본 연구는 대기 중 장기간 노출로 인해 열화된 Ni-rich NCM811(LiNi₀.₈Co₀.₁Mn₀.₁O₂) 양극 소재의 계면 저항 증가 및 전기화학적 성능 저하 문제를 해결하기 위해, 물리적 열처리 방법을 제안하였다. NCM811 양극 소재는 대기 중 수분 및 이산화탄소와의 반응에 의해 표면에 불순물이 형성되기 쉬우며, 이는 고체전해질과의 계면 저항을 증가시켜 전고 체전지 시스템에서의 성능 저하를 초래한다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해, 열화된 NCM811 양극 소재를 O₂ 분위기 에서 열처리하여 표면의 불순물을 효과적으로 제거하고 양극 표면의 전도성을 향상시킴으로써, 양극-고체전해질 간의 계면 저항을 현저히 감소시키는 결과를 얻었다. SEM, XRD, ICP 분석을 통해 열화된 NCM811 양극 소재의 표면 특성 변화를 분석하였으며, 열처리 후 NCM811 소재의 계면 특성이 개선됨에 따라 전기화학적 성능 또한 상용 NCM811 소재와 유사한 수준으로 회복되는 것을 확인하였다. 특히, O₂ 분위기의 물리적 열처리 방법은 Ni-rich NCM811 양극 소재의 열화를 효과적으로 억제하고 고체전해질과의 계면 접촉을 개선하여, 황화물계 전고체전지의 전기화학적 성능 을 획기적으로 향상시킬 수 있는 유망한 기술임을 입증하였다. 이러한 결과는 전고체전지 상용화를 위한 핵심 전략으 로 적용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In this study, we employed a small-scale experiment to demonstrate the introduction of a thin copper heat dissipation plate into a bentonite buffer layer of an engineered barrier system. This experiment designed for spent nuclear fuel disposal can effectively reduce the maximum temperature of the bentonite buffer layer, and ultimately, make it possible to reduce the area of the disposal site. For the experiment, a small-scale engineered barrier system with a copper heat dissipation plate was designed and manufactured. the thickness of the cylindrical buffer was about 2 cm, which was about 1/20 of KAERI Repository System (KRS). At a power supply of 250 W, the maximum buffer temperature reduced to a mere 1.8°C when the thin copper plate was introduced. However, the maximum surface temperature reduced to a remarkable 9.1°C, when a U-collar copper plate was introduced, which had a good contact with the other barrier layers. Consequently, we conclude that the introduction of the thin copper plate into the engineered barrier system for spent nuclear fuel disposal can effectively reduce the maximum buffer temperature in high-level radioactive waste disposal repositories.

This study aims to present a performance based design for apartments through evacuation safety assessment and damage impact assessment due to acrylonitrile leakage. In the evacuation safety evaluation, ASET was analyzed as 25 min or more and 60 min or less when the ventilation rate was once per hour, and RSET was 22.6 min. Evacuation safety is satisfied when the number of ventilation per hour is less than 1, so it is necessary to design the number of ventilation to be 1 or less. In the damage impact assessment, the 0% structural collapse rate due to overpressure was measured to be between 71m and 90m, and the 0% fatality rate due to radiant heat was measured to be between 136m and 353m. Therefore, maintain a safe distance of 353m or more.

최근 지구온난화로 인해 발생하는 폭우 및 강설과 같은 비정상적인 기상 패턴으로 인해 도로 표면 결빙(블랙 아이스)으로 인 한 사고와 인명 피해가 증가하고 있으며, 이는 주요 문제로 대두되고 있습니다. 이러한 문제를 완화하기 위해 본 연구에서는 열저장 능력을 갖춘 상변화 물질(PCM)을 시멘트 복합재료에 포함시켰습니다. PCM은 상변화 과정에서 열에너지를 흡수, 저장 및 방출할 수 있어 온도 변동으로 인한 결빙을 최소화할 수 있습니다. PCM은 먼저 미세 캡슐화된 후 시멘트 복합재료에 강화되어 기계적 및 열적 성능 검증 연구가 수행되었습니다. 또한, 열전달 효율과 기계적 특성을 향상시키기 위해 다중벽 탄소나노튜브(CNT)와 실리카 퓸이 추 가되었습니다. 미세 캡슐화된 PCM의 열 성능은 열 거동을 측정하기 위한 재료 실험을 통해 검증되었습니다. 이후, 제조된 시멘트 복 합재의 기계적 및 열적 성능 테스트가 그 효과를 평가하기 위해 수행되었습니다. 이러한 테스트 동안 일정 온도와 습도 챔버를 사용한 열 주기 테스트가 열 성능을 검증하기 위해 수행되었습니다. 기계적 성능 실험에서는 CNT와 실리카 퓸의 포함이 미세 캡슐화된 PCM 의 포함으로 인한 강도 저하를 완화하는 것을 확인하였습니다. 더욱이, 열 주기 테스트를 통해 고효율 열저장 시멘트 복합재가 결빙 조건에서도 영하의 온도를 유지할 수 있음을 보여주었으며, 이는 효율적인 열저장 성능을 입증하였습니다.

