CdS-QD particles are a nano-sized semiconducting crystal that emits light. Their optical properties show great potential in many areas of applications such as disease-diagnostic reagents, optical technologies, media industries and solar cells. The wavelength of emitting light depends on the particle size and thus the quality control of CdS-QD particle requires accurate determination of the size distribution. In this study, CdS-QD particles were synthesized by a simple ${\gamma}$-ray irradiation method. As a particle stabilizer polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) were added. In order to determine the size and size distribution of the CdS-QD particles, sedimentation field-flow fractionation (SdFFF) was employed. Effects of carious parameters including the the flow rate, external field strength, and field programming conditions were investigated to optimize SdFFF for analysis of CdS-QD particles. The Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis show the primary single particle size was ~4 nm, TEM images indicate that the primarty particles were aggregated to form secondary particles having the mean size of about 159 nm. As the concentration of the stabilizer increases, the particle size tends to decrease. Mean size determined by SdFFF, TEM, and dynamic light scattering (DLS) were 126, 159, and 152 nm, respectively. Results showed SdFFF may become a useful tool for determination of the size and its distribution of various types of inorganic particles.

Dam-break flow occurs when an elevated dam suddenly collapses, resulting in the catastrophic release of rapid and uncontrolled impounded water. This study compares laminar and turbulent closure models for simulating three-dimensional dam-break flows using OpenFOAM. The Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) model, specifically the k-ε model, is employed to capture turbulent dissipation. Two scenarios are evaluated based on a laboratory experiment and a modified multi-layered block obstacle scenario. Both models effectively represent dam-break flows, with the turbulent closure model reducing oscillations. However, excessive dissipation in turbulent models can underestimate water surface profiles. Improving numerical schemes and grid resolution enhances flow recreation, particularly near structures and during turbulence. Model stability is more significantly influenced by numerical schemes and grid refinement than the use of turbulence closure. The k-ε model's reliance on time-averaging processes poses challenges in representing dam-break profiles with pronounced discontinuities and unsteadiness. While simulating turbulence models requires extensive computational efforts, the performance improvement compared to laminar models is marginal. To achieve better representation, more advanced turbulence models like Large Eddy Simulation (LES) and Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) are recommended, necessitating small spatial and time scales. This research provides insights into the applicability of different modeling approaches for simulating dam-break flows, emphasizing the importance of accurate representation near structures and during turbulence.

항 또는 폐쇄성 만에서의 수질은 만내로 유입하는 오염부하량이 얼마나 원활하게 외해로 방출되느냐에 따라 좌우된다 이러한 문제는 해수교환, 해수교류라는 말로 표현되고 있다. 일반적인 교환의 개념에서 볼 때 해수교환이란 어떤 해역(수괴)과 어떤 해역(수괴)이 현상의 1주기 사이에 서로 해수를 교환하는 것을 말한다. 실제 해양에서 물질수송은 조류, 바람, 밀도류 그리고 해류등이 복합적으로 작용하고 있으며, 어떤 한 지점에서 1조석주기에 대하여 이러한 성분을 적분한 흐름을 잔차류라고 부른다. (중략)

The neutron fluxes and dose rates due to radiation streaming from reactor cavities were evaluated at the KNU-1 reactor pressure vessel (RPY) head flange elevation. To find a suitable cross section data set for the evaluation, a benchmark test was performed for three data sets; DLC-23/CASK, DLC-31/FEWG, and DLC-47/BUGLE. The leakage fluxes from the KNU-1 RPV outer surface were calculated with two different methods: 1-D calculation with ANISN, and 2-D calculation with DOT3.5. The Monte Carlo procedures as embodied in the MORSE-CG code combined with the albedo option were applied to predict the radiation distributions in the cavity region. Finally, the activation analysis of the stud bolts was performed to identify the major activation products.

