지지격자가 있는 봉다발과 축방향으로 평행한 유동에서, 봉다발 마찰계수와 지지격자 손실계수를 평가하였다. 시험부는 외경 9.5 mm, 길이 2000 mm 인 봉 25 개를 $5{\times}5$ 정사각 구조로 배열하여 제작하였으며, 봉 중심간 거리와 봉 외경의 비는 1.35 였다. 지지격자로는 plain 지지격자, split-vane 지지격자, hybrid-vane 지지격자를 이용하였다. 지지격자가 없는 봉다발의 마찰계수는 기존 상관식과 비교적 잘 일치하였다. 지지격자가 있는 봉다발 실험의 경우, hybrid-vane 지지격자에서 봉다발 마찰계수 및 지지격자 손실계수가 가장 크게 측정되었으며, 이는 지지격자의 유동단면 막음비 증가와 혼합날개 형상에 의한 유동 교란이 증가되기 때문인 것으로 판단된다. Re=$5{\times}10^5$ 조건에서 plain 지지격자, split-vane 지지격자, hybrid-vane 지지격자의 손실계수는 약 0.79, 0.80, 0.88 로 예측되었다.

The primary objectives of the rolling process are to reduce the cross section of the incoming material while improving its properties and to obtain the desired section at the exit from the rolls. Many engineering metals, suchas aluminium alloys, copper alloys, and steels are often cast intoingots and are then further processed byhot rolling into blooms, slabs, and billets, which are subsequently rolled into other products such as plate, sheet, tube, rod, bar, and structural shapes. In shape rolling a round or square bar is rolled in several passes into various shapes. During eachpass, the bar elongates as well as spreads. Thus, a very complex three-dimensional metal flow takes place. In this paper TASKS results for the simulation of a 7 pass square-to-round shape rolling are presented. The results are verified by comparing it with experimental results from a previous study conducted at the Battelle Columbus Labs

In this paper we tried to analyze through the water tank model to solve these kinds of problems about the square plate earth electrode using general facilities with being compared with the theory formula announced before. The square plate earth electrode that haven't investigated so far is analyzed by being based on laid rod electrode. And the each kind of calculation model was investigated with the experiment of water tank. An experiment of the vertical square Plate electrode about laying depth in the center of the surface of the water has already done with the practical models that have different forms of electrodes.

KHNP had licensed Dynamic Control rod Reactivity Measurement (DCRM) method using detector current signals of PWRs in 2006. The method has been applied to all PWRs in Korea for about 15 years successfully. However, the original method was inapplicable to PWRs using low-sensitivity integral fission chamber as ex-core detectors because of their pulse pile-up and the nonlinearity of the mean-square voltage at low power region. Therefore, to overcome this disadvantage, a modified method, DCRM-EK, was developed using kinetics behavior after equilibrium condition where the pulse counts maintain the maximum value before pulse pile-up. Overall measurement, analysis procedure, and related computer codes were changed slightly to reflect the site test condition. The new method was applied to a total of 15 control rods of 1000 MWe and 1400 MWe PWRs in Korea with worths in the range of 200 pcm -1200 pcm. The results show the average difference of -0.4% and the maximum difference of 7.1% compared to the design values. Therefore, the new DCRM-EK will be applied to PWRs using low sensitivity integral fission chambers, and also can replace the original DCRM when the evaluation fails by big noises present in current or voltage signals of uncompensated/compensated ion chambers.

A subchannel analysis code MATRA applicable to PWRs and ALWRs has been developed to be run on an IBM PC or HP WS based on the existing CDC CYBER mainframe version of COBRA-Rf-1. This MATRA code is a thermal-hydraulic analysis code based on the subchannel approach for calculating the enthalpy and How distribution in fuel assemblies and reactor cores for both steady-state and transient conditions. HATRA has been provided with an improved structure, various functions, and models to give more convenient user environment and to enhance the code accuracy. Among them, the pressure drop model has been improved to be applied to non-square-lattice rod arrays, and the models for the lateral transport between adjacent subchannels have been improved to enhance the accuracy in predicting two-phase flow phenomena. The predictions of MATRA were compared with the experimental data on the flow and enthalpy distribution in some sample rod-bundle cases to evaluate the performance of MATRA. All the results revealed that the predictions of MATRA were better than those of COBRA-IV-I.

Experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of the initial turbulent intensity on the flow and heat transfer characteristics for a two-dimensional impinging jet. A square rod was installed at the nozzle exit to increase initial turbulent intensity. A hot wire probe and thermochromic liquid crystal technique were used to measure the turbulent intensity and the surface temperature. All measurements were made over a range of nozzle-to-plate distance from 1 to 10 at Re=20,000. When the rod is not installed, the maximum stagnation point Nusselt number is occurred at H/B=9. A higher initial turbulent intensity enhanced the heat transfer on the surface. A correlation between stagnation point Nusselt number and turbulent intensity are presented.

Presently, test results and stress-strain models for poorly confined high-strength columns, more specifically for columns with a tie volumetric ratio smaller than $2.0\%$, are scarce. This paper presents test results loaded in axial direction for square reinforced concrete columns confined by various volumetric ratio lateral ties including low-volumetric ratio. Test variables include concrete compressive strength, tie yield strength, tie arrangement type, and tie volumetric ratio. Local strains measured using strain gages bonded to an acryl rod. For square RC columns confined by lateral ties, the confinement effect was efficiently improved by changing tie arrangement type from Type-A to Type-B. A method to compute the stress in lateral ties at the concrete peak strength and a new stress-strain model for the confined concrete are proposed. Over a wide range of confinement parameters, the model shows good agreement with stress-strain relationships established experimentally.

In this study total of six buckling-restrained braces (BRBs) were manufactured using a square steel rod as a load-resisting core member and a hollow steel tube as restrainer to prevent global buckling of the core. The gap between the core and the tube was filled with steel rods as filler material. The performances of the proposed BRB from uniaxial and subassemblage tests were compared with those of the specimens filled with mortar. The test results showed that the performance of the BRB with discontinuous steel rods as filler material was not satisfactory, whereas the BRBs with continuous steel rods as filler material showed good performance when the external tubes were strong enough against buckling. It was observed that the buckling strength of the external tube of the BRBs filled with steel rods needs to be at least twice as high as that of the BRBs filled with mortar to ensure high cumulative plastic deformation of the BRB.

This paper describes the experimental results of a transient impedance characteristics of grounding rods to a square pulse and standard lightning impulse current. The test were performed on single grounding rod($\phi$ 10mm, 1m) and triple-grounding rods( $\phi$ 10mm, 1m) of equilateral triangles with 5m spacing. For measurements of transient impedance, a pulse generator which can produce square wave of 30ns rise time and 20U Pulse duration was designed and fabricated. In the experiment, transient impedance of the grounding systems have been investigated from the recorded potential and current waveforms. The results showed that the value of the transient impedance is quite higher than the stationary resistance, and provide useful information for the value of a grounding system considered transient characteristics under a high frequency condition such as lightning stokes and ground-fault.

This paper proposes a detection method for mechanically stuck control rod drive mechanisms (CRDMs) in the nuclear reactor. From an electrical viewpoint, a coil of an electro-mechanical CRDM is modelled as an R-L circuit with time-varying inductance. The inductance of the coil is estimated from the measured voltage and current by using the least square method. Numerical experiments are carried out to illustrate the proposed method.
