PTC thermistor has been fabricated with as-received $BaTiO_{3}$ powder and its electrical properties were investigated. The resistivity of the PTC thermistor was measured at $20^{\circ}C$ intervals from $20^{\circ}C$ to $200^{\circ}C$. The electrical characteristics of the PTC thermistor are determined by the ac complex impedance analysis. The average grain size measured with a scanning electron microscope increased from $3.8{\mu}m$ to $8.8{\mu}m$ with increasing sintering temperature between $1280^{\circ}C$ and $1400^{\circ}C$. The maximum resistivity jump was $4{\times}10^{5}$. The bulk resistivity of the thermistor sintered above $1340^{\circ}C$ decreased with increasing temperature of the measurement. The grain boundary resistance increased exponentially, the grain boundary capacitance decreased, and the built-in potential at the grain boundary increased with increasing temperature of the measurement. The charge densiy at the grain boundary increased with increasing temperature up to $110^{\circ}C$, which leveled off with further increase in measuring temperature.

The effect of humidifying methods on the mean size of droplets ejected from humidifier and distributions of relative humidity in a graft-taking enhancement system (GTES) was investigated. The mean sizes of droplets ejected from an ultrasonic humidifier and a steam humidifier with electrodes were 7.58$\pm$0.14 and 9.01$\pm$0.06 $\mu$m, respectively. Assuming that the particles ejected from humidifiers were mutually combined with distance, the mean diameter of droplets became larger as the distance apart from the outlet of humidifiers increased. When the relative humidity in GRS was controlled at 90％ using the ultrasonic humidifiers, the average relative humidity at the height of 0.4, 1.1 and 1.8 m were 92.1$\pm$5.3, 90.9$\pm$5.6, and 89.7$\pm$6.8%, respectively. However, the average relative humidity using the steam humidifier with electrodes showed 93.4 $\pm$5.4, 90.7$\pm$5.9, and 89.3$\pm$7.0%, respectively. Therefore, it was concluded that humidification by ultrasonic humidifier would be appropriate for the uniform distribution of relative humidity in GTES.

The spray characteristics of dual orifice injector were investigated under two different fuels through measurement of SMD, number density and volume flux by using PDPA system. In this experiment, we found out that the droplet size and spray structure are strongly depend on fuel density and viscosity.

수박, 토마토 등에 널리 적용되는 삽접, 할접, 핀접 등의 접목 방법에서는 접수의 배축이 절단된 상태에서 접목이 이루어진다. 그러므로 상기의 접목 방법이 적용될 때 접수의 위조를 방지하고 접목묘의 활착율을 증대시키려면 접목 초기에 접목묘로부터 증발산이 과도하게 이루어지지 않도록 활착 환경이 조절되어야 한다. 인공광하에서 활착되는 접목묘로부터 증발산을 억제하면서 활착율을 높이려면 활착실 내에서의 상대습도가 90% 이상으로 높게 유지되어야 한다(Kim, 2000). (중략)

In order to synthesize polymer particle containing inorganic material, styrene and nbutylmetacrylate were copolymerized with alumina by dispersion polymerization. The ratio in weight of styrene to n-butyl methacrylate was 3:1. Poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidon) and 2,2'-azobis(isobutyronitrile) were added as stabilizer and as initiator, respectively. The change of particle size was investigated with concentration of initiator, the type of medium, the mixed solubility parameter (${\delta}_{mix}$) of medium, and coupling agent. The enhancement in concentration of initiator resulted in slight increase of particle size. The increase of polarizability in medium also yielded the increase of particle size. In case of changing the ratio of isopropanol to distilled water, we could find relationship of $[{\delta}_{mix}]^{-4.01}\;{\propto}$ particle size and $[{\delta}_{mix}]^{-0.83}\;{\propto}$ particle size distribution(PSD). The type and the concentration of coupling agent showed no effect on the particle size and PSD.

