  • Systemic heating and cooling air conditioning systems are popular in various industrial fields and even home. Recently, the rate of supply of this kind of multi-heat pump has been increased under ESCO financing supporting system. Generally the heat pumping system has a structural simplicity and easy installation benefits. and has good running efficiency under normal designed condition. But under extreme climate condition (over $+30^{\circ}C$, under $-10^{\circ}C$), this system exposes abnormal power consumption. It causes high progressive electric power rates and resultant peak power capacity of power plant. In this paper, a novel system concept of buffering refrigerant accumulator and constant pressure control system to relieve peak power load is proposed and this system's utility is verified with an prototype experimental system.

  • Since the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster, concern and worry about multiunit accidents have been increasing. Korea has a higher urgency to evaluate its site risk because its number of nuclear power plants (NPPs) and population density are higher than those in other countries. Since the 1980s, technical documents have been published on multiunit probabilistic safety assessment (PSA), but the Fukushima accident accelerated research on multiunit PSA. It is therefore necessary to summarize the present situation and draw implications for further research. This article reviews journal and conference papers on multiunit or site risk evaluation published between 2011 and 2016. The contents of the reviewed literature are classified as research status, initiators, and methodologies representing dependencies, and the insights and conclusions are consolidated. As of 2017, the regulatory authority and nuclear power utility have launched a full-scale project to assess multiunit risk in Korea. This article provides comprehensive reference materials on the necessary enabling technology for subsequent studies of multiunit or site risk assessment.

  • A water treatment utility in South Korea operates a large system of pressurized hollow fiber membrane (PHFM) modules. The optimal selection of membrane module for the full scale plant was critical issue and carried out using Risk-based Life Cycle Cost (RbLCC) analysis based on the historical data of operation and maintenance. The RbLCC analysis was used in the process of decision-making for replacing aged modules. The initial purchasing cost and the value at risk during operation were considered together. The failure of modules occurs stochastically depending on the physical deterioration with usage over time. The life span of module was used as a factor for the failure of Poisson's probability model, which was used to obtain the probability of failure during the operation. The RbLCC was calculated by combining the initial cost and the value at risk without its warranty term. Additionally, the properties of membrane were considered to select the optimum product. Results showed that the module's life span in the system was ten years (120 month) with safety factor. The optimum product was selected from six candidates membrane for a full scale water treatment facility. This method could be used to make the optimum and rational decision for the operation of membrane water purification facility.

  • Biodiversity refers to the total number and variation among species of flora and fauna of an area. Due to tremendous biotic especially anthropogenic pressure these natural resources are being vanishing. In present study genetic diversity among accessions of Thamnocalamus spathiflorus was evaluated. A total of 51 vegetative characters and 42 primers (10-mer) were screened. Out of 42 screened primers, 28 polymorphic primers were selected for further analysis. A total of 263 bands were recorded as polymorphic whereas 48 bands were monomorphic. The resolving power (Rp) of 28 Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) primers ranged from 4.6 (OPE08) to 17.6 (OPA11). The polymorphic information content (PIC) value ranged from 0.21 (OPAH09) to 0.44 (OPG02). The result revealed high degree of genetic relatedness (56 to 80%). Cluster analysis revealed two major clusters both for morphology as well as RAPD. Unlike morphological characterization, the accession (D5) from Bahli, Rampur, Shimla (H.P.) was clustered separately from the others in RAPD cluster analysis. Accessions with closed locality grouped together through RAPD marker system however analogy was recorded for morphological traits. The study conducted reflects the utility of RAPD technique for species identification and phylogenetic studies in bamboo for conducting bamboo breeding program.

  • Commercial deployment of nuclear microreactors presents an opportunity for the industry to rethink its approach to manufacturing, siting, operation and maintenance, and fuel cycle management as certain principles used in grid-scale nuclear projects are not applicable to a decentralized microreactor economy. The success of this nascent industry is dependent on its ability to reduce infrastructure, logistical, regulatory and lifecycle costs. A utility-like 'Central Facility' that consolidates the services required and responsibilities borne by vendors into one or a few centralized locations will be necessary to support the deployment of a fleet of microreactors. This paper discusses the requirements for a Central Facility, its implications on the cost structures of owners and suppliers of microreactors, and the impact of the facility for the broader microreactor industry. In addition, this paper discusses the pre-requisites for eligibility as well as the opportunities for a Central Facility host site. While there are many suitable locations for such a capability across the U.S., this paper considers a facility co-located with the Vogtle Nuclear Power Plant and Savannah River Sites to illustrate how a Central Facility can leverage the existing infrastructure and stimulate a local ecosystem.

