We investigated the combustion rate and kinetic rate of char when burning in oxygen-enriched atmospheres with either an $N_2$ or $CO_2$ bath gas in a drop tube furnace. The experiments were performed with sub-bituminous coal (Adaro) and bituminous coal (Coal valley) under atmospheric pressure conditions. Two different coals were investigated over 12 to 30 vol% oxygen and furnace temperatures of 900, 1100, and $1300^{\circ}C$. For both coals, the particle temperature and overall reaction rate are lower in the $CO_2$ bath gas. However, analysis of single-particle data shows that the surface-specific burning rate of char oxidation is similar in both gases. In addition, the kinetic rate and activation energy for each coal were similar for both gases. Generally, the particle temperature and overall reaction rate of sub-bituminous coal are higher than those of bituminous coal.

A heat insulating material used in the industrial site normally derives its heat insulating performance by using a low thermal conductivity material such as glass fiber. In case of the metal insulation for nuclear power plant, in contrast, only TP 304 stainless steel foil having high thermal conductivity is the only acceptable material. So, it is required to approach in structural aspect to ensure the insulation performance. In this study, the design factors related to the metal insulation internal structure were determined considering the three modes of heat transfer, i.e., conduction, convection, and radiation. The analysis of heat flow was used to understand the ratio of the heat transfer from each factor to the overall heat transfer from all the factors. Based on this study, in order to minimize the convection phenomenon caused by the internal insulation, a multiple foil was inserted in the insulation. The increase in the conduction heat transfer rate was compared, and the insulation performance under the three modes of heat transfer was analyzed in order to determine the internal geometry.

In this study, elevated temperature design and integrity evaluation have been conducted using two different piping design codes for the high-temperature piping systems of sodium integral effect test loop for safety simulation and assessment(STELLA-2) being developed by KAERI(Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute). The design code of ASME B31.1 for power piping and French nuclear grade piping design guideline, RCC-MRx RD-3600 were applied, and conservatism of those codes was quantified based on the piping integrity evaluation results. The piping system of Model DHRS, Model IHTS and PSLS are to be installed in STELLA-2. The integrity evaluation results for the three piping systems according to the two design codes showed that integrity of the piping system was confirmed. As a code comparison result, ASME B31.1 was shown to be more conservative for sustained loads while RD-3600 was more conservative for thermal loads compared to B31.1.

Since conventional optimization that is classified as a deterministic method does not consider the uncertainty involved in a modeling or manufacturing process, an optimum design is often determined to be on the boundaries of the feasible region of constraints. Reliability-based design optimization is a method for obtaining a solution by minimizing the objective function while satisfying the reliability constraints. This method includes an optimization process and a reliability analysis that facilitates the quantization of the uncertainties related to design variables. Moment-based reliability analysis is a method for calculating the reliability of a system on the basis of statistical moments. In general, on the basis of these statistical moments, the Pearson system estimates seven types of distributions and determines the reliability of the system. However, it is technically difficult to practically consider the Pearson Type IV distribution. In this study, we propose an enhanced Pearson Type IV distribution based on a kriging model and validate the accuracy of the enhanced Pearson Type IV distribution by comparing it with a Monte Carlo simulation. Finally, reliability-based design optimization is performed for a system with type IV distribution by using the proposed method.

