Spray-dried (SD) and freeze-dried (FD) takju powders were stored at 5, 15 and $25^{\circ}C$, and various quality characteristics such as moisture, amino nitrogen, color value, total viable cell count, total sugar, reducing sugar organic acid, and flavor compounds were measured for 50 days at 10-day intervals. After 50 days of storage, the moisture content was increased from an initial 6.64% to 7.24-7.38% in the SD powder, and from an initial 4.86 to 5.43-5.61% in the FD powder. pH, total acid content and total viable cell counts were slightly increased. Organic acid content was decreased in the SD powder from an initial 3,949.9 mg% to 805.9-922.3 mg%, and in the FD powder from an initial 5,171.5 mg% to 3,646.0-4,110.2 mg%. Amino nitrogen content was increased in the SD powder from an initial 1.2% to 1.9-2.2% and in the FD powder from an initial 1.9% to 2.2-2.5%. Total sugar and reducing sugar contents were increased in the SD powder from an initial 17.2% and 4.0% to 25.9-27.3% and 5.8-6.9%, and in the FD powder from an initial 19.1% and 5.2% to 29.2-30.2% and 8.3-8.8%, respectively. With increasing storage time, L and b values in the SD powder increased slowly, while L value in the FD powder tended to decrease and b value tended to increase. About 20 major volatile flavor components were identified in the SD and FD powders by GC-MS and all such component levels were decreased with increasing storage time.

This study is an investigation on macroscopic spray behavior of nonimpinging-type injector equipped on the hydrazine thruster under development. An electron microscope is employed for the acceptance examination of injector orifice. Initial performance characteristics and spray behavior of injector are observed through the instantaneous spray images which are captured by high speed camera and Schlieren method with varying injection pressures. The injector performance is scrutinized by the velocity along with penetration length of spray and categorized by dimensionless parameters. It is confirmed that there exist varying characteristics related to the spray breakup caused by fabrication errors of injector-orifices. Unexpected spray behavior, which needs to be reexamined, is grasped at specific pressure level, as well.

The behavior of spray emanating from an injector to be employed in a liquid-propellant thrust chamber is investigated by optical measurement techniques. The injector has eight holes, each of which has 30 cant angle from the center-axis with the diameter of 0.406 mm. In order to examine an atomization process according to the spray-generation conditions and the evolution along spray downstream, variational features in the velocity and size of droplets obtained through Dual-mode Phase Doppler An 799emometry (DPDA) are delineated and discussed together with instantaneous plane images captured by using Nd:Yag laser sheet beam. A categorization of spray-flow regime representing the atomization and turbulent nature is made through evaluating the non-dimensional parameters, i.e., Reynolds number and Weber number based upon the theoretical injection velocity. These qualitative and quantitative data of spray breakup will be a firm basis for the design of brand-new thruster

분사된 연료의 미립화(atomization), 증발(evaporation), 그리고 혼합기형성과정(mixture formation process)이 디젤엔진의 착화 및 연소특성에 영향을 미치기 때문에, 디젤엔진 내에 분사된 연료의 구조해석으로부터 일련의 과정, 즉 고압분사, 분열(breakup), 미립화, 그리고 주위기체의 난류 도입(entrainment)에 관한 연구$^{1-3)}$는 꾸준히 행해져왔다. 본 연구는 증발디젤분무의 구조해석으로부터 디젤충돌분무의 혼합기형성과정을 조사한다. 주위기체의 밀도는 실험변수로서 선택하였고, $5.0kg/m^3$에서 $12.3kg/m^3$까지 변화시켰다. 그리고 소형고속디젤엔진에 있어서 연료분사초기의 상태의 고온 고압 설정이 가능한 정적용기를 사용했다. 주위 온도와 연료분사압력은 각각 700K 및 72MPa로 일정하게 유지했다. 충동증발분무의 액상과 기상의 이미지는 엑시플렉스형광법으로 동시 계측하였다. 실험결과로서 주위기체의 밀도가 높을수록 충돌분무의 선단도 달거리가 주위기체의 항력으로 인하여 감소하였다.

