에탄올과 같은 저온 상변화물질의 팽창과 응축과정에서 발생하는 압력과 진공상태를 이용하여 물을 양수하는 물펌프는 태양열과 같이 에너지강도는 약하지만 그 자원이 무한하고 청정한 에너지원을 이용하기에 매우 이상적인 장치이다. 이와 관련한 국내 연구로서는 김 등(2002)에 의한 펜탄의 증기압을 이용한 물펌프장치의 에너지변환실험과 작동사이클 과정에서의 열역학적인 해석을 통한 성능분석이 있다. 장치의 설계와 관련하여 Kwant 등(1981)은 작동물질의 응축액을 가열부측으로 되돌리기 위한 방법으로 응축부와 물탱크, 공기탱크를 분리하여 설계한 바 있고, 온도변화에 따른 탱크효율에 대해 분석하였다.

n-Pentane and n-hexane, previously regarded as non-hydrate formers, are found to form structure H hydrate in mixtures with 2,2-dimethylbutane. Even though they are thought to be too large to fit into the largest cage of the structure H hydrate, powder XRD and NMR measurements show that they form gas hydrates in mixtures with other sH hydrate former. These findings are of fundamental interest and also will impact the composition and location of natural gas hydrates and their potential as global energy resource and climate change materials.

Attempts are being made to investigate temperatures dependence of minimum ignition energy (MIE) based on concept of quantity of heat and thermal ignition theory. Regression equations for predicting MIE by means of temperature variations on the basis of statistical and mathematical methods are proposed. This study is undertaken to learn what proposed method is satisfactory hydrocarbons(propane and pentane). The proposed method has been tested and compared sucessfully with previously reported data in various journal.

In this study, the energy conversion equipment from the radiation energy to mechanical energy by using n­pentane as the operating fluid was constructed and the performance to pump the water was tested for the utilization of solar powered water pump. The equipment was designed optimally, after the theoretical analyses of the water pumping head and water quantity per cycle were done. The pentane vapour temperature in the condenser and the temperature of the outlet water from the condenser became lowered and the heat transfer rate became higher with decreasing the water inlet level to the condenser. The temperature difference between the condenser and the water tank was significant. Therefore, the distance between the water tank and condenser was recommended to be shorten and the diameter of their connecting pipe was recommended to be narrow in order to reduce the resistance of the fluid passage and improve the heat transfer rate. The amount of water pumped was 1.6­2.4 liters. Mass flow rate of the cooling water became lowered when the cooling water pipe was prolonged from the condenser to improve the heat transfer rate.

This study investigated the removal efficiency of residual pentane from paclitaxel according to the drying temperature in the case of rotary evaporation, and performed a kinetic and thermodynamic analysis of the drying process. At all the temperatures (25, 30, 35, 40, and $45^{\circ}C$), a large amount of the residual solvent was initially removed during the drying, and the drying efficiency increased when increasing the drying temperature. Five drying models (Newton, Page, modified Page, Henderson and Pabis, Geometric) were then used for the kinetic analysis, where the Henderson and Pabis model showed the highest coefficient of determination ($r^2$) and lowest root mean square deviation (RMSD), indicating that these models were the most suitable. Furthermore, in the thermodynamic analysis of the rotary evaporation, the activation energy ($E_a$) was 4.9815 kJ/mol and the standard Gibbs free energy change (${\Delta}G^0$) was negative, whereas the standard enthalpy change (${\Delta}H^0$) and standard entropy change (${\Delta}S^0$) were both positive, indicating that the drying process was spontaneous, endothermic, and irreversible.

It has been found that the addition of cosurfactant is necessary in order to expand three phase region containing middle phase microemulsion in ternary systems containing alkyl ethoxylate (AEO) nonionic surfactant, commercial lubricant and water. Phase behavior in the surfactant systems with addition of cosurfactant over a temperature range of 30 to $60^{\circ}C$ showed different trends depending on surfactant, temperature and chain length of alcohol added. For the $C_{12}E_4$ system, addition of n-pentanol and n-hexanol both produced a three phase region over a wide range of temperatures but the middle-phase formed was found to be a $L_3$ or D' phase which would not facilitate solubilization of high molecular weight lubricants. On the other hand, for the $C_{12}E_5$ system, the middle-phase microemulsion was found to be formed with addition of a rather long-chain alcohol such as n-hexanol, n-heptanol, n-octanol, or n-nonanol. The results shown with the addition of cosurfactant was understood in connection with interfacial tension measurements and composition analysis. The inability of the hydrocarbon region of the surfactant films to incorporate the large lubricant molecules and high solubility of a hydrophobic surfactant are thought to be the chief reasons for poor solubilization with D' phase.

To investigate the pressure dependence of minimum ignition energy(MIE), thermal ignition theory, concept of heat transfer, ideal gas law, and kinetic theory are discussed. Correlation equations for the MIE and pressure were obtained through a regression analysis of reported data. In the proposed methodology the predicted MIE with pressure variations agree with reported data within a few average absolute deviations(A.A.D.). Therefore the proposed methodology has provided to be the general method for predicting the MIE of hydrocarbons.

Over recent several years, researches for the less sensitive gun propellant development have been carried out with promising the product of propellants which have temperature independent characteristics using the new energetic plasticizing mixture as Di-nitro-diaza-alkanes. During this study, the promising propellant formulation having temperature ballistic properties as well as better behaviors concerning the cold brittleness of the materials was confirmed by results in tests of a closed bomb and 40mm Gun firing. On-going research on the optimized shape, formulation and processes of the propellant is progressing. From now on it should be done present study to establish the better composition and processes.

Studies on the molecular interactions of dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) with water and/or some alkanols were carried out by vapor pressure osmometry at 40$^{\circ}C$. Negative deviation from Raoult's law was observed for the DMSO-water, methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, and 2-methyl-1-propanol systems, whereas positive deviation from Raoult's law was observed for the DMSO-1-butanol and 1-pentanol systems. The results were interpreted in terms of molecular interactions between unlike molecules, and of self-association of DMSO molecules, respectively. Measured chemical shift of hydroxyl proton of the solvents also supported the results.

This work shows the result of numerical simulation on a reacting flow by varying atomization properties which can be obtained from a injector for a small and low power aircraft gas turbine engine. Because the atomization properties mainly affect on the performance of the engine, a lot of efficiency tests are needed when a new injector is developed. Nowadays researches has been actively performed using computational analysis. Using commercial package CFD-ACE+, basic studies on the reacting flow field have been conducted. Those results show that the reaction rate is increased when higher pressure and wider angle spray condition are used. More smaller parcels can also enhance the fuel-air reaction.
