에너지절감에 대한 인식이 높아짐에 따라 점차 건물이 밀폐화되고 있으며, 이로 인하여 실내공기질에 영향을 미치는 건축자재로부터의 휘발성유기화합물 방출에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 그러므로 실내공기질을 개선하는데 있어 건축자재로부터의 VOCs 방출특성을 파악하는 것이 무엇보다 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 우리나라가 온돌문화인 점을 고려하여 대표적인 건축자재인 온돌마루와 접착제를 대상으로, 방출챔버시험을 통하여 온도 및 시간경과에 따른 헥산, 톨루엔 및 TVOCs 방출특성을 살펴보았다. VOCs의 방출속도는 온도와 비례관계를 나타내었으며, 바닥재에 존재하는 VOCs 발생원이 어느 위치에, 어떠한 형태로 존재하느냐가 시간의 경과에 따른 방출특성에 크게 영향을 미친다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 즉, 건축자재로부터의 헥산, 톨루엔의 방출은 전반적으로 초기에 방출속도가 높고 시간이 지남에 따라 점차 줄어드는 경향을 보이고 있으나, 온돌마루로부터의 톨루엔 방출은 다른 양상을 보이는데 시간이 지남에 따라 방출속도가 오히려 증가하여 6시간 경과 후 최대값을 보인 뒤 점차 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 이는 온돌마루에 함유되어 있는 톨루엔 발생원이 자재의 내부에 많이 존재하고 있기 때문에 시간이 경과함에 따라 방출속도가 증가했다가 다시 감소하는 경향을 보인 것으로 추정된다. 바닥재로부터의 VOCs 방출특성 실험결과를 종합하여 살펴보면, 온돌시스템에서 방출되는 고농도의 VOCs에 인체노출을 줄이기 위해서는 이사하기 전에 적어도 72시간 이상의 Bake-out 시간이 필요할 것이라 사료된다.

A single-layer graphene has been uniformly grown on a Cu surface at elevated temperatures by thermally processing a poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) film in a rapid thermal annealing (RTA) system under vacuum. The detailed chemistry of the transition from solid-state carbon to graphene on the catalytic Cu surface was investigated by performing in-situ residual gas analysis while PMMA/Cu-foil samples being heated, in conjunction with interrupted growth studies to reconstruct ex-situ the heating process. The data clearly show that the formation of graphene occurs with hydrocarbon molecules vaporized from PMMA, such as methane and/or methyl radicals, as precursors rather than by the direct graphitization of solid-state carbon. We also found that the temperature for vaporizing hydrocarbon molecules from PMMA and the length of time the gaseous hydrocarbon atmosphere is maintained, which are dependent on both the heating temperature profile and the amount of a solid carbon feedstock are the dominant factors to determine the crystalline quality of the resulting graphene film. Under optimal growth conditions, the PMMA-derived graphene was found to have a carrier (hole) mobility as high as ~2,700 cm2V-1s-1 at room temperature, superior to common graphene converted from solid carbon.

Unconsolidated and permeable alluvial deposit composed of sand and gravel is distributed along the fluvial plain at the Iryong study area. Previous studies on the area show that a single alluvial well can produce at least 1,650m3d-1 of bank infilterated shallow groundwater(BIGW) from the deposit. This study is aimed to evaluate and simulate the influence that seasonal variation of water levels and temperatures of the river have an effect on those of BIGW under the pumping condition and also to compare seasonal variation of COPs when indirectly pumped BIGW or directly pumped surface water are used for a water to water heat pump system as an heat source and sink using 3 D flow and heat transport model of Feflow. The result shows that the magnitude influenced to water level of BIGW by fluctuation of river water level in summer and winter is about 48% and 75% of Nakdong river water level separately. Seasonal change of river water temperature is about $23.7^{\circ}C$, on other hand that of BIGW is only $3.8^{\circ}C$. The seasonal temperatures of BIGW are ranged from minimum $14.5^{\circ}C$ in cold winter(January) and maximum $18.3^{\circ}C$ in hot summer(July). It stands for that BIGW is a good source of heat energy for heating and cooling system owing to maintaining quite similar temperature($16^{\circ}C$) of background shallow groundwater. Average COPh in winter time and COPc in summer time of BIGW and surface water are estimated about 3.95, 3.5, and about 6.16 and 4.81 respectively. It clearly indicates that coefficient of performance of heat pump system using BIGW are higher than 12.9% in winter time and 28.1% in summer time in comparision with those of surface water.