The PCHE(Printed Circuit Heat Exchanger)-type heat exchanger, which was fabricated by etching and diffusion bonding, was used to hydrogen station, VHTR(Very High Temperature Reactor), SMR and so on. The hydrogen station equipped with PCHE-type heat exchanger is necessary to inject the hydrogen gas into facilities, for instance, such as HFCV(Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicle) and power systems. The purpose of this study is to investigate the thermal characteristics of thin plate of PCHE depending on constraint conditions through numerical analysis. As the results, it showed that thermal stress of thin plate, which was not performed diffusion bonding at all, was larger than that, which was performed perfect diffusion bonding, and its maximum difference was about 3 times. Further it was confirmed that the thermal characteristics of thin plate could be obtained by investigating the heat flux.

The research aimed to develop a high-efficiency plate-type heat exchanger for exhaust gas using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) thermal analysis based on the plate shape, and to identify the optimal shape. Following this, a water/air plate heat exchanger was manufactured, and its characteristics were studied experimentally. As the Re number increases on the gas (or air) side, the heat transfer rate increases significantly, whereas an increase in the Re number on the water side leads to a smaller increase in heat transfer. This is attributed to the larger convective heat resistance on the gas side, causing a substantial reduction in gas-side heat resistance as gas velocity increases, resulting in a considerable overall reduction in heat resistance. The fluid flow pressure drop showed similar results between the CFD calculations and experimental outcomes.

The objective of the present experiment was to investigate the effects of dietary vitamin C (VC), vitamin E (VE), and betaine (BT) supplementations on productive performance, egg quality, relative organ weights, liver visual characteristics, antioxidant status, immune response, and stress indicator in laying hens raised under heat stress conditions. A total of 280 47-wk-old Hy-Line Brown laying hens were allotted to 1 of 4 dietary treatments with 7 replicates in a completely randomized design. Each replicate had 10 birds per cage. The basal diet was formulated to meet or exceed the requirement estimates for Hy-Line Brown laying hens. Three additional diets were prepared by adding 250 mg/kg VC, 250 mg/kg VE, or 3,000 mg/kg BT to the basal diet. The experimental diets and water were provided to hens on an ad libitum basis for 8 wk. Average daily room temperature and relative humidity were 30.7±1.41℃ and 72.5±11.61%, respectively. Results indicated that hens fed diets containing 250 mg/kg VE had a less (p<0.05) egg production rate than other dietary treatments. For egg quality, hens fed diets containing 3,000 mg/kg BT had a less (p<0.05) eggshell thickness than those fed the diets containing 250 mg/kg VC or 250 mg/kg VE. For antioxidant status, there was a tendency (p=0.09) for the least malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations in the liver for BT treatment. A tendency (p=0.05) was observed for less blood heterophil:lymphocyte ratio in BT treatment as compared to other treatments. In conclusion, dietary supplementation of 250 mg/kg VC, 250 mg/kg VE, and 3,000 mg/kg BT has no beneficial effects on productive performance, egg quality, relative organ weights, liver visual characteristics, and immune responses of laying hens raised under the current heat stress conditions. However, dietary supplementation of 3,000 mg/kg BT alleviates antioxidant status and stress response of laying hens exposed to heat stress.

Test of the operating characteristics and energy saving performance of a container cooling system that reduces the operating energy of a refrigeration system using a loop thermosyphon heat exchanger that removes heat by temperature difference between outdoor and indoor was performed. As a result of the experiments, when the loop thermosyphon and the refrigeration system were operated simultaneously, the refrigeration system operated intermittently by reducing the heat load. As the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor increased, the operating time of the refrigeration system decreased and the energy efficiency rate increased. Energy efficiency rate showed a tendency to increase with increasing temperature difference, and the predicted correlation of energy efficiency rate using the performance of the loop thermosyphon heat exchanger and the refrigeration system was relatively consistent with the experimental value.

Climatologists have warned rapid climate change of the earth and it will cause a big disaster worldwide. the rapid climate change is mostly due to emission of greenhouse gases. To reduce greenhouse gases, many countries have prepared protocols, agreements, and treaties. IMO(International Maritime Organization) have established the protocol to decrease ship’s greenhouse gases emission and they consider the nuclear power source is an option to replace fossils fuels. Our study focused on elemental technologies related to a nuclear powered ship and, the passive residual heat removal system(PRHRS) is one of topics in our study. As the mandatory of the post Fukushima accident, PRHRS for a nuclear powered ship has been studied. We invented the new concepts of PRHRS which is optimized to a nuclear powered ship. The numerical analysis results indicated that the system is very reasonable. Based on the numerical analysis, an experiential loop was set and we preliminary tested the performance of the system under the reduced scale. The experimental results came with the numerical analysis results well.

In this study, the cooling performance change according to the arrangement of the fin-tube heat exchanger using a single tube and the cooling performance change according to the air flow rate were studied. The arrangement of basic heat exchanger was set to 4 columns and 4 rows, and the performance change was studied while changing the columns and rows. In addition, the performance change was investigated by changing the air flow rate of the basic heat exchanger.

