  • STREAM, developed by the Computational Reactor Physics and Experiment laboratory (CORE) of the Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST), is a deterministic neutron- and photon-transport code primarily designed for light water reactor (LWR) analysis. Initially, the photon module in STREAM did not account for fluorescence and bremsstrahlung photons. This article presents recent developments regarding the integration of atomic relaxation and bremsstrahlung models into the existing photon module, thus allowing for the transport of secondary photons. The photon flux and photon heating computed with the newly incorporated models is compared to results obtained with the Monte Carlo code MCS. The incorporation of secondary photons has substantially improved the accuracy of photon flux calculations, particularly in scenarios involving strong gamma emitters. However, it is essential to note that despite the consideration of secondary photon sources, there is no noticeable improvement in the photon heating for LWR problems when compared to the photon heating obtained with the previous version of STREAM.

  • In this paper, to investigate the activation energy, dipole moment, relaxation time, and so on related to charged particles more completely, it was applied numerical method of asymptotic estimation to separate single relaxation from TSC spectra with a complex relaxation. As a result, we could calculated the error of physical factors related to charged particles of specimen, more accurately.

  • In this paper, the properties of Thermally Stimulated Current was studied to understand carrier's behavior of $PVF_2$ film, to be regarded as the excellent piezo and pyroelectricity. The complex relaxation curve of Thermally Stimulated Current was divided into single relaxation style using Thermal Cleaning method. As a result of Applying the numerical method of asymtotic estimation to the divided single relaxation peak, we could calculated the physical factors related to charged particles of the specimen, more accurately.

  • Turbulence models are separately assessed for a three dimensional thermal-hydraulic analysis of the integral reactor SMART. Seven models (mixing length, k-l, standard $k-{\epsilon},\;k-{\epsilon}-f{\mu},\;k-{\epsilon}-v2$, RRSM, and ERRSM) are investigated for flat plate channel flow, rotating channel flow, and square sectioned U-bend duct flow. The results of these models are compared to the DNS data and experiment data. The results are assessed in terms of many aspects such as economical efficiency, accuracy, theorization, and applicability. The standard $k-{\epsilon}$ model (high Reynolds model), the $k-{\epsilon}-v2$ model, and the ERRSM (low Reynolds models) are selected from the assessment results. The standard $k-{\epsilon}$ model using small grid numbers predicts the channel flow with higher accuracy in comparison with the other eddy viscosity models in the logarithmic layer. The elliptic-relaxation type models, $k-{\epsilon}-v2$, and ERRSM have the advantage of application to complex geometries and show good prediction for near wall flows.

  • 사용후핵연료를 저장하는 볼트체결 저장용기의 격납경계를 형성하는 주된 구성요소는 금속 밀봉재이다. 이러한 금속 밀봉재는 열과 방사선에 의해 그 성질이 저하된다. 또한, 금속 밀봉재가 강한 열에 장기간 노출되면 크리프 현상이 발생한다. 이러한 크리프는 밀봉시스템에 응력 이완을 가져와서, 결국 밀봉재의 건전성을 해치게 된다. 이러한 응력 이완은 금속 밀봉재의 밀봉성능 저하로 이어지며, 저하의 정도에 따라 저장용기의 누설을 야기할 수 있다. 또한, 볼트 체결력의 감소도 밀봉성능 저하에 영향을 미친다. 본 논문에서는 금속 밀봉재의 격납건전성과 볼트체결력 감소를 평가하기 위해 수행한 가속화 시험의 결과에 대하여 기술한다. 전 시험기간 동안 각 시편에서의 누설률, 볼트 변형률, 금속 밀봉재 주변 온도를 계측하여 분석하였고, 금속 밀봉재는 저장기간 50년 동안 격납건전성을 유지함을 입증하였다. 또한, 가속화 시험의 타당성에 대해서 기술하였다.

  • 본 논문에서는 원자적 계산(atomistic calculation)을 위한 해석적 모델로 surface relaxation model을 제시한다. 기존의 분자정역학(molecular statics)이 모든 원자의 위치를 자유도로 선정하여 사용하는데 반하여, 이 모델은 면내방향에 해당하는 두 개의 자유도로 나노박막의 원자 위치를 기술하는 매우 간단한 방법이다. 본 연구에서는 surface relaxation model을 이용하여 표면응력(surface stress)과 표면강성계수(surface stiffness tensor)와 같은 표면인자(surface parameter)의 계산을 수행하고, surface stress model을 이용하여 평형상태에서의 원자의 위치정보를 계산한다. 그리고 surface relaxation model을 검증하기 위하여 분자동역학 전산모사(molecular dynamics simulation)의 수치 결과가 제시되며, 본 연구에서 계산한 equilibrium strain과 비교 검증한다.
