Recently, there are quite a lot of attention is drown on the researches related to of Miller method applied high expansion cycle. For this study, high expansion cycles are formed and analyzed with the base view point of thermodynamics, and the features of each factors are also investigated. As a result of analysis, the expansion-compression ratio is expected with a decrease of effective compression ratio as intake valve closing time retarded, however, the decrease of mean effective pressure and its output is accompanied with the counterflow of intake air. Accordingly, as the consequence of such failure, it is expected that an alternative is needed for the realization of high expansion cycles, and the improvement over thermal efficiency. To materialize such cycle, the control system to delay the closing time of intake valve was designed and VVT, the 3 S/B low speed diesel engine, is applied to evaluate the efficiency. The result of the trial shows that there was no significant errors.

The rate for the aquation of $trans-[Cr(tmd)_2FX]^+(X=F^-,\;Cl^-)$ ion in aqueous acidic solution has been measured by spectrophotometric method at various temperatures and pressures. The rate constants are increased with increasing temperatures and pressures. The values of activation entropy are 5.2 eu for $trans-[Cr(tmd)_2F_2]^+$ and -16.62 eu for $trans-[Cr(tmd)_2FCl]^+$ ions. Activation volumes have all negative values and lie in the limited range $-3∼-2\;cm^3mol^{-1}$ for $trans-[Cr(tmd)_2F_2]^+$ and $-8∼-7\;cm^3mol^{-1} for $trans-[Cr(tmd)_2FCl]^+$ ion. From the above results, we may deduce that the mechanism for the aquation of $trans-[Cr(tmd)_2F_2]^+$ and $trans-[Cr(tmd)_2FCl]^+$ ions is interchange-associative mechanism and dissociative mechanism respectively.

The aim of the present study is to explore the possibility of utilizing loess and fly ash as well as activated carbon for the adsorptive removal of PCBs in transformer oil. Here, we investigated the effect of various factors such as temperature (5, 25, 55), contact time (30 min-3 day) and adsorbent does (1, 2.5, 5, 10 g) in detail. It was found that PCBs adsorption rate from transformer oil by activated carbon is more favored than loess at the equilibrium time of 60 minutes. The equilibrium data for both activated carbon and loess is fitted well to the Freundlich isotherm model. The rate constant and activation energy of PCBs adsorption in transformer oil on each adsorbent was analyzed by fitting a kinetic model at 5, 25 and $55^{\circ}C$. From the thermodynamic parameters, the PCBs adsorption process for transformer oil/activated carbon and loess system is spontaneous and endothermic in nature.

In this paper, flow characteristics of R600a in an adiabatic capillary tube were investigated employing the homogeneous flow model. The model is based on fundamental equations of mass, energy and momentum which are solved simultaneously. Two friction factors(Churchill) and viscosity(McAdams) are comparatively used to investigate the flow characteristics. Thermodynamic and transport properties of R600a are calculated employing EES property code. Flow characteristics analysis of R600a in an adiabatic capillary tube is presented to offer the basic design data for the operating parameters. The operating parameters considered in this study include condensation temperature, evaporation temperature, subcooling degree and inner diameter tube of the adiabatic capillary tube. The main results were summarized as follows: condensation and evaporation temperature, inlet subcooling degree and inner diameter tube of an adiabatic capillary tube using R600a have an effect on length of an adiabatic capillary tube. The length of an adiabatic capillary tube using R600a is expressed to the correlation shown in Eq. (15).

We have obtained retention data of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, phenol, and acetophenone at 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 and 50 $^{\circ}C$ in 30/70, 40/60, 50/50, 60/40, 70/30, and 80/20 (v/v %) methanol/water eluents using a $C_18$ phase with a high ligand density. We drew van't Hoff plots from the data, and computed enthalpies and entropies of solute transfer from the mobile to the stationary phase. The cavity formation effect was found the major factor that governs the solute distribution between the mobile and stationary phases. The hydrophobic effect became significant in highly aqueous mobile phases. We also concluded that the Shodex C18-5B stationary phase was a polymer-like phase with a high ligand density, and followed a partially adsorption-like mechanism.

