일반적으로 가뭄은 신뢰성 높고 활용이 쉬운 강수량 자료를 활용하여 판단되고 있으나, 복합적인 대응을 하기 위해서는 증발산량, 토양수분 등 다양한 변수를 고려해야 한다. 이러한 수문기상정보들은 관측자료의 자료 확보기간이 통계 분석을 하기에 짧거나, 시공간적 대표성 부족 등의 단점이 있다. 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위해 지면모델이 대안으로 널리 활용중이나, 이를 실제로 가뭄에 활용한 응용연구는 상대적으로 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 미국 NASA의 전지구지표자료동화체계 GLDAS (Global Land Data Assimilation System) 산출물을 활용하여 지면모델 기반의 수문기상정보를 국내 가뭄감시 연구에 적용하고자 하였다. 이를 위해, GLDAS 프로젝트를 통해 제공되는 다중모델 기반의 증발산량, 토양수분 결과를 비교 분석하고 이를 직접 활용할 수 있는 가뭄판단 지수에 적용하여 성능을 검토하였다. 이를 통해 GLDAS 산출 정보가 가뭄판단에 있어 발휘하는 성능을 평가함으로써, 향후 본원에서 구축할 지면 모델 앙상블 시스템의 가뭄감시정보 산출의 효과를 간접적으로 검토하고자 한다.

This study aims to experimentally investigate the heat transfer characteristics of a thermosyphon using nanofluids. A thermosyphon with three individual pipes, which share the internal volume of the evaporator section, was designed, and its performance was tested for various charge amounts, input powers of the evaporator section's heater, and concentrations of working fluids. The optimized charge amount of the thermosyphon using distilled water was 30%, and the thermal resistance of the thermosyphon with $TiO_2$ nanofluid was 18.1% lower than that with Ag nanofluid. In addition, the heat transfer performance of the thermosyphon with $TiO_2-1%$ was optimized at an input power of 300 W at the evaporator section's heater and a charge amount of 30%.

This study discusses the thermal insulation capacity of variant of NO96 LNG (liquefied natural gas) cargo containment insulation system. Changing the insulation materials and the insulation layers of conventional GTT NO96 containment system, The thermal resistance and BOR(boil off rate) caused by the heat transfer between cryogenic and environmental temperature is discussed. Therefore, thermal analysis of LNG CCS(cargo containment system) is carried out to determine the insulation capabilities. Also, BOR is evaluated in terms of the total amount of heat invaded into CCS(cargo containment system). Variant of NO96 CCS such as NO96, NO96GW and NO96L3 membrane type during laden voyage is selected for the comparative study. Finite element model for heat transfer analysis is conducted by employing the equivalent thermal resistance model to simplify the complex insulation layers. Finally the results for each variant model are relatively compared and discussed to minimize the BOR.

In this paper, alternative natural refrigerant R290(Propane), R600(Butane), R717(Ammonia), R1270(Propylene) for freon refrigerant R22 were used working fluids for 2-stage compression and 1-stage expansion refrigeration system. The operating parameters considered in this study included evaporation temperature, condensation temperature, subcooling degree, superheating degree, mass flow rate ratio of inter-cooler. The main results were summarized as follows : The COP of 2-stage compression and 1-stage expansion refrigeration system increases with the increasing subcooling degree and mass flow rate ration of inter-cooler, but decreases with the increasing evaporating temperature, condensing temperature and superheating degree. Therefore, subcooling degree, mass flow rate ratio of inter-cooler of 2-stage compression and 1-stage expansion refrigeration system using natural refrigerants have an effect on COP of this system. The COP of natural refrigerants was higher than the COP of freon R22 in this study, so points to be considered are the security, the attached facilities for natural refrigerants than COP.

