원전 계획예방정비기간 증기발생기 수실작업 등은 매우 높은 방사선량율을 보이는 지역으로, 짧은 시간 동안 작업으로 종사자는 높은 피폭을 받을 가능성이 있다. 특히, 방사성물질과 접촉작업을 하는 손 부위에서 고피폭이 예상된다. 이런 점을 고려하여 2004년 수행된 국내 원전의 복수선량계 알고리즘 적용성 시험의 TLD 판독결과를 이용하여 고피폭 접촉 작업의 방사선장을 분석하였다. 그 결과, 원전 고피폭 접촉작업의 입사방사선장은 고에너지 광자(High Energy Photon Field)에 의한 피폭으로 해석되었다. 한편 2009년 울진 4호기 계획예방정비기간 S/G 정비작업과 월성 1호기 압력관 교체작업에 참여한 방사선작업종사자에 대해 말단선량 현황과 방사선장을 분석하기위한 현장시험을 실시하였다. 그 결과 입사방사선장은 고에너지 방사선장으로 확인되었다.

본 연구에서는 하이브리드 추진 연소에서 산화제의 상(Phase)에 따른 연소특성 변화를 연구하였다. 산화제는 $GN_2O$와 $LN_2O$를 사용하고 고체연료는 HDPE(High Density PolyEthlene)를 적용하여 연소실험을 수행하였고, 상에 따른 고체연료의 후퇴율과 압력선도, 연소효율의 변화 등을 조사하였다. $LN_2O$를 적용할 경우 액체 산화제의 기화에 필요한 잠열이 화염에서 발생되는 연소에너지에 비해 무시할 정도로 작아 $GN_2O$를 산화제로 사용했을 때의 고체연료 후퇴율과는 큰 차이가 없었지만, 추진 성능효율이 낮아짐을 확인하였고, 액체 산화제의 유량이 증가할수록 산화제의 기화에 필요한 열전달 증가로 인 해 연소 불안정성이 커짐을 확인하였다.

We have extensively characterized the fluorescence behavior of unsaturated polyester (UP) resin in the absence and presence of a 1,3-bis-(l-pyrenyl)propane (BPP) fluorescent probe at various dynamic and isothermal cure histories by means of a steady-state fluorescence technique using a front-face illumination equipment. In addition, we explored the effect of the fluorescence intensity on the relaxation of the fluorescent probe in the UP resin by resting the dynamically and isothermally cured resin at ambient temperature and pressure for 24 h. The monomer fluorescence intensity, which has two characteristic peaks at 376 and 396nm, changed noticeably depending on the cure temperature and time and provided important information with respect to the molecular and photophysical responses upon curing. The result of the fluorescence study indicates that the increased local viscosity and restricted molecular mobility of the UP resin surrounding the BPP probe after curing are both responsible for the enhancement of the monomer fluorescence intensity. Our results also demonstrate that once the BPP probe has enough time to rearrange and become isolated prior to fluorescence, a sufficient amount of fluorescence is emitted. Therefore, we note that the fluorescence behavior of this UP resin system is influenced strongly by the relaxation process of the fluorescent probe in the resin as well as process used to cure the resin.

많은 기존 공식중 세계의 가장 우수한 최대 유량공식을 찾아, 그 세개의 한계유량공식의 개요와, 냉각재상실사고시 격납용기격리에 실패하는 경우를 특정지을 수 있는 구멍의 크기와 격납용기의 압력 및 온도 등이 주어진 상태하에서 격납용기로부터 외부대기로 방출되는 개략적인 핵분열생성물의 양을 추정하기 위한 계산절차를 제시하였다. 이상기체의 임계유량공식과 이상유(two-phase flow)의 최대유량을 산출하기 위한 무디(Moody)의 도표를 이용하여 계산실예를 제시하였으며, 그 결과를 콘뎀프트-앨티(CONTEMPT-LT) 전산코드의 질량유출공식을 콘버징 노즐(converging nozzle)을 통과하는 음속류(sonic flow)의 경우에 적용하여 산출한 값과 비교하여 보았다. 이리하여 이상 기체의 임계유량공식은 무디(Moody)의 공식이 주는 값과 거의 비슷한 결과를 줌을 입증하였다. 또한 냉각재상실 사고시 격납용기로부터의 유출율을 추정하기 위해서는 콘템프트-앨티(CONTEMPT-LT)의 질량유출공식을 사용하는 것보다 이상 기체의 최대유량공식을 사용하는 것이 더 보수적인 방법임을 보여 주었다.

Calibrated in Gwan. sum of pulse pressure (SPP) of HT group was higher than that of the healthy group. Calibrated in Cheek, mean of height of main peak (Mm) and height of main peak (h1) of HT group were higher than those of the healthy group. Conclusions : Pulse analyzer was useful to determine the risk degree or development possibility of hypertension.

