To remove heat generated during a burn-up test of nuclear fuels, the heat generation rate of nuclear fuels should be calculated accurately, and a coolant should be circulated in the test loop at an adequate flow rate. HANARO is an open pool-type reactor with an independent test loop for the burn-up test of nuclear fuels. A test rig is installed in the test loop, and a coolant is circulated through the test loop to maintain the temperature of the nuclear fuel rods within a desired temperature during an irradiation test. The components and sensors in the test rig can be broken or malfunction owing to the flow-induced vibration. In this study, a coolant flow simulation system was developed to verify and confirm the soundness of components and sensors assembled in the test rig with a high flow rate of the coolant.

국내에서 발생하는 생활폐기물 발열량이 최근 3,000 kcal/kg 정도를 웃돌고 있고 사업장 폐기물의 경우는 4,000~7,000 kcal/kg 정도로 높아 이러한 가연성 폐기물 들은 자원화하여 에너지원으로 사용가능하다. 폐기물 자원화 기술의 하나인 가스화 기술을 적용하면 폐기물 내의 가연분은 CO, $H_2$가 주성분인 합성가스로 전환되어 화학원료 또는 발전원료로서 활용이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 합성가스의 다양한 활용분야 중에서도 메탄올과 CO의 합성을 통해 얻어지는 초산제조 공정에서 폐기물의 가스화를 통해 발생되는 합성가스 내의 CO를 적용하여 기존 초산제조공정에서 필요한 CO를 생산하기 위해 소모되는 고가의 납사 원료를 절감하고자 하는 방안이 검토되고 있다. 초산은 CO와 메탄올($CH_3OH$)을 금속이온계 귀금속촉매 상에서 메탄올카본닐레이션(Methanol carbonylation)반응으로부터 합성되는 것으로, 초산에스테르, 염료, 안료, 의약품 등의 원료로 사용되는 화학원료이다. 일반적으로 초산을 제조하기 위해 사용되는 CO를 생산하기 위하여 납사(Naptha)를 가스화하는 부분산화공정을 이용하거나 촉매를 사용한 Steam reforming공정을 적용하고 있는데, 가스화 및 Steam reforming의 원료가 되는 납사가 고가이고, 원유가가 상승하면 납사의 가격도 상승할 수 있고, 결국 초산제조 비용의 상승을 초래할 수 있다. 폐기물의 가스화를 통해 발생하는 합성가스 내의 CO를 활용하여 초산제조의 원료로 사용할 수 있다면 초산제조 공정에서의 CO 제조 비용 절감 및 폐기물 자원화의 효과를 동시에 달성할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구에서는 초산제조의 원료로 폐기물의 가스화를 통해 발생한 합성가스 내의 CO를 적용가능성을 검토하기 위하여 사업장 폐기물 및 사업장폐기물과 폐유, 건조슬러지 등을 혼합한 복합폐기물의 가스화를 통해 CO의 발생 특성을 분석하였다.

As electronic devices become more advanced and smaller, one of the biggest problems to solve is the heat affecting the efficiency and lifetime of instruments. High thermal conductivity materials, in particular, metal or ceramic ones, have been used to reduce the heat generated from devices. However, due to their low mechanical properties and high weight, thermally conductive composites composed with polymers having a light-weight and good mechanical properties as a matrix and carbon materials having high thermal conductivity as a thermally conductive filler have been attracting great attention. To improve the thermal conductivity of the composites, a phonon scattering must be suppressed to move phonon effectively. In this review, we classified researches related to phonon migration and scattering inhibition of carbon/polymer composites, and discussed various methods to improve thermal conductivity.

Cure behavior and thermal stability of the different ratio of diglycidylether of bisphenol A(DGEBA)/trimethylolpropane triglycidylether(TMP) epoxy blends initiated by 1 wt % N-benzylpyrazinium hexafluoroantimonate (BPH) as a cationic latent catalyst were studied using DSC and TGA, respectively. Latent properties were performed by measurement of the conversion as a function of temperature using dynamic DSC. Dynamic DSC thermograms of DGEBA/TMP blends revealed that the weak peak was formed by complex formation between the hydroxyl groups in DGEBA and BPH, and between epoxides and BPH in low temperature ranges. The strong peak was considered as an exothermic reaction by the formation of three-dimensional network in high temperature ranges. Isothermal DSC revealed that the reaction rate of the blends was found to be higher than that of the neat TMP. The thermal stabilities in the cured resins were increased with increasing the DGEBA content. These results could be interpreted in terms of the stable aromatic structure, existence of hydroxyl group and high molecular weight of DGEBA.

The larger, loftier and more highly strengthened the recent structures become, the greater attention is paid to the problem of thermal crack occurrence associate with hydration heat. As one of methods to solve the problem, a care has been taken to the improvement of construction such as the application of pre-cooling or pipe-cooling, adjustment of concrete block size, concrete placement timing, joint arrangement and so on. But it is expected that a proper selection of cement shall additionally contribute to the control of thermal cracks. In this study, thus, we selected 4 types of cements such as Type V for anti-sulphate, blast furnace cements (slag content of 45% and 65% respectively)and ternary blended low heat cement, and carried out mock-up tests. In every assigned time, temperatures and thermal stresses were measured and calculated from raw data. As a result of measurement, it was found that the magnitude of hydration heat is in order of blast furnace slag cement. Type V and ternary blended low heat cement. Results of thermal stresses were same as the order of temperature. In addition, thermal stresses calculated from the data of strain gauges showed almost similar to those measured from effective stress gauges only when strain values were adjusted properly in accordance with initial time of stress appearance. Theoretical results agreed well with the measured values comparatively, but showed slight differences. It is inferred that these differences shall be reduced if more tests capable of evaluating thermal characteristics of concrete are carried out.

A numerical study t predict the characteristics on transient operation of the heat pipe cooling system with multiple heaters for electronic system has been performed. The heat pipe cooling system of 45 cm length and 16 mm diameter was composed of evaporator section with four heaters which simulate electronic components, insulated transport section, and condenser section with a conductor which was cooled under the constant heat flux boundary condition. Two test cases were investigated in present study; Case 1 indicated that the 1st and 2nd heaters among four heaters were heated off, while the 3rd and the 4th heaters were heated on. Case 2 was the inverse situation switched from heating locations of Case 1. Case 3 indicated that the 1st and 4th heaters among four heaters were heated off, while the 2nd and 3rd heaters were heated on. The results showed that the transient time to reach the steady state is shorter for Case 1 than for Case 2. Especially, the maximum temperature among the heaters which simulate electronic components during switching operation is relatively small compared to the maximum allowable operating temperature in electronic system. It is concluded that the heat pipe cooling system in present study operate with the good thermal reliability even for sudden switching situation of the heaters.

The heat transportation from a complex of industry to a rural area needs more efficient method because the distance between them is usually more than 10km. Conventional heat transportation using steam or hot water via pipe line has limits in transportation distance (about 3-5 km) because of the heat loss and frictional loss in the pipe line. Metal hydride can absorb or discharge hydrogen through exothermic and endothermic reaction. After releasing hydrogen from metal hydride with heatings by waste heat from industry we can transport this hydrogen to the rural area via pipe line. In the urban areas other metal hydride reacts with this hydrogen and produces heat for heating. Cool heat is also obtained if it is possible to use metal hydride with low reaction temperature. So metal hydride can be used as a media for transportation, storage of heat. Some problems of the heat transportation using metal hydrides, and the example of heat transportation system were discussed.