Trifluoroethyl methacrylate (TFEMA) is used in the preparation of water-repellant paints and optical fiber clading materials, and is manufactured by esterification reaction of trifluoroethanol (TFEA) and methacrylic acid (MA). To estimate the applicability of a pervaporation membrane for the esterification TFEMA esterification, the basic pervaporation properties for TFEA/water mixture were determined using a commercial poly(vinyl alcohol) membrane (GFT Membrane $Pervap^{\circledR}1005$). The effect of TFEA concentration in feed solution and operating temperature on the pervaporation properties was determined. The total permeation flux decreased with increasing TFEA concentration from 90 to 99 wt%, but the separation factor of TFEA/water showed maximum values at 95 wt% TFEA concentration. With increasing feed temperatures from 50 to 8$0^{\circ}C$, the permeation flux and separation factor increased. Higher separation factors and permeation fluxes were observed at 8$0^{\circ}C$ of feed temperature. This pervaporation performance confirmed that the commercial pervaporation membrane could be successfully applied to esterification of TFEMA.

This study presents the experimental results of pervious blocks subjected to a series of unique inflow conditions in urban area. The measured properties include the strength, permeability, drainage capacity and runoff, and evaporation for blocks made of two different size of aggregates. Results revealed that the strength satisfies the Korean Standard regardless of aggregate size whereas the immediate runoff occurred for the block with small size aggregate. On the other hand, the block with large aggregates allowed the drainage upon the initial inflow condition, which became hampered to induce the runoff by subsequent inflow. It was attributed to the fact that the capillary water often served as the hydraulic barrier in partially saturated condition. The salient observation indicated that the runoff highly depended on the evaporation and pre-wetting condition as well as the porosity and pore connectivity. The bilinear evaporate rate that makes the degree of saturation vary also had great influence on deterining the time-dependent runoff.

A finned-tube-type evaporator module has been proposed for a 2 t/h-class water-tube-type industrial boiler with multiple burners. The geometry of the fins was changed at each module to equalize the evaporation. The modules were designed by considering the energy balance at each row rather than by following a conventional bulk design procedure. The designed module was built into a 2 t/h-class water-tube-type boiler, and its performance was tested. A numerical simulation was also conducted to evaluate the two- or three-dimensional effects of factors such as the inlet conditions. The numerical simulation also included the conjugate heat transfer problem to predict the fin tip temperature. The heat transfer coefficient with fins is lower than that obtained from the empirical correlation of a bare tube. The fin tip temperature from CFD is higher than that from the analytical solution.

A urea-SCR system suffers from some issues associated with the ammonia slip phenomenon, which mainly occurs because of the shortage of evaporation and thermolysis time, and this makes it difficult to achieve an uniform distribution of injected urea. A numerical study was therefore performed by changing such various parameters as installed injector angle and application and angle of mixer to enhance evaporation and the mixing of urea water solution with exhaust gases. As a result, various parameters were found to affect the evaporation and mixing characteristics between exhaust gas and urea water solution, and their optimization is required. Finally, useful guidelines were suggested to achieve the optimum design of a urea-SCR injection system for improving the DeNOx performance and reducing ammonia slip.

This study deals with the conventional consolidation methods like preloading and vertical drains. For it, Two different mechanism, i.e., increasing of permeability and evaporating of pore water were studied. The marine clays excavated in Incheon were heated at low temperature($90^{\circ}C$) to increase the permeability. Also, Microwave oven and high-temperature electric heater were used for pore water evaporation. Several points raised from the experiments. To fix them, the electric heating system was revised to upgrade the field application and drain efficiency of pore water, and the marine clays were heated by revised electric heater at high temperature($250^{\circ}C$). From Experimental result showed that results, high-temperature heater induced the pore water evaporation and displayed the excellent consolidation behavior. In addition, the cone index of heated clays were increased about 19 times, which suggested that electric heating system could be applied for ensuring the trafficability of heavy equipments.

Chiller systems which have better temperature stability than Direction expansion coils are often used as condensing units in HVAC systems for offshore plants. Large capacity compressors and electronic expansion valves in chiller systems are mostly imported, and the size of a chiller system depends on heat exchangers such as evaporators and condensers which are locally produced. Due to limited space in the offshore plants, shipyards are demanding manufacturers to make equipment compact. In this paper, a shell & tube heat exchanger, which is used as an evaporator in the conventional flooded chiller system, is replaced by a newly developed compact plate & shell heat exchanger. The main development process of the plate & shell heat exchanger is introduced, and its performances were experimentally evaluated with a real flooded chiller system, and the results are presented.
