In this study the effects of particle size and water content on the yields and physical/chemical properties of pyrolytic products were investigated through fast-pyrolysis of yellow poplar. Water content was critical parameters influencing the properties of bio-oil. The yields of bio-oil were increased with decreasing water content. However, the yield of pyrolytic product was not clearly influenced by feedstock's particle size. The water content, pH and HHV (Higher Heating Value) of bio-oil were measured to 20~30%, 2.2~2.4 and 16.6~18.5MJ/kg, respectively. The water content of feedstock was clearly influenced to water content of bio-oil. In terms of bio-char, HHV of them were measured to 26.2~30.1 MJ/kg with high content of carbon over 80%.

Fundamental research of non-isothermic analysis of reaction rate has been carried out for the heat storage system using the thermal decomposition of $Na_2B_4O_7{\cdot}10H_2O$. It was found that the equilibrium temperature of the thermal decomposition reaction was lowered less than 373K in $Na_2B_4O_7{\cdot}10H_2O/Na_2B_4O_7{\cdot}5H_2O$ system, but the heat efficiency was unchanged. The initiation temperature of the reaction was varied from low to high temperature region with heating rate. The reaction order of the dehydration reaction by the thermal decomposition was appeared to be 0.67 by non-isothermic analysis, thereby $Na_2B_4O_7{\cdot}10H_2O$ may be used as a hemical heatstorage material.

External shading devices are well known solar control devices that can help reduce the cooling load of commercial buildings. For this study, experiments were conducted to examine the feasibility of shading devices in reducing both the cooling and heating loads. The influence of sky radiant cooling during winter was verified for the external shading device, internal roller blind, and window. Results can be summarized as follows. The temperature difference between the inner and outer surfaces of the window with the external shading device was 11.8℃ compared to 14.6℃ for one without the external shading device. This 2.8℃ difference was due to heat exchange by sky radiation when the surface temperature of the shading device was lower than the ambient outdoor air temperature. The roller blind resulted in a lower temperature of 0.8℃ compared to the average temperature of the window's air cavity. This was due to heat exchange by sky radiation of the roller blind surfaces. Without shading devices, the outside surface temperature of the window is about 3℃ higher. The study also found that when external shading devices were installed on both the southwest and southeast sides, the outside surface temperature of the windows were lower on the southwest side than the southeast side.

The calculation model for heat transfer analysis of rocket engine combustion chamber considering film-cooling has been established. Convective, radiative heat transfers and film-cooling effect in combustion chamber were evaluated using empirical equations especially for rocket engine combustors, and for heat transfer outward from chamber wall general convective and radiative equations were applied. Structural grid has been generated inside chamber wall for FVM calculations, and transient thermal analyses were carried out by time-marching techniques. LOx/kerosene rocket engine with chamber pressure of 50 bar has been analysed, and it is shown that, in that case, the film-cooling less than 4% remarkably contributes to reduce wall temperature, but the effect of the effect of film-cooling more than about 4% is not significantly increased.

In this paper, near-field source localization algorithm is presented using Matrix Pencil in Uniform Linear Array(ULA). Based on the centrosymmetry of the ULA, the proposed algorithm decouples the steering vectors which allow for the bearing estimation using Matrix pencil. With estimated bearing, the range estimation of each source is consequently obtained by defining 1D MUSIC spectrum. Simulation results are presented to validate the performance of the proposed algorithm.

