the liquid oxygen transitions to a supercritical state, causing rapid changes in properties and pseudo boiling in supercritical combustion. the combustion reaction operating in a supercritical state depends on the turbulence diffusion caused by difference of density, therefore, a study of the diffusion flow and pseudo boiling is required. Many researchers have studied these phenomena in the supercritical combustion, but A case study by various variables is inadequate. In this study, the flow field and flame structure were investigated numerically by changing the recirculation flow and liquid oxygen core length through oxygen-fuel ratio(O/F), combustor diameter and recess ratio at supercritical pressure condition.

The turbulent mixing and combustion of a shear coaxial injector under supercritical pressures have been theoretically/numerically investigated. Turbulent numerical model is based on large eddy simulation with real-fluid transport and thermodynamics over the entire pressure; Soave modification of Redlich-Kwong equation of state, Chung's model for viscosity/conductivity, and Fuller's theorem for diffusivity to take account Takahashi's compressible effect. The results are compared with previous researcher's. The large-scale vortices shedding from the outer rim into the recirculation region to react with gaseous oxygen was investigated.

The turbulent mixing of a kerosene/liquid oxygen coaxial swirl injector under supercritical pressures have been numerically investigated. Kerosene surrogate models are proposed for the kerosene thermodynamic properties. Turbulent numerical model is based on LES(Large Eddy Simulation) with real-fluid transport and thermodynamics over the entire pressure range; Soave modification of Redlich-Kwong equation of state, Chung's model for viscosity/conductivity, and Fuller's theorem for diffusivity to take account Takahashi's compressible effect. The effect of operating pressure on thermodynamic properties and mixing dynamics inside an injector and a combustion chamber are investigated. Power spectral densities of pressure fluctuations in the injector under various chamber pressure are analyzed.

초임계유체(supercritical fluid, SCF)는 친환경적 용매로서 고분자 합성과 기능화를 비롯하여 RESS(rapid expansion of supercritical solution)와 초임계염색 등의 섬유공정 분야에서 연구자들의 흥미로운 관심을 받아 오고 있다. 초임계유체는 기체와 액체의 중간적인 특성을 가지면서도 가스와 같이 우수한 확산력을 가지며 또한 아주 낮은 점도를 갖는다. SCF 중에서 비교적 온화한 조건(31.1℃의 임계온도, 73.8기압의 임계압력, Figure 1)에서 초임계상태를 가질 수 있는 이산화탄소가 가장 많이 이용되고 있는데 이는 자원이 풍부하며 쉽게 회수하여 사용할 수 있어 응용 면에서 유리하다. (중략)

원자력 발전소의 운영개선에 2차 방사성폐기물을 줄여야 하는 것은 중요한 과제이다. 기존 세탁 법은 2차 방사성폐기물을 상당히 많이 배출는데, 개선방안으로 초임계 유체($CO_2$)를 이용한 제염가능성을 알아보았다. 본 연구에서 순광유, 그리고 산업용으로 쓰이는 기어유와 그리스의 초임계 $CO_2$ 내에서의 용해도와, 제거율을 구하였다. 용해도 측정 실험에서는 초임계 상태에서 압력에 따라 용해도가 급격히 증가하였으며 반응시간 또한 매우 빨라 확산성이 매우 우수하였다. 실제 적용을 위해 소량의 첨가용매를 사용한다면 더욱 큰 성과가 기대된다.

We investigated how supercritical $CO_2$ affected sterilization and enzyme inactivation in dongchimi, a conventional Korean fermented food. The growth of bacteria, including lactic acid bacteria, in dongchimi juice tended to decrease with increased pressure and temperature during treatment with supercritical $CO_2$. D values were affected by pressure more than by temperature. The lowest total number of cells and D values of lactic acid bacteria were observed after treatment with supercritical $CO_2$ at 25 MPa and $25^{\circ}C$; these conditions also reduced polygalacturonase activity in radishes by approximately 40.3%. Supercritical $CO_2$ can be used as an alternative method of sterilization and enzyme inactivation, minimizing sensory loss and textural changes in vegetable materials.

