Production of iodine-131 by neutron activation of tellurium in tellurium dioxide ($TeO_2$) material requires a target that meets the safety requirements. In a radiopharmaceutical production unit, a new lid for a can was designed, which permits tight sealing of the target by using tungsten inert gaswelding. The leakage rate of all prepared targets was assessed using a helium mass spectrometer. The accepted leakage rate is ${\leq}10^{-4}mbr.L/s$, according to the approved safety report related to iodine-131 production in the TRIGA Mark II research reactor (TRIGA: Training, Research, Isotopes, General Atomics). To confirm the resistance of the new design to the irradiation conditions in the TRIGA Mark II research reactor's central thimble, a study of heat effect on the sealed targets for 7 hours in an oven was conducted and the leakage rates were evaluated. The results show that the tightness of the targets is ensured up to $600^{\circ}C$ with the appearance of deformations on lids beyond $450^{\circ}C$. The study of heat transfer through the target was conducted by adopting a one-dimensional approximation, under consideration of the three transfer modes-convection, conduction, and radiation. The quantities of heat generated by gamma and neutron heating were calculated by a validated computational model for the neutronic simulation of the TRIGA Mark II research reactor using the Monte Carlo N-Particle transport code. Using the heat transfer equations according to the three modes of heat transfer, the thermal study of I-131 production by irradiation of the target in the central thimble showed that the temperatures of materials do not exceed the corresponding melting points. To validate this new design, several targets have been irradiated in the central thimble according to a preplanned irradiation program, going from4 hours of irradiation at a power level of 0.5MWup to 35 hours (7 h/d for 5 days a week) at 1.5MW. The results showthat the irradiated targets are tight because no iodine-131 was released in the atmosphere of the reactor building and in the reactor cooling water of the primary circuit.

본 연구는 9% 니켈강재식 LNG 저장탱크용 통합제어안전관리시스템을 개발하고자 한다. 새로운 통합제어안전관리 시스템은 기존의 측정 및 제어시스템에 비해 압력, 변위, 하중을 측정할 수 있는 장치를 추가하였다. 또한, 측정된 데이터는 새로운 제어장치와 안전관리 시스템에 의해 통합되고 분석하는 프로세스를 동시적으로 진행하는 것이다. 초대형 완전밀폐식 LNG 저장탱크의 안전성과 효율성을 증가시키기 위해 통합제어안전관리시스템은 압력계이지를 추가하고, 내부탱크의 외측벽과 스티프너, 톱거더의 용접지역, 코너 프로텍션 탱크의 외측벽에 새로운 변위센서/압력센서를 설치하였다. 변위센서와 하중센서는 내부탱크와 코너 프로텍션 탱크의 9% 니켈강재 구조물에 대한 파손징후를 제공할 수 있고, 내부탱크로부터 누설되는 LNG를 감시할 수 있다. 기존의 누설센서는 내부탱크와 코너 프로텍션 사이의 단열지역에 설치한 누설감지기에 의해 경고신호가 접수될 때까지도 9% 니켈강재 탱크의 파괴에 대한 적절한 정보를 제공하지 못한다는데 문제가 있다. 따라서, 새로운 통합제어안전관리시스템은 온도, 압력, 변위, 하중, LNG의 밀도 데이터를 수집하고 분석하기 위한 것으로, 탱크시스템의 안전성과 내부탱크의 누설을 제어하기 위한 시스템이다. 또한, 디지털 데이터는 9% 니켈강재로 제작한 탱크의 안전성에 관련된 변위와 하중, LNG의 액위와 밀도, 쿨다운 공정, 누설, 압력 등을 제어하기 위해 측정한다.

본 연구에서는 기존 멤브레인식 LNG 저장탱크의 측정장치와 안전장치에 대한 고찰과 분석을 통해 초대형 멤브레인 식 LNG 저장탱크에 적합한 새로운 통합제어안전관리시스템 연구를 수행하고자 한다. 통합제어안전관리시스템은 기존에 단수로 설치한 압력계를 추가하고, 기존의 LNG 저장탱크에는 없는 변위센서와 하중센서를 내부탱크와 예응력 콘크리트 구조물 사이를 관통하는 강재앵커에 새로이 설치함으로써 초대형 LNG 저장탱크의 안전성과 효율성을 향상시키는 역할을 담당할 것으로 예상된다. 변위센서와 하중센서는 멤브레인 패널의 파손여부, 내부탱크로부터 발생된 LNG 누설의 단서를 제공하게 될 것이다. 기존의 누설센서는 내부탱크 뒤편의 보냉재 공간에 설치한 온도센서에 의해 LNG 누설이라는 신호를 보낼 때까지도 멤브레인 패널의 손상에 관련된 적절한 정보를 제공하지 못할 수 있다. 결국 새로운 통합제어안전관리시스템은 온도, 압력, 변위량, 하중, LNG의 밀도 데이터를 수집하고 분석하기 위한 것으로, 탱크시스템의 안전성과 내부탱크의 누설을 제어하기 위한 시스템이다. 또한, 디지털 데이터는 멤브레인 패널의 안전성에 관련된 변위량과 하중, LNG의 액위와 밀도, 쿨다운 공정, 누설, 압력 등을 제어하기 위해 측정된다.

