The effects of temperature and flow rate of eluent on the separation of adjacent lighter lanthanide pairs (La : Ce, Ce : Pr, Pr: Nd) have been studied with displacement chromatography. Two serial columns packed with Amberlite 120 cation exchange resin are used for loading and separation. The retaining ion is $H^+$ ion and the eluent is 0.012M and 0.015M of EDTA solution. The columns and the eluent are maintained at the temperature of 90$^{\circ}C$ and pressurized to reduce vaporizing in the ion-exchange resin column. The eluated solution is analyzed directly with ICP-AES. The separation factors of the lanthanide pairs, La: Ce, Ce :Pr, and Pr: Nd, are 4.6, 2.8, and 1.9, respectively and are higher than that from theoretical calculation at 25$^{\circ}C$. When the flow rate is reduced from 2.5 ml/min to 1.5 ml/min, the HETP is reduced from 1.60 cm to 0.88 cm. The separation efficency can be improved at lower flow rate of eluent and higher operating temperature. The recoveries of pure lanthanides than 99.9% are 49∼77% from this separation.

티타네이트 나노튜브는 10 nm 이내의 내경과 0.74nm 정도의 크기를 갖는 층상 구조를 이루고 있어 높은 비표면적을 이용한 수소의 물리적 흡착뿐만 아니라 Ti-H 결합에 의한 화학적 흡착이 동시에 가능하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 전이금속 원소 중 Ni을 첨가한 티타네이트 나노튜브를 합성하고 수소저장특성을 평가하고자 하였다. 티타네이트 나노튜브는 저온균일침전법으로 제조된 침상형의 $TiO_2$ 분말을 출발원료로 염화니켈을 $TiO_2$의 질량 비로 1~5wt% 첨가하고 10 M의 NaOH 수용액에서 일정시간 혼합한 후 $150^{\circ}C$에서 24시간 수열합성하였다. 합성된 분말의 입자형상 및 결정상은 전자현미경과 X-선 회절 시험을 이용하여 분석하였고, 입자의 비표면적은 액체질소흡착법을 이용하여 측정하였다. 전자현미경 관찰결과 이온교환 전후의 입자형상은 큰 변화가 없었던 반면 이온교환 후 입자의 비표면적이 30% 이상 증가함을 확인하였다. 특히 Ni의 도핑량이 증가함에 토라 입자의 비표면적도 함께 증가하였으며, 전자현미경 관찰결과 더욱 미세한 나노튜브가 형성됨을 확인할 수 있었다. P-C-T를 이용하여 측정한 순수한 티타네이트 나노튜브의 수소저장량이 20기압에서 1.2 wt% 정도로 측정된 반면 Ni이 5 wt% 첨가된 티타네이트 나노튜브의 경우 같은 압력에서 1.6 wt%를 나타내었다.

An ejector is a fluid transportation device that operates based on the principle that a high-pressure fluid is spouted through a driving pipe and the pressure of a low-pressure fluid is increased through exchange of momentum with a low-pressure gas. Steam-steam ejectors have been widely used for suction, mixture, and dehydration. They can be easily used in places where fluid moves and expenses are reasonable. In addition, such ejectors are a semi-permanent fluid device that requires little maintenance. In this study, we present an optimized design by analyzing what cannot be obtained through experiments in order to improve the device performance, analyze general contents of a flow by acquiring exact test data on specific and interpretative areas using more advanced experimental techniques, and identify the flow characteristics of a branch pipe by examining the validity of experiments using computer hydrodynamics simulations.

Laser ablation ion trap mass spectrometry (LAITMS) was developed for the analysis of metal and ceramic samples. For this study, XeCl excimer laser (308 nm) was used for ablating the samples and ITMS was used as a detector. Samples were introduced from outside of a ring electrode and this way of sample introduction was very effective for solid samples when laser ablation was employed. Helium gas was used as a buffer gas, and its effect on sensitivity and some parameters (buffer gas pressure, ion storage time, and cut-off RF voltage) were studied. The optimized conditions were $1{\times}10^{-4}$ Torr of buffer gas pressure, 100 ms of ion storage time and $1150V_{p-p}$ of cut-off RF voltage. From that results, copper (Cu) and molybdenum (Mo) metals were tested with LAITMS and the mass spectra of these pure metals were compared with the natural abundance of isotope ratio. We also examined ceramic samples ($Al_2O_3$, $ZrO_2$) and represented the result of elemental analysis.

Rates for the aquation of trans-[Cr(tn)$_2Cl_2]^+$ and trans-[Cr(en)(tn)Cl$_2$]^+$ ions in aqueous acidic solution have been measured by spectrophotometric method at various temperatures and pressures. Activation volumes are negative and lie in the limited range -1.7 ∼ -2.9cm$^3$mol$^{-1}$ or the complex ions. Activation entropies and activation compressibility coefficients are small negative values. From the results of thermodynamic parameters, it can be inferred that the aquation of the complex ions proceed through an associative interchange(Ia) mechanism. Furthermore, the information on possible transition state structure and reaction paths can be obtained by considering total stabilization energy of the hypothetical intermediates within the framework of angular overlap model. It is found that the theoretically predicted mechanism is consistent with the experimentally observed results.

