An experimental study has been performed on the single phase flow and convective heat transfer in trapezoidal microchannels. The microchannel was about $270{\mu}m$ wide, $800{\mu}m$ deep. and 7 mm long, which might ensure hydrodynamically fully-developed laminar flow at a low Reynolds number. The experiments were conducted with R1l3 and water, with the Reynolds number ranging from approximately 30 to 5000 for friction factor and 30 to 700 for the Nusselt number. Friction factors in laminar are found to be in good agreement with the predictions of existing correlation suggesting that a conventional analysis approach can be employed in predicting flow friction behavior in microchannels. However turbulent friction factors are hardly predictable by the existing correlations. The experimental results show that the Nusselt number is not a constant but increases almost linearly with the Reynolds number even the flow is fully developed (Re < 100). The dependence of the Nusslet number on the Reynolds number is contradictory to the conventional theory. At a Reynolds number greater than 100, the Nusselt number increases slowly with the Reynolds number, where thennally developing flow is responsible for the increase of the Nusselt number with the Reynolds number.

In order to develop active cooling systems for a hypersonic cruise vehicle, a series of studies need to be preceded on regenerative cooling technologies by using endothermic reaction of liquid hydrocarbon aviation fuels. Among them, it is essential to scrutinize fluid flow/heat transfer/endothermic pyrolysis characteristics of supercritical hydrocarbons in a micro-channel, as well as to acquire thermophysical properties of hydrocarbon fuels in a wide range of temperature and pressure conditions. This study, therefore, reviewed those technologies and analyzed major findings in related research areas which have been carried out worldwide for the development of efficient operational regenerative cooling systems of a hypersonic flight vehicle.

A leak-detection method has been developed by measuring the pressure variation between the inner and outer heattransfer tubes of a double-wall tube steam generator. An experiment was carried out to measure the leak rate in the gap between two surfaces pressed with a hydraulic press in order to simulate the phenomena, and a correlation was determined for the leak rate in a micro gap. However, in the correlation, the gap width and friction coefficient were coupled with the surface roughness, which affects the two parameters. The two parameters were separated using a surface-contact model to develop a correlation for the friction coefficient. The correlation was compared with the existing correlations used for crack analysis. Although the applied ranges of Reynolds numbers were different, the developed correlation for Reynolds numbers of 0.1.0.35 showed similar tendencies to existing correlations used for higher Reynolds numbers.

Because the minute displacement of ground accompanied by excessive pumping of groundwater at specified site is mainly generated from ill-balancing of water budget within groundwater basin, It is necessary to monitor the variation of micro-subsidence for a long time at representative points. We made up the conceptual model using two-dimensional electrical resistivity survey and three-dimensional soil profile consisted of loam and sand. In verifying the reliability of this conceptual model using numerical modeling for ground settlement and groundwater flowing, two-dimensional electrical resistivity survey with short distance of electrode following soil sampling with hand auger would be useful for interpreting hydrogeological structure related to the minute displacement of ground consisted of loam and sand.

Recently, there has been a growing interest in the study of treatment of $CO_2$ generated by industrial activities and resource recycling of industrial byproducts. The aim of this study is to investigate the applicability of industrial byproducts that can be used as concrete mixed materials by carbonation curing. For this purpose, the physical and chemical changes of the pastes with research cement(RC), blast furnace slag powder (GGBFS) and circulating fluidized bed combustion ashes (CFBC) were evaluated by carbonation curing. XRD and SEM analyzes were performed to investigate micro-structural changes. As a result, it was confirmed that calcium carbonate, which is a reaction product produced by carbonation curing, filled the space inside the paste and formed a dense micro-structure. Also, as the $CO_2$ curing time increased, it was confirmed that calcium carbonate crystals were grown together to form a dense micro-structure.

남극에 상주하는 여러 과학기지 근처 해역에서 5 mm 이하의 크기를 가지는 미세플라스틱이 다량 발견되고 있으며, 그에 따라 과학기지에서 방출하는 방류수가 미세플라스틱의 지역 소스로 여겨지고 있다. 현재는 미세플라스틱의 오염 수준을 이해하는 정도에서 그쳤으며, 미세플라스틱의 물리적인 운송 메커니즘을 이해하고자 하는 시도는 상대적으로 부족한 실정이다. 남극 세종과학기지 근처에서도 미세플라스틱이 발견됨에 따라 본 연구에서는 과학기지 인근인 마리안 소만(Marian Cove)에서의 미세플라스틱 운송 메커니즘을 확인하고자 한다. 연구 대상 지역에서 미세플라스틱의 체류 시간은 짧기 때문에, 미세플라스틱에 생물오손 또는 풍화작용이 일어나기에는 충분하지 않은 시간이다. 따라서, 마리안 소만에서 발견된 미세플라스틱에 대해 연직 속도에 따라 확실히 가라앉는 그룹과 확실히 떠오르는 그룹으로 나누어 입자의 이송 메커니즘을 파악하였다. 해수 유동 모델과 파랑 모델을 결합하여 마리안 소만의 해수 흐름을 재현하였으며, 과학기지 방류 구 위치에서 방출된 미세플라스틱의 이송 경로는 라그랑지안 입자 추적(Lagrangian Particle Tracking) 방법을 이용하였다. 본 연구에서는 미세플라스틱의 궤적을 설명하기 위해 입자의 이송에 영향을 주는 힘을 결정할 수 있는 무차원 수 HK angle을 제안하였으며, 이를 이용하여 마리안 소만에서의 미세플라스틱 이송을 설명하였다. 대상 해역 내에서 확실히 떠오르는 그룹은 표층 흐름을 따라 해안선에 도달하였으며, 확실히 가라앉는 그룹은 방출 직후 빠르게 가라 앉으며 방출 위치 근처인 해저에 집적되었다. HK angle에 따르면, 마리안 소만의 연직 흐름이 강할 경우에는 미세플라스틱의 특성에 관계없이 해수 흐름을 따라 이송됨을 확인하였다. 더 나아가, 조석에 따라 미세플라스틱의 방출 시간을 달리하고, 방출 위치를 달리하여 모의함으로써 마리안 소만과 같이 작은 만에서 미세플라스틱 오염도를 줄이기 위한 적절한 방류수 방출 시간 및 위치를 제안하였다.

In the vacuum assisted RTM (VARTM) process that has become the center of attention for manufacturing massive composite structures, a good evacuation of air in the fiber preform is recognized as the prime factor. The microvoids, or the dry spots, are formed as a result of improper gate/vent locations and the mold geometry. The non-uniform resin velocity at the flow front leads to the formation of microvoids in the fibers, whereas the air in the microvoids can migrate along with the resin flow during mold filling. The residual air in the internal voids of a composite structure may cause a degradation of the mechanical properties as well as the structural failure. In this study, a unified macro- and micro analysis methods were developed to investigate the formation and transport of air in resin during VARTM process. A numerical simulation program was developed to analyze the three-dimensional flow pattern as well as the macro- and microscopic distribution of air in a composite part fabricated by VARTM process.
