Kimchi is a traditional fermented food of Korea and made by salting and fermenting vegetables. A negative impression on kimchi as a great source of sodium intake has grown in Korea since 1980 as people argue that sodium is a major cause of high blood pressure and metabolic syndrome. While people are more interested in healthy living in Korea, the negative impression is stronger now. This study analyzes the sensitive and negative reaction to sodium intake from kimchi, and suggests an alternative in the viewpoint that the sensitive reaction is one of food faddism which is a very popular topic currently in Korea.

국내 터널조명에는 저압나트륨램프, 고압나트륨램프, 형광램프 등이 주요 광원으로 사용되고 있으며, 터널 유지관리 비용 가운데 터널조명을 위한 전력요금은 가장 높은 비율을 차지하고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 터널조명은 낮은 소비전력, 장수명 등의 장점을 갖는 LED로 교체 중에 있다. 본 연구에서는 터널조명 LED 교체에 따른 효과 분석을 위하여 기존 터널조명이 저압나트륨램프인 8개소 터널에 대하여, LED 교체 전·후 터널 조도측정결과 및 1년간의 월별 전력사용량을 조사하였으며, 분석결과 터널조명 광원을 저압나트륨램프에서 LED로 교체 후 1년간 터널조명용 전력사용량은 26.1~59.6% 감소하였으며, 조도는 34.1~293% 향상된 것으로 나타났다.

Sodium hypochlorite, used as water disinfectant, is generated by electrolysis of salt. Compared to chlorine gas disinfection, it is free from high-pressure gas regulation and does not generate toxic gas, so it is increasingly used as a safe disinfectant. Despite these advantages, the concentration of sodium hypochlorite decreases with temperature during long-term storage, and the amount of chlorate increases when a large amount is added, it has mainly been applied to small-scale waterworks. To solve this problem, high sodium hypochlorite generation was developed. In this study, the changes of concentration and chlorate of sodium hypochlorite with time has been studied. As a result of the test, it was found that the usable period of sodium hypochlorite produced at a certain temperature or less was increased from 1.5 days to 13 days. Overall, sodium hypochlorite can be applied even in large-scale waterworks, which makes operation more stable and also reduces the disinfection byproducts, thus it contributed greatly to securing water quality.

A high-temperature sodium stainless steel heat pipe was fabricated and its performance has been investigated. The working fluid was sodium and it was sealed inside a straight tube container made of stainless steel. The amount of sodium occupied approximately 20% of the total volume of the heat pipe and its weight was 65.7gram. The length of a stainless steel container is 1002mm and its outside diameter is 25.4mm. Performance tests were carried out in a room air condition under a free convective environment and the measured temperatures are presented. The start-up behavior of the heat pipe from a frozen state was investigated for various heat input values between 600W and 1205W. In steady state, axial temperature distributions of a heat pipe were measured and its heat transfer rates were estimated in the range of vapor temperature from 50$0^{\circ}C$ to 63$0^{\circ}C$. It is found that there are small temperature differences in the vapor core along the axial direction of a sodium heat pipe for the high operating temperatures. But for the range of low operating temperatures there are large temperature drops along the vapor core region of a sodium heat pipe, because a small vapor pressure drop makes a large temperature drop. The transition temperature was reached more rapidly in the cases of high heat input rate for the sodium heat pipe.

기존의 고압 나트륨 램프의 I플라즈마 진단은 온도와 압력의 한 주기간의 평균값만을 구하고 있다. 그러나 고압 나트륨 램프의 플라즈마는 열관성이 작으므로 플라즈마 상태의 시간에 대한 변화가 크다. 그러므로 플라즈마 상태의 시간에 대한 변화를 진단할 필요성이 크다. 본 연구에서는 Na D선의 스팩트럼을 순서치로 측정하고 이를 해석하여 시간에 따른 플라즈마 상태를 구하는 spectroscopy에 의한 시변 진단 기법을 제안하고 있다.

