계자코일에 흐르는 교류전류로 전자기장을 유도하고, 결함에 의하여 누설되는 자속을 간극을 갖는 헤드로 측정하여 결함을 검출하는 새로운 비파괴탐상장치를 구성하였다. 이 탑상장치는 비접촉으로 강자성체의 구조물 요소에 존재하는 표면결항을 검출하고, 그 크기를 평가하는데 적용할 수 있다. 본 논문은 강자성체에 도입한 2차원 표면결함에 적용하여 결함의 평가를 실시하였다. 또한 측정주파수와 lift-off가 이들 평가에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 결함은 전압 분포에서 최대치로 검출할 수 있고, 이 최대전압의 변화는 결함의 깊이가 증가함에 따라 증가한다. 결함의 최대전압은 주파수와 lift-off 의 영향을 받지만, 작은 깊이의 결함은 깊이와 전압이$(V_0/V_{ave})$의 관계로부터 선형적으로 예측할 수 있다.

The transient fields generated during switching operations in a Gas Insulated Substation (GIS) are associated with high frequency components in the order of few tens of MHz. These transient fields leak into the external environment of the gas-insulated equipment and can interfere with the nearby electronics. Measurements of the transient fields are thus required to characterise the interference caused by switching phenomena in such substations. In view of the above, E-field emission measurement during a switching operation has been carried out for a 245 kV GIS model, using a resonant dipole antenna and D-dot sensor. The characteristics of the E-fields i.e., frequency spectra and their levels have been analysed and are reported in the paper. Suitability of the measurements has been confirmed by comparing frequency spectra of the measured and computed transient fields.

Accidental oil and gas leak is a critical concern for the offshore industry because it can lead to severe consequences and as a result, it is imperative to evaluate the probabilities of occurrence of the consequences of the leakage in order to assess the risk. Event Tree Analysis (ETA) is a technique to identify the consequences that can result from the occurrence of a hazardous event. The probability of occurrence of the consequences is evaluated by the ETA, based on the failure probabilities of the sequential events. Conventional ETA deals with events with crisp failure probabilities. In offshore applications, it is often difficult to arrive at a single probability measure due to lack of data or imprecision in data. In such a scenario, fuzzy set theory can be applied to handle imprecision and data uncertainty. This paper presents fuzzy ETA (FETA) methodology to compute the probability of the outcomes initiated due to oil/gas leak in an actual offshore-onshore installation. Post FETA, sensitivity analysis by Fuzzy Weighted Index (FWI) method is performed to find the event that has the maximum contribution to the severe sequences. It is found that events of 'ignition', spreading of fire to 'equipment' and 'other areas' are the highest contributors to the severe consequences, followed by failure of 'leak detection' and 'fire detection' and 'fire water not being effective'. It is also found that the frequency of severe consequences that are catastrophic in nature obtained by ETA is one order less than that obtained by FETA, thereby implying that in ETA, the uncertainty does not propagate through the event tree. The ranking of severe sequences based on their probability, however, are identical in both ETA and FETA.

화학물질을 취급하는 중 소업체의 경우 누출 사고 시 자동화 시스템이 갖춰진 안전장치에 의한 방재체계가 아닌 근로자에 의한 긴급 방재가 주로 이루어져 인명 환경피해 등의 발생 가능성이 높다. 본 연구는 이러한 한계점을 개선하기 위해 화학물질 취급공정 중 누출 사고 발생 빈도에 따라 누출 예상지점에 선별적으로 쉽게 탈 부착이 가능한 긴급 확산방재시스템에 대해 연구하였다. 이를 통해 사고대응이 상대적으로 취약한 중소기업의 화학사고를 시스템적으로 예방하여 화학물질 누출사고에 의한 인명, 환경피해를 방지할 수 있다.

A probabilistic assessment code, PRO-LOCA ver. 3.7 which was developed in an international co-operative research program, PARTRIDGE was evaluated by conducting sensitivity analysis. The effect of some variables such as simulation methods (adaptive sampling, iteration numbers, weld residual stress model), crack features(Poisson's arrival rate, maximum numbers of cracks, initial flaw size, fabrication flaws), operating and loading conditions(temperature, primary bending stress, earthquake strength and frequency), and inspection model(inspection intervals, detectable leak rate) on the failure probabilities of a surge line nozzle was investigated. The results of sensitivity analysis shows the remaining problems of the PRO-LOCA code such as the instability of adaptive sampling and unexpected trend of failure probabilities at an early stage.

