Recently, there has been growing interest in the oxyfuel combustion cycle since it enables high-purity CO2 capture with high efficiency. However, the oxyfuel combustion cycle has some important issues regarding to its performance such as the requirement of water recirculation to decrease a turbine inlet temperature and proper combustion pressure to enhance cycle efficiency. The purpose of the present study is to analyze performance characteristics of the oxyfuel combustion cycle with different turbine inlet temperatures and combustion pressures. It is expected that the turbine inlet temperature improves cycle efficiency, on the other hand, the combustion pressure has specific value to display highest cycle efficiency.

The direct carbon fuel cell (DCFC) has attracted researcher's attention recently, due to its high conversion efficiency and its abundant fuel, carbon. A DCFC mathematical model has developed in two-dimensional, lab-scale, and considers Boudouard reaction and carbon monoxide (CO) oxidation. The model simulates the CO production by Boudouard reaction and additional electron production by CO oxidation. The Boudouard equilibrium strongly depends on operating temperature and affects the amount of produced CO and consequentially affects the overall fuel cell performance. Two different operating temperatures (973 K, 1023 K) has been calculated to discover the CO production by Boudouard reaction and overall fuel cell performance. Moreover, anode thickness of the cell has been considered to find out the influence of the Boudouard reaction zone in fuel cell performance. It was found that in high temperature operating DCFC modeling, the Boudouard reaction cannot be neglected and has a vital role in the overall fuel cell performance.

The hot climatic conditions prevailing particularly in summer are not conducive to rear these high yielding bivoltine hybrids throughout the year, In order to select efficiently the breeds with high temperature tolerance, it is very important to analyze critically the impact of high temperature on many silk yielding attributes of silkworm races. Keeping the above in view, the present study was undertaken to determine the effect of high temperature $(36 {\pm} 1^{\circ}C)$ and high humidity $(80 {\pm} 5% Relative Humidity)$ on the rearing performance of pure races, foundation crosses, single hybrids and double hybrids of bivoltine silkworm, Bombyx mori L. The robust bivoltine breeds, CSR18, CSR19, 8HT and 5HT, eight foundation crosses, eight single hybrids and eight double hybrids involving these breeds were chosen as materials in this study.

PURPOSES : The performance properties (indirect tensile strength, rutting resistance, and resilient modulus) of recycled aged CRM mixtures and their correlation with Superpave binder properties (viscosity, high failure temperature, $G^*sin{\delta}$, and stiffness) were investigated. METHODS: A series of Superpave binder tests was performed by using a rotational viscometer, DSR, and BBR to evaluate the performance properties. In addition, the CRM mixes were artificially aged through accelerated aging processes, and their properties were evaluated. The correlation between the properties of recycled aged CRM binders and the engineering properties of recycled aged CRM mixtures was experimentally determined. RESULTS : The rut depth values decreased and the ITS values increased with increasing high failure temperature. In general, the resilient modulus properties seemed to be poorly correlated with the high-temperature values, regardless of the aggregate source. CONCLUSIONS: The recycled aged CRM binders and mixtures can lead to satisfactory performance, and the properties of these binders are strongly correlated with the engineering properties of the mixtures.

Geothermal energy is used in various forms, such as power generation, direct use, and geothermal heat pumps. High temperature geothermal energy sources have been used for power generation for more than a century. Recent technical advances in power generation equipments make relatively low temperature geothermal energy to be available for power generation. In these applications, lower temperature geothermal energy source makes smaller difference between condensing water temperature and it. Various condensing water temperatures were investigated in analyzing its influence on power generation performance. Condensing water temperature of organic Rankine cycle imposed greater influence on power generation and its performance in lower temperature geothermal power generation.

The densified mixture design algorithm (DMDA) was employed to manufacture high-performance lightweight concrete (LWAC) using silt dredged from reservoirs in southern Taiwan. Dredged silt undergoing hydration and high-temperature sintering was made into a lightweight aggregate for concrete mixing. The workability and durability of the resulting concrete were examined. The LWAC made from dredged silt had high flowability, which implies good workability. Additionally, the LWAC also had good compressive strength and anti-corrosion properties, high surface electrical resistivity and ultrasonic pulse velocity as well as low chloride penetration, all of which are indicators of good durability.

