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.

To develop a new spice material garlic juice was prepared from peeled garlic and its composition, density and boiling point rise were investigated. Major components of the garlic juice were moisture(68.01%), crude protein(6.50%) and carbohydrate(25.39%). Yield of the juice from the peeled whole garlic was 49.50%(w/w). Density of the garlic juice with solid content of 32 to $65^{\circ}$ Brix was in the range of 1,107 to $1,243kg/m^3$. Boiling point rise of garlic juice increased exponentially with the increase of solid content. In the solid content range of 32 to $65^{\circ}$ Brix, the boiling point rise could be predicted with following experimental equation with average error of less than 7%. $$BPR=1.4105.\;P^{0.1338}.\;exp(0.0357.\;X_5-1.3925)$

The thermodynamic performance of closed ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) cycle with 1 MW gross power was evaluated to obtain the basic data for the optimal design of OTEC. The basic thermodynamic model for OTEC is Rankine cycle and the thermal effluent from power plant was used for the heat source of evaporator. The cycle performance such as efficiency, heat exchanger capacity, etc. was analyzed on the temperature variation of thermal effluent. The saturated pressure of evaporator increased with respect to the increase of thermal effluent temperature, so the cycle efficiency increased and necessary capacity of evaporator and condenser decreased under 1 MW gross power. As the thermal effluent temperature increases about $15^{\circ}C$, the cycle efficiency increased approximately 44%. So, it was revealed that thermal effluent from power plant is important heat source for OTEC plant. Also, if there is an available waste heat, it can be transferred heat to the working fluid form the evaporator through heat exchanger and cycle efficiency will be increased.

For the special usage, the effort of developing AlN single crystals has been very hot in the world. The AlN-base UV LEDs are used on the field of sterilization, purification, curing and analyzing, which can advance human's living and medical processes etc.. AlN single crystals were grown by the PVT (Physical vapor transport) method. On the growing process, carbon crucibles with three different types such as normal size, taller than normal and wider than normal were used for comparison. The processing temperature was in the range of $1900{\sim}2100^{\circ}C$ and ambient pressure was 200~1 Torr. When the taller crucible was used, the sublimation mass was greater than normal dimension one but the best condition of growth changes widely. However the wider one gave much sublimation mass and growing condition was more stable than normal dimension. On limited growing furnace system, the changes of crucible dimension of PVT method provide the change of best condition for growth rate, as-grown crystal quality and growth condition stability.

In order to investigate $CO_2$ heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop by PAG oil concentration during $CO_2$ evaporation, the experiment on evaporation heat transfer characteristics in a mini-channels were performed. The experimental apparatus consisted of a test section, a DC power supply, a heater, a chiller, a mass flow meter, a pump and a measurement system. Experiment was conducted for various mass fluxes($300{\sim}800kg/m^{2}s$), heat fluxes($10{\sim}40kW/m^2$) saturation temperatures($-5{\sim}5^{\circ}C$), and PAG oil concentration(0, 3, 5wt%). The variation of the heat transfer coefficient was different according to the oil concentration. With the increase of the oil concentration, the evaporation heat transfer coefficient decreased and the delay of dryout by oil addition was found. Pressure drop increased with the increase of the oil concentration and heat flux, and the decrease of saturation temperature.

Three-dimensional (3D) numerical simulations have been carried out to study how coolant injection conditions influence the cooling efficiency and projectile ejection performance in a mixture-gas ejection system (or gas-steam launch system). The 3D single-phase computational model was verified using a 1D model constructed with reference to the previous research and then a two-phase flow computation simulating coolant injection on to hot gas was performed using a DPM (Discrete Phase Model). As a result of varying the coolant flow rate and number of injection holes, cooling efficiency was improved when the number of injection holes were increased. In addition, the change of the coalescence frequency and spatial distribution of coolant droplets caused by the injection condition variation resulted in a change of the droplet diameter, affecting the evaporation rate of coolant. The evaporation was found to be a critical factor in the design optimization of the ejection system by suppressing the pressure drop while the temperature decreases inside the breech.

The increasing concerns for environmental pollution and depletion of natural resources have prompted the development of environmentally sustainable technologies. Pervaporation has garnered attention in recent decades due to its low energy consumption, environmental impact, and performance efficiency. This method has been used to separate chemical species and dehydrate organic solvents, as the membranes can be fine-tuned to fulfill the desired selectivity. Several separation processes, such as reverse osmosis and distillation, are being utilized in both experimental settings and industrial applications. However, pervaporation has several advantages, such as low operating pressure and temperature and a higher rejection rate. Nonetheless, the current state of membrane technology alone can't suffice the demands of practical applications. Composite membranes, on the other hand, can leverage the benefits of both organic and inorganic materials. Many studies have effectively incorporated inorganic nanomaterials such as graphene oxide (GO) and MXene (MX) in polymeric membranes to tackle the current limitations. This review investigates the recent development of 2D composite membranes in pervaporation and evaluates performance enhancement.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the cognitive demands level of the description about 'changes of state' and 'kinetic theory' on the 'science 1' textbooks by the 2007 revised curriculum. The three types of curriculum analysis taxonomy have been used to analyze the cognitive demands level of those contents on the 6 kinds of 'science 1' textbooks. The most higher level of cognitive demands about the concepts have been discussed here due to the focus of the concepts. The first, the cognitive demand level about 'three states of substances' depending on the motion of their particles in 6 textbooks is a early formal operational stage because of using by the application of kinetic theory. The second, the cognitive demand level about 'diffusion' and 'evaporation' is a early formal operational stage, because the particles move around faster so they can change their position. The third, the cognitive level of the pressure and volume in a gas is a early formal operational stage because of explaining only phenomena in simple correspondence with formal model of kinetic theory. And simple functional relationships beyond linear on the graph of the volume and pressure of gas, the volume and temperature of gas is also a early formal operational stage. The fourth, the cognitive level of the energy of heat by a change of the state is also a early formal operational stage because kinetic theory picture accepted as providing explanation by the change of the state. And functional relationships beyond linear on the graph of the explanation of boiling point of water in water is also a early formal operational stage.

