The wind turbines with a rated capacity of 50kW or less are generally considered as small class. Small wind turbines are an attractive alternative for off-grid power system and electric home appliances, both as stand-alone application and in combination with other energy technologies such as energy storage system, photovoltaic, small hydro or diesel engines. The research objective is to develop the 50kW scale wind turbine blades in ways that resemble as closely as possible with the construction and methods of utility scale turbine blade manufacturing. The mold process based on wooden form is employed to create a hollow, multi-piece, lightweight design using carbon fiber and fiberglass with an epoxy based resin. A hand layup prototyping method is developed using high density foam molds that allows short cycle time between design iterations of aerodynamic platforms. A production process of five blades is manufactured and key components of the blade are tested by IEC 61400-23 to verify the appropriateness of the design. Also, wind system with developed blades is tested by IEC 61400-12 to verify the performance characteristics. The results of blade and turbine system test showed the available design conditions for commercial operation.

The compaction process using vibrating rollers in road construction is essential to increase soil stiffness in earthworks. Currently, there is no clear standard for the operation method of the compaction roller during compaction. Although simple quality inspection techniques have been developed, plate load test (PLT) and field density test (FDT) are the most frequently used test methods to evaluate the degree of compaction during road construction as the most frequently used quality inspection methods. However, both inspection methods are inefficient because they cannot perform quality inspection in all sections due to time and cost reasons. In this study, we analyzed how the operating conditions of vibrating rollers affect the compaction quality. An intelligent quality management system, which is a currently developed and commercialized technology, was used to obtain quality inspection results in all sections. As a result of the test, it was analyzed that the speed and vibration direction of the compaction roller had an effect on the compaction degree, and it was found that the compaction direction had no effect on the compaction degree.

For the development of low temperature anode-supported planar solid oxide fuel cell, the planar anode supports with the thickness of 0.8 to 1 mm and the area of 25, 100 and $150\;cm^2$ were fabricated by the tape casting method. The strength, porosity, gas permeability and electrical conductivity of the planar anode support were measured. The porosity of anode supports sintered at $1400^{\circ}C$ and then reduced in$H_2$ atmosphere was increased from $45.8\%\;to\;53.9\%$. The electrical conductivity of the anode support was $900 S/cm\;at\; 850^{\circ}C$ and its gas permeability was 6l/min at 1 atm in air atmosphere. The electrolyte layer and cathode layer were fabricated by slurry dip coating method and then had examined the thickness of $10{\mu}m$ and the gas permeability of 2.5 ml/min at 3 atm in air atmosphere. As preliminary experiment, cathode multi-layered structure consists of LSM-YSZ/LSM/LSCF. At single cell test using the electrolyte layer with thickness of 20 to $30{\mu}m$, we achieved $300\;mA/cm^2$ and 0.6V at $750^{\circ}C$

Klebsiella pneumoniae is found in the normal flora of the skin, mouth, respiratory tract, urinary tract, and intestines in human. However, the stain is opportunistic pathogen, which is the causative agent of community acquired pneumonia. Corn silk has been known to be effective for antimicrobial activity against pathogenic bacteria, including K. pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Shigella spp., Salmonella spp., Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, et al. In this study we focused on the antimicrobial properties of con silk water extract of K. penumoniae. K. pneumoniae isolates K. pneumoniae ATCC 13883 and broad-spectrum β-lactamase (BSBL), exteded-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL), carbapenemase-producers. Antimicrobial susceptibilities were determined by the disk diffusion method. Searches for bla genes were performed by PCR amplication and direct sequencing. MacConkey agar plate medium was prepared using the corn silk extracts (50% or 100%) instead of distilled water for antimicrobial activity test. The microbial growth inhibitory potential of K. pneumoniae was determined by using the MacConkey agar plate spreading method, and the plate was incubated 18 hr at 37℃. Genes encoding β-lactamases including SHV-1 (n=8), SHV-2a (n=8), SHV-5 (n=2), SHV-11 (n=2), SHV-12 (n=18), TEM-1 (n=10), CTX-M-3 (n=2), CTX-M-14 (n=2), CTX-M-15 (n=1), GES-5 (n=5), KPC-2 (n=6), KPC-3 (n=4), and NDM-1 (n=2) were detected. The corn silk extract showed significantly antimicrobial activity against K. pneumoniae ATCC 13883, but BSBLs, ESBLs, and carbapenemase producers were not. Therefore, corn silk extract is thought to be able to assist in the prevention and rapid recovery of infectious disease caused by K. pneumoniae.

