The autoignition temperature (AIT) is important index for the safe handling of flammable liquids which constitute the solvent mixtures. This study measured the AITs and ignition delay time for n-Butanol+sec-Butanol system by using ASTM E659 apparatus. The AITs of n-Butanol and sec-Butanol which constituted binary system were $340^{\circ}C$ and $447^{\circ}C$, respectively. The experimental AITs of n-Butanol+sec-Butanol system were a good agreement with the calculated AITs by the proposed equations with a few A.A.D. (average absolute deviation).

본 연구에서는 정유공정의 한 부부인 demethanizer의 core exchanger 주위 열교환기들에 대해 핀치설계법(pinch desgin method)을 이용하여 새로운 열교환망 합성을 수행하였다. 이로부터 초기에 설정했던 최소접근온도차가 총비용, 즉, 장치비와 에너지 비용에 결정적인 역할을 하는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 이 총비용의 목표값이 최소가 되는 최적 최소접근온도차가 존재하고, 이로부터 열교환망 합성이 수행되어져야 최적의 열교환망 합성이 이루어져야 한다는 결론을 얻었다.

The lowest values of the AITs(Autoignition temperatures) in the literature were normally used fire and explosion protection. In this study, the AITs of n-Propanol+n-Octane system were measured from ignition delay time(time lag) by using ASTM E659 apparatus. The AITs of n-Propanol and n-Octane which constituted binary systems were $435^{\circ}C$ and $218^{\circ}C$, respectively. The experimental ignition delay time of n-Propanol+n-Octane system were a good agreement with the calculated ignition delay time by the proposed equations with a few A.A.D.(average absolute deviation).

CRUD (chalk river unidentified deposits) is a porous material deposited on the surface of nuclear fuel during nuclear power plant operation. The CRUD is composed of metal oxides, such as iron, nickel, and chromium. It is essential to investigate the effects of the CRUD layer on the wall heat transfer between the nuclear fuel surface and the coolant in the event of a nuclear accident. CRUD only negatively affects the temperature of the nuclear fuel due to heat resistance because the effects of the CRUD layer on two-phase boiling heat transfer are not considered. In this study, the physical property models for the porous CRUD layer were developed and implemented into the SPACE code. The effects of boiling heat transfer models on the peak cladding temperature and quenching were investigated by simulating a reflood experiment. The calculation results showed some positive effects of the CRUD layer.

The thermochemical parameters for safe handling, storage, transport, operation and process design of flammable substances are explosive limit, flash point, autoignition temperature, minimum oxygen concentration, heat of combustion etc.. Explosive limit and autoignition temperature are the major physical properties used to determine the fire and explosion hazards of the flammable substances. Explosive limit and autoignition temperature of methane fur LNG process safety were investigated. By using the literatures data, the lower and upper explosive limits of methane recommended 4.8 vol$\%$ and 16 vol$\%$, respectively. Also autoignition temperatures of methane with ignition sources recommended $540^{\circ}C$ at the electrically heated cruicible furnace (the whole surface heating) and recommended about $1000^{\circ}C$ in the local hot surface. The new equations for predicting the temperature dependence and the pressure dependence of the lower explosive limits for methane are proposed. The values calculated by the proposed equations were a good agreement with the literature data.

In order to provide effective operating conditions for the fan in a wet cooling tower with film fill, a new program to search for the minimum fan power was developed using a model of the optimal total annual cost of the tower based on Merkel's model. In addition, a type of design map for a cooling tower was also developed. The inlet water temperature and heat load were considered as key parameters. The present program was first validated using several typical examples. The results showed that for a given heat load, a three-dimensional graph of the fan power (z-axis), mass flux of air (x-axis, minimum fan power), and inlet water temperature (y-axis, maximum of minimum fan power) showed a saddle configuration. The minimum fan power increased as the heat load increased. The conventionally known fact that the most effective cooling tower operation coincides with a high inlet water temperature and low air flow rate can be replaced by the statement that there exists an optimum mass flux of air corresponding to a minimum fan power for a given inlet water temperature, regardless of the heat load.

원자력용 316L강에 질소를 첨가한 경우의 고온 인장성질을 조사하였다. 온도가 증가하면 인장강도는 감소하다가 온도범위가 30$0^{\circ}C$~50$0^{\circ}C$에서는 일정한 값을 나타낸 후 급격한 감소를 나타내었고 연신율은 감소하다가 40$0^{\circ}C$에서 최소값을 나타낸 후 다시 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 질소를 첨가하면 인장강도증가와 함께 연신율도 증가하였다. 동적변형시효 온도구간에서 변형속도변화에 따른 인장강도 및 연신율의 변화는 매우 작다. 동적변형시효를 위한 활성화에너지를 구해본 결과 동적변형시효를 일으키는 원소는 Cr이다. 질소를 첨가하면 동적변형시효가 발생되는 온도가 고온 쪽으로 이동되었는데 이것은 질소가 Cr과의 상호작용에 의해 Cr의 확산속도를 낮추기 때문이다. 가공경화지수는 동적변형시효와 회복의 영향으로 40$0^{\circ}C$에서 최대값을 나타내었으며 이 온도는 연신율이 최소값을 나타내는 온도와 인장강도가 일정하게되는 온도와 일치하므로 강도강화기구는 동적변형시효로 판명되었다.

발전소 운영자는 운전 시작시점에서 수명 종료시점까지 발전소 과도상태 종류별 횟수가 설계 제한치를 넘지 않도록 감시하여야 하며 이를 위해서는 발전소 운전 과도상태 기록유지가 필요하다. 그러나 현재와 같은 발전소 운전 Strip Chart나 Log Sheet를 이용하는 방식으로는 과도상태 발생여부 판단이 어려울 뿐만 아니라 카운팅 자체에도 많은 시간이 소요되어 좀더 편리한 방법의 도입이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 발전소 주전산기의 운전 데이타를 이용한 과도상태 데이터 수집 및 지능형 과도상태 판단방법을 개발하여 시범 적용하였다. 과도상태 데이터 수집은 전송되는 데이터와 이전 데이터를 비교하여 변화가 있을 시에만 데이터 압축방식을 이용하여 저장하였고, 최대/최소온도, 최대/최소압력, 온도/압력기울기 등의 운전 데이타를 기 설정된 과도상태의 전체 변수와 비교하여 오차율 범위내에 들면 동일한 과도상태로 판단하였다. 원자로 냉각재 계통의 온도 및 압력과 같이 계기 오차가 비교적 작은($\pm$1$^{\circ}C$) 운전변수는 과도상태 판단이 용이하나 오차가 큰 운전변수의 경우에는 과도상태 판단을 위한 보다 상세한 알고리즘의 개발이 필요하다.
