본 연구에서는 금속성분을 다량 함유한 전기로산화슬래그(EOS)를 골재로 활용한 콘크리트에 도전성이 높은 카본계 재료를 혼입하여 현장적용이 가능한 EMP 차폐 콘크리트의 최적배합을 도출하고자 기초적인 물성과 두께별 EMP 차폐성능을 평가하였다. 평가결과 슬럼프는 카본섬유(CF)의 혼입량이 증가할수록 저하, 밀드카본(MCF) 혼입시 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 압축강도는 EOS가 NA에 비해 강도를 증진시키는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, CF 및 MCF 혼입시 강도가 저하되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. EMP 차폐 측정결과 두께가 증가할수록 차폐율이 증가하였으며, 도전성 재료의 첨가량보다 도전성 재료의 종류 및 시험체의 두께가 차폐율 증가에 영향력이 더 큰 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 종합적으로 비교평가를 진행한 결과 EMP 차폐 콘크리트 배합으로 EOS CF 0.2가 적합한 것으로 사료된다.

The number of facilities using radiation generators increases and related regulations are strengthened, the establishment of a shielding management and evaluation technology has become important. The characteristics of the radiation generator used in previous report differ from those of currently available high-frequency radiation generators. This study aimed to manufacture lead, iron, and concrete shielding materials for the re-verification of half-value layers, tenth-value layers, and attenuation curve. For a comparison of attenuation ratio, iron, lead, and concrete shields were manufactured in this study. The initial dose was measured without shielding materials, and doses measured under different types and thicknesses of shielding material were compared with the initial dose to calculate the transmission rate on 50-300 kVp X-ray. All the three shielding materials showed a tendency to require greater shielding thickness for higher energy. The attenuation graph showed an exponential shape as the thickness decreased and a straight line as the thickness increased. The difference between the measurement results and the previous study, except in extrapolated parts, may be due to the differences in the radiation generation characteristics between the generators used in the two studies. The attenuated graph measured in this study better reflects the characteristics of current radiation generators, which would be more effective for shield designing.

본 논문은 해중터널에 돌발용수 발생 시 급속팽창구조체를 통한 차폐에 관한 연구이다. 현재 국내에는 터널 내 돌발용수에 대한 대책이 미비한 실정이다. 터널 내 방수로, 수문 등 유입수 처리 시설이 설비되어 있지만 많은 양의 해수 또는 지하수 유입에 대한 한계가 있으며, 수문의 경우 차단하는 시간이 느리기 때문에 피해를 최소화 할 수 없는 상황이다. 이에 따라 급속팽창구조체에 대한 차폐율 및 축 방향 이동거리에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 축소모형 실험 결과를 통해 급속팽창구조체의 개수 및 내부 공압이 차폐율에 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다. 급속팽창구조체의 개수가 한 개에서 두개로 늘어남에 따라 차폐율이 약 35~40% 더 커지게 되었다. 또한 내부 공압이 0.2 bar에서 0.3 bar로 증가함에 따라 차폐율이 약 4% 더 커지는 것을 확인하였다. 실대형 실험을 통해 본 연구에서 확인된 결과를 검증하고 더욱 발전시킨다면 해저터널 또는 해중터널의 돌발용수에 있어 효과적인 방수대책으로 활용 가능할 것이라 판단된다.

