Unsteady thermal processes in storage containers with spent nuclear fuel were modeled. The daily fluctuations of outer ambient temperatures were taken into account. The modeling approach, which is based on the solving of conjugate and inverse heat transfer problems, was verified by comparison of measured and calculated temperatures in outer channels. The time delays in the reaching of maximal temperatures for each spent fuel assembly were calculated. Results of numerical investigations show that daily fluctuation of outer temperatures does not have a large influence on the maximal temperatures of stored spent fuel, so that fluctuation can be neglected and only daily average temperature should be considered for safety estimation using the "best estimation" approach.

There are a number of small scale application fields of ozone, such as food conservation and/or storage in refrigerators, containers and storage rooms, deodorization in the production and living areas, protection against biohazards, bleaching of fabrics, etc. For these applications, miniaturization, ozone controllability and costdown of the ozonizer are the most essential points, whereas power efficiency is the most imporant factor in the case of a large scale ozonizer used in various industrial applications. It has been developed a novel sawtooth-to-cylinder type micro-ozonizer meeting above the three points by using a negative pulse corona discharge. As a result of the observations of pulse coronas affecting ozone generation, it is found that the maximum ozone concentration is generated at the pulse streamer coronas in both positive and negative case. The ozone concentration (20ppm/2l/min) generated by the negative pulse corona is about 2 times higher than that of the positive pulse corona, and could be controllable linearly by adjusting the dc input voltage of the [supply-inth ] cinventional small scale ozonizers. As a result, the present ozonizer is also very good to be used as a micro-ozonizer.

In this paper, we address the numerical investigation on the effect of liquid compressibility onto the natural frequency of liquid-filled containers. Traditionally the liquid motion has been treated as an ideal fluid motion. However, from the numerical experiments for the axisymmetrical free-vibration of cylindrical liquid-storage tanks, we found that the relative difference in natural frequencies between ideal and compressible motions becomes remarkable, as the slenderness of tank or the relative liquid-fill height becomes larger. Therefore, in such cases of dynamic systems, the liquid compressibility becomes an important parameter, for the accurate vibration analysis. For the free-vibration analysis of compressible liquid-structure interaction we employed the coupled finite element formulation expressed in terms of the acoustic wave pressure and the structure deformation.

이적작업은 적하작업과 반출작업을 신속하게 처리하기 위해 자동화 컨테이너 터미널에서 중요하게 고려하는 운영 전략들 중의 하나이다. 이는 ATC(Automated Transfer Crane)의 운반시간과 재취급 작업시간을 줄이기 위해 장치장 블록에 산적되어 있는 컨테이너들을 재배치하는 작업이다. 본 논문은 가능한 컨테이너 이동을 최소화하면서 한 수직형 블록 내에 장치된 컨테이너들의 배치 형태를 바람직한 배치 형태로 전환시키기 위한 이적계획 문제를 다룬다. 이 문제는 선후관계를 가지는 2개의 하위 문제 즉, 장치위치 할당문제와 장비 작업순서 문제로 분할된다. 장치위치 할당문제는 운반시간의 관점에서 현재 장치되어 있는 컨테이너들 중에서 어떤 컨테이너를 어느 베이에 옮길 것인가를 결정한다. 이의 결과를 가지고 장비 작업순서 문제는 장치 공간의 제약을 고려하여 ATC의 이동시간을 최소화하는 작업순서를 정한다. 본 연구에서는 정수계획법과 동적계획법을 이용하여 각 하위문제를 모형화 하였다. 제안된 모형을 이용하여 이적계획 과정을 설명하기 위한 예제를 제시하였다.

Recently, research and commercialization related to the field of cell-based therapeutic drug development has been actively conducted. In order to maintain cell viability and prevent contamination, refrigeration preservation devices, such as CRF (controlled rate freezer) or vapor type LN2 tanks have been developed. On the other hand, the storage container for liquid nitrogen tanks currently on sale minimizes the flow structure to prevent structural defects when stored in a liquid nitrogen tank having a high thermal conductivity than vapor nitrogen. If the cell-based treatment drug is stored in the gaseous LN2 tank as it is, the cell survival after thawing is greatly reduced. It was estimated that the existing storage container structure was a factor that prevented the rapid entry and circulation of gaseous nitrogen into the container. Therefore, this study intends to propose a new supercellular storage container model that can maintain the mechanical strength while maximizing the fluid flow structure. To this end, we estimated that the structural change of the storage container effects on the equivalent stress formed around the through-holes of them when exposed to a cryogenic environment using thermal-structural coupled field analysis. As a result of storage experiments in the gas phase tank of the cell-based therapeutic agent using the developed storage container, it was confirmed that the cell growth rate was improved from 66% to 77%, which satisfied the transportation standards of the FDA(Food and Drug Administration) cell-based therapeutic agent.

As the management plan for domestic spent nuclear fuel is delayed, the storage of the operating nuclear power plant is approaching saturation, and the Kori 1 Unit that has reached its end of operation life is preparing for the dismantling plan. The first stage of dismantling is the transfer of spent nuclear fuel stored in storage at plants. The spent fuel management process leads to temporary storage, interim storage, reprocessing and permanent disposal. In this paper, the technical issues to be considered when transporting spent fuel in this process are summarized. The spent fuels are treated as high-level radioactive waste and strictly managed according to international regulations. A series of integrity tests are performed to demonstrate that spent fuel can be safely stored for decades in a dry environment before being transferred to an intermediate storage facility. The safety of spent fuel transport container must be demonstrated under normal transport conditions and virtual accident conditions. IAEA international standards are commonly applied to the design of transport containers, licensing regulations and transport regulations worldwide. In addition, each country operates a physical protection system to reduce and respond to the threat of radioactive terrorism.

