There are the stirring test and drain test in the daily performance test to determine the thermal performance of a domestic solar hot water system. The drain test is a test that measures the discharge heating rate while drain the hot water from the top of the storage tank and supply the city water to the bottom of the tank. From the perspective of the user, this drain test is more effective than the stirring test. In this study, the thermal performance were compared through the drain test for a passive type and an active type domestic solar hot water systems consisting of the same storage tank and collectors. At this point, a passive type was used the horizontal storage tanks, and an active type was used vertical storage tank. In the drain test, when the hot water drained up to the reference hot water temperature, an active type which have vertical storage tank represents excellent daily performance than a passive type which have horizontal storage tank regardless of weather conditions. The reason for this is because the vertical storage tank is advantageous to thermal stratification in the tank. After the drain test, the residual heat for the horizontal storage tank was much more than the vertical storage tank, but in the next day the amount of discharged heat were less than the those of vertical storage tank neither. Thus, the solar water heating system which have horizontal storage tank should be adopted preheating control method rather than separate using control method when connected with auxiliary heat source device.

본 연구는 1993년 4월부터 1994년 11월까지 대청호 17개 조사지점에서 수온 성충 및 수체 혼합 현상을 평가하였다. 조사기간 동안 하절기 장마 강도의 차이는 뚜렷한 수리 수문학적 연 변화를 가져왔다. 1993년 하절기에 이론적 평균 수체류 시간은 27일로서, 1994년 하절기 (125일)에 비해 3개월 이상 짧았다. 1993년에 수온 성층화와 수층혼합 정도를 조절하는 중요한 물리적 요인은 밀도가 높은 중층수 유입현상(Interflow　current)에 의한 것으로 평가되었다. 1993년 하절기동안 상류 유입수는 호수 중류역 (댐으로 부터 27km 부근)에서 수직 하강되어 10${\sim}$20 m 수층을 통과함으로써 표충수인 호수물과는 혼합되지않는 현상을 보였다. 중층수 유입은 수온 성층화 현상의 약화, 하류역의 중층－심층에서 평균 $4＾{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도상승 효과 및 13 m 이상의 수층혼합을 가져왔다. 전자와　비교해볼 때, 1994년 하절기 중층수 유입현상은 관측되지 않았으며, 호수전체에 강한 성층이 형성되고 있음을 보였다. 1993년 온도 저항력 (Thermal resistance)은 $4.0\;{\time}\;10^5\;erg$로서, 1994년의 값($8.2\;{\time}\;10^5\;erg$)에 비해 절반 수준을 보임으로서, 수체의 물리적 불안정 상태를 시사하였다. 본 호수는 연중 겨울에 1회 수층혼합을 보이는 Warm monomixis 특성을 보였으나, 두해 사이의 수충혼합 시기는 차이를 보였다. 1993년 수층혼합은 1994년에 비해 약 1개월 일찍 일어났다. 하절기 동안 심충 수온 변화(Y)는 댐으로부터의 방류량(X)에 의해 98%까지 설명되었다($Y=4.35-0.06X+0.10X^2$, f<0.0001), 총체적으로 본 수체에서 수온 안정성, 수층혼합 시기 및 수 체류시간은 1차적으로 하절기 몬순 강도에 의해 조절되는 것으로 사료된다.

For the efficient use of thermal energy and its related equipments, optimal energy in view of quality and quantity should be timely provided. The core of thermal energy storage technology deals with an energy efficiency for effective energy storage and supply. The relative importance of thermal energy storage technology has been underestimated so far, and the specific projects on this filed have been performed intermittently. For the efficient and systematic approach of the energy supply system projects on thermal energy storage technology, we conduct the survey on the current status of this field. Firstly, classify into the thermal energy storage and describing the recent research for each system. The necessity and importance of thermal energy storage technology is identified through this study. It reveals that the thermal energy storage is the mandatory technology to solve the difference of supply and demand in thermal loads. It would greatly contribute to the combined heat and power(CHP) system. The urgent technologies for the commercial value and the core technologies for the CHP system are classified with this study.

This work is to extend the elliptic operator, which has been already adopted in turbulent stress model, to fully developed turbulent buoyant channel flows with changing the orientation of the buoyancy vector to be perpendicular to the channel walls. The turbulent heat flux models based on the elliptic concept are employed and closely linked to the elliptic blending second moment closure which is used for the prediction of Reynolds stresses. In order to reflect the stable or unstable stratification conditions, the present model introduces the gradient Richardson number into the thermal to mechanical time scale ratio and model coefficients. The present model has been applied for the computation of stably and unstably stratified turbulent channel flows and the prediction results are directly compared to the DNS data.

