The nitrogen oxidized substance(NOx) from cars in city is one of serious air-polution problems. In advanced country, the powder or the liquid photocatalystic for asphalt pavement and noise barrier have been used to reduce the air-polution. In this paper, the effect of photocatalystic on asphalt pavement has been evaluated, especially for UV optical science reactions analyzed NOx purification efficiencies of the automobile waste gas. Judging from the limited lab-scale test, the use of the powder or the liquid photocatalystic is one of alternatives to reduce the NOx from automobile.

Currently, each farm bears both the outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease and the damage caused by AI. In addition, complaints about odors in the livestock industry are constantly being recovered and are expected to occur in the future. The purpose of this study is to improve the indoor air quality of enclosed facilities such as barns, houses, pigsty, and etc. This paper develops low-temperature plasma waste heat ventilation system to be installed in ventilation unit location and standardizes heat exchange element, low-temperature plasma lamp, and ballast for enhanced air cleaning function. In addition, this study intends to develop a new control system so that the farmers can connect with existing weather systems, flow fans, and other facility equipment by incorporating ICT.

An accurate knowledge of the flash point is important in developing appropriate preventive and control measures in industrial fire protection. The lower flash points for the n-propanol+formic acid system were measured by Pensky-Martens closed cup apparatus. This binary mixture exhibited MFPB (minimum flash point behavior), which leads to the minimum on the flash point vs composition curve. The Raoult's law and optimization method using Wilson equation were used to predict the lower flash points and were compared with experimental data. The calculated values based on the optimization method were found to be better than those based on the Raoult's law.

We measured flame extinguishing concentration and flue gas composition in the n-heptane fuel cup-burner system using inert gas agents such as nitrogen, argon, carbon dioxide and their mixtures. The flame extinguishing concentration of binary gaseous mixture was well predicted by model which contains the flame extinguishing concentration and composition of pure components. The higher average specific gravity of the mixed inert gas agents, the more excellent flame extinguishing performance. And the structure of enclosed space also affects the fire extinguishing. The composition of carbon dioxide in the flue gas was decreased with increasing extinguishing agent used. Nitrogen monoxide production is not related with increasing nitrogen, but increased at rapid mass flow rate of air in the cup-burner.

For the safe handling of n-nonanol, this study was investigated the explosion limits of n-nonanol in the reference data. The flash points and AITs (autoignition temperatures) by ignition delay time were experimented. As a results, the lower and upper explosion limits of n-nonanol recommended 0.8 Vol.% and 6.1 Vol.%, respectively. The lower flash points of n-nonanol by using closed-cup tester were experimented $94{\sim}97^{\circ}C$. The lower flash points of n-nonanol by using open cup tester were experimented $103{\sim}104^{\circ}C$. This study measured relationship between the AITs and the ignition delay times by using ASTM E659-78 apparatus for n-nonanol. The experimental AIT of n-nonanol was $270^{\circ}C$.

The flash point is one of the most important physical properties to charaterize fire and explosion hazard of liquid solutions. The maximum flash point of liquid mixture is larger than those of the individual components. In this study, the flash points of 2-pentanol+acetic acid system were measured by Seta flash closed cup tester. This system exhibited the maximum flash point behavior. The flash points were estimated by the Raoult's law and the optimization methods using the van Laar and Wilson equations. The calculated values by optimization methods were found to be better than those based on the Raoult's law.

Experiments on the hydrogen gas breakdown for plasma initiation in the KAERIT tokamak are described. The influence of the applied loop voltage, toroidal magnetic field, gas filling pressure, error magnetic field, and preionization is studied. It is concluded that the magnitude of the error field is the most important factor for successful discharge initiation. The gas breakdown voltage becomes minumum when the external compensating field most effectively corrects the net error field. Even though preionization effect is not prominent, it is exhibited more easily in the case of worse confinement. Discharge initiation conditions experimentally determined are compared with those calcuated from a theoretical model. Some other unknown physical processes maintain the operation range somewhat narrower than predicted by the present theoretical model. However, this model is adequate for the breakdown phase of tokamaks.

The flash point is one of the most important indicators of the flammability of liquid solutions. The flash point is the lowest temperature at which there is enough concentration of flammable vapor to form an ignitable mixture with air. In this study the flash points of ternary liquid solutions, n-nonane+n-decane+n-dodecane system, were measured using Seta flash closed cup tester. The measured values were compared with the calculated values using Raoult's law and empirical equation. The calculated data by empirical equation described the measured values more effectively than those calculated by Raoult's law.

Recently the use of gas spring in the combat and commercial vehicle's suspension is increasing. Because of its nonlinear characteristics, the gas spring can support wide range of dynamic loads and gives good ride quality. In design of gas spring, isothermal and adiabatic processes are applied generally, but those processes could not produce heat transfer effect in the simulation. So in this study, heat transfer differential equation and BWR/Ideal state equation are used to calculate the pressure of gas spring which is changing with time. The numerical analysis showed that the pressure of gas spring forms a hysteresis loop in the both of the state equations. But the peak pressure value of BWR equation over 0.1Hz frequency are higher than that of adiabatic process. And the test results showed that the differences between test results and ideal gas equation are smaller than those of BWR equation, so the ideal equation is more accurate than BWR equation in this case.

The flash point is the major physical property used to characterize the fire hazard of flammable liquid solutions. In the present study, the main focus is on measuring and estimating the flash points for binary flammable mixture. The flash points for n-propanol+propionic acid were measured by Seta flash closed cup apparatus. The experimental data were correlated with the van Laar and NRTL equations through the optimization method. The results estimated by these correlations were compared with the values calculated by the method based on Raoult's law. The optimization method were found to be better than the method based on the Raoult's law.
