A new composite manufacturing technique which combines winding and curing together is studied and analyzed. This method is especially suited to the manufacture of thick composite materials in which thermal spiking is a common problem. An experimental apparatus was designed and built for use with a filament winder to continuously cure a thick composite cylinder. A hoop-wound composite cylinder with 152 mm wall thickness was manufactured and embedded thermocouples and strain gages were monitored throughout the cure process. The experimental data were compared with analytical results.

Thermal analysis has been performed to evaluate the thermal effect on composite antenna (Ka-band) structure in space environment. The concepts of thermal control are also presented to maintain the antenna components within respective temperature limits. A steady-state algorithm of I-DEAS' thermal analysis software was utilized to predict both maximum and minimum temperature, maximum gradient temperature, and temperature distribution on each antenna component.

The thermoelastic behavior of the porous carbon/phenolic composites is studied using the thermomechanical response model of chemically decomposing composites. The model includes thermal dependence of the porous composites, porosity in the pyrolysis process, pore pressure due to decomposing gases, and shrinkage. The poroelastic coefficients are calculated based on representative volume element model and finite element analysis. The internal stress distribution caused by pores and pore pressure, and the overall deformation are verified. The effects of the poroelastic coefficients on the thermoelastic behavior are examined through numerical experiments.

PVT(Photovoltaic Thermal) 모듈은 태양광과 태양열 에너지를 동시 이용이 가능한 모듈로서 태양광전지(PV, Photovoltaic)모듈에 열교환기를 접합한 형태로 전기에너지뿐만 아니라 열에너지를 동시에 생산할 수 있는 시스템이다. 기존 PV 모듈은 일사량이 많으면 전력 생산량이 증가하는 동시에 PV모듈의 온도가 상승함에 따라 발전 효율이 감소하는 문제점이 있으며 일반적으로 $25^{\circ}C$이상 조건에서 모듈 온도가 $10^{\circ}C$ 증가할수록 발전효율의 약 4~5% 정도 감소하는 것으로 보고되고 있다. PVT 모듈은 기존 태양광모듈에 열교환기를 접합하여 냉각함으로써 PV모듈의 온도를 낮추어 발전효율을 증가시키는 동시에 부가적으로 발생하는 온수를 직접이용하거나 다양한 계통의 보조 열원으로 이용할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 수치해석기법(CFD)을 활용하여 PV모듈 냉각 및 온수 발생을 위한 열교환기를 설계하였으며 다양한 형상의 열교환기에 대해 유동해석을 수행하여 최적의 열흡수효율을 갖는 열교환기의 형상을 설계하였다. 또한 최적 설계된 PVT 모듈을 제작하여 실제 태양과 유사한 광원을 갖는 인공태양조건에서의 실내 실험을 통해 PVT 모듈의 성능을 검증하였으며 또한 실제 노상에 설치하여 ASHRAE 93-77의 실험기준과 ECN의 PVT 집열기 성능측정 가이드라인에 따라 옥외 시험평가를 하여 PVT 모듈의 성능 검증을 하였다. 최적 설계된 PVT모듈에 대한 성능평가 결과 기존 PV 모듈보다 발전효율이 약 15%(기존 발전효율 대비) 향상된 결과를 확인하였다.

The actuating performance of plate-type unimorph piezoelectric composite actuators having various stacking sequences was evaluated by three dimensional finite element analysis on the basis of thermal analogy model. Thermal residual stress distribution at each layer in an asymmetrically laminated plate with PZT ceramic layer and thermally induced dome height were predicted using classical laminated plate theory. Thermal analogy model was applied to a bimorph cantilever beam and LIPCA-C2 actuator in order to confirm its validity. Finite element analysis considering thermal residual deformation showed that the bending behavior of piezoelectric composite actuator subjected to electric loads was significantly different according to the stacking sequence, thickness of constituent PZT ceramic and boundary conditions. In particular, the increase of thickness of PZT ceramic led to the increase of the bending stiffness of piezoelectric composite actuator but it did not always lead to the decrease of actuation distance according to the stacking sequences of piezoelectric composite actuator. Therefore, it is noted that the actuating performance of unimorph piezoelectric composite actuator is rather affected by bending stiffness than actuation distance.

