For the evaluation of safety margin of a nuclear power plant using a conservative methodology, the influence of applied assumptions such as initial conditions and boundary conditions needs to be assessed deliberately. Usually, a combination of the most conservative initial conditions is determined, and the safety margin for the transient is evaluated through the analysis for this conservative conditions. In existing conservative methodologies, a most-conservative condition is searched through the analyses for the maximum, minimum, and nominal values of the major parameters. In the present study, we investigates a new approach which can be applied to choose a most-conservative initial condition effectively when a best-estimate computer code and a conservative evaluation methodology are utilized for the evaluation of safety margin of transients. By constituting the band of various initial conditions using the random sampling of input parameters, the sensitivity study for various parameters are performed systematically. A method of sampling the value of control or operation parameters for a certain range is adopted by use of MOSAIQUE program, which enables to minimize the efforts for achieving the steady-state for various different conditions. A representative control parameter is identified, which governs the reactor coolant flow rate, pressurizer pressure, pressurizer level, and steam generator level, respectively. It is shown that an appropriate distribution of input parameter is obtained by adjusting the range and distribution of the control parameter.

In this paper, we propose sliding mode congestion controller for differentiated-services network. Two important issue in differentiated-services architecture are bandwidth guarantee and fair sharing of unsubscribed bandwidth among TCP flows with and without bandwidth reservation. We use tight upper and lower bounds for various settings of differentiated-services parameters using the loss-bounded model. The Sliding mode congestion controller scheme is designed using nonlinear control theory based on a nonlinear model of the network that is generated using fluid flow consideration. The methodology used is general and independent of technology, as for example TCP/IP or ATM. The sliding mode congestion controller methodology has been applied to an TCP network. We use NS-2 simulation to demonstrate that the proposed control methodology achieves the desired behavior of the network, and possesses important attributes. as e.g, stable and robust behavior, high utilization with bounded delay and loss, together with good steady-state and transient behavior.

두 벽면이 서로 다른 평균 온도와 일정한 위상 차이 하에서 작은 파동수의 정현적인 온도 분포를 갖는 시스템에서의 자연 대류를 조사한다. 벽면 온도 분포의 파동수 k=0.5이고 위상차는 ㄱ/2 이며, 고려하는 유체는 Pr =0.7인 공기이다. 작은 Rayleigh 수의 전도 영역에서는 한 주기에 걸쳐 약간 기울어진 형태의 두 개의 큰 셀이 형성된다. 그러나 Rayleigh 수가 증가하면 열적으로 불안정한 영역에서 여러 개의 셀이 형성되는 다수 셀 유동이 일어난다. 다수 셀 영역에서 과도기적인 기간에서는 일시적으로 공간적인 점대칭성이 깨어지기도 하지만 정상 상태의 유동장은 언제나 대칭성을 만족한다. 유동 형태의 천이가 일어나는 임계 Rayleigh 수 부근에서는 Nusselt 수가 급격하게 증가한다.

본 논문에서는 싸이리스터 부하에서 발생하는 무효전력과 고조파를 보상하기 위한 순시무효전력 보상장치에 관하여 기술하였다. 저자는 기본파 위상 지연과 고조파 전류외형에 기인하는 순시무효전력을 새로이 정의하고 순시전력흐름의 관점에서 그 물리적 의미를 고찰하였다. 순시전압 및 순시전류의 궤환에 의해 순시무효전력을 계산하고, 이를 부하와 병렬로 연결된 전류제어형 PWM컨버터에 의해 보상하였다. PWM컨버터는 전류오차 백터제어방식에 의한 전류제어 PWM 기법을 사용함으로써 우수한 전류제어특성을 실현할 수 있었다. 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통하여 정상상태 및 과도상태에서의 탁월한 보상특성이 입증되었다.

A small-scale horizontal axis hydrokinetic turbine is designed, manufactured and studied both experimentally and numerically in this study. The turbine is expected to work in most of China's sea areas where the ocean current velocity is low and to supply electricity for remote islands. To improve the efficiency of the turbine at low flow velocities, a magnetic coupling is used for the non-contacting transmission of the rotor torque. A prototype is manufactured and tested in a towing tank. The experimental results show that the turbine is characterized by a cut-in velocity of 0.25 m/s and a maximum power coefficient of 0.33, proving the feasibility of using magnetic couplings to reduce the resistive torque in the transmission parts. Three dimensional Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations, which are based on the Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations, are then performed to evaluate the performance of the rotor both at transient and steady state.