The prototype generation IV sodium-cooled fast reactor (PGSFR) has been developed by the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute. This reactor uses sodium as a reactor coolant to transfer the core heat energy to the turbine. Sodium has chemical characteristics that allow it to violently react with materials such as a water or steam. When a sodium-water reaction (SWR) occurs due to leakage or breakage of steam generator tubes, high-pressure waves and corrosive reaction products are produced, which threaten the structural integrity of the components of the intermediate heat-transfer system (IHTS) and the safety of the primary heat-transfer system (PHTS). In the PGSFR, SWR events are included in the design-basis event. This event should be analyzed from the viewpoint of the integrities of the IHTS and fuel rods. To evaluate the integrity of the IHTS based on the consequences of the SWR, the behaviors of the generated high-pressure waves are analyzed at the major positions of a failed IHTS loop using a sodium-water advanced analysis method-II code. The integrity of the fuel rods must be consistently maintained below the safety acceptance criteria to avoid the consequences of the SWR. The integrity of the PHTS is evaluated using the multidimensional analysis of reactor safety-liquid metal reactor code to model the whole plant.

The effects of operating pressure, lactate concentration, impurities, and pH on solution flux and lactate rejection in nanofiltration were investigated with model sodium lactate solutions (lactate 10~200g/L) as a model system. In the tested range of pressure(80~140 psig), the solution flux was observed to be proportional to the operating pressure and the rejection of lactate increased only slightly with the pressure. Both of the flux and the rejection decreased with lactate concentration, while the recovery rate of lactate increased. The effects of glucose and yeast extract as impurities on lactate rejection were negligible, but the flux decreased significantly with the addition of yeast extract. At low lactate concentrations, the rejection of lactate increased with pH due to the increased repulsion (Donnan exclusion effect) between lactate ions and membrane surface. But, at high lactate concentrations, the donnan effect was observed to be overwhelmed by the effect of sodium ions added to adjust the pH, and the rejection of lactate decreased with pH. When fermentation broth containing about 89g/L of lactate was nanofiltered, the flux and the rejection of lactate were 2.8L/$m^2$h and 5%, respectively at 120psig. Both of them were slightly lower than those with model solutions. The recovery rate was 2.6mol/$m^2$h.

This study was conducted to research how UCD(Ultra Constant Discharge) lamp lighting affects plant cultivation. To get the results within a short time, lettuce seedling was selected as a plant and nutrient hydroponic beds were used in a dark room for 100% artificial lighting. Two beds were installed for same distance lighting condition with UCD lamp and Hi-pressure Sodium lamp each and another two beds were installed for same light intensity condition with each type of lamp. After 15 days of cultivation, for both conditions, the yields under UCD lamp were weighed more than that under Hi-pressure Sodium lamp. The result can be analyzed that the spectrum of UCD lamp having near sunlight characteristic is much superior to that of Hi-pressure Sodium lamp having a line spectrum characteristic on yellow and red wavelengths for plant cultivation.

In order to design the oral vaccine delivery system, we prepared the alginate micro spheres containing GFP (green fluorescent protein) as a model drug by spray method. To optimize the preparation conditions of microspheres, we investigated the effects of various parameters including nozzle pressure, nozzle opening angle, and concentrations of sodium alginate and calcium chloride. The prepared microspheres were evaluated by measuring their sizes, loading efficiency, and morphology. The particle size of microspheres was affected by the concentration of sodium alginate and calcium chloride, nozzle pressure, and nozzle opening angle. As the concentration of sodium alginate increased, GFP loading efficiency and particles size of microsphere also increased. However, it was observed to be difficult to spray the sodium alginate solution with concentration greater than 1.5% (w/v), due to high viscosity. The pressure over $3\;kgf/cm^2$ didn't affect the size of particles. As a result, the spraying method enabled us to prepare microspheres for oral vaccine delivery system. In this study, microspheres prepared with 1% (w/v) sodium alginate had greater loading efficiency and better spherical shape.

HPSL(High Pressure Sodium lamp)have attracted much attention in recent years, because they offer high luminous efficiency and very long life. Recently, AC-DC converters have been widely as power factor improvement circuits in the power conversion equipment An application of the ZVT-PWM(Zero Voltage Transition Pulse Width Modulation) boost converter, which has great advantage on miniaturization and high power density, to the power factor improvement circuit of the HPSL inverter are described to identify the power factor correction characteristics of the inverter. In this paper the series-parallel resonant inverter(electronic ballast) for driving a HPS lamp is discussed. Finally, a power factor corrector is cascaded in front of the electronic ballast. Consequently, a high power factor above 0.99 and low THD on the line current can be achieved.
