Currently as due to the rapid development of industry and increase in population we meet serious problems concerning the shortage and pollution of water. In the country many experts predict a shortage of water approaching 450 million tons by the year 2006. To cope with this serious problem it is necessary to construct desalination plants. In the adoption of a desalination system the most important factor is the cost of fresh water production,. In general LNG is stored in a tank as a liquid state below $-162^{\circ}C$. When it is serviced, however the LNG absorbs energy from a heat source and transforms to a high pressure gaseous state. During this process a huge amount of cold energy accumulated in cooling LNG is wasted. This wasted cold energy can be utilized to produce fresh water by using a sea water freezing desalination system. In order to develop a sea water freezing desalination system and to establish its design technique qualitative and quantitative data regarding the freezing behavior of sea water is required in advance, The goals of this study are to reveal the freezing behavior of sea water is required in advance. The goals of this study are to reveal the freezing mechanisms of sea water to measure the freezing rate and to investigate the freezing heat-transfer characteristics,. The experimental results will provide a general understanding of sea water freezing behavior in a rectangular vessel cooled from above.

The most important factor for the desalination system is the fresh water production cost dependent upon the possible energy source which should be obtained easily and with low price. Recently in Korea the demand of LNG, as a cheap and clean energy which does not cause an environmental problem, has sharply been increased. In general, LNG is storaged in a tank as a liquid state below -162 'C. When it is serviced, however, the LNG absorbs energy from a heating source and transforms to the gaseous state with high pressure. During this process a huge amount of cold energy accumulated in LNG is wasted. This waste cold energy can be utilized for producing fresh water from sea water using a sea water freezing desalination system. In order to develop a sea water freezing desalination system and to establish its design technique, a qualitative and quantitative data regarding the freezing behavior of sea water is needed in advance. The goal of this study, therefore, are to reveal the freezing mechanism of sea water, to measure the freezing rate, and to investigate the freezing heat-transfer characteristics. The experimental results help to provide a general understanding of the sea water freezing behavior in a Rectangular vessel cooled from below.

This study was experimentally performed to investigate sea water freezing behavior along parallel cooled plate with bubbly flow The experiments were carried out for a variety of parameter, such as sea water velocity, air-bubble flow rate, and cooled-plate temperature. The shape of freezing layer, freezing rate and salinity of frozen layer were observed and measured. It was found that the experimental parameters gave a great influence on the freezing rate and the salinity of the frozen layer.

This study was experimentally performed to investigate freezing behavior of sea water along horizontal cooled a circular tube with bubbly flow. The experiments were carried out for a variety of parameter, such as sea water velocity, air-bubble flow rate, and cooled-tube temperature. The shape of freezing layer, freezing rate and salinity of frozen layer were observed and measured. And the flow patterns around cooled tube were visualized using the PIV to analyze the relationship between the flow structure and the freezing characteristics. It was found that the experimental parameters gave a great influence on the freezing rate and the salinity of the frozen layer.

일반적으로 철근콘크리트 건축물은 외부의 기후에 노출되어 있어 겨울에서 이른 봄까지 동결과 융해의 반복적인 작용에 영향을 받는다. 이러한 동결융해 작용은 콘크리트의 균열을 발생시키거나 콘크리트 표면의 박리를 일으켜 내구성 저하의 원인이 된다$^{1),2)}$. 본 연구에서는 철근콘크리트보의 동결융해 경험에 따른 반복하중 하에서의 이력 특성의 평가를 위해 동결융해 사이클을 변수로 하여 철근콘크리트보의 반복하중 가력시 거동을 비교하고자 6개의 시험체를 제작, 실험하였다. 실험결과를 통해 동결 융해에 노출되어있는 철근콘크리트보의 반복하중하의 이력특성을 평가하는데 기초적인 자료를 제시하고자 하였다.

본 논문에서는 계절적 환경변화로 인한 동결-융해 반복과정에 노출되는 옹벽의 시간 의존적 거동에 대한 수치 해석 연구 내용을 다루었다. 이를 위해 먼저 동결-융해 반복과정에 노출되는 옹벽에 대한 열-수리-응력 연계해석 기반의 모델링 기법을 정립하였으며 이러한 모델링 기법을 토대로 다양한 온도변화 조건에 대한 매개변수 연구를 수행하였다. 그 결과 다양한 온도변화 특성 중 옹벽의 거동에 미치는 주된 영향인자는 계절적 평균동결온도와 반복회수인 것으로 나타났다. 반면 동결온도의 지속시간에 대한 영향을 검토한 결과 벽체변위 및 수평토압에 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 검토되었다. 한편, 벽체에 작용하는 수평토압은 동결-융해 작용에 의한 영향을 거의 받지 않는 것으로 검토되어 결국 동결-융해로 인한 벽체 변위 증가 현상은 토압 증가에 그 원인을 찾기 보다는 동결-융해 현상으로 인한 재료적 열화 현상에 그 원인을 찾아야 할 것으로 검토되었다.

Unconfined compression test (UCT) is widely conducted in laboratories to evaluate the mechanical behavior of frozen soils. However, its results are sensitive to the initial conditions of sample creation by freezing as well as the end-surface conditions during loading of the specimen into the apparatus for testing. This work compared ice samples prepared by three-dimensional and one-dimensional freezing. The latter created more-homogenous ice samples containing fewer entrapped air bubbles or air nuclei, leading to relatively stable UCT results. Three end-surface conditions were compared for UCT on ice specimens made by one-dimensional freezing. Steel disc cap with embedded rubber was found most appropriate for UCT. Three frozen materials (ice, frozen sand, and frozen silt) showed different failure patterns, which were classified as brittle failure and ductile failure. Ice and frozen sand showed strain-softening, while frozen silt showed strain-hardening. Subsequent investigation considered the influence of fines content on the unconfined compression behavior of frozen soil mixtures with fines contents of 0-100%. The mixtures showed a brittle-to-ductile transition of failure patterns at 10%-20% fines content.