Theoritical principles about the real gas equation of state are investigated and comparisons for the thermophysical properties of oxygen, hydrogen, and methane as the propellants of liquid rocket engine are carried out for the various conditions of pressure and temperature including supercritical conditions. The properties obtained using the real gas equation of state(Soave modification of Redlich-Kwong, Peng-Robinson equation of state, and extended corresponding states principle) have been compared with the results of applying the ideal gas equation of state. Differences of thermophysical properties among the models specifically at the liquid phase regime and their error ranges are addressed.

We depolymerized PET in supercritical methanol and observed the yield of DMT at various reaction conditions. At subcritical state below $240^{\circ}C$, the yield of DMT was very low, about only 50%. It increased dramatically to 80% at supercritical state above $260^{\circ}C$, thereafter the increasing rate was reduced significantly. Similarly, at subcritical state of 6.89 MPa, the DMT yield was only 50%, but it increased abruptly to 85% at supercritical state of 10.34 MPa, yielding no further increase above the pressure. Within 10 minutes after the beginning of the reaction, the DMT yield reached 80%, indicating that the significant portion of the reaction has proceeded, and then, the yield increased slowly. The methanol/PET ratio of 8 showed the maximum DMT yield. We found the optimum depolymerization condition fur PET methanolysis is temperature $300^{\circ}C$, pressure 10.34 MPa, reaction time 40 minutes, and methanol/PET ratio of 8.

For the study of thermophysical properties of kerosene for the liquid rocket and aviation fuels, the surrogate models are investigated. The density distributions based on the real gas equations of state(Soave modification of Redlich-Kwong and Peng-Robinson equation of state) and NIST SUPERTRAPP(extended corresponding state principle) are compared with the previous experimental results at supercritical conditions. The error range of thermophysical properties analyzed for the surrogate models as well. Peng-Robinson equation of state and extended corresponding state principle are especially accurate for the hydrocarbon fuels but the appropriate surrogate models need to be chosen to the operation conditions such as pressure and temperature.

This study is to produce multiple layers of liposomes in a supercritical state and encapsulates active ingredients in order to stably encapsulate thermodynamically unstable active ingredients. In order to form a liposome in a supercritical state, a mixed surfactant development including vegetable-derived hydrogenated phosphatidyl choline and their delivative, hydrogenated sucrose distearate was synthesized as high purity. It describes a manufacturing method of injecting liquid carbon dioxide into a reactor to create a supercritical state and stirring to produce a giant liposome, and adding and loading genistein and quercetin. The HLB of the mixed lipid complex (SC-Lipid Complex) was 12.50, and multiple layers of liposome vesicles were formed even at very low concentrations. This surfactant had a specific odor with a pale yellow flake, the specific gravity was 0.972, and the acid value was 0.12, indicating that it was synthesized with high purity. As a result of the emulsifying capacity experiment using 20 wt% capric/capric triglyceride and triethylhexanoin using SC-Lipid Complex, it was found to have 96.2% emulsifying power. SC LIPOSOME GENISTEIN was confirmed that a multi-layer liposome vesicle was formed through a transmission electron microscope (Cryo-TEM) for the supercritical liposome encapsulated with genistein. The primary liposome particle size in which genistein was encapsulated was 253.9 nm, and the secondary capsule size was 18.2 ㎛. Using genistein as the standard substance, the encapsulation efficiency of supercritical liposomes was 99.5%, and general liposomes were found to have an efficiency of 93.6%. In addition, the antioxidant activity experiment in which quercetin was sealed was confirmed by the DPPH method, and it was found that the supercritical liposome significantly maintained excellent antioxidant activity. In this study, thermodynamically unstable raw materials were sealed into liposomes without organic solvents in a supercritical state. Based on these results, it is expected that it can be applied to various forms such as highly functional skincare cosmetics, makeup cosmetics, and scalp protection cosmetics.
