A numerical simulation was conducted to establish the analysis methods of the unsteady conjugated heat transfer with a hot gas valve. Two methods are proposed to reduce the computational cost and analysis time of the unsteady conjugate heat transfer; namely, the multi-section analysis method and the one-way analysis method. The multi-section analysis method exhibits relatively high reliability. In the one-way analysis method, the unsteady conjugate heat transfer from the fluid domain to the solid domain was simulated from the analysis results of the steady-state flowfield. The incipient accuracy of the analysis results obtained by the one-way analysis method was slightly lower than that of the results obtained by the multi-section analysis method. However, the discrepancy became smaller with time, as the analysis progressed.

A great deal of difficulty is encountered in the thermo-mechanical analyses of nozzle assemblies for solid propellant rocket motors. The main issue in this paper is the modeling of the boundary conditions and the connections between the various components-gaps, relative movements of the components, contacts, friction, etc. This paper evaluates the complex phenomena of nozzle assemblies during burning time with co-simulations that include fluid, thermal surface reaction/ablation, and structural analysis. The validity of this approach is verified via comparison of analysis results with measured strains.

We prepared hydrophobic silica particles by a sol-gel process from tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS), followed by coupling the reaction with octyltrimethoxysilane (OTMS) or hexadecyltrimethoxysilane (HDTMS) under various reaction conditions. We confirmed the extent of silica surface modification with organic compounds by SEM-EDS, thermogravimetry and elemental analysis. The silica particles obtained after the hydrolysis reaction of TEOS in ethanol at $50^{\circ}C$ for 24 h and the coupling reaction with OTMS for 2 h at the same temperature displayed the optimum performance in terms of the dispersity in an organic solvent and the surface roughness of films composited with epoxy resins. The oxygen permeability of the composite film with modified-silica was 12% lower than that of using the film without modified-silica.

Advanced fiber fabrics have been utilized in not only anti-stabbing and bullet-proofing for body armor but also various industrial fields including vehicular armor and spacecraft structure. Furthermore, there have been a number of research to improve the ballistic performance of advanced fabrics introducing many computational approaches. In our research, an advanced fabric, Heracron manufactured in South Korea was modelled firstly using Autodyn, a commercial software specializing in impact and explosion phenomenon. The sensitivity of the input parameters was also confirmed by conducting simulations. To verify the numerical modelling, we measured and compared the simulation results with velocity decrements after impact involving one, three, and five layers of Heracron under 200-500 m/s impacts by an aluminum spherical projectile. The Heracron fabric was successfully modelled using Autodyn.

The construction of a "cold-chain cluster," which is a complex of cold-storage warehouses is emerging as an issue in the logistics industry. The Incheon Port Authority, in partnership with Korea Gas Corporation, is carrying out a project to build a cold-storage cluster using cold energy generated in the Songdo LNG receiving terminal. This study proposes a method of activating the cold-storage cluster using the CFPR methodology. An analysis of major factors showed that the most important factor was stability and profitability, which scored 0.281. For sub-factors, sustainable trade volume was the highest in importance, followed by rent level, the sustainability of LNG cold energy utilization technology, competition with general cold-storage warehouses, and exclusion of duplicate investments in facilities. For the future study, the evaluation of complex of cold-storage warehouses using major factors drawn out from this study is needed.

Simultaneous removal technologies of multi-pollutants such as particulate matters (PMs), NOx, SOx, VOCs and ammonia have received consistent attention due to the enhancement of pollutant abatement efficiency in addition to the stringent environmental regulation and emission standard. Pretreatment of insoluble NO by an ozone oxidation can be considered to be more effective route for saving space occupation as well as operation cost in comparison with that of traditional selective catalytic reduction (SCR) process. Moreover the primary advantage of ozone oxidation process is that the simultaneous removal with acidic gas including SOx is also available. Herein, we highlight recent studies of multi-pollutant abatement via ozone oxidation process and the promising research topics for better application in industrial sectors.

Numerical simulation is the most widely used methods for evaluating blasting performance. This study, conducted the numerical analysis of shock chamber model to evaluate the pressure confine effect of the stemming material and plug device. The stemming effect was compared and evaluated with that of the STF-based stemming material currently under development and sand, which is a commonly used blast stemming material. Furthermore, to verify of enhancement the confine effect inside blast hole pressure, three types of stemming plugs were adopted for the numerical analysis. The numerical simulation results revealed that the STF-based stemming materials were superior to the general stemming material. Also, It is evaluated that the STF-based stemming and Plug system can not only prevent detonation gas from overflowing the borehole prematurely, but also prolong the action time and scope of detonation gas in the borehole effective.