장치공간 소요량은 컨테이너터미널의 장치능력을 결정짓는 매우 중요한 의사결정 변수이다. 일반적으로 장치공간 소요량은 모선의 배선간격, 장치허용기간, 본선작업시간 등 여러 요인들에 좌우된다. 그러나 지금까지는 이들 요인이 확정적이라는 가정 하에 다양한 방법들을 장치공간 소요량 산정에 적용해왔다. 본 연구는 본선작업 물량이 확률적인 것으로 가정하고 요구된 서비스수준을 만족시키는 장치공간 소요량의 산정 방법을 제시했다. 시뮬레이션을 이용한 수치실험은 제시된 방법이 다른 방법들에 비해 확률적 상황에서 더욱 정확한 장치공간 소요량을 산정할 수 있음을 보여주었다.

발효식품 담금 용기로 사용되고 있는 유리, polypropylene(PP), polyethylene terephthalate(PET), 스테인레스 용기, 옹기에 고추장을 담아 $30^{\circ}C$에서 4개월 동안 발효하는 동안 물리적, 화학적, 미생물적인 품질변화를 측정하여 담금 용기의 효과를 비교 평가하였다. 높은 기공성을 가진 옹기는 다른 용기에 비해 전체 발효기간에서 높은 호기성 세균수, 젖산균수, 효모수를 보여서 가장 왕성한 발효진행을 보였으며, 이와함께 높은 protease 활성을 유지시키고, 아미노태 질소와 유리 아미노산을 생산하였다. 아울러 옹기에 담금 한 고추장에서는 높은 총산함량과 낮은 pH를 얻게 하였으며, 환원당도 많이 생성시켰다. 이러한 변화는 발효 $2{\sim}3$개월에 완성되어졌다. 하지만 높은 기공성에도 불구하고 옹기에서 발효된 고추장은 타용기구에 비해서 수분손실과 염도상승은 현저하지 않았는데, 이는 시간의 경과에 따라 옹기벽면에서의 기공이 고추장 성분에 의하여 일부 닫혀짐에 의한 것으로 해석된다. 이러한 성분변화의 결과로 인하여 옹기에서 발효된 고추장은 관능적인 품질에서 타 용기처리구에 비해 유의적으로 우수하였다.

리눅스 Cgroups은 컨테이너 기반 클라우드 서비스 구축에서 각 컨테이너 별 시스템 자원을 할당하기 위한 핵심적인 역할을 담당하고 있다. 특히 입출력 자원의 경우 리눅스 Cgroups은 컨테이너의 가중치에 따라 입출력 대역폭을 분배하는 기법을 지원하고 있다. 그러나 성능 분석 결과에 따르면 현재 리눅스 Cgroups의 입출력 대역폭 분배 기법은 NVMe SSD와 같은 고성능 저장장치를 사용할 경우 입출력 성능이 크게 저하된다는 한계점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 리눅스 Cgroups을 위한 새로운 피드백 기반의 동적 대역폭 분배 기법을 제안하고자 한다. 제안하는 기법은 가중치에 따라 입출력 크레딧을 분배하며 고성능 저장장치의 성능 변화를 동적으로 반영해 입출력 크레딧을 계산함으로써 저장장치의 성능 저하를 최소화한다. 제안된 기법은 리눅스 커널 5.3에 구현되었으며 성능 평가 결과 정확한 입출력 대역폭 분배를 수행할 뿐만 아니라 기존 기법에 비해 최대 2배 높은 입출력 성능을 보여주었다.

Major factors in reducing the stacking strength of corrugated fiberboard boxes in cold storage or transport conditions are high relative humidity, causing elevated moisture absorption by the boxes. The bottom boxes in a stack will deform to the critical deflection causing agricultural products damage there, and eventually additional deflection will cause box collapse and finally toppling of the stack. The study was conducted to determine the water absorption characteristics and the compressive strength of the corrugated fiberboard boxes being widely used in packaging agricultural products in Korea. The sample boxes for the study were selected from the regular slotted containers (RSC) types, and one was the box used in apple packaging (Box A), another one was the box used in pear packaging (Box B). The corrugated shipping containers were made from a large portion of recycled fibers in Korea, and comparing with Box B, Box A was fabricated from fiberboard which contained more percentage of old corrugated containers (OCC) imported from foreign countries than domestic waste paper. The results obtained from the study were summarized as follows ; 1. Equilibrium moisture content (EMC) of the sample boxes was established after about 20 hours, and the EMC by absorption was lower than that by desorption. The EMC increased with the increasing of relative humidity and with the decreasing of temperature, and the rate of increasing was much higher above the relative humidity of 50%. 2. The maximum compressive strength of Box A was about 100 kgf greater than that of Box B on the same enviromental conditions. The strength of the sample boxes decreased rapidly with the increasing of relative humidity. The effect of relative humidity on the strength was a little higher than that of temperature. 3. As the applied load was progressively increased and a level was reached, the vertical side panels ($L{\times}D$) deflected laterally inwards or outwards. The panels deflected laterally inwards at higher relative humidity. 4. The maximum compressive deflection ratio and the critical deflection ratio of the sample boxes were increased linearly with the increasing of relative hunidity, but trends for its ratios showed inconsistant response to temperature.