Most of the nuclear power plants(NPPs) adopts pressure difference type flow meters such as venturi and orifice meters for the measurement of feedwater flow rates to calculate reactor thermal power. However, corrosion products in the feedwater deposits on the flow meter by fouling as operating time goes. These effects lead to severe errors in the flow indication and then determination of reactor thermal power. The averaging BDFT, which has developed by Yun et al., has a potentiality to minimize this problem thanks to its inherent measurement principle. Therefore, it is expected that the averaging BDFT can replace the venturi meter for the feedwater pipe of steam generator of NPPs. The present work compares the amplification factor, K, based on CFD calculation against the K obtained from experiments in order to confirm whether a commercial CFD code can be applicable to the evaluation of characteristic for the averaging BDFT. In addition to this, the simulations to take into account of fouling effect are also carried out by rough wall option. The results show that the averaging BDFT is a promising flow meter for the accurate measurement of flow rates in the fouling condition of the NPPs.

Among the feffoelectric thin films that have been widely investigated for ferroelectric random access memory (FRAM) applications, SrBi$_2$Ta$_2$$O_{9}$ thin film is appropriate to memory capacitor materials for its excellent fatigue endurance. However, very few studies on etch properties of SBT thin film have been reported although dry etching is an area that demands a great deal of attention in the very large scale integrations. In this study, the a SrBi$_2$Ta$_2$$O_{9}$ thin films were etched by using magnetically enhanced inductively coupled Ar/CHF$_3$ plasma. Etch properties, such as etch rate, selectivity, and etched profile, were measured according to gas mixing ratio of CHF$_3$(Ar$_{7}$+CHF$_3$) and the other process conditions were fixed at RF power of 600 W, dc bias voltage of 150 V, chamber pressure of 10 mTorr. Maximum etch rate of SBT thin films was 1750 A77in, under CHF$_3$(Ar+CHF$_3$) of 0.1. The selectivities of SBT to Pt and PR were 1.35 and 0.94 respectively. The chemical reaction of etched surface were investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis. The Sr and Ta atoms of SBT film react with fluorine and then Sr-F and Ta-F were removed by the physical sputtering of Ar ion. The surface of etched SBT film with CHF$_3$(Ar+CHF$_3$) of 0.1 was analyzed by secondary ion mass spectrometer (SIMS). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used for examination of etched profile of SBT film under CHF$_3$(Ar+CHF$_3$) of 0.1 was about 85˚.85˚.˚.

A preliminary study of a new pulsatile pump that will work to a frequency greater than 1 Hz, is presented. The fluid-structure interaction between a Newtonian blood flow and a piston drive that moves with periodic speed is simulated. The mechanism is of double effect and has four valves, two at the input flow and two at the output flow; the valves are simulated with specified velocity of closing and reopening. The simulation is made with finite elements software named COMSOL Multiphysics 3.3 to resolve the flow in a preliminary planar configuration. The geometry is 2D to determine areas of high speeds and high shear stresses that can cause hemolysis and platelet aggregation. The opening and closing valves are modelled by solid structure interacting with flow, the rhythmic opening and closing are synchronized with the piston harmonic movement. The boundary conditions at the input and output areas are only normal traction with reference pressure. On the other hand, the fluid structure interactions are manifested due to the non-slip boundary conditions over the piston moving surfaces, moving valve contours and fix pump walls. The non-physiologic frequency pulsatile pump, from the viewpoint of fluid flow analysis, is predicted feasible and with characteristic of low hemolysis and low thrombogenesis, because the stress tension and resident time are smaller than the limit and the vortices are destroyed for the periodic flow.

유도 결합 플라즈마를 활용하여 $Ar/CO_2$ 혼합가스에서 이산화탄소를 분해하는 연구이다. 고밀도 플라즈마를 발생시키기 위해 Ar 가스를 첨가하였고 이산화탄소 분해율을 측정하기 위해 광학적 광량 측정법을 사용 하였다. 유도 결합 플라즈마를 방전시키고 인가 전력, 압력, 혼합가스 비율을 변경하가며 단일 랭뮤어 프로브를 이용해 플라즈마 변수를 얻고 방출 분광기로 얻은 빛의 스펙트럼을 이용하여 분해율을 측정하였다. 측정된 플라즈마 변수로부터 $CO_2$ 유도 결합 플라즈마의 소스 특성을 확인했고 $CO_2$ 분해 메커니즘은 플라즈마 변수에 직접적인 영향을 받기 때문에 그 상관관계를 분석하였다.

In this paper, chamber(Circuit breaker compartment of C-GIS) made of stainless steel with 4 mm width is used. Artificial defect was made on enclosure or HV conductor of chamber and $SF_6$ gas was injected into it according to pressure. In this experiment, Acoustic emission sensors of different types was used to compare sensitivity to detect acoustic signal occurred by Partial discharge(PD) of according to types and resonance frequency in $SF_6$ gas atmosphere. Sensors used in tests was R6I, R15I and 2/4/6 Pre-Amplifier connected with R6IU without pre. amp. In case of R6IU, gain was adjusted with 40 dB like other sensors and operated by differential mode. Post amplifier(post. amp) and band pass filter(BPF) were developed Gain of post. amp. is 60 dB and BPF has band width of $50{\sim}300$ kHz. Also, envelope circuit developed reduces frequency of AE sensor. As a result, in $SF_6$ atmosphere, R6IU and R6I had resonance frequency of 60 Hz was better than R15I. Also, R6IU was better than R6I because of type property of pre.amp. had differential mode.
