  • 본 인구에서는 레이놀즈응력모형을 이용하여 직사각형 개수로 흐름을 수치모의 하고 이차흐름의 생성 메커니즘을 제시하였다. 수치모의 결과 자유수면과 측벽의 접합부 근처에서 inner secondary flow가 발생하였다. 이는 최근 Grega 등(1995)과 Hsu 등(2000)에 의해 밝혀진 새로운 이차흐름이다. 또한 측벽에서의 전단력 분포를 계산한 결과 inner secondary flow에 의하여 수면 근처에서의 전단력 값이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 계산된 결과를 이용하여 와도 방정식에서 각 항의 크기를 비교하여 이차 흐름의 생성 메커니즘을 살펴보았다. 그 결과 벽 및 측벽 경계 부근에서는 난류의 비등방성에 의한 와도 생성항에 의해 이차 흐름이 생성되고, 경계와 멀리 떨어진 영역에서는 레이놀즈응력에 의한 와도 생성항이 이차흐름을 생성시키는데 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다.

  • The purpose of this study is to optimize the design of the jack-up platform for 5MW offshore wind turbine system. Considering all the environmental loads such as currents, waves, winds and so on, the members of structures have been designed and optimized based on the AISC and API-RP-2A to be within the allowable stress even in the most critical and severe condition. In addition to the above strength check of structural members, the joint punching shear check and the hydrostatic collapse check are also performed where they are required for the design. The design life of the jack-up platform is 50 years for the static strength check and the fatigue design life is 100 years including to the DFF(Design Fatigue Factor) of 2.0 to have enough stability and workability for the design optimization.

  • This paper presents a new accelerating aging test facility for distribution lightning arresters. Aging parameters of lightning arrester are moisture ingress, electrical stress and surge absorption and so on. In this system, we applied 13.2kV to 6 samples and controled temperature and humidity of chamber and measured leakage currents of the all samples. Also we developed accelerating aging cycle which consists of -35$^{\circ}C$∼90$^{\circ}C$ temperature and 40%∼90% humidity. Through the aging test we found out the leakage current of aged sample increases rapidly according to the temperature rising. Hereafter we can determine the replacement guide of leakage current for field operating arresters and condition assessment of aged samples through this aging test.

  • In order to improve the output efficiency of solar cells and to extend the life span of batteries, the input currents of converters are required to be continuous. If low output voltage ripple is required at the same time, it is obvious that the application of basic two-order converters (such as Buck and Boost derived converters) will not be good enough. In this paper, a lot of non-isolated push-pull converters (NIPPCs) with continuous current will be introduced due to their lower current stress, higher efficiency and better EMC performance. By decomposing the converters into push-pull cells, inductor and free-wheeling diodes, two families of NIPPCs based on single inductor and coupled inductor separately are systematically generated. Furthermore, characteristics analyses for some of the generated converters are also shown in this paper. Finally, two prototypes based on the corresponding typical topologies are built in the lab to verify the theoretical outcomes.

  • This investigation is concerned with the disturbances in a homogeneous transversely isotropic thermoelastic rotating medium with two temperature, in the presence of the combined effects of Hall currents and magnetic field due to normal force of ramp type. The formulation is applied to the thermoelasticity theories developed by Green-Naghdi Theories of Type-II and Type-III. Laplace and Fourier transform technique is applied to solve the problem. The analytical expressions of displacements, stress components, temperature change and current density components are obtained in the transformed domain. Numerical inversion technique has been applied to obtain the results in the physical domain. Numerically simulated results are depicted graphically to show the effects of Hall current and anisotropy on the resulting quantities. Some special cases are also deduced from the present investigation.

  • Various loads induced by marine environmental conditions, such as waves, currents, and wind, are crucial for the operation and viability of offshore wind power (OWP) systems. In particular, waves have a significant impact on the stress and fatigue load of offshore structures, and highly reliable design parameters should be derived through extreme value analysis (EVA) techniques. In this study, extreme wave analyses were conducted with various Weibull distribution models to determine the reliable design parameters of an OWP system suitable for the Ulsan area. Forty-three years of long-term hindcast data generated by a numerical wave model were adopted as the analyses data, and the least-squares method was used to estimate the parameters of the distribution function for EVA. The inverse first-order reliability method was employed as the EVA technique. The obtained results were compared among themselves under the assumption that the marginal probability distributions were 2p, 3p, and exponentiated Weibull distributions.

