Vapor explosion is one of the most important problems encountered in severe accident management of nuclear power plants. In spite of many efforts, a lot of questions still remain. So, KAERI launched a real experimental program called TROI using $UO_{2}$ and $ZrO_{2}$ to investigate the vapor explosion. Besides TROI tests, a small-scale experiment with molten-tin/water system was performed to quantify the characteristics of vapor explosion and to understand the phenomenology of vapor explosion. A vapor explosion was observed while the amount of air bubble and water temperature were systematically varied The mass and temperature of tin are $50\;g\;and\;150^{\circ}C$, respectively. Water temperature is set to $24^{\circ}C\;and\;50^{\circ}C$. The void fraction of air bubble ranges from $0\;to\;10\;{\%}$. The strength of vapor explosion was measured using dynamic pressure sensors attached in reactor tube wall. as a function of void fraction. In addition, a high speed video filming up to 1,000 flame/sec was taken in order to visually investigate the behavior of the vapor explosion .

Vapor explosion is one of the most important problems encountered in severe accident management of nuclear power plants. In spite of many efforts, a lot of questions still remain for the fundamental understanding of vapor explosion phenomena. Therefore, KAERI launched a real material experiment called TROI using 20 kg of UO2 and ZrO2 to investigate the vapor explosion phenomena. In addition, a small-scale experiment with molten-tin/water system was performed to quantify the characteristics of vapor explosion and to understand the phenomenology of vapor explosion. A number of instruments were used to measure the physical change occurring during the vapor explosion. In this experiment, the vapor explosion generated by molten fuel water interaction is visualized using high speed camera and the pressure behavior accompanying the explosion is investigated.

In this research, we constructed a 3D riverbed surveying system that is able to acquire the topographical information of a riverbed in real-time. The system consists of a RTK-GPS receiver and a echo sounder for collecting simultaneously the position and the water depth information of riverbed. A program for data composition and transformation was designed to generate the 3D coordinates by combining data of a GPS receiver and a echo sounder and made GIS database construction easy. We extracted TIN, digital elevation model and cross sectional maps of the riverbed by using GIS software from 3D data constructed through test surveying. It was shown that the accuracy of the result was RMS error of 0.069m when compared with the existing methods which use a total station and staffs. It is expected that the 3D riverbed surveying system wiil be able to be utilized to various surveying for water resources management in rivers, sea, dams, storing reservoirs and so forth.

