Phenomenon of direct contact condensation (DCC) heat transfer between steam and water is characterized by the transport of heat and mass through a moving steam/water interface. Since the DCC heat transfer provides some advantageous features in the viewpoint of enhanced heat transfer, it is widely applied to the diversified industries. This study proposes a simple condensation model on the stable steam jets discharging into a quenching tank with subcooled water from a single horizontal pipe for the prediction of the steam jet shapes. The model was derived from the mass, momentum and energy equations as well as thermal balance equation with condensing characteristics at the steam/water interface for the axi-symmetric coordinates. The extremely large heat transfer rate at the steam/water interface was reflected in the effective thermal conductivity estimated from the previous experimental results. The results were compared with the experimental ones. The predicted steam jet shape(i. e. radius and length) by the model was increasing as the steam mass flux and the pool temperature were increasing, which was similar to the trend observed in the experiment.

대부분의 동적댐퍼들은 주구조물의 진동진폭을 정해진 주파수 변위내에서 최대로 줄이는 것을 목 표로 한다. 그러나 공작기계의 안정성은 시편과 공구사이의 상대변위와 절삭력에 의해 결정되는 전달함수의 최대크기에 의해서보다는 실수부분의 최소치에 의해 결정된다는 것이 잘 알려져 있 다. 본 논문에서는 이 사실에 착안하여 공작기계에서 발생하는 채터를 흡수하기 위한 최적의 댐 퍼를 설계하는 절차를 제시하고 1 자유도로 대표될 수 있는 구조물의 경우에 대하여 구체적인 방 법을 예시하였다. 종래의 최적 댐퍼의 성질을 구하는 방법에 비해 수학적인 절차가 약간 복잡해 지기는 하나 전산기를 이용하여 큰 어려움이 없이 최적의 설계자료를 얻을 수 있다. 댐퍼 질량이 정해졌을 때 감쇠율과 스프링 계수를 변수로 하는 목표함수가 하나의 식으로 유도될 수 없기 때 문 에 간단한 최적화 방법으로 이변수 황금분할법을 사용하였다. 수치적인 예를 통하여 종래의 다른 방법에 의한 결과와 비교하고 제안된 방법론의 타당성을 입증하였다.

The spindle with a built-in motor can be used to simplify the structure of machine tool system, while the rotor has unbalance mass inevitably. A high-speed spindle can be very sensitive to rotating mass unbalance which has harmful effect on many machine tools. Therefore, the balancing procedure to reduce vibration in rotating system is certainly needed for all high-speed spindles. So, it was performed with a spindle-bearing system for CNC automatic lathe by using numerical procedure. The spindle is supported by the angular contact ball bearings and the motor rotor is fixed at the middle of spindle. The spindle-bearing system has been investigated using combined methodologies of finite elements and transfer matrices. The balancing was performed through influence coefficient method and the comparison was made by whirl responses between before balancing and after balancing. As a result, balancing of simple spindle model reduced whirl orbit magnitude in case of a completely assembled spindle model.

The efficient performance of absorber is of great importance for the absorption heat pump cycle. The experimental study of absorber with spiral tube of tangential feeding of liquid phase has been investigated using methanol-glycerine as a working fluid. The effect of change in absorber operating conditions was analyzed to improve the performance. The increase in solution flow rate and cooling flow rate positively affects the absorber performance while an increse in the solution concentration negatively affects the absorber performance. The results showed that mass absorption flux was in the range of $0.2{\sim}0.6kgm^{-2}sec^{-1}$, the solution heat transfer coefficient between 1.6 and $4.2kwm^{-2}K^{-1}$, the absorber thermal load from 0.9 to 1.5kw and the mass transfer coefficient from 0.9 to 1.7 m/sec.

