국내 캠핑문화의 확산과 국민 여가문화의 선진화에 따라 야영인구 및 야영장의 수가 급속히 증가하고 있다. 야영인구 및 야영장 수의 빠른 증가로 인하여 안전사고 또한 급격히 증가하고 있어서 효율적인 안전관리 대책이 필요하다. 특히, 과열에 의한 부탄캔의 폭발, 밀폐된 공간에서 연소기 사용에 의한 CO 중독 등의 가스사고가 증가하고 있으므로 사고를 예방하는데 집중할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 취사장, 샤워장 등 야영장 시설에서 사용되는 액화석유가스 시설과 주요 캠핑용품의 사용실태 및 위험요소를 분석하고 효과적인 안전관리 방안 도출을 위한 방향을 제시하고자 하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 통해 국내 야영장 내 액화석유가스 사용 상 안전 관리 효율성 증대에 도움이 될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

본 연구에서는 부탄가스를 연료로 사용하고 있는 이동식 적외선 가스히터의 연소시 배출되는 배기가스의 농도수준과 특성을 분석하였다. 실험은 연소 챔버의 크기와 챔버의 온도를 고려하여 실험을 수행하였다. 산소결핍 안전장치가 작동하는 $O_2$의 농도는 챔버의 내용적에 관계없이 $18.3\%$로 각각 나타났고, 작동하는 시간은 내용적이 클수록 늦게 작동하였다. 밀폐공간에서 연소시 $O_2$와 $CO_2$는 선형성을 가지며, CO농도는 $O_2$나 $CO_2$의 발생수준과는 관계없이 연소가 시작된 10분 이후부터 그 발생폭이 불규칙적으로 크게 나타났다. 이들 결과는 가스 난방기를 실내에서 사용할 때 충분한 환기를 통하여 불안전 연소를 방지하고 $O_2$ 감소에 따른 질식사고와 CO에 의한 중독사고를 예방할 수 있다는 측면에서 대단히 중요하다.

In this study, the difference of flame stability zone for natural gases from producing districts was studied experimentally using a new type of flame stability diagram. The similarity of stable flame zone between a domestic appliance and an interchangeability test(IT) burner is also examined. As a result, the stable flame zones expressed by limits curves of flame lifting and yellow tipping show the similar results in a domestic gas range and IT burner. Furthermore, IT burner can reproduce the flash back phenomena and show the distinct difference of fuel type as the burner diameter is increased. To suggest the new type of flame stability diagram in the respect of fuel interchangeability, the air flowrate and Wobbe fuel flowrate were adopted as axis coordinates. It can be identified that the new diagram can provide the useful information on the difference of flame stability zone, heat input rate and air-fuel ratio when a fuel is altered to other fuels under the identical operating conditions. Finally, the stable flame zones for natural gas of 6 type are compared, and the detailed information to use as the interchangeability fuels of standard natural gas is provided using the new type of flame stability diagram.

The ballistic range has long been employed in a variety of engineering fields such as high-velocity impact engineering, projectile aerodynamics, creation of new materials, etc, since it can create an extremely high-pressure state in very short time. Of many different types of ballistic ranges developed to date, two-stage light gas gun is being employed most extensively. In the present study, a theoretical work has been made to develop a new type of ballistic range which can easily simulate a flying projectile. The present ballistic range consists of high-pressure tube, piston, pump tube, shock tube and launch tube. The effect of adding a shock tube in between the pump tube and launch tube is investigated. This improvement is identified as the reduction in pressures in the high pressure tube and pump tube while maintaining the projectile velocity. Equations of motions of piston and projectile are solved using Runge-Kutta methods. Dependence of projectile velocity on various design factors such as high pressure tube pressure, piston mass, projectile mass, area ratio of pump tube to launch tube and type of driver gas in the pump tube are also analyzed. Effect of various gas combinations is also investigated. Calculations show that projectile velocities of the order 8 km/sec could be achieved with the present ballistic range.