우리나라에서는 지속적인 자연재해로 각기 다른 필요성과 목적에 따라 다양한 형태의 홍수 침수 관련 지도가 작성되어 왔다. 연구 성과로 작성된 계획 빈도 및 상위 2개 빈도의 호우피해예상도를 실측 강우와 연계하여 재난관리단계별 대응단계에 활용하기 위해 실시간 피해위험구역을 표출하고자 한다. 본 연구는 실시간으로 피해위험구역을 표출하기 위해 실측 강우와 연계된 호우피해예상도에 공간 보간 알고리즘을 적용하고자 한다. 호우피해예상도란 돌발호우나 태풍으로 인하여 홍수가 발생하면 인명 및 재산피해를 최소화하기 위해 홍수지역을 미리 예측 가능하도록 제작된 지도이다. 지형자료(DEM), 하천 중심선(Stream Centerline), 하천 횡단면(Cross-Section Line), 제방고(Bank), 수문기상 자료(Hydrological Data), 조도계수(Roughness) 등을 사용하여 하천법 제 21조와 하천법시행령 제 17조를 근거로 작성된다. 본 연구에서는 호우피해예상도에 IDW(Inverse Distance Weighted, 역거리가중법) 보간, TIN(Triangulated Irregular Network system, 불규칙삼각망) 보간, Kriging 보간 방법 적용 알고리즘을 제시하고자 하였다. 호우피해예상도에 보간 알고리즘을 적용하기 위해 보간 방법에 따른 적용사례를 분석하였으며 그 결과, 보간 알고리즘을 적용한 호우피해예상도 보간을 통하여 계획빈도 및 상위 2개 빈도 이외의 빈도(하위빈도-계획빈도, 계획빈도-상위빈도 구간)에 대한 호우피해예상도의 피해위험구역 구현 방안을 제시하였다. 호우피해예상도에 IDW, TIN, Kriging 보간 알고리즘을 적용하여 계획빈도 및 상위빈도 이외의 빈도에 대한 피해위험구역을 표출 할 수 있다. 표출된 계획빈도 및 상위빈도 이외의 빈도를 지점확률강우량-빈도에 대한 Matching table을 통하여 실측 강우와 연계 가능하다. 본 연구 결과는 추후 풍수해피해예측시스템에 활용하여 재난관리단계별 예방 및 대응 단계에 활용 할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Metal distribution in the reaction products and system of reactions between organo chloro acid or ester and zinc, silicon, magnesium, and tin under acetonitrile, dioxane, and toluene solvent were determined by means of radioactive tracer prepared by means of a (n, ${\gamma}$) reaction. It was found that the solubility of the organo halogen metal complex was markedly increased in a hydrophilic solvent and was decreased in a nonpolar solvent which resulted in an increased metal distribution in the recovered metal or water washing of the recovered metal mixture. This was also true in the case of the reaction conducted in the presence of a carbonyl compound. The relative increase of the solubility of the metal complex in a hydrophilic solvent was in order of zinc, silicon, tin and magnesium, and in a nonpolar solvent, it was in order of silicon, tin, magnesium, and zinc. There was no formation of organo metallics throughout the reaction sequence. The result was discussed and the observed solvent influence on the present reaction path was criticized.

A comparative evaluation of water quality in the existing semiclosed fish culture system was made to improve the system management. From the comparison of water quality between the flow-through mode and the recycle mode of the semiclosed system, the malfunctioning of the settling channel deteriorated water quality and reduce the nitrification rate in the recycle mode. The peak concentrations of COD, $PO_4-P$ and SS in the fish tanks appeared just after feeding, and then decreased to normal levels within two hours. However, the $NH_4-N$ concentration increased slightly after two hours of feeding in the recycle mode. The water exchange rate was directly related to the water quality in the semiclosed fish culture system.

We present multifunctional indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films formed at room temperature by a normal sputtering system equipped with a plasma limiter which effectively blocks the bombardment of energetic negative oxygen ions (NOIs). The ITO thin film possesses not only low resistivity but also high gas diffusion barrier properties even though it is deposited on a plastic substrate at room temperature without post annealing. Argon neutrals incident to substrates in the sputtering have an optimal energy window from 20 to 30 eV under the condition of blocking energetic NOIs to form ITO nano-crystalline structure. The effect of blocking energetic NOIs and argon neutrals with optimal energy make the resistivity decrease to $3.61{\times}10-4{\Omega}cm$ and the water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) of 100 nm thick ITO film drop to $3.9{\times}10-3g/(m2day)$ under environmental conditions of 90% relative humidity and 50oC, which corresponds to a value of ~ 10-5 g/(m2day) at room temperature and air conditions. The multifunctional ITO thin films with low resistivity and low gas permeability will be highly valuable for plastic electronics applications.

Polymer coatings are commonly applied to metal substrates to prevent corrosion in aggressive environments such as high humidity and under salt water. Once the polymer coating has been breached, for example due to cracking or scratches, it loses its effectiveness, and corrosion can rapidly propagate across the substrate. The self-healing system we will describe prevents corrosion by healing the damage through a healing reaction triggered by the actual damage event. This self-healing coating solution can be easily applied to most substrate materials, and our dual-capsule healing system provides a general approach to be compatible with most common polymer matrices. Specifically, we expect an excellent anti-corrosion property of the self-healing coatings in damaged parts coated on galvanized metal substrates.
