Daegu Solar Power Tower Plant of a 200 kW thermal capacity uses an open air receiver. An air receiver is generally based on the volumetric receiver concept with porous ceramic absorbers. Because absorber material is important in the volumetric receiver, ceramic materials with excellent thermal conductivity, high solar absorptivity and good thermal stability have been researched. KIER also developed SiC honeycomb absorber modules and evaluated performance of the modules at the KIER solar furnace. For performance evaluation, we made an open volumetric receiver containing the modules and measured the outlet temperature and the efficiency. It is demonstrated that performance of the KIER absorber is comparable to that of a reference absorber developed by DLR.

본 연구는 원자력발전소용 시뮬레이션 언어인 DSNP 언어를 이용하여 CANDU-6 발전소 운전 모사 프로그램을 구성함으로써 핵심계통인 1차냉각재 계통(PHTS)과 2차 계통 일부가 정상 및 과도조건에서 보일 수 있는 운전 상태를 연구하였다. DSNP 프로그램은 원자로심과 증기발생기에서의 열전달 모델, 열수송계통 펌프 모델 및 가압기 열수력 모델을 포함하고 있으며, 파이프(pipe)라는 단위 구성체를 이용하여 1차 냉각재계통을 노드화하여 계통 모사가 실현된다. 정상상태 100% 전출력 운전시 대표적인 운전변수를 기준으로 DSNP 결과와 CANDU-6 발전소 설계치를 비교해본 결과 서로 매우 근사한 값을 나타내었으며, 이는 과도상태 모사의 초기조건으로 합당한 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구에서 선택된 과도상태 모사시 DSNP 프로그램은 매우 안정된 '최종정상상태'를 얻음에 따라 원자로의 기계 물리학적 변화를 합리적으로 모사하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. CANDU-6 단계감발 운전시 동적 거동을 원자로 설계자료인 '예비 안전성 평가 보고서(PSAR)'와 비교한 결과 단기적 거동은 PSAR 결과와 다소 다른 점이 있었으나 전체적으로 합리적인 운전변수 값을 얻을 수 있었다. 단기적 거동에 대한 입증은 원자로 운전자료를 통하여 가능할 것으로 사료된다. 이상과 같이 본 연구를 통해 구성한 DSNP 프로그램은 보완 및 개선의 여지가 있으나 현재의 수준으로도 CANDU-6 발전소의 일부 과도상태 모사가 가능한 것으로 판단된다

For Cu-Cr alloy developed for rocket engines, estimated fatigue lives were calculated using various fatigue life prediction methods and compared with fatigue life acquired from low-cycle fatigue tests. The utilized methods for fatigue life prediction are as follows: Coffin-Manson relation, plastic/total strain energy density relations, Smith-Watson-Topper relation, Tomkins relation, and Jahed-Varvani relation. As results of estimation of fatigue lives, it satisfied within scatter band two compared to the test fatigue lives in all methods. The quantitative calculation of the deviation of predicted fatigue lives gives that the total strain energy density relation presents the best result.

This is the second of two companion papers that describe the performance assessment for flexible rockfall protection systems. Described in a companion paper is the criteria to assess the performance of flexible rockfall protection systems. In this study the performance assessment of domestic rockfall protection fences was implemented using the criteria suggested in the companion paper. It was investigated that the rockfall protection fences for express highways performed well to resist the rockfall energy of 50kJ and the deformed rockfall protection fences right after impacting would not obstruct the vehicle traffic. However, to dissipate the rockfall energy of 50kJ with the level of European standards constantly, the spacing of wireropes was adjusted to be 200mm up to the 8th wirerope from the bottom and spacing-maintainers should be extended to the 8th wirerope. It was figured out that the rockfall protection fences for general highways were required to install spacing-maintainers as those for express highways because they, which did not have spacing-maintenance members, were very prone to the penetration of rockfall even for the very small rockfall impact energies.

The energy consumption of residential sectors is given a sizable portion in total energy consumption. So, improvement of building performance can be as a part of principal energy strategy. For this reason, an evaluation tool for estimation of energy consumption was developed and supportive policies were considered in this study. In particular, energy saving technology were examined to practice the green home project, among them 7 items were selected as a factor for estimating energy consumption. In addition, to the simulation study on energy consumption, heating load, hot water demand and electric consumption was also studied with actual measured value. Further more, several supportive policies were discussed to encourage green home project in Korea.

The evaluation of aluminum flat tube and louver fin heat exchangers for a condenser in residential air-conditioning applications has been conducted. A series of tests for two-different brazed aluminum heat exchangers was performed and the results were compared with conventional fin and tube heat exchangers for residential air-conditioning system. Refrigerant charge amount for a window-system air-conditioner with the brazed aluminum condenser is decreased by 35% and the volume and material of heat exchanger can be reduced by 50% compared to the conventional fin and tube heat exchangers.

The purpose of this work was a simulation study to evaluate the virtual monochromatic (VM) image quality of blood vessels compared to the monochromatic image. Dual-energy images were obtained based on the linear attenuation coefficients of five materials at 50 keV and 80 keV at low- and high-energies, respectively. A weighting factor is required to synthesize the VM image, and the liver and bone were used as basis materials to obtain the weighting factor. VM images were synthesized at energies ranging from 30 keV to 100 keV. Image quality was evaluated by Contrast to noise ratio (CNR) and noise by setting calcium and contrast medium as signals and blood as background. According to the results, the energies with the maximum CNR were 50 keV and 60 keV for calcium and contrast medium, respectively. The energies showing the minimum noise were 70 keV, 70 keV, and 60 keV in calcium, iodine contrast medium, and blood, respectively. The VM image can contribute to the improvement of diagnostic performance in CT examination because it can implement an image at the optimal energy that minimize noise and maximize CNR.

In this study, the clean air delivery rate (CADR) of ceiling air circulator (CAA) was determined under indoor environmental simulation conditions. An air filter was used to provide air cleaning ability to the CAA. The CADR of filter adapted CAA was evaluated and compared with the value of commercial air purifier. The installation of mesh-shaped filter on the CAA showed particle reduction effect on the particles over 0.4 ㎛ in diameter, but the CADR was up to 0.25 m³/min. When the filter having 99.9% in collection efficiency was installed on the CAA, its CADR was 1.52 m³/min, while the CADR of commercial air purifier was 3.19 m³/min.

The thermal performance for test system with evacuated tubular solar collector is experimentally investigated to obtain the basis data for developing new type solar collector. For this purpose, the test system was designed using CATIA and then after being manufactured, the system was tested using evacuated tubular solar collector. Numerical analysis, furthermore, was performed using ANSYS Fluent V.13 for glass evacuated tubular solar collector. The results showed that as setting temperature difference(${\Delta}T$) of system was increased, total operating(working) time was almost same in all cases, even though operating count was decreased. The results of numerical analysis showed that as temperature of solar absorber in glass evacuated tubular solar collector was high, the drop-rate of temperature of center part was increased.
