This study intends to provide initial evacuation distances for the public in case of accidental releases of hydrogen fluoride (HF). HF is a very toxic chemical that is widely used in the chemical, electrical, and electronics industries. Consequence modeling programs, such as ALOHA and PHAST, were used to help formulate a contingency plan in case of an HF leak. For the purpose of this study, the release of entire quantity of HF in 10 min is defined as a worst-case scenario and the release from a partial line rupture is used as an alternative case scenario as National Institute of Chemical Safety (NICS) guidelines. Once the discharge rates were calculated based on the scenarios, the ERPG-2 endpoint distances have been obtained for representative daytime and nighttime weather conditions. This paper presents graphs that can be used to enact swift evacuation orders and emergency response plans in the case of accidental releases of HF.

An analysis of laminar mixed convection flow adjacent to the inclined flat surface which is subjected to a uniform temperature in a uniform free stream is performed. Nonsimilar boundary layed equation are derived by using the mixed convection parameters such that smooth transition from the purely forced convection limit to the purely free convection limit is possible. The governing equations are solved by a finite difference method using the coupled box scheme of sixth order. Numerical results are presented for prandtl numbers of 0.7 and 7 with the angle of inclination ranging from 0 to 90 degree from the vertical. The velocity distributions for the buoyancy assisting flow exhibit a significant overshoot above the free stream value in the region of intense mixed convection and the velocity field is found to be more sensitive to the buoyancy effect than the temperature field. The separation point near the wall was obtained for the buoyancy opposing flow. The local Nusselt number increases for buoyancy assisting flow and decreases for opposing flow with increasing value of the local Grashoff number in the mixed convection parameter. For large Prandtl number, the Nusselt number and the friction factor decrease significantly near the separation point. Present numerical predictions are in good agreement with recent experimental results by Ramachandran.

As the number of elderly drivers increases, traffic accidents from the elderly also increase. In particular, the emergency situation of the elderly driver is not transmitted to the following vehicle during cloudy days and night highway accidents, so it is extended to the second and third accidents, leaving serious aftereffects. Therefore, there is an urgent need to establish an economic and effective inter-vehicle emergency communication system between the accident vehicle of the elderly and the following vehicles. In this paper, we have proposed a policy and method that can take advantage of the special emergency light pattern of an elderly driver in an emergency and transmit it to the following vehicles, thereby providing secondary accident prevention and emergency relief. Furthermore, by introducing an infrared emergency communication system between vehicles using red brake lights and implementing it as a prototype of RC-Car, we have checked the feasibility of the system.

To evaluate the sequence of event and the Thermohydraulic behavior during total loss of feedwater accident and recovery procedure, a RELAP5/MOD3 calculation is performed and compared with the LOFT L9-l/L3-3 experiment. Also, the predictability of the code for the major Thermohydraulic phenomena following the accident is assessed. As a result, it is found that a pressure control using the spray until the time the water level reaches the top of the pressurizer, an overpressure protection by pressurizer PORV, a recovery of the secondary heat removal capability by refilling steam generator, and an effective cooldown by the continued natural circulation can be performed without core uncovery. It is also found that the plant-specific evaluation is necessary to confirm the effectiveness of the current symptom-oriented emergency operating procedure, especially in an overpressure protection performance and steam generator recovery performance.

Communication problems have been regarded as one of the biggest causes in trouble in many industries. This led to extensive research on communication as a part of human error analysis. The results of existing researches have revealed that maintaining a good quality of communication is essential to secure the safety of a large and complex process system. In this paper, we suggested a method to measure the quality of communication during off-normal situation in main control room of nuclear power plants. It evaluates the cosine similarity that is a measure of sentence similarity between two operators by finding the cosine of the angle between them. To check the applicability of the method to evaluate communication quality, we compared the result of communication quality analysis with the result of operation performance that was performed by operators under simulated environment.

