Purpose: To investigate the effects of a warm water-filled bag on body temperature, Oxygen demand, respiratory rate and blood sugar in high risk neonates. Method: The infants were assigned to two groups, 16 in the experimental and 20 in the control group. Infants in the experimental group was received $40{\~}42^{\circ}C$ warm water-filled bag therapy for 2 hours under radiant warmers. Infants in the control group were placed under the same kind of radiant warmers but without the warm water-filled bag. The following were measured every 30 minutes: rectal temperature, $O_2$ demand ($FiO_2$), and respiratory rate. Blood sugar was measured hourly. Result: Body temperatures increased significantly in the experimental group (P=0.0138), and there was a difference according to time (P=0.0001). Significant difference were found between the two groups fur $FiO_2$ (P=0.0180). There was no difference in respiratory rates between the two groups and rates according to time for the experimental group were also not significant (P=0.3569). No significant difference between two groups was found for blood sugar (P=0.2152), but there was a significant difference according to the times (P=0.0001). Conclusion: This results of this study indicate that a warm-filled bag is an effective means of resorting body temperature and reducing $O_2$ demand in high risk neonates.

A thiol-specific antioxidant protein (TSA or TPx) was purified from Halophilic archeabacteria Halococcus agglomeratus, by DEAE-Cellulose, Phnyl, sepharose, Sephadex G-75, Sephacryl S-100, Sephacryl S-200, and Q-Wepharose FF. This protein exhibited the preventeive effect against the inactivation of glutamine synthehase (GS) activity was support by a thiol-reducing equicalent such as dithiothreitol. TPx activity was maximal at NaCl concentration above 500mM. The molecular mass of the protein was determinated to be 22-kDa by SDS-PAGE. The TPx purified from Halococcus agglomeratus seems to be similar to other TPx family, except for the salt requirement for the maximal antioxidant activity.

This study was conducted to find out the stalk curing methods that can reduce photobleaching, and shorten the curing period in burley to bacco stalk curing. The results obtained summarized as follows. In the ventilation window-plot, the temperature within the curing house was high and the curing period was shortened, too. The rate of photobleached leaves of whole plant stalk curing-plot was higher than those of any other plots. In the ventilation window-plot, the labor of operating the curing house was saved and the yield and visual quality of cured leaves were high, too. For reducing the photobleaching of leaves, following procedures are desirable; to prevent the lower leaves from drying up and overripening at maturing stage, cut the stalk after first or second priming, shorten the curing period as possible when the 80% of leaf bodies changed brown.

The development of a combustion chamber for a 30-$ton_f$ regeneratively-cooled space liquid rocket engine is described. Starting from the development of bi-propellant swirl coaxial injectors, essential technologies were verified through subscale combustion chambers and afterwards applied to the full-scale combustion chambers. A total of 5 full-scale combustion chambers have been utilized to verify ignition, combustion efficiency and stability, cooling, and duration requirements. A total of 46 combustion tests were performed among which 23 tests were parallely performed with stability rating tests using a pulse gun device. The test results have revealed that the 30-$ton_f$ regeneratively-cooled combustion chamber fully complies to the performance and combustion stability requirements and thus concluded that the development is successfully completed.

