The design of Prototype Gen-IV Sodium-Cooled Fast Reactor (PGSFR) has been developed and the validation and verification (V&V) activities to demonstrate the system performance and safety are in progress. In this paper, the current status of test activities is described briefly and significant results are discussed. The large-scale sodium thermal-hydraulic test program, Sodium Test Loop for Safety Simulation and Assessment-1 (STELLA-1), produced satisfactory results, which were used for the computer codes V&V, and the performance test results of the model pump in sodiumshowed good agreement with those in water. The second phase of the STELLA program with the integral effect tests facility, STELLA-2, is in the detailed design stage of the design process. The sodium thermal-hydraulic experiment loop for finned-tube sodium-to-air heat exchanger performance test, the intermediate heat exchanger test facility, and the test facility for the reactor flow distribution are underway. Flow characteristics test in subchannels of a wire-wrapped rod bundle has been carried out for safety analysis in the core and the dynamic characteristic test of upper internal structure has been performed for the seismic analysis model for the PGSFR. The performance tests for control rod assemblies (CRAs) have been conducted for control rod drive mechanism driving parts and drop tests of the CRA under scram condition were performed. Finally, three types of inspection sensors under development for the safe operation of the PGSFR were explained with significant results.

A hydraulic breaker is widely utilized for many civil engineering areas for the purpose of destroying objects such as rocks, concrete, or road. However, since the high-level noise and vibration by a hydraulic breaker is one of the major sources of environmental noise and recently the environmental regulations on construction equipments are also getting more strengthened, in order to solve such problems, it is certainly necessary to design and develop a hydraulic breaker with low noise and low vibration. This research is to understand the noise characteristics through the noise test and acoustic analysis of the bracket housing in a hydraulic breaker and to identify the element part to be modified based on the result of the element contribution analysis. An improved breaker model including X-typed rib shows the result of low-noise level within target frequency band compared with a commercial breaker model.

균열 암반내 지하수 흐름은 공간적으로 불규칙하게 분포하는 균열 발달 상태에 영향을 받으므로 균질의 등방성 피압 대수층에 적용이 가능한 Theis식으로는 균열 암반 대수층의 수리지질학적 특성을 똑바로 이해할 수 없다. 본 연구에서는 지하수 흐름의 프락탈(Fractal)모델을 발전시킨 누수를 포함하는 프락탈모델의 이론적은 배경 및 수리상수 산출 방법을 제시하고,개발된 모델을 야외자료에 적용시켰다. 상기 모델은 홍천과 유성지역에서 수행된 양수시험 자료에 적용시킨 결과, 동일한 수리상수 값으로 양수정과 관측정에서의 관측된 수위하강 곡선과 이론적인 수위하강 곡선이 잘 일치하는 결과를 얻었다. 홍천 지역과 유성 지역의 시험공 주위의 프락탈 차원은 1.9로 구해졌으며, 이것은 이들 지역의 지하수 흐름이 2차원보다 약간 작은 프락탈 차원을 보인다는 것을 지시한다.

An optimal hydraulic section is critical for irrigated water conservancy in seasonal frozen ground due to a large proportion of water leakage, as investigated by in-situ surveys. This is highly correlated with the frost heave of underlain soils in cold season. This paper firstly derived a practical model for frost heave of clayey soils, with temperature dependent thermal indexes incorporating phase change effect. A model test carried out on clay was used to verify the rationality of the model. A novel approach for optimizing the cross-section of irrigation canals in cold regions was suggested with live updated geometry characterized by three unique geometric constraints including slope of canal, ratio of practical flow section to the optimal and lining thickness. Allowable frost heave deformation and tensile stress in canal lining are utilized as standard in computation iterating with geometry updating while the construction cost per unit length is regarded as the eventual target in optimization. A typical section along the Jinghui irrigation canal was selected to be optimized with the above requirements satisfied. Results prove that the optimized hydraulic section exhibits smaller frost heave deformation, lower tensile stress and lower construction cost.