$Ce^{3+}$-doped yttrium aluminum gallium garnet (YAGG:$Ce^{3+}$), which is a green-emitting phosphor, was synthesized by solid state reaction using ${\alpha}$-phase or ${\gamma}$-phase of nano-sized $Al_2O_3$ as the Al source. The processing conditions and the chemical composition of phosphor for the maximum emission intensity were optimized on the basis of emission intensity under vacuum UV excitation. The optimum heating temperature for phosphor preparation was $1550^{\circ}C$. Photoluminescence properties of the synthesized phosphor were investigated in detail. From the excitation and emission spectra, it was confirmed that the YAGG:$Ce^{3+}$ phosphors effectively absorb the vacuum UV of 120-200 nm and emit green light positioned around 530 nm. The crystalline phase of the alumina nanoparticles affected the particle size and the luminescence property of the synthesized phosphors. Nano-sized ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ was more effective for the achievement of higher emission intensity than was nano-sized ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$. This discrepancy is considered to be because the diffusion of $Al^{3+}$ into $Y_2O_3$ lattice is dependent on the crystalline phase of $Al_2O_3$, which affects the phase transformation of YAGG:$Ce^{3+}$ phosphors. The optimum chemical composition, having the maximum emission intensity, was $(Y_{2.98}Ce_{0.02})(Al_{2.8}Ga_{1.8})O_{11.4}$ prepared with ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$. On the other hand, the decay time of the YAGG:$Ce^{3+}$ phosphors, irrespective of the crystalline phase of the nano-sized alumina source, was below 1 ms due to the allowed $5d{\rightarrow}4f$ transition of the $Ce^{3+}$ activator.

본 연구에서는 자기공명영상(MRI)에서 수소 원자핵의 공명주파수(PRF) 방법을 기반으로 인체 종아리 근육 외부의 열원에 의해 근육 내부로 열원이 전달되는 과정을 비침습적으로 관찰하는 방법을 제시한다. 열전달과정을 온도 변화로 측정하였는데 온도 영상의 안정성 및 보정 실험은 phantom을 이용하였고 온도의 변화는 phantom과 인체 모두에서 측정하였다. Phantom 실험은 agarose gel을 중탕하여 약 50℃까지 가열시킨 후 1시간의 냉각과정 동안 매 3분마다 데이터를 획득하였다. 인체 실험에서는 지원자의 종아리(the calf)에 hot pack을 이용하여 열을 전달하였다. Hot pack을 발열시키기 전에 기준 데이터를 1번 획득하고, 발열시킨 후부터 매 2분마다 30분 동안 데이터를 획득하였다. 획득된 영상 데이터는 위상차 영상으로 재구성된 다음 각 ROI에서의 평균 위상차를 관측하였다. 온도를 34.2∼50.2℃의 범위에서 변화시켰을 때 phantom의 위상차는 온도 변화에 대해 선형적으로 변하였다. 이 범위에서 측정된 온도의 해상도는 0.0457 radian/℃(0.0038 ppm/℃)였다. 인체 실험에서는 각 영상에서 hot pack과 가까운 위치의 평균 위상차가 hot pack과 먼 위치의 평균 위상차보다 작은 값을 나타냈다 이를 통해 같은 영상 단면에서도 열원(heat source)과의 거리에 따라서 온도 변화가 다르게 나타나는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 PRF방법을 이용하여 MRI에서도 비침습적으로 인체 내부의 열전달과정을 관측하였고 이로서 온열치료 시 MRI가 임상적 이용 가능성이 있음을 확인하였다.