Operating characteristics of a triple pressure reheat HRSG are analyzed using a commercial software package (Gate Cycle by GE Enter Software). The calculation routine determines all the design parameters including configuration and area of each heat exchanger. The off-design calculation part has the capability of simulating the effect of any operating parameters such as power load, process requirements, and operating mode, etc., on the transient performance of the plant. The arrangement of high-temperature and intermediate-temperature components of the HRSG is changed, and its effect on the steam turbine performance and HRSG characteristics is examined. It is shown that there could be a significant difference in HRSG sizes even though thermal performance is not in great deviation. From the viewpoint of both economics and steam turbine performance, it should be carefully reviewed whether the optimum design point could exist. Off-design performance could be one of the main factors in arranging components of the HRSG because power plants operate at various off-design conditions such as ambient temperature and gas turbine load, etc. It is shown that different heat exchanger configurations lead to different performances with ambient temperature, even though they have almost the same performances at design points.

기존의 한국형 기준 처분시스템의 처분 효율을 높인 향상된 한국형 기준 처분시스템(Improved Korean Reference Disposal System, KRS⁺)의 열-수리-역학적 복합거동 성능평가를 위해 TOUGH2-MP/FLAC3D를 이용한 수치모델링 연구가 수행되었다. 사용후핵연료 처분 이후 방사성 붕괴열에 의해 처분시스템의 온도가 상승하고, 방사성 붕괴열이 빠르게 감소함에 따라 온도가 감소하여 최대 온도가 설계기준 온도인 100℃를 넘지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 완충재의 초기 포화도는 온도 상승으로 인한 공극수의 증발로 인해 감소하였다가 주변 암반으로부터 지하수가 유입되어 처분 약 250년 후 포화 상태에 이르렀다. 암반에서는 완충재와 암반의 흡입력의 차이로 인해 암반에서 완충재로 지하수가 유입되어 처분 직후 포화도가 감소하다가 이후 원계 암반으로부터 지하수가 유입되어 포화 상태에 도달했다. 처분시스템 내 열응력과 팽윤압 발생에 의한 주변 암반의 파괴 가능성을 평가하고자 모어-쿨롱 파괴기준식과 스폴링 강도를 사용하였다. KRS⁺ 처분시스템의 처분공의 간격을 감소시키면서 처분시스템의 열적 거동 변화를 확인하였는데, 처분공 간격이 5.5 m 이하에서는 완충재의 설계 기준 온도를 초과하게 된다. 다만, 벤토나이트 완충재 부피의 56.1%의 온도는 90℃ 이하로 유지되었다. 본 연구에서 사용한 수치해석 기법은 향후 응력 모델, 지온 경사 및 입력 물성을 변화시킨 다양한 조건에서의 처분시스템의 THM 복합거동 성능평가에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This research plans to investigate the simultaneous impact of bamboo fibers (BF) and steel fibers (SF) on the mechanical and spalling characteristics of ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) exposed to high temperatures (HT). To this aim, 25 mixtures were made and assessed. BF was added at five contents of 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10 kg/m³. Additionally, SF was used at five weight contents: 0%, 1%, 2%, 3% and 4%. Specimens were exposed to temperatures ranging between 25℃ and 800℃. Thus, com-pressive, tensile, and flexural strengths, elastic moduli, mass loss, and permeability were measured. Experiments revealed that the simultaneous use of low BF and SF contents could totally prevent spalling of UHPC, but the use of either SF or BF alone could not prevent spalling at high levels of fibers. Besides, the synergetic positive impact of BF and SF on the spalling resistance of UHPC was by reason of the rise of BF' permeability and the bridging role of SF at HT. Moreover, it was concluded that the use of SF could moderate the adverse influence of BF on the compressive resistance of UHPC.
