In this paper, we propose Bayes estimators of the finite population mean based on heavy-tailed prior distributions using scale mixtures of normals. Also, the asymptotic optimality property of the proposed Bayes estimators is proved. A numerical example is provided to illustrate the results.

The paper considers some Bayes estimators of the finite population mean with auxiliary information under priors which are scale mixtures of normal, and thus have tail heavier than that of the normal. The proposed estimators are quite robust in general. Numerical methods of finding Bayes estimators under these heavy tailed priors are given, and are illustrated with an actual example.

In this paper we propose a family of skew- f distributions. The family is derived by a scale mixtures of skew-normal distributions introduced by Azzalini (1985) and Henze (1986). The salient features of the family are mathematical tractability and strict inclusion of the normal law. Further it includes a shape parameter, to some extent, controls the index of skewness. Necessary theory involved in deriving the family of distributions is provided and main properties of the family are also studied.

This article addresses aspects of combining information, with special attention to meta-analysis. In specific, we consider hierarchical Bayesian models for meta-analysis under priors which are scale mixtures of normal, and thus have tail heavier than that of the normal. Numerical methods of finding Bayes estimators under these heavy tailed prior are given, and are illustrated with an actual example.

Severe accidents in nuclear power plants can cause hydrogen-generating chemical reactions, which create the danger of hydrogen combustion and thus threaten containment integrity. For containment analyses, a three-dimensional mechanistic code, GOTHIC-3D has been applied near source compartments to predict whether or not highly reactive gas mixtures can form during an accident with the hydrogen mitigation system working. To assess the code applicability to hydrogen combustion analysis, this paper presents the numerical calculation results of GOTHIC-3D for various hydrogen combustion experiments, including FLAME, LSVCTF, and SNU-2D. In this study, a technical base for the modeling oflarge- and small-scale facilities was introduced through sensitivity studies on cell size and bum modeling parameters. Use of a turbulent bum option of the eddy dissipation concept enabled scale-free applications. Lowering the bum parameter values for the flame thickness and the bum temperature limit resulted in a larger flame velocity. When applied to hydrogen combustion analysis, this study revealed that the GOTHIC-3D code is generally able to predict the combustion phenomena with its default bum modeling parameters for large-scale facilities. However, the code needs further modifications of its bum modeling parameters to be applied to either small-scale facilities or extremely fast transients.

The wall film-wise condensation plays an important role in the heat transfer processes of heat exchangers, refrigerators, and air conditioner. In the field of nuclear engineering, steam condensation is often utilized in safety systems to remove the core decay heat under both transient and accident conditions. In particular, passive containment cooling system (PCCS), are designed to ensure containment safety under severe accident conditions. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) scale analysis has been conducted to calculate the heat transfer rate of the PCCS. However, despite the increase in computing power, there are challenges in the long-term transient simulation of containment using CFD scale codes. In this study, a heat structure coupling between the CFD and system analysis codes was performed to efficiently analyze PCCS. In addition, the component unstructured program for interfacial dynamics (CUPID) was improved to analyze the condensation behavior of ternary gas mixtures. Thereafter, the condensation heat transfer on the primary side was calculated using the improved CUPID and CFD code, whereas that on the secondary side was simulated using MARS. Both the coupled codes were validated against the CONAN facility database. Finally, conjugate heat transfer simulations with wall condensation in the presence of non-condensable gases were appropriately performed.

Rose $Bengal-^{131}$ /I, $Hippuran-^{131}$ /I, $H.S.A-^{131}$ /I 등을 효과적으로 합성하기 위해 표지 반응액의 pH, 염의함량, 반응액중의 완충용액의 부피 및 합성장치등에 따르는 표지 반응수율을 검토하였다. Rose $Bengal-^131{ }$I 및 $Hippuran-^{131}$ /I 의 반응수율은 PH 5.6에서, $H.S.A-^{131}$ /I 반응수율은 pH 8.5에서 각각 가장 좋았다. 반응액중에 함유된 염은 $Hippuran-^{131}$ /I의 생성반응을 크게 저해 시켰으며 H.S.A.의 표지수율은 어느 범위안에서 오히려 약간 향상시켰다. Rose $Bengal-^{131}$ /I 나 $Hippuran-^{131}$ /I 를 소규모 합성할 경우는 밀폐된 용기가 효과적이었다. 이상의 결과에 따라 더 높은 표지수율과 좋은 재현성을 얻을 수 있는 반응조건을 확립하였으며 이에 따라 환원제가 함유된 국산 $Na^{131}$ /I를 사용하더라도 Rose $Bengal-^{131}$ /I과 $Hippurn=^{131}$ /I의 표지수율을 높일 수 있었다.

