This paper proposes and analyzes recycling of optical phonons emitted by nonradiative decay, which is a major thermal management concern for high-power light emitting diodes (LED), by introducing an integrated, heterogeneous barrier cooling layer. The cooling is proportional to the number of phonons absorbed per electron overcoming the potential barrier, while the multi-phonon absorption rate is inversely proportional to this number. We address the theoretical treatment of photon-electron-phonon interaction/transport kinetics for optimal number of phonons (i.e., barrier height). We consider a GaN/InGaN LED with a metal/AlGaAs/GaAs/metal potential barrier and discuss the energy conversion rates. We find that significant amount of heat can be recycled by the barrier transition cooling layer.

Four recycling scenarios involving pyroprocessing of spent fuel (SF) have been investigated for a 600-MWe transmutation sodium-cooled fast reactor (SFR), KALIMER. Performance evaluation was done with code system REBUS connected with TRANSX and TWODANT. Scenario Number 1 is the pyroprocessing of Canada deuterium uranium (CANDU) SF. Because the recycling of CANDU SF does not have any safety problems, the CANDU-Pyro-SFR system will be possible if the pyroprocessing capacity is large enough. Scenario Number 2 is a feasibility test of feed SF from a pressurized water reactor PWR. Thefsensitivity of cooling time before prior to pyro-processing was studied. As the cooling time sensitivity of cooling time before prior to pyro-processing was studied. As the cooling time increases, excess reactivity at the beginning of the equilibrium cycle (BOEC) decreases, thereby creating advantageous reactivity control and improving the transmutation performance of minor actinides. Scenario Number 3 is a case study for various levels of recovery factors of transuranic isotopes (TRUs). If long-lived fission products can be separated during pyroprocessing, the waste that is not recovered is classified as low- and intermediate-level waste, and it is sufficient to be disposed of in an underground site due to very low-heat-generation rate when the waste cooling time becomes >300 years at a TRU recovery factor of 99.9%. Scenario Number 4 is a case study for the recovery factor of rare earth (RE) isotopes. The RE isotope recovery factor should be lowered to ${\leq}20%$ in order to make sodium void reactivity less than <7$, which is the design limit of a metal fuel.

The normal cooling system of a refrigerator is applied to indirect a cooling methods. But the Kimchi refrigerator is applied to direct the cooling method. Recently when the model was applied to both direct and indirect the cooling methods, the improvement was considerable. With the development of the living standards in Korea, there has been more sensitive dissatisfaction about the taste and the smell of Kimchi. In order to solve these kinds, there is a need to systematic and scientific approach. Based on these, the purpose of this study is to optimize design for improve the storage period of Kimchi refrigerator. In this research, we concentrate on the temperature change and heat transfer characteristics of interior parts of the Kimchi refrigerator due to control cycle of temperature and flow phenomenon of cooling air.

In this paper, a separating system for used CRT recycling is presented. Depend on manufacturer CRTs has small differences in dimension for the same model, but the dimensions of the panel are nearly same. To simplifying configuration of the system, we developed CRT fixing pallets for every model of CRT. The height of cutting position for every model of CRT will be same. The cutting machine has two rotating arm and use metal-bond type diamond cutting wheel. Instead of water, two vortex tube type air-coolers are used for the cooling of cutter. Workers in recycling factory are generally old people. Therefore, control program should be easy to use and operate. Thus we developed GUI with very simple interface.

중${\cdot}$저준위 고체폐기물의 유리고화처리 적용연구를 위하여, 현대모비스는 원자력환경기술원 및 프랑스 SGN사와 공동으로 99년 10월에 유리화 실증설비를 건설한 바 있다. 실증설비를 활용하여 모의핵종(Co, Cs)을 포함한 비방사성 이온교환수지, 잡고체 등에 대한 70여 회 이상의 실증시험 수행을 통하여, 대상폐기물을 안전하고 효과적으로 처리할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 그러나 처리공정 중 고온세라믹필터계통(High Temperature Filter : HTF)에서 발생하는 분진의 처리가 문제점으로 도출되었다. 또한 저온용융로(Cold Crucible Melter : CCM)와 HTF를 연결하는 냉각파이프는 장기간 운전시 CCM으로부터 발생한 분진이 침적되어 배관막힘의 우려가 있다. 이와 관련, 기 개발한 유리화공정에 추가하여 HTF에서 발생한 분진을 재순환하는 장치와 냉각파이프 내 침적분진을 제거하는 장치를 개발하였다. 유리화공정 중 HTF에서 발생하는 분진의 처리는 유리화설비의 감용비, 처분비용 및 유리용탕의 조절 측면에서 특히 중요하다. 분진재순환장치(Dust Recycling System : DRS)의 개념은, HTF 하단부에서 발생분진을 수거, 물과 섞어 슬러리 형태로 제조, 이송하여 CCM 내로 다시 투입함으로써 분진을 처리할 수 있도록 하였다. DRS의 주 기능은 분진 내의 모의핵종 및 주요 유리성분을 다시 CCM으로 재순환 처리하는 것이며, 이에 따라 유리용탕의 성분을 일정하게 유지하고 또한 유리배출을 용이하게 하는 데 기여한다. 또한 시멘트 고화설비 등과 같은 별도의 분진처리설비를 고려할 필요가 없다. 제진장치는 주기적으로 운전 중 가동할 경우, 냉각파이프 내의 분진침적에 의한 막힘 방지와 함께 배관 내 침적된 분진을 CCM 내로 다시 처리하는 효과를 기대할 수 있다. 유리화실증시험을 통하여 DRS와 제진장치에 대한 전체적인 성능평가를 성공적으로 수행하였으며, 운전결과 및 경험은 향후 상용설비를 위한 기본자료로 활용할 것이다.

