지구 자기권에 존재하는 플라즈마 입자의 다중관측을 목적으로 개발된 초소형 탑재체 STEIN (SupraThermal Electron, Ion, Neutral) 은 경희대학교와 UC Berkeley가 공동으로 개발 중인 3대의 초소형 과학위성 TRIO-CINEMA (TRiplet Ionosphere Observatory - Cubesat for Ion, Neutral, Electron and MAgnetic fields) 에 탑재될 입자 검출기이다. 32개의 픽셀로 이루어진 STEIN 검출기는 2~300 keV의 전자, 4~300 keV의 이온과 중성입자(Energetic Neutral Atom: ENA) 를 분리 계측할 목적으로 설계되었으며, 하전입자가 정전장 편향기를 통과하여 서로 다른 검출기 픽셀에 도달함으로써 전자와 이온, 중성입자를 분리하여 계측할 수 있도록 하였다. 한편, STEIN 구조물에서 발생한 2차 입자의 검출을 방지하기 위해 정전 편향기 사이에 차단날(blade)을 설계하였다. 본 연구에서는 STEIN 모의실험 예비 결과로써 전기장에 크기 및 차단날에 의한 하전입자의 궤적과 이에 따른 분리 계측 성능을 알아보고자 Geant4 (GEometry ANd Tracking)를 사용하여 검출기 픽셀에 입사하는 전자의 초기 위치를 분석하였다. 전자의 입사 위치는 검출기로부터 5 cm 전방에서 6 mm * 20 mm 범위 내에서 무작위로 생성하여 검출기의 방향으로 수직 입사하였다. 분석 결과 전자들은 전기장의 방향에 따라 편향되는 결과를 보였으며, 저에너지 전자는 강한 전기장의 영향으로 차단날에 의해 차폐되어 검출되지 않았다. 따라서 전기장의 크기와 차단날에 따른 입자 분리 검출이 가능함을 본 모의실험을 통해 확인하였으며, STEIN 운용 시 입자 분리 검출 및 결과 분석 기반으로 본 연구 결과를 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Devolatilization is an important mechanism in the gasification and pyrolysis of woody biomass, and has to be accordingly considered in designing a gasifier. In order to describe the devolatilization process of wood particle, there have been proposed a number of empirical correlations based on experimental data. However, the correlations are limited to apply for various reaction conditions due to the complex nature of wood devolatilization. In this study, a simple model was developed for predicting the devolatilization of a wood particle in a fluidized bed reactor. The model considered the drying, shrinkage and heat generation of intra-particle for a spherical biomass. The influence of various parameters such as size, initial moisture content, heat transfer coefficient, kinetic model and temperature, was investigated. The devolatilization time linearly increased with increasing initial moisture content and size of a wood particle, whereas decreases with reaction temperature. There is no significant change of results when the external heat transfer coefficient is over 300 $W/m^2K$, and smaller particles are more sensitive to the outer heat transfer coefficient. Predicted results from the model show a similar tendency with the experimental data from literatures within a deviation of 10%.

A Lagrangian particle tracking model coupled with the ECOM3D were used to study on the behavior of fresh water released from the Namgang Dam in terms of residence time in Kangjin Bay, South Sea, Korea. Model was calibrated until skill cores for elevation, velocity, temperature and salinity are satisfied over 85%. In the numerical simulation, particles were released in 1 hour time interval from the northern boundary. The different patterns of particle trajectory are identified under the varying dynamics from tidal to density-driven current. The average residence time of total particles are approximately 65.9 hours in the entire Kangjin Bay. The average residence time were increased from 55~65 to 70~80 hours during maximum discharge period. Discharge rate of fresh water and average residence time in the Kangjin Bay is high correlated with correlation coefficient over 0.81.

Effects of agitation and heating rate on crystallinity, size distribution and mean size of $\alpha$-$SiO_2$powder prepared hydrothermally were investigated. $\alpha$-$SiO_2$crystalline powder, in mean particle size of 1~3.2 $\mu\textrm{m}$, was obtained at $350^{\circ}C$ using KOH as a mineralized for a 3 h reaction. Experimental results showed that particle size became smaller as the rate of agitation increased if it was introduced from the beginning of reaction, however, crystallinity was reduced at the low rate of agitation and it was became enhanced at above 150 r/min. Particle size became larger if agitation was introduced at any time during the reaction rather than introduced from the beginning of reaction. It was also found that particle size became smaller if heating rate was reduced, while the rate of agitation kept constant.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the enhancement of heat transfer coefficient in double pipe fluidized bed heat exchangers. The inner tube used a smooth tube and a finned tube equipped with longitudinal fins. The heat transfer coefficients between the heated tube and fluidized bed of alumina beads were calculated as a function of fluidized velocity in various particle sizes($d_p$=0.41, 0.54, 0.65, 0.77mm) and static bed heights($H_o$=50, 100, 150, 200, 250mm). The coefficient for finned tube is higher than for smooth tube. And the maximum increasing rate is 7.8 times in smooth tube and 12.9 times in finned tube.

The most important factors among extraction conditions in the extraction process of Barley and Casia tora seed are particle size, extraction temperature, time and initial concentration. In this research project, then, the amounts of extracted materials were measured at various conditions of above factors. They were increased as the particle sizes were decreased and were also increased in the proportional to the value of square of temperature. General mathematical prediction models were developed by an optimization technique for the amounts of extracted materials and extraction rate on the basis of each independent factor. Then, the final prediction model was obtained upon all the factors. As the results, it was also found that the values of overall mass transfer coefficients were increased as the particle sizes were decreased.

