Nitrous oxide is a global warming substance and is known as the main cause of the destruction of the ozone layer because its global warming effect is 310 times stronger than carbon dioxide, and it takes 120 years to decompose. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the characteristics of NOx emission from N2O reduction by thermal decomposition of N2O. Bunsen premixed flames were adopted as a heat source to form a high-temperature flow field, and the experimental variables were nozzle exit velocity, co-axial velocity, and N2O dilution rate. NO production rates increased with increasing N2O dilution rates, regardless of nozzle exit velocities and co-axial flow rates. For N2O, large quantities were emitted from a stable premixed flame with suppressed combustion instability (Kelvin Helmholtz instability) because the thermal decomposition time is not sufficient with the relatively short residence time of N2O near the flame surface. Thus, to improve the reduction efficiency of N2O, it is considered effective to increase the residence time of N2O by selecting the nozzle exit velocities, where K-H instability is generated and formed a flow structure of toroidal vortex near the flame surface.

For predicting eigenfrequency and initial growth rate of combustion instabilities in lean premixed gas turbine combustor, linear thermoacoustic analysis model was developed in the current paper. A model combustor was selected for the model validation, which has well-defined inlet and outlet conditions and a relatively simple geometry, compared to the combustor in the previous works. Analytical linear equations for thermoacoustic waves were derived for a given combustion system. It was found that the prediction results showed a good agreement with the measurements, even though there was underestimation for instability frequencies. This underestimation was more obvious for a longer flame (i.e. wider temperature distribution) than for a shorter flame.

It is difficult to design because of the plug-holing phenomenon in which the amount of smoke discharged from the vertical vent is smaller than the designed amount of smoke. In this study, the effect of cross-sectional area ratio of tunnel and natural ventilation and heat release rate of fire source on plug-holing phenomenon occurring in natural ventilation system was experimentally analyzed. In the experiment model reduced to 1/20 size, the aspect ratio of the tunnel and the vertical vent was fixed, and the influence on the plug-holing phenomenon was confirmed by varying the sectional area ratio of the tunnel and the vertical vent. Experimental results show that the plug-holing phenomenon is caused by the comparison of the smoke boundary layer temperature with the temperature in the vertical vents, and the flow and temperature distribution characteristics under the vertical vents are changed as the cross-sectional area ratio of the tunnel and vertical vents increases. The plug-holing phenomenon is affected by the cross-sectional area ratio between the tunnel and the vertical ventilation. The greater the cross-sectional area ratio, the greater the probability of plug-holing.

About 21% of domestic chemical accidents are caused by transport vehicles for the past 10 years in Korea. Also, ammonia is a chemical substance with the largest number of accidents, 82 out of 672. In this study, supposed seasonal alternative scenario and worst scenario in case of releasing ammonia during bunkering it from tank lorry to fishing vessel and interpreted seasonal impact and range through Python, ALOHA, Probit analysis. Radiation impact range of possibility for 2nd burn and for maximum radiation in winter scenario, which is one of the alternative scenarios, was the highest(range: 41m, radiation: 5.01kW/m²) while overpressure impact was less than minimum standard of impact. And toxicity impact range(EPRG-2) of the summer scenario was the widest(5.0km) and took a very high death rate near accident area(port area, tourist area) according to Probit analysis. the wort scenario had a similar impact and range of summer scenario.

The aim of this study is to analyze the combustion and thermal properties in order to establish baseline data for the fire safety evaluation of domestic timbers. The combustion properties such as heat release rate, total heat release, gas yield, and mass loss were analyzed by the method of cone calorimeter test and thermogravimetry (TGA). Thermal decomposition temperatures of the specimens by TGA were recorded as $359.83^{\circ}C$ for White pine, $359.80^{\circ}C$ for Red-Leaved Hornbeam, $363.14^{\circ}C$ for Carolina poplar, $358.59^{\circ}C$ for Konara oak, and $362.11^{\circ}C$ Sargent cherry. Red-Leaved Hornbeam showed the highest value of heat release rate, but, Carolina poplar wood showed the lowest value. In case of the total heat release, Red-Leaved Hornbeam wood showed the highest value and Carolina poplar wood showed the lowest one. The gas analysis results showed that Sargent cherry wood had the lowest value of 0.021, and Konara oak had the highest at 0.031 in the $CO/CO_2$. The minimum value of mass reduction was recorded as 87.57% for Sargent cherry, but, on the other hand, it was 95.03% for Konara oak. There was a correlation between the gas generation of CO and $CO_2$, and combustion behavior of woods. These results are expected to be usful for providing a fundamental guideline with the fire safety of wood use in interior applications.