A mathematical model of vapor explosion propagation is presented. The model predict two-dimensional, transient flow fields and energies of the four fluid phases of melt drop, fragmented debris, liquid coolant and vapor coolant by solving a set of governing equations with the relevant constitutive relations. These relations include melt fragmentation, coolant-phase-change, and heat and momentum exchange models. To allow thermodynamic non-equilibrium between the coolant liquid and vapor, an equation of state for oater is uniquely formulated. A multiphase code, TRACER, has been developed based on this mathematical formulation. A set of base calculations for tin/water explosions show that the model predicts the explosion propagation speed and peak pressure in a reasonable degree although the quantitative agreement relies strongly on the parameters in the constitutive relations. A set of calculations for sensitivity studies on these parameters have identified the important initial conditions and relations. These are melt fragmentation rate, momentum exchange function, heat transfer function and coolant phase change model as well as local vapor fractions and fuel fractions.

The adsorption of crystal violet dyes from aqueous solution using the granular activated carbon was investigated. Adsorption experiments were carried out as a function of the adsorbent dose, initial concentration, contact time and temperature. The adsorption characteristic of crystal violet followed Langmuir isotherm. Based on the estimated Langmuir separation factor ($R_L=0.02{\sim}0.106$), this process could be employed as an effective treatment (0 < $R_L$ < 1). The adsorption kinetics followed the pseudo second order model. The values of Gibbs free energy (-1.61~-11.66 kJ/mol) and positive enthalpy (147.209 kJ/mol) indicated that the adsorption process is a spontaneous and endothermic reaction. The isosteric heat of adsorption decreased with increasing of surface loading by the limited adsorbent-adsorbate interaction due to increased surface coverage.

Ketoprofen and ibuprofen are non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug(NSAID) that have analgesic and antipyretic properties. (S)-ketoprofen and (S)-ibuprofen have pharmacological activity, while (R)-ketoprofen and (R)-ibuprofen are either inactive or have side effect. The chiral separation of racemic ketoprofen and ibuprofen enantiomers was carried out by using a Kromasil HPLC column. Some chromatographic parameters (selectivity, resolution, number of theoretical plates and ${\Delta}H$) are calculated under different mobile phase compositions of hexane/t-BME/acetic acid and temperatures. The selectivity, resolution and number of theoretical plates were observed high at $25^{\circ}C$ and the composition of hexane/t-BME/acetic acid (80/20/0.1).

A primary objective in creating a stratified thermal storage is to maintain the thermodynamic quality of energy, so thermally stratified energy can be extracted at temperatures required for target activities. The separation of the thermal energy in heat stores to layers with different temperatures, i.e., the thermal stratification is a key factor in achieving this objective. This paper introduces different methods that have been proposed to characterize the thermal stratification in heat stores. Specifically, this paper focuses on the methods that can be used to determine the ability of heat stores to promote and maintain stratification during the process of charging, storing and discharging. In addition, based on methods using thermal stratification indices, the degrees of stratification of stored energy in Lyckebo rock cavern in Sweden were compared and the applicability of the methods was investigated.

An internal ballistic model to predict the performance of a Polyethylene-GOX (PE-GOX) hybrid motor was proposed and evaluated. A theoretical treatment of the model was followed by detail discussion of each of the factors affecting the overall performance. The present model consists of the governing equations by considering the unsteady burn-back rate of the fuel grain and on-off response characteristics of a oxygen-supply valve. The numerical results using the 4th order Runge-Kutta scheme with temporal physicochemical properties showed good agreements with test results and the global effects of the performance parameters, such as the burning area of the fuel grain, O/F ratio, and etc., on the performance of the motor were analyzed.