일반적으로 균열암반 매질은 수리전도도 혹은 그 난수장이나(연속체 모형), 투수성 균열의 공간적 통계적 분포(불연속균열망 모형)를 이용하여 표현할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 잘 알려진 균열암반매질의 개념 모형의 실질적 적용성을 검토하기 위하여 충청남도 금산군 남이면 남이자연휴양림 내 한국지질자원연구원 시험부지 내에서 다양한 현장 수리 시험을 적용하고, 그 결과를 비교검토하였다. 본 지역에서 투수성 구간의 수리전도도 값은 $7.67{\times}10^{-10}{\sim}3.16{\times}10^{-6}$ m/sec이며, 산술평균은 $7.70{\times}10^{-7}$ m/sec, 기하평균은 $2.16{\times}10^{-7}$ m/sec이다. 단공 패커 시험의 경우 총 8개의 공에서 총 110개 구간에 대한 시험을 수행하였다. 이 시험 구간 중 불투수성 구간은 총 9개, $1.0{\times}10^{-8}$ m/sec 이하의 수리전도도를 가지는 저투수성 구간은 총 14개로 전반적으로는 투수성이 양호한 것으로 확인되었다. 단공 패커시험을 통해 나타난 수리전도도의 수직적 분포는 단공 유향 유속 시험 결과와 비교적 잘 부합하는 양상으로 나타나고 있다. 하지만, 공간 수리시험의 결과는 전반적으로 투수성이 양호하다는 단공 시험 결과와는 다소 다른 양상을 보인다. 공간시험의 결과는 투수성보다는 연결성을 포함한 균열암반 매질의 투수성/불투수성의 이진법적 특성에 의해 더 큰 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 균열암반 매질에서의 지하수 유동에 대한 개념 모형의 현실적이고 합리적인 설정을 위해서는 투수성/불투수성의 이진법적 특성에 대해 어떻게 규명할 것인가에 대한 조사방법과 해석방법에 대한 지속적인 연구가 요구된다.

Traditional forms of river and coastal structures have become very expensive to build and maintain, because of the shortage of natural rock. Geotextile tubes hydraulically or mechanically filled with dredged materials have been applied in hydraulic and coastal engineering in recent years(shore protection structure, detached breakwater, groins and jetty). Recently, new preliminary design criteria supported by model and prototype tests, and some stability analysis calculations have been studied. In this study, the numerical analysis was performed to investigate the behavior of geotextile tube with various properties of geotextile and hydraulic pumping conditions. Numerical analysis was executed to compare with the results from the large-scale field model tests, and also compared the results of 2-D plane strain analysis and 3-D FEM analysis. A geotextile tube was modeled using the commercial finite element analysis program ABAQUS and the one-quarter of tube was modeled. Behavior of geotextile tube during the hydraulic pumping procedure was analyzed by comparing the large-scale field model test and numerical analysis. The shape variation and maximum tube height between the numerical analysis results and large-scale filed test results are turned out to be a good agreement.

도시지역의 2차원 모형은 홍수침수과정에 있어서 아직 선구적인 분야이며 이러한 모형은 지형 및 불충분한 지형계수 및 자료로 인하여 제한적으로 이용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 도시지역의 DEM에 기초한 제방 붕괴로 인한 표면수의 침수를 재현하고자 한다. 도시지역에 있어서 표면수의 흐름은 Saint-Venant의 방정식을 통해 모형을 구성하였다. 2002년 삼척시에서 발생한 홍수를 재현하기 위하여 추적자를 이용한 수리모형실험을 수행하여 모형을 보정하였다. 본 연구는 향후 홍수지도 제작이나 도시지역에서 침수에 따른 경제적 손실을 평가하는데 유용하게 이용될 것이다.

An analysis model is developed using a commercial software 'simulationX' for designing hydraulic-pneumatic system of heave compensator for offshore drilling operations. Reliability verification of the analysis model for the test equipment of 1/5 scale compensator was conducted by comparing test results and simulation results. An analysis of full scale heave compensator is developed on the basis of verified a model. Then, the results of simulation were analyzed to obtain following conclusion. The displacement of crown block about excitation input amplitude (${\pm}3,000mm$) of the steward platform using a 'simulationX' is attenuated under ${\pm}35mm$, and the compensation rate is 98.7%. In this study, goal of a compensation rate is more than 95%. The previously results are satisfied with the objectives of compensation rate.

This paper deals with the design, manufacturing and test evaluation of a hydrostatic bearing applied to a hydraulic model turbine. The design parameters of a hydrostatic bearing, considering machining and assembly tolerances, and recommended values of design parameters are presented. Also the simple design procedure of a hydrostatic bearing by utilizing the reference results is proposed. In order to illustrate the utility and validity of the proposed design procedure, two hydrostatic bearings are manufactured and test evaluation of these bearings are performed. In results, the proposed design procedure can be utilized as an effective tool at the initial design screen of a hydrostatic bearing. However, the 2D bearing governing equation should be solved to obtain the optimal design of a hydrostatic bearing.

자갈 입자로 구성된 다공성매질에서는 유속이 증가하여 레이놀즈수가 커지게 되면 흐름은 Darcy의 영역을 벗어나게 된다. 본 연구는 인공함양 유역의 소하천에 설치예정인 돌망태 보의 채움재를 통과하는 비선형적인 흐름특성을 규명하기 위하여 자갈칼럼과 돌망태모형을 이용한 투수실험을 수행하였다. 칼럼실험을 통하여 공극유속과 수리경사의 관계식과 계수를 결정하고, 수리평균반경과의 상관관계식을 제안하였다. 제안식으로 부터 계산된 공극유속과 공극유량은 돌망태모형 투수실험의 측정치와 잘 일치하였다.