This study suggests the estimation of the demand for the exhibition center in Busan and to valid reasons for the establishment of the 2nd Convention Center in Busan. The validity for the estimated demand is acquired by examining the studies conducted by the Ministry of Commerce Industry and Energy. The qualitative data for the phased establishment of the area is suggested in accordance to the results of the demand estimation. From previous study(Oh, 2017), Kangseo-gu, Busan has been evaluated to be the final candidate for building a new convention center in the city of Busan. The potential synergy effects of on-going developmental projects in Kangseo region is one of the influential factors for the MICE professionals' opinion in the qualitative analysis. Moreover, the region has available land to hold the facility of more than 100,000 square meter to overcome the current drawback of BEXCO, insufficient space to hold large events. Lastly, the expansion of Gimhae International Airport would bring an increased international flights that would also lead to an increase in MICE industry for the region. The virtual effect of the more than one million $m^2$-sized oconvention center is examined via Huff Model and the results suggests a logical estimated data for further demand needed for the south east regions, not just within the city of Busan.

A new edge detection operator superimposing two displaced Gaussian smoothing filters Is proposed as an approximate operator for the DroG(flrst derivative of Gaussian) known as a sub-op-timal step edge detector. The performance of the proposed edge detector Is very close to that of the DroG with the performance criteria . signal to noise ratio, locality, and multiple response. And the computational complexity can be reduced almost by a half of that of DroG, because of the use of common 2-D smoothing filter for DroG and LoG ( Laplacian of Gausslan) systems.

최근 우리나라는 선박 종류별 해양사고 발생률 중 100톤 미만의 어선 및 소형선박이 차지하는 비중이 72%에 달하고 있다. 그 원인을 살펴보면, 경계, 침로선정, 선위확인등 항해일반원칙의 미준수가 상당부분 차지하고 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 비교적 고령화되고 운항지식이 충분하지 못한 소형선박의 항해사에게 안전한 최적항로를 안내해주는 지능형 항해지원시스템을 개발하였다. 본 시스템은 항로계획 프로그램과 항로전송부, GPS Plotter로 구성되어있다. 지능형 항해지원시간템을 통해 임의의 위치에서 목표지점까지 최적항로를 퍼지 언어표현으로 안내해주는 시스템을 개발하여 그 유효성을 확인하였다.

고리 원자력 1호기 14주기(‘95년도) 운전기간 중 증기발생기 세관 열전달 용량 저하로 전출력 운전 기간동안 정격출력보다 15% 감발 운전한 경험이 있었는데, 이 기간중 냉각재내 방사성 부식생성물(CRUD) 농도가 약 80% 감소됨을 발견하였다. 이때 출력감소 비율보다 많은 CRUD 감소현상 규명을 위해 냉각재 수질관리인자와 EPRI 피복재 부식모델인 PFCC코드를 사용한 피 복재 산화물 두께변화 등을 비교한 결과, 운전중 용출되는 방사성 부식생성물은 핵연료 표면의 피복재 산화물에 흡착된 Co핵종이 피복재 산화물 이탈시 함께 거동하는 것으로 확인되었으며, 피복재 산화물 이탈은 산화막 두께 및 열유속에 주로 의존함이 밝혀졌다. 따라서 냉각재내에서 방사성 부식 생성물의 생성률 저감을 위해서는 정상운전시 핵연료 표면의 산화막 증가를 억제할 수 있는 수질 조건을 도출하고 그에따른 운전을 통해 원전 작업자의 방사선 피폭량 저감 및 방사성폐기물의 발생을 줄일 수 있을 것으로 여겨진다.

원자력발전소에서 발생하는 사용후연료 집합체를 운반하기 위한 수송용기는 고준위 방사성물질의 위험으로부터 인간과 환경을 보호하기 위하여 안전성이 철저하게 보장되어야만 한다. 원자력법과 IAEA 안전수송규정 등 국내외의 관련규정에 의하면 사용후연료 수송용기는 정상운반조건은 물론 수송 도중 발생할 수 있는 운반사고조건에서 B(U)F형 운반용기에 대한 기술기준을 만족시키어 어떠한 경우에도 방사선차폐, 임계, 격납, 열 및 구조적 건전성을 유지하여 방사성물질을 누출시키지 않아야 한다고 규정하고 있다. 본 논문은 한수원(주)에서 개발하여 현재 사용하고 있는 경수로형 사용후연료 수송용기(KN-12 수송용기)의 격납계통에 대한 건전성을 확인하기 위하여 해석에 의한 격납평가 및 수송용기의 운영 중 수행하는 누설시험 등의 누설평가방법에 대하여 기술하였으며, 또한, 매 운반 시 측정한 실제 누설률을 제시하고 분석하였다.
