A simplified thermal analysis method to evaluate the maximum temperature of the CANDU 37-element fuel bundle within a fuel basket in a given spent fuel dry storage canister has been presented along with the results of sample analyses performed to examine the parametric effects of the ambient conditions on the maximum fuel temperature within a canister. To solve the multi-dimensional heat transfer problem of the complex geometry of rod bundles within a canister where three modes of heat transfer are superimposed, the CANDU spent fuel bundles stored in the dry storage canister are first replaced by equivalent concentric fuel cylinders. The simplified axi-symmetric two-dimensional multi-mode heat transfer problem of the equivalent fuel cylinders is then analyzed with an existing computer code, HEATING5, using additional input data and heat transfer correlations. A comparison between the predicted temperature profile and the mock-up test results shows that the agreement is quite satisfactory.

In this paper, removal of diesel hydrocarbons (C$_{10}$-C$_{22}$) for dry and moist soil was investigated so that microwave-enhanced soil vapor extraction(SVE) reduced soil treatment time and raised remediation efficiency. Kinetic constants of diesel hydrocarbons with microwave energy were 7 times on dry soil and 1580 times on moist soil as much as those of SVE process without microwave energy. The diesel removals were 67.7～78.4% for $C_{10}$ and $C_{12}$, and 0～18.5% for $C_{14}$～C$_{22}$ for dry and moist soil with SVE process only. On the other hand, dry soil with microwave-enhanced SVE process showed 89.3～99.4% removal for $C_{10}$ and $C_{12}$ and 35.6～67.0% for hydrocarbons over $C_{14}$. All hydrocarbons(C$_{10}$～C$_{22}$) studied were significantly removed (93.6～99.8%) for moist soil with microwave-enhanced SVE process. Almost all diesel hydrocarbons were usually considered as semi-volatile compounds(SVOCs). Microwave-enhanced SVE process might have a great potential for remediation of soils contaminated with SVOCs.OCs.

This study explored the effects of heating temperature and laminae thicknesses on the time required to heat the center of air-dried Paulownia tomentosa, Pinus sp., Abies sp., and Larix sp. laminae to $56^{\circ}C$, which is a minimum core temperature of wood packaging materials defined by ISPM 15 standard, and maintain for 30 minutes in dry heat treatment schedule. Heating times were different among wood species and were Pinus sp. ${\geq}$ Abies sp. > Paulownia tomentosa > Larix sp. in decreasing order. The differences in heating times of some species were significantly different statistically, but were not different enough in practical terms to warrant heating four species separately. Heating times decreased as heating temperature increased and followed approximately power-function relationship. Also, heating times increased linearly with increasing laminae thickness. These relationships make it possible to calculate intermediate heating times relative to experimentally observed heating times. The results of this study will serve as a guideline for heat sterilization of Chinese laminae species to meet heat treatment requirements for protection against invasive pests.

In order to set the outdoor weather conditions to be applied to the design standard of the greenhouse heating and cooling system, outdoor air temperature and heating degree-hour for heating design, dry bulb temperature, wet bulb temperature and solar irradiance for cooling design were analyzed and presented. For every region in Korea, we used thirty years from 1981 to 2010 hourly weather data for analysis, which is the current standard of climatological normal provided by KMA. Since the use of standard weather data is limited, design weather conditions were obtained using the entire weather data for 30 years, and the average value of the entire data period was presented as a design standard. The design weather data with exceedance probability of 1, 2.5, and 5% were analyzed by the TAC method, and we presented the distribution map with exceedance probability of 1% for heating and 2.5% for cooling which are recommended by design standards. The changes of maximum heating load, seasonal heating load and maximum cooling load were examined by regions, exceedance probabilities, and setpoint temperatures. The proposed outdoor design conditions can be used not only directly for the greenhouse heating and cooling design, but also for the reinforcement of heating and cooling facilities and the establishment of energy saving measures. Recently, due to the climate change, sweltering heat in summer and abnormal temperature in winter are occurring frequently, so we need to analyze weather data periodically and revise the design standard at least every 10 years cycle.

