단일벽 탄소나노튜브(SWNT)는 뛰어난 물리적 성질과 화학적 안정성을 가지고 있어서 다양한 분야의 응용이 기대되어 폭넓은 연구가 진행 되고 있다. 특히 SWNT의 전기적 및 기계적 특성들은 SWNT의 직경 및 뒤틀림도(chirality)에 의해 크게 좌우되기 때문에, 합성하는 단계에서 직경 또는 chirality를 제어에 관한 많은 이론적 연구가 진행되어 왔으며, 최근에는 초기 SWNT의 핵생성 단계에서의 촉매의 거동 및 상호 연관성 등에 관한 실험적인 연구결과들이 속속 보고되고 있는 실정이다. 하지만, 아직도 이에 관한 더욱 다양하고 활발한 연구 접근 및 결과들이 필요한 시점이다. 상기 배경을 바탕으로 본 연구에서는 균일한 직경을 갖는 SWNT의 합성을 위한 기초연구로서 SWNT의 직경과 촉매나노입자의 크기의 상호 연관성에 대해 체계적으로 조사하였다. 우선 SWNT합성을 위한 촉매나노입자를 얻기 위해 페리틴(ferritin)용액의 농도 및 스핀코팅 조건을 변화시킴으로써 기판 위에 분산농도를 제어한 후, 대기 열처리를 통하여 촉매나노입자의 농도를 제어하였다. 나노입자의 평균직경은 4 nm 정도로 비교적 균일하였으며, 고농도의 촉매입자는 SWNT의 다발화(bundling)를 유발하였다. 따라서, SWNT와 나노입자 직경의 상호연관성을 조사하기 위해서는 단분산(monodispersed) 된 나노입자를 이용하였으며, 아르곤 분위기에서 추가적으로 고온($900^{\circ}C$) 열처리를 실시함으로써 나노입자의 크기감소를 도모하였다. 실험결과, 열처리 시간의 증가에 따라 입자크기가 감소함을 확인하였으며, 이는 나노입자의 증발에 의한 것으로 예상된다. 다음으로는 열처리를 통하여 직경이 제어된 나노입자를 이용하여 SWNT를 합성한 후 SWNT와 촉매크기 사이의 크기 관계를 조사하였다. SWNT의 합성은 메탄을 원료가스로 열화학증기증착법을 이용하였고, 합성기판으로는 산화실리콘웨이퍼와 퀄츠기판을 이용하였다. 성장한 SWNT의 직경은 AFM을 이용하여 측정하였으며, 퀄츠기판에 수평배향 성장시킨 SWNT를 3차원 구조의 기판으로 전사(transfer)하여, 라만분석이 용이하도록 하였다.

Mono-disperse particles generated by a condensation particle generator are widely used to meet the experimental and industrial needs. The characteristics of particles generated by homogeneous nucleation have been studied experimentally using a laminar flow condensation particle generator. Dry nitrogen gas saturated with oleic acid vapor was cooled well below the saturation temperature causing the highly supersaturated vapor to nucleate. The dependence of GSD(Geometric Standard Deviation), GMD(Geometric Mean Diameter), and the mass concentration of particles on the temperature at the evaporator, flow rate and the temperature condition at condenser was studied. The experimental results show that the mass concentration of particles is affected by the radial temperature profile at condenser. Nucleation at the center of the condenser causes the mass concentration of particles to increase. The experimental results also show that the suppression of additional nucleation by a constant temperature condition at the condenser increases the mean diameter of particle.

We investigated the optical and hydrophobic properties of the deposited silver (Ag) zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorods (NRs) on flexible indium tin oxide (ITO) coated polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates (i.e., ITO/PET). The ZnO NRs were grown by an electrochemical deposition using a sputtered ZnO seed layer and the Ag was deposited by using a thermal evaporator. For comparison, the same fabrication process was carried out on the bare ITO/PET without ZnO NRAs. Due to the discrete surface of ZnO NRs, the deposited Ag was formed as nano-scale particles, while the Ag became film-like for bare ITO/PET. In order to control the size and amount of Ag particles, the Ag deposition time was changed from 100 to 600 s. When the deposition time was increased, the Ag particles became larger and denser, and the absorptance was increased. This enhanced absorptance may be due to the localized surface plasmon resonance of Ag particles. Furthermore, the relatively high hydrophobicity was observed for the deposited Ag on the ZnO NRs/ITO/PET. These improved optical and surface properties are expected to be useful for flexible photovoltaic and optoelectronic devices.

The energy consumed by compressor in gas turbine is equivalent to $30\sim50\%$ of energy produced by turbine and, therefore, research on reducing compression work is important in increasing the efficiency of gas turbine. One of the method to reduce the compression work is to inject small water droplets into the compressor. This method decreases the compression work by decreasing the compressor exit temperature through the evaporation of water. Researches on wet compression, up to now, are focused on thermodynamic analysis of wet compression where the decrease of exit flow temperature and compression work is demonstrated. This paper presents an thermodynamic and aerodynamic analysis of wet compression in centrifugal compressor for microturbine.

This study investigated high school student and chemistry teacher perceptions on the effect of water vapor in the air on evaporation and boiling of water by a questionnaire. In science textbooks evaporation and the boiling of water are related to the vaporization concept, boiling is related to vapor pressure and air pressure, and vapor pressure is related to the vapor concept in the air. High school student and chemistry teacher perceptions on these linkages were compared. Science textbooks were also analyzed for reasons behind these diverse perceptions. Results revealed that a majority of students conceptualized that vapor in the air was related to evaporation and boiling, but were unable to distinguish the evaporation phenomena at the macroscopic level and the evaporation of water molecules at the microscopic level. They also thought that vapor in the air affected vapor pressure and boiling. Although the percentage of teacher scientific conception was higher, a great number of teachers had diverse perceptions on evaporation and boiling just as students had. Common explanations of evaporation and boiling phenomena in science textbooks were at the macroscopic level. Moreover, there were few connections of concepts even if the explanations were at the microscopic level.

