기체분리막의 성능을 평가하기 위한 Manometric method의 몇가지 투과측정장치 중, High-Vacuum technique는 기체 투과계수, 확산계수 및 용해도계수의 정확한 값을 얻는데 가장 유용한 장치이다. 그러나 이 장치는 비용이 비싸고, 조작법이 복잡하며, 투과실험시 계 내의 투과측의 농도를 분석할 수 없고, 측정시간이 많이 걸리는 단점이 있다. 따라서 보다 간단하고 일반적인 측정장치는 막내 기체 확산계수의 측정에는 정확도가 떨어지지만, Low-Vacuum Technique 측정장치가 더 많이 사용되고 있다. Volumetric method는 조작법이 간단하며, 계 내의 농도분석이 가능하고, 측정시간이 빠르며, 비용이 적게 드는 장점이 있다. 일반적으로 Volumetric 투과특정장치로 투과계수는 얻었지만, 확산계수에 대해서는 극소수의 연구자들만이 언급하고 있다. 이는 실험하는 방법의 어려움과 기체의 막내 농도분포에 대해 수학적으로 적합한 모델의 해를 얻지 못한데 있다. 최근데 Lee 등은 Volumetric method을 이용한 확산계수의 평가에 대해 연구하여 신뢰성 있는 결과를 보여주었다. 따라서 본 실험은 Volumetric method를 이용하여 막내 기체 확산계수의 측정을 위해 온도, 압력및 분자직경에 따라 Standing time의 예측에 대해 검토하였다.

The carbonation of concrete is one of the major factors that cause durability problems in concrete structures. The rate of carbonation depends largely upon the diffusivity of carbon dioxide in concrete. The purpose of this study is to identify the diffusion coefficients of carbon dioxide for various concrete mixtures. To this end, several series of tests have been planned and conducted. The test results indicate that the diffusion of carbon dioxide reached the steady-state within about five hours after exposure. The diffusion coefficient increases with the increase of water-cement ratio and decreases with the increase of relative humidity at the same water-cement ratio. The content of aggregates also influences the diffusivity of carbon dioxide in concrete. It was found that the diffusion coefficient of cement paste is larger than that of concrete or mortar. The experimental study of carbon dioxide diffusivity in this study will allow more realistic assessment of carbonation depth in concrete structures.

A novel permeation apparatus was developed which could make the on-line measurements of both flux transient and permeate composition in gas permeation. The measurement by using the per¬meation apparatus was based on the continuous-flow technique. The transient measurement allowed the simultaneous determinations of permeation characteristics, such as, permeability, diffusion and solubility coefficients, and activation energies only with one experiment. The apparatus performance was illustrated by conducting the permeation of pure gases through two glassy polyimides and a rubbery poly (dimethyl¬siloxane) membranes, respectively. A comparison of the permeation characteristics determined from the flux transients was made with the literature values for verifying the confidence and accuracy of the measurement. Also, the analysis of the permeation transients obtained was carried out for the close investigation of the permeation behaviors of gases through membrane.

This basic study is focused on the physically removal method of carbon dioxide from the decomposition of ammonium carbarmate to prevent the recombination of ammonium salts. A basic visual experimental set-up was designed and constructed to observe the recombination phenomena from the proper composition of ammonia gas, carbon dioxide gas, and compressed air dilution gas. To quantify the recombination phenomena, a simple device was designed to measure the weight change under severe cases for three different tube sizes. The temperature and pressure in the visual tube and the volumetric flow rates of the nitrogen dilution gas were studied and the conditions to avoid recombination were analyzed according to mean free path theory. Diffusivity values based on the Chapman-Enskog theory were calculated from the experimental data. These value may serve as an index for the prevention of recombination.
