The winter case of the near-field dilution at the Masan outfalls has been studied by field measurements and CORMIX model simulations. Dilution rates of the wastewater discharge in winter were obtained by a salinity deficit method using the field data observed in the neap tidal period of February, 1999. The observed dilution rates in winter season were found to be very high in the range of 90～130 due to the isopycnal mixing of ambient density compared with the summer range of 30～40 under weak neap tidal currents. The results of CORMIX model simulations also show that the winter dilution rates under a weak ambient current(Ua=6.0ms/s) were increased by 3-fold of the summer dilution rates. However, the difference between two seasons becomes small by 30% under a strong current(Ua=15.5cm/s). This result indicates that the dilution and hydrodynamic mixing process of the effluents are more influenced by ambient crossflow condition than by ambient density stratification at the outfalls site.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) have been used for various purposes in multiple fields, such as observation, communication relaying, and information acquisition. Nowadays, UAVs must have high performance in order to acquire more precise information in larger amounts than is now possible while performing for long periods. At present, domestically, a high-altitude long-endurance UAV (HALE UAV) for long-term flight in the stratosphere has been developed in order to replace some functions of the satellite. In this study, as a part of structural soundness evaluation of the aircraft structure developed for the HALE UAV, the structural soundness of the fasteners of the fuselage and tail is evaluated by calculating the margin of safety(M.S). The result confirms the validity of the design of the fasteners in the aircraft structure of the UAV.

Land-Ocean Interactions in the Coastal Zone (LOICZ) models for nutrient budgets were used to estimate the seasonal capacity of the Youngsan Estuary and Youngam-Geumho Estuary to sink and/or supply nutrients such as dissolved inorganic phosphorus (DIP) and nitrogen (DIN) to provide an understanding of the behavior of the coupled biogeochemical cycles of phosphorus and nitrogen in the estuaries (Youngsan Estuary, Youngam-Geumho Estuary) near Mokpo Harbor. During non-stratified periods (May, September, and November, 2008), simple three-box models were applied in each sub-region of the system, while a two-layer box model was applied during on-site observation of stratification development (July, 2008). The resulting mass-balance calculation indicated that even after large discharges from artificial lakes (in May and July), DIP influxes due to a mixing exchange ($V_{X-3}$, or $V_{deep}$) were more than terrigenous loads, indicating the backward transportation of nutrients from a marine source. The model results also indicated that for nutrient loads (DIP and DIN fluxes) in September, an extreme congestion of nutrients occurred around the mouths (sub-region III of the model) of the estuaries, possibly due to an imbalance in physical circulations between the estuaries and offshore locations. In November, the Youngam-Geumho Estuary, into which freshwater was discharged from artificial lakes (Youngam and Geumho Lake), showed nutrient enrichment in the water column, but the Youngsan Estuary showed nutrient depletion. In conclusion, to efficiently control water quality in the estuaries near Mokpo Harbor, integrated environmental management programs should be implemented. I.e., the reduction of nutrient loads from land basins as well as the deposit of nutrient loads into adjacent coastal lines.

Seismic geotomography method was performed to verify rock-filled settlement and its stability in No.38+0 profile and No.40+0 profile. The velocity distributions of geotomography method expressed the quantitative value of the ground conditions. The rock-filled layer and in-situ sediments layer are clearly divided on the basis of seismic velocity 2100 m/sec which is derived from the results of seismic geotomography and boring. Current rock-filled settlement conditions are somewhat different from designed settlement estimation line. Seismic geotomography represents current settlement conditions as a quantitative analysis.

지금까지 통상적으로 사용하고 있는 Plasma Lighting System(이하 PLS)의 마그네트론 구동용 고전압, 고전류 전원장치는 성층 철심 HVT를 이용한 방식을 적용하고 있다. 이 방식은 상용 주파수를 사용하므로, 승압트랜스포머나 배 전압용의 커패시터를 대형으로 하기 때문에 고중량, 저효율 및 출력의 한계성과 광출력에서 플리커현상 둥의 단점을 지닌다. 이의 해결책으로 최근 인버터 방식의 전원장치를 PLS에 적용 하고자 하는 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 설계한 PLS 마그네트론 구동을 위한 고전압, 고전류 전원장치는 기존의 스위칭 기술을 이용 낮은 스위칭 손실의 고속 스위칭을 통한 시스템의 소형, 경량화 및 고전력밀도를 가지도록 하였고 $\mu$-com을 이용하여 Micro-wave의 누설에 따른 사고를 방지하기 위하여 광 검출과 마그네트론 온도 검출 등의 시스템 보호 기능을 가지고 있으며, 고전압 출력을 고저 항으로 분압하고 PWM 제어기에 피드백하여 매우 안정된 출력 전압이 얻어지도록 하였다. 또한 출력 전류를 제한 할 수 있게 하여 광량 조절이 가능하도록 하였다.

Use of artificial circulation system has become popular in Korean reservoirs to control algal blooms and subsequent color, taste and odor problems in drinking water. It was found that the most of aeration system in Korean reservoirs are under-designed compared to existing installations in US and Australia. This was especially true for larger reservoirs greater than $5{\times}10^7m^3$ in volume since it is common to install the system in the vicinity of intake areas only. Consequently, successful cases of artificial circulation systems operations are limited to few small reservoirs less than $1{\times}10^7m^3$. It is suggested that the design methods need to be developed considering physical characteristics and water quality kinetics inside of reservoirs. Also operation methods of artificial circulation systems need to be established considering the water quality dynamics, stratification and morphological characteristics of reservoirs. Finally, it is suggested to maintain comprehensive and long term monitoring programs to validate the application of artificial circulation system in reservoirs.

Most aircraft cruise in the stratosphere at which temperature is below $-50^{\circ}C$ md, as a result, the surface of aircraft can be iced up. Ice on the wing can change aerodynamic characteristic and results in the deterioration of its performance. Ice on the engine inlet increases the possibility of compressor blade damage and affects the performance and safety of the engine. This paper focused on the development of icing simulation device for analyzing effect of icing on engine performance. Icing simulation tests were conducted with a liquid air system and a icing simulation device and results show that icing could be simulated with this system.

This study is conducted to improve the efficiency of a thermal storage tank. The thermal storage tank was designed to store heat energy that obtained from the solar or the others heat sources. However, it has difficulties in storing heat with nonuniform temperature through the entire tank with respect to the vertical direction, This study is focused on the thermal stratification to improve thermal comfort for the resident in house. To enhance temperature stratification of the tank, a distributor was designed and installed in the middle of the storage tank vertically. The vertically designed distributor could supply the return water with stratified temperature in the storage tank with respect to the height. The water velocity from the distributor hole is the same with the other outlet in the distributor. However, gravity effect on the flow in the storage tank is much higher than that of the velocity effect due to that Froude Number is less than 1. During the heat charging process in the storage tank, temperature maintained with little difference with respect to the height. However the charging process takes long time to get a effective temperature for the heating or hot water supply because of all of water in the storage tank needs to be heated.

Off the southwest coast of Korea, changes in hydrographic fields from stratified state of summer to a vertically homogeneous one of winter appeared to occur most actively in November. During this transitional period coincident thermal and salinity fronts are formed along the boundary between the two water masses of cold coastal water with low salinity and of the Tsushima Current Water. Generally frontal zone lies where the bottom depth is about 70-90m except for the central region of the Cheju Strait in which the influence of the Tsushima Current is weak. Result of the drift bottle experiment in November 1930 supports the existence of the westward coastal current.