During the winter season, when the weather gets colder every year, electricity consumption increases rapidly. The occurrence of fires is increasing due to a short circuit in electrical facilities of buildings such as markets, bathrooms, and apartments with high population density while using a lot of electricity. The cause of these short circuit fires is mostly due to the aging of the wires, the usage increases, and the excessive load cannot be endured, and the wire sheath is melted and caused by nearby ignition materials. In this paper, the load and overheat generated in the electric wire are measured through a complex sensor composed of an overload sensor, a VoC sensor, and an overheat sensor. Based on this, big data analysis is carried out to develop a platform capable of predicting, alerting, and blocking electric fires in real time, and a simulator capable of simulated fire experiments.

최근, 산업의 발달로 인하여 생활수준이 향상되어 대량생산과 대량소비현상이 발생하고 도시의 밀집도가 높아 단위 면적당 거주하는 인구가 증가되면서 거주지역에서 발생되는 부산물이 현저히 증가되어 환경측면에서 복합적인 환경문제에 직면해 있다. 최근까지 대책마련에 고심하고 있는 도시에서 발생된 다량의 쓰레기 처리문제는 경제적인 측면에서 몇 년 전 까지는 대부분을 매립에 의존해 왔으나, 매립 방식에 의존하였으나 지가 및 공사설비의 상승, 일부 비위생적으로 조성된 매립장에서 배출되는 침출수 및 악취 등의 환경오염이 심각한 사회문제로 대두되면서 매립장의 확보나 증설은 해당 지역주민의 반발로 지방자치단체의 골치 아픈 과제로 등장하였다. 이러한 문제점을 보완하기 위해, 최근에는 매립지 확보의 어려움과 환경보존을 위하여 쓰레기를 정적이고 위생적으로 처리하기 위하여, 소각시설이 표 1과 같이 증가하고 있으나 소각 때 발생하는 다이옥신 등 인체에 치명적인 오염을 유발시키기 때문에 소각로 건설에 대한 환경운동단체와 주민들의 반발이 거세게 제기되고 있는 현실이다. 이러한 영향에 의해 앞으로는 소각보다는 쓰레기 자체를 감량.재사용.재활용하는 처리방식이 표 1과 같이 증가되는 현실이다. 쓰레기를 소각하는 것은 제 2오염을 유발시키고, 소각장 건설비용과 유지관리에 많은 예산이 소요된다. 쓰레기소각장을 건설할 때, 인근주민이나 환경단체로부터 반대의견에 직면하게 되는데, 그 사유는 쓰레기 처리과정의 전 단계인 반입.공급 과정에서 악취발생과, 후단계인 소각설비에서 발생되는 배출가스 오염원을 완전히 제거하라는 것이다. 최근에는 소각장의 설계.시공과정에서 최대한 악취발생과 확산을 억제하는 시설에 투자를 하고 있으며, 또한 주민 편익 시설과 부대 복리 후생시설은 소각시설 주변지역 주민틀의 소각시설에 대한 부정적 이미지를 불식시키며, 외부 방문객이나 운영 관리 요원들에게 쾌적한 환경조성과 업무효율 및 근무환경의 개선에 일익을 담당하고 있다. 본 고는 환경 친화적인 쓰레기 소각장을 설계하는 측면에서 1998년도에 턴키방식으로 발주되었고 2001년 12월에 준공하여 운전하고 있는 경기도 구리시 자원회수시설의 환기설비에 적용된 설계 및 시공개념을 소개하고자 한다.

Efforts for reducing greenhouse gas emission coping with climate change have also been performed in the field of water and wastewater works. In particular, the technical development for reducing energy has been applied in operating water distribution system. The reduction of energy in water distribution system can be achieved by reducing structural loss induced by topographic variation and operational loss induced by leakage and friction. However, both analytical and numerical approaches for analyzing energy budget of water distribution system has been challengeable because energy components are affected by the complex interaction of affecting factors. This research drew mathematical equations for 5 types of state (hypothetical, ideal, leak-included ideal, leak-excluded real, and real), which depend on the assumptions of topographic variation, leakage, and friction. Furthermore, the derived equations are schematically illustrated and applied into simple water network. The suggested method makes water utilities quantify, classify, and evaluate the energy of water distribution system.
