In this study, we analyzed the combustion characteristics of four different floor covering materials(wood, monorium, laminatedpaper, and varnish-laminated paper) with regard to their ignitibility, thermal characteristics and flame retardancy by using an ignition temperature tester, a dual cone calorimeter, a thermogravimetric analyzer and limited oxygen index, for their fire risk assessment. According to the result, monorium had the lowest ignition temperature of $325^{\circ}C$ and the laminated paper and the varnish-laminated paper promptly ignited before 7s. Further, the wood showed the largest total heat release of $100MJ/m^2$, and the varnish-laminated paper showed the highest peak heat release rate. From the thermogravimetric analysis, it was shown that all specimens underwent rapid weight loss at $300{\sim}400^{\circ}C$. The limit oxygen indices of the laminated paper and the varnish-laminated paper were in the range of 20~21%, while it was 34% for wood. This study enabled us to confirm that wood, laminated paper and varnish-laminated paper have a relatively short ignition time and are easy to burn but they all have low heat release. In contrast, wood showed the lowest fire risk among them and had excellent flame retardancy but with high heat release.

This study investigates the dynamic relationship between KOSPI200 stock index and stock index futures and stock index option markets which is its derived from KOSPI200 stock index. We use 5-minutes rate of return data from 2012. 06 to 2014. 12. To empirical analysis, this study use autocorrelation and cross-correlation analysis as a preliminary analysis and then following Stoll and Whaley(1990) and Chan(1992), the multiple regression is estimated to examine the lead-lag patterns between the stock index and stock index futures and option markets by Newey and West's(1987) Empirical results of our study shows as follows. First, there exist a strong autocorrelation in the KOSPI200 stock index before 10minutes but a very weak autocorrelation in the stock index futures and option markets. Second, there is a strong evidence that stock index future and option markets lead KOSPI200 stock index in the cross-correlation analysis. Third, based on the multiple regression, the stock index futures and option markets lead the stock index prior to 10-15 minutes and weak evidence that the stock index leads the future and option markets. This results show that the market efficient of KOSPI200 stock index market is improved as compared to the early stage of stock index future and option market.

The thermodynamic efficiency characteristics of R245fa and water as working fluids have been analyzed for the electricity generation system applying the Rankine cycle to recover the waste heat of the exhaust gas from a diesel engine for the propulsion of a large ship. The theoretical calculation results showed that the cycle, system, and total efficiencies were improved as the turbine inlet pressure was increased for R245fa at a fixed mass flow rate. In addition, the net work rate generated by the Rankine cycle was elevated with increasing turbine inlet pressure. In the case of water, however, the maximum system efficiencies were demonstrated at relatively small ratios of mass flow rate and turbine inlet pressure, respectively, compared to those of R245fa. The optimized values of the net power of the cycle, system efficiency, and total efficiency for water had relatively large values compared to those of R245fa.

Graphene has been a valuable candidate for use as electrodes for supercapacitors. In order to improve the surface area of graphene, three-dimensional graphene was synthesized on porous Ni nanostructure using thermal chemical vapor deposition and microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition. The structural and chemical characterization of synthesized graphene was performed by scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. It was confirmed that three-dimensional and high-crystalline multilayer graphene onto various substrates was synthesized successfully.

Korean traditional Ondol with the sensible heat storage medium has been for a long time used as residential heating system, in these days the concrete Ondol without the heat storage medium was realized as the heating system in the private houses and the apartments. This floor heating system is good for our health. But the concrete Ondol is not desirable for the energy saving and for the maintenance of comfortable room temperature because the heat storage medium is not employed in the concrete Ondol. And as the hot water circulating pipes are buried under the concrete floor, the concrete Ondol system has some kind of problems to be improved. Therefore the new type of Ondol system was developed in this study. And the new Ondol was consisted of latent heat storage material as heat storage medium with a great heat capacity and bioceramics as medium to maintain comfortable room temperature. In this study, the heat transfer characteristics of latent heat storage-bioceramic Ondol was analyzed theoretically.

