본 논문은 LPG 엔진의 전자제어센서에 대한 고장사례를 분석하고 고찰한 연구이다. LP가스의 연료 분사량을 컨트롤하는 크랭크 각도센서의 기능이상은 불규칙하고 불균일한 파형형태로 나타나고 있다. 크랭크 각도센서의 노이즈에 관련된 파형은 톱니형의 불규칙한 피크형상으로 나타났고, 2.46V 정도의 노이즈 레벨이 간헐적으로 발생하고 있다. 1번 TDC센서의 내부불량으로 인해 발생한 고장사례는 엔진의 출력을 떨어뜨리고 시동을 간헐적으로 꺼지게 하는 문제점을 초래한다. 산소센서의 성능이상은 센서의 배선에서 연결이 단절되었기 때문에 발생한 것으로 차량의 울컥거리는 현상과 엔진의 부조화 현상이 나타나고 있다. 에어 크리너를 이종품으로 사용한 경우는 신기가 정상적으로 공급되지 못했기 때문에 차량의 가속불량과 엔진의 부조화 현상이 발생하는 원인으로 작용하고 있었다.

이 논문의 목적은 LPG 자동차의 전자제어에 대한 요소의 하나인 액추에이터에 대한 고장사례를 찾아 분석하고 연구하는 것이다. 차량의 연료를 저장하는 봄 내부의 LPG 긴급 차단 솔레노이드 밸브의 필터가 막혀 연료의 공급이 간헐적으로 차단되는 현상이 발생되어 엔진이 작동하는 동안 엔진의 초기시동불량이나 가속이 되지 않는 것을 확인하였다. 엔진 컨트럴 릴레이 부위의 접점부가 가공불량이나 조립불량에 의해 완전한 면접촉이 되지않아 접촉저항이 발생되어 초기 시동을 걸었을 때 시동이 걸렸으나 재시동을 걸 때 시동이 걸리지 않는 현상을 확인하였다. 공회전 조절장치의 내부에 카본이 퇴적되어 액추에이터가 고착되어 흡입공기의 공급이 감소되어 자동차의 시동이 걸려 공회전 상태일 때 엔진의 회전수가 규정 범위를 벗어나 상승과 하락을 반복하는 불안정 상태를 확인하였다.

This study investigates the stress singularity that occurs at the contact edge of three bodies in a frictional complete contact. We use the asymptotic analysis method, wherein we constitute an eigenvalue problem and observe the eigenvalue behavior, which we use to obtain the order of the stress singularity. For the present geometry of three bodies in contact, a contact between a cracked indenter and half plane is considered. This is a typical geometry of the PCMI problem of a nuclear fuel rod. Thus, this paper, specifically presents the characteristics of the PCMI problem from the perspective of stress singularity. Consequently, it is noted that the behavior of the stress singularity varies with the difference in the crack angle, coefficient of friction, and material dissimilarity, as is observed in a frictional complete contact of two bodies. In addition, we find that the stress singularity changes essentially linearly with respect to the coefficient of friction, regardless of the variation in the crack angle and material dissimilarity. Concurrently, we find the order of singularity to be 0.5 at a certain coefficient of friction, irrespective of the crack angle, which we also observe in the crack problem of a homogeneous and isotropic body. The order of singularity can also exceed 0.5 in the frictional complete contact problem of three bodies. This implies that the propensity for failure when three bodies are in frictional complete contact can be even worse than that in case of a failure induced by a crack.