The optimum conditions fer the measurement of texture profile of imitation crab-leg products were investigated by different conditions using Texture Analyser and the date were compared to those of sensory evaluations. The textural characteristics of surimi gels were compared with those of imitation crab-leg products. The TPA values of 5 different kinds of commercial imitation crab-leg product and 2 kinds of surimi gel products purchased in a market in Seoul were measured. In surimi gels, instrumental hardness and cohesiveness were higher than those of imitation crab-leg products, especially chewiness and gumminess were significantly higher than those of imitation crab-leg products. In imitation crab-leg products, hardness and cohesiveness increased and springiness decreased as the probe diameter increased from 12.5 mm to 24.6 mm. In the different compression ratio (60, 70, 80%), hardness increased and cohesiveness and springiness decreased as the compression ratio increased. The chewiness, gumminess, cohesiveness and hardness increased slightly as the cross-head speed increased from 0.8 to 2.4 mm/sec. Significant correlations between mechanical and sensory values were observed in gumminess, chewiness, cohesiveness and hardness. The optimum conditions for the TPA measurement of imitation crab-leg products were a cross-head speed of 2.4 mm/sec and 60% compression ratio with a flat probe having twice of the sample diameter (24.6 mm).

This study was aimed to minimized the impact force and vibration transmitted to transporting agricultural product from the power tiller trailer by installing vibration absorption device. The vibration absorbable trailer (I) mounted with leaf spring suspension and shock absorber was developed and compared on vibration absorption performance with the existing trailer (E) equipped no vibration absorption device. In order to identify the vibration absorption effect of the trailer developed in this study, the vibration accelerations, occurred during driving on paved road with loading 360 kg of pear, were measured and analyzed using FFT analyzer. The magnitude of average vibration acceleration was decreased highly for the improved trailer mounted with vibration absorption device in comparing with existing trailer in the frequency range under 60 Hz and under 80 Hz. And similar vibration absorption effect was represented for the improved trailer in all frequency range. Especially, in the frequency range between 40 Hz and 80 Hz, the magnitude of vibration acceleration for the improved trailer was decreased with 1/3 times in comparing with existing trailer. So, the transporting loss including damage of agricultural product could be decreased highly by using the improved vibration absorbable trailer mounted with leaf spring suspension and shock absorber simultaneously, designed in this study.

갈바륨 도금강판은 알루미늄의 우수한 차폐 특성과 내열성, 열 반사성을 가지며 아연의 희생방식 특성을 겸비하여 동일 부착량의 용융 아연도금 및 알루미늄 도금강판에 비해 우수한 내식성을 나타낸다고 알려져 있다. 또한 이것은 표면이 미려하고 경제성이 높아 건자재 용도로 현재까지도 세계적으로 널리 이용되고 있다. 여기서 지칭하는 바륨 도금강판(galvalume steel)은 아연과 알루미늄 도금강판의 장점을 접목하기 위해 55 Al-43.4 Zn-1.6 Si (wt.%)로 구성되어 개발된 3원계 성분의 합금도금강판이다. 한편, 최근에는 강재의 내식성을 향상시키기 위한 다양한 연구 결과에 의해 Zn-Al-Mg의 3원계 합금도금강판도 개발되어 사용되고 있다. 이것은 기존의 아연도금 강판 보다 10배 정도의 우수한 내식성을 나타내는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 특히, 이것은 도금된 평판부의 내식성은 물론 절단된 도금 단면부의 내식성도 매우 우수하다고 알려져 있다. 그러나 상기한 갈바륨 도금강판의 경우에는 도금된 표면부에 비해 단면부의 내식성이 상대적으로 취약한 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 갈바륨 도금강판의 내식성을 종합적으로 향상시키기 위하여 이 갈바륨 도금강판 상에 PVD 스퍼터링법에 의해 Mg 코팅막의 제작을 시도하였다. 여기서 Mg 코팅막은 후처리 된 갈바륨 도금강판 상에 Ar 공정압력 2 및 20 mTorr 조건 중 1.5 및 $3{\mu}m$ 두께로 제작하였다. 또한 제작한 코팅막에 대해서는 모폴로지 관찰(SEM) 및 결정구조 분석(XRD)을 하였고, 분극측정, 염수분무 시험(SST) 및 복합부식 시험(CCT)에 의해 표면 및 단면부의 내식성평가를 수행하였다. 또한 여기서는 염수분무 및 복합부식 시험 후의 시험편도 채취 하여 표면 및 단면부위에 대한 원소조성 분석(EPMA)과 결정구조 분석(XRD)을 실시하였다. 이상의 실험 결과에 의하면, 본 실험에서 제작한 Mg 코팅막은 그 두께가 두꺼울수록 표면 Mg 결정립의 크기가 증가하였고, 그 부식속도가 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 또한 여기서는 공정압력이 높은 조건에서 제작한 막일수록 Mg(002)면 피크 강도가 감소하고 Mg(101)면 피크의 배향성이 증가하였다. 그때 그 막의 내식성은 향상되는 경향을 나타내었다. 그리고 종합적으로 염수분무 및 복합부식 시험 결과에 의하면 Mg이 코팅된 갈바륨 도금강판은 기존 갈바륨 도금강판 보다 내식성이 현저히 향상되었다. 특히, 단면부 내식성의 경우에는 기존 대비 5배 이상 향상되는 경향을 나타내었다. 여기서 단면부 내식특성 분석을 위한 EPMA 원소조성 분석 결과에 의거하면, 부식 초기에는 마그네슘의 부식생성물에 의해 단면부가 치밀하게 보호되고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 그 이후에는 부식이 지속적으로 진행됨에 따라 갈바륨 도금층에서 용출된 알루미늄 및 아연 성분이 마그네슘과 함께 치밀한 부식생성물을 형성하여 단면부를 차폐함에 따라 단면부의 내식성이 크게 향상된 것으로 생각된다. 이러한 부식생성물의 결정구조 분석 결과에 따르면, 염수분무와 복합부식 시험에서는 공통적으로 MgO, $Mg(OH)_2$ 이외에도 Simonkolleite상 등이 형성되었다. 또한 건-습 반복 부식시험인 복합부식시험 후에는 $Mg_5(CO_3)_4(OH)_24H_2O$(Hydromagnesite)상 등이 형성됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 즉, 본 실험에서 후처리된 갈바륨 도금강판 상에 제작한 마그네슘 코팅막의 경우에는 상기와 같은 다양한 부식반응에 의해 표면 및 단면부에 형성된 Mg계 부식생성물과 $Zn_5(OH)_8Cl_2H_2O$(Simonkolleite)상에 의해서 표면은 물론 단면부 내식성이 크게 향상된 것으로 사료된다.