Solvolyses rate constant of 1- and 2- naphthoyl chlorides (1 and 2) are reported for aqueous binary mixtures with methanol, ethanol, fluorinated alcohol, acetonitrile and dioxane. Kinetic solvent isotope effects (KISE) in methanol and product selectivities (S) of 2-naphthoyl chloride (2) in alcohol-water are also reported. Dispersions in Grunwald-Winstein correlations $(r{\leq}0.901)$ are discussed by multiple regression analysis incorporating ionizing power $(Y_{Cl})$ scale and rate-rate profiles. Major causes for these phenomena are investigated as an aromatic ring solvation effects, in conjunction with weakly nucleophilic solvation effects ($S_N2$ character), for solvolyses of 1 and for solvolyses of 2, as dual reaction channels, described as $S_N1$-$S_N2$ and $S_AN$-$S_N2$ processes. Distinct border lines between the two pathways are derived from solvolyses rates of 2 in 18 solvent using the results of $log(k/k_o)=mY_{Cl}+lN_T+hI$ plot with values of 1.13 for m, 0.37 for l and 0.15 for h value in 5 aqueous fluorinated alcohol mixtures. Using rate-product correlation, the validity of a third order model based on a general base catalyzed by solvent and contribution from these rate constants, $k_{aa},\;k_{aw}$ and $k_{aw}$, are investigated for $S_AN$-$S_N2$ solvolyses of 2 favored in more rich alcohol media and gradual addition of water to alcohol solvent shows a great shift away from stoichiometric solvation to predominantly medium effects. Rate-rate correlation between solvolyses of 2 and trimethyl acetylchloride (5) with alkyl group in the 29 aqueous solvent mixtures shows appreciable linearity (slope = 0.84, r = 0.987), caused by the same pathway ($S_N1$-$S_N2$ process), even if this correlation coincides with appreciable dispersion (different solvation effect).

본 연구는 MEK, MIBK와 BTX 혼합물을 미생물 컨소시엄을 통하여 biofilter를 이용한 이 들 화합물에 대한 제거율을 파악해 봄으로써, 추후에 pilot plant scale을 설계하는 기본 변수로 활용하고자 한다. 미생물의 적응기간인 초기 2일까지의 제거효율은 변화의 폭이 다소 적었으나 3일 이후부터 급상승하여 4일 이후부터 높은 제거효율을 나타내었다. 또한, 혼합 VOCs의 유입 농도에 변화를 주어 이에 대한 biofilter의 운진시간에 따른 제거율의 변화에 있어서도 VOCs 유입에 대하여 초기에는 낮은 처리효율을 보여주었으나 1일이 경과한 후 높은 제거효율을 보였다. 본 연구에서는 처리할 VOCs 물질의 유입 농도 변화에 상관없이 높은 처리효율을 나타냈다 이는 biofilter 에 처음으로 적용한 섬유상 담체의 표면에 운전기간동안 미생물들이 지속적으로 부착되어 유입되는 VOCs 물질에 대한 적응기간을 단축시킬 수 있었던 것으로 사료된다.

황함유량이 높아 독성 폐기물로서 분류되는 석유코크스를 역청탄 및 아역청탄과 혼합하여 가스화 공정을 통해 액체연료를 생산하는 공정의 경제성을 분석하였다. 공정의 경제성을 분석하기 위한 2,000 톤/일 규모의 액화 공정은 가스화, 정제, Fischer-Tropsch 전환 등으로 이루어진다. 기발표된 자료들로부터 적절한 검토 기준을 통해 건설비용 및 매출액을 산정하였고 석유코크스/석탄의 혼합비에 따른 경제성을 평가하였다. 경제성 평가 결과, 원소황의 생산과 판매 증가로 인해서 석유코크스의 경제성이 석탄보다 우수했으며 수분 함량이 낮은 역청탄과의 혼합이 보다 높은 경제성을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 아역청탄의 경우, IRR (Internal rate of return)이 10% 이상이 되기 위해서는 석유코크스와의 혼합이 적어도 40 wt% 이상이 되어야 함을 확인하였다.
