화염중에 존재하는 이온 및 전자의 전기적 성질을 이용하여 연소실내의 화염전파속도를 파악하기 위해 실린더 헤드에 이온 프로브를 삽입하여 천연가스 및 가솔린의 화염전파속도를 측정하였다. 본 연구에 이용된 이온전류장치 설계에 의한 방법은 광학적 측정 장비에 비해 간단하며 쉽게 측정할 수 있고 가격도 저렴하고 응답성도 우수하였다. 이온 프로브의 제작과 신호처리에 관한 기초적인 지식을 얻었으며 천연가스 및 가솔린의 연소시 연소압력의 상승지점과 이온발생지점이 일관성있게 나타났다. 기관회전수의 증가에 따라서 연소실내의 화염전파속도가 증가했으며 같은 연소조건이라고 할 수 있는 동일 기관회전수, 당량비의 조건에서 점화시간에 대한 화염전파속도를 비교해 보면 메탄의 경우가 이론치보다 6 ms∼9 ms 정도 늦었다. 또한, 메탄가스 및 가솔린에 대해 이온 전류강도 및 화염 도달시간을 측정하였으며 연소실 벽면에서는 열전달에 의한 냉각효과로인해 화염 전파속도 및 이온농도가 감소했다.

Fully developed turbulent flow through three concentric annuli with both the rough inner and outer walls was experimentally investigated for a Reynolds number range Re=15,000-85,000. Measurements were made of the pressure drop, the positions of zero shear stress and maximum velocity, and the velocity distributions in annuli of radius ratios, ${\alpha}=0.26$, 0.4 and 0.56, respectively. The experimental results showed that the positions of zero shear streess and maximum velocity were only weakly dependent on the Reynolds number. It was also found that the position of zero shear stress was not coincident with that of maximum velocity. Furthmore, the former was influenced more sensitively than the latter on the square-ribbed roughness along the axial direction.

A Numerical study on two-dimensional laminar natural convection with and without surface radiation in fully or partially open square cavity was performed. The cavity has one vertical heated wall facing a vertical opening and two horizontal insulated walls. The pressure boundary condition was applied to the opening instead of the velocity boundary condition. The results of this study showed that the increase of partition length decreased the convective and the radiative Nusselt numbers. It was also found that the increase of wall emissivity decreased the convective Nusselt numbers but increased the radiative Nusselt numbers.

핵융합 플라즈마에서 연료 주입과 불순물 제거는 매우 중요한 과제로서 이를 해결하기 위한 방법으로 Glow Discharge Cleaning, ICRF Wall Conditioning과 같은 방법들을 이용한다. 최근 중국의 EAST 토카막 등에서 이러한 방법보다 보다 간소하고 효과적인 방법의 일환으로 수십에서 수백 kHZ의 HF 대역의 교류전원을 이용하여 플라즈마를 발생하고 이를 토카막 벽면의 Wall Conditioning에 적용하는 방법을 시도했다. 본 연구는 이러한 HF 플라즈마를 KSTAR 토카막 Wall Conditioning에 걱용하기 위한 예비 실험으로 선형 플라즈마 발생장치에 30kHZ 2kW급의 HF 파워를 이용하여 플라즈마를 발생하였다. 운전 압력에 따라 전압과 전류 특성을 파악하고 Langmuir probe를 이용하여 플라즈마 밀도와 온도들의 parameter를 측정하였다. 본 발표에서는 구체적인 플라즈마 발생장치를 소개하고 플라즈마 방전 특성과 parameter들을 보고할 예정이다.

An experimental study was carried out to determine the correlation between the internal flow in a circular nozzle and elliptical nozzles with the external flow. The flow rate, spray angle and drop size were measured under various conditions of the injection pressure. Numerical simulations were attempted to investigate the internal flow structure in the elliptical nozzles, because the experimental study was limited in its measurements of flow velocity and pressure distributions in the relatively small orifice. In the case of the elliptical nozzles, the disintegration characteristics of the liquid jet were significantly different from those of the circular nozzle. Surface breakup was observed at the jet issued from the elliptical nozzles with injection pressure. This is due to the internal flow structure, which is reattached to the orifice wall at the minor axis plane of the elliptical nozzle, unlike that observed with the circular nozzle.

For accurate estimation over the change of pressure and temperature of the vessel during blowdown period, a new dynamic blowdown model was developed in this work. In particular, heat transfer from the vessel wall to discharge gas at both laminar or turbulent flow in the vessel was embedded to the model to increase the accuracy of blowdown estimation. For thermodynamics, the whole blowdown period was discretized into finite pressure decrement steps, and the step size was adjusted so that the calculation can be more efficiently carried out, while maintaining the model's accuracy. Both Peng-Robinson and Soave-Redlich-Kwong equation of states were applied to the model, and the results were compared each other. Finally, the simulation results was compared with Haque and coworkers' experimental results, and it proved high accuracy of the model.

