This paper introduces an experimental study for the noise characteristics and reduction of a ventilating fan system. For the purpose of noise reduction of it, an absorptive duct silencer filled with a glass fiber has been conventionally utilized. However, a glass fiber has some disadvantages like hygiene and secondary pollution problems. In order to overcome these problems, in this paper, a perforated duct silencer has been applied to the ventilating fan system. For the designing of a perforated duct silencer, the transmission losses for various perforated panel systems are measured and compared with their sound absorption performances.

본 연구에서는 태양전지 표면에 입사된 광자의 반사손실을 최소화하기 위한 방법으로써 기판 표면에 다공성 실리콘층을 이용한 반사방지막 (Anti-Reflection Coating, ARC)을 형성하는 실험을 하였다. 다공성 실리콘(Porous silicon, PSi)은 실온에서 일정 비율로 만든 전해질 용액($HF-C_2H_5OH-H_2O$)을 사용하여 실리콘 표면을 양극산화처리 함으로써 단순 공정만으로 실리콘 기판의 반사율을 높일 수 있다. 또한 새로운 레이어(layer)없이 기존 기판을 식각시켜 만들기 때문에 박막형 태양전지를 제작시 적용이 용이하다. 저비용, 단순공정의 이점을 살려 전류밀도에 따른 PSi의 반사방지막으로써의 특성을 비교 분석하였다.

해수 온도의 상승과 해양 오염의 증가로 근래 국내 해안에서도 갯녹음이 확산되면서 바다숲이 축소되고 있다. 특히, 온난류의 유입에 의한 무절 석회조류의 난입과 해수에 함유 농도가 증가한 칼슘이 석출되고 해저 암반을 뒤덮어 해조류의 포자 활착 공간을 없애는 백화현상이 확산되면서 바다의 사막화 현상이 가속화되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 해조류의 포자가 빠르게 활착하여 안전하게 생장할 수 있는 공간을 제공하기 위한 새로운 방안으로, 먼저 육상에서 모판의 기능을 제공하여 해조류의 포자를 착상하여 성장시킨 후 해저로 이식하는 것으로 바다숲과 해안의 환경을 효과적으로 복원하기 위한 방안으로 다공성 기질 생태 플랫폼을 디자인하고 이의 특성 및 활용 방안을 제시하였다.

Road traffic noise is a major complaint. Porous pavement (PP) has been proposed as an effective method for reducing road traffic noise, but it has not been applied much due to the lack of quantitative evaluation. In this study, the noise reduction of single-layer porous pavement (SLPP) and double-layer porous pavement (DLPP) was evaluated. The noise was measured using the CPX method, and the driving speed was measured every 10km/h from 50km/h to 80km/h. The differences in noise level between the two PPs were statistically significant. The driving speed had no significant effect on the difference in noise between the two PPs. The DLPP showed a 6.6dB(A) reduction in average and a 6.3dB(A) reduction at the 95% confidence level compared to the SLPP. Reducing noise by 5dB(A) is equivalent to reducing traffic to 1/3 or lowering the vehicle's speed to 1/2. Sensitively, it is possible to recognize a 3dB(A) and 5dB(A) difference. The DLPP and SLPP were very effective in reducing traffic noise.

This study evaluated the effects of fibers on the mechanical properties and chemical solution resistance of porous concrete with fiber type (jute, pulp, PVA and nylon fiber) and fiber volume fraction (0.0%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%). The tests that were carried out to analysis the properties of porous concrete included compressive strength, void ratio, pH value, and chemical solution exposure with varying type and volume fraction of fiber were conducted. The type and volume fraction of fiber also affected the void ratio, compressive strength, flexural strength and chemical solution exposure. Increased volume fractions of fiber resulted in improved properties of the compressive strength, flexural strength and void ratio. However, the difference between the measured pH value and chemical resistance of porous concrete with fiber type and volume fraction was not significant.

