  • 국내 수리지질환경에 적합한 다양한 방법론적 접근을 통해 균열암반에서의 지하수 유동 특성을 해석하기 위하여 금산군 남이면 남이자연휴양림 내 연구지역에서 시험시추공 5개(BH-1, -2, -3, -4, -5)를 대상으로 연구를 수행하였다. 연구지역의 균열발달 특성을 파악하기 위한 기초조사로서 광역 선구조선 분포를 분석한 결과 북서-남동 방향의 연장 성이 좋은 구조선들이 우세하게 분포하는데, 이 영향으로 남북방향으로 배열된 시추공들 사이에 파쇄대의 발달과 연 결성이 좋다. 현장 지질조사, 시추코아 로깅, 물리검층, 전기비저항 토모그래피, 열추적자시험, 유향 유속검층을 통해 각 시추공에 대한 파쇄대 특성 및 시추공 간의 투수성과 상호 연결성을 해석하였다. 시추공 간의 파쇄대 연결성음 분석한 결과 주입정인 BH-1 호공과 BH-2, BH-3은 연결성이 매우 나쁜 반면에 BH-1, BH-4, BH-5 호공은 연결성 이 매우 좋다. 특히, BH-1 호공과 BH-5 호공의 수리적 연결성을 파악하기 위하여 BH-1에서 양수하고 BH-5에서 측정한 경우 심도 12 m 지점에서 강한 지하수의 유출이 있으며 이 외의 지점에서는 부분적인 지하수의 유출업이 있다. 주된 지하수 유입은 심도 65 m와 70 m 지점에서 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 반면에 BH-5에서 양수하고 BH-1에서 측정한 경우에는 심도 17 m 지점에서 시추공으로부터 강하게 지하수의 유출이 발생하고 있음이 확인되었고, 이외에 70 m 지점에서도 유출이 일어나고 있다. 또한 투수성을 가지는 균열대 중 공간 상호 연결성을 가지는 것으로 확인된 것은 BH-1의 경우 15 m, 67 m, 71 m 지점이며, BH-5는 15 m, 17 m, 22 m, 72 m, 83 m 심도의 균열 혹은 균열대에서 BH-1과 상호 연결성이 있다.

  • The system design of the Organic Rankine Cycle(ORC) is greatly influenced by the thermal properties such as the temperature or the thermal capacity of heat source. Typically waste heat, solar energy, geothermal energy, and so on are used as the heat source for the ORC. However, thermal energy supplying from these kinds of heat sources cannot be provided constantly. Hence, an experimental study was conducted to utilize fluctuating thermal energy efficiently. For this experiment, an impulse turbine and supersonic nozzles were applied and the supersonic nozzle was used to increase the velocity at the nozzle exit. In addition, these nozzles were used to adjust the mass flowrate depending on the amount of the supplied thermal energy. The experiment was conducted with maximum three nozzles due to the capacity of thermal energy. The experimented results were compared with the predicted results. The experiment showed that the useful output power could be producted from low-grade thermal energy as well as fluctuating thermal energy.

  • We compared relative importance of thermal conductivity and initial ground temperature in designing borehole heat exchanger network and also we test accuracy of ground temperature estimation in thermal response test using a proven 3-D T-H modeler. The effect of error in estimating ground temperature on calculated total length of borehole heat exchanger was more than 3 times larger than the case of thermal conductivity in maximum 20% error range. Considering 10% of error in estimating thermal conductivity is generally acceptable, we have to define the initial ground temperature within 5% confidence level. Utilizing the mean annual ground surface temperature and the geothermal gradient map compiled so far can be a economic way of estimating ground temperature with some caution. When performing thermal response test for estimating ground temperature as well as measuring thermal conductivity, minimum 100 minutes of ambient circulation is required, which should be even more in case of very cold and hot seasons.

  • Recent developments such as concern over global warming, depletion of fossil fuels and increase in energy demands by the increasing world population has eventually lead to mass production of electricity using renewable sources. Apart from wind and solar, ocean holds tremendous amount of untapped energy in forms such as geothermal vents, tides and waves. The current study looks at generating power using waves and the focus is on the primary energy conversion (first stage conversion) of incoming waves for two different models. Observation of flow characteristics, pressure and the velocity in the augmentation channel as well as the front guide nozzle are presented in the paper. A numerical wave tank was utilized to generate waves of desired properties and later the turbine section was integrated. The augmentation channel consisted of a front nozzle, rear nozzle and an internal fluid region representing the turbine housing. The analysis was performed using the commercial CFD code.

