The compressing-cutting device is used for manufacturing nano tube. the purpose of this study is to design and manufacture the compressing-cutting device witch has safety and stable performance. The most important core technology, in nano tube manufacturing, is to seam the each end of tube with appropriate pressure and to cut it off into the two part safely not to leak injected medium. Since the compressing pressure and the cutoff speed make the quality of nano tube, they are very important. This study will show the processes of design and manufacturing of compressing-cutting device.

In this study, we have developed a composite pressure vessel that is compact and can store refrigerant at high pressure to increase the refrigerant volume. The composite pressure vessel is made of aluminum-based duralumin, which has high rigidity and excellent elongation in the inner liner, considering the characteristics of products in the aerospace and defense industry, where the safety of the applied product is considered as a priority. High strength carbon fiber was applied to the outside. In order to evaluate the performance of the developed product, burst test and cycling test were carried out. In burst test, an excellent safety margin equivalent to 2.7 times the operating pressure was obtained. In cycling test, a stable failure mode in which 'pre-burst leak' occurs is proved and the soundness of the product is proved.

In the periodic surveillance material test for the spacer component of fuel channel assembly in CANDU, a microstructural characterization analysis is required in addition to the mechanical property evaluation test. In this study, detailed microstructure analysis and simple mechanical property evaluation of archive spacer parts were conducted to indirectly support the surveillance test and assist in the study of spacer material degradation. We investigated the microstructural characteristics of the spacer garter spring coil through comparative analysis with the plate material. The main microstructure characteristics of the garter spring coil X-750 are represented by the fine grain size distribution, the ordering phase distribution developed inside the matrix, the high dislocation density inside the grains, and the arrangement of coarse carbides. In addition, the yield strength of the garter spring coil X-750 was indirectly evaluated to be approximately 1 GPa. We also established an analytical method to elucidate the microstructural evolution of the radioactive spacer garter spring coil X-750 based on Canadian research experiences. Finally, we confirmed the measurement technique for helium bubble formation through TEM examination on the helium implanted X-750 material.

The plant is an important facility as a infrastructure, and ensuring safety against possible accidents such as gas leaks and explosions must be considered in the design. However, there is little study on explosion pressure in plants for reasons such as economic feasibility, and overpressure data on this field is insufficient. In this study, an experimental design plan considering the explosion scenario that may occur in the plant was presented, and the explosion pressure was confirmed through an explosion experiment. Hydrogen-methane mixed gas was used as a combustible material, and the effect of confinement and congestion on overpressure was studied. The effect of overlapping pressure waves during deflagration and the turbulence effect by congested pipes are discussed. The results of this study can be used as input data in various safety designs.

This paper presents the strength safety of a hydrogen gas composite fuel tank, which is analyzed using a FEM based on the criterion of US DOT-CFFC and Korean Standard. A hydrogen gas composite tank in which is fabricated by an aluminum liner of 6061-T6 material and carbon fiber wound composite layers of T800-24K is charged with a filling pressure of 70MPa and a gas storage capacity of 130 liter. The FEM results indicated that von Mises stress, 255.2MPa of an aluminum liner inner tank is low compared with that of 95% yield strength, 272MPa. And a carbon fiber stress ratio of a composite fuel tank is 3.11 in hoop direction and 3.04 in helical direction. These data indicate that a carbon fiber gas tank is safe in comparison to that of a recommended criterion of 2.4 stress ratio. Thus, the proposed composite tank with 130 liter capacity and 70MPa filling pressure is usable in strength safety.

In this study, the strength safety for 110 liter hydrogen fuel storage tank with 70MPa filling pressure has been analyzed using a FEM technique. The strength safety of a composite fuel tank in which is fabricated by an aluminum liner of 6061-T6 and carbon fiber wound composite layers of T800-24K and T700-12K of Toray, and MR60H-24P of Mitsubishi Ray has been investigated based on the criterion of a strength safety of US DOT-CFFC and Korean Standard. The FEM computed results on the strength safety of 70MPa hydrogen gas tank showed that the hydrogen fuel storage tank in which is fabricated by T800-24K and T700-12K of Toray, and MR60H-24P of Mitsubishi Ray is safe because those two carbon fibers have very similar material properties. But, the composite storage tank with a filling pressure of 70MPa in which is fabricated by T700-12K of Toray may not guaranty the strength safety, and thus this study recommends a composite hydrogen fuel tank under 60MPa.

