소형 공조장치용 냉매 압축기 부품인 기계식 제어 밸브는 에어컨 컴프레서의 핵심부품이고 년간 수백만 개가 국내에 수입된다. 이를 국산화 하기 위하여 진공로 속에서의 브레이징 공정이 수반되는 외국제품의 제조공정을 탈피하여 진공 속에서 DC 프로젝션 용접을 수행하는 기법을 개발하였다. 실린더 형상의 캡과 케이스를 맞대고 그 사이에 박판을 삽입한 상태에서 butt welding 방식으로 진행되는 본 공정에서는, 생산성이 높고 서보가압 장치를 사용하여 soft touch 를 구현하므로 프로젝션이 손상되지 않은 상태에서 통전이 시작되고 2 단 가압 및 프로파일 가압이 가능하므로 링(ring)형상의 너깃이 축대칭으로 안정적으로 형성되기 때문에 실린더 내부의 밀봉성능이 우수함을 확인하였다. 진공로 속에서 본 가압장치를 설치하여 간편한 방법으로 실린더 내부의 진공상태를 유지할 수 있기 때문에 진공로 속에서의 브레이징 공정이 적용되는 외국제품보다 생산성이 월등함을 알 수 있다. 본 연구에서 개발된 링 프로젝션(ring projection) 용접기법은 초소형 및 소형 실린더 형상의 부품 내부를 진공으로 유지해야 하는 산업현장에서 당장 적용될 수 있는 혁신적인 용접공정이라 판단된다.

This paper addresses the development of VP curing equipment for the substitution of autoclave which has several limits in application. This equipment adopt vacuuming and pressurizing processes similarly to the autoclave, but has flexible pressurizing and movable system. The experiments were pursued to determine and to compare specific properties of the specimens produced by three kinds of processes; autoclave, hotpress, and VP. The results show that the VP curing equipment can produce the useful composite material with a little inferior quality to the autoclave, but better than the hotpress. Considering the movability of VP curing equipment, it can be expanded its application to the areas of composite patch-repaired structure in large objects.

건축물에서 방화, 방음, 기밀, 단열 등의 용도로 사용되어지는 방화문은 외관의 단순함과 재질의 제한성 때문에 선택의 폭이 넓지 않았으나 최근에는 외관의 미려함을 고려하면서도 친환경성을 부여한 방화문들이 등장하고 있다. 하지만 방화문으로서 갖추고 있어야 하는 화재발생 시에 일정시간이내로 내화성을 부여해야 하는 측면에서는 어려움이 있다고 하겠는데 특히 목재방화문의 경우에는 경량화되면서도 내화성을 지닐 수 있는 방화문이 더더욱 요구되어지고 있기 때문에 목재방화문에 관한 내화특성을 실험을 통해 측정하였으며 화재안전성을 평가해 보았다.

토양오염 정화방법의 하나인 토양증기추출법(soil vapor extraction, SVE)은 오염된 토양에 진공 또는 가압의 공기를 공급하여 연속적인 공기 흐름을 유도함으로써 토양의 기공에 잔류하는 유해화합물의 증발을 촉진하여 오염물질을 제거하는 공정이다. 본 연구에서는 토양증기추출법의 효율에 영향을 주는 인자들 가운데에서 토양의 수분함량과 오염물질의 종류가 오염물질의 제거효율에 미치는 영향에 대한 실험과 계산을 수행하였다. 인공토양으로 glass bead, sand, molecular sieve가 사용되었으며. 오염물질로는 톨루엔. 메틸에틸케톤, 트리클로로에틸렌이 사용되었다. 각 실험에 대하여 프로인들리히 등온식과 기공확산모델 등을 고려하여 계산을 수행한 결과, 수분이 없는 경우에는 탈착식에 의해, 수분이 있는 경우에는 interparticle에서의 확산 현상에 의해 오염물질의 제거속도가 지배됨을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 연구결과는 정화대상지역에 SVE를 이용한 적절한 정화방법을 설계하는데 기초자료로 이용할 수 있을 것이다.

The objective of the present study is to analyze the transient flow through theejector system with the help of a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. An attempt is made to investigate the interesting and conflicting phenomenon of the infinite entrainment into the primary stream without an infinite mass supply from the secondary chamber. The results obtained show that the one and only condition in which an infinite mass entrainment can be possible in such types of ejectors is the generation of a re-circulation zone near the primary nozzle exit. The flow in the secondary chamber attains a state of dynamic equilibrium of pressures at the onset of the recirculation zone. A steady flow in the ejector system is valid only after this point.

