The heat transfer characteristics of horizontal and vertical mantle heat storage tanks are studied in order to replace the tank-coil heat exchanger for application in thermosyphon solar water heaters. In this study, 5 mantle storage tanks with different geometric shape are manufactured into stainless steel and each tank is tested. For the test, The inlet flow rate of the heat transfer fluid is maintained 1.2 lpm consistently. The heat transfer fluid temperature through the mantle is $70{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. The temperatures of 26 points included the ambient temperature are measured at every one minute. The measured data are used to calculate the overall heat transfer coefficient(UA) using the LMTD(Log Mean Temperature Difference) method and it is used on the analysis of the heat transfer characteristics to search for optimum arrangement.

The generation of electric power and plant facilities have been attempting to improve energy efficiency with many efforts as those being basis of our country's economy. In particular, the CHP(Combined Heat Power plant) system, is producing the electricity and process steam, has generally been using for the cogeneration plants. When CHP system operates, the steam has to maintain the high temperature and high pressure in order to have high efficiency of electric power production as much as possible. In addition, the exhausted steam from the turbine has to reform proper temperature to use the needed process. The major purpose of desuperheater is that the superheated steam changes into the saturated steam because it is more efficient and suitable for using the process, furthermore, it is more convenient and stable regarding the process temperature control. The design of the desuperheater obtained through the experiment and preceding analysis. This paper is verified by analysis that water spray nozzle(${\Phi}$=28mm) shows the best ability under the real power plant condition.

A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method is described for the simultaneous determination of three antibacterial flavonoids, artocarpanone, artocarpin, and cycloartocarpin in ethyl acetate extracts from Artocarpus heterophyllus heartwoods. Separation was achieved using a TSK-gel ODS-80Tm column ($5{\mu}m$, $4.6{\times}150mm$) at $25^{\circ}C$ with a gradient elution system of methanol and water as follows: 0-8 min, 60:40; 8-27 min, 80:20; 27-35 min, 60:40, v/v, at a flow rate of 1 mL/min, and a quantitative UV detection at 285 nm. The method was validated by measuring the key parameters, including specificity, linearity, sensitivity, accuracy, repeatability and reproducibility. A high degree of specificity and sensitivity was achieved. The calibration curves for all three flavonoids showed good linearity with a coefficient of determinations ($R^2$) of ${\geq}0.9995$. The recoveries of the method were from 98-104%, with good reproducibility and repeatability (RSD values of less than 2%) were also achieved. Ethyl acetate was the best solvent for extraction of these three flavonoids using the heat reflux conditions for 1 h. This optimized sample preparation and HPLC method can be practically used for a routine standardization process of the extracts from the A. heterophyllus heartwoods.

The floating ring seal which is used in the high pressure turbo pump is frequently used in the oxidizer pump and the fuel pump of the turbo pump of the liquid propulsion rocket, because it is able to minimize clearance to decrease the leakage flow rate. Compared with contact seal, the floating ring seal has advantage of minimizing clearance without rubbing phenomenon. But, the floating ring seal has a tendency to increase instability in operating condition in the high speed region. In this research, we devised floating ring seal which is inserted bump in the outer surface in order to improve the stability in the high speed region. Through this work, we expect to improve stability of floating ring seal with increasing the direct damping coefficient of seal and decreasing the eccentricity ratio.

Experimental results for forced convection condensation of non-azeotropic refrigerant mixtures inside a horizontal smooth tube are presented. The mixtures of R-22+R-134a and pure refrigerants R-22 and R-134a are used as the test fluids and a double pipe heat exchanger of 7.5mm ID and 4800mm long inside tube is used. The range of parameters are 100-300kg/h of mass flow rate, 0-1.0 of quality, and 0, 33, 50, 67, and 100 weight percent of R-22 mass fraction in the mixtures. The heat flux, vapor pressure, vapor temperature and tube wall temperature were measured. Using the data, the local and average heat transfer coefficients for the condensation have been obtained. In the same given experimental conditions, the liquid heat transfer coefficients for NARMs were considerally lower than that of the pure refrigerant of R-22 and R-134a. Local heat transfer characteristics for NARMs were different from pure refrigerant R-22 and R-134a. In some regions, local heat transfer coefficients for NARMs were increased in the following order ; Bottom$\rightarrow$Top$\rightarrow$Side. The condensation heat transfer coefficients for NARMs increased with mass velocity, heat flux, and quality, but were considerably lower than that of pure refigerant R-22 and R-134a.