Various compensators are installed into the power system to operate the system economically and stably by maximizing the availability of utilities and power transmission capability. Fixed Capacitor(FC), Mechanical Switched Capacitor(MSC), and FACTS(Flexible AC Transmission Systems) are used to regulate voltage and power flow of the system. When a disturbance occurs in the power system, the Fixed Capacitor operates dependently on the voltage of the power system and cannot change the amount of installation automatically. But compared to other equipment, the Fixed Capacitor is more economical due to its low cost. Since MSC can change the amount of installation according to the state of the power system, operates more effectively than the Fixed Capacitor. FACTS have fast dynamic performance for the transient condition, but the cost is high. Therefore, it is needed to develop an optimized installation planning for the reactive power compensators by considering their dynamic performance and cost. In this paper, an optimized compensator combination and the proposed scheme is proposed and it is applied to KEPCO system in order to show its capabilities.

The design and maintenance of navigation channel and water facilities of an harbor which is located at the mouth of river or at the estuary area are difficult due to the complexity of estuarial water and sediment circulation. Effects of deepening navigable waterways, of changing coastline configurations, or of discharging dredged material to the open sea are necessary to be investigated and predicted in terms of water quality and possible physical changes to the coastal environment. A borad analysis of the transport mechanism in the estuary area was made in terms of sediment property, falling velocity, concentration and flow characteristics. In order to simulate the transport processes, a two-dimensional finite element model is developed, which includes erosion, transport and deposition mechanism of suspended sediments. Galerkin’s weighted residual method is used to solve the transient convection-diffusion equation. The fluid domain is subdivided into a series of triangular elements in which a quadratic approximation is made for suspended sediment concentration. Model could deal with a continuous aggregation by stipulating the settling velocity of the flocs in each element. The model provides suspended sediment concentration, bed shear stress, erosion versus deposition rate and bed profile at the given time step.

Sampling based uncertainty analysis was carried out to quantify uncertainty in predictions of best estimate code RELAP5/MOD3.2 for a thermal hydraulic test (10% hot leg break LOCA) performed in the Large Scale Test Facility (LSTF) as a part of an IAEA coordinated research project. The nodalisation of the test facility was qualified for both steady state and transient level by systematically applying the procedures led by uncertainty methodology based on accuracy extrapolation (UMAE); uncertainty analysis was carried out using the Latin hypercube sampling (LHS) method to evaluate uncertainty for ten input parameters. Sixteen output parameters were selected for uncertainty evaluation and uncertainty band between $5^{th}$ and $95^{th}$ percentile of the output parameters were evaluated. It was observed that the uncertainty band for the primary pressure during two phase blowdown is larger than that of the remaining period. Similarly, a larger uncertainty band is observed relating to accumulator injection flow during reflood phase. Importance analysis was also carried out and standard rank regression coefficients were computed to quantify the effect of each individual input parameter on output parameters. It was observed that the break discharge coefficient is the most important uncertain parameter relating to the prediction of all the primary side parameters and that the steam generator (SG) relief pressure setting is the most important parameter in predicting the SG secondary pressure.

Mathematical models for various steps in coal gasification reactions were developed and applied to investigate the effects of operation parameters on dynamic behavior of gasification process. Chemical reactions considered in these models were pyrolysis, volatile combustion, water shift reaction, steam-methane reformation, and char gasification. Kinetics of heterogeneous reactions between char and gaseous agents was based on Random pore model. Momentum balance and Stokes' law were used to estimate the residence time of solid particles (char) in an up-flow reactor. The effects of operation parameters on syngas composition, reaction temperature, carbon conversion were verified. Parameters considered here for this purpose were $O_2$-to-coal mass ratio, pressure of reactor, composition of coal, diameter of char particle. On the basis of these parametric studies some quantitative parameter-response relationships were established from both dynamic and steady-state point of view. Without depending on steady state approximation, the present model can describe both transient and long-time limit behavior of the gasification system and accordingly serve as a proto-type dynamic simulator of coal gasification process. Incorporation of heat transfer through heterogenous boundaries, slag formation and steam generation is under progress and additional refinement of mathematical models to reflect the actual design of commercial gasifiers will be made in the near futureK.

열다이오드란 유체의 밀도차에 기인한 대류에 의하여 일방향성 열전달이 주로 일어나며 역방향의 열전달은 미미하도록 고안된 장치이다. 본연구에서는 실용적인 측면에서 평행사변형 형상과 직사각형 형상을 조합하고 좌우에 수직 평판을 설치하였으며, 내부 안내판을 가진 공기식 열다이오드를 제작하여 천이 및 정상상태에 관한 연구를 하였다. 공급된 열속에 따른 $Gr^*$는 $1.11{\times}10^{10}{\sim}1.4{\times}10^{10}$ 사이에 존재하였고 전체 실험 과정에 있어서 $Gr^*$ 값은 ${\pm}3%$ 이내로 유지되었다. $Gr^*$의 증가에 따라 Nu값은 거의 선형적으로 증가하는 경향을 보였으며 guide vane의 유무와 유동통로의 깊이(channel depth)에 따라서는 민감한 경향을 보였다. 경사각의 변화에 따라 온도상태가 무차원시간 $0.5{\sim}0.6$ 에서 나타나는 것으로 보아 시스템의 특성으로 본다.
