For stable combustion and safety of a structure of the propulsion system, a cooling system to the liquid rocket engine should be incorporated. In this study, Eulerian-Lagrangian scheme for two phase combustion, nongray radiation and soot formation effect, and film-wall interaction have been introduced to study the effect of film cooling. After briefly introducing the governing equation, combustion characteristics with change of wall temperature has been investigated by varying such parameters as fuel mass fraction for film cooling, diameter of the fuel droplet, overall mixture fraction of oxygen to fuel. Also, radiative heat flux is compared with the conductive one at the combustor wall.

Seasonal variation in global transport calculated from an ocean general circulation model (OGCM) has been assessed through the comparison with observational estimates. The OGCM based on the GFDL MOM1.1 has honzontal grid interval of 10 and 21 verticle levels, and was integrated for 31 years forced by climatological wind stress, freshwater flux, and heat flux with restoring. General features of the world ocean circulation are well reproduced, which include the western boundary currents such as the Kuroshio and the Agulhas Current, the Equatorial Current system, the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, and the Weddell Sea gyres. Also well resolved is the remarkable seasonal variation in the depth-integrated flows in the northern Indian Ocean due to the monsoonal wind. Monthly variation is found to be dominant in the transport of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current through the Drake Passage in accordance with observational estimates. It has been shown that the mid-latitude depth-integrated flows obey the Sverdrup relation, except for some regions such as continental shelf regions where the interaction between stratification and bottom topography is critical.

The burning characteristics of interacting droplets with internal circulation in a convective flow are numerically investigated at various Reynolds numbers. The transient combustion of 2-dimensionally arranged droplets, both the fixed droplet distances of 5 radii to 40 radii horizontally and 4 radii to 24 radii vertically, is studied. The results obtained from the present numerical analysis reveal that the transient flame configuration and retardation of droplet internal motion with the horizontal or vertical droplet spacing substantially influence lifetime of interacting droplets. At a low Reynolds number, lifetime of the two droplets with decreasing horizontal droplet spacing increases monotonically, whereas their lifetime with decreasing vertical droplet spacing decreases due to flow acceleration. This flow acceleration effect is reversed when the vertical droplet spacing is smaller than 5 radii in which decreasing flame penetration depth causes the reduction of heat transfer from flame to droplets. At a high Reynolds number, however, lifetime of the first droplet is hardly affected by either the horizontal droplet spacing or flow acceleration effect. Lifetime with decreasing vertical droplet spacing increases due to reduction of flame penetration depth. Lifetime of interacting droplets exhibits a strong dependence on Reynolds number, the horizontal droplet spacing and the vertical droplet spacing and can be con-elated well with these conditions to that of single burning droplet.

This study was carried out to characterize the antilisterial substances produced by Leuconostoc sp. W65 and to evaluate the effects of pH, temperature, and time on inhibitory activity using response surface methodology. Leucocin W65, an antilisterial substance produced by Leuconostoc sp. W65, markedly inhibited the growth of Listeria monocytogenes, L. innocua, and L. ivanovii, whereas other pathogens including Gram-negative bacteria were not susceptible. The pH was the most effective factor with regard to bacteriocin activity, while temperature and time of heat treatment had no significant effect. Fifty percent of inhibitory activity remained after 22.8 min at pH 4.2 and $121^{\circ}C$. Leucocin W65 was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, hydrophobic interaction chromatography, and tricine-SDS-PAGE. Compositional analysis originally estimated the peptide to be 56 amino acids in length without asparagine, glutamine, and tryptophane. The sequence of partial N-terminal amino acid residues of purified bacteriocin was identified as follows: $NH_{2}-XGXAGVXPXGGQQPXVPLXYP$.

We previously reported that Streptococcus pneumoniae capsule attached to the surface protein (JY-Pol) was protective to systemic pneumococcal infection. The JY -Pol antigen induced IgM, IgG, and IgA in mice and provoked cell-mediated immunity. In this current study, we investigated the effect of anti JY-Pol antiserun and monoclonal antibody C2 (Mab C2) specific for the JY-Pol antigen against the pneumococcal disease. Mice that were given the antiserum survived longer than mice that received antiserum pre-absorbed with S.pneumoniae cells or DPBS as a negative control. Heat-treated anti JY-Pol antiserum resulted in survival rates similar to intact fresh JY-Pol antiserum. Mab C2 isolated from JY-Pol-immunized mice also enhanced resistance of naive mice against the pneumococcal diseaser. This protection by Mab C2 appeared to be mediated by opsonization as determined in a RAW 264.7 monocyte/macrophage cell line. Epitope analysis showed that Mab C2 epitope consisted of glucuronic acid and glucose that blocked the interaction of JY-Pol to the C2. Taken together, these data indicate that the antiserum induced by the JY-Pol, a naturally pneumococcal conjugate formula, mediated the protection by passive transfer, which was confirmed by protective effect of Mab C2.

