Artificial icing test and wind tunnel test can be performed to reduce the development period when a rotorcraft is required operation under icing situations. Artificial icing test of the KUH(Korean Utility Helicopter) was performed in advance to verify anti-icing and de-icing performance before natural icing test. Although high-precision sensor, the CCP(Cloud Combination Probe) is used to measure icing test condition parameters such as LWC(Liquid Water Content) and MVD(Median Volume Diameter), the measured values need to be verified in various methods due to the possibility of uncertainties which are the test atmosphere environment, sensor errors, and etc. The calculated LWC from the ice thickness cumulated on the fuselage of the KUH is compared to the measured value by CCP, and the results show the effective indirect method to check the test conditions.

The accumulated ice and snow during the operation of aircraft and railway vehicles can degrade aerodynamic performance or damage the major components of vehicles. Therefore, it is crucial to predict the temporal growth of ice for operational safety. Numerical simulation of ice is widely used owing to the fact that it is economically cheaper and free from similarity problems compared to experimental methods. However, numerical simulation of ice generally divides the analysis into multi-step and assumes the quasi-steady assumption that considers every time step as steady state. Although this method enables efficient analysis, it has a disadvantage in that it cannot track continuous ice evolution. The purpose of this study is to construct a surrogate model that can predict the temporal evolution of ice shape using reduced-order modeling. Reduced-order modeling technique was validated for various ice shape generated under 100 different icing conditions, and the effect of the number of training data and the icing conditions on the prediction error of model was analyzed.

This paper presents a bridge road surface frost prediction and monitoring system. The node sensing hardware comprises microprocessor, temperature sensors, humidity sensors and Zigbee wireless communication. A software interface is implemented the control center to monitor and acquire the temperature and humidity data of bridge road surface. A bridge road surface frost occurs when the bridge deck temperature drops below the dew point and the freezing point. Measurement data was used for prediction of road surface frost occurrences. The actual alert is performed at least 30 minutes in advance the road surface frost. The road surface frost occurrences data are sent to nearby drivers for traffic accidents prevention purposes.

송전 및 배전선 선로에 사용되는 핵심 부품인 ACSR (Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced, 강심 알루미늄 연선) cable은 우수한 기계적 성질, 가벼운 중량, 내부식성 특징을 가지고 있어 송전 및 배전선 선로에 핵심 부품으로 사용된다. 하지만, 국내외 혹한 다설 지역에 설치된 ACSR cable에서 빙설해로 인한 단락 또는 지락 사고가 지속적으로 발생하고 있다. 빙설해에 의한 송전선로의 고장은 급격한 전압 강하로 인해 전기 품질에 큰 영향을 주어 민원제기의 주요 원인이 되며, 고장의 파급효과가 국지적으로 발생하지 않고 광범위하게 발생하는 특징이 있기 때문에 이에 대한 대응이 필요한 실정이다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 ACSR cable의 주 소재인 알루미늄에 대한 판상(Plate) 결빙강도 파악 및 결빙방지 소재개발 연구가 국내외에서 활발히 진행 중이나, 실제 원형의 전선다발이 나선형으로 감겨있는 구조의 ACSR cable 결빙 접합강도를 시험을 통해서 명확히 제시한 연구결과는 아직 보고된 바 없다. 본 연구에서는 실제 송전용 ACSR cable을 대상으로 얼음 간의 주 전단 응력, 파단에너지 등의 결빙특성을 정량적으로 측정할 수 있는 3D 스캔을 활용한 결빙특성 평가시험기를 개발하고, 345kV급 ACSR cable에 대한 결빙특성을 평가결과를 제시하였다. 또한 ACSR cable에 현재 상용화되고 있는 결빙방지 코팅소재를 적용함으로써 코팅소재의 적합성을 ARF(Adhesion reduction factor) 지표를 통해서 비교 평가한 결과를 포함한다.

