본 논문에서는 water flow model의 개념을 적용한 문서영상 이진화 방법의 속도를 개선하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법은 문서영상에서 문자 주위를 관심영역(region of interest: ROI)으로 추출하고 3차원 영상지형에서 물이 뿌려지는 영역을 관심영역 이내로 제한한다. 국부 계곡에 누적되는 물의 양은 계곡의 깊이와 경사를 이용하여 자동으로 결정된다. 그리고 계곡의 최저 지점뿐만 아니라 그 주위에도 가중치를 부여하여 물을 누적함으로써 관심영역에 해당하는 영상지형에 물을 붓는 과정을 한번만 수행하여 충분한 양의 물이 계곡에 채워지도록 한다. 계곡에 형성된 연못의 깊이는 배경과 문자의 밝기 차에 따라 다양하므로 연못의 깊이를 기준으로 문자 분리를 위한 임계치를 적응적으로 결정한다. 실제 문서영상에 대한 실험에서 제안한 방법의 수행속도가 water flow model에 기반 한 이진화 방법과 비교하여 월등히 향상되었으며 이진화 품질도 매우 우수함을 보였다.

갈수량은 수자원의 개발 및 관리에 매우 중요한 인자중의 하나이다. 신뢰성 높은 갈수량을 측정하기 위해 한국수자원공사는 2000년도에 용담댐 시험유역에 5피트 규격의 파샬플륨을 설치하였다. 파샬플륨은 유량측정을 하기 위해 독특한 모양을 가지고 있으며, 부정확한 유량관측을 유발하는 퇴사문제를 거의 해결한 시설물이다. 본 연구에서는 3차원 CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) 모형으로 5가지 수위에 대해서 완전월류(free flow)시 파샬플륨의 유동을 해석하였다. CFD모형에 의해 산정된 결과와 ISO에 제시된 유량공식, USBR에 제시된 유량공식 및 수위-유량관계식으로 산정한 유량을 비교하였다. 그 결과 ISO와 USBR의 공식에 의해 산정된 유량은 거의 동일했으나, 3차원 CFD모형에 의한 유량은 경험공식에 의한 유량보다 9%정도 크게 나타났고 수위-유량관계식에 의한 유량은 경험공식에 의한 유량보다 16%정도 작게 나타났다.

The present study explored the way to desalinate seawater for agricultural irrigation using forward osmosis (FO) process using liquid fertilizer as draw solution. FO experiments were performed in a cross flow mode using flat sheet FO membrane. The effect of membrane orientation, flow rate, and draw solution concentration on the performance of forward osmosis was investigated by measuring water flux of forward osmosis membrane. The water flux when the draw solution was placed against the membrane active layer was lower than the water flux when the feed solution was placed against the membrane active layer. This results indicated that the decrease of effective osmotic pressure by dilutive internal concentration polarization was less than that by concentrative internal concentration polarization. Increasing flow rate from 66.7 to 133.1 $cm^3$/min resulted in increase of the water flux when the membrane active layer orient to draw solution and feed solution, respectively. The reduction of resistance to water flow increased water flux at higher flow rate. The water flux of FO membrane increased with increasing draw solution concentration from 10000 to 30000 mg/L. The water flux for $KH_2PO_4$ draw solution was similar to that for commercial fertilizer. Optimization of FO process would contribute to economically desalinate brackish water for agricultural use.

The effective water management in a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is one of the key strategies for improving cell performance and durability. In this work, an ex situ measurement was carried out to understand the water droplet behavior on the surface of gas diffusion layer (GDL) as a fundamental study for establishing novel water management. For that purpose, simplified cell including one rib and two flow channels was designed and fabricated. Using this ex situ device, the water droplet emergence through the GDL of the PEMFC was emulated to understand liquid water transport through the porous diffusion medium. Through the visualization experiment, the emergence and growth of water droplets at the channel/GDL interface are mainly observed with the surface characteristics of GDL (SGL 10BA, 24BA) and rib when the liquid water passes through the GDL and is expelled to the flow channel. It is expected that the results obtained from this study can contribute to the better understanding on the water droplet behavior (emergence and removal) in the flow channels of PEMFC.

상수도 관망은 국가 수도 시설의 주요한 구성 요소이지만 대부분이 지중에 매립되어 있어 배관의 노후화 정도 및 누수를 파악하기 어려우므로 유지관리 하기가 매우 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 관망에 설치된 다양한 센서 조합을 가정하여, 데이터 조합에 따른 관로 누수 판별 가능성을 검토하기 위하여 선형회귀분석, 뉴로퍼지 등의 인공지능 알고리즘을 통한 유량과 압력 예측을 실시하여 최적 알고리즘을 도출하였다. 공급압력 예측을 통한 누수판별의 경우 뉴로퍼지 알고리즘이 선형회귀분석에 비하여 우수하였다. 누수유량 예측에서는 뉴로퍼지를 이용한 유량예측이 우선 고려되어야 한다. 다만, 유량을 모사하기 힘든 경우에는 선형 알고리즘을 이용한 공급압력 예측이 이루어져야 할 것으로 사료 된다.

