Self-potential (SP) is sensitive to groundwater flow and there are many causes to generate SP. Among many mechanisms of SP, pore-fluid flow in porous media can generate potential without any external current source, which is referred to as electrokinetic potential or streaming potential. When calculating SP responses on the surface due to geothermal fluid within an engineered geothermal system (EGS) reservoir, SP anomaly is usually considered to be generated by fluid injection or production within the reservoir. However, SP anomaly can also result from geothermal water fluid within EGS reservoirs experiencing temperature changes between injection and production wells. For more precise simulation of SP responses, we developed an algorithm being able to take account of SP anomalies produced by not only water injection and production but also the fluid of geothermal water, based on three-dimensional finite-element-method employing tetrahedron elements; the developed algorithm can simulate electrical potential responses by both point source and volume source. After verifying the developed algorithm, we assumed a simple geothermal reservoir model and analyzed SP responses caused by geothermal water injection and production. We are going to further analyze SP responses for geothermal water in the presence of water production and injection, considering temperature distribution and geothermal water flow in the following research.

본 연구에서는 기설구조물에 대한 손상도 추정기법과 내진능력평가 방법에 대하여 연구하였다. 구조물의 손상도를 추정하는 방법으로는 소수의 계측 데이터를 이용한 모드섭동법(inverse modal perturbation)을 이용하였다. 구조물의 손상은 강성행렬의 감소로 표현하여, 각 요소행렬에 대한 손상을 손상지수를 사용하여 나타내었다. 구조적 손상과 이에 기인한 고유진동 특성의 변화량과의 관계를 섭동방정식으로부터 구한 후, 이로부터 손상지수와 고유진동 특성의 변화량과의 관계를 유동하였다. 따라서 손상 전과 후에서 구조물의 고유진동수와 모드형상을 측정하여 섭동식의 해를 구함으로써 구조물의 강성행렬의 감소로 나타나는 구조물의 손상도를 추정하게 된다. 손상도 추정에 의해 평가된 강성의 변화량에 기인한 손상 후의 기설구조물의 지진응답, 내진능력과 지진손상도의 평가를 손상전과 비교하였다. 내진능력은 구조부재에서 회전연성도 능력의 경험식을 이용하여 평가하였고, 지진손상도의 평가는 가장 많이 사용되는 방법인 Park & Ang 방법을 사용하였다. 예제해석은 다른 지진하중을 받는 2층과 8층의 예제구조물에 대해서 수행하였다.

Ginkgo leaves are considered waste biomass and can cause problems due to the strong insecticidal actions of ginkgolide A, B, C, and J and bilobalide. However, Ginkgo leaf biomass has high organic matter content that can be converted into fuels and chemicals if suitable technologies can be developed. In this study, the effect of pyrolysis temperature, minimum fluidized velocity, and Ginkgo leaf size on product yields and product properties were systematically analyzed. Fast pyrolysis was conducted in a bubbling fluidized bed reactor at 400 to 550℃ using silica sand as a bed material. The yield of pyrolysis liquids ranged from 33.66 to 40.01 wt%. The CO₂ and CO contents were relatively high compared to light hydrocarbon gases because of decarboxylation and decarbonylation during pyrolysis. The CO content increased with the pyrolysis temperature while the CO₂ content decreased. When the experiment was conducted at 450℃ with a 3.0×U_mf fluidized velocity and a 0.43 to 0.71 mm particle size, the yield was 40.01 wt% and there was a heating value of 30.17 MJ/kg, respectively. The production of various phenol compounds and benzene derivatives in the bio-oil, which contains the high value products, was identified using GC-MS. This study demonstrated that fast pyrolysis is very robust and can be used for converting Ginkgo leaves into fuels and thus has the potential of becoming a method for waste recycling.

본 연구에서는 난류경계층 압력유동을 받는 구조물의 탄성응력파의 전파특성을 파동역할을 이용하여 해석하였다. 기존의 연구에서는 직각좌표계를 이용하여 난류운동이 동일한 한 방향으로 흐르는 경우에 대해 탄성응력파의 전파특성을 해석하였으나, 본 연구에서는 유체가 구조물의 표면에 수직으로 입사하여 방사형으로 흘러나갈 경우에 발생하는 탄성응력파의 전파 특성을 극좌표계를 이용하여 해석하였다. 또한 기초 구조물의 깊이방향으로 전파되는 탄성응력파를 감소시키기 위해 기초구조물의 표면에 접착시키는 탄성중합체층을 설계하는데 보다 효율적으로 응용할 수 있는 단순화된 1자유도계 모델을 유도하였다.

