Welding processes cause undesirable problems, such as residual stresses and deformations due to the thermal loads imposed by local heating, melting, and cooling processes. This paper presents a computational modeling technique to simulate the Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) process, emphasizing the effect of the melting bead on the residual stress distribution. Both a three-bar analogy and a three-dimensional thermo-mechanical finite element analysis are carried out in order to explain the effect. Element (de)activation, enthalpy, and adjustment of the reference temperature of thermal strain are considered with respect to the effect of the weld filler metal added to the base metal during a thermo-elastic-plastic analysis. Stress distributions obtained by the present study are compared with measured values and available data from other studies. The effect of the melting bead on the residual stress distribution is discussed and demonstrated.

HANARO, an open-tank-in-pool type research reactor of 30 MWth power in Korea, has been operating normally since its initial criticality in February, 1995. For the last about ten years, A cooling tower of a secondary cooling system has been operated normally in HANARO. Last year, the cooling tower has been overhauled for preservative maintenance including fills, eliminators, wood support, water distribution system, motors, driving shafts, gear reducers, basements, blades and etc. This paper describes the results of the overhaul. As results, it is confirmed that the cooling tower maintains a good operability through a filed test. And a cooling capability will be tested when a wet bulb temperature is maintained about 28 $^{\circ}C$ in summer and the reactor is operated with the full power.

The heat in Czochralski method is transfered by all transport mechanisms such as convection, conduction and radiation and convection is caused by the temperature difference in the molden pool, the rotations of crystal or crucible and the difference of surface tension. This study delvelops the simulation model of Czochralski growth by using the finite difference method with fixed grids combined with new latent heat treatment model. The radiative heat transfer occured in the surfce of the system is treated by calculating the view factors among surface elements. The model shows that the flow is turbulent, therefore, turbulent modeling must be used to simulate the transport phenomena in the real system applied to 8" Si single crystal growth process. The effects of a cusp magnetic field imposed on the Czochralski silicon melt are studied by numerical analysis. The cusp magnetic field reduces the natural and forced convection due to the rotation of crystal and crucible very effectively. It is shown that the oxygen concentration distribution on the melt/crystal interface is sensitively controlled by the change of the magnetic field intensity. This provides an interesting way to tune the desired O concentration in the crystal during the crystal growing.

The objective of this study is to propose an experimental calibration facility in which a heat flux sensor can be calibrated under conductive condition by using helium gas. The heat flux calibration facility was designed, simulated and manufactured for use in a high heat transfer condition. It delivers heat fluxes up to a maximum of 35 KW $m^{-2}$. A copper block heated electrically with 3.5 KW power is designed to produce uniform temperature up to 600 K across its face. High heat fluxes are provided between hot plate and cold plate by 1 mm height helium filled gap. A cold plate is maintained around 300 K through pool boiling using a refrigerant and water-cooled heat exchanger. A simulation was conducted to verify the design of the main test section. To verify the performance of calibration facility, a heat flux sensor was examined. The measured heat fluxes were compared to the calculated one.

Steam was vertically discharged into water through mini nozzles of various diameters (d=0.115, 0.520, 1.55mm). The condensation was observed and categorized into several types of condensation regimes for each of the nozzles. Compared with the regimes in the previous researches, the regimes of 'internal necking with attached bubble' and 'internal chug with detached bubble' were newly observed. Depending on a nozzle, some regimes expanded, shrank, or moved in the regime map. For the nozzle of 1.55mm, the regime map was similar to Chan and Lee (1982) except that the regime of 'internal chug' was not observed. For the nozzle of 0.115mm, the regime of 'internal chug' appeared even at high pool temperature.

A computer program has been developed for analyzing the two-dimensional unsteady conservation equations for transport phenomena in the ool region of direct rolling with semi-solid metal in order to describe the velocity and temperature, and the solidification process of the semi-solid metal. The energy equations of cooling roll is solved simultaneously with semi-solid metal in order consider heat transfer through the cooling roll. The FDM(finite difference method) and FEM(finite element method) are used in region of pool and roll, respsctively, to reduce computing time and to improve accuracy of calculation. In the present study, influence of solid fraction and casting speed are investigated in a point of view of strip formability with semi-solid metal.

A preliminary and parametric sensitivity study on recriticality risk of fast reactor cores after a hypothetical total core meltdown accident was performed. Only neutronic aspects of the accident were considered, independent of the accident scenario, and efforts were made to estimate the quantity of molten fuel which must be ejected out of the core to assure a sub-critical state after the accident. Two types of parameters were examined : characteristic parameters of molten core such as geometry, molten pool type (homogenized or stratified), fuel temperature, environment, and relative parameters to normal core such as core size(small or large), and fuel type (oxide, nitride, metal). The first type of parameters was found to intervene more directly in the recriticality risk than the second type of parameters.

Reflood model in RELAP5/MOD3.1 are modified to improve the unrealistic prediction results of the model. In the new method, the modified Zuber pool boiling critical heat flux (CHF) correlation is adopted. The reflood drop size is characterized by the use of We=1.5 and the minimum drop size of 0.0007 m for $p^{*}\;{\leq}\;0.025$. To describe the wall to vapor heat transfer at low pressure and low flow condition, the Webb-Chen correlation is utilized . The suggested method has been verified through the simulations of the Lehigh University rod bundle reflood tests. Through sensitivity study it is shown that the effect of drag coefficients is dominant in the reflood model. It is proved that the present modifications result in much more improved quench behavior and accurate wan and vapor temperature predictions.

탄소섬유강화플라스틱(CFRP:Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic)용기의 외부에 화재가 발생할 경우 함침된 수지(Resin)가 탄화되면서 자체 강도가 약화되고 충전된 가스가 외부 온도 상승에 따라 압력 상승이 발생하여 용기의 폭발로 이어지는 사고가 발생할 개연성이 높다. 화염 노출조건에서 복합재료 용기의 폭발을 방지하기 위하여 용기용 밸브에 내장된 온도감응식 압력안전장치(TPRD:Thermally activated Pressure Relief Device) 작동 성능을 검증하기 위한 방법으로 화염실험(Bonfire test)를 실시하고 있으나, 개방 공간에서 실시되는 이 실험은 표면 온도 변화가 매우 크게 발생하여 실험에 대한 재현성(Reproducibility)에 의문이 제기되고 있다. 따라서, 표면 온도를 일정하게 유지하기 위한 실험 방법의 개선이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 경유+heptane을 이용한 전체 화염에 노출되는 경우와, 천연가스를 이용한 단일화염에 노출되는 경우의 실험 결과 비교를 통하여 화염 노출 표면 온도를 일정하게 유지하기 위한 가열 방법의 타당성을 검토하였다. 또한, 복합재료 라이너(Liner)의 온도 변화 비교를 통하여 집중화염 노출 조건에서 열전달 특성을 알아보았다.

Pool Boiling heat transfer from controlled arrays of artificial nucleation sites was studied experimentally. Distilled water were boiled from artificial sites of uniform size, shape and spacing, drilled in superfinished copper horizontal surfaces at site density of 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100 per $2.25cm^2$. The results confirm the boiling heat transfer from artificial sites can be improved by increasing the site density N/A or temperature difference ${\Delta}T$ or both. Following experimental correlation were developed for predicting the heat transfer rate from the heating surface which has artificial sites. $$q/A = C(T_s - T_{sat})^{1.811}(N/A)^{0.41}$$