하천의 조도계수는 흐름에 대한 하도의 저항 정도를 표시하는 지표로서, 하천의 다양한 수리 계산을 실시할 때 가장 중요한 기본 자료 중 하나이다. 이러한 조도계수는 하도의 형상, 하상 재료, 유량의 크기 등에 의해 영향을 받는다. 본 연구에서는 하천의 유량 규모에 따른 조도계수의 변화 정도를 수리 실험과 수치 모의를 통해 간접적으로 검토하였다. 유량 조건별 수리 실험은 한국건설기술연구원의 하천실험센터 내 직선 수로에서 수행하였고, 수치 모의는 HEC-RAS를 이용하였다. 유량 조건은 하천실험센터의 펌프 가동의 정도를 고려하여 5개로 구분하였고, 각각의 유량 조건에 대하여 유량을 실측하였다. 실측에 따른 유량의 규모는 $0.23{\sim}1.91m^3/s$로 나타났다. 각각의 유량 조건에 대하여 수치 모의의 검증을 위해 6개 지점에서 수위표와 초음파 수위계를 이용하여 수위를 계측하였고, 이 가운데 최하류 지점의 수위는 HEC-RAS 모형의 하류단 경계조건으로 이용하였다. 실험 하도 구간의 총 연장은 372 m 이고, 횡단구조물이 없는 지점을 제외하면 대부분 20 m 간격으로 총 21개의 하천 단면을 입력하여 HEC-RAS를 구성하였다. 각각의 유량 조건에 대한 수치 모의 모형은 5개 수위 계측 지점의 수위 오차가 최소화되도록 조도계수를 변화시켜 보정되었다. 그 결과, 각각의 유량 조건에 대한 수치 모의 결과의 평균 오차는 0.01~0.02 m로 계산치와 관측치가 매우 근사하였다. 결정된 조도계수는 0.041~0.075의 범위를 가지는 것으로 분석되었고, 유량의 증가에 따라 큰 폭으로 감소하다가 특정한 값에 수렴하는 것으로 검토되었다.

The resistance of soil to the tractive force of flowing water is one of the essential parameters for the stability of the soil when directly exposed to the movement of water such as in rivers and ocean beds. Biopolymers, which are new to sustainable geotechnical engineering practices, are known to enhance the mechanical properties of soil. This study addresses the surface erosion resistance of river-sand treated with several biopolymers that originated from micro-organisms, plants, and dairy products. We used a state-of-the-art erosion function apparatus with P-wave reflection monitoring. Experimental results have shown that biopolymers significantly improve the erosion resistance of soil surfaces. Specifically, the critical shear stress (i.e., the minimum shear stress needed to detach individual soil grains) of biopolymer-treated soils increased by 2 to 500 times. The erodibility coefficient (i.e., the rate of increase in erodibility as the shear stress increases) decreased following biopolymer treatment from 1 × 10-2 to 1 × 10-6 times compared to that of untreated river-sands. The scour prediction calculated using the SRICOS-EFA program has shown that a height of 14 m of an untreated surface is eroded during the ten years flow of the Nakdong River, while biopolymer treatment reduced this height to less than 2.5 m. The result of this study has demonstrated the possibility of cross-linked biopolymers for river-bed stabilization agents.

This study aimed to develop a UPLC-MS/MS method for determining plasma levels of L-aspartic acid and L-asparagine and the activity of L-asparaginase. L-aspartic acid, L-asparagine, and L-aspartic acid-2,3,3-$d_3$ were extracted from human plasma by protein precipitation with sulfosalicylic acid (30%, v/v). The plasma samples were analyzed using an Imtakt Intrada amino acid analysis column with 25 mM ammonium formate and 0.5% formic acid in acetonitrile as the mobile phase with step gradient method at a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min. The injection volume was $5{\mu}L$, and the total run time was 15 min. Inter- and intra-batch accuracies (%) ranged from 96.62-106.0% for L-aspartic acid and 89.85-104.8%, for L-asparagine, and the coefficient of variation (CV%) did not exceed 7%. The validation results for L-aspartic acid and L-asparagine satisfied the specified criterion, however, the results for L-asparaginase activity assay showed a borderline validity. This study could be a foundation for further development of therapeutic drug monitoring systems using UPLC-MS/MS.