Leisure and business facilities have been steadily developing in Korea. Among waterborne leisure vessels and equipment, the distribution and sale of kayaks and canoes have significantly increased. Previously, (FRP) materials were primarily employed for constructing kayaks. However, owing to global warming and depletion of natural resources, the demand for non-polluting renewable energy is rapidly increasing, which has increased the demand for carbon fibers. To meet the requirements of changing social consciousness, a carbon fiber-based commercial kayak was designed in this study. Resistance analysis and structural safety were conducted by employing software tool for verifying the reliability of the proposed kayak. The pressure resistance and frictional resistance were examined in a wide range of speed. Obtained results indicate that at speeds greater than 2.6 m/s, the pressure resistance significantly increases and the total resistance also increases. Furthermore, the results corroborate that the proposed kayak structure has a adequate safety with respect to the design loads that are considered during operating conditions.

현재 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 스프링식 안전밸브는 스프링과 설정치 드리프트, 누설 취약성, 채터링에 의한 시트 파손등의 문제점을 지니고 있다. 안전밸브 디스크에서 발생하는 유체 누설은 안전밸브 설정압력 개방에 영향을 주며, 시트(Seat)면의 이물질 삽입, 균열 및 유체에 의한 침식(Erosion) 등에 의해 밸브 핵심 부품이 쉽게 손상되어 기기 성능 저하를 초래하게 된다. 따라서 유체 누설을 조기에 탐지하고 정량화하여 해당 기기의 상태정보 제공을 통한 누설 감지 기법 연구가 요구된다. 원자력 발전소의 경우 밸브에서 유체가 누설되면 밸브의 오작동 및 운전 안정성 저해 요인이 된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 음향방출법을 이용하여 안전밸브의 유체 누설을 평가하고, 안전밸브의 음향신호 측정 위치 선정 및 누설량에 따른 음향신호를 분석하고자 한다.

현재 국내외 대부분 원자력발전소(이하 원전)의 안전주입방식은 저온관 주입방식을 채택하고 있으며, 안전주입시 노심의 온도와 압력분포가 주요 관심 대상이었다. 하지만 향후 개발될 원전의 안전주입방식은 저온관주입이 아닌 안전주입의 신뢰성을 한단계 높인 원자로용기 직접주입방식인 DVI(Direct Vessel Injection)방식을 채택하고 있는 추세인데, 이 경우 관심분야는 원자로용기 dowmcomer지역까지 확대된다. 즉 저온의 안전주입수가 고온 고압의 원자로용기 downcomer지역으로 직접 주입됨으로 인해 이 지역의 유체유동과 혼합상태 및 온도분포가 주요관심 대상이 되며 이는 원자로용기의 PTS(Pressurized Thermal Shock)해석에 연결된다. 본 연구에서는 LOCA 사고시 DVI방식을 적응한 안전주입수 유입에 의한 원자로용기 downcomer지역의 유제유동과 유체혼합상태 및 온도분포를 열유체 해석 code인 FLUENT를 이용하여 해석하였다. 해석결과에 의하면 사고시 DVI에 의해 유입되는 약55℉인 저온 안전주입수는 유입과 동시에 넓은 지역으로 퍼지면서 dowmcomer지역의 고온 원자로냉각재와 적절히 혼합되어 하향유로를 따라 흐르며 PTS의 발생 원인인 국부적 유체비혼합 현상이나 온도 급하강현상은 발생하지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

Anti-Roll Tanks, also called Sloshing Tanks, is a rather common and sometimes an efficient method of limiting the roll angles. The important parameters, when considering using anti-roll tanks, are positioning, size, duct area, flow control device etc. Measurement by the PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry) was conducted to investigate the flow characteristics around control damper and inlet area of duct for three kind of inclined angle $(\alpha=0^*,\;10^*\;and\;20^*)$. Flow behaviors such as instantaneous and time-mean velocity vectors are investigated. Furthermore, to reveal boundaries between flowing and stagnant zones and to extract velocity profiles at any selected sections of the lower duct for passive anti-rolling tanks system.