The objective of this study was to investigate heating performance characteristics of electric heat pump system in a fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV). In order to analyze heating performance characteristics of electric heat pump system with plate-type heat exchanger using stack coolant to evaporate the refrigerant, R-134a, each component was installed and tested under various operating conditions, such as air inlet temperature of inner condenser and compressor speed. When the air inlet temperature of inner condenser was varied from $0.0^{\circ}C$ to $-20.0^{\circ}C$, heating capacity was not quite different due to similar temperature gap between inlet and outlet of inner condenser with electric-driven expansion valve (EEV). However, COP increased until certain EEV opening, especially under 45.0%, because of decreasing power consumption. According to the compressor speed variation from 2,000 to 4,000 RPM, heating capacity and COP were found to have opposite trend. In the future works, stack coolant conditions as the heat source for tested heat pump system were analyzed with respect to heating performance, such as heating capacity and COP.

대기압 플라즈마는 공기중에서 방전이 가능하고, 이때 생성되는 활성산소종(ROS)과 활성질소종(RNS)을 적절히 이용하면 살균은 물론 제독이 가능하다. 특히 신경작용제나 수포작용제 등의 화학물질은 박테리아 포자, 세균, 바이러스 등의 생물작용제에 비해 더 많은 에너지와 시간이 요구된다. 현재 군이나 의료 시설에서는 과산화수소를 이용한 제독이나 염소계 표백제 성분으로 구성된 수용성 제독제를 이용하지만, 플라즈마의 경우는 단순히 기체를 방전하여 제독에 이용할 수 있으므로 보다 제독 시스템을 간단하게 구성할 수 있다. 하지만 대기압 방전시 방전전압을 낮추기 위해 헬륨과 알곤등의 기체를 공급하여 사용할 경우 부가적인 시스템의 규모가 커져 활용에 제한이 따른다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 대기중에 존재하는 질소, 산소 등을 이온화시키기 위해 10-25kHz의 주파수에서 4.5kV의 8us 펄스전원을 인가하여 공기 플라즈마를 얻고, 열에 의한 분해효과를 제거하기 위해 플라즈마의 기체온도를 20도로 유지시켰다. 플라즈마의 특성은 방출광 분석법을 이용하여 떨림온도를 계산하였고, 질소와 오존의 농도를 동시에 관찰하였다. 분해된 화학작용제는 기체분석기(Gas Chromatography)를 통해 표준 오염농도대비 잔류한 양을 측정함으로써 제독효율을 계산하였다.

우리나라의 경우 강수량이 지역별로 편중되면서 국지적 가뭄이 발생하고, 지형적 특성으로 상습가뭄지역 피해가 확대되고 있다. 더불어 강수의 시기별 편차가 커지면서 봄 가뭄 증가 및 장기 기후변화 시나리오도 가뭄 발생 가능성 증가를 전망하고 있다. 그러나 우리나라의 경우 가뭄대응 대책 마련시 선제적인 가뭄대응 대책 마련보다, 사후복구·단기대책을 중심으로 가뭄대응능력을 추진하고 있어 예방중심의 가뭄대응능력의 한계점을 지니고 있다. 본 연구에서는 선제적 예방 중심의 가뭄대응 전략을 위해 물순환 모델을 기반으로 수원별 가뭄대응능력을 평가하고, 지역별로 산정된 용수공급가능일수를 기반으로 수문학적 가뭄취약지도를 작성하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이때 용수공급가능일수는 가뭄시나리오(20년, 30년, 50년 등)를 설정하여 시나리오별 공급가능일수를 평가하여 시공간적 가뭄취약성 분석이 가능한 모형으로 확장하였다. 수문학적 가뭄취약지도의 경우 정책결정자, 업무사용자 등 효율적 정보 제공이 가능할 것으로 판단되며, 지역별로 현안사항 도출 및 개선방안을 위한 기초자료로 활용 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