Aircraft ice protection systems are applied to the window shield, engine inlet, and wings to protect the aircraft from ice that may form on the surfaces of aircraft and sensors during operation. Icing on the aircraft can cause serious accidents by degrading the flight stability of the aircraft and by malfunctions in sensors such as the air data probe. Various types of ice protection systems have been developed for aircraft in the past. The electro-thermal type ice protection system contributes greatly to improving energy efficiency in a relatively simple structure, and has established itself as one of most popular ice protection systems for modern aircraft. In this review, two representative ice protection systems-hot-air and electro-thermal types-were intensively analyzed, and the prospect of ice protection systems was discussed based on the current status and application cases.

Anti-icing system can reduce traffic accidents and congestion by quickly removing the frozen road surface area. there is no decision criteria for determining application of the Anti-icing system in Korea. In this study, we proposed the decision criteria for determining application of the anti-icing system based on weather and road conditions, i.e., geometric and topographic conditions. Regional climate survey, Solar Radiation analysis, and dynamic vehicle simulation considered road geometry was conducted to standardize the installation method of anti-icing system. Also, we have developed a software that can be determined an installation of anti-icing system.

In the previous studies, the validation of numerical codes has been conducted based on the qualitative comparison of predicted ice shapes with experiments, which poses a significant limit on the systematic analysis of ice shapes due to the variation of meteorological conditions. In response to this, the numerical code has been quantitatively validated against available experiment for the ice accretion on cylinders and airfoils in the present study. Ice shapes accumulated on the bodies are systematically investigated with respect to various icing parameters. To this end, maximum thickness, heading direction and ice thickness are quantified and expressed in the polar coordinate system for the comparison with other numerical results. By applying the quantitative analysis, similar shapes are intuitively distinguished. The developed numerical code underestimates the ice accretion area and the ice thickness of lower surface. In order to improve the accuracy, further accurate aerodynamic solver is required for the water droplet trajectories.

수위-유량자료는 수문모형의 적용 등과 같은 다양한 수자원분야에서 기초적인 관측자료로서 이용되고 있다. 하지만 겨울철 결빙에 따른 수위계의 오작동과 제한된 실측 수위자료에 따른 수위 자료의 보정과 획득에 어려움을 겪고 있다. 본 연구에서는 수자원 분야에서 다양하게 적용된 바 있는 인공신경망 기법과 누적결빙온도일 (AFDD; Accumulated Freezing Degree Days) 개념을 이용하여 오산천 유역의 탑동수위관측점의 결빙기 수위자료를 보정하였다. 연구결과 보정된 수위자료는 강우량과 방류량 등의 영향을 비교적 잘 반영하는 것으로 나타났으며 향후 지속적인 연구를 통해 인공신경망을 이용한 수위 보정 결과를 검정할 수 있어야 할 것이다.

In-flight icing remains as one of the most persistent hazards for aircraft operations. The effect of icing on aircraft performance and safety has to be evaluated during the development and airworthiness certification process. The scaling method is a procedure to determine the scaled test conditions in icing wind tunnels in order to produce the same result as when the reference model is exposed to the desired cloud conditions. In this study, a scaling program is developed to provide an easy-to-use tool to the aero-icing community. The Olsen and Ruff 4th methods are employed for this purpose and the velocity is calculated by matching the dimensionless Weber number. To validate the program, the results are compared with the NASA scaling results. The scaling examples based on FAR (Federal Aviation Regulation) Part 25 Appendix C are also presented. Finally, a validation study using a state-of-the-art icing simulation code FENSAP-ICE is presented.

Finite element analysis was undertaken to investigate the effect of freezing force of water unexpectedly penetrated into inserts used in railway sleeper on pullout capacity of anchor bolts for fixing base-plate onto concrete sleeper. Based on the in-situ investigation and measurement of geometry of railway sleeper and rail-fastener, the railway sleeper was modeled by 3D solid elements. Nonlinear and fracture properties for the finite element model were assumed according to CEB-FIP 1990 model code. And the pullout maximum load of anchor bolt obtained from the model developed was compared with experimental pullout maximum load presented by KRRI for verification of the model. Using this model, the effect of position of anchor bolt, amount of fastening force applied to the anchor bolt, and compressive strength of concrete on pull-out capacity of anchor bolts installed in railway sleeper was investigated. As a result, it is found that concrete railway sleepers could be damaged by the pressure due to freezing of water penetrated into inserts. And the pullout capacity of anchor bolt close to center of railway is slightly greater than that of the others.