The solubilities of 1-phenyl-2-acetamido-3-butanone were measured in $H_2O$ at 20, 30 and 40$^{\circ}$C at pressure from 1 to 4500 kg/$cm^2$. Pressure going up to 4500 kg/$cm^2$, the solubility in $H_2O$decreases consistantly as that of diketopiperazine does. As diketopiperazine is a model compound of peptide bond and 1-phenyl-2-acetamido-3-butanone has only one peptide bond and a pretty large hydrophobic group, the solubility behavior is quite surprising. Volume change and heat capacity change data are reasonable.

Adsorption experiment of carbon dioxide was performed on MCM41 silica with a 30 wt.% EDA(ethylenediamine) loading at different $CO_2$ inlet concentration and various adsorption temperature. The surface characteristics of $CO_2$ capturing agent were carried out using BET analysis, X-ray diffraction and FT-IR. The results of BET showed 781 $m^2/g$ for MCM41 and 464 $m^2/g$ for EDA/MCM41. X-ray diffraction results reveled typical hexagonal pore system. The higher sorption capacity of EDA/MCM41 was about 80 $mg_{CO2}/g_{sorbent}$ with 50% $CO_2$ inlet concentration and 303 K adsorption temperature. The isosteric heat of adsorption in 303-353 K ranged from -25.47 to -28.24 KJ/mole for EDA/MCM41, which indicates $CO_2$-EDA/MCM41 interaction with exothermic adsorption process. Finally, the performance of EDA/MCM41 in 10 consecutive sorption-desorption runs was a stable with only a minor drop in its sorption capacity.

Many isolated featureless domains were explicitly observed even at the air-water interface. We measured the surface pressure shift originating from the photo-isomerization of azobenzene units on the periphery of dendrimers. The maximum surface pressure was gradual1y increased and saturated by cyclic compression and decompression. By irradiation of 365 [nm] light, the surface pressure was increased, which was originated by the photo-isomerization process of the azobenzene group on the periphery from trans to cia form. The increase of the dipole moment ($\mu$), which may increase the interaction among Azo dendrimer molecules, made an important role on surface pressure shift. From the absorbance spectrum by UV irradiation and heat treatment, we can see that the absorbance in the UV region decreases with the increase of the UV irradiation time, but the peak at 350 m, characteristic of dendrimers in the LB monolayers, was not shifted until four irradiation cycles. This suggests that optical behavior and morphological change are affected by the functional group and the symmetric chain.

Few-walled carbon nanotubes (FWNTs)-based field emitters with long term stability are fabricated by using a spray method. Tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) sol as a binder was mixed with dispersed solution of FWNTs to enhance the adhesion of FWNTs on the cathode substrate. Due to the strong intermolecular interaction of TEOS to the functional groups attached on CNTs and substrate, CNTs are tightly adhered to the cathode electrode when heat treatment is performed at $150^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour, resulting in a stable electron emission of CNT emitters for long time. Excellent field emission characteristics were exhibited, with a large field enhancement factor and low turn-on voltage, comparable to those of CNT emitters fabricated by a screen printing of CNT paste. Therefore, FWNTs / TEOS hybrid films could be utilized as an alternative for the efficient and reliable field emitters.

Turbulent jet in a crossflow, issuing from a row of holes on a convex surface of 90 .deg. bend duct, is predicted by a 3-dimensional numerical method. The Cartesian coordinate system in adopted in upstream and downstream tangents and the cylindrical polar coordinate system in curved region. The Reynolds stresses and heat fluxes are obtained from a standard k-e model in the core region and van Driest model in the vicinity of the wall. The governing equations are discretized by a finite volume method and solutions are obtained by a locally elliptic calculation procedure. Pressure and convective terms are treated by SIMPLE algorithm and hybrid scheme respectively. A vortex initially induced by the injected jet has been built up due to the interaction with the secondary flow caused by pressure gradient and centrifugal force. The vortex structure has a strong influence on the wall cooling effectiveness. Another vortex like horseshoe is formed in the vicinity of the injection hole and its strength is getting weak as it moves downward.