최근 들어 전 세계적으로 태풍과 가뭄 그리고 국지적인 호우 등의 기상변화로 인하여 수자원 종합적인 개발과 이용계획에 대한 전문적인 예측이 필요하다. 우리나라는 홍수기에 집중적인 강우 발생으로 인하여 평수기와 유입량 차이가 심한 수문특성을 가지고 있어 안정적인 수자원 공급에 대한 장기적인 관점에서 이수와 치수정책을 수립해야 한다. 본 연구는 1985년 1월부터 2008년 12월까지 24년에 해당하는 한정된 기간의 짧은 유출량 자료를 갖는 대청댐 유역에서의 시계열 유입량 특성을 Box-Jenkins모형 또는 ARIMA모형을 적용하여 추계학적 분석을 실시하였다. 월유입량과 같은 비정상성 시계열에 적용될 수 있는 적절한 추계학적 모형을 찾기 위하여 모형의 식별과 모형의 추정, 모형의 검진 등의 3단계에 걸친 분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과 대청댐 월유입량 예측모형으로 승법계절 ARIMA$(0,1,2){\times}(1,1,0)_{12}$이 유도되었으며, 이 모형으로 1, 3, 6, 12개월의 선행기간에 대한 실시간 유입량을 예측하였다. 예측된 유입량을 2008년 실측유입량과 비교한 결과 6개월에 대한 예측의 정확성이 가장 높게 나타났다. 또한 평수기와 홍수기를 구분한 예측도 실시하였으며, 평수기는 1개월 홍수기는 3개월 간격으로 예측하는 것이 가장 적절한 것으로 분석되었다.

As a measure of susceptibility on the combustion instability, thermo-acoustic instabilities in rocket combustion system was considered for the estimation of the operational stability margin. Growth rate, which governs the asymptotic stability behavior of the system, was determined from the dynamic data measured during combustion tests in order to understand the dynamic characteristics of combustor system. Frequency transform technique was first applied to determine the system parameters such as growth rate and/or damping coefficient for an interested mode from the time series pressure data, and the PDFs of pressure amplitude were extracted from the amplitude envelope of pressure oscillation for the stochastic analysis.

In this study, we researched Ni-based bead catalysts for the catalytic thermal decomposition of light hydrocarbons. A Ni-based bead-type catalyst was prepared, and catalytic thermal decomposition performance of light hydrocarbons was evaluated. The 30Ni/Al₂O₃ catalyst exhibited the most superior performance, with the presence of both fibrous and carbon black forms on the catalyst surface. Catalytic performance was evaluated for particles sized between 150-250 and 500 ㎛, with excellent catalytic thermal decomposition properties in the 150-250 ㎛ range. After the reaction, carbon removal through collision between catalysts in the fluidized bed was observed. It was confirmed that as the particle size increases, the amount of carbon removed increases.

A greenhouse heating system to improve heat pump performance using inside and outside air of greenhouse as a heat source selectively and cut $CO_2$ enrichment costs by delay of greenhouse ventilation was developed. In this system, thermal storage modes divided into inside circulation mode using surplus solar energy and outside circulation mode using outside air heat. The thermal storage modes were designed to be switched mutually according to inside greenhouse temperature and six temperature values were input to control the heat pump operating, thermal storage mode switching and greenhouse heating automatically. Operating characteristics of this system were tested in a plastic greenhouse of non-ventilation condition. The results of test showed that the inside circulation mode began at about 11:00 and lasted for about 210 minutes and inside greenhouse temperature was maintained between $20{\sim}28^{\circ}C$ in spite of non-ventilation. System heating COP of the inside circulation mode in the daytime was 3.35, which was 36% and 25% higher than that of the outside circulation modes in the nighttime and daytime respectively.

In the present study, measurements of thermal contact resistance (TCR) were conducted for joints of brass and aluminium cylinders of 30 mm in diameter, 45 mm in length, when their interfaces were; ⅰ) under vacuum, ⅱ) charged with a pure silicone grease and ⅲ) charged with a mixture of silicone grease and powder of aluminium (#325). Also the data were compared with analytical calculations using Fouche's model. The data of TCR for joints under vacuum state varied in the range of (2∼100)${\times}$10$\^$-5/(㎡$^{\circ}C$/W) depending on their surface roughness. When the contact surfaces were carefully ground, a reduction of 30∼50% in TCR was obtained. But the surface treatment with silicone grease gave rise to a reduction of about 5∼10 times more than that of vacuum state. The analytical prediction by Fouche's model showed a good agreement within 10~30%, for the case of contact surface charged with silicone grease.
