This study was conducted to examine the effect of aqueous chlorine dioxide treatment as a washing method on removal of pesticide residues. Three pesticides of chlorpyrifos, diazinon, and metalaxyl, which are commonly used in vegetable crops, were treated with 10, 50, and 100 ppm of aqueous chlorine dioxide and decomposition of the pesticides was determined using gas chromatography. Three pesticides used in this study were decomposed by aqueous chlorine dioxide treatment and removal rate was proportional to treatment time as well as concentration of aqueous chlorine dioxide. In particular, 100 ppm of aqueous chlorine dioxide treatment decreased the pesticides efficiently. In addition, lettuce was treated by dipping in distilled water and 100 ppm aqueous chlorine dioxide, respectively, and was compared regarding removal efficiency of the pesticides. The results revealed that washing with 100 ppm aqueous chlorine dioxide for 10 min was the most effective for removing the pesticides. These results suggest that aqueous chlorine dioxide can be used as a washing method of fresh produce to remove the residual of pesticides.

The purpose of this study is to check the fire origin and cause of the fire by observing the shape of the flame propagation in air-conditioner indoor unit through the fire tests. We supposed that the flame is spread from the surroundings to the top of the air-conditioner and ignited on top of the air-conditioner with n-heptane. And then repeated this experiment twice under the same conditions. After the ignition, refrigerant filled in air-conditioner and lubricating oil exploded with large explosion and flame having high temperature and pressure belched out rapidly due to bursting refrigerant pipe linked air-conditioner between 734 seconds and 559 seconds. After result of checking the combustion residue we found that almost all of that was lost except a part of the evaporator, motor and metal. The position of short-circuit traces of wiring for the air-conditioner ignited itself is similar to that of fire damage by external flame. Therefore, we verified that it is not certain to determine the ignition cause and point by only the shape of the combustion residues.

최근 세계 각지에서 발생하는 대규모 터널 화재사고는 많은 사상자를 동반하고 이에 따른 경제적, 사회적 손실 또한 방대하게 진행되는 실정이다. 터널 구조물의 화재 특성상 외부에 쉽게 노출되지 않기 때문에 화재 발생 시 화재에 노출된 표층이 박리되거나 비산해서 단면결손이 생기는 폭렬 현상(explosive spalling)이 발생하게 된다. 이러한 폭렬 현상은 붕괴와 같은 대형 참사로 이어질 가능성이 크다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 터널 내 화재 발생 시 콘크리트 구조물의 폭렬에 의한 붕괴를 예방하기 위하여 이액형 상온경화 실리콘 고무와 인체에 무해한 친환경 첨가제인 펄라이트를 일정한 혼합비(5wt%, 10wt%, 15wt%, 20wt%)로 혼합하여 고성능 난연 복합체를 제조하고, 열적 특성과 난연 특성을 연구를 진행하였다. 열적 특성에 관한 시험으로 TGA를 측정하였으며, 난연 특성에 관한 시험으로는 화염 시험, 내화로 시험, 탄화로 시험을 진행하였다. 우선 TGA 시험은 $20^{\circ}C/min$ 승온 속도로 $800^{\circ}C$까지 실험을 하였고, 화염 시험은 제작한 시편과 gas torch($1200^{\circ}C$)의 화염 거리를 약 10cm로 하여 약 1시간 동안 시험을 하였다. 내화로 시험은 내화로 장치를 이용하여 RABT curve(5분만에 $1200^{\circ}C$도달 후 한 시간 동안 유지 후 냉각, 총 시험 시간 180분) 조건을 만족하는 환경에서 제작한 시편을 콘크리트에 부착하여 콘크리트의 내부온도를 측정하였다. 탄화로 시험은 탄화로 장치를 이용하여 $2^{\circ}C/min$ 승온속도로 $900^{\circ}C$까지 실험을 하여 외부 형태 변화를 관찰하였다. 각각의 시험 결과 TGA 열분해 결과 순수한 실리콘 고무보다 난연제인 펄라이트를 첨가했을 때 더 높은 온도에서 초기 분해 거동을 보였으며, 최종 잔류량은 80%를 보였고, 5 wt%의 펄라이트가 혼합된 시편의 최종 잔류량이 높은 것으로 보아 열분해에 가장 강한 조성임을 알 수 있었다. 화염 시험 결과 펄라이트가 혼합된 모든 시편에서 $300^{\circ}C$가 넘지 않은 결과를 보였다. 이는 제조된 복합체가 화염에 직접적으로 장시간 노출이 되어도 안전하다는 것을 알 수 있다. 내화로 및 탄화로 시험 결과 펄라이트가 15wt%와 20wt%가 첨가된 시편들보다 5wt%와 10wt% 첨가된 시편들이 고온에서 안정하다는 것을 보였다.