KSTAR(Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research) 토카막에 설치되어 있는 ICRF(Ion Cyclotron Range Frequency) 시스템을 이용한 방전세정을 2008년에 이어 2009 KSTAR 플라즈마 campaign 동안에도 시행하였다. ICRF 시스템을 이용한 방전세정인 ICWC(Ion Cyclotron Wall Cleaning)는 ITER와 DEMO 같은 초전도 자석을 이용하는 토카막에서 토카막 shot 중간에 자장을 낮추지 않고 바로 방전 세정을 할 수 있는 방법이다. 토카막에서 방전세정은 탄소나 산소 화합물과 같은 불순물을 제거하여 방사에 의한 플라즈마 냉각을 막고 토카막 초기 start-up시 진공 챔버 벽면으로부터 의도하지 않은 연료주입을 제거하는 역할을 한다. 본 연구에서는 ICWC 방전 세정 플라즈마의 밀도특성과 균일도를 간섭계와 $H_{\alpha}$ line 세기를 통해 관측하고 RGA를 통해서 C, $H_2O$, $O^2$ 불순물의 제거량을 파악하는 한편 토카막의 신뢰성 있는 start-up을 위해 요구되는 벽면에서 토카막 방전가스의 제거량을 HD양을 통해서 조사하였다. 플라즈마 선적분 밀도는 약 $1{\sim}3{\times}10^{17}#/m^2$로 측정되었는데 이는 보통 He을 이용한 방전세정 플라즈마의 밀도에 해당한다. 한편 $H_{\alpha}$ line의 세기를 통해 ICWC 방전 플라즈마의 균일도를 살펴본 결과 안테나 전류띠의 중간이 아닌 끝부분에서 $H_{\alpha}$의 세기가 큰 것으로 나타났는데 이는 ICWC 플라즈마가 Inductive 방전보다는 capacitive 방전에 의해 생성되는 것으로 추정된다. ICWC 방전에서 C, $H_2O$, $O_2$ 불순물의 제거율은 각각 약 $4.2{\times}10^{-5}\;mbar{\cdot}l/sec$, $1.4{\times}10^{-3}\;mbar{\cdot}l/sec$ 그리고 $1.72{\times}10^{-4}\;mbar{\cdot}l/sec$로 각각 나타났는데 ICWC shot이 진행될수록 이 양은 점점 줄어들었다. 대표적인 He/$H_2$, He ICWC 방전 shot인 2118, 2123 shot에서 벽면에서 $D_2$의 제거율은 각각 약 $0.12\;mbar{\cdot}l/sec$와 $3.9{\times}10^{-3}\;mbar{\cdot}l/sec$로 나타났다. 이는 수소의 첨가로 인해 HD의 형태로 $D_2$의 제거율이 증가되었기 때문이다. 한편 $H_2$의 첨가는 챔버 벽면에 흡착되는 $H_2$ 양을 또한 증가시키므로 차후에 $H_2$ 만을 제거하는 He ICWC를 수행해야 할 것이다.

Korean Space Launch Vehicle (KSLV-II) Propellant Supply System charges liquid oxygen and kerosene to each propellant tank for the stages. To charge the launch vehicle propellant tank safety, the propellant charge flow rates and scenarios should be defined. First, the Propellant Supply System was modeled with 1D flow analysis program. The control valve capacity and orifice size were calculated by performing the 1D steady state simulation. Second, the 1D transient simulation was performed by using the steady state simulation results. As propellants were being charged at the each tank, the increased tank liquid level decreases the charge flow rate. Consequently, the proposed supply system satisfies the required design charging conditions.

Turbopump test for a 30-ton-thrust liquid rocket engine was carried out using real-propellant. Liquid oxygen, kerosene, cold hydrogen gas were used for the oxidizer pump, the fuel pump, the turbine, respectively. The turbopump was run stably at the design and off-design conditions and the performance requirements were satisfied, which implies that the turbopump development at the engine subsystem level is successfully accomplished in the point of performance validation. This paper presents the results of a test where the turbopump was run for 75 seconds at three operating modes. In terms of performance characteristics of pumps and turbine, the results from turbopump assembly test using real-propellant showed a good agreement with those from the turbopump component tests using simulant working fluid.

Two types of polyurethane-acrylate polymer were synthesized by reaction of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate(HEMA), acrylamide(AA), and polyurethane prepolymer. Water-soluble cationic polyurethane/acrylate retention aids were prepared by using polyurethane-acrylate, benzyl chloride and distilled water. The retention, drainage and strength properties of the retention aids were investigated. The retention of cationic polyurethane/acrylate type retention aids maintained around 70 % regardless of nm. COD value of white water was much reduced by adding the retention aids to it. Drainage property was also improved by addition of the retention aids. In addition, specific compression strength of the paper was improved a little by addition of the retention aids. PU-HEMA type showed better performance than PU-AA in terms of compression strength of the paper.