The purpose of this study is to develop a process technology to produce high hardness concentrated seawater removing chloride ions but containing useful minerals such as magnesium and calcium in the seawater desalination process. In order to make high hardness concentrated seawater, evaporation system is mostly used recently. Because evaporation system requires a large amount of energy consumption, in this study, it was aimed to produce high hardness concentrated seawater using membrane filtration requiring less energy. Nano filtration membranes were used for the experiments, and different types of high hardness concentrated seawater was produced depending on the membranes' specification, the number of times being concentrated, and pressure. As a result, at between 15bar and 20 bar in pressure, in between the second and the third times of concentration, the experiment result showed the best economic efficiency. By the experiment, production of high hardness concentrated seawater seemed to have a good economic feasibility.

태양전지는 태양광에너지를 바로 전기에너지로 전환시키는 소자이다. 최근에는 다결정 태양전지의 응용가능성에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되어 오고 있다. 이 중 CuInSe2는 여러 가지 좋은 물성을 가지고 있어서, 저가의 고효율 태양전지를 위한 광흡수층 재료로 주목받고 있다. 현재까지 다양한 방법이 시도되었지만, 10% 이상의 고효율을 가지는 고품질을 박막을 얻는 방법은 진공증발증착법과 selenization 방법뿐이다. 이 중 진공증발증착법에 의하여 형성된 박막을 이용하여 가장 높은 효율의 태양전지를 얻을 수 있으나, 진공 장비의 대면적화가 힘들기 때문에 대면적 태양전지 제조가 힘들다는 단점이 있다. 따라서 selenization 방법을 이용하여 CuInSe2 박막을 제조하는 것이 가장 유망한 방법이라 할 수 있다. Selenization 방법은 Cu-In 금속층을 제작한 뒤 이를 selenium과 반응을 시키는 방법이다. 따라서 이 방법을 이용하여 박막을 제조할 때는 Cu-In 금속층의 물성 조절이 이후 생성되는 CuInSe2 박막의 물성향상에 필수적이다. 따라서 Cu-In 금속층의 물성에 대해 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 하지만 Cu-In 이 성분계에서 알려진 반가 없다. 저온에서는 반응속도론적으로 매우 느리게 반응이 일어나기 때문에 열역학적으로 안정한 상을 얻기가 힘들기 때문이다. 따라서 본 실험에 앞서 각 제조 조건에 따른 열역학적인 안정상을 계산하였다. 그 결과, 상온에서 Cu의 양이 증가함에 따라, In$\longrightarrow$CuIn2$\longrightarrow$Cu11In9$\longrightarrow$Cu7In3 상으로 변화하였다. 9$0^{\circ}C$이하의 온도에서는 CuIn2 상이 안정하였고, 10$0^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서는 Cu11In9 상 두 가지로 존재하였고, Cu/In 인가전력비를 변화시켰을 때 조성비가 선형적으로 변하였다. 즉, Cu-In 동시스퍼터링법은 원하는 조성을 간편한 방법으로 정확하게 조절할 수 있는 방법이라 할 수 있다. 증착 온도를 변화시켰을 때는 9$0^{\circ}C$ 이하의 낮은 온도에서 존재하던 CuIn2 상이 10$0^{\circ}C$이상의 온도에서는 완전히 사라지고 In과 CuIn2 상이 사라지고 In 상과 Cu11In9 상이 나타났다. 상전이를 위하여 30$0^{\circ}C$의 높은 열처리 온도가 필요한 것은, 밀 저온 안정상이 형성된 뒤 각 원소들의 확산에 의해 상전이가 일어나기 때문에 이를 위한 충분한 열에너지를 가질 수 있는 온도가 필요하기 때문이다. 조성을 일정하게 유지하면서 챔버 압력을 변화시켰을 때는 형성되는 상의 미세구조난 결정성은 일정하였다. 인가전력, 증착온도, 챔버 압력 변화에 따른 상변화는 앞서 계산한 열역학적 결과와 정확히 일치하였다. 이는 동시스퍼터링 방법이 각 입자들을 원소 단위에서 균일하게 혼합할 수 잇는 방법이고, 또 입자들이 높은 에너지를 가지고 있기 때문이다. 즉, 원소 단위에서 균일한 반응을 하고, 가장 안정한 위치로 쉽게 이동할 수 있기 때문에 열역학적으로 안정한 상을 형성할 수 있는 것이다.