As the demand for appropriate heat dissipation measures to improve product stability and performance continues to increase and product design becomes highly integrated, research to improve heat transfer performance while maintaining the same area or size is required. In this study, the sample-shaped aluminum plate was treated as upper-coating, and the thickness of the coating was divided into 1mm, 2mm, and 3mm, respectively, and the coating material was applied with silver, copper, and graphene. The temperature condition of the heat source was set to 473K, and heat dissipation analysis was performed under natural convection. The thermal performance was compared and analyzed through temperature distribution, flow velocity distribution, and heat flux, and it was confirmed that the high thermal conductivity of graphene compared to other materials had a dominant effect on the increase in the conduction heat transfer rate. And it was confirmed that the high surface temperature of the graphene coating also increased the heat transfer rate by convection, thereby enhancing the heat dissipation effect.

In this paper, a heat exchange system using cooling dehumidification and mixing process was proposed as an experimental study for a white smoke reduction heat exchanger system under winter condition. The white smoke reduction heat exchange system is divided into an EA part, SA part, W part and mixing zone. For the operating conditions, three types (Cases 1, 2, and 3) were selected depending on whether EA fan, SA fan, and A-W heat exchanger were operated. In addition, in order to visualize the white smoke exhausted from the mixing zone, it was photographed using CCTV. In order to investigate the performance of the white smoke reduction heat exchange system, the temperature reduction rate and absolute humidity reduction rate of EA and the heat recovery rate of W were calculated. The temperature change of EA and SA according to operating conditions was most effective in Case 3, and the temperature and absolute humidity at the outlet of the mixing zone were greatly reduced. From the results of the white smoke visualization, it was confirmed that the white smoke generation mechanism was different depending on the operating conditions, and the amount of white smoke generation was greatly reduced.

This study presents a numerical modeling and a transient simulation of a desiccant coated heat exchanger (DCHE) that is employed for dehumidification in buildings. DCHE is fabricated by coating type RD silica gel on the fin surfaces of a fin tube heat exchanger. The latent cooling load, which is 25 to 45% of the total cooling load in most weather conditions is removed by adsorption of vapor using DCHE. The saturated adsorbent is then regenerated by using either low-temperature waste heat from industry and/or renewable energy such as solar energy and geothermal energy. A mathematical model is established and a transient simulation has been carried out so as to analyze its performance in terms of average humidity difference (AHD), moisture removal capacity (MRC), latent cooling capacity(QL), and COP. Comparison between the simulation results and the experimental data was carried out and showed good agreement and a similar trend with a maximum discrepancy of 5%. Key results revealed that MRC, AHD, QL, and COP are largely affected by both air dry-bulb temperate and air wet-bulb temperature while they are less affected by the frontal air velocity. Furthermore AHD, MRC and QL are largely improved by hot-water temperature while COP decreases as hot-water temperature increases due to high regeneration energy consumption.

This paper considers the influence of internal heat exchanger and capillary tube on the efficiency of small refrigeration system using eco-friendly refrigerants such as R290, R600a, R1270, and R717. A refrigeration system using such internal heat exchanger and capillary tube may improve performance, but may degrade performance. Therefore, this paper used a mathematical model in a normal state to understand performance characteristics as to what change occurs when internal heat exchanger and capillary tube are attached to eco-friendly refrigerant based on R134a. In addition, the effects of operating conditions such as refrigerant flow rate, evaporation temperature, condensation temperature, subcooling degree internal heat exchanger length and capillary tube length were analyzed. The result showed that the evaporation temperature, condensation temperature, subcooling degree, internal heat exchanger length and capillary tube length had an effect on the refrigeration capacity and compression power. Therefore, it is necessary to design a refrigeration cycle using an eco-friendly refrigerant by grasping these effects in detail.

In order to study the drying performance of the dryer, the performance characteristics of the heat pump dryer applied a PF heat exchanger is applied were experimentally investigated. The capacity, COP, drain and SMER of the dryer were measured by the refrigerant charge and EEV opening. Heat pump dryers are refrigerant-air systems. For the dryer performance test, an air enthalpy calorimeter was used. From the experimental results, the heat exchanger performances according to the change in the refrigerant charge and EEV opening were the maximum at 0.5kg refrigerant and 30% EEV opening, respectively. In addition, SMER suggested a satisfactory level of drying performance. This shows that the refrigeration cycle of the dryer must be operated at an appropriate refrigerant amount and EEV opening degree to secure optimal drying performance. On the other hand, the time to reach the target setting temperature of the dryer was increased by about 2.5 times depending on with/without the sample.

In this study, multilayered SnO nanoparticles are prepared using oleylamine as a surfactant at 165oC. The physical and chemical properties of the multilayered SnO nanoparticles are determined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Interestingly, when the multilayered SnO nanoparticles are heated at 400oC under argon for 2 h, they become more efficient anode materials, maintaining their morphology. Heat treatment of the multilayered SnO nanoparticles results in enhanced discharge capacities of up to 584 mAh/g in 70 cycles and cycle stability. These materials exhibit better coulombic efficiencies. Therefore, we believe that the heat treatment of multilayered SnO nanoparticles is a suitable approach to enable their application as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries.