  • 꽃노랑총채벌레(Frankliniella occidentalis) 방제 전략 가운데 하나로 대량유살 기술이 제기되었다. 이를 위해 본 연구는 이 해충에 적용되는 상용유인제의 효능을 시설 고추재배지를 중심으로 분석하였다. 총채벌레 모니터링에 사용되는 점착트랩의 경우 청색과 황색 색상에 따른 유인력 차이는 크지 않았다. 그러나 트랩의 위치는 큰 변수로서 기주에 가까이 위치할수록 포획 밀도가 높았다. 또한 상하 위치도 중요한 변수로서 기주 작물 수관 부위에서 가장 높은 포획 밀도를 보였다. 이를 기준으로 황색 점착 트랩을 설치한 경우 전체 총채벌레 밀도의 약 1%를 유살하였다. 이러한 낮은 유살 능력을 높이기 위해 상용유인제를 황색트랩에 추가하였다. 집합페로몬 또는 식물 휘발성 유인제(4-methoxybenzaldehyde) 성분의 두 가지 상용유인제 추가 처리는 황색트랩 단독 처리에 비해 크게 유인력을 증가시키지 못하였다. 그러나 Y-튜브 실내 행동분석은 집합페로몬과 식물 휘발성 유인제(methyl isonicotinate)들이 각각 꽃노랑총채벌레에 대해서 높은 유인력을 가지고 있는 것을 확인하였다. 반면에 이들 유인물질 은 기주 고추 꽃보다 꽃노랑총채벌레에 대해서 상대적으로 낮은 유인력을 나타냈다. 이는 꽃이 없는 시설 대파(Allium fistulosum) 재배지에서는 상용유인제 추가 처리가 황색트랩 단독 처리보다 꽃노랑총채벌레에 대하여 높은 유인력을 가지는 것을 미뤄 이 곤충의 꽃에 대한 높은 선호성을 뒷받침하였다. 본 연구는 꽃노랑총채벌레에 사용되는 상용유인제들의 한계성을 지적하며 추후 고추 꽃을 중심으로 새로운 유인물질의 탐색에 대한 기초자료를 제공한다.

  • 노후 원전 해체의 경우 부지 특성 및 최종 상태 조사 보고서에 해당 부지내 잔존가능성이 있는 방사성 핵종 정보에 대한 내용을 포함하여야 한다. 미국 NRC의 경우 이에 해당하는 해체기술관련문서(DTBD)를 부지 특성 조사시에 부지이력조사(HSA)와 같이 사업자 측이 제출하도록 규제하고 있다. 또한 해체기술관련문서는 방사선학적 부지 조사와 해체완료계획서에 포함되어야 하는 내용으로써 부지 규제 해제와 재이용에 관해서 중요한 자료를 제공한다. 이 논문은 부지 별 잠재적 핵종에 대해 미국 원전의 해체 사례중 부지 특성 및 최종 상태조사 과정에서 결정하는 방법론을 분석하고 2017년 고리 1호기의 영구 운전정지 후 이루어질 해체 과정에 필수적인 규제 지침과 기술적 근거 수립에 도움이 되고자 한다.

  • 하수처리장의 방류수는 낙차를 이용하는 기존 발전 방식으로는 소수력발전에 대한 경제성이 없어 버려지는 물로 인식되어져 왔다. 국내 대다수의 하수처리장 방류수로는 2m 미만의 낙차를 형성하고 있고 유량이 지속적이며 변동이 크지 않다는 점을 고려할 때, 저낙차 조건에서도 안정적인 전력 생산과 효율을 유지할 수 있는 소수력 발전장치 개발이 시급히 요구된다. 본 논문은 저낙차의 유수 특성을 갖는 하수처리장 방류수로에 적용 가능한 일체형 소수력 발전장치의 개발을 완료하여 발전장치에 대한 성능 평가 및 결과를 분석하였다. 그리고 실제 적용을 위한 경제성과 활용방안을 제시하였다. 분석결과, 발전기 효율은 92%이며 전력량은 10kWh로서 경제성의 경우 B/C를 1.0 이상 확보할 수 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 특히, 일체형 발전장치의 운영수준을 정격출력의 80% 이상으로 유지할 경우 경제성 확보가 가능하여 23년차 이후에는 투자비를 회수하여 이익이 발생하는 것으로 확인하였다. 일체형 소수력 발전장치는 하수처리장의 방류수뿐만 아니라 이와 유사한 유수 특성을 갖는 시설에 확대 적용할 경우 긍정적인 효과가 기대된다.

  • This study was conducted to find optimum mixed sowing ratio of green manure crops to reduce the use of chemical fertilizer as well as to increase the crop yield potential which will foster the utilization of green manure crops in the upland field in view of environment friendly agriculture. According to the study, the mixed ratio, 50:50, of hairy vetch and green barley showed highest nitrogen production yield in the soil due to the relatively higher organic nitrogen supply from the hairy vetch plant as well as nitrogen fixation from the air rather than other mixed ratio. In the 50:50 mixed ratio of hairy vetch and green barely total nitrogen amount in the soil showed 17.2kg per 10a, but in the other treatment ratio such as 75:25, 25:75. total nitrogen fixation amount were 16.7, 16.9 respectively. We also conducted the experiment to compare the effect of the mixed sowing treatment of green manure crops on the production of corn cultivated as a succeeding plant of hairy vetch. According to the result, the mixed ratio, 50:50, of hairy vetch and green barley treatment showed highest yield potential of corn as 153kg per 10a in seed weight which is due to the relatively higher organic nitrogen supply from the hairy vetch plant as well as nitrogen fixation from the air rather than other mixed ratio. In the mixed sowing treatment of hairy vetch 100 and barley 0 ratio, the corn production showed 148kg per 10a which is 5kg lower than that of hairy vetch 50 and barley 50 ratio, but showed statistically no difference between those two treatment. Otherwise, different treatments, such as hairy vetch 75 and barley 25, 25 and 75, 0 and 100 showed statistically different each other. Therefore, it was concluded that green manure crops, such as hairy vetch, green barley and rye were very effective crops to increase the soil fertility and gave the positive effect to the crops to give vegetative and propagative growth condition and, in turn, increased the yield potential. We have to make policy to enhance the utility of green manure crops in the upland crops as well as faddy field for the soil fertility and crop yield production which will guarantee prominent quality of environment friendly agriculture products.