The aim of this review is to communicate some essential knowledge of the underlying mechanism of the corrosion of structural containment alloys during molten salt reactor operation in the context of prospective online monitoring in future MSR installations. The formation of metal halide species and the progression of their concentration in the molten salt do reflect containment corrosion, tracing the depletion of alloying metals at the alloy salt interface will assure safe conditions during reactor operation. Even though the progress of alloying metal halides concentrations in the molten salt do strongly understate actual corrosion rates, their prospective 1^st order kinetics followed by near-linearly increase is attributed to homogeneous matrix corrosion. The service life of the structural containment alloy is derived from homogeneous matrix corrosion and near-surface void formation but less so from intergranular cracking (IGC) and pitting corrosion. Online monitoring of corrosion species is of particular interest for molten chloride systems since besides the expected formation of chromium chloride species CrCl₂ and CrCl₃, other metal chloride species such as FeCl₂, FeCl₃, MoCl₂, MnCl₂ and NiCl₂ will form, depending on the selected structural alloy. The metal chloride concentrations should follow, after an incubation period of about 10,000 hours, a linear projection with a positive slope and a steady increase of < 1 ppm per day. During the incubation period, metal concentration show 1^st order kinetics and increasing linearly with time^1/2. Ideally, a linear increase reflects homogeneous matrix corrosion, while a sharp increase in the metal chloride concentration could set a warning flag for potential material failure within the projected service life, e.g. as result of intergranular cracking or pitting corrosion. Continuous monitoring of metal chloride concentrations can therefore provide direct information about the mechanism of the ongoing corrosion scenario and offer valuable information for a timely warning of prospective material failure.

Opening of fractures induced by shear dilation or normal deformation can be a significant source of fracture permeability change in fractured rock, which is important for the performance assessment of geological repositories for spent nuclear fuel. As the repository generates heat and later cools the fluid-carrying ability of the rocks becomes a dynamic variable during the lifespan of the repository. Heating causes expansion of the rock close to the repository and, at the same time, contraction close to the surface. During the cooling phase of the repository, the opposite takes place. Heating and cooling together with the, virgin stress can induce shear dilation of fractures and deformation zones and change the flow field around the repository. The objectives of this work are to examine the contribution of thermal stress to the shear slip of fracture in mid- and far-field around a KBS-3 type of repository and to investigate the effect of evolution of stress on the rock mass permeability. In the first part of this study, zones of fracture shear slip were examined by conducting a three-dimensional, thermo-mechanical analysis of a spent fuel repository model in the size of 2 km $\times$ 2 km $\times$ 800 m. Stress evolutions of importance for fracture shear slip are: (1) comparatively high horizontal compressive thermal stress at the repository level, (2) generation of vertical tensile thermal stress right above the repository, (3) horizontal tensile stress near the surface, which can induce tensile failure, and generation of shear stresses at the comers of the repository. In the second part of the study, fracture data from Forsmark, Sweden is used to establish fracture network models (DFN). Stress paths obtained from the thermo-mechanical analysis were used as boundary conditions in DFN-DEM (Discrete Element Method) analysis of six DFN models at the repository level. Increases of permeability up to a factor of four were observed during thermal loading history and shear dilation of fractures was not recovered after cooling of the repository. An understanding of the stress path and potential areas of slip induced shear dilation and related permeability changes during the lifetime of a repository for spent nuclear fuel is of utmost importance for analysing long-term safety. The result of this study will assist in identifying critical areas around a repository where fracture shear slip is likely to develop. The presentation also includes a brief introduction to the ongoing site investigation on two candidate sites for geological repository in Sweden.

연료가스의 사용이 늘어나고 고압가스를 사용하는 공정이 날로 대형화$\cdot$복잡화됨에 따라 가스사고도 대형화되는 둥 이를 적절하게 관리할 필요성이 증대되고 있다. '95${\~}$'98년 동안 발생했던 사고를 체계적으로 분류$\cdot$분석하여서 사고 발생에 영향을 미치는 주된 요인을 찾아내었다. 그 결과 사고감소분야에 대해서는 기존의 사고관리정책을 견지하도록 하며 사고가 소폭 감소하거나 증가하는 분야에 대해서는 감소 대책을 제시하였다. '95${\~}$'98년 가스사고는 총 2,027건이며 띨6년 이후 연평균 $12\%$ 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 가스종류별로는 LPG(Liquefied petroleum gas), 도시가스 등 연료가스사고가 $96\%$로서 대부분이며 사용처별로는 주택, 요식업소 등 사용시설에서 주로 사고가 발생했다. 원인별로는 가스의 종류 및 시설에 따라 그 특징이 다르나 시설미비, 제품불량, 및 사용자 취급부주의에 의한 사고가 대부분을 차지하였다. 연료가스에 의한 고의사고는 311건으로 전체가스사고 중 $15\%$를 차지하며 연평균 $38\%$ 증가하는 추세이나 그 발생 매커니즘이 다르므로 향후 좀더 체계적인 분석을 할 필요가 있으며 이번 분석에서 제외하였다.