최근 태풍, 집중호우로 인한 홍수피해가 빈번히 발생함하고 있다. 특히 상류에 저수지가 있을 경우 홍수조절을 통해 하류지역의 홍수피해를 저감하기도 하지만 급작스런 방류량의 증가 등으로 인해 하류지역의 피해가 증가되는 경우도 있다. 따라서 하류지역 홍수피해 저감을 위해 저수지의 홍수관리기능에 대한 관심도가 높아지고 있다. 대규모 다목적댐의 경우 다양한 저수지운영룰을 통해 수문을 운영하고 있어 홍수조절기능을 충분히 수행하고 있지만, 농업용저수지는 홍수관리에 있어 수문조작 전문성의 부족과 운영룰의 미정립 등으로 인해 취약성을 가지고 있는 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 수문이 설치된 1백만m³이상의 저수지 중 성주저수지를 연구대상저수지로 선정하였다. 비상수문을 통한 사전방류방안과, 저수지운영을 연구하여 농업용저수지의 홍수조절용량 확보를 위한 사전방류방안에 대해 연구하였다. 저수지운영은 Auto ROM을 적용하였고 홍수조절용량 확보를 위하여 홍수기 수위관리기법 중 사전방류기법을 채택하였다. 사전방류기법은 모의기법에 의한 사전방류와 최적화기법에 의한 최적사전방류량을 결정하는 방법으로 연구하였다. 홍수기의 제한수위는 유효저수량의 70%인 EL.179.7m, 65%인 EL.178.8m, 60%인 EL.177.8m로 설정하여 분석하였다. 모의기법에 의한 사전방류방법은 초기수위는 만수위에서부터 1.0m씩 감소하였고, 비상수문은 0.5m씩 개방하여 4.0m까지 개방 하였다. 사전방류의 시간은 24hrs, 48hrs를 적용하였다. 최적화기법에 의한 사전방류방법은 초기수위는 모의기법과 동일하고 목표수위를 제한수위(70%, 65%, 60%)가 되는 최적방류량을 산정하고 최적방류량을 방류할 수 있는 수문의 개방높이를 분석하였다. 2012년, 2020년의 호우사상에 대해 사전방류가 없는 경우와 모의기법, 최적화기법에 의한 사전방류결과를 적용한 경우를 비교하여 검토하였다. 그 결과 제한수위 70%를 유지할 경우 2012년은 모의기법이 5.6%, 최적화기법이 5.4%의 방류량 감소효과가 있으며 2020년은 모의기법이 9.0%, 최적화기법이 8.8%의 방류량 감소효과가 있는 것으로 검토되었다.

Concrete materials subjected to impact by high velocity projectiles exhibit responses that differ from those when they are under static loading. Projectiles generate localized effects characterized by penetration of front, spalling of rear and perforation as well as more widespread crack propagation. The magnitude of damage depends on a variety of factors such as material properties of the projectile, impact velocity, the mass and geometry as well as the material properties of concrete specimen size and thickness, reinforcement materials type and method of the concrete target. In this study, penetration depth of front, spalling thickness of rear and effect of spalling suppression of concrete by fiber reinforcement was evaluated according to compressive strength of concrete. As a result, it was similar to results of the modified NDRC formula and US ACE formula that the more compressive strength is increased, the penetration depth of front is suppressed. On the other hand, the increase in compressive strength of concrete does not affect spalling of rear suppression. Spalling of rear is controlled by the increase of flexural, tensile strength and deformation capacity.

Cement composites subjected to high-velocity projectile shows local failure and it can be suppressed by improvement of flexural toughness with reinforcement of fiber. Therefore, researches on impact resistance performance of cement composites are in progress and a number of types of fiber reinforcement are being developed. Since bonding properties of fiber with matrix, specific surface area and numbers of fiber are different by fiber reinforcement type, mechanical properties of fiber reinforced cement composites and improvement of impact resistance performance need to be considered. In this study, improvement of flexural toughness and failure reduction effect by impact of high-velocity projectile have been evaluated according to fiber type by mixing steel fiber, polyamide, nylon and polyethylene which are have different shape and mechanical properties. As results, flexural toughness was improved by redistribution of stress and crack prevention with bridge effect of reinforced fibers, and scabbing by high-velocity impact was suppressed. Since it is possible to decrease scabbing limit thickness from impact energy, thickness can be thinner when it is applied to protection. Scabbing of steel fiber reinforced cement composites was occurred and it was observed that desquamation of partial fragment was suppressed by adhesion between fiber and matrix. Scabbing by high-velocity impact of synthetic fiber reinforced cement composites was decreased by microcrack, impact wave neutralization and energy dispersion with a large number of fibers.
