We developed a high-efficiency, wide-operating-range centrifugal blower stage to meet the demand for reduced total energy-consumption in sewage treatment plants. We improved the efficiency of the two-dimensional impeller using a shape optimization tool and one-dimensional performance prediction tool. A limit of the throat deceleration ratio was set to maintain the stall-margin of the impeller. The low solidity vaned diffuser and return channel were designed using a sensitivity analysis with orthogonal arrays and three-dimensional steady flow simulations. The low solidity diffuser was designed in order to improve the performance in the low-flow-rate region. The return channel was designed so that the total pressure loss in the return channel was minimized. Model tests of both the conventional and optimized blower stages were carried out, and the efficiency and operating range of both stages were compared. The optimized blower stage improved in stage efficiency by 3% and in operating range by 5% compared with the conventional blower stage.

In this study, the flow and thermal performance of the heat sink and fan-sink were experimentally studied to predict the operating condition of the fan-sink. The experiments of the flow and thermal resistance of the heat sink with various inlet blockage, which were occurred by the shapes of the axial fans, were conducted for the proof of the effects of the inlet blockages. The greater the inlet blockage of the heat sink, the higher the pressure drop and lower the thermal resistance of the heat sink will be. The operating point of the fan-sink was predicted by the pressure drop curve with the inlet blockage, which was corresponded to the selected fan and the fan performance curve, and verified by the performance test of the fan-sink. The predicted operating point of the fan-sink had good agreement with the result of the performance test of the fan-sink within $0.7\%$ of the volume flow rates. Measured thermal resistance of the fan-sink was equivalent to that of the heat sink with the same inlet blockage of the fan-sink. It was shown that the heat transfer characteristics of the heat sink were influenced by the flow interaction between the selected fan and the heat sink. To improve the thermal resistance of the heat sink, it is necessary to consider appropriate flow patterns of the fan outlet entering into the heat sink.

Polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) performance degrades when hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$) is present in the fuel hydrogen gas; this is referred to as $H_2S$ poisoning. This paper reveals $H_2S$ poisoning on PEMFC by measuring electrical performance of single cell FC under various operating conditions. The severity of $H_2S$ poisoning depended on $H_2S$ concentration under best operating conditions($65^{\circ}C$ of cell temperature and 100% of anode humidification). $H_2S$ adsorption occured on the surface of catalyst layer on MEA, but not on the gas diffusion layer(GDL) by analyzing SEM/EDX data. In addition, MEA poisoning by $H_2S$ was cumulative but reversible. After poisoning for less than 150 min, performance of PEMFC was recovered up to 80% by just inert nitrogen gas purging.

In spite of its simple design, structure and operating mechanism, swing check valves are one of the critical components which adversely affect the safety of the nuclear power plants if they fail to function properly. Therefore, it is important to evaluate the performance condition of the swing check valves in safety-related systems. The performance characteristics of swing check valves include opening characteristics, the minimum required flow velocity, the pressure drop at design flow, the disc stability, and the effect of the upstream disturbances. Among factors to identify the performance of a swing check valve, a method to evaluate the opening characteristics and the minimum required flow velocity, which guarantees to fully open the disc and hold the disc without motion, are presented to determine the operating region of the swing check valve, such as stable, tapping, or oscillation. Based on the determined operating region and opening characteristics, the simple methods of wear and fatigue analyses of the specific parts of the valve are also described.

Sewer Rehabilitation Project (SRP) is planed, designed and constructed to perform its intended performance as sewerage delivery systems. Recently, a subject of performance evaluation methodology development for SRP has become a great deal of concern among researchers in Korea. From the view point of Sewage Treatment Plant (STP), however, the estimation of improvement efficiency for SRP is in lack of reliability due to the fact that affections for the treatment efficiency and operating condition are not reflected on SRP design and construction. In this study, statistical methodology was used in the analysis of data, which are taken during 1,186 days ($1^{st}$ Jan. 2005 - $31^{th}$ Mar. 2008) from the influent, effluent and operating conditions of full-scale STP($25,000m^3/d$). Then the effect of SRP on the influent characteristics and operating conditions changing was compared and evaluated. Results from the statistical evaluation show that SRP causes characteristic changes in influent and exerts a significant effect especially on the performance of STP.

본 연구는 소형 고속정의 운항한계를 검토하기 위하여 수행되었다. 일반적으로 내항성능의 검토는 선형의 결정 단계 전에 이루어지지만 본 연구는 선박의 건조가 완료된 후에 이루어졌다. 검토 결과, 종동요, 수직 및 수평가속도, 슬래밍의 운동성능은 특정한 조우각을 제외하고는 만족하였으나 갑판침수의 경우에는 해석을 수행한 모든 조건에서 만족하지 않았다. 이것은 대상선박의 크기가 소형이기 때문에 선박의 속도나 파도와의 조우각보다는 해상상태가 설정한 내항성능 기준의 만족 여부에 더 큰 영향을 미쳤기 때문으로 보인다.

The objectives of this study are to predict actual system performance and effective operating range of the 2-stage compression heat pump system using river water. An electronic expansion valve was applied to the simulation to analyze the effects of operating conditions on the system performance. The developed program was verified by comparing the predictions with the measured data. The results from the present model showed a good agreement with the measured data. In addition, the heat pump simulation was conducted by increasing condenser reservoir inlet temperature to investigate the benefits of the 2-stage compression over the 1-stage compression in the heating mode. The performance of the 2-stage compression cycle was better than that of the 1-stage compression when the inlet temperature of the condenser reservoir was higher than $40^{\circ}C$.

The CRUD on the fuel cladding under the pressurized water reactor (PWR) operating condition causes several issues. The CRUD can act as thermal resistance and increases the local cladding temperature which accelerate the corrosion process. The hideout of boron inside the CRUD results in axial offset anomaly and reduces the plant's shutdown margin. Recently, there are efforts to revise the acceptance criteria of emergency core cooling systems (ECCS), and additionally require the modeling of the thermal resistance effect of the CRUD during the performance analysis. There is an urgent need for the evaluation of the effect of the CRUD deposition on the cladding heat transfer under PWR operating conditions, but the experimental database is very limited. The experimental facility called DISNY was designed and constructed to analyze the CRUD-related multi-physical phenomena, and the performance analysis of the constructed DISNY facility was conducted. The thermal-hydraulic and water chemistry conditions to simulate the CRUD growth under PWR operating conditions were established. The design characteristics and feasibility of the DISNY facility were validated by the MARS-KS code analysis and separate performance tests. In the current study, detailed design features, design validation results, and future utilization plans of the proposed DISNY facility are presented.