If soybeans are presoaked, two minutes heating at $100^{\circ}C$ is sufficient to inhibit production of objectionable green beany flavors, with dry beans, three minutes heating at $100^{\circ}C$ accomplishes the same inhibition, These brief heat treatments are not sufficient to inactivate growth inhibition factors as determined by chick feeding trials. The inhibition of off flavor coincides with loss of lipoxygenase activity, and the inhibition is thought to be due to lipoxygenase inactivation.

The applications of the high density plasma sources to the etching in semiconductor fabrication process are actively studied because of the more strict requirement from the dry etching process due to shrinking down of the critical dimension. But in the oxide etching with the high density plasma sources, abundant fluorine atoms released from the flurocarbon feed gas make it difficult to get the highly selective $SiO_2/Si$ etching. In this study, to improve the $SiO_2/Si$ etch selectivity through the control of the radical loss channels, we propose the wall heating , one of methods of controlling loss mechanisms. With appearance mass spectroscopy(AMS) and actinometric optical emission spectroscopy(OES), the increase of both radicals impinging on the substrate and existing in bulk plasma, and the decrease of the fluorine atom with wall temperature are observed. As a result, a 40% improvement of the selectivity was achieved for the carbon rich feed gas.

This research aims to secure fundamental data for the development offire-retardant wood by soaking dried wood in fire-retardant liquid. To dry wood, optimal drying conditions for softwood usually used as structural material and hardwood usually used as finishing or furniture material were derived by varying the microwave outputs and heating times of microwave wood drying equipment. The research foundthat each specimen needs 8 to 15 minutes of heating time depending on water content and output. For softwood, fire-retardant liquid equivalent to about 10 percent of the total mass of the specimen infiltrated into the dried wood, of which the water content was reduced to 5~6 percent.

Environmental concerns arising from synthetic herbicides in plant management systems have led to an interest in plant-derived compounds as natural herbicides. Inhibitory effects of compounds extracted with 50% methanol from corn (Zea mays L.) and pine (Pinus densiflora L.) were evaluated on large crabgrass (Digitaria sanguinalis (L.) Scop.), annual bluegrass Poa annua L.), radish (Raphanus sativus L.), and perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) The aqueous extracts inhibited seed germination and had postemergence activity on the four species. The stability of biological activity of corn grain, stover, and root extracts was not affected by heating to $135^{\circ}C$ or freezing/thawing treatments when applied at levels above 0.25kg m(sup)-2 based on dry weights of powders before extraction. Heating reduced the activity of pine litter and bark extracts at all levels except the highest application level but had little effect on pine needle extracts.

Characteristics of the direct thermal nitrided films by RF induction heating has been studied. The nitrided films on Si were prepared at 1000-1200\ulcorner in ammonia gas ambient. The nitrided films were analyzed by ellipsometry an Auger electron spectroscopy. I-V and C-V characteristics of MIS capacitors fabricated using nitrided film were investicated. The nitrided films were grown up mostly within initial thirty minutes and no significant growth was observed thereafter. Etch rates of films were about 1\ulcornermin in diluted HF (HF:H2O= 1:50). The nitrided films were resistant to dry and wet oxidations at temperatures below 1000\ulcorner and 900\ulcorner, respectively.

The diffusion cell method is the main technique employed for the in vitro diffusion test of transdermal drug delivery preparations. Most existing transdermal diffusion devices use a water bath heating structure and direct current motor magnetic stirrer. However, these devices are confronted with problems, such as large volume, incompatible vertical and horizontal diffusion cells, few diffusion cell sets, and poor reliability. To overcome these deficiencies, the system adopts a dry heating method and uses a rotating magnetic field generated by the electromagnetic stirrer to drive the magnetic stirrer. Accordingly, the resulting device is characterized by a simple structure and small volume, convenient operation, compatible vertical and horizontal diffusion cells, and numerous diffusion cell sets. The reliability and practicability of the system is verified by the in vitro percutaneous permeability test of the bisoprolol patch.