The presence of non-condensable gases as an additional thermal resistance inside a refrigerating circuit has been found for a general refrigerator, The effect of non-condensable gases was varied by controlling the injection amount of dry air into the refrigerating circuit to increase a thermal resistance. Energy consumption tests for the refrigerator were conducted under the various amounts of non-condensable gases. The tested refrigerating circuit was the household refrigerator. As the molar fraction of non-condensable gases was increased from 0% to 1.46%, the amount of energy consumption was found to increase up to 25%. The increase of the amount of non-condensable gases in refrigerating circuit was found to result in increasing the condensation temperature at the condenser and decreasing the evaporation temperature at the evaporator, which were presumably caused by the low specific heat and increased partial pressure of non-condensable gas.

The hermetic rotary compressor is one of the most important components of an air conditioning system since it has a great effect on both the performance and the noise and vibration of the system. Noise and vibration occurs due to gas pulsation during the compression process and to unbalanced dynamic force. In order to reduce noise and vibration, it is necessary to identify their sources and transmission path and effectively control them. Many approaches have been tried in order to identify the noise transmission path of a compressor. However, identification has proven to be difficult since the characteristics of compressor noise are complicated due to the interaction of the compressor parts and gas pulsation. In this study, the statistical energy analysis has been used to trace the energy flow in the compressor and to identify the transmission paths from the noise source to the exterior sound field.

This paper presents a robotic agent design and application in the ubiquitous intelligent space. We set up an experimental environment with Bluetooth host, Bluetooth client, furniture and home appliance, and robotic agents. First, the agents basically performed patrol guard to detect unexpected penetration, and to keep home safely from gas-leakage, electric leakage, and so on. They were out to patrol fur a robbery while navigating in a living room and a private room. In this task, we used an area-based action making and a hexagon-based Q-learning to control the agents. Second, the agents communicate with Bluetooth host device to access and control a home appliance. The Bluetooth host offers a manual control to person by inquiring a client robot when one would like to check some place especially. In this exercise, we organize asynchronous connection less (ACL) between the host and the client robots and control the robot maneuver by Bluetooth host controller interface (HCI).

연료가스의 사용이 늘어나고 고압가스를 사용하는 공정이 날로 대형화$\cdot$복잡화됨에 따라 가스사고도 대형화되는 둥 이를 적절하게 관리할 필요성이 증대되고 있다. '95${\~}$'98년 동안 발생했던 사고를 체계적으로 분류$\cdot$분석하여서 사고 발생에 영향을 미치는 주된 요인을 찾아내었다. 그 결과 사고감소분야에 대해서는 기존의 사고관리정책을 견지하도록 하며 사고가 소폭 감소하거나 증가하는 분야에 대해서는 감소 대책을 제시하였다. '95${\~}$'98년 가스사고는 총 2,027건이며 띨6년 이후 연평균 $12\%$ 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 가스종류별로는 LPG(Liquefied petroleum gas), 도시가스 등 연료가스사고가 $96\%$로서 대부분이며 사용처별로는 주택, 요식업소 등 사용시설에서 주로 사고가 발생했다. 원인별로는 가스의 종류 및 시설에 따라 그 특징이 다르나 시설미비, 제품불량, 및 사용자 취급부주의에 의한 사고가 대부분을 차지하였다. 연료가스에 의한 고의사고는 311건으로 전체가스사고 중 $15\%$를 차지하며 연평균 $38\%$ 증가하는 추세이나 그 발생 매커니즘이 다르므로 향후 좀더 체계적인 분석을 할 필요가 있으며 이번 분석에서 제외하였다.

This paper presents soft switching zero voltage switching high frequency inverter for rare gas fluorescent lamp using dielectric-barrier discharge phenomenon. The simple high-frequency inverter can completely achieve stable zero voltage soft switching (ZVS) commutation for wide its output power regulation ranges and load variations under its constant high frequency pulse density modulation (PDM) scheme. Its transient and steady state operating principle is originally described and discussed for a constant high-frequency PDM control strategy under a stable ZVS operation commutation, together with its output effective power regulation characteristics-based on the high frequency PDM strategy. The experimental operating performances of this high frequency Inverter are illustrated as compared with computer simulation results and experimental ones. Its light dimming characteristics due to power regulation scheme are evaluated and discussed on the basis of simulation and experimental results. The feasible effectiveness of this high frequency inverter appliance implemented here is proven from the practical point of view.