The satellite payloaded on the 2nd stage of KSLV-I is planned to perform CCAM(Contamination and Collision Avoidance Maneuver) not to collide with KM(Kick Motor). At the moment, the satellite should pass through low density environment not to be contaminated by KM plume due to residual thrust. Therefore, it is necessary to predict the flow field of KM plume by residual thrust. In this paper, DSMC (Direct Simulation Monte-Carlo) method, which is widely accepted to simulate in rarefied regime, is used to compute the density field of KM plume by residual thrust and the result of DSMC simulation was compared with that of FLUENT to validate it.

Experimental investigations on the comparison of developments between transient jets and evolving jet diffusion flames have been made in initial injection period. To achieve this experiment, an ignition technique using a residual flame as the ignition source is devised. High speed Schlieren visualizations, and measurements including jet tip penetration velocities and jet widths of the primary vortex are employed to examine the developing processes for several flow conditions. It is seen that the developing behaviors in the presence of flame are greatly different from those in transient jet, and thus the flow characteristics in the transient part are also modified. The discernible differences are shown to consist of the delay of the rollup of the primary vortex, the faster spreading after the rollup due to exothermic expansion, and the survival of only a primary vortex. The growth of primary vortex in the transient jet is properly explained through an impulsively started laminar vortex prior to the interaction. It is also found that the jet tip penetration velocity varies with elapsed time and an increase in Res gives rise to a higher tip penetration velocity.

The residual stresses on the surfaces of low carbon 12Cr steels used as a nuclear steam turbine blade material have been studied by controlling the flame hardening surface treatments. The temperature cycles on the surfaces of 12Cr steel were controlled precisely as a function of both the surface temperature and cooling rate. The final residual stress state generated by flame hardening was dominated by two opposite competitive contributions; one is tensile stress due to phase transformation and the other is compressive stress due to thermal contraction on cooling. The optimum processing temperatures required for the desirable residual stress and hardness were in the range of $850^{\circ}C$ to $960^{\circ}C$ on the basis of the specification of GE power engineering. It was also observed that the high residual tensile stress generated by flame hardening induced the cracks on the surfaces, especially across the prior austenite grain boundaries, and the material failure virtually, which might limit practical use of the surface engineered parts by flame hardening.

The flame retarded NBR foams were prepared with metal hydroxides and various phosphorus/nitrogen-contain ing flame retardants. The dependency of the phosphorus content on thermal properties, flame retardancy, smoke density, and foaming properties were investigated in the foams. Foaming properties and morphology of the flame retarded NBR foams with P/N flame retardants( ${\le}10 phr$) were similar to those of the foams without P/N ones but containing metal hydroxides The flame retardancy of the foams was improved with increasing the phosphorus content and char formation under combustion atmosphere. The cone-calorimeter test and LOI index were also coincided with the TGA analysis quite well. The heat release rate (HRR), total heat release (THR), and effective heat of combustion (EHC) were decreased, whereas the carbon monoxide yield was increased with increase of the phosphorus content of P/N flame retardant. The smoke density values were closely related with CO yield values obtained by the cone-calorimeter test due to the high and hard char formation.