최근 정보·전자산업의 발전으로 고 신뢰성 전자재료에 대한 수요가 증대되고 있으며 이러한 첨단산업의 기반의 될 신소재 중 전자세라믹스가 차지하는 비중이 그 대부분을 차지하고 있으며 이에 대한 수요와 기대가 점점 커지고 있다. 이러한 전자세라믹스는 유전재료, 자성재료, 압전재료, 도전성 재료 등으로 나뉘게 된다. 어떠한 분류에 들어가든 그 조성은 금속의 산화물 형태가 일반적이며 미세한 분말의 성형체를 소결(sintering) 함으로써 최종제품으로 완성된다. 이러한 전잣라믹스가 최근 요구되는 고 신뢰성, 고 밀도화를 달성하기 위해선 원료 분말 제조단계부터 제어가 필요하다. 원료분말의 균일·균질성과 그 입도는 소결특성 뿐만아니라 전기적 특성에도 큰 영향을 미치기 때문이다. 세라믹스의 분말제조 방법 중 일반적으로 사용되는 방법으로는 고상 산화물을 혼합하여 하소(calcination)한 후 분쇄하는 '고상합성법'과 금속의 염 또는 alkoxide 용액을 이용하여 화학적으로 제조하는 '습식 화학적 합성법'이 있다. 고상합성법은 합성온도가 높고 기계적 분쇄와 혼합에 의존하므로 균일·균질성이 떨어지고 분말크기를 1㎛ 이하로 만들기 힘들다. 반면에 습식화학적 합성법은 기계적인 분쇄와 혼합에선 얻을 수 없는 원자 혹은 분자단위의 균일한 혼합과 submicron 이하의 미세한 분말을 얻을 수 있다. 따라서 이러한 습식 화학적 합성으로 얻은 분말을 사용하면 미세한 입자의 특성으로 인해 소결온도를 낮출 수 있으며 균일한 미세구조와 균질한 조성을 갖게되어 기계적·전기적 물성증진도 가져올 수 있게 된다. 습식 화학적 분말합성법은 전술하였듯이 alkoxide의 가수분해를 이용하는 sol-gel 법과 금속의 염(salt) 용액을 이용하여, 화학적으로 화합물 침전을 얻거나 또는 공침전물(coprecipitate) 형태의 분말을 얻는, 침전법으로 나뉠 수 있다. 침전법의 근본원리는 pH 및 pCO3 등에 따른 이온종의 용해도 차이를 이용하는 것으로써 각 이온종에 따른 solubility product(ksp)를 이용하여 설명된다. 본 연구에서는 침전법을 사용한 Ba-, Pb-계 전자세라믹스의 분말합성에 대한 이론적 고찰과 공정개발 및 실험을 통한 물성증진 효과에 대해 알아보았다. 본 실험상의 전자세라믹스 조성은 강유전체, 세라믹반도체, 압효과에 대해 알아보았다. 본 실험상의 전자세라믹스 조성은 강유전체, 세라믹 반도체, 압전재료로 널리 사용되는 BaTiO3, PZT(PbZrO3-PbTiO3)와 수직 자기기록매체로 큰 가능성이 있으며 hard ferrite로 널리쓰이는 Ba-feerite(BaFe12O19)로써 수산화물 형태의 침전에 대한 기구(mechanism)와 물성에 대해 살펴보았다. 이러한 침전법에 의한 분말합성 과정에는 소결체의 물성에 영향을 미치는 pH 조절제나 원료에서 혼입될 수 있는 Na+, K+, Cl-, SO4- 등의 제거(washing 혹은 filtering)가 필수적이다. 그러나 침전법에서 얻게 되는 분말은 매우 미세하여 colloid를 형성하게 되며, 이러한 colloid 상태의 미세한 침전입자가 filtering media에 끼이게 되어 견고하면서도 상당한 부피를 가지는 filter cake을 형성하기 때문에 filtering에 많은 시간과 다량의 filtering agent (본 실험의 경우엔 증류수)가 필요하게 된다. 따라서 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 colloid 상태의 침전물을 얼렸다 녹이는 freezing process를 개발, 적용하여 그 원리 및 효과, 그로인한 분말형태를 관찰하여 보았다.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of the addition of red wine on the quality characteristics and free amino acid content of seasoned pork meat. Seasoned pork meat was prepared using three variation: pork meat containing 25% water (T0), pork meat containing a combination of 20% water and 5% red wine (T1), pork meat containing a combination of 15% water and 10% red wine (T2), and pork meat containing a combination of 10% water and 15% red wine (T3). There were no significant differences in moisture, crude protein, crude fat, crude ash, a* value, rheological properties, pH, VBN content, saturated fatty acid or unsaturated fatty acid among T0, T1, T2 and T3. The L* and b* value of seasoned pork meat was higher in T2 and T3 than in T0 and T1 (p<0.05). The TBARS value was highest in T0 (p<0.05). The free amino acid content was higher in T2 and T3 than in T0 (p<0.05).

Unlike common device, MEMS(micro-electro-mechanical system) device consists of very small mechanical structures which determine the performance of the device. Because of its small mechanical structure inside. MEMS device is very sensitive to thermal stress caused by CTE(coefficient of thermal expansion) mismatch between its components. Therefore, its characteristics are affected by material properties. process temperature. and dimensions of each layer such as chip, adhesive and substrate. In this study. we investigated the change of the thermal stress in the chip attached to a substrate. With computer-aided finite element method (FEM), the computer simulation of the thermal stress was conducted on variables such as bonding material, process temperature, bonding layer thickness and die size. The commercial simulation program, ABAQUS ver5.6, was used. Subsequently 3-layer test samples were fabricated, and their degree of bending were measured by 3-D coordinate measuring machine. The experimental results were in good agreement with the simulation results. This study shows that the bonding layer could be the source of stress or act as the buffer layer for stress according to its elastic modulus and CTE. Solder adhesive layer was the source of stress due to its high elastic modulus, therefore high compressive stress was developed in the chip. And the maximum tensile stress was developed in the adhesive layer. On the other hand, polymer adhesive layer with low elastic modulus acted as buffer layer, and resulted in lower compressive stress. The maximum tensile stress was developed in the substrate.

With rapidly developing Internet applications, an e-mail has been considered as one of the most popular methods for exchanging information. The e-mail, however, has a serious problem that users ran receive a lot of unwanted e-mails, what we called, spam mails, which cause big problems economically as well as socially. In order to block and filter out the spam mails, many researchers and companies have performed many sorts of research on spam filtering. In general, users of e-mail have different criteria on deciding if an e-mail is spam or not. Furthermore, in e-mail client systems, users do different actions according to a spam mail or not. In this paper, we propose a mail filtering system using such user actions. The proposed system consists of two steps: One is an action inference step to draw user actions from an e-mail and the other is a mail classification step to decide if the e-mail is spam or not. All the two steps use incremental learning, of which an algorithm is IB2 of TiMBL. To evaluate the proposed system, we collect 12,000 mails of 12 persons. The accuracy is $81{\sim}93%$ according to each person. The proposed system outperforms, at about 14% on the average, a system that does not use any information about user actions.

To test the performance of nuclear fuels, coolant needs to be circulated through the test rig installed in the test loop. Because the pressure and temperature of the coolant is 15.5 MPa and $300^{\circ}C$ respectively, coolant sealing is one of the most important processes in fabricating a nuclear fuel test rig. In particular, 15 instrumentation cables installed in a test rig pass through the pressure boundary, and brazing is generally applied as a sealing method. In this study, an induction brazing system has been developed using a high frequency induction heater including a vacuum chamber. For application in the nuclear field, BNi2 should be used as a paste, and optimal process variables for Ni brazing have been found by several case studies. The performance and soundness of the brazed components has been verified by a tensile test, cross section test, and sealing performance test.
