The objective of this study is to design a laboratory specimen for simulating residual stress of circumferential butt welding of pipe. Specimen type and method for residual stress generation were proposed based on the review of prior studies and parametric finite element simulation. To prove the proposed specimen type and loading method, the residual stress was generated using the designed specimen by applying proposed method and was measured. The measured residual stress using X-ray diffraction reasonably agreed with the results of finite element simulation considered in the specimen design. Comparison of residual strains measured at several locations of specimen and given by finite element simulation also showed good agreement. Therefore, it is indicated that the designed specimen can reasonably simulate the residual stress of circumferential butt welding of pipe.

A preburner for the staged combustion in the high performance liquid rocket engine is being developed and strength experiments and finite element analyses on specimens, which simulate the brazing joint of the preburner, were performed and the results were compared. One specimen simulate the joints near oxygen injectors of head by the funance brazing and two specimens the joints of the combustion chamber cooling channel by vacuum brazing. The experiments were burst ones with strain gauges.

A preburner for the high performance, staged combustion cycle liquid rocket engine is being developed. For the structural design processes, strength experiments and finite element analyses on specimens simulating the brazing joints of the preburner, were performed and compared. Total two kinds of the specimen were manufactured for the tests. One simulated the joints between the oxygen injectors and the head junctioned by the conventional vacuum brazing. The another was made to test the brazing surfaces by vacuum compression between the combustion chamber cooling channel and the outer wall. During the burst experiments, it was observed that the fractures were occurred not at the brazed joining but in the middle of the face plate and the cooling wall. In addition, the analysis showed that the predicted fracture locations and the strains were well matched with the experiment results.

The objective of this study is to develop a local failure criterion for a wall thinning defect of piping components. For this purpose, a series of tensile tests was performed using several types of simulated specimens with different stress states, including smooth round bar, notched round bar (five different notch radii), and grooved plate (three different groove radii). In addition, finite element (FE) simulations were performed on the simulated specimen tests and the results were compared with the test results. From the comparisons, the equivalent stress and strain corresponding to maximum load and final failure of notched specimens were proposed as failure criteria under tensile load. The criteria were verified by employing them to the estimation of failure of grooved plate specimens that simulate the wall thinning defect. It showed that the proposed criteria accurately estimate the maximum load and final failure of grooved plate specimen tests.

원자력 발전소에서의 중대사고시, 고온의 노심 용융물이 원자로 공동으로 떨어지면 노심용융물과 콘크리트간의 반응(MCCI)에 의한 여러가지 현상으로 인해 격납용기의 건전성을 위협할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 노심 용융물의 모사체로 고온의 Thermite 20kg을 영광 원자력 발전소 3, 4호기에 사용된 콘크리트 시편에 부어 중대사고시 MCCI 현상을 모사하였다. 실험에서는 국내 콘크리트에서의 침식율, 가스 및 입자 발생률을 측정하였다. 실험에서 측정된 용융물의 최고 온도는 약 2230 $^{\circ}C$이고, 콘크리트 시편으로의 최대 하부 열유속은 초기에 약 1.1~1.3 MW/$m^2$로 나타났으며, 전체적인 콘크리트의 침식 깊이는 약 15mm 그리고 초기의 최대 침식율은 129 cm/hr로 나타났다. 향후에 이 실험 결과를 MELCOR 코드의 MCCI 해석 모듈인 CORCON-MOD3의 해석 결과와 비교할 예정이다.

Impact modifier reinforced polymers are frequently used. In this study, Izod impact test has been simulated to analyze the mechanism of impact reinforcement of Nylon6 which contains impact modifier. The modeling of rubber particles added to Nylon6 as an impact modifier has been attempted. Based on the modeling, simulation of Izod impact test has been performed to observe the distribution and direction of stress at the cross-section of impact specimen. Three computer simulation models for Nylon6 were investigated. Those were without impact modifier, containing impact modifier without surface treatment, and containing impact modifier with surface treatment in the Nylon6. Simulation results showed that the stress which originated at the notch surface propergated to the inside of specimen round a impact modifier. In addition to that, impact modifier reinforced Nylon6 specimen showed low stress ditribution in the cross-section specially at notch surface. Principal stress in perpendicular direction to crack was also lowered in impact modifier reinforced Nylon6. These enhanced impact resistance reduced and crack propergations. Through this study it was realized that the computer simulation can be utilized to investigate the property enhacement of composite materials.

Monolithic SiC and SiC/C FGM layers were deposited on the graphite substrates by the CVD method and their thermal properties of the two specimens were investigated by thermal shock test for comparison. Temperature profiles and thermal stress distributions on thermal shock test were calculated by a commercially used computer program to see the thermal stress differences inside of two specimens. The specimens coated with FGM were expected to show a efficient relaxation of thermal stresses at the interface and they were not cracked under the actual $\Delta$T=1600 K experimental condition. This result proved that the experimental results were well accorded with the expectation from the theoretical calculations.

Metal exposed to high temperature/high pressure/oxidizer-rich environment may cause rapid oxidation(ignition and combustion). In this study, a DC power supply test system that controls the temperature of specimen by supplying power to the specimen was constructed and after simulating the high temperature/stagnation/oxidizer-rich environment, the metal oxidation and ignition of STS series metal materials were evaluated. As a result, we was confirmed that the deformation (discoloration) of the selected material, the change in the surface roughness and the peeling of the metal surface were observed, and that the weight and the specimen thickness were changed. The most oxidized specimen was STS 304 and the less oxidized specimen was XM-19.

In this paper, the heat transfer characteristics of Jet A-1, which is used as a coolant and fuel in a regeneratively cooled thrust chamber, were experimentally studied. By varying the applied current for heating the cooling channel, the simulated specimen diameter, the specimen outlet pressure and the coolant flow rate, the wall temperatures of the specimen and the Jet A-1 temperatures at the specimen inlet/outlet were measured. It was found that the specimen diameter and the flow rate were important factors for the characteristics of heat transfer and the outlet pressure did not affect the performance of heat transfer. The results of the heat transfer experiments were compared with the previous Nusselt number empirical equations and novel Nusselt number empirical equations were finally derived.
