grid model can achieve the refinement analysis, with the integrity of the analysis and the comprehensiveness of the stress checking calculation, and can make up the deficiency of the analytical method currently. Through the example verification of the solid model and spatial grid model, it can be seen that the calculation results for the stress and the displacement of two models are almost consistent, indicating the applicability and precision of the spatial grid model.

스프링클러 설비의 설계방법은 크게 3가지로 분류한다. 가지관을 서로 연결하여 사다리형태로 배관을 설치하는 Grid형과 가지관은 연결하지 않고 교차배관만을 연결하는 Loop형 그리고 가장 일반적으로 사용되는 Tree형이 있다. 이 중 Grid형은 아주 간단한 것을 제외하고는 컴퓨터프로그램으로 마찰손실을 계산하여야 하지만 Loop형의 경우는 프로그램의 도움 없이 설계자가 직접 계산하여 마찰손실에 따른 필요압력과 소요유량을 산출할 수 있다. Loop형 설비의 경우 소화수 공급이 2방향으로 분리되어 마찰손실이 작아지고 헤드간 방출압력의 차이가 Tree형보다 작게 되어 살수분포가 우수하게 되며 작은 마찰손실에 의한 소구경의 배관을 사용하여 자재비와 인건비가 절감되므로 Loop형에 의한 스프링클러의 설계가 Tree형 설비에 비해 성능과 경제성에서 우수한 설계 방법이다. 하지만 Loop형 설비의 설계는 설계방법이 잘 알려져 있지 않아 거의 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 논문에서는 Tree형 보다 우수한 Loop형 설비의 설계방법을 설명하여 많은 설계자가 성능과 경제면에서 우수한 Loop형 설계를 쉽게, 널리 사용하게 하고자 하였다.

As an advanced study on the method of calculating the target revenue water ratio of local waterworks through the leakage component analysis method proposed by Kim et al. (2022), this study developed a model to calculate the achievable revenue water ratio within the specified project cost, the required project cost to achieve the specified target revenue water ratio, and the economically appropriate target revenue water ratio level by considering the leakage reduction cost and leakage reduction benefit for each revenue water ratio improvement strategy, and conducted an applicability evaluation of the developed model using actual field data. The procedure for calculating the target revenue water ratio of local waterworks considering economics proposed in this study consists of three stages: physical data linkage model construction, leakage component analysis, and economic analysis, and the applicability was evaluated for Zone H with branch type and the Zone M network type. As a result of the application, it was calculated that approximately 32.5 billion won would be required to achieve the target revenue water ratio of 70% in the Zone H, and approximately KRW 10.5 billion would be required to achieve the target revenue water ratio of 75% in the Zone M. If the business scale of Zones H and M was corrected to 10,000 m³/day of water usage, the required project cost for a 1% improvement in the revenue water ratio of Zone H was calculated to be 0.7642 billion won and 0.4715 billion won for Zone M.

In this study, we analyzed how the revenue water ratio(RWR) is affected by changes in conditions of the water supply area, such as the ratio of aging pipes, maintenance conditions, and revenue water. As a result of analyzing the impact of pipe aging and maintenance conditions on the RWR, it was confirmed that the RWR could be decreased if the pipe replacement project to improve the aging pipe ratio was not carried out and proper maintenance costs were not secured. It was also confirmed that an increase in the revenue water could be operated to facilitate the achievement of the project's target RWR. In contrast, a decrease in the revenue water due to a population reduction could affect the failure of the target RWR. In addition to analyzing the causes of variation in the RWR, the calculation of estimated project costs was considered by using leakage reduction instead of RWR from recent RWR improvement project cost data. From this analysis, it was reviewed whether the project costs planned to achieve the target RWR of the RWR improvement project in A city were appropriate. In conclusion, the RWR could be affected by variations in the ratio of aging pipes, maintenance conditions, and revenue water, and it was reasonable to consider not only the construction input but also the input related to RWR improvement, such as leakage reduction, when calculating the project cost.

국내 철근콘크리트공사 현장에서는 철근량을 산출하기 위해 2D도면을 이용하여 복잡한 식을 사용한다. 내역서상의 철근 내역이 전체 철근량으로 작성되는 것을 고려했을 때, 현행 철근량 산출방식은 다소 비효율적이라고 판단된다. 이에 본 연구는 공공청사, 학교, 공동주택 각 유형별 10개의 프로젝트에 실적데이터를 바탕으로, 콘크리트량 대비 철근량 비율을 산출하여 사례를 검증하였다. 연구결과 AACE가 제시한 상세견적 단계의 정확도 범위 안에 포함되었으며, 프로젝트 전체 철근량은 상세견적 단계 오차율범위에도 포함 되는걸 확인할 수 있었다. 향후 부재별 유형에 따라 적용할 수 있는 보정 값을 산출하여 오차범위를 줄여 부재별 철근 산출량 오차율이 상세견적단계에서도 적용이 가능한 연구가 필요하다고 판단된다.

Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) as a delivery method fully capitalizes on an integrated project team that takes advantage of the knowledge of all team members to maximize project outcomes. IPD is currently the highest form of collaboration available because all three core project stakeholders, owner, designer and contractor, are aligned to the same purpose. Compared with traditional project delivery approaches such as Design-Bid-Build (DBB), Design-Build (DB), and CM at-Risk, IPD is distinguished in that it eliminates the adversarial nature of the business by encouraging transparency, open communication, honesty and collaboration among all project stakeholders. The team appropriately shares the project risk and reward. Sharing reward is easy, while it is hard to fairly share a failure. So the compensation structure and the contingency in IPD are very different from those in traditional delivery methods and they are expected to encourage motivation, inspiration and creativity of all project stakeholders to achieve project success. This paper investigates the compensation structure in IPD and provides a method to determine the proper level of contingency allocation to reduce the risk of cost overrun. It also proposes a method in which contingency could be used as a functional monetary incentive when established to produce the desired level of collaboration in IPD. Based on the compensation structure scenario discovered, a probabilistic contingency calculation model was created by evaluating the random nature of changes and various risk drivers. The model can be used by the IPD team to forecast the probability of the cost overrun and equip the IPD team with confidence to really enjoy the benefits of collaborative team work.

본 연구는 가축분뇨 처리시설의 평가 및 최적 선택의 의사결정에 있어서, 시설물은 내구성이 있는 자산이므로 내용연수 전 기간에 걸친 비용측면에서의 경제성이 고려되어야 하는 바, 이를 위하여 LCC (Life Cycle Cost) 기법의 적용 가능성을 검토하고자 수행하였다. 경제성의 비교 분석을 위해 양돈 분뇨 1일 100톤 처리규모의 공동자원화시설 설치 공법들 중 4개 공법에 대한 시설투자 및 연간 운영비를 조사하였는데, 초기 투자비는 2,699~3,202 백만원 수준으로 T 공법이 가장 높았고 E 공법이 가장 낮았다. 연간 운영비에 있어서는 378~498 백만원 수준으로 T 공법, J 공법, E 공법, B 공법 순으로 유리한 것으로 조사되었다. LCC 분석을 위해 한국은행 및 통계청의 10년간 ('00~'09) 자료를 이용하여 이자율 (4.7%), 물가상승율 (3.13%), 실질 할인율 (1.52%)를 기준하고, 현가계수 산정을 위해 내용연수를 토목 건축 (30년), 기계 (10년), 전기계장 (15년) 으로 기준하였다. 이를 바탕으로 한 분석 결과, 톤당 운영비로 보면 17,570~18,998원/톤 수준으로서 E공법이 17,570원/톤으로 가장 낮은 반면, B 공법이 20,661원/톤으로 가장 높아 상대적으로 가장 비경제적이었다. 특히 초기투자비가 높더라도 연간 운영비가 낮은 T 공법이 초기투자비는 T 공법보다 낮으나 연간 운영비가 상대적으로 높은 B 공법에 비해 LCC가 낮게 평가되었다. 따라서 가축분뇨 처리시설의 경제적 측면에서의 공법 선택에 있어서는 초기시설투자비 또는 연간 운영비 중 어느 한쪽만 평가하여 결정하기 보다는 LCC 분석을 적용하여 평가하는 것이 합리적임을 알 수 있다. 또한 경제성 분석에 있어서, 불확실성에 따른 LCC 분석 결과의 변화를 파악하기 위해 '00~'09년 간의 할인율 변동폭을 적용하여 민감도분석을 실시한 결과, 변동범위 안에서 변화하더라도 각 대안별 비용우위에 대한 변화는 달라지지 않아 안정적이라고 할 수 있다. 따라서 LCC를 이용한 경제성 평가는 가축분뇨 처리시설의 선택을 위한 의사결정에 유용한 평가 지표가 될 수 있으리라 판단된다. 향후 분석의 신뢰성 제고와 활성화를 위해서는 각 비용요소들에 대해 공신력 있는 데이터베이스 구축이 대단히 중요하며, 아울러 시설평가 시 정성적인 요인도 고려할 수 있는 연구가 추가적으로 이루어져야 할 것이다.
