A methodology to evaluate the seismic performance of interface piping systems that cross the isolation interface in the seismically isolated nuclear power plant (NPP) was developed. The developed methodology was applied to the safety-related interface piping system to demonstrate the seismic performance of the target piping system. Not only the seismic performance for the design level earthquakes but also the performance for the beyond design level earthquakes were evaluated. Two artificial seismic ground input motions which were matched to the design response spectra and two historical earthquake ground motions were used for the seismic analysis of piping system. The preliminary performance evaluation results show that the excessive relative displacements can occur in the seismically isolated piping system. If the input ground motion contained relatively high energy in the low frequency region, we could find that the stress response of the piping system exceed the allowable stress level even though the intensity of the input ground motion is equal to the design level earthquake. The structural responses and seismic performances of piping system were varied sensitively with respect to the intensities and frequency contents of input ground motions. Therefore, for the application of isolation system to NPPs and the verification of the safety of piping system, the seismic performance of the piping system subjected to the earthquake at the target NPP site should be evaluated firstly.

토질제체 설계시 piping에 대한 대책으로 현재에 적용되고 있는 creep비는 원래 Masonry 또는 콘크리트 댐의 저면과 기초지반토질과의 접촉면에 따른 침투에 의한 piping의 방지를 위한 기준이었다. 본 연구에서는 이 creep비가 토질로 형성된 제체에서도 적용될 수 있는지의 여부를 모형실험을 통하여 구명하고 현행 creep비기준을 재평가 하였다. 연구결과 토질제체에서 발생되는 piping파괴는 토질제체와 기초지반과의 확측면에서는 발생하 지 않았으며 토질종류에 관계없이 제체내에서만 발생하였다. 따라서 제체를 형성하는 토질과 기초 지반토질중 투수계수가 적은 토질을 기준으로 creep비를 정하는 현재의 설계기준은 불합리함을 알 수 있었다.

Many piping systems installed in the power plant are directly related to the safety and operation of the plant. Various dampers have been applied to the piping system to reduce the damage caused by earthquakes. In order to reduce the vibration of the piping system, this study developed a steel coil damper (SCD) with a straightforward structure but excellent damping performance. SCD reduces the vibration of the objective structure by hysteretic damping. The new SCD damper can be applied to high-temperature environments since it consists of steel members. The paper introduces a design method for the elastoplastic coil spring, which is the critical element of SCD. The practical applicability of the design procedure was validated by comparing the nonlinear force-displacement curves calculated by design equations with the results obtained from nonlinear finite element analysis and repeated loading test. It was found that the designed SCD's have a damping ratio higher than 25%. In addition, this study performed a set of seismic tests using a shaking table with an existing piping system to verify the vibration control capacity on the piping system by SCD. Test results prove that the SCD can effectively control the displacement vibration of the piping system up to 80%.

Largely, there are three kinds of the design criteria of piping system in petrochemical plant. The first is on the pipe thickness in accordance with the design pressure of piping system. The second is on the static state evaluation by thermal growth and the other is on the dynamic evaluation by piping vibration. According to the ASME B31.3 code, the internal pressure design thickness fur straight pipe shall be calculated as a code formula. And the static design by thermal displacement is defined 7000 cycles of fatigue life in operating the piping system with a design condition. However, the dynamic design evaluation in comparative with small displacements of high frequencies to the static condition has not established clearly the method, yet. So, this study purposes to present the trial of a proposal of dynamic design criterion on the basis of static design method.

A number of so-called 'Type IV' cracking was reported to occur at the welded joints of the P91 steel or P92 steel reheat steam piping systems in Korean supercritical thermal power plants. The reheat steam piping systems are subjected to severe thermal and pressure loading conditions of coolant higher than 570℃ and 4MPa, respectively. In this study, piping analyses and design evaluations were conducted for the piping system of a specific thermal plant in Korea and suggestions were made how structural integrity could be improved so that type IV cracks at the welded joints could be prevented. Integrity evaluations were conducted as per ASME B31.1 code with implicit consideration of creep effects which was used in original design of the piping system and as per nuclear-grade RCC-MRx code with explicit consideration of creep effects. Comparisons were made between the evaluation results from the two design rules. Another approach with modification or reduction of the redundant supports in the piping systems was investigated as a tool to mitigate thermal stresses which should essentially contribute to prevention of Type IV cracking without major modification of the existing piping systems. In addition, a post weld heat treatment method and repair weld method which could improve integrity of the welded joint of P91 steel were investigated.

In the waste collection system, living waste is collected through the piping network. There are many confluent pipes in a piping network. These confluent pipes were often clogged up with waste. The optimal configuration of the confluent pipes has been defined by the design guide. However, nobody know how this design guide were determined. Therefore, in this paper, we found the design data for the confluent pipe configuration in order to avoid the waste clogging in a piping network. The distance between connected point on the confluent pipes should be longer than the previous design guide.

The piping route of hydraulic hose is designed with avoiding interferences to surrounding components. However, in a real practice, the piping route is mostly decided with an expert's experiences on site due to the complexity of design. Thus, this paper proposes a design methodology of the optimized route of a hose. We use NURBS representation to describe the piping route, which is possible to be locally modified, and an energy minimization method is applied to avoid interferences to the surroundings. In other words, the NURBS curve describing a piping route is modified to meet the desired positions from minimizing the perturbation of the control points, and the strain energy of the curve is then optimized to make the curve natural. The proposed method is implemented and its feasibility is validated using the commercial CAD software, CATIA V5.
