원자력발전소의 주증기관은 증기발생기와 터빈을 연결하는 주요 계통으로서 여기서 발생하는 배관진동은 주요기기의 연결부, 밸브, 배관지지물과 건물 등에 복합적인 반복하중을 가하여 관련 지지물 및 구조물에 열화현상을 발생시켜 발전소의 안전운전에 심각한 영향을 초래할 가능성을 항상 내포하고 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 배관진동 대책은 대부분 지지물을 추가로 설치하여 진동준위만 낮추고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 구체적인 배관진동의 예측, 측정 및 평가, 감쇠방안에 이르는 종합적이고 체계적인 연구가 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 지지물의 열화현상 및 부분적인 파손으로 진동준위가 높아진 것으로 추정되는 원자력발전소 주증기관의 진동특성 및 요인을 분석하여 진동감쇠 방안을 도출하고 검증함으로써 배관 및 주변 구조물의 건전성을 확보하고 설비의 신뢰성을 확보하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 주증기관을 모델링하여 해석하였으며, 발전소의 기동 및 정상운전시의 진동준위를 측정하였다. 또한 발전소의 정진기간중 일부 배관계에 대한 실험적 모우드 해석을 수행하였다. 여러가지 진동감쇠 방안을 검토하여 탄성지지 및 에너지 흡수효과를 동시에 발휘할 수 있는 특수 지지물(WEAR$_{TM}$)을 설치하는 방안을 도출하였으며, 현장에 설치한 후 배관의 진동상태를 확인함으로서 효과적인 방안임을 검증하였다.

원전 배관계통에 LBB를 적용하면 배관파단으로 인한 동적영향(dynamic effect)을 고려하지 않아도 되므로 각종 구조물의 설계가 단순해지고, 배관파단에 대비해 설치하였던 각종 지지구조물들을 제거할 수 있으므로 설계비용 절감 등 경제적 이점을 얻을 수 있다. 본 논문의 목적은 차세대원전 안전주입 및 정지냉각계통 배관에 대해 설계초기단계에서 LBB적용 여부를 판단할 수 있는 배관평가선도를 개발하는 것이다. 이를 위해 먼저 배관재료의 응력-변형률곡선을 사용하여 감지가능한 균열길이를 산출하였으며, 3차원 유한요소해석과 배관재료의 파괴저항곡선을 이용한 균열안정성평가를 수행하여 배관평가선도를 개발하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 배관평가선도를 배관설계초기단계에 사용하면 LBB적용여부로 인한 설계변경과정이 불필요하므로 전체공기를 단축할 수 있으며, 특정한 배관계통이 아닌 일반 배관계통에 적용할 수 있으므로 LBB해석회수를 상당히 줄일 수 있다.

The objective of this study was to evaluate structural safety according to environmental conditions acting on the piping of offshore structure and the motion of the structure. As for conditions acting on the piping, the maximum and minimum temperature conditions were used to analyze the design conditions of N2 generator. The motion of the structure was calculated and applied according to the DNV(Det Norske Veritas) rule. Each condition was combined and a total of 26 load combinations were constructed according to thermal load, motion load, and presence or absence of pipe support. Analysis was performed using a commercial program MSC Patran/Nastran. Thermal analysis was performed by applying the steady-state method, Sol 153. Thermal-structural coupled analysis was performed using Sol 101, a linear-static method. As a result of the analysis, the stress tended to increase when temperature inside the pipe was lower in Set 1 and Set 2, when temperature was higher in Set 3, and when the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the pipe in Set 4 was increased. However, the sum of stresses in the condition with only temperature load and the condition with only the kinetic load did not show the same value as the stress in the composite load condition of two loads. That is, the influence of the motion load varied depending on the direction of motion, the arrangement of pipes, and the position of the support. Therefore, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the size and direction of the motion load acting on the piping, the arrangement of the piping, and the location of the pipe supports during the design of piping.

