Chloride ions in the alloy powder used as flux in Flux Cored Arc Welding (FCAW) can cause pores on the bead surface of the welding metal to cause defects, or chloride remaining in the alloy powder can cause corrosion of the metal. Combustion-ion chromatography is mainly used to quantify the chloride ions in alloy powder, but there is a limitation in that the equipment is expensive and requires a high degree of expertise. Therefore, this study aims to find an easy and accurate quantification method in the field by comparing combustion-ion chromatography (C-IC), which is mainly used for chloride ion quantification of alloy powder, X-ray fluorescence analysis (XRF), and potentiometric titration. In this article, magnesium-aluminum alloy powder is applied to the quantification of chloride ions because it is most commonly used as flux. This study confirmed that potentiometric titration can be applied to the quantification of chloride ions in the alloy powder in the industry field.

KSLV-II ullage motor is a type of the separation motor of Korea Space Launch Vehicle. Simultaneously operates with the retro Motor to perform the stage separation. The internal ballistics design, application of propellant composition, and the design of the combustion chamber and the canted nozzle were performed in accordance with the target performance of the ullage motor. Ti-6Al-4V alloy was applied to the combustion as material of chamber and nozzle. The heat resistant material of the nozzle was selected to ensure the heat resistance of the propellant containing a large amount of aluminum. And the combustion performance of the ullage motor satisfying the KSLV-II requirements was secured by performing the ground combustion test.

The mass loss rate and heat release rate of puzzle mats were analysed using variable external irradiation level. Five samples of puzzle mat were tested in this study : Type A, B, C, D and E. Type A, B and C are all general grades whereas Type D and E are both Flame retardant grades. Incident heat fluxs of $25kW/m^2$, $35kW/m^2$, $50kW/m^2$ and $70kW/m^2$ were selected for these experiments. All samples were tested in the horizontal orientation and were wrapped in a single layer of aluminum foil. Each sample was nominally 20mm thick and 100mm square. The combustion heat and mass loss rate were carried out from Oxygen bomb calorimeter and mass loss calorimeter according to ISO 5660-1 respectively. Heat release rates were calculated using the equation ${\dot{Q}}=A_f{\dot{m}}"_X{\Delta}H_c=0.75A_f{\dot{m}}"{\Delta}H_c$. where $A_f$ is the horizontal burning area of the sample, $\dot{m}"$ is mass loss rate per unit area, ${\Delta}H_c$ is complete heat of combustion and 0.75 is combustion efficiency.

A simplified analytical study for micro-sized single metal particle combustion in air was conducted in the present study. The metal particle combustion consists of two distinct reaction regimes, ignition and quasi-steady burning, and the thermo-fluidic phenomena in each stage are formulated by virtue of the conservation and transport equations. When particle temperature reaches to 1200 K, ended an ignition stage and was converted at quasi-steady combustion stage. Effects of Initial particle size, convection, ambient pressure and temperature are examined and addressed with validation.

고체추진제의 첨가제 또는 연료로써 주로 사용되는 알루미늄 단일 입자 연소시험 장비를 제작하고 연소 실험을 수행하였다. 산화 알루미늄으로 피복된 금속입자는 약 30~100 ${\mu}m$의 크기를 사용하였다. 단일 입자는 Electrodynamic Balance (EDB) 방법에 의해 공중 부양된 상태로, 중력에 의한 영향이 배제되어 금속입자 고정용 또는 측정용 장치들의 접촉에 의한 열손실을 제거시켜 실험 정확도를 높였다. Standard Hyperbolic Electrodynamic Levitator (SHEL) 내에서 부양된 입자에 $CO_2$ 레이저를 사용하여 점화시킨 후, 입자로부터 방사되는 열복사를 이용한 two wavelength pyrometry를 적용하여 알루미늄 입자 크기에 따른 연소시간, 평균 화염온도, 점화온도, 점화시간을 획득하였으며, 단일 알루미늄 입자의 점화-연소특성을 평가하였다.

This study compared the fire safety standards for windows of Korea, the U.S. and Japan to prevent fire expansion through exterior wall openings, and conducted experiments using PVC and aluminum window frames, which are widely used in Korea.The experiment is KS F 2845 which combines frames of the same thickness and area with single-window form and 1 hour fire resistance glass with 8T thickness. Experiments showed that the PVC window was about 9 minutes and the aluminum window was about 26 minutes. However, in Korea, there are no test standards for windows installed at the opening of the exterior wall. In addition, fire safety standards for windows shall be established along with the designation of fire prevention zones.

The development of metal plasma generated by high laser irradiance and its effect on the surrounding air using shadowgraph images after laser pulse termination are studied; hence the formation of laser supported detonation and combustion processes has been investigated. The core of the paper is in detecting chemical reaction using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) between ablated aluminum plasma and oxygen from air by inducing high power laser pulse (>1000 mJ/pulse) and conduct a quantitative comparison of chemically reactive laser initiated waves with the classical detonation of exploding aluminum (dust) cloud in air. This study may suggest a new approach of initiating detonation from metal sample in its bulk form without the need of mixing nano-particles with oxygen for initiation.

There are many advantages in applying gel propellant to a gel propulsion system. These include higher performances, the energy management of liquid propulsion system, reliable storability and low leakage characteristics. Additionally, gel propulsion system are preferable to the high density impulse of propulsion system. Also, when compared to liquid propellants, the gel propellants acquire greater heat energy. Gel propellants achieve a high specific impulse when metal particles with aluminum and boron are added. With respect to atomization, an inactive process occurs due to the variable viscosity of the metal particles and gelling agents. To improve the defect of atomization and combustion characteristics of gel propellant, a variety of issues related to spray and combustion is introduced here.

For this study, Yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) particles doped $Eu^{3+}$ ions were prepared via the combustion process using the 1:1 ratio of metal ions to reagents. The characteristics of the synthesized nano powder were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), and photoluminescence (PL). The various YAG peaks, with the (420) main peak, appeared at all sintering temperature XRD patterns. The YAG phase crystallized with results that are in good agreement with the JCPDS diffraction file 33-0040. The SEM image showed that the resulting YAG:Eu powders had larger sizes with the increse in the sintering temperature. The grain size was about 50nm at $1000^{\circ}C$. The PL intensity of $Eu^{3+}$ has the line peaks of 598, 610, 632nm and has main peak at 591nm.
