The heat transport system transients of Wolsong 2,3,4 nuclear power plants were analysed during abnormal operating conditions. The compliance with requirements of AECB Regulatory Document R-77 for CANDU reactor was estimated. The analysis results showed that for each postulated accident the peak pressure values in the reactor headers are within the acceptance criteria given in ASME code requirements. The effect of LRV that is one of the overpressure protection device was very minor.

본 연구에서는 현장규모의 biopile을 제작하여 유류로 오염된 토양을 정화하였다. 오염토양의 TPH농도는 평균 2,800mg/kg(최고 3,590mg/kg)이었으며, 오염토양의 양은 $746m^3$이었다. Biopile $(17{\times}20{\times}2.5m)$을 약 3개월간 운전하며 일정 시간 간격으로 토양가스($O_2,\;CO_2)$ 및 VOCs) 및 토양의 TPH농도를 분석하였다. 지속적인 공기의 주입/추출에 의해 biopile내부는 호기조건을 유지하였으며, 미생물의 활성도 증가에 따라 이산화탄소의 농도가 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 또한 토양가스 분석결과 휘발성 유기오염물질(VOCs)은 약 40일 경과 후 90% 제거되었으며, 90일 경과 후 토양의 TPH 제거율은 98%로 나타났다.

In order to investigate why OSA (oxic-settling-anaerobic) process produces less sludge than CAS (conventional activated sludge) process, sequential cultivation through 1^st aerobic-anaerobic-2^nd aerobic conditions, were carried out. Then, the intracellular concentrations of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD and NADH), and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP and NADPH) were monitored for these three stages. Results showed that the concentrations of these energy substances rapidly decreased through time in both aerobic and anaerobic conditions but the anaerobic culture contained the lower energy level than aerobic culture. The 2^nd aerobic culture that experienced anaerobic condition showed lower concentration of these energy substances than those of the 1^st aerobic culture. Meanwhile, the anaerobic culture corresponding to the sludge holding stage of OSA was subjected to different soluble chemical oxygen demand (SCOD) levels, detention time, and temperature to evaluate the effects of these variations on the energy level difference between the 1^st and 2^nd aerobic stages. The lower the SCOD concentration, the longer detention time; and the higher temperature in the anaerobic stage tended to further reduce the intracellular level of the 2^nd aerobic culture. On the average, the intracellular energy level of the anaerobic and 2^nd aerobic stage were 57.73% and 39.12% of the 1st aerobic culture, respectively. These indicated that the insertion of an anaerobic stage between two aerobic stages could lower the intracellular energy levels, hence the lower the sludge in OSA than CAS process. Moreover, manipulation of the operating conditions of the intervening anaerobic stage can change intracellular energy levels thereby controlling sludge production.

We reported an outbreak of clinical strangles in thoroughbred horses due to capnophilic Streptococcus equi subsp equi in South Korea. On three different farms, we isolated 17 S equi subsp equi isolates from 29 horses with or without abscesses in their lymph nodes. Of the 17 isolates, two isolates from clinical cases grew well in aerobic conditions, whereas 7/7 isolates from clinical cases and 8/22 isolates from the nasal discharges of horses did not. The latter 15 isolates were capnophilic, oxygen-sensitive, and $CO_2$-requiring S equi subsp equi, which could not grow in aerobic conditions, but which grew well in a $CO_2$ incubator with 5% $CO_2$, in anaerobic conditions using a GasPak, and with reduced oxygen tension in a candle jar. This study is the first report of a strangles outbreak caused by capnophilic S equi subsp equi in South Korea.

In order to study the effects of silage additive on the quality and in preventing aerobic deterioration, reed canarygrass silages were made with various levels of formic acid, caproic acid and a mixture of the two acids. Preparation of silages cutted into about 1.5 cm length with the forage cutter and packed in vinyl bags(50 kg of capacity, 0.1 mrn of thickness), and it also divided nine types of experimental treatments. Aerobic deterioration in the silages were investigated for 7 days of aerobic exposure periods, and the plastic vessel of diameter 25 cm, a height 30 cm used as a tool. The results obtained from this experiment are summarized as fellow. 1. Crude protein and NFE contents at the time if opening were increased in the silage with mixture of formic and caproic acids(P<0.01). Crude fiber and ADF contents during the 7 days of aerobic exposure periods were the decreased in the sslages with mixture of two acods treatment(P<0.01). 2. Temperature of the silage treated with fromic acid alone during the 2 days of aerobic exposure period reached$34.4^{\circ}C$, while that of the silage with caproic acid and mixture formic and caproic acids were not rapidly increased resulting by reduced aerobic deteriorarion. 3. The pH of silages treated with formic acid alone during 7 days of aerobic exposure was not effectively changed, while solages treated with caproic acid were effectively stabilized. 4. The ratio of amminia nitrogen to total nitrogen was significantly decreased in silages with formic acid>caproic acid>mixture of both in the order(P<0.01). 5. Microbiological population of the silage were positively changed during the 7 days of aerobic exposure period. Solages with formic acid were deteriorated at ensiling observed, while applicarion of 1.2% caproic acid was partially reduced deteriorarion by precenting of the growth moulds.

