The heat release rate of liquid fuels is estimated by oxygen consumption technique. This method is based on the generalization that the heat release rate of combustion per unit of oxygen consumed are approximately the same for most fuels commonly encountered in fires. The oxygen concentration is measured by analyzer of paramagnetic type. The concentrations of CO2 and CO gas are measured by analyzed of Infra-Rad type. Time delays of analyzers are ignored. Results acqired from measuring techniques of exhaust gas concentrations are compared with each other.

실규모급 화재 실험의 신뢰성 있는 발열량 측정을 위해서 흡입 배관의 직경 1.6 m, 직선길이 26m, 후드 직경 10 m 그리고 흡입용량 $2,000m^3/min$ 이상의 대형 콘 칼로리미터를 구성하여 헵탄의 화재 크기별 연소 실험을 진행하였다. 발열량 측정을 비교 분석하기 위해서 산소 소모 지수법, 질량 소모법, 복사열 그리고 대류열 측정 기법에 따라서 각각의 발열량을 산출하고 크기를 비교하였다. 그 결과 대형 콘 칼로리미터에 의해서 측정한 산소 소모 지수법은 이론 발열량에 해당하는 질량 소모법과 최대 약 2.3 % 정도, 복사열에 의한 발열량 산출법은 12.2 % 정도, 연소면적에 의한 이상적인 발열량과는 최대 30 % 정도, 그리고 대류열만 고려한 경우 약 50 % 정도 차이가 나는 것을 확인하였다.

Heat release rates of main combustibles in residence area were measured by a calorimeter using oxygen consumption method. It was found that the peak heat release rates of the combustibles were 1.0MW for a refrigerator, 0.8MW for a desk, 4.2MW for a wardrobe and 0.4MW for a bed. Especially, the refrigerator and wardrobe were found to be very hazardous because of their fast fire growth rate.

Human wastes are rich in organic matter and therefore affect the dissolved oxygen when they are discharged into the sea. The breakdown of this organic matter liberates nutrients. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the self-purification capacity in the southern waters of the East Sea during the three cruises in June, July and August, 1986. Streeter and Phelps' model has been used in this study. Factors in this model, deoxygenation constant and reaeration coefficient, have been determined by applying oxygen consumption method and a closed system model. Deoxygenation constant and reaeretion coefficient are 0.177-0.313/day and 0.025-0.364/day respectively. The self-purification capacity to the DO value of 5mg/l is found to be $42.29\~434.25g\;BOD/m^2$, and to a great extent depends on the vertical mixing.

Functional imaging based on the susceptibility only is achieved by separation of the susceptibility effect from the mixture of flow effect by use of a tailored RF pulse in conjunction with gradient echo sequence. Using the tailored RF pulse the susceptibility enhanced functional imaging appears to be explicitly related to the deoxygenation processes, while in the conventional gradient echo technique functional contrast on $T2^{*}$ effect images appear to be mixed with a significant fraction of blood flow (in- flow) signals of both arterial as well as venous bloods due to the nature of the fast sequence employed with the gradient echo technique. In this paper, using the tailored RF pulses, one can unambiguously separate the susceptibility and flow effects in functional imaging. Since the signal obtained can be made sufficiently high and represents oxygenation process more accurately, it seems possible to study quantitative oxygen metabolisms in brain function hitherto difficult to do with other gradient echo techniques.

따스한 봄볕에 이제는 옷을 한 겹씩 벗어놓아야 할 때다. 지난 겨울 옷으로 꽁꽁 감춰두었던 내 몸매에 대한 관심이 서서히 살아나면서 이맘 때쯤 다이어트에 대한 갈망이 더욱 커지기 마련이다. 그러나 나른해지기 쉽고, 겨우내 움츠렸던 신체 활동량이 늘어나면서 식욕이 돋아나는 봄에는 다이어트가 쉽지 않다. 게을러지기 쉬운 봄에 꼭 필요한 다이어트는 바로 유산소 운동. 산소운동이란 역기 등 무거운 기구를 이용하여 단시간 내에 체력을 모하는 무산소운동과는 달리 달리기, 줄넘기, 조깅 등 체내 산소소모량을 가능한 한 많이 늘릴 수 있는 운동을 말한다. 봄철 올바른 운동법과 생활 속에서 쉽게 할 수 있는 유산소운동에 대해 알아보자.

