An overview is given on the work of the Laboratory of Nuclear Energy Systems at ETH, Zurich (ETHZ) and of the Laboratory of Thermal Hydraulics at Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI), Switzerland on tight-lattice bundles. Two-phase flow in subchannels of a tight triangular lattice was studied experimentally and by computational fluid dynamics simulations. Two adiabatic facilities were used: (1) a vertical channel modeling a pair of neighboring sub-channels; and (2) an arrangement of four subchannels with one subchannel in the center. The first geometry was equipped with two electrical film sensors placed on opposing rod surfaces forming the subchannel gap. They recorded 2D liquid film thickness distributions on a domain of $16{\times}64$ measuring points each, with a time resolution of 10 kHz. In the bubbly and slug flow regime, information on the bubble size, shape, and velocity and the residual liquid film thickness underneath the bubbles were obtained. The second channel was investigated using cold neutron tomography, which allowed the measurement of average liquid film profiles showing the effect of spacer grids with vanes. The results were reproduced by large eddy simulation + volume of fluid. In the outlook, a novel nonadiabatic subchannel experiment is introduced that can be driven to steady-state dryout. A refrigerant is heated by a heavy water circuit, which allows the application of cold neutron tomography.

We present preliminary results of the submillimeter continuum observations of 14 Planck Galactic Cold Clumps (PGCCs), located in the ${\lambda}$ Orionis Complex. This region is the nearest large HII region, which is an ideal site for a study of the stellar feedback to its surroundings. We observed 14 PGCCs with JCMT/SCUBA-2 and used J=1-0 transitions of CO isotopologues from the PMO mapping observation. Several sub-clumps toward three PGCCs were detected at $850{\mu}m$. In order to examine whether these clumps can be candidates for pre-stellar cores, we compared each clump mass calculated from the $850{\mu}m$ continuum map to its Virial mass and Jeans mass calculated from the $^{12}CO$ and $C^{18}O$ (1-0) spectra, respectively. All clumps have masses smaller than their Virial and Jeans masses, indicating that none of them are gravitational bound and thus in the pre-stellar core stage. Also, the CO depletion factor, which has been derived from the dust continuum and the $C^{18}O$(1-0) line and can be an indicator of core evolution, toward the clumps is in the range of 1 to 5, suggesting that they are not very evolved dense pre-stellar cores. In addition, within individual PGCCs, we found clear gradients of velocity (${\sim}1km\;s^{-1}\;pc^{-1}$) and temperature (${\sim}10K\;pc^{-1}$) in the $^{13}CO$ (1-0) first moment map and the $^{12}CO$(1-0) excitation temperature map, respectively. This can be attributed to the compression and external heating by the HII region, which may prevent clumps from forming gravitationally bound structures and eventually disperse clumps. These results could be a hint about the negative effect of stellar feedback on core formation.

Hydrographic data taken at stations spaced 8-16 nautical miles in the Cheju Strait and the southeastern part of the Yellow Sea in June 1980 and August 1981 show for the first time that oceanic water of high temperature and high salinity exists within 20 km from the northern and western coast of Cheju-Do. It is confirmed that the low salinity trough in the sea around Cheju-Do originates from the river plume on the Yantze Bank. The salinity trough separates the high temperature and high salinity water around Cheju-Do from the surface water of the Yellow Sea and below the seasonal thermocline this distance water meets the Yellow Sea Cold Water forming a thermal front. The Yellow Sea Cold Water seems to spread southward along the Yantze Bank centered at the isobath of 70 m. Its characteristics also appear in the northern part of the Cheju Strait. these complex structures contradict the yellow Sea Warm current suggested by Uda 1934), which is supposed to flow northward into the Yellow Sea along the western coast of Korea. Our data show that dense hydrographic surveys in space and time are prerequisite to understand the circulation around Cheju-Do.