As a clean fuel, LNG or LPG is widely used in large restaurants or plants instead of coal. These fuels are easy to use and cheap. However, they are inflammable very much and easily exploded at the worst. So there are many laws and regulations legislated for the handling and usage of the gas facilities. Nevertheless, very harsh explosions occurred in several domestic or foreign places. In this paper a gas detection and alarm system was developed for large facilities. A new concept for connecting many gas detectors was proposed and based upon that a system including hardware and software have been developed and tested. Although up to 16 gas detectors apart 1 km from main controller can be connected currently, this system can be easily expanded for more detectors because each gas detector receiver communicates with main controller using industrial standard RS-485 multi drop technique. Furthermore several additive functions was included for the installation and maintenance convenience.

국내에서 고층건물의 제연시스템으로 급기가압 제연시스템이 일반적으로 사용되고 있는데, 기존의 급기가압 제연시스템의 설계방안과 같이 한개의 급기풍도를 통해 누설량과 보충량이 동시에 공급될 경우에는 부속실과 옥내간에 형성되는 차압이 설계기준에 미달하거나 과압이 될 가능성이 매우 높아져서 급기가압 제연시스템의 설치목적을 달성하지 못할 수 있다. 이에 대한 개선방안으로 본 연구에서는 누설량의 공급과 보충량의 공급을 각기 다른 유로를 통해 수행하는 방안 및 장치구성을 제시함으로서 고층건물에서 화재 발생시 안전한 피난환경을 제공하고자 한다.

Today, the sciences in medical and nursing fields are becoming progressively more dependent on electrical apparatus for the preservation of life of hospitalized patients. Therefore, it is required more safety medical power distribution system in order to protect patients and physicians more securely from unexpected leakage of current. Especially for the medically used rooms which use life sustaining equipment, power should be provided as supplying continuously without interrupting with lowest leakage current. This thesis proposed the reason why Isolation Power System is safety through the circuit analysis and applications.

According to building law, there are only regulations on the fire prevention compartments that can perform the function of partial smoke compartment, but the building law management of the smoke compartment for effective smoke diffusion prevention and control is not possible. The lack of control on the smoke compartment such as leakage rate on the penetrating part, and the lack of leakage rate in the design of smoke control of fire safety law resulted in the absence of fundamental safety technology. Therefore, this study seeks to find solutions to domestic problems after reviewing relevant domestic laws and regulations.

The objective of this study was to conduct a radiation shielding analysis for the facility equipped with radiation generator. The analysis was carried out in two aspects. First, from the aspect of the effect caused by primary and leakage radiation. Second, effect of scattered radiation was evaluated by applying a simple calculation method based on a scattering rate concept since effect of scattered radiation is significantly important at maze entrance of the radiation facility. The calculated results obtained using the simple method were compared to the results calculated using Geant4 code and the measured values. The results calculated by the suggested method indicate that slight error exists in a radiation shielding analysis done at the maze entrance comparing to other two results, while the results evaluated at the outside of the maze entrance door are relatively consistent with other values.

In this study, the experiment was conducted on a fire door(W × H = 0.98 m × 2.19 m) installed on the vestibule. The effective leakage area for each opening angles and closing forces derived from the impulse-momentum equation was compared and analyzed with the experimental results. As a result of the experiment, the major factors affecting the door closing forces were the pressure difference and the area of the door. The difference of door closing forces between measured and calculated values by the impulse-momentum equation showed a deviation of less than ±15% at the opening angles of 5°to 10°. At the door opening angle of 2.5°, the dynamic pressure was much higher than the measured static pressure, and this pressure difference is estimated to be air resistance acting to prevent the door from being completely closed.

The registration rate of eco-friendly vehicles, such as hydrogen vehicles, is increasing rapidly, however, few first responders have experienced related accidents. Accident scenarios at hydrogen refueling stations and hydrogen vehicles on a road were investigated, and the relative importance of each scenario was analyzed using AHP analysis. Leakage, jet flame, and explosion that occurred inside and outside the hydrogen refueling station were reviewed, and the hydrogen gas explosion in the compartment showed the highest importance value. In case of the hydrogen vehicle, traffic accident statistics and actual accidents were used. It was analyzed that the hydrogen vessel explosion on the road due to the failure of TPRD and the leakage in the underground parking area were difficult to respond. The developed accident scenarios are expected to be used for first responder training.