Piping systems are crucial facilities used in various industries, particularly in areas related to daily life and safety. Piping systems are fixed to the main structures of buildings and facilities but do not support external loads and serve as non-structural elements performing specific functions. Piping systems are affected by relative displacements owing to phase differences arising from different behaviors between two support points under seismic loads; this can cause damage owing to the displacement-dominant cyclic behavior. Fittings and joints in piping systems are representative elements that are vulnerable to seismic loads. To evaluate the seismic performance and limit states of fittings and joints in piping systems, a high-stroke actuator is required to simulate relative displacements. However, this is challenging because only few facilities can conduct these experiments. Therefore, element-level experiments are required to evaluate the seismic performance and limit states of piping systems connected by fittings and joints. This study proposed a method to evaluate the seismic performance of an elbow specimen that includes fittings and joints that are vulnerable to seismic loads in vertical piping systems. The elbow specimen was created by connecting straight pipes to both ends of a 90° pipe elbow using flexible groove joints. The seismic performance of the elbow specimen was evaluated using a cyclic loading protocol based on deformation angles. To determine the margin of the evaluated seismic performance, the limit states were assessed by applying cyclic loading with a constant amplitude.

우주발사체 발사를 위해서는 발사대시스템 개발이 필수적이다. 발사대시스템은 기계설비와 추진제공급설비, 관제설비로 구성되며, 그 중 기계설비는 발사지지대(Launch Pad), 이렉터(Erector), 트랜스포터이렉터(Transport-Erector), 케이블마스트(Cable-mast), 자동체결장치(Auto-coupling Device) 총 다섯 부분으로 나눌 수 있다. 발사지지대는 발사 전까지 발사체를 지지하는 구조물로 발사체의 안전을 보장하고 공급배관 및 통신라인의 경로를 제공한다. 이렉터는 발사준비과정에서 수평으로 이송된 발사체를 2개의 대형 유압실린더를 사용하여 기립시키는 장비로 발사 취소 시 발사체를 수평으로 전환한다. 트랜스포터이렉터는 조립공간에서 조립을 마치고 최종점검이 완료된 발사체를 전용차량을 이용하여 발사대로 이동하고 발사체를 안전하게 잡아준다. 자동체결장치는 지상으로부터 발사체로 연결되는 추진제, 압축가스 등의 연결배관을 자동으로 연결/분리하는 장치이다. 케이블마스트는 우주발사체 상단부의 UCU-E(Umbilical Connectors Unit-Electrical)를 통해서 전기, 고압가스, 고온공기 등을 공급하기 위한 통로로 발사 전까지 발사체시스템과 지상장비와의 통신수단이다. 또한 발사체로 연결되는 라인들을 발사 시에 나오는 후류에 의한 충격으로부터 보호하고, UCU-E가 기계적으로 분리되도록 구성되어 있다. 본 논문은 기존에 적용된 케이블마스트에 대한 구성, 기능 및 운용절차에 관한 것으로, 현재 진행 중인 한국형발사체 개발을 위한 기초 자료조사로 활용하고자 한다.

It is an essential subject to decrease the mass of a launch vehicle for improving performance and efficiency of space launch system. Particularly, reducing the engine supporting area is necessary for high efficiency of propulsion system with clustered engine systems. The engine supporting area is related to the branch location of the oxidizer feeding line. This article deals the performance variation of the propulsion system such as the mass of the oxidizer feeding line, pressurization pressure of the oxidizer tank, and the onset of nucleation boiling in the oxidizer pipe with the branch location of the main feeding line.

In the existing study of steel beams with openings, openings are located at a location where the distance to the support point is equal to or greater than the section height. Considering the facilities using the openings in the steel beam, the distance from the opening to the support point may be closer than the height of the beam section. Therefore, research on this is needed. This study is an experimental study to understand the structural performance of beams with openings close to the ends subjected to Cyclic Loading. In addition, in this study, we want to understand the structural performance through experiments on beams with openings reinforced with vertical or horizontal steel plates.

A spudcan is mounted on the lower leg of the jack-up rig, a device for preventing a rollover of a structure and to support the structure in a stable sea floor. At the time of inserting the surface of the spud can to penetrate when the sand layer is stable and smoothly pulled to the clay layer, and at that time of recovery when uploading the spud can is equipped with a water injection device. In this study, it is significant to optimize the shape of pipelines holes for water injection device and it was set in two kinds of shape, the oval and round. Interpretation of the subject into the site of Gulf of Mexico offshore Wind Turbine Installation Vessels (WTIV) was chosen as a target platform. Using the ANSYS Workbench commercial programs, optimal design was conducted. The results of this study can be applied to the hole-shaped design of various marine structures.
