  • 최근 전 세계적으로 화석연료 고갈에 대비하여 신재생에너지에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행 중에 있다. 특히, 해상풍력발전기는 경제성 측면에서 매우 뛰어난 기술로 알려져 있다. 그런데, 해상 풍력발전기는 바람과 풍력 하중 때문에 저면에 큰 모멘트가 발생하므로 대구경 모노파일을 적용하는 것이 필요하다. 이 때, 대구경 말뚝을 경제적으로 설계하려면 기초구조물의 강성이 타워의 최대 모멘트 값에 미치는 영향을 고려하는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 기초구조물 강성을 산정할 때 모노파일의 대구경 효과를 정밀히 고려하기 위하여 3차원 유한요소해석을 수행하고, 기존의 p-y 해석법에 의한 강성산정 결과와 비교하였다. 본 연구에 적용한 예제의 해석결과, 기초구조물의 강성 산정방법에 따른 말뚝두부 최대 모멘트 값의 변화는 크지 않았지만 말뚝두부 최대 기울어짐 각의 경우 유한요소해석법이 p-y 해석법에 비하여 14% 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러므로, 기울어짐 각이 성능수준에 영향을 미치는 경우 유한요소해석법을 적용하여 기초강성 효과를 정밀하게 고려하는 것이 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

  • This study develops modeling processes for alignment optimization considering characteristics of intersections using genetic algorithms and GIS for road alignment optimization. Since existing highway alignment optimization models have neglected the characteristics of intersections, they have shown serious weaknesses for real applications. In this paper, intersection costs include earthwork, right-of-way, pavement, accident, delay and fuel consumption costs that are sensitive and dominating to alignments. Also, local optimization of intersections for saving good alignment alternatives is developed and embedded. A highway alignment is described by parametric representation in space and vector manipulation is used to find the coordinates of intersections and other interesting points. The developed intersection cost estimation model is sufficiently precise for estimating intersection costs and eventually enhancing the performance of highway alignment optimization models. Also, local optimization of intersections can be used for improving search flexibility, thus allowing more effective intersections. It also provides a basis for extending the alignment optimization from single highways to networks. The presented two artificial examples show that the total intersection costs are substantial and sensitive to highway alignments.

  • The objective of present work is to investigate experimentally the characteristics of heat transfer. A fluidized bed combustion has advantages of pollution control, fuel flexibility and excellent heat transfer. The present study investigates fundamental phenomena of bed-to-surface heat transfer in high temperature fluidized beds to improve design of immersed tube surface. The tested operating variables are bed temperature, supeficial velocity, mean size of bed material, and the rake angle of fin. Generally, heat transfer rates between the fluidized bed and immersed finned-tube are much higher than those of a smooth tube. A life time of finned-tube is generally longer than that of smooth tube.

  • New 42-volt automotive electrical systems can provide significant improvements in vehicle performance and fuel economy. It is crucial to provide protection against load dump and other overvoltage transients in 42-volt systems. While advanced active control techniques are generally considered capable of providing such protection, the use of passive transient voltage suppression (TVS) devices as a secondary or supplementary protection means can significantly improve design flexibility and reduce system costs. This paper examines the needs and options for passive TVS devices for 42-volt applications. The limitations of the commonly available automotive TVS devices, such as Zener diodes and metal oxide varistors (MOV), are analyzed and reviewed. A new TVS device concept, based on power MOSFET and thin-film polycrystalline silicon back-to-back diode technology, is proposed to provide a better control on the clamp voltage and meet the new 42-volt specification. Both experimental and modeling results are presented. Issues related to the temperature dependence and energy absorbing capability of the new TVS device are discussed in detail. It is concluded that the proposed TVS device provides a cost-effective solution for load dump protection in 42-volt systems.

  • Marketable permit system (MPS) is a economic incentive instrument that allows polluters to achieve static and dynamic efficiency, However, Korea's atmospheric regulations are primarily based upon command and control (CAC) system and partly upon economic incentive instruments, which fail to realize its relative effectiveness, Accordingly, an introduction of MPS has been recommended with the cost effectiveness analysis in numerous studies, The literature, however, did not consider the relationship between MPS and the existing regulations, which is a key factor for the successful introduction of MPS, This paper provides a set of principles to judge how the existing regulations are reconciled with the introduction of MPS, In addition, authors execute an empirical study to show MPS's cost effectiveness when regulators apply MPS in Ulsan area for the abatement of sulfur dioxide, The results suggest that the regulations such as fuel regulation should be excluded when implementing MPS, and a flexibility in legal and regulatory system is to be required in order to secure a successful implementation of MPS.

  • Friction factor and two-phase flow frictional multiplier for a CANFLEX bundle are newly developed and presented in this paper. CANFLEX as a 43-element fuel bundle has been developed jointly by AECL/KAERI to provide greater operational flexibility for CANDU reactor operators and designers. Friction factor and two-phase flow frictional multiplier have been developed by using the experimental data of pressure drops obtained from two series of Freon-l34a (R-134a) CHF tests with a string of simulated CANFLEX bundles in a single phase and a two-phase flow conditions. The friction factor for a CANFLRX bundle is found to be about 20 % higher than that of Blasius for a smooth circular pipe. The pressure drop predicted by using the new correlations of friction factor and two-phase frictional multiplier are well agreed with the experimental pressure drop data of CANFLEX bundle within ${\pm}\;5\;%$ error.