금속을 반고상 상태에서 성형하기 위하여 미세조직학적 거동을 밝히기 위해, 본 연 구에서는 높은 비강도, 내마모성을 가진 과공정 Al-Si 합금을 반응고 가공하였을 때의 미세 조직과 상온 가공 후 반고상 온도로 일정시간 유지하였을 때의 미세조직을 관찰하였다. 일 반주조시의 개량 원소 P과 Sr을 첨가하였으며 쐐기형 주조재, 압연재, Si 입자강화 Alrl 복 합재료를 반고상 상태로 가열한 미세조직을 관찰하여 초정 Si입자의 형상 변화를 관찰하였 다. 반응고 교반시 초기에는 P과 Sr의 첨가에 의해 초정 Si입자가 미세화 되었으나 교반이 지속되어 가면서 이러한 경향은 감소하였으며 구상에 가까운 형태로 변화 하였는데, 이는 교반이 지속되면서 첨가 원소의 효과보다 교반 자체의 미세조직 변화 기구에의 의존도가 높 아지기 때문인 것으로 사료된다. 냉각속도를 달리한 쐐기 형상에서의 금형에서 주조된 미세 조직을 관찰한 결과 냉각속도가 느릴 때에만 첨가원소의 영향이 나타났으며, 반고상 온도 유지 후 초정 크기에는 큰 변화가 없었으나 $\alpha$-halo가 형성되고 미세한 Si입자가 생성되었 다. 이는 입자 크기의 성장에 따른 주위의 농도구배로 인해 생성된 것으로 사료된다. 압연시 첨가원소는 핵생성과 재결정을 촉진시켜 초정 Si의 크기를 크게 감소시켰다. 반용융 처리시 초정 Si입자는 약간 성장하였으며, $\alpha$-halo도 생성되었다. 압출한 시료를 반용융 처리한 경 우 Si입자의 형상 변화는 거의 없었으며, Si입자에 형성되어 있던 산화막이 기지와 초정 Si 압자간의 확산장벽으로 작용하여 $\alpha$-halo가 거의 생성되지 않았다. 반응고 교반시 미세조직 변화 기구로는 취성파괴, 합체, 마모를 제안하였으며, 각 공정에서의 초정 Si결정의 크기를 비교하였을 때 45$\mu\textrm{m}$ 이하의 분말을 섞어 압출하였을 때 가장 작은 초정 Si입자 크기를 얻음 을 볼 수 있었다.

A simplified analytical study for micro-sized single metal particle combustion in air was conducted in the present study. The metal particle combustion consists of two distinct reaction regimes, ignition and quasi-steady burning, and the thermo-fluidic phenomena in each stage are formulated by virtue of the conservation and transport equations. When particle temperature reaches to 1200 K, ended an ignition stage and was converted at quasi-steady combustion stage. Effects of Initial particle size, convection, ambient pressure and temperature are examined and addressed with validation.

다공성 물질이 충전된 밀폐용기 내에서 수용성 이원혼합용액($H_2O{+}NaCl$)이 수평한 상부전열면으로 부터 동결될 때 혼합용액의 초기농도, 액체의 과열 및 다공성물질의 입자직경 크기가 온도와 농도분포에 미치는 영향을 실험하였으며, 동결이 진행됨에 따라 이동하는 고액상 혼합영역의 계명위치를 측정하였다. 다공성물질은 평균직경이 2.85mm, 6mm인 구형의 유리구슬을 이용하였다. 수용성 혼합용액의 초기농도는 공융농도도 이하로 하였으며 상부 전열면은 공융온도 이하로, 하부전열면은 액상선온도 이상으로 유지하여 동결 실험한 결과 상부 전열면으로 부터 고체 영역, 고액상혼합영역, 액체영역으로 구분되었다. 액체의 초기농도가 5%인 경우 과냉현상이 관찰되었으나 10%, 15%인 경우 액체온도는 액상선 온도보다 더 높았다. 용액의 초기농도를 감소시킬수록 고체와 고액상혼합영역의 범위는 증대되었으며 고액상혼합영역과 고체영역의 계면은 더욱 강해진 자연대류에 의하여 2차원성이 증가된 형상을 보였다. 용액의 자연대류는 다공성물질의 직경이 클수록 증가되었으며 계면에서의 제융해현상은 관찰되지 않았다.

The physicochemical properties of maize starch sonicated at various amplitudes (100, 200, and 300 W) and times (10, 30, and 50 min) were examined. The amount of enzyme-susceptible starch increased marginally after sonication. Sonication increased the amount of oil absorbed in the starch although the degree of oil absorption decreased with an extension of the sonication time, implied that different types and extent of damages occurred. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that ultrasound sonication did not form pores on the surfaces, but caused damages such as depression and erosion. Pasting viscosity of starch decreased with an increase in the severity of sonication conditions because of the weakened polymer network. X-ray diffraction suggested that the crystalline domains in starch were not susceptible to sonication and were more resistance to degradation. Sonicated starch formed more pin-holes on the surfaces in the initial glucoamylase reaction; subsequently, as the reaction proceeded, porous starch with enlarged pores was formed and finally, disrupted granular fragments were observed.