This paper concerns the study of a two-stage binary absorption cycle employing the refrigerant/absorbent combinations of $LiBr/H_2O$ and $NH_3/H_2O$. This cycle consists of coupling two single-effect absorption cycles so that the first stage absorber and condenser produces heating water to evaporate refrigerant in the evaporator of the second stage. The effect of operating variables such as evaporator temperature, condenser and absorber temperature, and generator temperature on the coefficient of performance and temperature lift have been studied for two-stage binary absorption heat pump systems. It is found that this cycle has a large temperature lift at $105^{\circ}C$ of optimum generator temperature to obtain $50^{\circ}C$ of condenser temperature.

This paper aims to examine the effect of rotational fluid motion about the efficiency of the gas - liquid ejector, which is a core unit in a ship equilibrium water treatment system. The ejector is a device for injecting ozone into ship equilibrium by the negative pressure generated by exchange of momentum between water and ozone. The existing ejector ejects the driving fluid with a simple form. In this paper, however, a rotation induction device is applied to the driving nozzle so that the driving fluid can be rotated and injected. To investigate the flow characteristics by the rotational movement of the driving fluid, CFD was used. The pressure and flow rate of the driving fluid, the negative pressure and suction flow rate of the suction fluid in the suction part, and the discharge pressure were predicted. On the basis of the results, the efficiency of the ejector using the rotation induction system was 22.25%, which was about 1.7% better than that of the existing ejector. Finally, to verify the feasibility of the CFD, an experiment was conducted on the ejector using the rotation induction device and the results were similar to those of the CFD.

In this paper, the effects of the delta winglet vortex generator, the airfoil vortex generator and the guide vanes on the friction factor and the Colburn factor in the fin-tube flow were studied. The vortex generator and guide vane were non-dimensionalized based on the channel height and tube diameter, and locations were selected according to the authors' suggestions. The Reynolds number based on the inlet velocity and the tube diameter was selected in the range of 1400-8000. As a result, the friction factor resulted in a 4.7% decrease in guide vanes at the Reynolds number 8000 over the conventional fin-tube, and the Colburn factor resulted in a 33% increase in the delta winglet vortex generator at the Reynolds number 3800 over the conventional fin-tube.

The heat generation rate in a telecommunications cabinet keeps increasing due to the increased usage of mobile devices. Insufficient removal of the heat increases the cabinet temperature, which results in the malfunction of the electronic devices. In this study, tests were conducted on aluminum and plastic heat exchangers for cooling a telecommunications cabinet, and the results were compared with theoretical predictions. The aluminum heat exchanger comprised counter flow parallel channels with 4.5-mm pitch, and the plastic heat exchangers comprised cross or cross-counter flow triangular channels with 2.0-mm pitch. The volume of the cross flow heat exchanger was the same as that of the aluminum heat exchanger, and the volume of the cross-counter heat exchanger was 33% larger than that of the aluminum heat exchanger. The results show that the heat transfer rate is the highest for the cross-counter heat exchanger and lowest for the aluminum one. The temperature efficiency of the cross-counter heat exchanger was 56% higher than that of the aluminum one and 20% higher than that of the cross flow heat exchanger. The pressure drop of the cross-counter heat exchanger was approximately the same as that of the aluminum one. The heat exchange efficiency was the highest for the cross-counter heat exchanger and lowest for the cross flow heat exchanger. The theoretical analysis somewhat overestimated or underestimated the data.

Background : Pressure-controlled ventilation (PCV) is frequently used recently as the initial mode of mechanical ventilation in the patients with respiratory failure. Theoretically, because of its high initial inspiratory flow, pressure-controlled ventilation has lower peak inspiratory pressure and improved gas exchange than volume-controlled ventilation (VCV). But the data from previous studies showed controversial results about the gas exchange. Moreover, the comparison study between PCV and VCV with various inspiration : expiration time ratios (I : E ratios) is rare. So this study was performed to compare the respiratory mechanics and gas exchange between PCV and VCV with various I : E raitos. Methods : Nine patients receiving mechanical ventilation for respiratory failure were enrolled. They were ventilated by both PCV and VCV with various I : E ratios (1 : 2, 1 : 1.3 and 1.7 : 1). $FiO_2$, tidal volume, respiratory rate and external positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) were kept constant throughout the study. After 20 minutes of each ventilation mode, arterial blood gas, airway pressures, expired $CO_2$ were measured. Results : In both PCV and VCV, as the I : E ratio increased, the mean airway pressure was increased, and $PaCO_2$ and physiologic dead space fraction were decreased. But P(A-a)$O_2$ was not changed. In all three different I : E ratios, peak inspiratory pressure was lower during PCV, and mean airway pressure was higher during PCV. But $PaCO_2$ level, physiologic dead space fraction and P(A-a)$O_2$ were not different between PCV and VCV with three different I : E ratios. Conclusion : There was no difference in gas exchange between PCV and VCV under the same tidal volume, frequency and I : E ratio.