An experimental study of thermal transport from a uniformly heated pipe to a pulsating flow has been carried out. Surface of the pipe is imposed with constant heat flux providing by electric heating band. This problem is of particular interest in the design of Stirling engine heat exchangers and in understanding the blood flow in the aorta. Temporal Variatiens of temperature and pressure inside the circular pipe are measured. The dependence of temperature distributions and heat transfer rate on the mean flow rate in the pipe and on the pulsating frequency is investigated in detail. The experimental results indicate that the measured temporal variations of temperature and pressure become nearly sinusoidal The amplitude of temperature variation near the pipe wall is much more substantial than that in core of the pipe. It is also found that the heat transfer rate is increased significantly as the frequency of the pulsating pressure is increased or the mean flow rate in a pipe is increased. The results obtained are also compared with those for non-pulsating flow circumstance.

고체 추진제를 사용하는 추진 시스템을 개발하는데 가장 커다란 문제로 인식되고 있는 것은 추진제의 연소 특성을 이해하는 일이다. 그 중에서도 연소실의 압력 진동과 추진제 벽면으로 흡수되는 복사 열전달에 의한 연소율(burning rate)의 변화로 인하여 발생하는 연소 불안정에 대한 이해는 아직도 완전히 규명되지 않고 있다. 고체 추진제의 연소 불안정에 대한 이론적 해석은 준-정상 1차원 해석(Quasi-Steady Homogeneous One-Dimension) 방법에 의하여 단순화된 지배방정식을 해석하는 것이 일반적으로 잘 알려져 있는 방법이다. 이 가정은 고체 추진제가 연수되는 영역을 두께가 매우 얇은 영역의 표면반응영역(surface reaction layer)과 화학반응이 없는 응축상태영역(condensed phase zone) 그리고 기체상태의 연료와 화염이 존재하는 기체상태영역(gas phase zone) 등의 3영역으로 구분하며, 기체상태영역에서 발생하는 교란에 대한 응축상태영역의 반응시간 크기(response time scale)가 매우 크기 때문에 응축상태영역의 반응은 준 정상적으로 일어난다고 가정하는 것이다.그러나, 연소실의 온도가 $3000^{\circ}K$ 정도의 높은 온도이어서 복사 열전달에 의한 고체 추진제의 가열이 중요한 열전달 방법으로 작용하게 되므로 이를 무시한 이론적 해석은 물리적인 중요성이 약하여질 수밖에 없다. 본 연구에서는 기체영역으로부터 전달되는 복사 열전달은 투명(transparent)한 표면반응영역을 통과하여 응축상태영역에서 모두 흡수되며 추진제 표면에서의 복사열방출(emission)을 고려하였다. 또한 연소불안정 현상을 해석하기 위하여 표면반응영역에서의 경계조건은 선형교란량으로 대치하는 Zn(Zeldovich-Novozhilov) 방법을 사용하였다. 이 방법은 기체상태영역에 대한 구체적인 해석없이도 연소불안정 현상을 해석할 수 있는 장점이 잇다. 즉 응축상태영역에서의 연소율과 표면온도는 각각 기체영역으로부터 전달되는 온도구배와 연소압력, 그리고 복사 열전달의 함수관계이므로 선형교란에 의한 추진제표면에서의 교란경계조건을 얻을 수 잇으며, 응축영역의 교란지배방정식과 함께 사용하여 압력교란과 복사 열전달의 교란에 대한 연소율의 교란 증감 여부를 판단하여 연소 불안정 현상을 해석할 수 있다.

Startability and harmful emissions are the main issues in diesel engine development under cold conditions. The characteristics of combustion with multiple injection were investigated under cold start conditions. For quantitative analysis, the in-chamber pressure profile was measured and combustion visualization using direct imaging was accomplished. With multiple injection, the peak in-chamber pressure and heat release rate were increased compared to single injection. In addition, the period of flame luminosity detection was shortened using multiple injection. Combustion by main injection was improved with an increase in heat released by pilot combustion when the pilot injection quantity was increased. Finally, an increase in injection pressure also showed the possibility of combustion improvement. On the other hand, an increase of in the pilot injection quantity and injection pressure can cause an increase in harmful emissions, such as HC and CO due to wall wetting. Therefore, more sensitive calibration will be needed when applying a multiple injection strategy under cold start conditions.

On March 11, 2011, a massive earthquake measuring 9.0 on the Richter scale and subsequent 10-.14 m waves struck the Fukushima Daiichi (FD) Nuclear Power Plant. The main and backup electric power was damaged preventing the cooling system from functioning. Fuel rods overheated and led to hydrogen explosions. If heat in the fuel rods is not dissipated, the nuclear fuel coating material (e.g., Zircaloy) reacts with water vapor to generate hydrogen at high temperatures. This hydrogen is released into the containment area. If the released hydrogen burns, the stability of the containment area is significantly impacted. In this study, researchers performed an explosion analysis in a high-risk explosion area, analyzing the hydrogen distribution in a containment building [1] and the effects of a hydrogen explosion on containment safety. Results indicated that a hydrogen explosion was possible throughout the containment building except the middle area. If an explosion occurs at the top of the containment building with more than 40% of the hydrogen collected or in the bottom right or left side of the of containment building, safety of the containment building could be threatened.
