전산화단층촬영장비 테이블로 인한 화질 저하의 경감을 위하여 개발한 에어 매트리스(Air mattress)의 유용성을 평가하고자 하였다. 5, 10 cm 두께의 에어 매트리스(Air mattress)를 개발하여 적용 유무와 두께에 따른 AAPM 팬텀을 스캔한 영상을 통하여 화질을 측정하였으며 일원배치 분산분석으로 통계적 유의성을 확인하였다. AAPM 팬텀을 표준 방식으로 스캔한 영상과 비교했을 때 에어 매트리스를 적용한 영상은 차이가 나타나지 않았으나, 에어 매트리스를 적용하지 않았을 때의 영상은 CT Number와 균일도가 낮아지고 노이즈가 높게 나타났으며 공간분해능이 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다. 개발된 에어 매트리스는 진단 영상에 아무런 해가 없을 뿐만 아니라, 화질을 높이는 데에 매우 효과적이며 최신, 고가 장비에 적용되는 기술을 이용하지 않고도 기존의 장비에 단순히 에어 매트리스를 적용함으로써 화질을 증가시킬 수 있다.

We performed 3 dimensional numerical study on the improvement of the airflow deflection in the cleanroom of Class 1000, which is presently operated for the manufacturing process in Korea. The Deflection angle and the non-uniformity were investigated to analyze the airflow characteristics and the performance of cleanroom with variations of the cleanroom occupancy state, the filters' arrangement, and the floor return air system. From the numerical results, we found out that the airflow pattern of the cleanroom is more unidirectional and stable in the condition of at-rest than in the condition of as~built. It is due to that the equipments installed in the cleanroom play a role like partitions, which prevent the airflow from inclining toward the recirculation air duct. And it is needed to arrange the filter units parallel to the equipments array without a gap between them for maintaining the unidirectional airflow pattern. Finally, we knew that it is very important to install the partition like the eyelid above the equipment to keep the unidirectional airflow around the equipments and remove the contaminants quickly.

When we conduct environmental impact assessment, main contents consist of summary, project outline, environmental conditions, environmental impacts due to the project, mitigation devices, and alternative measures of harmful impact on environment. In this Paper, to understand how they really conduct air quality impact assessment and prediction and examine their effectiveness, we considered the provisions and actual case of environmental impact assessment in Korea with that in Japan. As a result, we propose a method of improving air quality impact assessment and Prediction, such as reflection of the result in environmental impact assessment, detailed assessment focused on relatively important environmental impact elements, field measurement investigation over four season and seven sucessive days, the uniformity of units, the proper model development to predict environmental concentration and a biennial environmental impact assessment for ex post management.

To achieve the unidirectional airflow in a cleanroom, we need to predict accurately the static pressure losses at the lower plenum and to control properly the opening pressure ratio of access floor panels based on these pressure losses. At first, the present study proposed a correlation to predict the velocity distribution at the lower plenum, because the accuracy to predict pressure losses at the lower plenum depends on how to calculate the velocity correctly against the inner structures at the lower plenum. In the second place, this study proposed correlations which considered the effect of inner structures such as columns, ducts and equipments at the lower plenum on pressure losses. In order to test the accuracy of these correlations, we compared air flow patterns before regulating the opening ratio of access floor with those after regulating. Results after regulating the opening ratio of access floor show good unidirectional uniform airflow pattern. So the present method can be used as an important tool to control the air flow in a cleanroom.

A cell-entrapment technique using compressed air was applied to Bifidobacterium longum KCTC 3128 for the improvement of bifidobacteria viability. The main cell-entrapment matrix used was alginate, and viability improvement of the B. longum entrapped in alginate lattices was monitored along with the effects of other additional biopolymers. A prerequisite for acquiring consistent results was the uniformity of bead size and cell distribution which was achieved by using compressed air and mixing the cell suspension with sterilized alginate powder, respectively. The viability losses of the B. longum entrapped in alginate beads in the presence of three different substances logarithmically increased in relation to the reaction time, and proportionately decreased with an increased alginate concentration and bead diameter. The strongest improvement in B. longum viability was exhibited with a bead containing 3％ alginate and 0.15％ xanthan gum.

A numerical study is peformed to investigate the effect of circumferential velocity generated by the guide vane on the nozzle flow of a jet fan, s a way of increasing the penetration force of jet fan with nozzle of 175mm diameter. For the validation of numerical results. the velocity is measured by a 5-hole pitot tube and flow visualization is conducted by the tuft method. Under the inlet condition that the maximum circumferential velocity in the stator outlet of the present jet fan is 1.8m/s, the axial velocity in the nozzle outlet has the feature that the velocity at the axis is low and the velocity near the wall high. Therefore, to increase the throw length of the jet fan, the configuration of the fairing and nozzle needs to be developed and the precise revise of the stator angle is required, In addition, the bigger the circumferential velocity, the smaller the axial velocity at the axis and the bigger non-uniformity of the flow distribution.

Non-contact transportation of the large-sized glass plate using air-cushion is considered for sputtering system of LCD panel. The Argon gas from second gas injection holes is injected to levitate and transport the glass plate. Low maximum pressure and uniform pressure distribution on the bottom surface of the glass plate must be maintained for stable levitation and transportation of the glass plate. Therefore, the analysis of fluid flow between the glass plate and the air-pad is numerically performed for varying space between the injection holes in this study. The pressure uniformity on the bottom surface of the glass plate is evaluated for overall glass plate. The distance between the injection holes must be designed below 90 mm for obtaining the low maximum pressure and uniform pressure distribution.

The local heat/mass transfer coefficients for arrays of impinging circular air jets on a plane surface are determined by means of the naphthalene sublimation method. Spent fluid makes a crossflow in the confined space. The crossflow reduces heat/mass transfer at the small gap distance between the jet plate and impingement surface because of reentrainment of the spent fluid. The present study suggests a new exhaust system having effusion holes in the impinging jet plate. The spent air flow out after impingement just through effusion holes located in the upper plate. This system increases heat/mass transfer coefficients and uniformity for small gap distances$(H/d{\leq}2)$

An experimental study is performed on the flow characteristics of a swirl-jet diffuser for factory ventilation. Swirl number ranges from 0(nonswirl jet) to 0.6 when the angle of swirl vane is 60 degree. As swirl becomes strong, the maximum velocity in the plane perpendicular to jet axis decreases fast and the uniformity of velocity becomes good, particularly in the ventilated area. The similarity in velocity profiles has been found for axial velocity from even when swirl number equals 0.6. The flow characteristics of the swirl-jet which has the swirl number of 0.6 is thought to be the best among these three swirl numbers for factory ventilation. However, the pressure drop in the diffuser increases as the swirl becomes strong. This should be considered in the design of the total ventilation system including a duct system.

Precise coating weight control is very important issue on quality and minimizing operating costs on continuous galvanizing line. These days, many steel making companies are having a new understanding of cost importance by rise raw material prices and customer's requirement for cost reduction. Dongbu steel also meets these situations and decided to develop the technologies. Dongbu Steel developed Integrated coating weight control system jointly with Objective Control Ltd. and installed 2CGL and 4CGL. Several technological functions were developed and realized to achieve true hands-off operation and maximum cost benefit by combining model-based preset and dynamic prediction models. We also installed it on 1 CGL on April, 2008. This paper will present the interface, functions and application result of the integrated coating weight control system including Zn saving and coating weight uniformity.
