The environmental significance of indoor air quality is gaining more attention. Especially, the contamination of indoor air by volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) has become a serious environmental concern. We investigated the VOCs emissions from some interior materials used in the conventional railway passenger cabin. The seat cover and the flooring of cabins were used as testing materials, and they were put in a clean environmental chamber. The temperature and relative humidity was kept at $25{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ and $50{\pm}5%$, respectively. It was found that these interior materials emitted significant amount of VOCs under constantly ventilated condition. The flooring emitted more halogenated VOCs than the seat cover, because it is made of PVC, which contains many chlorine atoms. However, the emission gradually decreased over time. Because the VOCs emission from interior materials may threaten the health of passengers in the cabin, interior materials emitting less VOCs should be used.

In this paper, we designed and made the scanned point detecting system for 3-dimensional measurement of the light emitted from plasma display panel (PDP) , and we measured and analyzed 3-dimensional light emitted from a real PDP by using this scanned point detecting system. The scanned point detecting system has a point detector with a pinhole. The light emitted from the source at the in-focus position can pass through the pinhole and be collected by detector. The light from other sources at outof-focus positions is focused at points in front of or behind the pinhole, and thus it is intercepted by the pinhole. Therefore, we can detect light information from a particular point of a PDP cell of 3-dimensional structure. We know the electric field distribution inside the PDP cell from the 3-dimensionallight intensity distribution measured by using the scanned point detecting system. As the Z axial measurement increases, the intensity of light detected increases and intensity of light detected on the inside edge of the ITa electrode is larger than outside edge of the ITa eletrode and gap of the ITa electrodes. Also, as the measurement point moves from one barrier rib to another, the detected light is weaker near to the barrier ribs than at the center between the barrier ribs. The emitted light is concentrated at the center between barrier ribs. ribs.

Emission tests were carried out to investigate the characteristics of concentration according to flooring sort using small chamber method. The target Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) included 27 individual compounds of environmental concern, which were determined by adsorption sampling and thermal desorption coupled with GC/MS method and by DNPH cartridge/HPLC method. The emission factor of Total Volatile Organic Compounds (TVOC) and Formaldehyde (HCHO) was detected $0.3mg/m^2{\cdot}h$ and $0.2mg/m^2{\cdot}h$ respectively, and the floorings of 37 (9 PVC Tile, 10 PVC Sheet, 18 Flooring) were satisfied emission standard. TVOC emission factor appeared in order of concentration of PVC Sheet, PVC Tile, and floor flooring, while HCHO was detected very high emission factor (as $0.4mg/m^2{\cdot}h$) at floor flooring above PVC series (as $0.001mg/m^2{\cdot}h$).

재료의 종류 및 특성에 따른 전기 반응 약물방출 특성을 확인하기 위하여 전압을 이용한 약물방출 시스템을 설계 하였으며 각각의 재료의 특성에 따른 약물방출 특성을 확인하였다. 약물방출은 활성탄소섬유에 친수성 관능기를 도입할 경우 방출되는 약물의 양이 37% 감소하였다. 한편 PVA에 카본블랙을 첨가하여 전도성을 향상 시킨 경우 11%의 약물만을 방출하던 PVA가 대부분의 약물(98%)을 방출하였다.

4000MW급 유연탄발전소는 기존 500MW급 4기의 발전설비 운영조건에서 지역공동체는 긍정적이었으나, 500MW급의 증설 호기가 늘어나면서 지역 공동체는 발전소 증설과 관련하여 기존 동쪽 부지 경계지역의 소음환경에 대하여 부정적인 문제를 제기하였다. 2000MW급 증설이 진행되어온 4000MW급 발전소의 다양한 소음원에 의한 소음파워 증대와 증가방출 과도소음 에 대하여 고저가 다양한 주변지역에 미치는 영향음 평가하고자 3차원 모델링기법을 적용한다. 기존호기를 비롯한 전체의 발전소 전면부 소음원응 비교 시험결과 증가방출 소음 파워가 기존 설계의 변경 제작되어 기존호기에 비해 20~30dBA 높아져 동시 방출사 주변지역에 과도하게 영향을 미치는 상태였으며 500MW급 4기를 추가 증설에 따라 일상소음원에 의한 소음 영향도 증설전 대비 2~3dBA 증가된 것으로 평가되었다. 따라서 증설호기의 과도 소음원 제거 방안으로 대가 방출증가가 회수되도록 증설호기의 증가방출설비를 개선하였고, 증설에 의하여 증가된 소음 영향음 저감하고자 기존 경계지역에 미치는 소음원음 고려하여 방음벽음 설치한 결과 47 ~ 49dBA를 나타내고 인근 주거건물의 전면부 소음은 43dBA이었다.