  • Cameroon is a lower middle-income country with a population of 25.87 million inhabitants distributed over a surface area of 475,442 ㎢. Cameroon has very rich potentials in renewable energy resources such as solar energy, wind energy, small hydropower, geothermal energy and biomass. However, renewable energy constitutes less than 0.1% of energy mix of the country. The energy generation mix of Cameroon is dominated by large hydropower and thermal power. Cameroon ratified the Paris Agreement in July 2016 with an ambitious 20% greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction. This study attempts to investigate some renewable energy deployment policy-instruments that could enable the country enhance renewable energy deployment, gain energy independence, fulfill Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) and achieve Sustainable Development Goals. It begins with an analysis of the status of energy sector in Cameroon. It further highlights the importance of renewable energy in mitigating climate change by decarbonizing the energy mix of the country to fulfill NDC and SDGs. Moreover, this study proposes some renewable energy deployment policy-solutions to the government. Solar energy is the most feasible renewable energy source in Cameroon. Feed-in Tariffs (FiT), is the best renewable energy support policy for Cameroon. Finally, this study concludes with some recommendations such as the necessity of building an Energy Storage System as well a renewable energy information and statistics infrastructure.

  • 국내 한랭지역(강원권)의 경우 낮은 연평균 기온으로 인해 도로표면이 자주 결빙된다. 특히 터널의 입출구의 도로면은 지형적 영향으로 그늘이 생기기 때문에 타 도로면에 비해 결빙이 많이 발생하게 된다. 이러한 결빙을 방지하기 위해 염수분사장치, 전열선 설치, 지열이용 등이 주로 사용되고 있다. 하지만 이런 방법들은 환경오염, 많은 공사비, 유지보수비 및 정기적인 점검 등의 문제점들이 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존도로의 결빙을 방지하기 위해 발열체인 CNT를 이용하여 콘크리트 슬래브의 발열효과를 살펴보고 최적의 CNT설치 간격을 결정하였다.

  • Organic Rankine cycle (ORC) has been widely used to convert renewable energy such as solar energy, geothermal energy, or waste energy etc., to electric power. For a small scale output power less than 10 kW, turbo-expander is not widely used than positive displacement expander. However, the turbo-expander has merits that it can operate well at off-design points. Usually, the available thermal energy for a small scale ORC is not supplied continuously. So, the mass flowrate should be adjusted in the expander to maintain the cycle. In this study, nozzles was adopted as stator to control the mass flowrate, and radial-type turbine was used as expander. The turbine operated at partial admission. R245fa was adopted as working fluid, and supersonic nozzle was designed to get the supersonic flow at the nozzle exit. When the inlet operating condition of the working fluid was varied corresponding to the fluctuation of the available thermal energy, optimal operating condition was investigated at off-design due to the variation of mass flowrate.

  • In this study, we developed the 2.5D EM modeling and inversion algorithm for cross-hole source and receiver geometry. Considering the cross-hole environment, we use a VMD (vertical magnetic dipole) as a source and vertical magnetic fields as a measuring data. Developed inversion algorithm is tested for the isolated block model which has a conductive and a resistivity anomaly respectively. For the conductive anomaly, its size and resistivity are inverted well on the inversion results, while for the resistive anomaly, the location of anomalous block is shown on the inverted section, but its values are far from the exact value. Furthermore, artificial conductive anomalies are shown around the resistive anomalous zone. If we consider the inversion artifact shown in the test inversion of restive block, it is almost impossible to image the resistive zone. However, the main target of EM tomography in the engineering problem is conductive target such as fault zone, and contaminated zone etc., EM tomography algorithm can be used for detecting the anomalous zone.

  • This paper presents an analysis on the initial ignoring time of SCW type GHX using Mean Square Error method. Line source method is a useful method for estimating the ground thermal conductivity for the vertical type and SCW type GHX in Korea. The line source method for ground thermal conductivity of geothermal in-site test is the basis of linear approximation between the temperature of a borehole and logarithmic time in a GHX. To apply the line source method to the estimation of SCW type GHX, it is necessary to ignore the initial time of data at the stage of a linear approximation. This paper proposed a new initial ignoring time of SCW type GHX among various initial ignoring time at the time for reaching MSE of $0.02^{\circ}C^2$.