  • 고체산화물연료전지(SOFC)는 청정에너지기술로써 화학에너지를 전기에너지로 직접 전환한다. SOFC는 열병합발전과 결합하여 80%이상의 효율을 올릴 수 있으며 천연가스와 바이오가스 등 연료에 대한 융통성이 폴리머전해질막연료전지(PEMFC)보다 높다. YSZ전해질과 함께 SOFC에 주로 채용되는 공기극 재료는 아직까지 Sr이 첨가된 $LaMnO_3$(LSM)이다. LSM 이외에, 혼합전도성을 가지는 페로브스카이트로서 Sr첨가 $LaCoO_3$(LSCo), $LaFeO_3$(LSF), $LaFe_{0.8}Co_{0.2}O_3$(LSCF)는 공기극 임피던스가 LSM에 비해 현저히 낮아 연구가 증가하고 있다. 그러나 SOFC전극의 소결온도에서 YSZ과 고체반응을 일으키는 문제점과 열팽창 계수가 YSZ와 격차가 크게 나는 문제점 때문에 전극 제조가 복잡하다. 따라서 전해질과의 화학적 안정성 및 유사한 열팽창계수(TEC)를 가지면서 우수한 전기화학활성을 제공하는 것이 해결해야할 중요한 문제로 남는다.

  • 본 연구에서는 담합의 경제분석에서 고려해야 할 쟁점들을 논의한 후, 이러한 쟁점들을 반영한 방법론을 특정 수송용 연료시장의 분석에 적용하였다. 가상 경쟁가격과 과잉징수를 산정하는 5가지 방법 중 표준시장비교방법에 기반한 회귀분석방법이 최선이다. 수송용 연료시장에서와 같이 국제가격과 환율이 국내가격에 영향을 미치는 제품의 실거래가격을 분석하는 경우 논리에 부합하면서 유연한 함수형태는 로그-로그 함수형태이다. 경제분석의 대상이 되는 자료가 시계열자료인 경우에 ARDL 모형을 시장별 회귀분석모형의 근간으로 채택하는 것이 필요하며, 표준시장비교방법에 기반한 회귀분석방법에서는 구성 회귀식 간에 모수제약이 포함된 ARDL 회귀식 체계를 구축하고 system FGLS로 추정하여야 한다. Friedman 동질성 검정을 통하여 표준시장 여부를 판별할 수 있다. 통계적 유의성은 불확실성 하에서 입증하고자 하는 명제를 확립하는데 요구되는 최소의 요건이다. 담합관련 소송의 경제분석에서는 민감도 분석은 그다지 유용성이 없으며, 최적모형 선별과정이 더 중요한 절차이다. 위 방법론을 특정 수송용 연료시장의 분석에 적용한 결과, 해당 시장에서는 담합에 기인하는 손해액이 없다는 귀무가설을 기각할 수 없었다.

  • 고온 운전이 가능한 고체산화물 연료전지의 최대의 장점은 내부개질을 통한 연료의 다양성에 있다. 하지만 기존의 Ni/SYZ전극은 탄소침적에 대한 단점을 가지고 있고, 이를 해결하기 위해 페로브스카이트 구조의 연료극 개발이 진행되었다. 본 연구에서는 페로브스카이트 대체 연료극의 낮은 전기전도도 및 촉매활성을 향상시키기 위해 rGO(reduced graphene oxide)를 Sr0.92Y0.08TiO3(SYT)와 혼합하여 연료극에 대한 성능 평가를 진행하였다. Ni/YSZ(yttria stabilized zirconia)와 SYT에 1wt%rGO를 첨가하여 연료극을 합성하였다. 고온 산화조건에서 전극 제조 후 rGO의 유무 확인은 XPS 및 라만 분석을 통해 확인하였다. rGO/SYT 연료극은 rGO 대비 H2에서 3배, CH4에서 6배의 매우 큰 성능 향상을 보여주었다.

  • Energy supply is increasingly showing up as a major issue for electricity supply, transportation, settlement, and process heat industrial supply including hydrogen production. Nuclear power is part of the solution. For electricity supply, as exemplified in Finland and France, the EPR brings an immediate answer; HTR could bring another solution in some specific cases. For other supply, mostly heat, the HTR brings a solution inaccessible to conventional nuclear power plants for very high or even high temperature. As fossil fuels costs increase and efforts to avoid generation of Greenhouse gases are implemented, a market for nuclear generated process heat will be developed. Following active developments in the 80's, HTR have been put on the back burner up to 5 years ago. Light water reactors are widely dominating the nuclear production field today. However, interest in the HTR technology was renewed in the past few years. Several commercial projects are actively promoted, most of them aiming at electricity production. ANTARES is today AREVA's response to the cogeneration market. It distinguishes itself from other concepts with its indirect cycle design powering a combined cycle power plant. Several reasons support this design choice, one of the most important of which is the design flexibility to adapt readily to combined heat and power applications. From the start, AREVA made the choice of such flexibility with the belief that the HTR market is not so much in competition with LWR in the sole electricity market but in the specific added value market of cogeneration and process heat. In view of the volatility of the costs of fossil fuels, AREVA's choice brings to the large industrial heat applications the fuel cost predictability of nuclear fuel with the efficiency of a high temperature heat source tree of Greenhouse gases emissions. The ANTARES module produces 600 MWth which can be split into the required process heat, the remaining power drives an adapted prorated electric plant. Depending on the process heat temperature and power needs, up to 80% of the nuclear heat is converted into useful power. An important feature of the design is the standardization of the heat source, as independent as possible of the process heat application. This should expedite licensing. The essential conditions for success include: ${\bullet}$ Timely adapted licensing process and regulations, codes and standards for such application and design ${\bullet}$ An industry oriented R&D program to meet the technological challenges making the best use of the international collaboration. Gen IV could be the vector ${\bullet}$ Identification of an end user(or a consortium of) willing to fund a FOAK
