In order to provide an effective preparedness for a nuclear or radiological emergency happening in the domestic or neighborhood countries and to solve the vague fear of the people for the ingestion of radioactive livestock products, the establishment of national guideline level for radionuclides in feed is urgently necessary. This is because it is important to secure the safety and to manage the crisis in the agricultural, fishery and food sector by performing the effective safety control during and after nuclear incident. This study was performed to investigate the report cases of international organizations and foreign countries to set up a domestic control standard for managing radioactive substances that may be contaminated in animal feeds due to the nuclear power plant incident. In addition, an attempt was made to provide a useful reference that can help prepare a domestic control standard, using a coefficient that can consider the transfer into livestock through the intake of radioactive contaminated animal feeds. The standard radioisotopes investigated were confined to radioactive cesium ($^{137+134}Cs$) and iodine ($^{131}I$). Guideline level for the radionuclides was calculated by using the transfer coefficient factor and the maximum daily intake of animal feed provided by IAEA. For example, the maximum daily intake of animal feed was set as $25kg\;d^{-1}$ for dairy cows, $10kg\;d^{-1}$ for beef cattle, $3.0kg\;d^{-1}$ for pigs and $0.15kg\;d^{-1}$ for chickens. The result values for radioactive cesium were calculated as $8,696Bq\;kg^{-1}$, $4,545Bq\;kg^{-1}$, $1,667Bq\;kg^{-1}$ and $2,469Bq\;kg^{-1}$, respectively. The results for radioactive iodine showed the ranges between $741Bq\;kg^{-1}$ and $76,628Bq\;kg^{-1}$. These data can be utilized as a scientific reference for the preparation of a crisis management manual for the emergency control due to nuclear power plant accident in Korea and neighboring country. These results will contribute to establish the safe feed management system at national level as manual for responding the radioactive exposure of agricultural products and animal feeds, which are currently not established.

Bolting degradation problems in primary coolant pressure boundary applications have become a major concern in the nuclear industry. In the bolts concerned, the failure mechanism was either corrosion wastage(loss of bolt diameter) or stress-corrosion cracking.(3) Here the manual ultrasonic testing of RPV(Reactor Pressure Vessel) and RCP(Reactor Coolant Pump) stud has been performed. But it is difficult to detect indications because examiner can not exactly control the rotation angle and can not distinguish the indication from signals of bolt. In many cases, the critical sizes of damage depth are very small(1-2 mm order). At critical size, the crack tends to propagatecompletly through the bolt under stress, Resulting in total fracture.(3) Automatic stud scanner for studs(bolts) was developed because the precise measurement of bolt diameter is required in this circumstance. By use of this scanner, the rotation angle of probe was exactly controlled and the exposure time of radiations was reduced.

Check valves used in industrial and Nuclear Power Plant safety systems are susceptible to failure modes generally associated with wear of internal parts. Specifically, hinge pins, disc studs, pistons, and other mechanical parts may degrade over time, and in some cases, may which might produce a disabling event leading to plant or process shutdown. The primary diagnostic technique in the past has been to disassemble the valves. This procedure is costly, time consuming, and in the nuclear industry, it can lead to radiation exposure in some situations. Additionally repair and reassembly of a valve does not ensure proper operation. Non-intrusive diagnostic technologies including acoustics and magnetics with a digital signal analysis allow to evaluate check valve performance without a disassembly and is able to help the user detect degraded valve conditions.

This paper presents thermal aging effect on fracture toughness properties of GTAW (gas tungsten arc welding) and SMAW (shielded metal arc welding) of 316L stainless steels, and investigates the applicability of the existing three thermal aging models for CASS (cast stainless steels). Thermal aging was carried out at 350 ℃ for up to 15,000h and at 400 ℃ up to 8,000h. After aging, tensile and fracture toughness tests using 0.5T C(T) specimens were carried out at room temperature and at 288 ℃. Comparing with the predictions using three (ANL, French and H3T) thermal aging models for CASS show that the predictions can be very non-conservative at operating temperature, and thus that the existing thermal aging models for CASS cannot be applied to the welded stainless steels.

With the 4th industrial revolution, many advanced information technologies are being applied to the area of construction engineering and project management. These applications are usually focusing on design, construction and operation stage and are producing many meaningful fruits. Even though these studies are very important for the development of the construction industry, this study insists that the other stage perspective such as construction business also should be emphasized. Because business phase has significant impacts on the success of a construction project as well as design, construction and operation phase. So, this study reviewed the intelligent-approach papers in planning and marketing, estimation and bid, contract and claim, and project financing fields. This study provides some insights such as values, difficulties, limitations and future directions of business intelligence application.