체외수정을 기반으로 이루어지는 성게의 수정 과정은 성게 주변에서 형성되는 복잡한 난류 흐름의 영향을 받게 된다. 성게 몸체의 하류부에 형성되는 재순환 영역 (recirculation zone) 내에는 다양한 난류 와류 흐름이 존재하며, 이들은 성게 몸체에서 방출된 정자와 난자의 충돌을 일으키고 수정 과정에 지대한 영향을 미친다. 즉, 성게의 수정 과정을 이해하기 위해서는 성게 주변의 흐름에 대한 유체역학적 관점에서의 분석이 수행되어야 한다. 본 연구의 목적은 성게 몸체에 의해 발생한 난류 흐름이 성게의 체외 수정에 미치는 영향에 대해 조사하는 것이다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 상용 프로그램인 오픈폼 (OpenFaom)을 활용하여 수치 모의를 수행하였다. 성게 주변의 유동장은 LES (Large Eddy Simulation)을 기반으로 모의하였고, 정자와 난자의 확산 궤적은 라그랑지안 입자 추적 (Lagrangian Particle Tracking) 알고리즘을 통해 구현하였다. 총 5개의 유속 조건 (0.025 - 0.20 m/s) 에 대해 모의를 수행하였으며 정자와 난자 사이의 거리를 바탕으로 수정률을 산정하였다. 정자와 난자의 뭉쳐있거나 퍼져있는 공간적인 분포 형태는 Standardized Morisita 지수를 통해 수치적으로 표현하였으며 이들과 수정률과의 관계를 규명하였다. 연구 결과에 따르면 성게 수정은 유속 조건이 0.1 m/s일 때 가장 빈번하게 발생하였으며, 성게 수정의 성공 여부는 크게 2가지 조건에 의해 결정되었다. 첫 번째로, Standardized Morisita 지수가 높을수록 다시 말해 생식세포들이 공간적으로 뭉쳐있어야 하며 두 번째는, 생식세포들을 충돌시킬 수 있는 원동력인 작은 와류가 존재해야 한다. 와류의 크기가 너무 크게 되면 생식세포들은 충돌하지 않고 확산만 되기 때문에 오히려 수정률이 감소하였다. 영역별로 분석한 결과에 따르면, 성게 몸체에 의해 형성된 재순환 영역이 수정과정에 있어 가장 지배적인 영역임을 확인하였다.

For an accurate prediction of the temperature field induced by heated water discharged into a shallow crossflow, a two-dimensional near-field numerical model is developed. It is based on a 4-equation turbulence model in which the transport equations for mean of the temperature fluctuation squared and its dissipation rate are added to those of a 2-equation turbulence model which cannot give the information of the thermal time scale ratio. Vertical diffusion is also considered by including buoyancy production and turbulence heat flux terms. The developed model is applied to a steady flow in an open channel with simple geometry and the results are compared with existing experimental data and those of the already established 2-equation turbulence model. Numerical results of the model agree with the experimental data better than those of the 2-equation model. The present model also simulates quite adequately the physical characteristics of thermal discharge in the jet entrainment and stable regions.

A three-dimensional time-dependent coastal ocean model experiment of two different turbulence parameterizations is conducted. One of the turbulence parameterization is the constant eddy-mixing formulation, C1, and the other a stratification dependent eddy-mixing formulation, C2. The flow in C2 in strongly baroclinic, and limits vertical mixing of fresh and saline waters. The outflow discharged from an estuary is highly inertial and form a strong front of plume in C2 than that in C1. Because of the stronger outflow in C2, supercritical flow state, for which the near surface outflow velocity exceeds the baroclinic phase speed, can exist off the mouth of the estuary. The adjustment process of flow in the less saline waters are quite different for C1 and C2, which is dictated by the strongly baroclinic nature of the flow in C2.

the basic model of chemical reactor using glow discharge, we used cathode discharge cell with vacant cavity in the middle. Currently glow discharge is widely studied as a radiation source or atomization device in atomic spectroscopy and remarkable technological achievements are made through the graft with other analysis devices such as microanalysis and steel analysis.1 Additionally, as the characteristics of basic glow discharge and radiation have been reviewed many times, those results could be used in this experiment.2-3 In 1993, an article regarding the treatment of poisonous gas in the air using low temperature plasma was published. According to this article, if DC Glow Discharge is used under continuous atmospheric flow, poisonous gases such as SO2 and NO can be removed.4 Based on those findings, we designed highly efficient reactor where stable air plasma is composed and all air flow pass the negative glow area passing through the tube. It was observed that the cathode tube type glow discharge developed in this study would be economical, easy to use and could be used as radiation source as well.

A Method to determine Cr(III)ion in aqueous solution by chemiluminescence method using a stopped flow system has been studied. The method is based on the increased chemiluminescence intensity with the addition of Cr(III) to a solution of lucigenin a nd hyrogen peroxide. The effects of pH, injection volumes of reagent and sample, and concentration of lucigenin and hyrogen peroxide on the chemiluminescence intensity have been investigated. The calibration curve for Cr(III) ion was linear over the range from 1.0${\times}$$10^{-6}$ to 1.0${\times}$$10^{-3}$M and the detection limit was 5.2${\times}$$10^{-8}$M under the optimal experimental condition of 437nm, 12.8,and 1.0${\times}$$10^{-6}$ and 2.0M for emission wavelength, pH, and concentration of lucigenin and hyrogen peroxide, respectively.