Experiments to predict the thermal contact conductance between the fuel pellet and cladding have been performed, which is important to determine the temperature distibution within the fuel rod. UO$_2$and Zircaloy-2 are used in these experiments. The measuring apparatus is composed of a presser which controls the contact pressure, a thermometer with 5.5 sheathed thermocouples, a vacuum pump, pellet and cladding rods, and two heating devices, etc. The thermal contact conductances were measured with varying the contact pressure and surface roughnesses of UO$_2$and Zircaloy-2 bars. The results show that an increase in the contact pressure and a decrease of surface roughness resulted in increase of the thermal contact conductance. Finally, a fitting correlation has been established and compared with widely-used correlations.

Conventional cold isostatic pressing, slip casting, and filter pressing are not completely suitable for fabricating large plates because of disadvantages such as the high cost of equipment and formation of density gradient. These problems could be avoided by employing pressure-vacuum hybrid slip casting (PVHSC). In the PVHSC, the consolidation occurs not only by the compression of the slip in casting room, but also by vacuum sucking of the dispersion medium around the mold. We prepared the alumina bodies by the PVHSC in a static- or stepwise-pressure manner for loading up to 0.5 MPa using an aqueous slip. The green bodies were dried at $30^{\circ}C$ with 40 ~ 80% relative humidity. Under static pressure, casting induced a density gradient in the formed body, resulting in cracking and distortion after the firing. However, the stepwise pressure loading resulted in green bodies with homogeneous density, and the minimization of the appearance of those defects in final products. Desirable drying results were obtained from the cast bodies dried with 80% RH environment humidity. When sintered at $1650^{\circ}C$ for 4 h, the alumina plate made by stepwise-pressure casting reached full density (> 99.7% relative density).

Quality stability and utilization of sardine protein concentrates were investigated. pH, water activity and amino-nitrogen contents of autoclaved and boiled products were little changed during the storage of 60 days. Available lysine contents of the both products at the initial stage of storage were 5.58g/16g-N and 5.69g/16g-N, respectively. But the available lysine contents and digestibility of the both products decreased slightly with increasing of storage time. Lipophilic and hydrophilic brown pigment formation of the both products increased during storage of 60 days, but peroxide value(POV) and thiobarbituric acid(TBA) value decreased. Total amino acid contents of the both products were in the range of $88.99{\~}89.90g/16g-N$, and the predominant ones were glutamic acid, aspartic acid, leucine and lysine. From the sensory scores of model snack, it is concluded that the sardine protein concentrate can be used as a source material for snack.

To overcome the disadvantages of conventional excavation technology various trenchless (or excavation free, or no-dig) repair-reinforcement technologies have been developed and tried. But trenchless technologies so far developed have some drawbacks such as high cost and inconvenience of operation. In this study, a repairing-reinforcing process for underground pipes with glass fiber fabric polymer composites using VARTM (Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Molding) has been developed. The developed process requires shorter operation time and lower cost with smaller and simpler operating equipments than those of the conventional trenchless technologies. For the reliable operation of the developed method, a simple method to apply pressure and vacuum to the reinforcement was devised and flexible mold technology was tried. Also, resin filling and cure status during RTM process were monitored with a commercial dielectrometry cure monitoring system, LACOMCURE. From the investigation, it has been found that the developed repairing-reinforcing technology with appropriate process variables and on-line cure monitoring has many advantages over conventional methods.

Conventional methods for preparing ceramic bodies, such as cold isostatic pressing, gypsum-mold slip casting, and filter pressing are not completely suitable for fabricating large and thick ceramic plates owing to disadvantages of these processes, such as the high cost of the equipment, the formation of density gradients, and differential shrinkage during drying. These problems can be avoided by employing a pressure-vacuum hybrid slip casting approach that considers not only by the compression of the aqueous slip in the casting room (pressure slip casting) but also the vacuum sucking of the dispersion medium (water) around the mold (vacuum slip casting). We prepared the alumina formed bodies by means of pressure-vacuum hybrid slip casting with stepwise pressure loading up to 0.5 MPa using a slip consisting of 40 vol% solid, 0.6 wt% APC, 1 wt% PEG, and 1 wt% PVA. After drying the green body at $30^{\circ}C$ and 80% RH, the green density of the alumina bodies was about 56% RD. The sintered density of an alumina plate created by means of sintering at $1650^{\circ}C$ for 4 h exceeded 99.8%.This method enabled us to fabricate a $110{\times}110{\times}20$ mm alumina plate without cracks and with a homogeneous density, thus demonstrating the possibility of extending the method to the fabrication of other ceramic products.
