A general description of sprinkler activation time in compartment-fire-generated smoke layers is made. For calculation of the time hot layer temperature is obtained from two-layer zonal model and time constant of sprinkler is measured. Upper-layer thickness at the instant of sprinkler activation is also presented with changes of opening area. The output of the present study provide inputs for the interaction modeling of sprinkler spray and compartment fire environment, which simulates fire suppression phenomena. Futhermore, experiments are performed in mock-up with gasoline pool fire in order to evaluate the reliability of the model.

In a compartment fire, convective heat transfer dominates spread of the fire and smoke movement before flash-over occurs, and natural convection is very important in particular when there are no openings. The finite volume method with SIMPLE algorithm was applied to a square cavity similar to a compartment without an opening. The objectives of this study are to evaluate the method and to simulate natural convection from a hot body in the cavity. The results without the hot body showed an excellent agreement with those of previous studies. Streamlines, isotherms and Nusselt numbers were computed for different Rayleigh numbers.

For a panel contribution of the passenger vehicle compartment, a model was created for acoustic analysis of the passenger vehicle compartment and through the acoustic normal modal analysis, frequencies and mode shapes of the resonance modes were calculated. Also, the contribution analysis of each panel was executed using acoustic reciprocal theorem, and through this analysis, normalized responses at the particular point indicate the relative contribution of each panel for generating noise and vibration

The work presents sensitivity and uncertainty analysis of 2-compartment model for the evaluation of indoor radon pollution in a house. Effort on the development of such model is directed towards the prediction of the generation and transfer of radon in indoor air released from groundwater. The model is used to estimate a quantitative daily human exposure through inhalation of such radon based on exposure scenarios. However, prediction from the model has uncertainty propagated from uncertainties in model parameters. In order to assess how model predictions are affected by the uncertainties of model inputs, the study performs a quantitative uncertainty analysis in conjunction with the developed model. An importance analysis is performed to rank input parameters with respect to their contribution to model prediction based on the uncertainty analysis. The results obtained from this study would be used to the evaluation of human risk by inhalation associated with the indoor pollution by radon released from groundwater.

Vehicle's airtight integrity is a very important factor that greatly affects passenger's habitability. However, when a door is closed, the pressure in the passenger compartment increases due to the vehicle's airtight integrity. That pressurizes the eardrums of the passenger, and makes passenger unpleasant. Thus, in this study, the configurations of air ventilation hasve been investigated to reduce pressure in the passenger compartment. Truck cab is utilized to measure the pressure in the passenger compartment. Various kinds of air ventilations are considered to find out optimized pressure in truck cab when a door is closed.

It is an emergency which is in the process of existing using of passenger compartment equipment of the rolling stock to sprout and interphone wiring and by the fire sensor which perceives the smoke in the use passenger car ceiling the receiver which is to driver's cabin it leads and the fire occurrence alarm voice sprouts carried on shoulder but, by no. of the car indication ramp it divides the corresponding vehicle and from inside the passenger compartment of the rolling stock from fire occurrence hour driver's cabin corresponding passenger no. of the car. It is accurate and in order it will be able to perceive. It will be able to confront initially quickly with the technique which it composes. It is regarding the fire safety surveillance system it will be able to embody at the expense which is cheap in order to use existing wiring.

흰쥐 간정맥 및 간문맥에 PE10 튜브를 마취하에 이식시킨 후 5일째부터 고형사료와 10% creatine을 함유한 고형사료를 5일 동안 섭식 시켜 급속 냉동 시켰다. 냉동시킨 흰쥐 간장, 뇌 및 근육에서 creatine을 포함한 간장 metabolites을 조사하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 또한 간장세포내의 water compartment의 변화를 동시에 실시 하였다. Creatine을 섭식시킨 실험군은 정상 대조군과 비교하여 섭식에 의한 간세포내의 water compartment 에 벼노하를 주지 않았고 간장 세포내의 creatine농도에 있어서는 약 43배 이상 세포내 증가를 유도하였으며, 이는 세포외 및 세포내의 creatine의 gradient에 의해 영향을 받고 있음을 알 수가 있었고, 또한 동시에 뇌, 근육 등에서는 섭식에 의해 유의성 있는 농도 변화는 보이지 않았다. 이는 세포 외액속에 함유된 creatine 이 여러 수송기전에 의하여 간세포내로 흡착이 이루어진 것을 알 수 있었으나, 간세포 분리 시험법에로 Creatine Kinase 효소 활성도를 측정한 결과 non-parenchymal hepatocytes에서만 거의 100% 효소 활성도가 있음을 증명 하였다.

We have derived the general transfer equation for governing the continuity, energy transfer, mass and momentum transfer, and turbulent energy dissipation rate within the fire compartment which has the 800t fire source at the center of the floor. The governing transfer equations have been descretized using the finite volume approach and numerically experimented under the SIMPLE algorithm. In order for the SIMPLE algorithm approach to be physically reliable, the test results are compared with those of Morita's SOR Method using Conjugate Residual Method and found to be close to physical values though the computational convergence time still remains to be upgraded. The treatment of source terms in the system of finite difference equations has been critical in order to converge the governing equations within the appropriate time steps. The criteria of convergence allowance for the whole domain have been checked and the sudden change of the non-linear effects from the source term have been avoided. The criteria has been allowed to be for 5$\times$10$^{-5}$ .

For the purpose of controlling the coupling between the car body panels and passenger compartment, experimental investigation of an acoustic cavity with an air gap is carried out to reveal how the air gap influences the acoustic modal characteristics of the cavity. The acoustic modal characteristics of the cavity is closely related with the booming noise. The experimental results show that a very small air gap can change the acoustic modal characteristics of the cavity and, as a result, the air gap can be an important factor in controlling the booming noise for comfortable and safe passenger compartment.

In this parer, a protocol system is developed, which automates the sequential procedure that transforms the information of compartment generated by SIKOB, the calculation program of ship design, to the STEP format which is used as the input data of next level of ship design. The schemata representing hull form and compartment are constructed. The STEP physical files are made by instancing these schemata using the results of SIKOB. They are transmitted to the CAD system and then worked on the CAD system. It means that they could be used as the data of next level of ship design.
