  • A 1/21.6 scaled non-heating experimental facility was prepared utilizing the results of a scaling analysis to simulate the APR1400 reactor and insulation system. The behaviors of the air bubble-induced two-phase natural circulation flow in the insulation gap were observed, and the liquid mass flow rates driven by natural circulation loop were measured by varying the injected air flow rate and distribution. As the injected air flow rates increased, the natural circulation flow rates also increased. Both the longitudinal and the latitudinal distributions of the injected air affected the natural circulation flow rates, especially, the longitudinal effect is more larger.

  • The most components and piping of the secondary side of domestic nuclear power plants were manufactured carbon-steel and low-alloy steel. Flow accelerated corrosion leads to wall thinning (metal loss) of carbon steel components and piping exposed to the flowing water or wet steam of high temperature, pressure, and velocity. The feedwater heaters of many nuclear power plants have recently experienced sever wall thinning damage, which increases as operating time progress. Several nuclear power plants in Korea have also experienced wall thinning damage in the shell wall around the impingement baffle. This paper describes the comparisons between the numerical analysis results using the FLUENT code and the experimental results based on down-scaled experimental facility. The experiments were performed based on several types of impingement baffle plates which are installed in low pressure feedwater heater.

  • This paper describes the influence of nutrient salts eluted from the bottom of a closed water area where polluted sediment has been deposited by inflowing river water. The elution pattern was monitored at our experimental facility. Both the sediment pore water and water above the bottom were sampled using a dialyzer sampler (peeper). The pore water of the eutrophicated sediment contained a large amount of nutrient salts, and the effect of elution was confined to a limited area of the bottom surface. The nutrient concentration of the sediment pore water was closely related to both the water temperature and dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration. The eluted nutrients from the sediment provided a source for phytoplankton and algae growth. This experimental data indicated that the water quality of the surface was not directly connected to the eluted nutrient salts, while it was indirectly affected by the total ecosystem, including all the organisms within an area and their environment.

  • The Leaking Fuel Experiment test facility was designed to simulate the activity release from spent leaking fuel rods under steady state and transient conditions in the spent fuel pool. The experimental rig included an electrically heated fuel rod with different defects and a cooling system. The fission product transport was simulated by potassium-chloride. The conductivity changes of the water in the cooling system were measured to provide information about the amount of released solution. Defects of different sizes and positions were applied, together with a wide range of rod powers to simulate decay heat. The produced data can be used for predicting the activity release from leaking fuel under storage conditions and for the interpretation of fuel examination procedures.

  • Selective Production of Exotic Species is an innovative plant for advanced nuclear physic studies. A radioactive beam, generated by using an UCx target-ion source system, is ionized, selected and accelerated for experimental objects. Very high vacuum conditions and appropriate safety systems to storage exhaust gases are required to avoid radiological risk for operators and people. In this paper, Failure Mode, Effects, and Criticality Analysis of a preliminary design of high activity gas recovery system is performed by using a modified Fuzzy Risk Priority Number to rank the most critical components in terms of failures and human errors. Comparisons between fuzzy approach and classic application allow to show that Fuzzy Risk Priority Number is able to enhance the focus of risk assessments and to improve the safety of complex and innovative systems such as those under consideration.

  • In order to analyze thermal hydraulic phenomena during a DVI (Direct Vessel Injection) line break LOCA (Loss-of-Coolant Accident) in the APR1400 (Advanced Power Reactor 1400 MWe), we performed experimental studies with the SNUF (Seoul National University Facility), a reduced-height and reduce-pressure integral test loop with a scaled down APR1400. We performed experiments dealing with eight test cases under varied tests. As a result of the experiment, the primary system pressure, the coolant temperature, and the occurrence time of the downcomer seal clearing were affected significantly by the thermal power in the core and the SI flow rate. The break area played a dominant role in the vent of the steam. For our analytical investigation, we used the MARS code for simulation of the experiments to validate the calculation capability of the code. The results of the analysis showed good and sufficient agreement with the results of the experiment. However, the analysis revealed a weak capability in predicting the bypass flow of the SI water toward the broken DVI line, and it was insufficient to simulate the streamline contraction in the broken side. We, hence, need to improve the MARS code.