In this paper, numerical experiment is attempted to analyze and compare the combustion efficiency of the burning sprays due to OFO, FOF triplet / FOOF split doublet injectors. Preconditioned Wavier-Stokes equation system with low Reynolds number $\kappa$-$\varepsilon$ model for turbulence closure, is LU-SGS time-integrated. Spray processes are modeled by DSF analysis with experimentally determined injection characteristics. n-heptane/air global reaction model approximates the combustion for simplicity, and the influence of turbulence on the chemical reaction is included using eddy dissipation model. The results showed the FOF triplet injector of highest combustion efficiency, whereas the OFO type of poet performance. It was also observed that the droplet mean diameter and the average gas temperature due to the mixing efficiency, are the representative parameters for the performance design of combustion.

The cooling of a injector effects on the vapor pressure of cryogenic oxidizer spray, and it decides the phase transition point at the ignition process, when the combustion chamber pressure increases drastically. The phase transition of oxidizer spray affects the ignition characteristics, and several ignition tests with the LOx/$GCH_4$ uni-element coaxial swirl injector was performed in the different initial temperatures of oxidizer injector, in order to investigate the effect of injector cooling on the ignition transient characteristics. At the transition point of oxidizer phase, where the combustion chamber pressure increased over the LOx vapor pressure, the temporary quenching phenomenon of the flame occurred. The lower temperature of chilled down injector and tubing tends to move up the phase transition earlier.

The disintegration process of initial spray from high-pressure swirl injector was investigated at different injection pressures. The transient breakup phenomena that were difficult to observe at high injection pressure were easily observed at the low injection pressure of 0.4MPa. The effect of fuel remained inside a nozzle hole volume on the penetration of initial spray was also investigated. The disintegration process of initial spray could be classified four regions: the formation of mushroom shape, the first collision, the second collision, and the development of spray, The liquid film of cup shape was particularly found in the second collision region, and the growth ratio of its length and width at low and high injection pressures were compared.

The aim of the present study was to estimate the prediction performance of a FDS (Fire Dynamic Simulator) to simulate the fire behaviors and suppression characteristics by operating a water-mist. Rosin-Rammler/log-normal distribution function was used to determine the initial droplet distribution of water-mist and the effects of its model constant were considered. In addition, the simulation models were validated by a comparison of the predicted fire suppression characteristics with water-mist injection pressures to the previous experiments, and the thermal flow behaviors and gaseous concentration variations were analyzed. The results showed that water-mists with the same mean diameter were affected by the characteristics of the droplet size distribution, which have different size and velocity distributions at the downstream location. The fire simulations conducted in this study determine the initial droplet size distribution tuned to the base of the spray characteristics measured by previous experiments. The simulation results showed good agreement with the previous measurements for temperature variations and fire suppression characteristics. In addition, it was confirmed that the FDS simulation with a water-mist operation supplies useful details on estimations of the thermal flow fields and gaseous concentration under water mist operation conditions.

$LiNiO_2$ cathode powders with fine size have been synthesized by spray pyrolysis from the spray solution with citric acid and ethylene glycol. The as-prepared powders with spherical shape, porous structure and micron size turned into $LiNiO_2$ powders with micron size and regular morphology after post-treatment at $800^{\circ}C$. The initial discharge capacities of the $LiNiO_2$ powders changed from 199 to 171mAh/g when the concentrations of the citric acid and ethylene glycol added to the spray solutions were changed from 0 to 1 M. The maximum initial discharge capacity of the $LiNiO_2$ powders obtained from the spray solution with citric acid and ethylene glycol was 198 mAh/g when the lithium component added to the spray solution was 6 mol% excess of the stoichiometric amount. The discharge capacities of the fine-sized $LiNiO_2$ powders dropped from 198 to 163 mAh/g by the 30 th cycle at a current density of 0.1 C.

The study on the penetration of sprays during the initial phase of injection period, i.e. ignition delay period, in high speed small D.I. diesel engines are strongly affected by such behavior. To investigate the penetration of the sprays injected through single cylinderical orifice, a mathematical model was developed and compared with experimental results. In this model, radial heterogeneity of fuel density in the spray, transiency of injection pressure difference, and spray outrunning phenomenon were considered simultaneously. Experiments on the behaviors of sprays in the high pressure air chamber were conducted at various injection pressure differences and different levels of back air pressure. The behaviors of sprays injected into the chamber through the conventional Bosch injection pump were visualized with side stroboscopic illumination. Comparison of the experimental results with predictions from the mathematical model confirmed the validity of the model. It was also found that during the initial phase of the injection period the penetration of sprays vs. time appeared to have two transition points; one corresponded to disintegration point of liquid fuel jet, the other to the beginning of steady state injection.
