This paper describes the test results of plant minimum stable load (Pmin) for Ilijan Power Plant. The test was conducted on May 13 through 14, 2015 to investigate the plant operating and equipment condition in accordance with "Ilijan Plant Performance Test Procedure on Plant Minimum Stable Load" [1]. This paper also contains the assessment of the impact of Pmin to plant operating parameters and possible technical operating issues when operating at lower loads and to recommend the safe minimum load operation of Ilijan per block. In addition, this paper describes the performance calculation results of efficiency and heat rate depending on the load level.

The purpose of this study was to determine the virulence structure of oat powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis f. sp. avenae, Bga) populations in Poland collected in 2014 and 2015. Powdery mildew isolates were collected from 18 locations in Poland. In total, nine lines and cultivars of oat, with different mildew resistance genes, were used to assess virulence of 180 isolates. The results showed that a significant proportion of the Bga isolates found in Poland were virulent to differentials with Pm1, Pm3, Pm6, and Pm3 + Pm8 genes. In contrast Pm4, Pm5, Pm2, and Pm7 genes were classified as resistant to all pathogen isolates used in the experiment. Based on obtained results we can state that there are differences in virulence pattern and diversity parameters between sites and years, but clear trends are not deducible.

Newly developed continuous indentation technique has made nondestructive assessment of tensile properties possible. The present study was undertaken to determine new parameters for indicating time-dependent material degradation of petro-chemical plant. Continuous indentation tests were performed for Cr-Ni steel and Cr-Mo steel which are widely used as facilities of petro-chemical plant. From the results, it was found that yield strength and tensile strength cannot be used as general degradation parameters because the changes in the strengths with aging time didn't show any tendency. On the other hand, work hardening exponent and yield ratio showed consistent tendency with increasing aging time. Therefore, nam attention of this work was paid on them as new degradation parameters, and the in-field applicability of the parameters was evaluated and discussed.

Recently, the hydrological model Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) has been applied in many watersheds in South Korea. This study estimated parameters in SWAT for calibrating streamflow in long-term drought periods. Therefore, we focused on the continuous severe drought periods 2014~2015, and understand the model calibrated parameters. The SWAT was applied to a $366.5km^2$ Gongdo watershed by using 14 years (2002~2015) daily observed streamflow (Q) including two years extreme drought period of 2014~2015. The 9 parameters of CN2, CANMX, ESCO, SOL_K, SLSOIL, LAT_TIME, GW_DELAY, GWQMN, ALPHA_BF were selected for model calibration. The SWAT result by focusing on 5 normal years (2002~2006) calibration showed the 14 years average Nash-Sutcliffe model efficiency (NSE) for Q and 1/Q with 0.78 and 0.58 respectively. On the other hand, the 14 years average NSEs of Q and 1/Q by focusing on 2 drought years (2014~2015) calibration were 0.86 and 0.76 respectively. Thus, we could infer that the SWAT calibration trial by focusing on drought periods data can be a good approach to calibrate both high flow and low flow by controlling the 9 drought affected parameters.

For the evaluation of safety margin of a nuclear power plant using a conservative methodology, the influence of applied assumptions such as initial conditions and boundary conditions needs to be assessed deliberately. Usually, a combination of the most conservative initial conditions is determined, and the safety margin for the transient is evaluated through the analysis for this conservative conditions. In existing conservative methodologies, a most-conservative condition is searched through the analyses for the maximum, minimum, and nominal values of the major parameters. In the present study, we investigates a new approach which can be applied to choose a most-conservative initial condition effectively when a best-estimate computer code and a conservative evaluation methodology are utilized for the evaluation of safety margin of transients. By constituting the band of various initial conditions using the random sampling of input parameters, the sensitivity study for various parameters are performed systematically. A method of sampling the value of control or operation parameters for a certain range is adopted by use of MOSAIQUE program, which enables to minimize the efforts for achieving the steady-state for various different conditions. A representative control parameter is identified, which governs the reactor coolant flow rate, pressurizer pressure, pressurizer level, and steam generator level, respectively. It is shown that an appropriate distribution of input parameter is obtained by adjusting the range and distribution of the control parameter.

Disease incidence (DI), pre-emergence damping-off (PDO), days until the first symptom appeared (DUS), disease progress curve (DPC), and area under disease progress curve (AUDPC) were investigated in vivo after sowing ginseng seeds in each of 37 ginseng-cultivated soils which were sampled from 4 regions in Korea. Non linear fitting parameters, A, B, K and M, were estimated from the Richards' function, one of the disease progress models, by using the DI at each day from the bioassay. Inter- and intra-relationships between disease variables and stand-missing rate (SMR) in fields were investigated by using the simple correlation analysis. Disease variables of the root rot were divided into two groups: variables related to disease incidence, e.g., DI, AUDPC and A parameter, and variables related to disease progress, e.g., B, K and M parameters. DI, AUDPC, and DUS had significant correlations with SMR in ginseng fields, and then it showed that the disease development in vivo corresponded with that in fields. Soil samples could be separated into 3 and 4 groups, respectively, on the basis of the principal component 1 (PC1) and the principal component 2 (PC2), which were derived from the principal component analysis (PCA) of Richards' parameters, A, B, K and M. PC1 accounted for B, K and M parameters, and PC2 accounted for A parameter.

한국에 생육하고 있는 잣나무아속 5종의 화분을 광학현미경 관찰로 화분립의 8가지 parameters를 측정하고 이를 수량화하였다. 잣나무아속 화분 형태학적 parameters간 분산분석을 실시한 결과 1％ 수준에서 고도의 유의성이 인정되었다. 화분 형태의 parameters를 토대로 판변분석을 실시한 결과 잣나무아속 평균 분류율은 68.8％로 나타났으며, 최고치는 눈잣나무로 72.8％, 최소치는 잣나무로 62.2％ 이었다. 잣나무아속 화분형태학적 parameters에 의한 유사도를 조사한 결과 잣나무와 눈잣나무가 가장 유사하였고, 눈잣나무와 백송의 유사도가 가장 먼 것으로 나타났다.

Submerged bodies moving underwater behave differently based on their type and assigned mission. This paper describes the dynamic characteristics, including the stability, turning ability, and operational ability, of submerged bodies in relation to design parameters such as the tail cone angle, shape of the control plate, and length of the parallel middle body. A submerged body operated in other countries is adopted as a reference for the dynamic characteristics, its principal dimensions and the shape of the bare hull and appendages are used for comparison. This paper suggests a few candidate hull forms based on changes in the typical design parameters. Finally, the dynamic characteristics for these candidate hull forms are defined.

초소형 바이너리 발전 플랜트는 열원과 냉각원 사이의 저온도차 열에너지를 이용하여 열에너지를 전력으로 변환한다. 실제 발전환경에서 플랜트의 특성치는 환경 조건이나 관련 장비의 부식과 같은 부정적인 영향으로 인해 변동하고, 플랜트 특성치의 변동은 PID 파라미터가 고정된 종래의 PID 제어시스템에서 불안정한 터빈 출력으로 이어진다. 본 논문에서는 플랜트의 특성치 변동에 따라 PID 파라미터를 적응적으로 조정하는 신경망 기반의 Neuro PID 제어시스템을 제안한다. 초소형 바이너리 발전 플랜트의 동작점 근방에서 동특성을 나타내는 이산시간 전달함수 모델을 도출하고, 제안된 제어시스템의 설계 전략을 기술한다. 제안된 Neuro PID 제어시스템을 종래의 PID 제어시스템과 비교하고, 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 그 유효성을 보인다.