In the present work, a new brick series based on the Vietnamese white clay minerals from the Bat Trang was fabricated to be applied in the radiation protection applications during the decommissioning of the nuclear power reactors. The bricks were constructed under various pressure rates varied from 7.61 MPa to 114.22 MPa. The influence of pressure rate on the physical and γ-ray shielding properties were investigated in the study. The experimental measurement for the material's density using the MH-300A density meter showed an enhancement in the prepared bricks' density by 22.5 % with increasing the applied pressure rate while the bricks' porosity reduced by 31.2 % when the pressure rate increased from 7.61 MPa to 114.22 MPa. The increase in the fabricated bricks density and the reduction in their porosities enhances the bricks' linear attenuation coefficients as measured by the NaI (Tl) detector along the energy range extended from 0.662 MeV to 1.332 MeV. The linear attenuation coefficient increased by 13.8 %, 17.6 %, 17.0 %, and 17.1 % at gamma ray energies of 0.662 MeV, 1.173 MeV, 1.252 MeV, and 1.332 MeV, respectively. The enhancement in the linear attenuation coefficient increases the bricks' radiation protection efficiency by 10.22 %, 14.48 %, 14.09 %, and 14.26 % at gamma ray energies of 0.662 MeV, 1.173 MeV, 1.252 MeV, and 1.332 MeV, respectively.

A shielding analysis for KSC-7, the shipping cask for transporting the 7 PWR spent fuel assemblies, has been carried out. Radiation source term has been calculated on spent fuel with burnup of 50,000 MWD/MTU and 1.5 years cooling time by ORIGEN2 code. The shielding calculation for the cask has been made by using MCNP4A code with continuous cross section data library from ENDF/B-V. As a result of neutron dose rate analysis, another shielding calculational model on spent fuel shipping cask was provided which is using the Monte Carlo method.

Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power Co., Ltd. (KHNP) developed new IP-2 packages to transport low- and intermediate-level radioactive waste (LILW) steel drums from nuclear power plants to a disposal facility in accordance with IAEA and Korean transport regulations of radioactive material. Radiation shielding evaluation of the packages was carried out to demonstrate compliance with the regulatory requirements for IP-2 packages of radioactive material. Dose rate limits of LILW drums contained in the packages were determined.

In the detail reaction-rate measurements in a critical assembly using the foil activation method, the measured activations of detector foils have inevitably errors caused by detector foil self-shielding effect. If neutron flux could be approximated to Westcott flux: i.e. well thermalized Maxwellian distribution, these activations of detector foil could be corrected to represent the unperturbated flux at any detected position in the cell with using Westcott option and reaction-rate option of the lattice code, WIMS-AECL. These calculated detector material self-shielding correction factors of the tested fuel, CANFLEX provided much information about neutron spectrum of test lattice cell as well as the correction factors themselves. The results could be verified by another lattice calculations.

Shielding methods on ELF(Extremely Low Frequency) magnetic fields may include the use of induced currents, modification of magnetic field flux patterns using high permeability and/or high conductivity materials, and others. The magnetic shielding properties of enclosures can be utilized to reduce the magnetic field of current carrying conductors. In this paper, to get a more practical understanding of shielding phenomena, we have investigated the magnetic field reduction by means of 3 dimensional numerical analysis and experiments. We found copper could reduce flux density more then permalloy in both cases of box shield and cylindrical shield. Iron under l0$\mu$T of 1 phase could reduce flux density about $20\%$ more than silicon steel, but both of them under 50$\mu$T has a similar reduction rate of $10\%$. The 3 phase horizontal model gave the highest reduction rate and the 1mm thickness iron under 10$\mu$T of 3 phase lines did lowest.

The present study was performed on humans to investigate the physiological strain of wearing protective clothing for shielding electromagnetic waves and to compare control clothing that are currently on the market and new clothing that are developed for improving thermal comfort and material weight. Experiments were conducted in a climatic chamber of $28.8{\pm}0.6^{\circ}C$, $37{\pm}5%$RH under three differed experimental clothing conditions: None, Control, New. The results were as follows. Mean skin temperature and rectal temperature in New were significantly lower than that in None and Control (p<.05). The temperature and humidity inside clothing were lower in None (p<.05). Total weight loss was lower in New. Thermal sensation and thermal comfort were less hot and more comfortable in New than those in Control. It was concluded that wearing the protective clothing for shielding electromagnetic waves affects physiological responses such as distribution of body temperature, sweat rate, etc.