As a number of potential endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) are released into the environment, recently growing attention has been drawn to them. Therefore sensitive and reliable analytical methods are essential to monitor those compounds. In this study, complementary CC-MS and LC-MS were employed to analyze the endocrine disrupters, and the results of two methods were compared for di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP), benzylbutylphthalate (BBP), pentachlorophenol (PCP), and 4,4'-Isopropylidenediphenol (Bisphenol-A, or BPA). The results indicate that it was possible to lower the detection limits of EDCs by LC-MS. Also, LC-MS enabled to identify the EDCs as almost intact molecules. Furthermore, this study presented a nanofiltration membrane (MWCO 250) and a ultrafiltration membrane (MWCO 1,000) filtration system as methods far removing EDCs from drinking water containing $\gamma$-BHC, p,p'-DDE, BBP, p,p'-DDT, DEHP, PCP, and BPA. Cross-flow type nanofiltrations showed $100\%$ removal of EDCs, and the result implies that MWCO 250 nanofilter was sufficient for treatment of EDCs. The ratio of permeate flux to mass transfer coefficient of nanofiltration, high flux ultrafiltration, and low flux ultrafiltration with ultrapure water were 0.67, 3.4, and 0.44, respectively. It was found that nanofiltration and low flux ultrafiltration were operated at a diffusion dominant condition, and the high flux ultrafiltration was operated at a convection dominant condition. Furthermore, a diffusion dominant process attained reasonable rejection of EDCs. The removal in the ultrafiltration was depending on the molecular weight of an EDC, and the filtration was governed by diffusion-dominant hydrodynamic conditions.

All-vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) are used as energy storage systems for multiple intermittent power sources. The performance of the VRFBs depends on the materials and operating conditions. Hence, performance characterization is of great importance in the development of the VRFBs. This paper proposes a method for determining the maximum current density based on stoichiometric ratios. A laboratory-scaled VRFB with a projected electrode area of $25cm^2$ is electrically charged when the state of the charge has begun from 0.6. The operating conditions, such as current density and volumetric flow rate are important in the test, and the maximum current density is influenced by the mass transfer coefficient. The results show that increasing the electrolyte flow rate from 5 mL/min to 60 mL/min enhances the maximum current density up to $520mA/cm^2$.

We measured the variations of potentials and current densities for several polymers. The results were carefully examined to identify various factors such as temperature and pH to influence the potential and rate. The Tafel slope for anodic dissolution was determined by the polarization effect under these conditions. The optimum conditions were established for each case. The second anodic current density peak and maximum current density were designated as the relative polarization sensitivity $(I_r/I_f)$. The mass-transfer coefficient value $({\alpha})$ was determined by the Tafel slope for anodic dissolution on the basis of the polarization effect under optimum conditions.

Shaking table test was carried out to obtain dynamic characteristics of TLCDs with uniform and non-uniform sections for both horizontal and vertical tubes. The input to the table is harmonic acceleration with constant magnitude. The output is horizontal dynamic force which is measured by load cell installed below the TLCD. Transfer functions are experimentally obtained using the ratio of input and output. Natural frequency, the most important design factor, is compared to that by theoretical equation for TLCDs with five different water levels. System identification process is performed for experimentally obtained transfer functions to find the dynamic characteristics of head loss coefficient and effective mass of TLCDs. It is found that their magnitudes are larger for a TLCD with non-uniform section than with uniform section and natural frequencies are close to theoretical ones.

The objective of the present study was to investigate heat and mass transfer characteristics in a vertical falling film type absorber using LiBr-$H_2O$ solution with 6owt%. The experimental apparatus consisted of an absorber with inner diameter of 17.2 mm and length of 1150mm, a generator, an evaporator/condenser, a solution tank, a sampling trap etc. The parameters were solution temperature of 45 and $50^{\circ}C$, coolant temperature of 30 and $35^{\circ}C$, and film Reynolds numbers from 50 to 150. Pressure drop in the absorber increased as solution and coolant temperatures decreased. Pressure drop in the absorber increased up to the film Reynolds number of 90, and then decreased at the further increase of the Reynolds number above 90. The maximum absorption mass flux observed at the film Reynolds number of 90. Absorption mass flukes increased as coolant temperature decreased. Absorption mass fluxes and heat transfer coefficients under subcooled condition were larger than those under superheated condition. Heat transfer coefficients were affected by solution temperature more than coolant temperature. The maximum absorption effectiveness under the subcooled condition was 23% for coolant temperature of $30^{\circ}C$ and 31% for coolant temperature of $35^{\circ}C$ under the present experimental conditions.