The present study developed a design code for preburner of staged combustion cycle engines, which calculates preburnt gas at high-pressure oxidizer-rich conditions and predicts conjugate heat transfer and hydraulics of cryogenic fluid flow through cooling passages. It has been written based on the open-source library Cantera, into which this study has incorporated new source codes to predict correctly non-ideal thermodynamics and transport anomalies of the cryogenic fluid. For a preburner of 100 tonf-class booster engine currently under preliminary design, the present code demonstrated predictive capability and usability as a design code by comparing with CFD simulation.

증발기의 형태에 따라 수치적 해석을 진행하면서 최적의 효율을 나타낼 수 있는 증발기를 설계하는 것이 중요하다. 증발기의 수치적 해석은 EES 프로그램을 이용하여 진행되었으며, 계산의 검증은 자사의 제품의 성능과 비교하면서 검증하였다. 증발기의 수치적 해석의 구성은 지배방정식과 연속방정식을 이용하여, 냉매의 총괄열전달계수, 관내외벽의 열전도율, 공기의 총괄열전달계수를 이용하여 총괄열전달계수를 계산하였으며, 총괄열전달계수를 이용하여 증발기의 열량을 계산하였다. 증발기의 수치적 해석과 자사 제품 5개의 제품과 비교하였고, 평균적으로 약 10%의 오차율을 보였다. 신뢰성이 확보된 계산식을 이용하여 Fin의 간격, 단위 질량유량, 열 교환 코일 길이, 풍량의 조건을 각각 변동시켜 증발기 열량 비교를 하며 경향성을 고찰하였다. Fin의 간격을 1mm에서 20mm으로 0.5mm 간격으로 변화 시켰을 경우, 핀 간격이 좁으면 공기 유속이 빨라져 열 교환 효율이 낮아지며, 반대로 넓어지면 냉매 유량에 비해 공기 유량이 많기 때문에 열 교환 효율이 낮아진다. 열 교환 코일 길이를 500mm에서 2400mm으로 50mm 간격으로 변화 시켰을 경우, 열 교환 코일 길이가 길어질수록 배관의 마찰력과 냉매의 온도 상승으로 인하여 공기 온도와의 온도 차이가 줄어들어 열 교환 효율은 낮아진다. 풍량을 20cmm에서 400cmm으로 10cmm 간격으로 변화 시켰을 경우, 일정 풍량 이상 올라가면 공기 유속이 빨라져서 열량이 낮아지는 경향을 보인다. 질량유량을 3g/sec에서 174g/sec으로 4.5g/sec 간격으로 변화 시켰을 경우, 질량 유량에 따라 비례적으로 열량이 높아지는 경향을 보이다가 일정 질량 유량 이상에서는 공기 풍량에 비해 냉매 유량이 많기 때문에 반비례적으로 열량이 낮아진다. 이처럼 증발기의 설계는 Fin 간격, 열 교환 코일 길이, 풍량, 질량유량 등을 복합적으로 고려하여 증발기 설계를 해야 하며, 저장고의 크기, 부하, 사용목적에 따라 최적화된 증발기를 설계하여야 한다.

An effect of coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical and chemical (THMC) behavior is an essential part of the performance and safety assessment of geological disposal systems for high-level radioactive waste and spent nuclear fuel. Furthermore, numerical models and modeling techniques are necessary to analyze and predict the coupled THMC behavior in the disposal systems. However, phenomena associated with the coupled THMC behavior are nonlinear, and the constitutive relationships between them are not well known. Therefore, it is challenging to develop numerical models and modeling techniques to analyze and predict the coupled THMC behavior in the geological disposal systems. It is also difficult to verify and validate the development of the models and techniques because it requires expensive laboratory tests and in-situ experiments that need to be performed for a long time. DECOVALEX was initiated in 1992 to efficiently develop numerical models and modeling techniques and validate the developed models and techniques against the lab and in-situ experiments. In Korea, Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute has participated in DECOVALEX-2011, DECOVALEX-2015, and DECOVALEX-2019 since 2008. In this study, all tasks in the three DECOVALEX projects were introduced to the researcher in the field of rock mechanics and geotechnical engineering in Korea.
