The morphology, crystal structure and size of aerosol nanoparticles generated by erosion of electrodes made of different materials (titanium, copper and aluminum) in a multi-spark discharge generator were investigated. The aerosol nanoparticle synthesis was carried out in air atmosphere at a capacitor stored energy of 6 J, a repetition rate of discharge of 0.5 Hz and a gas flow velocity of 5.4 m/s. The aerosol nanoparticles were generated in the form of oxides and had various morphologies: agglomerates of primary particles of TiO2 and Al2O3 or aggregates of primary particles of Cu2O. The average size of the primary nanoparticles ranged between 6.3 and 7.4 nm for the three substances studied. The average size of the agglomerates and aggregates varied in a wide interval from 24.6 nm for Cu2O to 46.1 nm for Al2O3.

The triboelectric property of a material is important to improve an efficiency of triboelectric generator(TEG) in energy harvesting from an ambient energy. In this study, we have studied the TEG property of a semicon-ducting SnO2 which has yet to be explored so far. As a counter triboelectric material, PET and glass are used. Verticalcontact mode is utilized to evaluate the TEG efficiency. SnO2 thin film is deposited by atomic layer deposition on bareSi wafer for various thicknesses from 5.2 nm to 34.6 nm, where the TEG output is increased from 13.9V to 73.5V. Tri-boelectric series are determined by comparing the polarity of output voltage of 2 samples among SnO2, PET, and glass.In conclusion, SnO2, as an intrinsic n-type material, has the most strong tendency to be positive side to lose the electronand PET has the most strong tendency to be negative side to get the electron, and glass to be between them. Therefore,the SnO2-PET combination shows the highest TEG efficiency.

The results of performance evaluation of the generator are as follows. The average source level of the generator measured by a step of 15°in horizontal (0 to 360。, 25 points) was 185.2 (SD (standard deviation): 2.3) dB (re 1µPa at 1 m). The maximum and minimum source levels were appeared at the frequency range of 2.5 to 5.0 kHz and around 100 kHz, respectively. The average source levels at 0°, 90。, 180。and 270° were 162.9 (SD: 10.6), 168.4 (SD: 10.0), 162.1 (SD: 9.1) and 166.5 (SD: 11.1) dB (re 1µPa at 1 m). The average source level measured by a step of 30° in vertical was 184.9 (SD: 2.2) dB (re 1µPa at 1 m). The relative maximum variation width of the source levels in horizontal and in vertical measurement were less than 7.0 dB and 1.0 dB, respectively.

The supercritical carbon dioxide Brayton cycle(S-CO2) is one of promising alternatives as a power conversion system of the sodium-cooled fast reactor due to higher cycle efficiency and less reactive working fluid to sodium, compared to the steam Rankine cycle. In a S-CO2 Brayton cycle, turbine, compressors and generator are coupled with a same axis and their rotating speeds are variable in accordance with electrical outputs. However, to synchronize the cycle with a electrical grid, the electrical output of the cycle must has the same frequency with the electrical grid regardless of amount of the turbine output. To deal with this problem, several methods were proposed but each method still has their own weaknesses. In this paper, a new idea will be presented. The idea that the generator with the two reverse rotors are introduced into S-CO2 Brayton cycle and it aims to produce a full range of electricity at a fixed frequency with high efficiency.

Over the past few decades, high-nitrogen austenitic steels have steadily received greater attention since they provide a unique combination of high strength and ductility, good corrosion resistance, and non-magnetic properties. Recently, highnitrogen 18Mn-18Cr austenitic steels with enhanced strength have been developed and widely used for generator retaining rings in order to prevent the copper wiring from being displaced by the centrifugal forces occurring during high-speed rotation. The high-nitrogen austenitic steels for generator retaining ring should be expanded at room temperature and then stress relief annealed at around 400˚C to achieve the required mechanical properties. In this study, four kinds of high-nitrogen 18Mn-18Cr austenitic steels with different nitrogen content were fabricated by using a pressurized vacuum induction melting furnace, and then the effects of nitrogen content, cold working, and stress relieving on tensile properties were investigated. The yield and tensile strengths increased proportionally with increasing nitrogen content and cold working, and they further increased after stress relieving treatment. Based on these results, a semi-empirical equation was proposed to predict the tensile strength of highnitrogen 18Mn-18Cr austenitic steels for generator retaining rings. It will be a useful for the effective fabrication of high-nitrogen 18Mn-18Cr austenitic steels for generator retaining rings with the required tensile properties.

