In this study, two different technologies which can measure temperature simultaneously at many points are introduced. One is to use a thermal sensor cable that is comprised of addressable thermal sensors connected in parallel within a single cable. The other is to use an optic fiber with Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) system. The difference between two technologies can be summarized as follows. A thermal sensor cable has a concept of 'point sensing' that can measure temperature at accurate position of a thermal sensor. So the accuracy and resolution of temperature measurement are up to the ability of the thermal sensor. Whereas optic fiber sensor has a concept of 'distributed sensing' because temperature is measured by ratio of Stokes and anti-Stokes component intensities of Raman backscatter that is generated when laser pulse travels along an optic fiber. It's resolution is determined by measuring distance, measuring time and spatial resolution. The purpose of this study is that application targets of two temperature measurement techniques are checked in technical and economical phases by examining the strength and weakness of them. Considering the functions and characteristics of two techniques, the thermal sensor cable will be suitable to apply to the assessment of groundwater flow, geothermal distribution and grouting efficiency within 300m distance. It is expected that the optic fiber sensor can be widely utilized at various fields (for example: pipe line inspection, tunnel fire detection, power line monitoring etc.) which need an information of temperature distribution over relatively long distance.

Blending process of adhesive production has a cooling process to cool down the temperature of the solution which was heated up to 76 ℃ with a mineral insulated (MI) cable by 30 ℃ at room temperature. Using a MI cable in the adhesive production process makes the production inefficient because it takes about 10 h for the cooling process. If a jacketed vessel is used instead of the MI cable, it would shorten the cooling downtime without any additional cooling system by using cold water. However, there are various types of jacketed vessels, and thus the most suitable type should be found before set up. In this study, we designed the optimized jacketed vessel for the adhesive production process by calculating the cooling downtime, which impacts production efficiency, as a function of the jacket types using computational fluid dynamics. As a result, the cooling performance of the plain jacket was 32.7% superior to that of the half-pipe coil jacket with the same height. In addition, the plain jacket with 60% spiral baffle reduced the cooling downtime and operating time by 80.4% and 25.1%, respectively.

The subsea power cables are increasingly important for harvesting renewable energies as we develop offshore wind farms located at a long distance from shore. Particularly, the continuous flexural motion of inter-array dynamic power cable of floating offshore wind turbine causes tremendous fatigue damages on the cable. As the subsea power cable consists of the helical structures with various components unlike a mooring line and a steel pipe riser, the fatigue analysis of the cables should be performed using special procedures that consider stick/slip phenomenon. This phenomenon occurs between inner helically wound components when they are tensioned or compressed by environmental loads and the floater motions. In particular, Vortex-induced vibration (VIV) can be generated by currents and have significant impacts on the fatigue life of the cable. In this study, the procedure for VIV fatigue analysis of the dynamic power cable has been established. Additionally, the respective roles of programs employed and required inputs and outputs are explained in detail. Demonstrations of case studies are provided under severely sheared currents to investigate the influences on amplitude variations of dynamic power cables caused by the excitation of high mode numbers. Finally, sensitivity studies have been performed to compare dynamic cable design parameters, specifically, structural damping ratio, higher order harmonics, and lift coefficients tables. In the future, one of the fundamental assumptions to assess the VIV response will be examined in detail, namely a narrow-banded Gaussian process derived from the VIV amplitudes. Although this approach is consistent with current industry standards, the level of consistency and the potential errors between the Gaussian process and the fatigue damage generated from deterministic time-domain results are to be confirmed to verify VIV fatigue analysis procedure for slender marine structures.

본 논문은 초고압 전력케이블의 접속재 개발을 위한 연구결과로써, 접속시스템의 핵심기술인 고절연 고무슬리브 및 현장에서 접속 작업의 용이성을 위한 Carrier Pipe의 구조해석과 전기적 절연설계에 의한 주요부의 전기적 특성과 전계의 집중을 완화하기 위해 Simulation Tool을 이용한 수치해석 등을 실시하여 최적화된 제품을 제작하였다. 절연설계 및 전계완화 해석에서는 고절연 고무슬리브 구조에서 전계가 집중될 수 있는 중요 포인트를 벡터로 선정하였고 이를 기초로 전계해석을 진행하여 선정된 포인트들에서 전계가 집중됨을 검증하였다. 접속재의 수축거동 해석에 의하면, Carrier Pipe의 구조적 안전성을 확보하기 위하여 고절연 고무슬리브로부터의 압력을 구하여 계산한 결과 최소한 9mm이상의 Carrier Pipe 두께가 필요한 것으로 파악 되었다. 이것은 충분한 강도뿐만 아니라 Carrier Pipe의 변형발생으로 인한 현장에서의 설치문제까지 고려하게 된 값이다. 고절연 고무슬리브 제품설계 에서는 고절연 고무슬리브의 특성조건을 설정하였고 고절연 고무슬리브 제품 및 Carrier Pipe의 Interface 설계 기준을 파악하기 위하여 기존의 고절연 고무슬리브를 활용하여 Carrier Pipe와의 장착 Test를 진행하였다. 그 결과, 확장비율 110%로 적용하였을 경우는 30시간 후에는 완전 붕괴가 되었고, 붕괴가 시작되는 지점이 고절연 고무슬리브의 중앙매립전극 경계면으로써, Simulation Tool을 활용한 접속재 수축 거동 해석 결과와도 일치함을 검증 할 수 있었다.

The thermal analysis is accomplished with the route for the underground power transmission system which adopts the water pipe cooling with trough in tunnel. As a result, in case of a cooling system based on a refrigerator, the optimum condition for the flow rate of cooling water and the air velocity are calculated as the $2{\sim}3{\ell}/s/pipe$ and $1{\sim}2m/s/fan$, respectively. On the other hand, in case of cooling tower the optimum condition for them are calculated as the $2{\sim}3{\ell}/s/pipe$ and 6 m/s/fan, respectively. But the cooling system based on a cooling tower has the problem of enlarging the size of cooling fan and suppressing the labor of operator in tunnel. Therefore, to meet all the cooling conditions for a given cooling section, the cooling system based on a refrigerator is more acceptable.

DuraMote is a remote sensing system developed for the "NIST TIP project: next generation SCADA for prevention and mitigation of water system infrastructure disaster". It is designed for supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) of ruptures in water pipes. Micro-electro mechanical (MEMS) accelerometers, which record the vibration of the pipe wall, are used detect the ruptures. However, the performance of Duramote cannot be verified directly on a water distribution system because it lacks an acceptable recordable level of ambient vibration. Instead, a long-span cable-stayed bridge is an ideal test-bed to validate the accuracy, the reliability, and the robustness of DuraMote because the bridge has an acceptable level of ambient vibration. The acceleration data recorded on the bridge were used to identify the modal properties of the structure and to verify the performance of DuraMote. During the test period, the bridge was subjected to heavy rain, wind, and a typhoon but the system demonstrates its robustness and durability.

A magnetic cable that can safely deliver high frequency AC electric power in flammable or sensitive workplaces by preventing from arcs and electric shocks is firstly proposed in this paper. Several new magnetic cable structures with magnetic shields, which are composed of such cancel coil, cancel copper plate, and cancel copper pipe, were compactly implemented by considering and analyzing fringe field and thus the parallel leakage flux is drastically reduced. The output power and efficiency of a prototype magnetic cable with 1.5 m length and 5 cm gap were measured as 353.8W and 68%, where the source current and switching frequency were 10 $A_{rms}$ and 20 kHz, respectively. The proposed magnetic cables are fully analyzed and verified by finite-element method (FEM) simulations and experiments. The results are in a good agreement.
