This study was investigated the quality characteristics of sponge cakes which were prepared b replacing 30% of flour with raw starch and resistant starches, such as, 4 cycled autoclaved-cooled RS 3 maize starch(RS 3), cross-linked RS 4 maize starch (RS 4) was superior to control cake( 100% flour cake). Addition of starches except RS 3 made crust and crumb color lighter and decreased hardness. Especially, cake containing RS 4 had the softest texture. For the adhesiveness and cohesiveness, cake containing RS 4 showed the least changes during 5 storage days. In DSC measurement, cakes containing RS 4 and ARS 4 showed high enthalpy in despite of low hardness. Sensory evaluation showed that cakes containing RS 4 and ARS 4 were significantly moist and soft compared to others. Overall acceptability of cakes containing starch, RS 4 and ARS 4 were evaluated excellent. Therefore, it can be suggested that RS 4 and ARS 4 can be added to the sponge cake for the quality improvement and functional element.

The physicochemical properties of brown rice flours produced under different drying and milling conditions were investigated. Moisture contents of hot-air dried, microwave dried and zet-milled brown rice flours (BrWZH) were 10.7%,13.7% and 8.0%-8.6%, respectively. Water absorption indices (WAI) and water soluble indices (WSI) of roll-milled brown rice flours (BrWRH) were lower (0.40-0.59 g/g; 0.7-3.0%) than those of zet-milled brown rice flours (0.58-0.79 g/g; 4.0-7.3%). Zet-milled brown rice flours had higher Hunter L values and more damaged starch (94.1-96.8; 28.2%) compared to roll-milled brown rice flours (91.3-91.9: 15.5%). The percentage of damaged starch and L values of brown rice flours increased as particle size of brown rice flours decreased. Roll-milled polished rice flour (Control) had the highest L value and lowest amount of damaged starch (97.1; 8.2%). Control, BrWRH, BrWZH, and ultrafine brown rice flour (HBrZMU) had peak viscosity values of 321, 255, 221, and 162 RVU, respectively and trough viscosity values of 217, 185, 175, and 113 RVU, respectively. Peak and trough viscosity (Rapid Visco Analyzer; RVA) properties of rice floors decreased as the particle size of rice flours decreased. HBrZMU demonstrated a higher onset temperature $(61.1^{\circ}C)$ compared to control $(54.8^{\circ}C)$ by differential scanning calorimetric (DSC). Crystal melting enthalpy $({\Delta}H)$ of control and brown rice flours were 10.4 J/g and 6.1-8.7 J/g, respectively. Results of this study suggested that physicochemical properties of brown rice flours were closely related to their particle size.

In this study, previously reported surplus solar energy-related study result and current status of fan coil unit (FCU) for cooling and heating installed in the current sites were briefly examined and then a method to determine the number of FCUs required to recover surplus solar energy was schematically proposed to provide basic data for researchers and technical engineers in this field. The maximum, mean, and minimum outside temperatures during the experiment period were about $28.2^{\circ}C$, $4.4^{\circ}C$, and $-11.5^{\circ}C$, respectively. The horizontal surface solar radiation level outside the greenhouse was in a range of $0.8-20.5MJ{\cdot}m^{-2}$ and mean and total solar radiation were $10.8MJ{\cdot}m^{-2}$ and $1,187.5MJ{\cdot}m^{-2}$. The mean temperature and relative humidity in the greenhouse during the daytime were in a range of 18.8-45.5 and 53.5-77.5%. The total surplus solar energy recovered from the greenhouse during the experiment period was approximately 6,613.4MJ, which could supplement about 6.7% of the total heating energy 98,600.2 MJ. In addition, the number of FCUs installed for heating varies case to case, although similar FCUs are used. Thus, it is necessary to study the installation height, orientation and installation distance as well as the appropriate number of FCUs from the efficient and economical viewpoints. The required numbers of FCUs for surplus solar energy recovery were 8.4-10.9units and 6.1-8.0units based on air mass and circular flow rate that passed through the FCUs. Considering calculation methods and the risks such as efficiency and use environments of FCUs, it was found that about nine units (one unit per $24m^3$ approximately) needed to be installed. The required number of FCUs for surplus solar energy recovery was around one unit per $24m^3$ approximately.

A review on the papers published in the Korean Journal of Air-Conditioning and Refrigerating Engineering in 2004 and 2005 has been done. Focus has been put on current status of research in the aspect of heating, cooling, air-conditioning, ventilation, sanitation and building environment. The conclusions are as follows. (1) Most of fundamental studies on fluid flow were related with heat transportation of facilities. Drop formation and rivulet flow on solid surfaces were interesting topics related with condensation augmentation. Research on micro environment considering flow, heat, humidity was also interesting for comfortable living environment. It can be extended considering biological aspects. Development of fans and blowers of high performance and low noise were continuing topics. Well developed CFD and flow visualization(PIV, PTV and LDV methods) technologies were widely applied for developing facilities and their systems. (2) The research trends of the previous two yews are surveyed as groups of natural convection, forced convection, electronic cooling, heat transfer enhancement, frosting and defrosting, thermal properties, etc. New research topics introduced include natural convection heat transfer enhancement using nanofluid, supercritical cooling performance or oil miscibility of $CO_2$, enthalpy heat exchanger for heat recovery, heat transfer enhancement in a plate heat exchanger using fluid resonance. (3) The literature for the last two years($2004{\sim}2005$) is reviewed in the areas of heat pump, ice and water storage, cycle analysis and reused energy including geothermal, solar and unused energy). The research on cycle analysis and experiments for $CO_2$ was extensively carried out to replace the Ozone depleting and global warming refrigerants such as HFC and HCFC refrigerants. From the year of 2005, the Gas Engine Heat Pump(GHP) has been paid attention from the viewpoint of the gas cooling application. The heat pipe was focused on the performance improvement by the parametric analysis and the heat recovery applications. The storage systems were studied on the performance enhancement of the storage tank and cost analysis for heating and cooling applications. In the area of unused energy, the hybrid systems were extensively introduced and the life cycle cost analysis(LCCA) for the unused energy systems was also intensively carried out. (4) Recent studies of various refrigeration and air-conditioning systems have focused on the system performance and efficiency enhancement. Heat transfer characteristics during evaporation and condensation are investigated for several tube shapes and of alternative refrigerants including carbon dioxide. Efficiency of various compressors and expansion devices are also dealt with for better modeling and, in particular, performance improvement. Thermoelectric module and cooling systems are analyzed theoretically and experimentally. (5) According to the review of recent studies on ventilation systems, an appropriate ventilation systems including machenical and natural are required to satisfied the level of IAQ. Also, an recent studies on air-conditioning and absorption refrigeration systems, it has mainly focused on distribution and dehumidification of indoor air to improve the performance were carried out. (6) Based on a review of recent studies on indoor environment and building service systems, it is noticed that research issues have mainly focused on optimal thermal comfort, improvement of indoor air Quality and many innovative systems such as air-barrier type perimeter-less system with UFAC, radiant floor heating and cooling system and etc. New approaches are highlighted for improving indoor environmental condition as well as minimizing energy consumption, various activities of building control and operation strategy and energy performance analysis for economic evaluation.
