The emergency evacuation support system provides a safe means of evacuation by preventing the inflow of smoke through the formation of a smoke shield curtain in fire situations and pressurizing fresh air to the inside of the smoke shield curtain. In this study, numerical analysis was performed to examine the effects of the hole size on the flow inside the smoke curtain. As the air supply size decreased, the flow rate through the air supply was formed relatively uniformly from the inlet to the outlet length of the emergency support system. In addition, the size of the air supply hole was more than 20 mm, the flow rate was very low near the outlet, so the air supply hole size should be smaller than 20 mm. In addition, the minor loss of the air supply hole was calculated to be K = 1.5 from the numerical results. Therefore, the proper design of an emergency evacuation support system is possible using the flow characteristics according to the size and minor loss of the air supply hole.

A subway system is one of the major transportation modes at a metropolitan area. When it meets the other lines, the metro station, so-called transferring station, is usually threatened by severe pedestrian congestion and safety issue of transit users including the transportation vulnerable. Although transportation planners forecast travel demand at the beginning, it is not easy to predict pedestrian flows precisely for a long term if land use plans have dramatically changed. Due to expensive costs, structural extension of metro stations is limited. Therefore, it requires efficient and technical improvements as meeting the demand of pedestrian and physical characteristics. In this study, the core mechanism of pedestrian movement-based simulation model was introduced and evacuation scenarios were analyzed with the developed model. As a result, the multiple optimal routes for unexpected events at the solid space of the multiple stories are easily searched through the simulator and in the case of Sadang Station, travel time can be reduced by 60% when the evacuation information and intuitive design are provided.

Purpose: In this study, in order to ensure the evacuation safety of plant facilities, we analyze the relationship between the height of smoke removal boundary walls, the presence or absence of smoke removal equipment, and evacuation safety. Method: Using fire and evacuation simulations, evacuation safety was analyzed through changes in the height of the smoke removal boundary wall, air supply volume and exhaust volume according to vertical dista. Result: In the case of visible drawings, if only 0.6m of boundary wall is used, the time below 5m reaches the shortest, and 1.2m of boundary width is 20% longer than when using smoke removal facilities. In the case of temperature, 1.2m is 20% longer than 0.6m when only the boundary width is used without smoke removal facilities. Conclusion: It was found that increasing the length of the smoke removal boundary wall could affect visibility, and installing a smoke removal facility would affect temperature. Therefore, it is determined that an appropriate smoke removal plan and smoke removal equipment should be installed in consideration of the process characteristics.

In this study, the outgassing effects of selected vacuum materials on the vacuum characteristics were simulated by the $VacSim^{Multi}$ simulation tool. This investigation examined the feasibility of reliably simulating the outgassing characteristics of common vacuum chamber materials (aluminum, copper, stainless steel, nickel plated steel, Viton A). The optimum design factors for these vacuum systems were suggested based on the simulation results. The baking-out effects of the modeled systems and materials on the performance of the vacuum system were also analyzed. The simulation predicted that the overall outgassing effect was more significant in the turbomolecular pump system than in the diffusion pump system and that the utilization of a booster pump has a greater effect on the evacuation time than on the ultimate pressure.

Plasma Display Panel is a display device emitting fluorescent light from gas discharge between a front and a rear panel sealed together. Front and rear panel have multitude of film layers and barrier ribs in the rear panel has the largest area so releasing various gases and affecting light emitting characteristics and lifetime. The remaining gases in a barrier rib were studied by thermal desorption analysis up to $400^{\circ}C$ and main gases were $H_2$ $H_2$O, CO. During sustaining at $300^{\circ}C$, the outgassing rates from other gases were decreased but$ H_2$ kept constantly increasing until 1 hour, which can be originated from the dissociation of organics remained in the inside of barrier rib material. In $H_2$O, two distinct peaks were observed: desorption from physically adsorbed one at $l00^{\circ}C$ and from chemically adsorbed one $400^{\circ}C$. The result can be utilized in interpretation of electronic and optical characteristics and evacuation process control of PDP

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of roasted soy f1our on the characteristics of Mandu-pi. Various Mandu-pi samples were prepared with wheat flour along with the addition of different amount of roasted soy flour. and then instrumental characteristics and sensory evacuation were investigated. As a result of amylography study, there were no difference In the initial pasting and maximum viscosity temperatures between samples. And maximum viscosity decreased with the increase of flour addition. In farinography study, the addition of roasted sop f1our did not affect the gelatinization temperature, while stability and developing time of dough increased by addition of soy flour level. Besides cooked weight, cooked volume and water absorption of Mandu-pi were also higher significantly than control. The more soy flour was added, the less lightness and more redness and yellowness were obtained. The result of sensory evaluation revealer that there were no differences between samples in beano aroma, smoothness, and chewness. However Mandu-pi added roasted soy flour showed higher scores in surface appreance, nutty aroma, nutty taste. sweet taste, and overall preferance than control.

Even though the passengers' safety has priority on Passenger ship, there is no criterion on the evacuation performance related with human behavior. To uncover the potential problems of domestic criteria on safety of passenger ships, this study performed simulation ad analysis the evacuees safety before and after the Sewol's remodelling. It is clear that the assembly stations of both before and after Sewol remodelling have sufficient areas to satisfy the domestic criterion by simply human- body's-area, but those are failed to assemble all the passengers by the simulation tool that reflects the human behaviors' characteristics. For the healing angle as 0 degree, and the criteria of SOLAS, it was found out that all the passengers can safely evacuate from each cabins to the embarkation stations for both of the before-and-after the Sewol remodelling. But for the healing angle as 20 degree, both of the before-and-after Sewol remodelling are evaluated as possible to make all the passengers evacuate for day scenario and impossible for night scenario of SOLAS criteria. And because of the worse conditions after the remodelling, the probabilities of Sewol(before) are showed wide band comparing to Naminoue (after).

Various desorption methods were investigated for an activated carbon and zeolite 13X packed bed after benzene adsorption. Desorption experiments using hot steam, purge gas, and evacuation were performed. As a result, the desorption with hot steam showed the best performance. Hot steam makes the temperature in the adsorption column increase and gives arise to the desorption. Drying process should be accompanied to increase the efficiency because steam vapor prevents the adsorption later. The vacuum desorption showed poor performance and it reveals that temperature swing operation is more effective than pressure swing operation. In the purge gas desorption, good performance was achieved using evacuation.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the change of pressure differential and smoke propagation characteristics in the elevator lobby with the resident's evacuation scenarios using fire modelling technique. The results showed absolute pressures in the fire room and elevator lobby can significantly increase to cause fire door to the stairway unclosed once it is open. This is due to constant pressure differentials, the increasing reference pressure of fire lobby and pressure leak from elevator lobby to fire lobby. Smoke exhaust mechanism was needed to prevent the continuous pressure rise in the living room. Over 200 Pa was expected upon closing the door during pressurization, which provide difficulties in opening the door for next refugee. Opening both fire door and entrance door may induce smoke flow from fire room to elevator lobby and stairway.