Bed material in natural streams is affected by geological characteristics of upstream and acting focre by flow of stream. Acting force in streams are also affected by bed slope and discharge of streams. Yamamoto(1994) suggested that channel reaches with similar slope share similar characteristics values in representative bed material size, tractive force, channel width and depth. He also suggested that main factors dominating channel characteristics are mean annual discharge, epresentative bed material size and bed slope. Bed material shows physical and ecological characteristics of channels. In this research, characteristics of bed material in natural or close to natural streams were studied and compared with Janpanese stream data. In the result, characteristics of gravel and sand material can be presented in the term of non-dimensional tractive force, bed slope and bed material size.

Nickel fine powders were prepared from nickel chloride aqueous solution containing ethanol as an organic solvent, and their oxidation behaviors were investigated. The reduction reaction by hydrazine from nickel chloride aqueous solution containing ethanol depend on reaction temperature. The reduction reaction time by hydrazine decreased with the increase of reaction temperature. By controlling reaction temperature, the products could be obtained spherical particles in the range of 0.1 $\mu\textrm{m}$~1.0 $\mu\textrm{m}$. Also, As reaction temperature increased from $40^{\circ}C$ to $80^{\circ}C$, the particle size slightly increased and had a broad size distribution owing to the presence of the coarse particles. The mean particle size and specific surface area of nickel powders prepared at $60^{\circ}C$ were 0.3 $\mu\textrm{m}$ and 31.8 $\m^2$/g, respectively. Weight loss of the powders at $300^{\circ}C$ was due to composition of $_Ni(OH)2$. In case of heat treatment at $200^{\circ}C$ in air, oxidation resistance of nickel powders was remarkable than that of as-synthesized.

In this study, a electrostatic filter which could be applicable to road environment was developed and evaluated in adsorption capacity. The evaluation were performance for removal by particle size and adsorption amount by pressure using ASERAE 52.1 and 52.2. The range of size for removal test was $0.3{\mu}m{\sim}10.0{\mu}m$ which had 12 steps. The filter showed 91.3% removal efficiency from $2.5{\mu}m$ and under the size, average 53.5% proportional to decreasing size value. The weight removal was 96.7% from 22.6 mmaq, initial pressure to 35 mmaq, end pressure with $715.9g/m^2$, the adsorption amount. The shape of isotherm was expressed as Langmuir's one. After washing saturated filter with dust to end pressure, the initial pressure and adsorption amount of the filter showed a light drop with no removal efficiency decline.

This experiment was undertaken to investigate the atomization characteristics of the high viscosity biodiesel blended fuel and ultrasonic energy irradiation one. Test fuels were conventional diesel fuel and biodiesel one. We compared to the characteristics of viscosity and surface tension, SMD between high viscosity biodiesel blended fuel and ultrasonic energy irradiation one. Sauter mean diameter was measured under the variation of the spray distance. Viscosity and surface tension were measured under the variation of the time trace. To measure the droplet size, we used the Malvern system 2600c. Droplet size distribution was analyzed from the result data of Malvern system. Through this experiment, we found that the condition of the ultrasonic energy irradiation situation had smaller Sauter mean diameter of droplet, viscosity and surface tension than those of the conventional situation.

Nickel fine powders were prepared from aqueous nickel chloride solution containing organic solvents and the effect of the addition of the organic solvent on the formation of nickel powders were investigated. All products were spherical particles in the range of 0.1∼1.0 $\mu\textrm{m}$ and the agglomeration of particles did not appear. In case of containing 40 vol% of 1-propanol, the particle size reduction and homogeneity of the powders were remarkable. The average particle size and the specific surface area of the powders produced with 40 vol% of 1-propanol were 0.3 $\mu\textrm{m}$ and 16.4 m$^2$/g respectively. The reduction reaction time by hydrazine decreased with increasing of the content of 1-propanol, and was 5 min for 40 vol% of 1-propanol. The oxidation of synthesized nickel powders occurred at 320$^{\circ}C$ and weight loss at 300$^{\circ}C$ was due to dehydration of Ni(OH)$_2$.