전자방출에서 에너지 교환과 역온도를 새롭게 계산하였다. 전자방출에서 대체전자들에 유용한 빈상태들을 만드는 요소로 터널링 효과를 이 계산에서 고려하였다. 그것은 방출부분에서 일어나는 대체 관정을 설명하기 위해서는 빈상태를 만드는데 터널링 기여가 필수적이기 때문이다. 이렇게 계산하여 온 도와 전장의 함수로 얻어진전자당 에너지 교환은 실험결과와 잘 일치하였다. 또한 전장의 함수로 얻어 진 역온도도 실험치와 만족할 만한 일치를 보여주었다. 이 결과는 대체전자들의 평균에너지에 대한 노 팅햄-플레밍과 헨더슨의 논쟁에서 후자의 견해를 지지하는 것이다.

In this paper, we studied the characteristics of a soliton coupler using a bent nonlinear waveguide. The bent soliton coupler has very ,harp switching characteristic like the conventional soliton coupler due to the threshold effect of soliton emi,sion from the nonlinear waveguide. By using the bent structure, we can reduce the threshold power for the soliton emission. We consider the saturation effect of nonlinearity and the loss in the medium for more accurate and practical numerical analysis in wave propagation through the bent soliton coupler. The simulation results show that the consideration of the saturation effect and the ]os~ may be very important in the analyses and design of the nonlinear waveguide devices. The bent structure is useful for the emission of the spatial soliton with the low threshold power, when we consider the saturation and the loss effect. ffect.

Radon-222 exhalation rate from several domestic building materials were experimentally measured by using radon cup method, in which a CR-39 plastic is used as a passive radon detector. The radon detection factor of CR-39 detector determined in a series of calibration experiments was $0.164{\pm}0.005(tracks\;cm^{-2}/Bq\;d\;m^{-3})$, which is consistent with those reported by other investigators. The radon exhalation rates of several building materials (brick, red brick, concrete block, granite plate, concrete floor and wall) ranges from $6.8{\times}10^{-6}\;(granite plate)\;to\;75.0{\times}10^{-6}Bq/m^2-sec(brick)$ with the increasing order of granite plate, red brick, concrete wall, concrete block, concrete floor and brick. It showed that the CR39 radon cup can be efficiently utilized in measuring the radon-222 gas exhalation rate from building materials.

Oscillating heat release associated with periodic vortex-flame interaction was investigated experimentally. Turbulent jet flames were stabilized with recirculating hot products in a dump combustor, and large-scale periodic vortices were imposed into the jet flame by acoustic forcing. Forcing frequencies and operating parameters were adjusted to simulate unstable combustor operation in practical combustors. The objectives were to characterize vortex-heat release interaction that leads to unwanted heat release fluctuations and to identify the proper fuel injection pattern that could be used for actively suppressing such fluctuations. Phase-resolved CH* chemiluminescence and schlieren images were used as diagnostic tools. The results were compared at corresponding phases of vortex shedding cycle.

본 연구에서는 현재 사용되고 있는 건축물 내의 화장실 칸막이 재료를 대상으로 ISO 5660-1 콘칼로리미터(Cone calorimeter) 실험을 실시하여 대상 실험 재료들의 연소 특성을 비교 평가 하였다. 모두 5종류의 실험체를 사용하였으며, 화재 발생시 연소 중요 평가항목인 착화시간(Time to ignition), 총 방출열량(Total heat release), 최고 열방출율(Peak heat release rate), 평균 열방출율(Mean heat release rate)을 중점적으로 평가하였다. 실험결과, 착화시간은 일반 합판패널에서 빠르게 일어났으며, 총 방출열량, 최고 열방출율, 평균 열방출율은 고밀도 압축패널에서 높게 나타난 것으로 분석되었다.