본 논문은 기술-제도 복합시스템을 활용하여 우리나라의 전력 산업이 현재의 탄소의존 경로에 이르게 된 다양한 원인들을 역사적으로 분석하고, 우리나라 전력산업이 탄소고착에서 벗어나 지속가능한 체제로 전환할 수 있는 가능성에 대해 평가하였다. 분석의 결과 우리나라 전력산업의 탄소고착을 강화시키는 요인들은 시장, 기업, 소비자, 정부측면에 고르게 분포되어 있는 것으로 드러났다. 경제성에 근거한 대규모 발전설비를 선호하는 정부정책과 저렴한 전기요금제도, 요금 인상을 엄격히 억제하는 물가관리 시스템, 여름철과 겨울철 전력수요 급증, 탄력적인 요금제도의 부재, 유연탄과 천연가스 설비의 확대 등이 그것이다. 반면 원자력발전과 스마트 그리드를 제외하면, 탄소고착을 완화시키는 요인들은 주로 환경관련 법률이나 신재생관련 법률이다. 전력산업의 탄소배출이 전원구성에 의해 가장 큰 영향을 받고, 우리 경제가 제조업 기반의 수출 위주이며, 산업과 상업부문의 전력소비가 총 85% 이상이라는 점 등을 고려할 때, 우리나라 전력산업이 이른 시일 내에 탄소고착에서 벗어날 수 있을 가능성은 그리 높아 보이지 않는다. 따라서 우리나라 전력산업이 탄소고착을 탈피하기 위해서는 시장, 기업, 소비자, 정부 차원에서 복합적인 개선 노력이 필요하다. 우선, 시장측면에서는 주요국처럼 독점을 완화하여 적극적인 신재생에너지 확대와 소비자 선택권을 보장하는 조치가 필요하다. 기업측면에서는 적극적인 수요관리와 신재생을 포함하는 분산전원의 확대가 시급한 과제이다. 소비자측면에서는 탄소고착 완화를 위한 다양한 요금제 도입과 소비자의 의식전환 노력 등이 필요하다. 마지막으로, 정부에서는 수급계획 수립 시 중요하게 고려되지 못했던 다양한 외부 비용들, 예를 들어 환경비용, 사회적 갈등비용 등을 포함하는 제도 개선이 시급히 필요하다.

2021년, 정부는 국가 온실가스 감축목표(Nationally Determined Contribution, NDC)를 상향 설정하고 에너지 분야의 주요 감축 방안과 감축목표를 제시하였으나, 다양한 쟁점이 논의되고 있다. 그 중 NDC 감축목표를 달성하기 위한 에너지수요와 신재생에너지 발전 비중을 17개 광역시도 통합평가모형 GCAM-Korea로 분석하였다. 그 결과, 2030년 최종소비부분의 에너지수요는 2018년과 비슷한 수준이었다. 이는 석탄 비중의 감소와 전기화가 진행되면서 가능한 것으로 보이며, 특히, 산업부문에서 그 현상이 뚜렷이 나타났다. 최종소비부문에서 증가한 전기수요와 감소한 석탄 발전량(2030년 발전 비중 12.8%)은 신재생(33.1%), 가스(24.6%), 원자력(18.0%)이 부담하는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 따라 미래의 주요 발전지역은 현 주요 발전지역인 충남(주요 발전원, 석탄)에서 경북(원자력), 경기(가스), 전남(원자력, 가스), 강원(태양광, 풍력)으로 바뀌었다. 이와 같은 연구 결과는 국가와 지자체의 에너지 정책 및 온실가스 감축 전략 도출을 위한 기반자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

고에너지 초음파 여기 탄성파가 물체의 균열, 박리 등의 결함 부위를 통과할 때 서로 맞닿은 결함면은 균일하게 진동하지 않는다. 초음파 입사에 따른 결함 면 사이의 마찰(friction), 문지름 (rubbing) 또는 부딪침(clapping) 에 의해 진동 에너지가 결함 부위에서 국부적인 열로 변환된다. 이를 적외선 열 영상 카메라로 관측하면 구조물의 결함을 실시간으로 검출할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 초음파 열 영상 검사를 이용한 인코넬 합금 박판의 브레이징 접합 결함 검출에 대해 기술한다. 2 kW 의 전력과 23 kHz 대역의 가진 주파수를 갖는 초음파 펄스를 280 ms 기간 동안 인코넬 합금의 브레이징 접합 박판에 입사시켰다. 브레이징 접합부의 결함위치 부근의 인코넬 합금 박판의 양면이 맞닿은 경계선에서 아주 밝은 국부적인 발열(핫 스팟)이 적외선 열 영상 카메라에 의해 관측되었으며 브레이징 접합 결함 위치에서도 미약한 열이 관측되었다. 배경 감산 평균 및 히스토그램 평활화 처리 등의 영상처리를 통해 브레이징 접합의 결함을 확인하였다.