The new rheology fabrication process has been developed to rheo die casting and rheo forming process. Thixoforming process has disadvantages in terms of induction reheating process, scrap recycling, loss of raw material and cycle time. Therefore, to reduce the number of process, new rheology fabrication process with specially designed the rotational barrel type equipment has been proposed to apply in various part productions. The barrel type equipment, which could continuously fabricate the rheology materil, was specially designed to have a function to control cooling rate, shear rate and temperature. During the continuous rotation of barrel with a constant temperature, the shear rate is controlled with the rotation speed. The barrel surface has both the induction heating system and the cooling system to control the temperature of molten metal. By using this system, the effect of the rotation speed and the rotation time on the microstructure was widely examined. The possibility for the rheoforming process was investigated with microstructural characteristic.

This study provides a fundamental understanding of a cold finger melt crystallization technique by exploring the heat and mass transfer processes of cold finger separation. A series of experiments were performed using a simplified LiCl-CsCl system by varying initial CsCl concentrations (1, 3, 5, and 7.5 wt%), cold finger cooling rates (7.4, 9.8, 12.3, and 14.9 L/min), and separation times (5, 10, 15, and 30 min). Results showed a potential recycling rate of 0.36 g/min with a purity of 0.33 wt% CsCl in LiCl. A CsCl concentrated drip formation was found to decrease crystal purity especially for smaller crystal formations. Dimensionless heat and mass transfer correlations showed that separation production is primarily influenced by convective transfer controlled by cooling gas flow rate, where correlations are more accurate for slower cooling gas flow rates.

액체 추진 로켓 엔진에서 연소실로 향하는 산화제 공급은 연소기 산화제 개폐밸브에 의해서 제어된다. 산화제의 안정적인 공급을 위하여 밸브가 열려있을 때의 유량조건을 만족해야 할 뿐만 아니라, 산화제 공급라인의 예냉을 위해 밸브가 닫혀있을 때에도 요구되는 유량조건을 만족해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 연소기 산화제 개폐밸브의 재순환 유량특성을 확인하기 위한 시험을 수행하였고, 밸브 내부에 작용하는 힘평형 관계식을 이용하여 극저온 수명시험 이후 스프링 상수가 변화하는 경향을 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 국내 최초로 플라즈마 토치를 사용한 재(ash) 용융설비에서 발생한 슬래그를 대상으로 기존에 제시되지 않은 새로운 냉각방식(분체냉각방식)을 적용하여 현재 적용되고 있는 슬래그 냉각방법보다 적용성 및 부가가치를 높일 수 있는 냉각방식을 제시했다. 재료적 특성분석 및 토공재료로의 재활용 가능성을 검토하여 향후 공정 개발에 적용할 수 있는 방안을 제시하고자 한다. 소각재(ash)는 Y시의 fluidized bed method에서 배출되는 하수슬러지를 소각하여 실험재료로 사용하였다. 하수슬러지 소각 잔재의 XRF 분석결과는 $SiO_2$가 전체 32%로 가장 많은 비율을 차지하고 있으며, CaO, $Al_2O_3$, $Fe_2O_3$ 등이 주성분 원소로 구성되어 있다. XRD 분석결과에서는 냉각슬래그 입자로부터 전형적인 유리화 진행을 찾을 수 있었으며 냉각슬래그 분말로부터 크리스탈상이 관찰되었는데 그 이유는 분말이 녹지 않은 상태로 표면에 존재하기 때문이라 판단된다. EDX 분석으로부터 냉각매체로 사용된 전후에 분체의 성분이 바뀌지 않았으며 만약 다른 형태를 사용한다면 활용성이 더해진 분말을 생산할 수 있을 거라 판단된다.

This study purports to investigate the status quo of the environmentally-friendly green healthcare in teaching hospitals through the questionnaire survey. Data were collected from a total of 46 hospitals. The survey results revealed that most teaching hospitals did not meet the global standard of environmentally-friendly green hospitals. Especially, such items as alternative energy system, water recycling, CO2 emission reduction, green building construction, installation of pond or spring were found to be significantly below global standard. Based upon the study results, various strategies for establishing green hospitals were discussed. For example, energy saving design, such as solar heating, natural wind cooling, automatic temperature controller, green material use, wall surrounded by ivy, were recommended. In conclusion, the strategy and evaluation tool developed in the study will provide a good guide for establishing environmentally-friendly green hospitals.
