We proposed a modification of a double cascade scheme to enrich reprocessed uranium. Such a cascade scheme represents a combination of one cascade with "broadening" of the flow and an ordinary three-flow cascade. A calculation and optimization method has been developed for the proposed scheme according to various efficiency criteria. It is shown that the proposed scheme makes it possible to obtain low-enriched uranium of commercial quality using reprocessed uranium of different initial compositions. For example, the enrichment of reprocessed uranium, which had gone through five consequent recycles, was considered. The proposed scheme allowed to enrich it with simultaneous fulfillment of restrictions on isotopes ²³²U, ²³⁴U, and ²³⁶U. Such results indicate the scheme's applicability under conditions of multiple recycling of uranium in reactor fuel. Computational experiments have shown that in the proposed modification, a noticeable saving of natural uranium in the cycle (~18%) can be achieved, provided that the additional consumption of separative work does not exceed 10%, compared with the case of enrichment of natural uranium to obtain LEU of equivalent quality.

본 연구에서 중형 상용민간항공기 추진진기관인 분리형 노즐을 갖는 2 스풀 터보팬 엔진인 BR715-56의[1] 정상 성능모델을 구성 및 탈설계점 성능해석이 상용코드인 MATLAB/SIMULINK를[2] 이용하여 엔진성능특성과 엔진진단을 위해 수행되었다. 먼저 팬, 고압압축기, 고압터빈, 저압터빈 구성품 성능 맵들이 축척방법을 이용하여 유사성능 맵들을 축척하여 생성되었고 다음 탈설계점 성능모사 프로그램이 구성품들 간 유량과 일 조화에 의해 구성되었다. 모델은 용이한 정상 및 동적 모사와 사용자 편의의 장점을 갖는 SIMULINK 프로그램을 이용하여 개발되었다. 제안한 모델에 의한 탈설계점 해석 결과들은 다양한 작동 조건들에서 GASTURB에 의한 해석 결과들과 잘 일치함이 확인 되었다.

Korean bullhead (Pseudobagrus fulvidraco) was collected from the Kum River areas of Kangkyung-eup, Nonsan city, Chungcheongnam-do, Korea, from April to June, 2012 and was fertilized in order to observe egg development and temperature-related cleavage rates and mitotic intervals (${\tau}_0$). The fertilized eggs were separative, demersal and light yellowish with $1.5{\pm}0.06mm$ in diameter, and did not contain oil globules. The first cleavage stages were 90 min, 80 min, 60 min and 50 min at $21^{\circ}C$, $24^{\circ}C$, $27^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively. At higher temperatures, eggs developed faster and underwent further identical development. For Korean bullhead, ${\tau}_0$ were $33.4{\pm}2.08$ min at $21^{\circ}C$, $31.5{\pm}3.06$ min at $24^{\circ}C$, $28.1{\pm}2.11$ min at $27^{\circ}C$ and $26.4{\pm}3.35$ min at $30^{\circ}C$. There were strong negative correlations between the $\tau_0$ and water temperatures at all points studied (Y=-1.13X+58.15, $R^2$=0.98, n=30, where Y is ${\tau}_0$ and X is temperature). The results obtained in this work will be helpful for chromosome manipulation by use of cleavage frequency data and ${\tau}_0$ data in Korean bullhead.
