Objectives: Outdoor tobacco smoke can penetrate into the indoor environment through cracks in the building envelope. This study aimed to characterize the particle size distribution of infiltrated secondhand smoke (SHS) through the gap in a single glazed and a secondary glazed window according to pressure differences in a chamber. Methods: Two polyvinyl chloride sliding windows were evaluated for infiltration, one with a glazed window and the other with a secondary glazed window. Each window was mounted and sealed in a polycarbonate chamber. The air in the chamber was discharged to the outside to establish pressure differences in the chamber (${\Delta}P$). Outdoor smoking sources were simulated at a one-meter distance from the window side of the chamber. The particle size distribution of the infiltrated SHS was measured in the chamber using a portable aerosol spectrometer. The particle size distribution of SHS inside the chamber was normalized by the outdoor peak for fine particles. Results: The particle size distribution of SHS inside the chamber was similar regardless of window type and ${\Delta}P$. It peaked at $0.2-0.3{\mu}m$. Increases in particulate matter (PM) concentrations from SHS infiltration were higher with the glazed window than with the secondary glazed window. PM concentrations of less than $1{\mu}m$ increased as ${\Delta}P$ was increased inside the chamber. Conclusions: The majority of infiltrated SHS particles through window gap was $0.2-0.3{\mu}m$ in size. Outdoor SHS particles infiltrated more with a glazed window than with a secondary glazed window. Particle sizes of less than $1{\mu}m$ were associated with ${\Delta}P$. These findings can be a reference for further research on the measurement of infiltrated SHS in buildings.

일반적으로 액체로켓 엔진의 추력실에서 연소중 어느 정도의 열 유속을 발생하는가를 아는 것은 추력실을 냉각하기 위한 가장 중요한 사항 중에 하나이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 Kerosen/LOx를 추진제로 사용하는 소형 액체로켓 엔진의 추력실에서 발생하는 heat flux를 측정하기 위하여 thin wall chamber를 제작하였다. wall thickness는 1mm로 하였으며 추력실 외벽에 총 9개의 열전쌍을 부착하여 연소시험을 수행함으로써 연소중 변화하는 추력실의 외벽온도를 측저하였다. System을 1차원 비정상상태로 가정하고 측정된 추력실의 외벽온도로부터 one-dimensional the transient energy equation을 이용하여 추력실에서 발생하는 열유속 및 열전달계수를 예측하였다. 혼합비 2,0의 조건에서 실험변수로서 연소압에 변화를 주었으며 실험결과 열전달계수가 연소압에 0.88승에 비례하는 관계식을 얻어낼 수 있었다.

The secondary aerosol forming potential of ambient air was first measured with the Potential Aerosol Mass(PAM) chamber at Gosan supersite on Jeju island from October 22 to November 5, 2010. PAM chamber is a small flowthrough photo-oxidation chamber with extremely high OH and $O_3$ levels. The OH exposure in the PAM chamber was $(2{\pm}0.4){\times}10^{11}{\sim}(6{\pm}1.2){\times}10^{11}$ molecules $cm^{-3}$ s and was similar to 2 to 5 days of aging in the atmosphere. By periodically turning on and off UV lamps in the PAM chamber, ambient aerosol and newly formed aerosol (e.g. called as PAM aerosol) was alternately measured. Aerosol number and mass concentration in the range of 10~487 nm in diameter was measured by SMPS 3034. With UV lamps on, the nucleation mode particles smaller than 50 nm in diameters were formed. Their number concentration was greater than 105 $cm^{-3}$, leading to increase in aerosol mass by 0~8 ${\mu}gm^{-3}$. The variations of PAM and ambient aerosols were greatly dependent on characteristics of air masses such as precursor concentrations and degree of aging. This preliminary results suggests that PAM chamber is useful to assess the aerosol formation potential of air mass and its impact on the air quality. The further analysis of data with gaseous and particulate measurements will be done.

Background and objective: Particulate matter (PM) has a fatal effect on health. There have been many studies on the use of plants such as trees and shrubs as eco-friendly and sustainable biofilter for the removal of PM. In forming more green space, ground cover plants play an important role in multi-layered planting. This study was conducted to investigate the ability of plants to reduce PM, targeting Korean native ground cover plants with high availability in urban green spaces. Methods: For 4 species of Asteraceae, 4 species of Liliaceae, and 3 species of Rosaceae, one species of plants at a time were placed in an acrylic chamber (800 × 800 × 1000 mm, L × W × H) modeling an indoor space. After the injection of PM, the amount of PM remaining in the chamber over time was investigated. Results: For all three types of PM (PM10, PM2.5, PM1), significant difference occurred in the amount of PM remaining between plant species after 1 hour in the Liliaceae chamber, 3 hours in the Asteraceae chamber, and 5 hours in the Rosaceae chamber. With Liliaceae, the leaf area and the amount of PM remaining in the chamber showed a negative (-) correlation. With the Asteraceae and Rosaceae, there was a weak negative correlation between the leaf area and the amount of PM remaining in the chamber. Conclusion: When using ground cover plants as a biofilter to remove PM, it is considered effective to select a species with a large total leaf area, especially for Liliaceae.