As the chemical industry becomes more advanced, the awareness of chemical accidents is rising, and legal systems for chemical safety management are strengthened. In this study, quantitative risk assessment of liquid chlorine leak was conducted. Risk assessment was performed in the order of frequency analysis, consequence analysis, and risk calculation. The individual risk was presented in the form of contour lines. The social risk was expressed by the FN curve. The risk of day and night was in an unacceptable area, so it was required to mitigate risk. Therefore in-building, which could trap the pool, was selected as a risk mitigation measure. As a result of the cost benefit analysis, it was concluded that this measure should be reasonably implemented.

본 연구에서는 이미 개발되어 있는 부식결함의 잔존강도를 평가식을 이용하여 파단, 대누출, 소누출의 손상모드 예측하는 절차를 제시하였다. 또한 이 손상모드에 따라 손상확률을 예측할 수 있는 방법을 제시하고 여기에 부식속도 정보를 결합하면 일정기간 경과 후 손상확률도 예측할 수 있음을 보였다. 이 결과는 노후배관의 수명 또는 교체주기의 예측에 매우 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것이라 판단된다.

fatigue life and nondestructive evaluation were examined experimentally using surface crack specimen and compact tension specimen of 5083 aluminium alloy. Acoustic emission signals emanated during failure of aluminum alloys has been the subject of numerous investigations. Possible sources of AE during deformation have been suggested as the dislocations, fracture of brittle particles and debonding of these particles from the alloy matrix. Fatigue life and penetration behavior of long surface crack can be evaluated quantitatively using K values proposed by authors. The influence of stress ratio on the frequency characteristics of AE signals were investigated.

This study performed qualitative and quantitative risk assessment of equipment for evaluating the protocol of hydrogen refueling stations and suggested measures to improve safety. Hazard and operability study was performed for qualitative risk assessment, and Hy-KoRAM was used for quantitative risk assessment. Through a qualitative risk assessment, additional ventilation devices were installed, simultaneous venting of the storage container was prohibited, and the number of repeated refilling of the evaluation equipment was identified to manage the number of fillings of the container. Through quantitative risk assessment, the area around the device was set as a restricted area when evaluating the station, and measures were suggested to reduce the frequency of accidents.

국내 냉동제조시설에서 암모니아 누출사고가 여전히 발생하고 있음을 볼 수가 있다. 암모니아는 가연성가스 및 독성가스이므로 사고 발생할 때 인체와 생태계에 큰 피해를 일으킬 수 있다. 국내 냉동제조시설의 암모니아 사고유형을 파악한 후 사고시나리오를 선정하여 피해범위를 산정하고 사고 빈도와 위험도를 분석하여 사고 피해를 최소화하는 대책 수립이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 정량적 위험성 평가(QRA: quantitative risk assessment)의 분석 방법에 따라 암모니아 냉동시스템의 리시버 탱크에 대한 위험도를 분석하였다. 시나리오 분석 조건은 화학물질관리법에서 정하는 '사고시나리오 선정에 관한 기술지침' 및 미국 화학공정안전센터(CCPS: center for chemical process safety)의 가이드라인에 따라 정하였다. DVN사의 SAFETI 프로그램을 활용하여 시나리오에서 선정된 모든 사고 영향범위를 산정하고 빈도 분석을 통하여 리시버 탱크에 대한 위험도를 도출하였다. 빈도 값은 사건수 분석(ETA: event tree analysis)기법과 Part count 기법을 활용하였다. 연구 결과 암모니아 냉동시스템의 개인적 위험도는 7.71E-04/yr으로 도출되었으며, 사회적 위험도 1.17E-03/yr으로 도출되었다. 도출된 위험도는 국제 화재방지협회 (NFPA: national fire protection association)의 ALARP (as low as reasonably practicable) 범위를 적용하여 위험도의 적합성을 확인하였으며, 본 연구에서 제안한 위험도 산정 방법이 사고 피해 최소화 방안을 모색하는데 활용된다면 보다 좋은 결과가 도출될 것으로 판단된다.