This test was performed to evaluate the bactericidal efficacy of Fumagari OPP$^{(R)}$, fumigation disinfectant, containing 20% ortho-phenylphenol against Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium). In preliminary tests, both E. coli and S. typhimurium working culture suspension number (N value) was $4.0{\times}10^8$ CFU/mL. And all of the colony numbers on the carriers exposed the fumigant (n1, n2, n3) were higher than 0.5N1 (the number of bacterial test suspentions by pour plate method), 0.5N2 (the number of bacterial test suspentions by filter membrane method) and 0.5N1, respectively. In addition, the mean number of bacteria recovered on the control-carriers (T value) was $3.4{\times}10^6$ CFU/mL. In the bactericidal effect of the fumigant, the reduction number of S. typhimurium and E. coli (d value) was 5.26 and 5.64 logCFU/mL, respectively. According to the French standard for the fumigant, the d value for the effective bactericidal fumigant should be over than 5 logCFU/mL. With the results of this study, Fumagari OPP$^{(R)}$ has an effective bactericidal activity, then the fumigant can be applied to disinfect food materials and kitchen appliances contaminated with pathogenic bacteria.

The experimental research on a high-altitude environment simulation of space launch vehicle is important for securing independent technologies with launching space vehicles and completing missions. This study selected an altitude of 65 km for the experiment environment where it exceeded Mach number of 6 after the launch of Korean Space Launch Vehicle(KSLV-II). Shock tunnel was used to replicate the flight condition. After flow establishment, in order to confirm aerodynamic characteristics and normal and oblique shockwaves, the flow verification was carried out by measuring stagnation pressure and heat flux of a forebody model, and shockwave stand-off distance of a hemispherical model. In addition, a shock-free technique to recover free-stream condition has been developed and verified. From the results of the three verification tests, it was confirmed that the flow was replicated with the error of about ${\pm}3%$. The error between the slope angle of inclined shockwave of the scaled down transition section model using the shock-free shape and the slope angle of the horizontal plate model, and between the theoretical and the experimental value of the static pressure of the model were confirmed to be 2% and 1%, respectively. As a result, the efficiency of the shockwave cancellation technique has been verified.

This study was performed to evaluate the bactericidal efficacy of a fumigation disinfectant containing 35% paraformaldehyde against Salmonella Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium). In this study, the efficacy test of a fumigant against S. Typhimurium was carried out according to French standard NF T 72-281. The S. Typhimurium working culture suspension number (N value), all bacteria numbers on the carriers exposed to the fumigant (n1, n2, and n3), the number of bacterial suspensions by the pour plate method (N1), the number of bacterial suspensions by the filter membrane method (N2), and the mean number of bacteria recovered on the control carriers (T value), were obtained from the preliminary test. In addition, the reduction number of S. Typhimurium exposed to the fumigant (d value) was calculated using the T value, the mean number of bacteria in the recovery solution (n'1) and the mean number of bacteria on carriers plated in agar (n'2). The N value was $5.5{\times}10^8$ colony forming units (CFU)/mL, and n1, n2, and n3 were higher than 0.5N1, 0.5N2 and 0.5N1, respectively. Additionally, the T value was $3.5{\times}10^6CFU/carrier$. In terms of the bactericidal effect of the fumigant, the d value was 5.25. According to the French standard for fumigants, the d value for an effective bactericidal fumigant should be greater than 5. The results indicated that the fumigant containing 35% paraformaldehyde had an efficient bactericidal activity against S. Typhimurium, and, therefore, can be used to disinfect food materials and kitchen appliances contaminated with foodborne bacteria.