An LPG engine (KL6i) for heavy duty vehicle has been developed using liquid phase LPG injection (LPLi) system, which has regarded as one of next generation LPG fuel supply systems. For the KL6i engine, lean burn technology was introduced to minimize the thermal loading and NOx emissions due to an increase of the engine power. In this work, injection timing and piston bowl shape were investigated for the stabilization of lean burn characteristics. Experimental results reveals that fuel stratification induced by these parameters is most effective strategy to extend lean combustion limit in the LPLi system.

강릉 오봉호의 수온 및 탁수 거동에 관한 모델 연구 결과가 본 논문에 제시되었다. 농업용수 공급을 위해 1983년 만들어진 이 호수는 현재 하류 지역의 수자원 확보와 홍수 방지를 위하여 저수용량을 확대하는 재개발이 검토되고 있다. 횡방향 평균화 2차원 수리 수질 모델인 미공병단의 CE-QUAL-W2를 현재 상태와 재개발 후의 호수에 적용하였다. 2001년과 2003년에 관측된 수위와 수온 측정 자료를 이용하여 모델을 보정하고 검증하였으며, 측정 값과 모델 값이 적절한 일치를 보였다. 검증된 모델을 이용하여 댐 재개발이 수온과 수체 흐름에 미치는 영향을 예측한 결과 재개발 후에는 표층과 심층의 수온 구배가 강하게 나타나고, 낮은 수온을 가진 심층이 확대되나, 겨울과 봄에는 수직 수온 분포 형태가 재개발 전과 후 모두 비슷한 것으로 나타났다. 이는 댐 재개발이 여름철 호수 수온 성층현상을 더욱 강하게 만들고 지속시간을 길게 할 것임을 의미한다. 예측된 수체 이동현상을 관찰한 결과 재개발 전에는 상류의 탁수는 호수의 중층과 심층사이에 유입되어 부유물질이 천천히 침강하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 재개발 후에는 강한 성층현상이 나타나기 때문에 밀도가 비슷한 중층에 유입 탁수가 오래 머물 것으로 예측되었다. 또한 재개발로 인하여 댐 부근의 부유물질 농도가 크게 감소할 것이 예측되었다.

The effects of thermal stratification on the flow of a stratified fluid past a circular cylinder were examined in a wind tunnel. In order to produce strong thermal stratifications, a compact heat exchanger type variable electric heater is employed. Linear temperature gradient of up to $250^{\circ}C/m$ can be well sustained. The velocity and temperature profiles in the cylinder wake with a strong thermal gradient of $200^{\circ}C/m$ were measured and the smoke wire flow visualization method was used to investigate the wake characteristics. It is found that the temperature field effects as an active contaminant, so that the mean velocity and temperature profiles can not sustain their symmetricity about the wake centerline when such a strong thermal gradient is superimposed. It is evident that the turbulent mixing in the upper half section is stronger than that of the lower half of the wake in a stably stratified flow.

Temperature monitoring techniques per depth have been recognized as important information in the reservoir environmental issues. However, old measurement method by single temperature sensor and cable type has demerits not only for its limited measuring location but for its inconvenience of users. In this study, multi-channel temperature monitoring system was introduced and executed experiment for actual application feasibility evaluation. Both type of new techniques such as multi-channel addressable built-in temperature sensor and fiber optic multi sensor were tested in Daechung and Imha reservoir. As a result, it was proved that these kinds of temperature monitoring skills had very good performance and availability for a output of spatial, simultaneous thermal distribution focused on the user's convenience. And these measuring method and thermal data will be useful for providing basic information in a water resources investigation like reservoir stratification and environmental problems.

The internal leaks of RCS pressure boundary valves may cause thermal fatigue crack because of the TASCS in RCS branch line. After experienced unisolable piping failures in several PWR plants, many studies have peformed to understand these phenomena and various methods were applied to ensure the structural integrity of piping. In this paper, the cause of unisolable piping failures and the alternatives to prevent recurrence of failure were reviewed. Also, the severity of piping failure including susceptibility of valve leaks was evaluated for the Westinghouse 2-loop plant. The length of turbulent penetration on RHR inlet piping was measured and, thermal fluid analysis and fatigue analysis was performed for this piping. As a means of ensuring the structural integrity, temperature monitoring and specialized UT and other alternatives were compared for the further application.

This paper deals with approximate integral solutions to the one-dimensional model describing the charging process of stratified thermal storage tanks. Temperature is assumed to be the form of Fermi-Dirac distribution function, which can be separated to two sets of cubic polynomials for each hot and cold side of thermal boundary layers. Proposed approximate integral solutions are compared to the previous works of the approximate analytic solutions and show reasonable agreement. The approach, however, has benefits in mathematical difficulties, complicated solution form and unstable convergence of series solution founded in the previous analytic solutions. Solutions for a semi-infinite region, which have simple closed form solutions, give close agreement to those for a finite region. Thermocline thickness is obtained in closed form and shows proportional behavior to the square root of time and inverse proportional behavior to the square root of flow rate.