In the present study, the gas injection system based on air-water model was designed to investigate the flow characteristics of liquid phase. A PIV system was applied to analyze the flow pattern in a ladle which gas stated to rise upward from the bottom. Gas flow is one of most important factors which could feature a flow pattern in a gas injection system. As the gas injected into the liquid, the kinetic energy of bubble transfer to liquid phase and a strong circulation flow develops in the liquid phase. Such a flow in the liquid develops vortex and improve the mixing process. Due to the centrifugal force, circulation flow was well developed near both wall sides and upper region respectively. Increasing gas flow was helpful to remove dead zone but, weak flow zone still exists in spite of the increasement of gas flow rate.

A calculation model is developed to predict the transient free surface flow on the containment floor following a loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) of pressurized water reactors (PWR) for the use of debris transport evaluation. The model solves the two-dimensional Shallow Water Equation (SWE) using a finite volume method (FVM) with unstructured triangular meshes. The numerical scheme is based on a fully explicit predictor-corrector method to achieve a fast-running capability and numerical accuracy. The Harten-Lax-van Leer (HLL) scheme is used to reserve a shock-capturing capability in determining the convective flux term at the cell interface where the dry-to-wet changing proceeds. An experiment simulating a sudden break of a water reservoir with L-shape open channel is calculated for validation of the present model. It is shown that the present model agrees well with the experiment data, thus it can be justified for the free surface flow with accuracy. From the calculation of flow field over the simplified containment floor of APR1400, the important phenomena of free surface flow including propagations and interactions of waves generated by local water level distribution and reflection with a solid wall are found and the transient flow rates entering the Holdup Volume Tank (HVT) are obtained within a practical computational resource.

Recently, micro hydropower and it's useful utilization are taking a growing interest as a countermeasure of global worming by carbon dioxide and exhaustion of fossil fuel. The purpose of this study is to investigate the possibility of extracting micro hydropower wasted by a valve in water supply system using micro cross-flow hydraulic turbine. In order to fulfill the functions of controlling flow rate and pressure in substitute for the valve, air and water are supplied into an air suction hole which is installed on the side wall of micro cross-flow hydraulic turbine. The results show that in case of supplying a lot of air into the air suction hole, about 50% of flow rate and relatively high value of loss coefficient are controlled by the turbine. Moreover, including high possibility of applying the micro cross-flow turbine to water supply system, extended application of the turbine to the water discharge system of drainage and irrigation canal.

현재 상용화되어 있는 유량 측정 레이더 센서는 표면 유속을 이용하여 유량을 측정하는 방법을 사용한다. 이러한 방식으로는 표면 유속만으로 유량을 추정하는 것이기 때문에 단위 시간당 흐르는 물의 양을 정확하게 측정할 수 없다. 보다 정확한 측정을 위해서는 수위와 유속 정보 모두가 필요하며, 이에 따라 일부 상용 계측기는 수위와 유속을 각각 측정하는 두 개의 센서를 이용하여 유량을 산정하는 방식을 채택하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 하나의 FMCW 레이다 센서를 이용하여 수위와 유속을 동시에 측정할 수 있는 방법에 대하여 제안하고, 이를 위한 FMCW 레이다 송신 파형을 설계한다. 또한, 송신 파형을 기반으로 수신 신호를 모델링하여 수위 및 유속 측정 시 발생할 수 있는 문제점들에 대해 고찰하고자 한다.

This study analysed overall heat transfer coefficient, heat transmission, and rate of indoor air heating provided by water curtain in order to determine the heat transfer characteristic of double-layered greenhouse equipped with a water curtain system. The air temperatures between the inner and outer layers were determined by the water flow rate and inlet water temperature. Higher water flow rate and inlet water temperature resulted in the increased overall heat transfer coefficient between indoor greenhouse air and water curtain. However, it was found that with higher levels of water flow rate and inlet water temperature, indoor overall heat transfer coefficient was converged about $10W{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}^oC^{-1}$. The low correlation of overall heat transfer coefficient between water curtain and air within double layers was likely because the combination of greenhouse shape, wind speed and outdoor air temperature as well as water curtain affected the heat transfer characteristics. As water flow rate and inlet water temperature increased, the heat transferred into the greenhouse by water curtain also tend to rise. However it was demonstrated that the rate of heat transmission from water curtain into greenhouse with water curtain system using underground water was accounted for 22% to 28% for total heat lost by water curtain. The results of this study which quantify heat transfer coefficient and net heat transfer from water curtain may be a good reference for economical design of water curtain system.