  • 위성용 RF 수동 소자에 대한 MP(multipactor) 현상과 그 검출 방법에 대한 연구를 수행하였으며, 본 연구에 사용된 RF 수동 소자는 S 대역 diplexer로, 이는 인터디지털 타입의 5단 chebyshev 응답특성을 갖는 두개의 대역통과필터로 구성되며 2.232 및 2.055 GHz 대역에서 2.7 %의 대역폭을 갖는 구조로 각각 설계되었다. MP 민감도 해석을 위해 diplexer에 대하여 3D 전자기 모델링을 수행하였으며, 이를 통하여 diplexer 구조적으로 multipactor에 대하여 가장 민감한 부분을 정의 하였고 이때의 MP 방전 현상이 나타나지 않는 최대 RF 입력전력을 규명하였다. 또한 KARI 자체 개발한 MP 민감도 시험 시설을 이용하여 QM용 diplexer에 대한 시험을 수행하였으며, 그 결과 CW 모드에서 43 dBm, 펄스 모드 시험에서 44 dBm의 RF 입력 전력에서 MP가 발생됨을 확인 하였다.

  • Objectives: This study was conducted to investigate the removal of high odor concentration from swine wastewater treatment facility by full scale biofilter using liquid with deodorant mixed with earthworm cast and distillery sludge. Methods: The supply of the culture liquid to the microorganism on the media in the biofilter increases the activity and growth of biomass. The experimental equipment was biofilter tower with treatment capacity of 90 m 3/min. The experimental conditions included gas flow of $60m^3/min$, retention time of 20 sec, and gas/liquid ratio of 67. Results: With changing season from winter to summer, the inlet odor concentration of ammonia increased from 2.5 ppm to 29 ppm, and of hydrogen sulfide from 21 ppm to 91 ppm, respectively. The odor treatment system with biofilter using the culture liquid was stable when the high loading rate increased and showed excellent removal grade with an average of 96.7% for ammonia, and an average of 93.7% for hydrogen sulfide. The pH and SCOD in the recirculating culture liquid near the bottom of the biofilter tower decreased with operation time, but its influence on the odor removal rate was negligible, because the organic matter (SCOD) was replaced by some culture liquid supplied 2-4 times per day. Conclusions: The biofilter using culture liquid could successfully remove high odor concentration which was generated from swine wastewater treatment facility.

  • 기존의 정수처리 방법으로는 제거되지 않는 물질이 발생함에 고도정수 처리 시설의 도입이 증가하고 있다. 그러나 오존을 이용한 고도정수처리 시설의 내부 방수 방식재는 오존의 산화력에 의해 열화되며 콘크리트까지 영향을 미쳐 내구성 저하의 원인이 된다. 본 연구에서는 내오존성 및 내화학성이 뛰어난 금속 패널을 기존의 시공법 보다 손쉬운 방법으로 시공하기 위한 방법으로 금속용사 공법을 이용하여 수처리 시설 콘크리트 구조물의 열화를 원천적으로 방지하기 위한 마감공법 개발 연구의 일원으로 용사금속 종류 및 피막의 표면처리 방법에 따른 내오존성 평가를 실시하였으며, 오존처리 후의 부착강도를 평가하였다. 실험결과 용사금속 Ti이 용사 후에도 내오존성이 뛰어난 것으로 나타났으며 표면처리 방법으로는 테프론계 봉공처리제를 사용하여 마감하는 것이 내오존성 및 부착성능 확보에 가장 적합한 방법이라 판단된다.

  • 미래형 서비스 실증을 위해서 실험자들에게 소프트웨어-정의 네트워킹(Software-Defined Networking: SDN)과 클라우드 컴퓨팅(Cloud Computing: CC) 기반으로 융합된 컴퓨팅/네트워킹 자원들을 유연하게 제공하는 통합된 시험/실증 환경의 중요성이 확산되고 있다. 이러한 추세에 맞춰서 OF@TEIN(OpenFlow @ Trans Eurasian Information Network) 시험/실증 환경에서는 국내외 다수 지역들에 가상화를 지원하는 융합형 자원인 SmartX Rack들을 설치하고 이들을 오픈플로우(OpenFlow) 기반의 SDN에 의해 연동하여 활용한다. 본 논문에서는 다지점에 설치된 오픈플로우 사이트들을 2계층 이더넷(Ethernet) 차원에서 연동할 때 원하는 토폴로지에 부합하도록 NVGRE(network virtualized generic route encapsulation) 터널링을 자동으로 설정하고 관제하는 관리도구를 소개한다. 제안한 관리 도구를 활용하면 운용자는 다수의 오픈플로우 사이트들간의 네트워크 연동을 신속하고 효율적으로 관리할 수 있고, 이와 동시에 실험자들은 원하는 가상화된 사용자 네트워크(virtual tenant network)를 최대한 자율적으로 구성하고 활용할 수 있다.