Flow blockage of the fuel assembly in the lead-based fast reactor (LFR) may produce critical local spots, which will result in cladding failure and threaten reactor safety. In this study, the flow blockage characteristics were analyzed with the sub-channel analysis method, and the circumferentially-varied method was employed for considering the non-uniform distribution of circumferential temperature. The developed sub-channel analysis code SACOS-PB was validated by a heat transfer experiment in a blocked 19-rod bundle cooled by lead-bismuth eutectic. The deviations between the predicted coolant temperature and experimental values are within ±5%, including small and large flow blockage scenarios. And the temperature distributions of the fuel rod could be better simulated by the circumferentially-varied method for the small blockage scenario. Based on the validated code, the analysis of blockage characteristics was conducted. It could be seen from the temperature and flow distributions that a large blockage accident is more destructive compared with a small one. The sensitivity analysis shows that the closer the blockage location is to the exit, the more dangerous the accident is. Similarly, a larger blockage length will lead to a more serious case. And a higher exit temperature will be generated resulting from a higher peak coolant temperature of the blocked region. This work could provide a reference for the future design and development of the LFR.

A lot of parts in FGD (Flue Gas Desulfurization) systems of fossil-fuel power plants show the environments in which are highly changeable and extremely acidic corrosive medium according to time and locations, e.g. in duct works, coolers and re-heaters etc. These conditions are formed when system materials are immersed in fluid that flows on them or when exhausted gas is condensed into thin layered acidic medium to contact materials of the system walls and roofs. These environments make troublesome corrosion and air pollution problems that are occurred from the leakage of the condensed solution. To cathodically protect the metallic structures in extremely acidic fluid, the properties of the protective coatings on the metal surface were very important, and epoxy Novolac coating was applied in this work. On the base of acid immersion tests, hot sulfuric acid decreased the hardness of the coatings and reduced greatly the content of $Na_2O$, $Al_2O_3$, and $SiO_2$ among the main components of the coating. A special kind of CP(Cathodic Protection) system has been developed and tested in a real scale of the FGD facility. Applied coating for this CP system was peeled off and cracked in some parts of the facility. However, the exposed metal surface to extremely acidic fluid by the failure of the coatings was successfully protected by the new CP system.

Most of gas turbines is operated by the type of dry premixed combustion to reduce NOx emission and economize fuel consumption. However this type operation, combustion induced instability brought failure problems cause by high pressure and heat release fluctuations. Though there has been lots of studies since Lord Rayleigh to understand this instability mechanism and control the instabilities, none of them made matters clear. In order to understand the instability phenomena, a simple experimental study with dump combustor was conducted at the moderate pressure and ambient temperature conditions. From this model gas turbine combustor self-excited instabilities at the resonance mode(200Hz) and bulk mode(10Hz) were occurred and observed at the three points of view; pressure, heat release and equivalence ratio which are acquired by peizo-electric transducer, HICCD camera and acetone LIF respectively. From this results we could see the instability mechanism clear with the account of time scale analysis which explained by the propagation of pressure wave to the upward of mixture stream and convectional transfer of the equivalence ratio fluctuation by this pressure fluctuation.

For the past years, higher power rating 2 stroke super long stroke diesel engines having more than 8 cylinders and larger cylinder bore are installed mainly on very large containerships to save on fuel consumption. However, these engines are prone to X-mode vibration due to 2nd node torsional vibration or the X-type moment, particularly because of the increase in total length and height. Recently, cases of excessive X-mode vibration often occurred on engine's major components. This vibration is manifested also as secondary vibration causing failure in engine-mount large structures. This study investigated the excitations caused by the 2nd node propulsion shafting torsional vibration that influence X-mode vibration of the main engine and practical countermeasures are proposed. An 8RT-flex82T 8 cylinder engine and 11S90ME-C 11 cylinder engine for a container ship was used as research model.