미숙아에 있어 주로 표면활성제의 부족으로 인한 호흡곤란증은 미숙아 사망의 주원인이 된다. 호흡곤란증의 치료목적은 적절한 환기를 통해 체내 산소화를 유지시키는 것이다. 인공호흡기 치료를 받는 미숙아에게 필수적인 간호중재인 기관지 흡인술은 그 효과를 극대화하기 위해 흉곽진동법과 같이 사용될 수도 있다. 그러나 미숙아를 대상으로 하는 흉곽진동법은 그 중재의 안전성이나 효과에 대한 과학적 검증 없이 시행되고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구는 호흡곤란증 미숙아에 있어 기관지 흡인술 이전에 행하여지는 흉곽진동법이 산소화와 기관지 분비물에 미치는 영향을 연구하기 위해 실시되었다. 이를 위해 20명의 호흡곤란증 미숙아를 대상으로 대상자내 반복실험연구가 설계되었다. 독립변수는 기관지흡인술이전에 흉곽진동이고 종속 변수는 산소 포화도, 심박동수, 그리고 기관지 분비물의 양이었다. 각 대상자는 무작위 순서에 따라 한번은 흉곽진동없이 흡인을, 나머지 한번은 흉곽진동과 흡인의 두 가지 형태의 흡인을 경험 하였다. 연구 결과, 기관지 흡인술이전에 흉곽진동을 실시하든, 안하든 산소포화도와 심박동수의 변화양상에는 차이가 없었다. 그러나, 융곽진동법을 실시한 경우가 실시안한 경우에 비해 더 많은 양의 기관지 분비물을 흡인하였다. 이는 기관지 흡인술 이전에 실시하는 흉곽진동법이 미숙아의 체내에 부가적 산소소모를 초래하지 않는 반면, 기도로부터 더 많은 분비물을 흡인하는데 효과적임을 시사한다.

The energy released by various burning material has a wide range of its magnitude and transient characteristics, the measurement of the heat release rate(HRR) has been considered as one of the most challenging issue among the parameters related to fire. This study compares the measured HRR calculated by the oxygen consumption (OC) method and the carbon dioxide generation (CDG) method using a laboratory-scale fire calorimeter. The feasibility of the CDG method is examined by analyzing the relative error. The relationship between the oxygen depletion factor and CO₂ mass flow rate, which is a key parameter in HRR calculations, showed strong linearity at 6 % for the methane burner fire. The contribution of HRR by CO was less than 7% compared with the of HRR by CO₂ in the CDG calculation method. The linearity of the OC and CDG methods with respect to HRR of the referenced methane burner in a quasi-steady state was less than 1%; this indicates that the CDG method can be utilized as a complementary method in heat release rate measurement.

Purpose: We intended to evaluate myocardial oxygen consumption ($MVO_2)$ by applying recirculation correction and modified one-compartment model to have a reference range of $MVO_2$ in normal young population and to reveal the effect of recirculation on time-activity curve (TAC). Materials and Methods: In nine normal male volunteers with mean age of $26.3{\pm}4.0$, $MVO_2$ was estimated with 925 MBq (25mCi) of $^{11}C$-Acetate (Neuroscience Research Institute, Gachon University of Medicine and Science, Incheon, Korea) and PET/CT (Biograph 6, Siemens Medical Solution, Germany). Analysis software such as $MATLAB^{(R)}$ v7.1 (Mathworks, Inc., United States), $Excel^{(R)}$ 2007 (Microsoft, United States), and $SPSS^{(R)}$ v12.0 (Apache Software Foundation, United States) were used. Twenty three frames were of $12{\times}10$, $5{\times}60$, $3{\times}120$, $2{\times}300's$ duration, respectively. The modified one-compartmental model and the recirculation correction method were applied. Statistical analysis was performed by using Test of Normality, ANOVA and Post-Hoc (Scheffe's) analysis, and p-value less than 0.05 was considered as significant. Results: The normal reference ranges of $MVO_2$ were presented as $3.18-4.64\;{\times}\;10^{-4}\;ml/g/sec$, $1.91-3.94\;{\times}\;10^{-4}\;ml/g/sec$, $4.31-6.40\;{\times}\;10^{-4}\;ml/g/sec$, $2.84-4.53\;{\times}\;10^{-4}\;ml/g/sec$ and $3.42-5.00\;{\times}\;10^{-4}\;ml/g/sec$ in the septum, the inferior wall, the lateral wall, the anterior wall and the entire wall, respectively. In addition, it was noted that the dual exponentiality of the clearance curve is due to the recirculation effect and that the characteristic of the curve is essentially mono-exponential. Conclusion: $^{11}C$-Acetate is a radiotracer worthwhile to assess $MVO_2$. Re-circulated $^{11}C$ can influence TAC of $^{11}C$ in myocadia and so the recirculation correction must be considered when measuring $MVO_2$.