Egg-forming and preservation methods for the indoor-rearing system of the emma field cricket, Teleogryllus emma, were investigated. The oviposition preference experiment on different mats, soil(natural oviposition mat) and $oasis^{\circledR}$(artificial oviposition mat), showed that T. emma preferred to oviposit on the $oasis^{\circledR}$. On the other hand, $oasis^{\circledR}$ had more inactive number of eggs laid per female and hatchability than another. However, the number of eggs laid per female and hatchability within 50 days after emergence were better than soil. The experiment on the hatching of the eggs showed that eggs could be stocked at $10^{\circ}C$ for 40 days with 14 day pre-period after laying, representing $62.1\%$ hatchability, when considering generation shortening. On the other hand, When it had been kept in cold storage for 90 days at $7.5^{\circ}C$ with 14 day pre-period after laying it, appeared to be the most suitable for long period-storage method by hatchability $65.1\%$.

The Cretaceous Gajok gold-silver deposit within porphyry granite is located nearby the Cretaceous Pungam basin at the northeastern area in Republic of Korea. The Gajok gold-silver deposit is distinctively composed of a multiple-complex hydrothermal veins with comb, crustiform chalcedony quartz and vug textures, implying it was formed relatively shallower depth. The hypogene open-space filling veins could be divided into 5 paragenetic sequences, increasing tendency of Ag-rich electrum and Ag-phases with increasing paragenetic time. Electrum with high gold contents (${\sim}50$ atomic % Au) as well as sphalerite with high FeS contents (${\sim}6$ mole % FeS) are representative ore minerals in the middle stage. The late stage is characterized by silver-phase such like native silver and/or argentite, coexisting with Ag-rich electrum ($10{\sim}30$ atomic % Au) and Fe-poor sphalerite (< 1 mole % FeS). The ore-forming fluids evolution started at relatively high temperature and salinity (${\sim}360^{\circ}C$, ${\sim}7\;wt.%$ eq. NaCl) and were evolved by dilution and mixing mechanisms on the basis of fluid inclusion study. The gold-silver mineralization proceeded from ore-forming fluids containing greater amounts of less-evolved meteoric waters(${\delta}^{18}O$; $-0.6{\sim}-6.7\;%o$). These results imply that gold-silver mineralization of the Cretaceous Gaiok deposit formed at shallow-crustal level and could be categorized into low-sulfidation epithermal type, related to Cretaceous igneous activity.

The potential of applying cold plasma (CP) treatments to improve microbiological safety of powdered products has been investigated using infant milk powder (IMP) and onion powder (OP). Among the different kinds of CP-forming gases, He-$O_2$ (99.8:0.2) gas mixture and He gas were most effective in reducing the number of Cronobacter sakazakii in IMP and Bacillus cereus spores in OP, respectively. C. sakazakii counts in IMP decreased by $0.9{\pm}0.1{\log}\;CFU/g$ after CP treatment, and the extent of C. sakazakii inhibition increased in a time-dependent manner. CP treatment at 900 W for 20 min reduced the number of B. cereus spores by ~0.4 log spores/g. Treatments that integrated CP with microwave (MW-CP treatment) as well as those that integrated CP with heat and microwave (H-MW-CP treatment) resulted in a 90% reduction in the number of spores in OP. Thus, CP treatments demonstrated potential for decontaminating foodborne pathogens from powdered products, in combination with heat for improved effect.

The physical and chemical properties of prestellar cores, especially massive ones, are still far from being well understood due to the lack of a large sample. The low dust temperature (< 14 K) of Planck cold clumps makes them promising candidates for prestellar objects or for sources at the very initial stages of protostellar collapse. We have been conducting a series of observations toward Planck cold clumps (PCCs) with ground-based radio telescopes. In general, when compared with other star forming samples (e.g. infrared dark clouds), PCCs are more quiescent, suggesting that most of them may be in the earliest phase of star formation. However, some PCCs are associated with protostars and molecular outflows, indicating that not all PCCs are in a prestellar phase. We have identified hundreds of starless dense clumps from a mapping survey with the Purple Mountain Observatory (PMO) 13.7-m telescope. Follow-up observations suggest that these dense clumps are ideal targets to search for prestellar objects.

Spinning process is generally used for manufacturing axisymmetrical, thin-walled thickness and hollow circular cross-section parts. Traditional spinning technology is classified to conventional spinning and power spinning(shear spinning and flow forming). Literature surveys of spinning application for regenerative cooling chamber and divergent nozzle of liquid propellent rocket thrust chamber have been conducted. Most spinning technology has been used mandel for manufacturing chamber and nozzle. Recently, hot spinning has been used much compared to traditional cold spinning.