Recently, A N2 gas generator has become a very popular issue in application to semiconductor production process. An experimental study has been carried out to investigate the production performance as a N2 purity and production of N2 gas generator. The N2 gas generator used a small size system with two adsorption towers and an air compressor as flow rate 20 m3/h. The N2 gas generator system size is width 2270 mm, length 850 mm and height 2135mm. An experimental data has been measured as the variation of a adsorption temperature, adsorption pressure and adsorption time. The results indicate that the N2 gas production increase in case of decreasing adsorption temperature, increasing adsorption pressure and decreasing adsorption time. The N2 purity is highest value of 99.93% when the governor orifice diameter is 0.5 mm.

An Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) installed in a nuclear power plant is the primary power source, supplying AC power to Class 1E power systems when the main turbine generator and offsite power source are not available. Thus, reliability of the EGD is essential for plant safety and availability. In this paper, the EDG is selected for a Long Term Asset Management (LTAM) strategy and the results are summarized briefly. The LTAM strategy is intended to provide an effective long-term planning tool for minimizing unplanned capability loss and then optimizing maintenance programs and capital investments consistent with plant safety and an identified plant operating strategy. Such an operating strategy might include license renewal or retaining the option for license renewal.

An emergency diesel generator(EDG) manufactured by a French company Wartsila SACM is a tandem type engine and consisted of two 10 cylindered diesel engines on each side. The maintenance manual provided by the manufacturer recommends that engine bearing be inspected every 15 years. However, it is difficult to inspect them because the manhole located in the lower compartment of the engine is too small for maintenance worker to access engine internals. Furthermore, the EDG should be disassembled and then overturned to inspect bearings unlike other EDG type. Such process will take longer period time than ordinary maintenance period. So it is not possible to inspect the main engine bearing and crank shaft during a routine or scheduled maintenance. In this paper, five methods are proposed and estimated to resolve the problem and the optimal maintenance method is chosen among them. The proposed optimal maintenance plan makes it possible to perform proper maintenance during regular maintenance period and to lower maintenance cost considerably.

교량, 항만 및 각종 구조물과 산업설비에 대한 설계는 주로 결정론적 해석방법(Deterministic Analysis)에 의해 수행되고 있다. 그러나 구조물에 내재된 확률변수의 불확실성에 대한 영향을 보다 명확하게 평가할 뿐만 아니라 경제적인 설계를 위해서는 보다 개선된 평가방안이 요구된다. 이 연구에서는 터빈발전기 기초를 대상으로 합리적인 설계를 위해 확률유한요소법을 이용한 구조신뢰성해석을 수행하였다. 이를 위해 확률유한요소법을 신뢰성이론에 적합하도록 정식화하였으며, 대상 구조물의 부재강성 및 지진하중 등을 확률변수로 고려하여 동적응답해석 및 구조신뢰성해석을 효율적으로 수행할 수 있는 개선된 해석프로그램을 작성하였다. 작성된 해석프로그램을 이용하여 주요부재의 변위 및 부재력 응답에 대한 분산특성을 검토하였다. 아울러, 구조신뢰성해석에 따른 신뢰성지수 및 파괴확률을 제시함으로써, 대상 구조물의 구조 안전성을 정량적으로 평가하였다. 이 연구결과는 향후, 터빈발전기 기초의 개선된 설계방안을 설정함에 있어 기초자료를 제공할 것으로 기대된다.