Circulating Fluidized Bed(CFB) combustion has the several advantages which are the fuel flexibility, the economy, the efficiency and the environment. It is necessary to apply a renewable energy to produce electricity due to the Renewable Portfolio Standard(RPS) mandates recently. So, in this study, co-combustion with a coal and a wood pellet was investigated to evaluate the combustibility and the environment as function of blending ratio of them in a Lab-scale CFB reactor. To investigate the characteristics of the co-combustion, the blending ratio which is the weight of wood pellet by the total calorific value of the supplied, was considered. Bed material was a river sand(No. 7). As increasing the blending ratio, the exhausted gas emissions such as CO, NOx, HC and SOx were decreased. But in case of wood pellet over 30%, CO, HC and SOx emission were increased. And the gas temperatures at the downstream were decreased.

An Experimental study was conducted on the flow characteristics and interference heating caused by a two-dimensional object protruding from a flat plate using a blow-down type of hypersonic wind tunnel. Inflow condition was a free-stream Mach number of 7.0 and a unit Reynolds number of $2.0{\times}10^6/m$. Experimental conditions were varied with three heights of protuberance for two flat plate models which have different lengths. Experimental data were obtained from Schlieren visualization images and heat flux measurements. Also, this paper suggests hypersonic experimental techniques such as boundary-layer detection method in detail. A Large separation region was observed in front of the protuberance and that region was very sensitive to the height of protuberance and the length of the flat plate. For only the highest protuberance, a severe jump of heat flux was observed at the top station among the measuring points. Measured heat flux is large when the height of protuberance is large and the length of flat plate is long.

The performance of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) is strongly related to the water flow and accumulation in the gas diffusion layer (GDL) and catalyst layer. Understanding the behavior of fluid from the characteristics of the media is crucial for the improvement of the performance and design of the GDL. In this paper, a numerical method is proposed to calculate the design parameters of the GDL, i.e., permeability, tortuosity, and effective diffusivity. The fluid flow in a channel filled with randomly packed hard spheres is simulated to validate the method. The flow simulation was performed by lattice Boltzmann method with bounce back condition for the solid volume fraction in the porous media, with different values of porosities. Permeability, which affects the flow, was calculated from the average pressure drop and the velocity in the porous media. Tortuosity, calculated by the ratio the average path length of the randomly injected massless particles to the thickness of the porous media, and the resultant effective diffusivity were in good agreement with the theoretical model. The suggested method can be used to calculate the parameters of real GDL accurately without any modification.

한국 남동해역 대륙붕에서 취득된 고해상 탄성파 탐사자료와 퇴적물 시료의 분석에 의하면 후 제4기 퇴적층은 마지막 빙하기 이후의 해수면 변화에 의해 조절되는 저해수면계열, 해침계열, 고해수면계열로 구성된다. 시퀀스 경계면 위의 저해수면계열(층서단위 I)은 마지막 빙하기 동안 퇴적된 니질사 혹은 사질니 퇴적물로 구성되며 대륙붕단과 해곡의 외해역에 분포한다. 해침면과 최대 해침면 사이에 위치하는 해침계열(층서단위 II)은 지난 15,000-6,000년 사이에 퇴적되었으며 주로 사질퇴적물로 구성된다. 해침계열은 연구해역 전반에 걸쳐 넓게 분포하지만 저해수면계열과 고해수면계열에 비해 박층으로 분포한다. 이러한 해침계열은 분포특성에 따라 3개의 소퇴적단위로 세분된다. 즉, 대륙붕단의 초기해침계열(Unit IIa), 중간대륙붕의 중기해침계열(Unit IIb), 내대륙붕의 후기해침계열(Unit IIc)등으로 이들은 후배열층서의 특성을 가진다. 최대해침면 상부에 놓이는 고해수면계열(층서단위 III)은 해수면이 현 수준에 도달한 지난 약 6,000년 이후에 퇴적된 현생 니질 퇴적물로 구성되며 내대륙붕의 연안을 따라 제한적으로 분포한다.

Pyrolysis of biomass is one of the promising methods to obtain energy and valuable chemical stocks. Fast pyrolysis of Q. acutissima and L. letolepis has been carried out in a bubbling fluidized bed reactor to determine the optimum operating conditions of the pyrolyzer. Effects of reaction temperature, Uo/Umf, L/D ratio, and feed rate have been determined and the optimum conditions are as follows: $T\;=\;400^{\circ}C,\;U_o/U_{mf}\;=\;3.0,\;L/D\;=\;2.0$. Maximum yield of bio-oil was about 55% and the main compositions were carbohydrates, guaiacols, furans, phenols, and syringols. Product gas was consists of CO, $CO_2$, light hydrocarbons and the measured gas yield using the compositions agreed with the calculated value.