본 연구의 목적은 주택의 냉방 및 난방에너지 절약을 위한 적절한 식재계획의 지침을 제시하기 위함이었다. 본 연구의 대상지는 미국 중동부 내륙의 한 도시인 쉬카고(Chicago)의 북서쪽에 위치한 주거지였다. 쉬카고 는 온대 기후대에 속하는 도시로서, 본 연구는 한국 중부지역의 주택들에 있어서 식재를 통해 냉방 및 난방에너지를 절약하고, 또한 그 에너지 절약 으로부터 대기오염물의 배출을 저감하는데 유용한 정보를 제공할 것이라고 사료된다. 본 연구는 주택의 에너지 절약에 기여하는 주택주변 현존 식생 의 차양(Shading), 증발산 및 방풍의 효과를 모델링하였다. 식재로부터 절 약된 에너지의 총비용은 식생피도가 58.9%인 주거블럭에서 1993년 한해동 안 한 가구당 46.3달러였다. 그 중, 증발산효과가 53.7%, 방풍효과가 26.1%, 차양효과가 20.2%를 각각 차지하였다. 한편, 피도가 36.3%인 주거블럭에서 의 연간 총 에너지 절약은 가구당 8.6달러였다. 식생피도가 높은 주거지에 서 식재에 의한 에너지 절약의 효과는 더욱 증대되었다. 그러나, 대부분의 현존 수목은 부적지에 위치되어 겨출철에 주택내로의 광선의 입자를 차단 함으로써 난방에너지의 요구를 증가시켰다(수목 한 개체당 최대 6달러). 차 양효과를 최대화하기 위해서는 주택건물의 남쪽가까이에서는 교목의 식재 를 가급적 회피하고, 수관이 가능한 한 넓은 교목을 주택건물의 서쪽과 동 쪽가까이에 식재하여야만 한다. 증발산과 방풍의 효과를 증진하기 위해 건 물의 북쪽, 북동쪽 및 북서쪽에서의 고밀도 식재가 요구된다.

Among the various vegetables eggplant and gourd family can stand against high temperature environmental condition, about 35$^{\circ}C$. However, most of greenhouse farmers are giving up crop cultivation during hot summer season due to extreme temperature, 4$0^{\circ}C$ or above, condition of greenhouse interior. To improve this inferior crop growth condition, for nozzle system was installed in the pet greenhouse and the effect of fog system was investigated in order to determine fog water amount and the required fog nozzle numbers according to house volumes. MEE fog nozzle was selected for this Investigation which can produce water particle size of 27${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ with water amount of 100$m\ell$ at pumping pressure of 70kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. House cooling test was conducted in the pet greenhouse with one minute fogging and one minute air ventilation without stopping. It maintained 32$^{\circ}C$ at the house interior when the atmosphere and the house temperature were 35 and 4$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. And, an experimental equation was developed through calculating the changes of relative humidity and temperature with psychrometric equation which revealed the moisture transfer pattern between the house air and fog system. It showed that the required water fogging amounts to reduce 1$0^{\circ}C$, 40 to 3$0^{\circ}C$, needs 80.7$\ell$ for 1-2W(8,350㎥) and 99.9$\ell$ for 3-2G-3S(10,330㎥) type greenhouse with particle size of 27${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$.

If a liquid droplet evaporates on a solid substrate, when it completely dries, it leaves a peculiar pattern, which depends on the composition of the liquid. Not only a single component liquid but also complex liquids are studied for a different purpose. In particular, a binary mixture droplet has been widely studied and used for an ink-jet printing technology. In this study, we focus on investigating to visualize the internal flow field of an ethanol-water mixture by varying a concentration ratio between two liquids. We measure the in-plane velocity vector fields and vorticities. We believe that this fundamental study about the internal flow field provides a basic idea to understand the dried pattern of the binary mixture droplet.

The evaporation of sludge particles in a sludge dryer has been numerically investigated with commercial CFX4.1 code. Gas flow field, gas temperature field, sludge particle trajectories, and the moisture content variation of sludge particles are calculated fort various influencing factors, i. e., gas swirl velocity, initial particle distribution, gas temperature. Evaporation of sludge particles increases with gas swirl velocity, several supplying positions, and gas temperature, respectively due to increased residence time, increased contacting surface area, and increased temperature difference between gas and particle.

The laser-induced plasma affects greatly on the results of welding process. moreover selective evaporation loss of alloying elements leads to change in chemical composition of weld metal as well as the mechanical properties of welded joint. this study was undertaken to obtain a fundamental knowledge of pulsed laser welding phenomena especially evaporation mechanism of different aluminum alloys. The intensities of molecular spectra of AlO and MgO were different each other depeding on the power density of a laser beam Under the low power density condition the MgO band spectrum was predominant in intensity while the AlO spectra became much stronger with an increase in the power density. These behaviors have been attributed to the difference in evaporation phenomena of Al and Mg metals with different boiling points and latent heats of vaporization. The time-averaged plasma temperature and electron number density were determined by spectroscopic methods and consequently the obtained temperature was $3,280{\pm}150K$ and the electron number density was $1.85{\times}10^{19}\;l/m^3$.
