The purpose of this research is to obtain the information of the development process of a vaporizing GDI spray using exciplex fluorecence method. Fluorobenzene/DEMA system was used as the exciplex-forming dopants. The 2-D spray images of liquid and vapor phases were acquired, and the behavior of both phases was analyzed by the image processing. The experiment was performed at the three different ambient perssures and the ambient temperature of 273K and 473K. As the result of this work, it was found that the development characteristics of GDI spray have stronger effect on the ambient pressure than on the ambient temperature. With an increase of ambient pressure, the distribution of vapor phase was decreased and the concentration of that was denser. Two regions, namely cone and mixing regions could be identified from those resulrs.

The concentration and spatial distribution of vapor phases in DI (Direct Injection) gasoline spray were measured quantitatively by exciplex fluorescence method. Fluorobenzene and DEMA (diethylmethylamine) in a solution of hexane were used as the exciplex-forming dopants. The fluorescence intensity of vapor phase were obtained by ICCD camera with the appropriate filter The relationship between fluorescence intensity and vapor concentration was induced fer the purpose of a quantitative analysis. The 2-D vapor/liquid images of fuel spray were captured under the evaporation condition, and the spatial distribution of vapor concentration was obtained. The spatial distribution of liquid phase had hollow-cone shape. And the vapor phase was widely distributed in the whole spray. The behavior of vapor phase was significantly affected by second flow such as entrainment, vortex, while that of liquid phase was scarcely affected.

The goals of this study are to apply exciplex method to the visualization of the fuel spray of a diesel engine and to investigate the liquid phase of fuel spray that injected at the various tips of a fuel injector. This study provides the informations for the improvement of the diesel injection system and the structures of diesel spry with the boiling of fuel droplets in combustion chamber by the exciplex method. Hexame was used as fuel for approximation to injection condition of the engine. And naphthalene and TMDP were added to the fuel for the visualization by exciplex method. Experimental injectors were 4hole, 8hole, and 1hole impinging injectors. In the injection condition of actual engine the exciplex was sufficient to catch the liquid phase signal. The spray penetration of impinging injector was small than that of actual 4 and 8hole injector but atomization was better. The upper bound of impinging injector was determined by the geometry of a cylinder head and the lower bound was determined by spray angle. On impinging injector the atomization was better at the edge of disk than at center of disk and also the mixing with environmental gas was better.

액정(liquid crystal)은 고체 결정과 등방성 액체의 사이에서 발견되는 중간형태의 물질상태이다. 액정은 일반 유체와 같이 흐를뿐만 아니라 고체가 갖는 이방성 특징을 동시에 갖는다. 액정의 점도는 일반적으로 10-100 Cp 이며 점도가 낮은 기계류 윤활유에 해당한다. 이방성의 특징은 분자들의 긴 간격의 배열에 기인되며 광학적 birefringence로 쉽게 나타나진다. 액정은 세가지 형태로 나누어진다. Thermotropic 액정은 순수화합물이나 균질한 혼합물에서 관찰되는데 온도의 변화에 따라 상이 벼노하한다. 일반적으로 이 액정은 nematic, cholestric, 그리고 smectic 상으로 구분되며 Fig.2에 나타나 있다. Lyotropic 액정은 비누와 같은 amphiphilic분자들이 물과같은 적당한 용매에 용해할 때 나타난다. 이 액정은 Thermotropic 액정과 달리 농도가 상을 결정하는 주요한 변수이다. Polymer 용액은 액정배열을 가지며 Polymeric 액정이라고 불린다. 지금까지 액정에 관해 알려진 지식은 thermotrpic 액정에 관한 것이며 여기서는 이 액정에 관해서만 기술한다.

This study was investigated to find storage material of thermal energy storage system for a vehicle with the basic material of $Ba(OH)_2{\cdot}8H_2O$ and to test a feasibility of it. Experiment was investigated usability for long time and state change and thermal property after cycle with $Ba(OH)_2{\cdot}8H_2O$ and misxture doping additive to it. The result of this research indicated the mixture adding $Sr(OH)_2{\cdot}8H_2O$ to $Ba(OH)_2{\cdot}8H_2O$ have high feasibility as storage material for thermal energy storage system. This mixture did not exhibit the state change during 1300 cycles and the rate of decrease of heat realese energy was about 2%, relatively low value.

This study presents the thermal behaviors of glass beads-rubber mixtures depending on the volumetric fraction of each constituent and relative size between them. The transient plane source method is used to measure the effective thermal conductivity of mixtures. The discrete element method (DEM) and the thermal network model are integrated to investigate the particle-scale mechanism of heat transfer in granular packings. Results show that 1) the effective thermal conductivity decreases as the rubber fraction increases, and 2) the relative size between two solid particles dominates the spatial configuration of inter-particle contact condition that in tum determines the majority of heat propagation path through particle contacts. For the mixtures whose volumetric fraction of rubber is identical, the less conductive materials (e.g., rubber particles) with a large size facilitate heat transfer in granular materials. The experimental results and particle-scale observation highlight that the thermal conduction behavior is dominated not only by the volumetric fraction but also the spatial configuration of each constituent.

Hydrogen isotope exchange in mixtures of $H_2O/D_2$, $H_2O/D_2O$, or $D_2O/H_2$ can be facilitated under electrical discharge. For example, a simple DC corona discharge through the mixture creates a plasma in which the reactants are excited energetically. The reactants in such plasma, due to increase in population of excited quantum levels or due to production of radicals or ions, undergo very rapid chemical reactions even at ambient temperature. The isotope exchange reaction of hydrogen(H) and deuterium(D) produces the third kind of heavy water(HDO) and isotopic hydrogen gas(HD), as shown in $D_2+H_2O{\rightarrow}HD$ K=11.257(at $25^{\circ}C$) The reaction products can be detected with temporal resolution using the Fourier transform infrared(FTIR) absorption spectroscopy. Since $H_2O$, $D_2O$ and HDO are all infrared active with different absorption peaks, FTIR proves to be a useful tool for monitoring the reaction. Experimental results show that the electrical method is indeed a useful means to promote the reaction, showing a better efficiency than traditional catalytic methods.