A SGTR accident postulated at Kori unit 1 is simulated with Mihama unit experience, which occurred on February 1991, to evaluate the capability of plant to cope with the transient. The system design and plant conditions of Kori Unit 1 are much similar with those of Mihama Unit 2. Therefore, special concern has been given to evaluate the sequence and the resulting consequence of the postulated SGTR accident at the Kori unit 1 An analysis is peformed as realistically as possible, with following the EOP of Kori unit 1. The result indicates that the leak through tube break terminates within about forty minutes, and the Kori unit 1 may be sufficient to cope with SGTR accident with same type of sequence. However, the reconsideration may be required for the design of Kori unit 1 which disconnects non-safety AC power from off-site power on SI signal generation. It may be pointed out that the content of EOP for SGTR accident is not enough to require operator's proper judgements. An analysis of SGTR accident tested in the LSTF which simulated the SGTR accident at the Mihama Unit 2 is peformed using the RELAP5/MOD3. The results indicates that the code yields in general good agreement with the test, except the break flowrate at the early stage of the event.

YGN 3 is the first nuclear power plant to use the Core Protection Calculator (CPC) as the core protection system and the Core Operating Limit Supervisory System (COLSS) as the core monitor-ing system in Korea. The CPC is designed to provide on-line calculations of Departure from Nucleate Boiling Ratio (DNBR) and Local Power Density (LPD) and to initiate reactor trip if the core conditions exceed the DNBR or LPD design limit. The COLSS is designed to assist the operator in implementing the Limiting Conditions for Operation (LCOs) in Technical Specifications for DNBR/Linear Heat Rate (LHR) margin, azimuthal tilt, and axial shape index and to provide alarm when the LCOs are reached. During YGN 3 initial startup testing, extensive CPC/COLSS related tests ore peformed to ver-ify the CPC/COLSS performance and to obtain optimum CPC/COLSS calibration constants at var, -ious core conditions. Most of test results met their specific acceptance criteria. In the case of missing the acceptance criteria, the test results ore analyzed, evaluated, and justified. Through the analysis and evaluation of each of the CPC/COLSS related test results, it can be concluded that the CPC/COLSS are successfully Implemented as designed at YGN 3.

미국과 유럽에서는 이미 10여 년 전부터 250MW급 이상의 대용량 석탄IGCC 플랜트를 상업운전 하고 있으며, 일본과 중국을 비롯한 아시아에서도 대용량 플랜트를 시운전하고 있거나 건설 중에 있다. 한국에서는 제4차 전력수급계획에 의거 태안화력 부지 내에 300MW급 IGCC 플랜트 건설을 추진 중이며, 두산중공업은 '10년 상반기에 IGCC 가스화 플랜트에 대한 FEED 설계 (Front-Eng Engineering Design)를 완료하였다. 그 과정 중 설계조건에 의한 기본 엔지니어링 사항과 석탄 가스화 플랜트에 대한 성능예측 결과를 본 연구에서 소개한다. 가스화 플랜트의 엔지니어링은 가스화 블록과 가스정제 블록으로 구분하여 수행하였다. Process Data를 이용하여 PFD Development, P&ID Generation, Equipment Specification 개발, HAZOP 수행, Architecture Engineering 등의 순으로 FEED 설계를 진행하였다. BOD (Basis of Design)를 기준으로 운전조건별 Heat & Mass Balance와 Process Flow를 재검토하고 각 기기별 운전개념을 반영하여 P&ID를 개발하였다. 그리고 배관, 전기 및 제어에 대한 각종 Diagram 개발과 HSE (Health, Safety and Environment) 관련 설계를 수행하였다. IGCC 1호기의 엔지니어링 수행과 함께 Next 호기 자체설계 역량 확보를 위해 두산중공업은 'DIGITs'로 명명된 개념기본설계 Tool을 개발하고 있다. DIGITs는 공정모델링, 단위기기 개념설계, 공정구성 (Process Configuration) 및 종합 Database Package 형태로 구성된다. DIGITs에 의한 계산 결과 공정사 Process Data 기준시 가스화 블록 출구에서 Syngas HHV와 Syngas 현열은 각각 약 $636MW_{th}$와 약 $18MW_{th}$로, Plant 설계조건 $630MW_{th}$를 만족하는 것으로 예측되었다. 향후 DIGITs는 가스정제 블록 및 주변 BOP 설비 등과 연계한 종합 개념기본설계 Tool로써 개발 진행 중이다.
