The water sorption isotherms of individual insoluble components of corn starch, isolated soybean protein (ISP) and casein and their binary mixtures of corn starch-lSP and corn starch-casein were measured and analyzed. BET monolayer values and Smith plot parameters from the results of sorption isotherms were calculated by mass balance concept . The comparisons between experimental and predicted values resulted in an error of 2.29% for equilibrium moisture content and an error of 2.95% in monolayer value for the mixture 50% corn starch-50% ISP. On the other hand , for the mixture 50% corn starch-50% casein the errors were 2.66% and-5.34%, respectively.

This experiment was conducted to study the relation between the equilibrium moisture contents and the hygroscopic components in the various tobacco matters such as NC-82, Br-21, R.T.S., and puffed stem. The order of the high equilibrium moisture contents was the puffed stem, R.T.S., NC-82, and Br-21. The H-1 grades of NC-82 and Br-21 contained high contents of total sugar had higher equilibrium moisture contents than others. The moisture contents in NC-82 and Br-21 were increased at higher temperature, $30^{\circ}C$ than $20^{\circ}C$. The grades with high amounts of water extracts and total sugar affected to increase the equilibrium moisture contents in NC-82 and Br-21. In conclusion, the equilibrium contents were related to the structure of tobacco matter, the grades, the temperature, and the amount of some chemical components such as water extracts and total sugar of the leaf tobacco.

일반적으로 PEM 연료전지에서는 수분 균형이 시스템의 효율에 결정적으로 영향을 미치기 때문에, 이에 대한 균형(balance)을 잡는 것이 매우 중요하다. 특히, 촉매 층에서 물이 넘치는 익수현상(flooding)이나 건조현상(drying)이 발생하게 되면 연료전지의 효율이 급격하게 저하하므로, 항상 수분의 균형이 잡히도록 시스템을 제어하는 것이 일반적이다. 이 때,수분의 익수현상이나 건조현상은 PEM 연료전지의 용량과 주위의 환경, 즉 온도와 습도에 많은 영향을 받게 된다. 금번 논문에서는 가정용 규모인 3kW급에서 10kW급까지의 PEM 연료전지를 설치하였을 때, 주위의 환경(온도와 습도)이 수분 이동에 어떠한 영향을 미치는 지를 시간에 따라서 시뮬레이션(simulation)한 결과를 보여주고 있다. 결과에서 유입공기의 온도가 $50^{\circ}C$ 이하일 경우, 고정부하가 5kW급 이하이면 대부분이 건조현상이 발생하였으나, 고정부하가 6kW급 이상이 되면 익수현상이 운전시간이 20분 이내에서 발생하였다. 또한 고정부하를 최고 10kW급까지 올린 경우, 유입공기의 온도가 $50^{\circ}C$까지는 익수현상이 발생하였으나 $60^{\circ}C$ 이상인 경우에는 거의 건조현상이 발생함을 알 수 있었다.

This study was conducted to measure the hydration characteristics at $20^{\circ}C$ and investigated the effect of water to rice ratio(v/w) on the texture properties of cooked rice of ten different varieties based on maturity. Water absorptions during soaking were completed between 30min and 35min at $20^{\circ}C$. The ranges of equilibrium moisture content were between 0.3247g $H_2O/g$ dry matter and 0.3577g H201g dry matter. During the cooking process, the water content of cooked rice increased 6~7% with increased the ratio of water to rice from 1.4 to 1.6(v/w). The hardness(H) of cooked rice decreased, while the stickiness(-H) and -H/H ratio increased with increased ratio of water to rice.

To improve the storage stability of Korean red pepper (Capsicum annuum), the equilibrium moisture content of the powder and effects of irradiation on the capsaicin, capsanthin and microorganisms were investigated during its storage. The equilibrium moisture contents of the powder at $25^{\circ}C$ and relative humidities of 43.7, 53.3, 64.4, 75.4 and 84.3% were 13, 18, 25, 28 and 37%, respectively, and the larger the particle size was, the lower the equilibrium moisture content was under the same storage conditions. Cobalt-60 gamma irradiation degraded partly the capsaicin in red pepper or in solution at dose levels above 500 krad, but did not affect the moisture and capsanthin contents during its storage. Total viable cell count of the powder was around $10^8$ per gram and $D_{10}$ value for the mixed organisms was 210 krad.

Absorption characteristics of green tea powder were investigated. The monolayer moisture content determined by GAB equation was 0.024~0.052 g $H_2O$/g dry solid. The absorption enthalpy was calculated with different particle size and various water activities. It showed that the absorption energy was decreased with increasing water activity but no difference was found on particle size increasement. Among models applied for predicting equilibrium moisture content, Halsey model was the best fit model for green tea powders, showing the lowest prediction deviation of 2.1~4.0%. The prediction model equations for the water activity was established as function of relative humidity, time and temperature. The model equation will be helpful for future work on drying and storage of green tea powder.

During soaking of 4 varieties of Korean soybeans in water at $4-98^{\circ}C$, an equilibrium state was reached after 3 hr at $60-98^{\circ}C$ but no equilibrium state was observed at $4-40^{\circ}C$ during soaking for 10 hrs. The moisture gain of soybeans held a linear relation with the square root of soaking time regardless of soaking temperatures, which indicated that the basic mechanism of water absorption was diffusion of water. The log time to reach a fixed moisture content showed a linear relation with the soaking temperature during soaking of soybeans at $4-60^{\circ}C$. The z-value decreased in proportions to the increase of hydration. The z-value to reach 50% hydration was the same in all soybeans.