  • The construction of the coastal structures and reclamation work causes the circulation reduced in the semi-closed inner water area and the unbalanced sediment budget of beach results in an alteration of beach topography. Among the various fluid motions in the nearshore zone water particle motion due to wave and wave-induced currents are the most responsible for sediment movement. Therefore it is needed to predict the effect of the environmental change because of development and so the prediction of wave transformation dose. The purpose of this study is to introduce the relation between waves wave-induced currents and sediment movement. In this study we will show numerical method using energy conservation equation involving reflection diffraction and reflection and the surfzone energy dissipation term due to wave breaking is included in the basic equation. For the wave-induced current the momentum equation was combined with radiation stresses lateral mixing and friction Various information is required in the prediction of wave-induced current depending on the prediction tool. We can predict changes in wave-induced current from the distribution of wave especially near the wave breaking zone. To evaluate these quantities we have to know the local condition of waves mean sea level and so on. The results from the wave field and wave-induced current field deformation models are used as input data of the sediment transport and bottom change model. Numerical model were established by a finite difference method then were applied to the development plan of the eastern Pusan coastal zone Yeonhwa-ri and Daebyun fishing port. We represented the result with 2-D graphics and made comparison between before and after development.

  • This paper proposes a novel multi-level energy recovery sustaining driver for AC PDP(Plasma Display Panel), which solves the problems of the conventional multi-level sustaining driver. While the conventional circuit improves the voltage md current stress of the switching elements in Weber circuit not only there are parasitic resonant currents between resonant inductors and parasitic capacitance and hard switching, but also the changing period between 0 and sustain voltage is too long. Comparing the proposed circuit with the conventional circuit, the number of components are reduced and the parasitic resonant currents in resonant inductors are eliminated Moreover the hard switching problem is solved by using CIM(Current Injection Method) and the operating frequency will be high as much as possible by removing Vs/2 sustain period. And the circuit operations of the proposed circuit are analyzed for each mode and the validity is verified by the simulations using PSpice program.

  • In this study, after the installation of a subsea pipeline, backfilling was performed in the trenched area. During these operations, a stability problem in the subsea pipeline occurred. The pipeline was directly impacted by environmental loading such as waves and currents that were caused by backfill material when scouring or sediment transport and siltation was carried out. Therefore, this study reviewed whether trenching was necessary, and conducted research into an indigenous seabed property that contains granular soil. A study of cohesive soil was also conducted in order to cross-correlate after calculating the values of the critical Shields parameter relevant to elements of the external environment such as waves and current, and the shear Shields parameter that depends on the actual shearing stress. In case of 1), sedimentation or erosion does not occur. In the case of 2), partial sedimentation or erosion occurs. If the case is 3), full sedimentation or erosion occurs. Therefore, in the cases of 1) or 2), problems in structural subsea pipeline stability will not occur even if partial sedimentation or erosion occurs. This should be reflected particularly in cases with granular and cohesive soil when a reduction in shear strength occurs by cyclic currents and waves. In addition, since backfilling material does not affect the original seabed shear strength, a set-up factor should be considered to use a reduced of the shear strength in the original seabed.

  • A three-dimensional, finite difference, numerical model with free surface was developed on ${\sigma}$-coordinate. A semi-implicit numerical scheme in time has been adopted for computational efficiency. The scheme is essentially independent of the stringent stability criteria (CFL condition) for explicit schemes of external surface gravity wave. Implicit algorithm was applied for vertical shear stress, Coriolis force and pressure gradient terms. The reliability of the model with vertically variable grid system was checked by the comparison of simulation results with analytic solution of wind-driven currents in a one-dimensional channel. Sensitivity analysis of differencing parameters was carried out by applying the model to the calculation of wind-driven currents in a square lake.