논포장에서 배출되는 메탄가스를 측정하기 위하여 간이폐쇄정태 chamber법을 이용하여 대표적인 시료를 채취할 수 있도록 chamber내 시료채취 높이, 시료채취시 시간간격, 하루중 시료 채취시간을 검토하였다. 1. 대표적인 시료채취를 위한 chamber내 높이는 65cm이었고 chamber 하반부에서 시료가 균일하게 섞이도록 DC fan을 추가로 설치할 필요성이 인정되었다. 2. 시간경과에 따른 chamber내 메탄농도의 변화 및 기온의 변화에서 보면 시료채취를 개시하여 30분이내에 시료를 채취하는 것이 바람직하였다. DC fan으로 chamber내부의 공기가 섞이도록 하는 것은 대표적인 시료를 얻기 위한 것 뿐 아니라 chamber내열평형을 이루어 시료(試料) 채취기간중(採取期間中) 식물(植物)의 생리적(生理的) 활성(活性)에 최소한(最小限)의 변화를 주는 방법으로 판단되었다. 3. 하루중 대표적인 메탄 배출량을 나타내는 오전 9시~12시에 시료를 채취하여 분석하되 부득이한 경우에는 또 하나의 평균적인 배출량을 나타내는 오후 6시~8시의 시료를 채취하여 분석하여도 가능할 것으로 판단되었다. 4. 수도주간(水稻株間)진 토양(土壤)에서 메탄 배출을 측정하는데 사용하는 소형의 chamber는 토양을 교란할 수 있으므로 설치한 후 최소한 6시간이 경과되어야 chamber내 메탄농도가 주위의 메탄 농도로 회복되었다.

This study was conducted to analyze the variations of air temperature, relative humidity and pressure in a low pressure chamber for plant growth. The low pressure chamber was composed of an acrylic cylinder, a stainless plate, a mass flow controller, an elastomer pressure controller, a read-out-box, a vacuum pump, and sensors of air temperature, relative humidity, and pressure. The pressure leakage in the low pressure chamber was greatly affected by the material and connection method of tubes. The leakage rate in the low pressure chamber with the welding of the stainless tubes and a plate decreased by $0.21kPa{\cdot}h^{-1}$, whereas the leakage in the low pressure chamber with teflon tube and rubber O-ring was given by $1.03kPa{\cdot}h^{-1}$. Pressure in the low pressure chamber was sensitively fluctuated by the air temperature inside the chamber. An elastomer pressure controller was installed to keep the pressure in the low pressure chamber at a setting value. However, inside relative humidity at dark period increased to saturation level.. Two levels (25 and 50kPa) of pressure and two levels (500 and 1,000sccm) of mass flow rate were provided to investigate the effect of low pressure and mass flow rate on relative humidity inside the chamber. It was concluded that low setting value of pressure and high mass flow rate of mixed gas were the effective methods to control the pressure and to suppress the excessive rise of relative humidity inside the chamber.

A combustion chamber is designed and fabricated for studying the combustion characteristics of counterflow flames at elevated pressure and establishing the fundamental combustion database of counterflow flames. The combustion chamber design aims to allow the maximum operating pressure of 11 bar and be able to conduct flame visualization and the measurements of flame extinction limits, flame temperature and combustion emissions at elevated pressure. Preliminary tests for counterflow nonpremixed $CH_4-NH_3-N_2$/air flames at 1-3 bar have been conducted, and the results confirm the proper operation of the designed chamber.

In the production of internal combustion engines, there has been a move towards the development of high performance engines with improved fuel efficiency, lighter weight and smaller sizes. These trends help to answer problems in engines related to thermal load and abnormal combustion. In order to investigate these problems, a thin film-type probe for instantaneously measuring temperatures has been suggested. A method for manufacturing such a probe was established in this study. The instantaneous surface temperature of a constant volume combustion chamber was measured by this probe and the heat flux was obtained through Fourier analysis. In order to thoroughly understand the characteristics of combustion, the authors measured the wall temperature of the combustion chamber and computed heat flux through a cylinder wall while varying the protrusion height of the probe. For achieving the above goals, a instantaneous temperature probe was developed, thereby making possible the analysis of the instantaneous temperature of wall surface and the detection of unsteady heat flux in the constant volume combustion chamber.

In this paper, we find a method to improve ignitability using methanol which is prospective as an alternative fuel. The constant volume combuster is divided into main chamber and sub-cham¬ber. These two chambers are linked by an adapter which is shaped like a cup. We also compare CDI to HIS that is revised in our laboratory for making a scrutiny into the effects of ignition char¬acteristics. Besides, we analyze a flame propagation process in the main and sub-chamber through taking pictures 10, 000 frames per second by high speed camera at the state being fabricated quartz glass aside main and sub-chamber.