약용식물인 천궁(Cnidium officinale Makino)의 미활용 부위의 생리활성 탐색을 위한 기초연구로서, 천궁 지상부(잎과 줄기)를 ethyl acetate, methanol, 물의 3가지 용매로 추출한 후, paper disc method와 microtiter broth dilution method를 이용하여 항균활성을 측정하였다. 천궁 지상부 ethyl acetate 추출물과 methanol 추출물은 비교적 높은 항균활성을 보였으며, Gram 양성균, Gram 음성균, 그리고 효모 등에 대해 broad한 항균범위를 지닌 것으로 나타났다. 특히 ethyl acetate 추출물은 0.4 mg/disc의 농도에서 Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhimurium, Listeria monocytogenes등의 식중독균에 대해 각각 9.7 mm, 9.2 mm, 10.0 mm의 억제환을 보였다. Saccharomyces cerevisiae에 대한 항진균활성은 물 추출물과 유기용매 추출물에서 확인되었다. 그러나 물 추출물의 항균 및 항진균 활성은 유기용매 추출물에 비해 현저히 낮아 비교적 높은 농도에서 항균효과가 나타났다. 천궁 지상부 ethyl acetate 추출물의 항균활성은 사용 농도와 균의 종류에 따라 다른 것으로 나타났으며, 0.5 mg/mL의 농도에서 Staphylococcus aureus와 Pseudomonas aerogenes의 생육은 완전히 저해되었으나, 0.25 mg/mL 이하의 농도에서는 생육억제효과가 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. Enterobacter cloacae는 0.5 mg/mL의 추출물 처리에 의해 생육이 2 log cycle정도 억제된 반면, Escherichia cole는 비교적 저항성이 강한 것으로 나타났다. 천궁의 ethyl acetate 추출물은 열에 매우 안정하여 $100^{\circ}C$ 30분 또는 $121^{\circ}C$에서 15분간의 열처리(autoclave)에 의해서 항균활성이 감소되지않는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 약용으로 이용되고 있는 천궁의 근경 이외의 미활용자원인 잎과 줄기 등의 지상부위를 이용한 천연 항균소재 개발이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

Turbulent fluxes of sensible heat and latent heat were analyzed at King Sejong station in the austral summer of 2002 (December) and 2003 (January and February). Monthly mean air temperatures of January and February (2.2oC) were similar to those averaged over 1988 to 2001. Precipitation was less in January and greater in February than those averaged over last 14 years. In December of 2002 and January, there was precipitation primarily when easterly wind blew usually. The frequency of snowfall was equal to or larger than that of rainfall. In the mean while, precipitation primarily in forms of rainfall occurred with westerly wind in February. In addition, while for easterly wind, temperature and humidity was low, temperature and humidity were high in case of westerly wind. Based on flux footprint, measured flux mainly came from within 300 m with maximum of 40 m upwind, indicating the insignificant role of the sea around the study site. Half-hourly downward short wave radiation amounted up to ∼ 1000 Wm-2 and net radiation ranged from -50 to 600 Wm-2. Half-hourly sensible heat flux was positive at daytime with maximum of ∼ 400 Wm-2, except the 27th and 28th in February of 2003 when it was negative all day despite of positive net radiation at short daytime. Latent heat flux was positive with maximum of ∼ 130 Wm-2. Depending on wind direction, the partitioning of net radiation into the sum of sensible heat flux and latent heat flux was larger than 0.8, indicating the strong source of the land surface for the atmospheric heating. The daytime averaged Bowen ratio (=sensible heat flux /latent heat flux) was significantly greater than 1, indicating that sensible heat flux was the main source to heat the atmosphere over the site.

Korean Photochemical Assessment Monitoring Stations (PAMS) have been established since the late 2001 to monitor ambient air concentrations of VOC species, which would enhance understanding photo-chemical formation of ozone and subsequently contribute to developing efficient ozone control strategies. The present study aims at identifying major VOC species and examining their trends by analyzing PAMS monitoring data collected from the year 2006 to 2016. All the 18 PAMS sites operated by the Ministry of Environment were included in the study. PAMS monitored the 56 target VOC species, which are classified into four groups, alkenes, lower alkanes ($C{\leq}3$), higher alkanes ($C{\geq}4$), aromatics. The higher alkanes and aromatics dominated over the lower alkanes and alkenes in the type 2 and 3 PAMS sites except Joongheung site. N-butane was a major alkane species, toluene was a major aromatic species and most of VOCs showed decreasing trends in these sites. On the other hand, only the alkenes showed decreasing trends at the Joongheung site in Yeosu. Major sources of abundant species such as ethane, propane, n-butane, toluene were estimated by analyzing seasonal variations, correlation with other VOC species, and emission profiles. A major source of n-butane was identified as LPG cars, while major sources of toluene varied considerably from one site to another. The lower alkanes were composed of ethane and propane, both of which showed a strong seasonal variation, low in the summer and high in the winter, indicating that a major source might be the heating by gaseous fuels. Ozone formation potentials of VOC species were evaluated by applying MIR and POCP to the measured VOC species concentrations. Toluene contributed the most to total ozone forming potentials followed by m,p-xylene for all the type 2 and 3 PAMS sites except for two sites in Yeosu-Gwangyang. Ethylene and propylene were the first and second contributors to total ozone forming potentials at Joongheung site in Yeosu.