On the basis of flow resistance theory the conceptual model and related mathematical descriptions is proposed for resistance modeling of groundwater flow in CPM(continuum Porous medium), DFN(discrete fracture network) and fractured-porous medium. The proposed model is developed on the basis of finite volume method assuming steady-state, constant density groundwater flow. The basic approach of the method is to evaluate inter-block flow resistance values for a staggered grid arrangement, i.e. fluxes are stored at cell walls and scalars at cell centers. The balance of forces, i.e. the Darcy law, is utilized for each control volume centered around the point where the velocity component is stored. The transmissivity (or permeability) at the interface is assumed to be the harmonic average of neighboring blocks. Flow resistance theory was utilized to relate the fluxes between the grid blocks with residual pressures. The flow within porous medium is described by three dimensional equations and that within an individual fracture is described by a two dimensional equivalent of the flow equations for a porous medium. Newly proposed models would contribute to develop flow simulation techniques with various matrix characteristics.

A multi-perforated tube is generally installed between the muffler inlet and in front of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalysts in the integrated urea-SCR muffler system in order to disperse the urea-water solution spray uniformly and to make better use of the SCR catalyst, which would result in an increase nitrogen oxide ($NO_x$) reduction efficiency and a decrease in the ammonia slip. The effects of the multi-perforated tube orifice area ratios on the internal flow characteristics were investigated analytically by using a general-purpose commercial software package. From the results, it was clarified that the multi-perforated tube geometry sensitively affected the generation of the bulk swirling motion inside the plenum chamber set in front of the SCR catalyst and to the uniformity index of the velocity distribution produced at the inlet of the catalyst. To verify the analytical results, engine tests were carried out in the ESC and ETC modes. Results of these tests indicated that the larger flow model in the longitudinal direction showed the highest NOx reduction efficiency, which was a good agreement with the analytical results.

Recently, higher capacity and energy density of lithium ion batteries are increasingly demanded for enhancing their performance in view of the rise in the commercial distribution of electric and hybrid vehicles. Computational analysis of a porous structure of vanadium pentoxide cathode was performed, employing a phase field model. The incipient model was designed as a spherical structure with cylindrical-shaped pores. Modifying the diameters and lengths of the pore cylinder and the number of pores, we considered different conditions for the porous vanadium pentoxide cathodes for analyzing their effect on the amount of lithium ion intercalated to them. Subsequently, we optimized the porous structure to contain the largest amount of intercalated lithium ion during discharge.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the overall spray behavior characteristics for various injection conditions in a gasoline direct injection(GDI) injector with multi-hole. The spray characteristics, such as the spray penetration, the spray angle, and the injection quantity, were studied through the change of the injection pressure, the ambient pressure, and the energizing duration in a high-pressure chamber with a constant volume. The n-heptane with 99.5% purity was used as the test fuel. In a constant volume chamber, the injected spray was visualized by the spray visualization system, which consisted of the high-speed camera, the metal-halide lamp, the injector control device, and the image analysis system with the image processing program. It was revealed that the injection quantity was mainly affected by the difference between the injection pressure and the ambient pressure. For low injection pressure conditions, the injection quantity was decreased by the increase of the ambient pressure, while it nearly maintained regardless of the ambient pressure at high injection pressure. According to the increase of the ambient pressure in the constant volume chamber, the spray development became slow, consequently, the spray tip penetration decreased, and the spray area increased. In additions, the circular cone area decreased, and the vortex area increased.

This paper deals with the process of obtaining sound transmission loss of a cylindrical silencer lined with multi-layered poroelastic sound absorbing materials. The Biot model and the Johnson-Champoux-Allard-Lafarge (JCAL) model were used to deal with waves propagating in multi-layered poroelastic materials. The boundary conditions required for analysis of the silencer were obtained and the numerical process of finding modes was explained. A numerical experiment was conducted on the 2-layered silencer using the modes and the transmission loss converged with the first 12 modes. Finally, the mode matching method proposed in this research was validated by being compared with the results calculated from Finite Element Method (FEM) about different kinds of sound absorbing materials.
